Two ways to split
- Extract selected pages — creates one new PDF containing only the pages you list. Use it to send a single chapter, remove a cover page or keep just the signed page of a contract.
- Split every page — creates a separate one-page PDF for each page, which you can download together as a ZIP. Handy for invoices or certificates that were scanned into one file.
How to write page ranges
| You type | Result |
|---|---|
3 | Only page 3 |
1-4 | Pages 1, 2, 3 and 4 |
1-3, 7, 10-12 | Pages 1–3, then 7, then 10–12 |
5- | Page 5 to the last page |
4-1 | Pages 4, 3, 2, 1 (reverse order) |
Pages appear in the new file in the order you type them, so you can also use this tool to reorder or duplicate pages.
Quality and content
Splitting copies pages without any changes: text remains selectable, images keep their quality and the page size stays the same. To delete pages, simply extract all the others — for example 1-4, 6- removes page 5.
Next steps: join extracted parts with merge PDF, or turn a page into a picture with PDF to JPG.
