Split PDF online — extract pages or separate a PDF for free

PDFToolsFree lets you split a PDF into separate files or extract specific pages in seconds. Pull a single chapter out of a book, separate an invoice from a long statement, or break a large document into one file per page. Everything runs in your browser — no uploads, no sign-up, and no watermark — so your documents stay completely private.

How to split a PDF

  1. Click Select PDF or drag your file into the drop zone.
  2. Choose a mode — Extract pages to pull out a range, or Split all to save every page as its own file.
  3. For extract mode, type the pages you want, for example 1-3, 5, 8-10.
  4. Press Split, then Download your new PDF (or a ZIP when splitting all pages).

Why use our PDF splitter

Frequently asked questions

How do I extract specific pages from a PDF?

Select your file, choose Extract pages, and type the page numbers or ranges separated by commas — for example 1-3, 5, 8-10. The tool creates a new PDF containing only those pages.

Can I split a PDF into one file per page?

Yes. Choose the Split all mode and the tool will turn every page into its own PDF, then bundle them into a single ZIP file you can download in one click.

What page range format should I use?

Use single numbers and ranges separated by commas. For example, 2 for one page, 4-9 for a range, or 1-3, 5, 8 to combine both. Pages must be between 1 and the total page count.

Is splitting a PDF safe and private?

Completely. The split happens locally in your browser — your file is never uploaded or stored anywhere, so confidential documents stay on your device.

Does it work on a phone?

Yes. The splitter works in any modern mobile browser on Android and iOS.
