How do you split a PDF into separate files by page range (without uploading it)?
To split a PDF, you decide which pages go into each new file and copy just those pages into fresh documents — the original is never changed. The quickest way is to type page ranges: list the pages and spans you want, separated by commas, using a dash for a run, like 1-3,7,9-12. That makes one new PDF per group — pages 1 through 3 in the first file, page 7 in the second, and pages 9 through 12 in the third — so a single line can break a long scan into the exact sections you need. If you'd rather chop a document into equal pieces, split every N pages instead: “every 2 pages” turns a 10-page file into five two-page PDFs. Because splitting only copies pages, it's instant and lossless, and it never has to reach a server — the whole job can run right in your browser, so a private contract, tax form, or medical record stays on your device. The tool below does exactly that: pick a PDF, type your ranges, and download the split files with nothing ever uploaded.
Split a PDF
Pick a PDF and pull out the pages you need. It’s split right here in your browser — the file is never uploaded.
or drop a PDF anywhere in this box
Same range parser as the app (type “1-3,7,9-12”) — split entirely in your browser with nothing uploaded.
Take it with you
The full PageSplit app adds a live thumbnail grid so you can see and tap the exact pages to pull out, drag-to-reorder to rebuild a document in a new order, a local recent-files list, and one-tap Share or Save to Files — all fully on-device, with your originals never modified and nothing ever uploaded.
What it is
PageSplit takes a PDF apart. Import any document, see every page as a thumbnail, and extract the pages you need, split by page ranges or into equal chunks, or drag pages into a new order, then save or share the result named after your original.
Why we built it
Splitting or extracting PDF pages is something people constantly need, yet most tools upload the document to a server or hide the basics behind a subscription. That leaves room for a cheap, fast, fully on-device utility that does this one job well and never touches the network.
