How it works

  1. Step 1

    Drop a PDF

    Drag up to 15 PDFs onto the page, or browse for them. Each can be up to 25 MB.

  2. Step 2

    Choose page ranges

    Type one group per output file, separated by semicolons — "1-5;6-10;11-" makes three files. Presets handle the common cases: one file per page, or split in half.

  3. Step 3

    Download the pieces

    Every output lands in the same batch as an ordinary file — download them one at a time or as a single zip.

How the ranges work

Each group you type becomes its own output file, in the order you write them. A page can appear in more than one group if you want overlapping files, and any page you leave out of every group is simply not included anywhere.

Ranges
"1-5;6-10;11-" — semicolons separate output files, a dash before nothing means "to the end"
Untouched
every page is copied exactly as it is — text, images, structure, nothing re-encoded
Passwords
a password-protected PDF unlocks inline, the same as PDF Slim

Questions

How do I extract one page from a PDF?
Add the PDF and type just that page number, such as "3". You get a new PDF containing only that page, copied exactly as it was.
How do I choose which pages go where?
Type page ranges separated by semicolons — "1-5;6-10;11-" makes three files: pages 1 through 5, 6 through 10, and 11 through the end. A single page like "3" is its own file. Two presets fill this in for you: one file per page, or split the document exactly in half.
Does splitting change the pages themselves?
No. Each output page is copied from the original exactly as it is — same text, fonts, images and structure. Nothing is re-encoded or compressed.
Can I split a password-protected PDF?
Yes. Enter the password when asked, the same as PDF Slim. It is used once to open the file and is never stored.
Can I split several PDFs in one batch?
Yes. Drop up to 15 PDFs and split each one independently — every output lands in the same batch, downloadable one at a time or as a single zip.
