Splitting a PDF is how you turn a 40-page scan into just the two pages a client asked for, separate chapters of a report, or peel an invoice out of a bundled statement. pdfia handles both the one-file-per-page case and precise custom ranges.
Upload-based tools make you send the whole document to their servers just to keep two pages of it. Here the entire operation runs locally — close the tab and no copy of your file exists anywhere but your own machine.
Frequently asked questions
+ - Is my PDF uploaded to split it?
No. The split runs entirely in your browser — the file never touches a server, so it's safe for contracts, bank statements, and anything confidential.
+ - How do custom ranges work?
Type comma-separated groups like 1-3, 5, 8-10. Each group becomes its own PDF: pages 1–3 in the first file, page 5 in the second, pages 8–10 in the third.
+ - Is there a page or size limit?
No hard limits. Very large documents are constrained only by your device's memory, never by a quota or paywall.
+ - Does splitting reduce quality?
No. Pages are copied exactly as they are — text stays selectable and images keep their original resolution.
