YOUR DOCUMENT. YOUR DIVIDING LINE.

Split PDF online —
visual scissors & expressions.

Upload a PDF, mark the split points between its pages or enter precise ranges. Reorder, rotate or delete pages before creating your separate documents.

  • Extract every page into its own PDF
  • Split every 2, 5 or any chosen number of pages
  • Use ranges, individual pages or combined selections
  • Download individual PDFs or one convenient ZIP

Total control over every page.

Visual split points

Every page has a thumbnail and a scissors control after it. Toggle a boundary to add or remove a split point; colored part labels show the result.

Ranges & intervals

Use 1-3, 6, 8 for separate PDFs, 1-3+7 for one combined part, or every:2 for regular intervals. Page numbers refer to the current visible order.

Reorder, rotate & delete

Drag a handle with mouse or touch, or use the earlier/later buttons. Rotate or remove pages, and undo a change before exporting.

Native content stays sharp

Page content is copied without rasterizing. Form appearances become fixed graphics. Local links within a part are remapped; links outside that part are omitted.

Your files stay on your device

Native splitting runs in a browser worker. PDF bytes and generated ZIPs are not sent to an external conversion service.

Download each part, save the complete ZIP or open a selected output in the PDF Editor through a temporary local handoff.

Split PDF: questions & answers

Useful answers. Clear next steps.

At a glance

Upload an unlocked PDF up to 350 MB and 150 pages. Extract every remaining page into its own PDF, click scissors after pages, choose an interval or enter expressions such as 1-3, 6, 8 or every:2. Use + to combine non-adjacent ranges inside one output, for example 1-3+7. Reorder, rotate or delete pages before saving; page numbers follow the current order. Native page content is preserved without rasterizing. Form appearances become fixed content; supported internal links within each part are remapped and outside or unresolved named links are omitted. Download PDFs individually or as a ZIP. The combined output limit is 350 MB, with up to 150 parts and 450 output pages. Processing happens locally under the existing trial/paid-pass access. Registered accounts can start 30 continuous minutes of all-tools access every 3 hours, measured from the previous start. Idle time counts; unused minutes do not roll over. Paid passes provide continuous access.

Can I split a PDF into individual pages?

Yes. Extract every page creates one PDF for each remaining page. Download each result or the complete ZIP. You can also split every 2, 5 or another chosen number of pages.

How do visual cut points and expressions work?

Click scissors after a page to place a split boundary; click again to remove it. In custom ranges, commas create separate outputs: 1-3, 6, 8 creates three PDFs. Use 1-3+7 to combine pages in one PDF, or every:2 for intervals. Visual mode includes all remaining pages; custom ranges can omit pages. Numbers refer to the current page order.

Can I reorder, rotate or delete pages before splitting?

Yes. Drag the page handle with mouse or touch, or use earlier/later buttons. Rotate pages in 90-degree steps, delete unwanted pages and use Undo. Keep at least one page. After reordering, range numbers refer to the current visible order.

Will splitting reduce quality or preserve forms and links?

Pages are copied without rasterizing, preserving native text, images, vector content, crop areas and rotation. Existing form appearances become fixed page graphics. Direct internal links are remapped when their destination is inside the part; outside or unresolved named destinations are omitted. Document bookmarks, signature validity and annotation reply threads are not preserved. Splitting is not a secure-redaction operation; review the output.

What are the file limits?

One unlocked PDF up to 350 MB and 150 pages. Create up to 150 output PDFs, at most 450 combined output pages and 350 MB combined encoded PDF data. Large or repeated ranges can exceed the output budget; choose fewer parts. Your device may have additional memory limits.

Can I split a password-protected PDF?

Unlock it in a PDF application you are authorized to use, then choose the unlocked copy here. Password-protected or damaged PDFs are rejected with an error. No password is uploaded to tooldu.com.

Is it private, and can I continue with another tool?

Splitting and ZIP generation take place in your browser. Files are not sent to a conversion server. Download outputs or open a chosen part in PDF Editor through temporary local storage. The shared 30-minute trial and verified member access pass apply. Registered accounts can start 30 continuous minutes of all-tools access every 3 hours, measured from the previous start. Idle time counts; unused minutes do not roll over. Paid passes provide continuous access.
