Split a PDF

Pull the pages you need out of a PDF, or save every page as its own file.

Files stay on your device.

How it works

  1. Add a PDF.
  2. Type the pages to keep, such as 1-3, 5, 8-.
  3. Extract them into one PDF, or save each page separately as a ZIP.

Two ways to split a PDF

Extract pages: type the pages you want and get one new PDF. Save each page: every page becomes its own PDF inside a ZIP file.

Writing page ranges

  • 1-3 means pages 1 to 3.
  • 5 means page 5 only.
  • 8- means page 8 to the end.
  • -4 means the first four pages.
  • 1-3, 7, 10- combines several ranges in one go.

Order and deleting pages

Pages appear in the new file in the order you type them, so 5, 1, 3 creates a PDF with those pages in that order. To delete a page, list the pages you want to keep. For example, to remove page 3 from a 10-page file, enter 1-2, 4-.

Common uses

  • Send only the relevant pages of a long document.
  • Remove a cover page or a blank page.
  • Pull one form out of a bundle of scanned files.
  • Put pages in a different order.

Notes

Your original file is not changed. Password-protected PDFs cannot be split. After you add a file, the page count is shown so you can check your ranges.
