Split PDF
Extract pages from a PDF by number or range in your browser — load one file, choose pages, and download.
Runs in your browser. Nothing leaves your device.

- Input: one PDF file; pages by number or range (e.g. 1, 3, 5-8)
- Output: one PDF with your selected pages
- Privacy: processed locally — your PDF never leaves your device
There is no page preview in this version — choose pages by number or range. Also see our merge PDF, compress PDF, image to PDF, private image converter, and image converter pages.
How to verify nothing uploads
You don't have to take our word for it. Two checks, each under a minute:
- Watch the network. Open DevTools (F12, or Cmd + Option + I on macOS), switch to the Network tab, then run the tool. You'll see requests for the page, scripts, ads, and analytics — none of them carrying your files.
- Go offline. Run the tool once so your browser has all the code, then turn on airplane mode or switch off Wi-Fi and run it again. It still works, because the processing happens on your device.
Ads and anonymous analytics make their own requests and never include your files. See our privacy policy for the full list.
FAQ
How do I split a PDF without sending files to a server?
Open this page, select or drop your PDF, enter the page numbers or ranges you want, and click Extract pages. Processing runs locally in your browser — nothing is sent to a server.
How do page ranges work?
Enter individual pages (1, 3, 5), ranges (2-6), or a mix (1, 3, 5-8). Pages are 1-based and ranges are inclusive. Duplicate pages are included once in the order you specify.
Can I extract multiple pages into one PDF?
Yes. Select any combination of pages and ranges and the tool creates a single PDF containing only those pages, in the order you entered them.
Are my PDF files sent to a server?
No. All processing happens in your browser on your device. Your PDF never leaves your device, and no account is required.
Can this split password-protected PDFs?
No. Password-protected or encrypted PDFs cannot be split. Remove the password with another tool first, then extract pages here.
Why is there no page preview?
This version keeps the tool fast and lightweight by skipping page thumbnails. Enter page numbers or ranges directly — for example 1, 3, 5-8 — based on your PDF viewer or print dialog.
