Split PDF

Split a PDF into individual pages or ranges, or extract specific pages.

runs entirely in your browser

Frequently asked questions

What notation can I use in the input field?

A single page ('5'), a range ('3-7'), or multiple separated by commas ('1, 3-5, 8'). Spaces around commas or dashes are fine. Overlapping ranges in remove-mode are auto-deduped.

What's the difference between split and remove?

Split: you supply ranges, each range becomes a separate PDF (single output or a ZIP). Remove: you supply pages to drop, and what's left comes back as a single PDF.

Is my PDF uploaded?

No. pdf-lib runs in your browser; parsing + assembly happen locally. No server, no log. Open the Network tab during use, not a byte leaves your device.

Does this work on password-protected PDFs?

No. Encrypted PDFs are rejected on read. Got a PDF with owner-password restrictions? Try 'Remove PDF password' (coming soon) first, then this tool.
