Split PDF into Separate Pages, Free
Split a PDF into separate pages free: every page as its own file, a new file every few pages, or exactly the page ranges you type. The full document never leaves your device.
Fit Meter
Settings appear once you add a PDF.
Each range becomes its own PDF. “7-” means page 7 to the end.
Still going. Your own device is doing this, so a long scan or a big batch takes as long as it takes — and none of it is being uploaded.
Bytes of your files sent anywhere: 0 B · nothing leaves this tab
Every request this page makes is listed as it happens. You’ll see our own code loading, and for some formats a codec engine, but never your file going out.
- Waiting for network activity…
Check it yourself: open your browser’s developer tools on the Network tab, or turn off Wi-Fi once the page has loaded. The tools keep working.

Why it doesn’t upload
People split PDFs to send only part of a sensitive document — one page of a contract, one month of statements. Uploading the whole file to split it defeats the point. Here, the full PDF never leaves your device.
Check it in your browser’s Network tabWorth knowing
- Password-protected PDFs need their password removed first.
- Bookmarks and links pointing to pages in other parts stop working in the split files.
- To split by file size, bookmarks or a word on the page, use the dedicated split tools.
Under the hood
What happens to your file
Splitting copies page objects into new documents without touching their contents: each part is a real PDF with the original text, fonts and images, not a print of them. Page ranges are read from what you type (1-3, 5, 8-) and each group becomes one file.

Questions
How do I split a PDF into separate pages?
Choose Every page and press Split PDF. Each page becomes its own PDF, and you can save them all at once as a ZIP.
How do I save just one page from a PDF?
Choose By page ranges and type the page number, or use Extract PDF Pages to click the pages you want.
Can I split a PDF by page range?
Yes. Type ranges like 1-5, 6-10, 11- and each becomes a separate file. Ranges can overlap or skip pages.
Does splitting lower the quality?
No. Pages are copied exactly as they are in the original — nothing is re-rendered or recompressed.
How do I split a PDF that’s too big to email?
Use Split PDF by Size: type the limit and it makes as few parts as possible that each fit.
