Need to divide a large PDF into smaller files? This free Split PDF tool lets you separate a document into multiple PDFs in just a few clicks. Split every page into its own file, create files from selected page ranges or divide a document into smaller sections. Your original PDF remains unchanged, with no sign up and no added watermark.

Split PDFs Your Way

Different documents need different types of splitting, so the tool gives you flexible options. You can create a separate PDF for every page, which is useful for scanned documents, forms or individual records. You can also split by page ranges, such as pages 1–10, 11–20, or any custom range you choose. Add multiple ranges at once and the tool creates a separate PDF for each section automatically. If you only need a few specific pages from different parts of the document, use the Extract PDF Pages tool to select those pages and save them together in one new PDF.

Your Original PDF Stays Unchanged

Splitting a PDF never edits your original file. The tool creates new PDF files while keeping your uploaded document exactly as it is. This makes it ideal for important files such as contracts, reports, or archived documents. Each new PDF keeps the original formatting, searchable text, embedded fonts, images, and overall quality. Nothing is recreated or reduced during the process.If you want to combine the split files again later, you can use a Merge PDF tool to join them back together in any order.

Split PDFs Securely on Any Device

The tool works directly in your web browser, so there's no software to install and no account to create. Your files are transferred through a secure encrypted connection and are automatically removed from the server shortly after processing to help protect your privacy. It works smoothly on Windows, Mac, Linux, Android, and iPhone, allowing you to split PDFs anytime from your computer, tablet, or mobile device. If one of your new PDF files is larger than expected, you can use a Compress PDF tool to reduce its file size before sharing or storing it.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

How do I split a PDF into separate files?
Upload your PDF, then choose how you want to split it: into separate pages, fixed-size sections, or specific page ranges. The tool creates new PDF files based on your selection and provides them for download. Your original PDF remains unchanged throughout the process.
Can I extract just a range of pages from a PDF?
Enter a page range, such as pages 5 to 12, and the tool creates a new PDF containing only those pages. You can add multiple ranges, and each range will be saved as a separate file. If you need to select a few individual pages from different parts of the document, the extract PDF pages tool is a better option.
Does splitting a PDF reduce quality?
Splitting keeps the selected pages exactly as they are in the original PDF. Text remains selectable, images keep their quality, and nothing is re-rendered or compressed. Each new file contains only the pages you choose, while fonts, links, and layout stay the same.
Is splitting a PDF online free and private?
The tool is free to use with no signup and no watermark on the final PDF. Your file is uploaded securely through an encrypted connection and automatically deleted from the server after processing. Your original PDF is never changed, so you always keep full control of your file.
What is the difference between splitting into pages and by range?
Splitting into individual pages creates a separate PDF for every page, which is useful when each page needs to be handled separately. Splitting by page range keeps selected groups of pages together in one file, which is helpful for extracting chapters or specific sections from a large document. Choose the option that best fits your needs.
Can I split a large PDF on mobile?
The split tool works in any modern browser on Android, iPhone, and desktop without installing anything. Large PDF files may take a little longer to upload and process depending on your internet speed. After splitting, the new PDF files can be downloaded directly to your device. The tool works the same way on all major desktop systems.
