How do I extract specific pages from a PDF?

Upload your PDF, type the page numbers or ranges you want (e.g. '1-3, 5, 8') in the Pages to Extract field, then click Extract Pages. The tool creates a new PDF with only those pages.

Can I split a PDF into individual pages?

Yes. Enter each page number separated by commas (e.g. '1, 2, 3') or use the All preset and extract them sequentially. For batch splitting, run the tool once per range you need.

Is my PDF uploaded to a server?

No. Everything runs inside your browser. Your PDF is never transmitted to any server, making this tool safe for confidential legal, financial, and medical documents.

How do I separate odd and even pages?

Click the Odd or Even quick-select button to auto-fill the page range, then click Extract Pages. This is useful for re-ordering double-sided scans.

Can I extract the first half or second half of a PDF?

Yes. Click the 1st Half or 2nd Half button to auto-select the relevant page range, then extract.

What is a PDF Splitter?

A PDF Splitter is a document extraction tool that allows you to separate a large, multi-page PDF into smaller, individual documents. You can extract specific pages (like pages 3-5 of a contract) or burst an entire document into single-page files.

How to Split a PDF Online

Upload your file — drag and drop your large PDF into the browser.
Select pages to extract — click on the individual page thumbnails you want to extract, or enter a page range (e.g., 2-4, 7).
Extract — click the "Split PDF" button.
Download — save the extracted pages as a new, smaller PDF document directly to your device.

Examples / Use Cases

Use Case 1: Extracting Signature Pages

If someone sends you a 50-page legal contract but you only need to sign and return the last page, you can use this tool to isolate page 50, sign it, and send it back without transmitting the entire document.

Use Case 2: Sending Specific Chapters

Teachers often have large PDF textbooks but only want to share a single chapter with their students for an assignment. The splitter allows them to extract just the relevant 15 pages for distribution.

Advantages and Limitations

Advantages: The extraction process runs instantly and 100% locally in your browser. This means you do not have to wait for a 100MB textbook to upload to a cloud server before you can start extracting pages.
Limitations: If your original PDF is encrypted with a password, you must unlock it before the splitter can extract the pages.

Privacy & Security

Your large, sensitive documents are handled with absolute privacy. Using local WebAssembly technology, the PDF is processed entirely on your local machine. No document data is ever sent across the network.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does splitting the PDF reduce its quality? ▼

No. Splitting a PDF simply copies the exact page data and resources into a new file. There is no recompression or quality loss during this process.

Can I extract multiple non-consecutive pages? ▼

Yes. By using the visual thumbnail selector, you can click on any combination of pages (like page 1, page 5, and page 8) to combine them into the new output file.
