Three ways to split
- Extract pages → 1 PDF: pick pages from anywhere in the document and save them together, in the order you type them.
- Each range → own PDF: every comma-separated part becomes its own file.
- Every page → own PDF: one file per page, useful when each page is a separate certificate or invoice.
Writing page ranges
Separate parts with commas. A single number is one page, 4-9 is a range, 8- runs to the last page and -3 starts at page 1. The tool checks the numbers against the page count and tells you if a range doesn't exist.
Example: splitting a 20-page scan
A 20-page PDF holds three documents: pages 1–5, 6–12 and 13–20. Choose Each range → own PDF and type 1-5, 6-12, 13-. You get three files, named after the original with -p1-5, -p6-12 and -p13-20 on the end, each ready to download.
Tips
- Pages are copied exactly, so quality and selectable text are kept, and each file only contains its own pages.
- To remove a few pages and keep the rest, Delete PDF pages is quicker.
- To see thumbnails before choosing, use Organize PDF.
