How to split PDF pages

  1. Open the PDF

    Choose the document from your library or upload it, and open Split.

  2. Choose how to split

    By page ranges (for example 1-3, 4-10), every few pages, by file size, or at each bookmark. To take out a few pages, use Extract pages.

  3. Get your new documents

    Each part is saved as its own PDF in your library, ready to open, share or download.

Every way to split

  • Page ranges

    Type the ranges you want and get one document per range.

  • Every few pages

    Split a batch of scanned forms into one file every two, five or ten pages.

  • By file size or bookmarks

    Keep each part under an email size limit, or split a report into its chapters at the bookmarks.

  • Extract pages

    Copy just the pages you need into a new document, leaving the original complete.

  • Organize the rest

    Reorder, rotate, delete, duplicate, crop and resize pages too. Every change is saved as a new version.

Private by design

  • Encrypted and private

    Every file is encrypted before it's stored, and only you and the people you share with can open it.

  • Your original stays safe

    Every change is saved as a new version. The original is never changed, and you can restore it at any time.

  • No watermarks

    Files you save never get a watermark, on any plan, including the free one.

  • Works in your browser

    Nothing to install. Use it on Windows, Mac, Linux, Chromebooks, iPhone, iPad and Android.
