How to use
Drop a PDF or click “Choose files”. Thumbnails of all pages appear.
Choose how to split. In “Extract selected pages”, click thumbnails to select (Shift+click selects a range).
In “Split by ranges”, type the ranges you want as files, separated by commas, e.g. 1-3, 4-8, 9-.
Check the list of files to be created and click “Split PDF”.
Download the single file, or each file / all as a ZIP.
What it does
Choose visually
All pages are shown as thumbnails; click to select, Shift+click for ranges, plus select all and invert — no hunting for page numbers.
Four ways to split
Extract selected pages, split by ranges (1-3, 4-8, 9-), every N pages, or into single pages — with a preview of the files that will be created.
Original quality
Pages are copied as-is without re-rendering, so text and images keep their quality and text stays searchable.
No upload
Loading, thumbnails and splitting all run in your browser — safe for confidential documents.
Use cases
- Send only the pages you need from a large PDF
- Separate a batch scan into one PDF per document
- Share a PDF in chapters or fixed-size chunks
- Save every page as its own file

Limits & notes
- Up to 300 MB per file. Very long PDFs may take a while to show all thumbnails (visible pages render first).
- Form fields and digital signatures are not carried over to the split files (bookmarks are, only those that lead to pages in each file). Filled-in values stay as part of the page (no longer editable).
- A link between pages is kept only when its target page lands in the same output file, and is then re-pointed at that page (named destinations are resolved too). A link to a page that goes into a different file is removed, since a link cannot point into another file. So nothing from pages you did not put in a file can end up in it. Links to URLs, notes and highlights are kept.
- To reorder or rotate pages, use “Organize PDF pages”.
Privacy & safety
Loading, thumbnail rendering and splitting all happen in your browser. Your PDF is never sent to or stored on a server.

Images to PDF
Drop images, put them in order and get one PDF. Choose page size, orientation and margins; phone photos are rotated correctly. Images are converted on your device and never uploaded.
Compress PDF
Drop a PDF to cut its size. Only photos and scans are recompressed, so text and graphics stay crisp. Your PDF is processed on your device and never uploaded.
PDF Editor
Lay text (Japanese included), shapes, arrows, a highlighter, freehand drawing and images on top of a PDF, and fill in its form fields. Everything is written as PDF vectors and real text, never as a picture. Rewriting the original text and true redaction are not possible.
PDF Extract
Take the text, images, links, attachments, form values and bookmarks embedded in a PDF, for the pages you choose. Images stay as embedded (JPEG untouched). Your PDF never leaves your device.
Extract PDF Pages
Gather just the pages you need from one or more PDFs into a single PDF (or one PDF per source file in a ZIP). Pick by thumbnail, range or text search, and leave out blank pages automatically. Your PDFs are processed on your device and never uploaded.
Merge PDF
Drop several PDFs, put them in order, and get one PDF. You can also choose which pages to take from each file. Nothing is uploaded — merging happens on your device.
