About the Split PDF
A PDF splitter divides one PDF into two separate files at a page you choose: part 1 holds pages 1 to N and part 2 the rest. This tool splits in your browser without uploading the file; downloading both parts needs a free account.
This tool splits any PDF into two parts at whichever page you choose: everything up to and including that page becomes part one, everything after becomes part two, and both are ready to download. That's useful when a single PDF is really two documents stuck together — a contract and its annexures, a report and its appendix, a scanned bundle that should have been two separate files.
Choose your file, see the total page count, and enter the page where the split should happen — page 5 of a 12-page document, for instance, produces a 5-page part one and a 7-page part two. There's no limit on how large the source file can be beyond what your browser's memory allows, and because splitting happens entirely client-side, confidential documents never leave your device.
This is the simplest of the page-management tools here; for more control — pulling out a specific non-contiguous set of pages, or removing particular pages rather than splitting at one point — use the extract or remove-pages tools instead. All three share the same private, in-browser processing.
Splitting is often the first step before two documents go their separate ways — one half to accounting, the other to legal, or one part filed and the other emailed on. Because both output files are generated locally and downloaded straight to your device, there's no server copy of either half sitting around afterward, and no waiting on an upload before you can download anything back.
Frequently asked questions
- Can I split a PDF into more than two parts?
- This tool splits into exactly two parts at one chosen page. For extracting several non-contiguous ranges, use the Extract PDF Pages tool, which supports comma-separated ranges like "1-3, 7, 10-12".
- Is my file uploaded anywhere?
- No — splitting runs entirely in your browser using pdf-lib. The file never leaves your device.
- What happens to bookmarks and links after splitting?
- Page content and formatting are preserved exactly; internal links or bookmarks that point across the split point may no longer resolve correctly, since the target page ends up in the other file.
