FAQ
Split PDF questions
Can I extract just a few pages from a PDF?
Yes. Click the page thumbnails you want to keep and they go into the new file. Shift-click to select a whole range.
How do I select a range of pages?
Click the first page, then shift-click the last one to select everything in between. The Select all, First half, Second half, Odd pages, and Even pages buttons are shortcuts for common selections.
What if the new file is still too large?
After splitting, you can compress the smaller PDF before uploading or sending it.
Is my file uploaded to a server?
No. Splitting runs entirely in your browser. Your PDF is never uploaded to a server, and nothing is stored.
