Split PDF and Extract Pages

Marukit's Split PDF is a free web tool that pulls pages out of a PDF. Type page ranges such as 1-3, 5 and get each range as its own PDF, or all of them together in one PDF.

Your PDFs are processed inside your browser and are never uploaded to our servers.

About this tool

You can also save every page as a separate PDF. Several files download together as a ZIP. Pages are copied as they are, so text stays sharp.

How to use the Split PDF tool

  1. Choose a PDF. Its number of pages is shown.
  2. Type the pages you want, for example 1-3, 5, 8-10, or choose Every page.
  3. Choose one PDF per range or all ranges in one PDF, and press Split PDF.
  4. Download the PDF, or the ZIP when there are several files.

Not working? Quick fixes

  • 'Page 12 doesn't exist': the PDF has fewer pages. The page count is shown after you choose the file.
  • 'Type page numbers like 1-3, 5': only numbers, commas and dashes are understood.
  • 'This PDF is password-protected': if you're allowed to, save a copy without a password in your PDF app, then choose that copy.
  • 'This PDF couldn't be read': the file may be damaged or only partly downloaded. Download it again and retry.
  • The page stops responding on a phone: use a smaller PDF, or try on a computer.

Limitations

  • Up to 100 MB per PDF. Big files need a lot of memory, so on a phone use smaller files.
  • Password-protected (encrypted) PDFs can't be opened. This tool doesn't remove passwords.
  • One PDF at a time.
  • Bookmarks and fillable form fields are not kept in the new files.

Frequently asked questions

How do I write page ranges?

Separate ranges with commas, for example 1-3, 5, 8-10. A range like 7- runs to the last page. Page 1 is the first page of the file.

How do I extract one page from a PDF?

Type its page number, for example 4, and press Split PDF. You get a PDF with just that page.

Can I split every page into its own PDF?

Yes. Choose Every page and you get one PDF per page, downloaded together as a ZIP.

Are my files uploaded?

No. The PDF is processed by your browser on your device, and nothing is sent to our servers.

Is it free?

Yes, free with no sign-up and no watermark.
