How to Split PDF Files

1

Upload PDF

Select a PDF to generate page previews locally in your browser. Supported extraction jobs run locally; if local processing cannot finish, files automatically use temporary server processing over HTTPS.

2

Choose Split Method

Use visual selection, page ranges, or extract all pages individually. Visual thumbnails load in small batches to keep the page responsive.

Review the output summary, create the result, and download one PDF or a ZIP archive as indicated.

Three Ways to Split Your PDF

Visual Selection

See up to the first 100 page thumbnails and click to select the ones you want. For later pages in a larger document, use Page Ranges.

Tip: Click the magnifying glass to preview full-size, then use the arrow buttons to reorder selected pages.

Page Ranges

Enter ranges like "1-5, 8-10, 15" to extract specific sections. Each range becomes a separate PDF file.

Example: "1-3, 5-7" creates 2 PDFs - one with pages 1-3, another with pages 5-7.

Single Pages

Extract every page as a separate PDF file. Great for breaking a document into individual pages for distribution.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I split a PDF without losing quality?

Page content is copied instead of rasterized, but complex features such as bookmarks, links, forms, annotations, and signatures still need verification in the new file.

Will my files be stored?

Visual previews and supported extraction jobs run in your browser. If local processing cannot finish, files are automatically uploaded over HTTPS for temporary processing. The processing dialog shows the switch and lets you cancel. PDFMK does not keep an account-based document history. See Security & File Handling.

Can I reorder pages when splitting?

Yes! In Visual Selection mode, you can reorder selected pages before creating the new PDF.

What if my PDF has many pages?

Thumbnails load in batches, with visual selection available for the first 100 pages. For later pages, use Page Ranges or Single Pages. If a large or complex PDF fails, try a smaller copy or an approved desktop tool.

Need help translating printed page numbers into PDF positions? Read the page-range guide. To rearrange a complete document instead, organize its PDF pages; to join several documents, merge PDF files.
