How to Split a PDF into Separate Pages
Sometimes you only need part of a PDF — a single chapter from an ebook, one section of a contract, or a few pages to send to a colleague. Splitting lets you pull out exactly what you need and leave the rest behind. Here's how to do it for free, without uploading your document anywhere.
Split a PDF in your browser
Our Split PDF tool extracts a range of pages into a brand-new PDF — and it does the whole thing on your device. Your original file is never sent to a server, which keeps private documents private.
Step-by-step
- Open the Split PDF tool.
- Add your PDF — it will show you how many pages it has.
- Enter the first and last page you want to keep.
- Click Extract & Download to save the new, shorter PDF.
Common ways people split PDFs
- Extract one page: set "From" and "To" to the same number.
- Grab a chapter: enter the start and end pages of that section.
- Remove pages instead: if it's easier to delete a few pages than keep a range, use Delete Pages.
