Split PDF

Cut a document into separate files, or pull out just the pages you need. Pages are copied across untouched, so nothing loses quality. Your file never leaves this device.

How to split a PDF

  1. Drop the PDF onto the box above, or press “Choose a PDF file”.
  2. Keep “By page range” and type the ranges you want, such as 1-3, 5, 8-10. Each range becomes its own PDF. Or choose “Every page separately”.
  3. If you like, click the page previews to add or skip pages, or tick the box to put every listed page into one PDF instead.
  4. Press “Split PDF”, then “Download all as ZIP”, or save each file on its own.

What Split PDF does

Cutting one PDF into several: a bound volume into chapters, a batch scan into one file per document, or just the pages somebody asked for out of a much longer report.

What it does

  • Splits by page range, or gives you every page as its own file
  • Takes ranges as you would write them, like 1-3, 7, 12-14
  • Bundles multiple results into a single zip so you get one download

What it does not do

  • Change the pages themselves, which are copied over at full quality
  • Touch your original file
  • Reorder anything; that is Organize PDF

Need to send this to someone?

Our sister site QRSansar hosts a document and gives you a short link and a QR code for it. That is handy for WhatsApp, a slide, a poster or a printed handout, and it avoids attachment size limits entirely. You can swap the file later and the link and QR code keep working.

Worth being clear about the difference: that is a hosting service, so your file is uploaded to it. Everything on PDFsansar stays on your device; sharing is the one job that cannot.

Split PDF: common questions

Can I pull out just a few pages?

Yes. Give it individual pages and ranges, like 1-3, 7, 12-14, and you get only those. You can also click pages to select them if you would rather see what you are choosing.

Can I split a document into single pages?

Yes, that is one of the options. A 40-page file becomes 40 one-page PDFs.

How do the results arrive?

A single result downloads as one PDF. Several results are bundled into a zip, so you get one download instead of twenty.

Are the extracted pages the same quality as the original?

Yes. The pages are copied across untouched rather than re-rendered, so nothing is lost.
