About the PDF Splitter
Our free PDF splitter lets you select and extract any pages from a PDF, directly in your browser. Upload your file and every page renders as a visual thumbnail — click the ones you want, leave the rest. No typing ranges, no guessing page numbers.
Once you've selected your pages, you have two output options. Merge into one PDF combines all selected pages into a single download — useful for pulling a chapter or section out of a larger document. Uncheck that option and each selected page downloads as its own separate PDF file instead.
This is useful any time you need to isolate part of a document — extracting a signed page from a contract, removing a cover sheet, pulling slides out of a presentation saved as PDF, or distributing individual pages to different people.
All processing uses the open-source pdf-lib library and runs entirely in your browser. Your PDF is never uploaded anywhere — it stays on your device throughout.
Need the opposite? Merge PDF combines multiple PDFs into one. Remove PDF Pages deletes pages you don't need. PDF to JPG converts each page to an image.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I extract just one page from a PDF?
Yes. Click a single page thumbnail to select it, then download. You'll get a one-page PDF. There's no minimum selection — one page is perfectly fine.
Can I download the extracted pages as separate files?
Yes. By default the selected pages merge into one output PDF. Uncheck the 'Merge into one PDF' option before downloading and each selected page will download as its own individual file instead.
Will splitting a PDF affect the quality of the pages?
No. Pages are copied directly from the source file without re-encoding anything. Images, fonts, and vector graphics are preserved exactly as they appear in the original. The extraction is completely lossless.
Can I split a password-protected PDF?
If the PDF requires a password to open, you'll need to unlock it first. Most PDF readers let you print to PDF once unlocked, which removes the password. Owner-restricted PDFs usually work without any extra steps.
