Split a PDF online

Pull a few pages, or a whole section, out of a PDF into a new file. It runs in your browser, so the document stays on your device.

Open the board Free. No sign-up. Your files stay on your device.

How to do it

  1. Open the board and drop your PDF onto it.
  2. Select the PDF card and open the Pages tab.
  3. Type the pages you want, for example 1-3 or 2, 5, 8-10.
  4. Create the new PDF, then download it. Repeat with another range for each part you need.

What you get

The new PDF is built from the original pages, so text stays selectable and the quality does not change. Each run makes one file from the range you type. To split a document into several parts, run it once per range. If you would rather have every page as a picture, use the PDF to JPG tool.

When to use it

Use it to send only the relevant pages of a long document, pull a single chapter out of a book, or cut a scanned bundle into separate files such as one per person or one per invoice.

Tips for better results

  • Type ranges such as 1-3 or 5,7,9-12. Page numbers are counted from the first page of the PDF.
  • Each run makes one file. For several parts, run it once for each range.
  • The new file is built from the original pages, so text stays selectable.
  • Check the page count of the result before you send it, especially after typing a long range.

Questions

Is my PDF uploaded anywhere?

No. The pages are copied into a new file on your own device.

Does splitting lower the quality?

No. The pages are copied as they are, so text and images stay the same.

Can I split into many files at once?

Each run creates one file from the page range you type. For several parts, run it once for each range.
