Split PDF — Frequently Asked Questions
Is the Split PDF tool free and without watermark?
Yes — it's completely free to use, requires no signup, and your output PDFs have no watermark. This page is supported by ads only.
How do I select specific pages or page ranges?
Use a simple range format like
1-3,5,9-12
. Leave it empty to split the whole document into separate pages.Can I split one PDF into one file per page?
Yes. If you leave the range empty, we generate a separate PDF for each page. You can then Download All (ZIP) or download pages individually.
Will the quality change after splitting?
No — splitting doesn't re-encode content. Each extracted page is an exact copy of the original page from your PDF.
Are my files private and secure?
Uploads travel over HTTPS and are stored temporarily in a private temp folder. Use Split Another PDF to clear the session instantly; old temp files are cleaned regularly.
Does this work on iPhone and Android?
Yes. The tool is fully mobile-friendly. Tap Choose PDF, enter a range if needed, split, then preview, download, or share the page PDFs.
Can I split a password-protected PDF?
Locked PDFs can't be processed unless you remove the password first in your PDF app. Once unlocked, upload the file here and split normally.
What if the file is very large?
Large PDFs may take longer to upload/process. If it fails, try splitting in smaller ranges (e.g.,
1-50
, then 51-100
) or consider converting to images first via PDF to JPG.How do I recombine pages after splitting?
Download the pages you need and then combine them using our Merge PDF tool to create a custom-ordered document.
How do I share an extracted page?
Use the Share button under any page. On supported devices it shares the actual PDF file; otherwise a secure link is copied to your clipboard.
