Split a PDF into separate files — free, no watermark

Break one PDF into several smaller ones: export every page as its own file, or type custom page ranges. Everything happens in your browser — nothing is uploaded.

How to split pdf

  1. 1Drop your PDF into the box below or click to pick a file.
  2. 2Choose ‘Every page’ to get one PDF per page, or ‘Custom ranges’ and type something like 1-3, 5, 8-10.
  3. 3Hit ‘Split PDF’ — each part downloads instantly as its own file.

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.
