How do I write page ranges?

Separate ranges with commas and use a hyphen for a span — for example 1-3, 5, 8-12 produces three files.

Can I get every page as its own file?

Yes. Choose "Every page" and each page becomes a separate PDF inside the ZIP.

What if I enter a page that does not exist?

The tool tells you which range is out of bounds and shows the document's real page count so you can correct it.

No. Splitting runs entirely in your browser.

Frequently Asked Questions

Privacy and security

Your file is read directly from your device and processed in your browser. It is never uploaded to a server, so there is no copy for us to keep, share or lose. Closing the tab discards everything. If you want to check this yourself: open your browser’s developer tools, switch to the Network tab, and use the tool — you will see no request carrying your file or input leave the page.
