What this tool does

Pick the pages you need and get a brand-new PDF with just those pages, in their order. PDF Split reads the document in your browser with pdf-lib, so the file is never uploaded. Type a range like 1-3, a list like 1,3,5, or a mix like 1-3,7.

Need the opposite? Combine files with PDF merge, or shrink images before a PDF with Image compress.

What you can use it for

  • Pull a single chapter or section out of a long PDF.
  • Extract the pages you need to send instead of the whole document.
  • Split a scanned batch into the pages that matter.
  • Reorder pages by listing them in the order you want.

How to use it

  1. Drop or choose a PDF file.
  2. Check the number of pages detected.
  3. Type the pages or ranges to extract, for example 1-3,7.
  4. Generate the new PDF and download it.

Everything runs inside your browser. No file is uploaded to any server. See more tools in this field.

Frequently asked questions

Is my PDF uploaded to a server?

No. The document is read and rebuilt entirely in your browser with pdf-lib. Nothing is uploaded, which keeps private or sensitive PDFs on your device.

What range formats can I use?

A single page (5), a range (1-3), a comma list (1,3,5) or any mix (1-3,7). Pages keep the order you list them in, so you can reorder while extracting.

Why do I get a range error?

It means the range is empty, malformed, or points to a page that does not exist. Check the detected page count and make sure every number is between 1 and that total.

Does it work with encrypted PDFs?

It tries to read them ignoring basic encryption, but a password-protected or heavily restricted PDF may fail to open. In that case, remove the protection first and try again.
