Split a PDF or Extract Pages: Fully Private, No Upload

How the PDF splitter works

This tool uses a modern client-side PDF engine to load your document entirely in the browser. There is no upload, no server, and no risk of exposing sensitive documents to third-party systems. Once the PDF is loaded, the tool identifies the page indices you specify and copies those pages into a brand-new PDF document.

Two modes explained

1. Split by Page Range (e.g., “1-3”)

This mode extracts a continuous block of pages. For example: 2-5 will produce a new PDF containing pages 2, 3, 4, and 5.

2. Extract Specific Pages (e.g., “1,4,7”)

This mode lets you pick exact pages in any order. It is perfect for:

• Submitting selected pages from a transcript
• Extracting only signature pages from a contract
• Removing unnecessary annexes

Why client-side PDF splitting is safer

Most online PDF tools require full upload, processing, storage, and then eventual deletion. Even if a tool promises auto-deletion, the document still exists temporarily on a server. With this browser-based splitter:

• Your file never leaves your device.
• There is no upload or external storage.
• Everything is memory-based and wiped when you close the tab.

Best practices when splitting PDFs

• Always review page numbers: PDFs start at page 1, not zero.
• Use extract mode when pages are not consecutive.
• For scanned PDFs, splitting helps reduce file size before compression.
• Use the compressor afterwards if the final document is still large.

FAQ

Will splitting reduce quality?

No: the original page data is copied exactly into a new PDF.

Can I split large PDFs?

Yes. Browser memory is the only limit. Files up to 100 to 200 MB usually work fine.

Does the tool support multiple ranges?

Use Extract mode for multiple non-continuous pages.

Do you store my documents?

No. Everything runs locally on your device.
