FAQ
Can I split by page range?
Yes. Enter any combination such as 1-3, 5, 7-end. The tool accepts individual pages, continuous ranges and mixed notation.
Is there a page limit?
No page limit. PDFs up to 100 MB are supported regardless of page count.
Can I extract just one page from a PDF?
Yes. Enter a single page number (e.g. "5") to extract just that page as a standalone PDF.
Do I get one file per page or a single PDF?
Both options: extract specific ranges as individual files, or use "extract all pages" to get every page as a separate PDF available as a ZIP download.
Does splitting reduce PDF quality?
No. Pages are extracted directly without re-encoding. All text, images, fonts and annotations are preserved at full quality.
Can I split a password-protected PDF?
No directly. Use our Unlock PDF tool first, then split the unlocked file.
