How to Split a PDF: Two Simple Modes
Our tool offers two flexible modes to fit your needs:
- Extract All Pages: This mode is perfect for breaking down a multi-page document into individual, single-page PDFs. Simply upload your file, select this option, and click "Split PDF." The tool will generate and download each page as a separate file (e.g., `your-file-page-1.pdf`, `your-file-page-2.pdf`, etc.).
- Select a Range: Use this mode to extract a specific selection of pages. You can define single pages, ranges, or a combination. For example:
- To extract pages 1 through 5, type
1-5. - To extract only page 3, type
3. - To extract pages 2, 5, and 8 through 10, type
2, 5, 8-10.
- To extract pages 1 through 5, type
Common Use Cases for Splitting PDFs
- For Professionals: Extract a single chapter from a long report, separate an appendix from a contract, or pull specific invoices from a monthly statement.
- For Students: Isolate a chapter from a large textbook PDF for focused study, or extract just the assignment pages from a course workbook.
- For Personal Use: Split a multi-page scanned document into individual files, such as separating tax forms, bank statements, or personal records.
