Separate one page or a whole set into independent PDF files.
or drop your file here
Click the red Select PDF File button or drag and drop your file directly onto the page. No account, no sign-up, no email required. The file opens instantly in your browser and never leaves your device.
Pick All pages to separate every single page into its own individual PDF file — ideal for large documents. Or pick Custom range and type the pages you need, such as 1–3, 5, 8–10, to extract only the pages that matter to you.
Click the Split PDF button and your files download straight to your device within seconds. No waiting, no queue, no processing spinner. The split happens locally so results are immediate regardless of your internet speed.
You have a 40-page report but only need to send pages 5–8 to a colleague. Instead of sharing the entire document, extract just those pages and send a clean, focused file. Saves the recipient time and keeps confidential sections private.
Email attachments, upload portals and cloud storage often have file size limits. Splitting a large PDF into smaller chunks lets you stay under those limits without compressing and losing quality.
Many official documents — qualification certificates, invoices, contracts — arrive bundled together in one PDF. Splitting lets you extract the specific page you need to submit or file without handing over the entire document.
Split a PDF into individual pages, then use the Merge PDF tool to recombine them in a completely different order. This two-step process gives you full control over how your final document is structured.
If a PDF contains blank pages, cover sheets or sections you do not need, splitting lets you extract only the pages you want to keep. The result is a cleaner, more professional document.
Long PDFs such as books, manuals or academic papers are easier to work with as separate chapter files. Split by page range to create individual section files you can share, annotate or archive independently.
Most PDF splitters upload your file to a remote server, process it, and send it back. SlashPDF is different — everything happens inside your own browser using JavaScript. Your PDF is never transmitted anywhere, which means zero risk of data leaks or privacy exposure.
There is no registration wall, no free trial, no "3 tasks per day" restriction. Open the page, split your PDF, close the tab. That is all. SlashPDF is permanently free with no hidden charges and no upgrade prompts.
SlashPDF runs on Chrome, Safari, Firefox and Edge on iPhone, Android, Windows, Mac and Linux. No app to install, no plugin to enable, no software to update. If your browser is modern, SlashPDF works.
Yes. Select Custom range mode and type a single page number — for example, just 3. SlashPDF will extract that one page and download it as a standalone PDF file.
Yes. In Custom range mode, separate individual page numbers with commas — for example, type 1, 4, 7. You can also combine ranges and individual pages, such as 1–3, 5, 8–10. All selected pages will be extracted into a single PDF.
No. SlashPDF runs entirely inside your browser using JavaScript and WebAssembly libraries. Your file is never transmitted to any server. It stays on your device from start to finish, which means it is also faster — there is no upload or download wait time.
No. SlashPDF reads your file in memory and writes brand new output files. The original file stored on your device is never opened, modified or deleted. You can use the original again at any time.
There is no fixed limit set by SlashPDF. Since processing happens in your browser, the practical limit depends on your device's available memory. Most PDFs — including large ones over 100MB — work without any issue on a modern laptop or desktop.
No. SlashPDF copies pages exactly as they are without re-encoding, re-rendering or compressing anything. The extracted pages are bit-for-bit identical to the originals. Fonts, images, vector graphics and formatting are fully preserved.
PDF files with edit or print restrictions can usually still be split. Fully encrypted PDFs that require a password to open cannot be processed until the password is entered, as SlashPDF cannot access the content without it.
Yes. SlashPDF is fully responsive and works on iPhone, iPad, Android phones and tablets. Open your browser, go to slashpdf.com/split-pdf/, select your file from your device storage and download the results — no app installation needed.
