What this tool does
The PDF splitter extracts specific pages or page ranges from any PDF and saves them as a new file. Enter page numbers like 1–5, 8, or 10–12 to create a PDF containing only those pages. Splitting runs entirely in your browser — no file is ever uploaded to any server. Use it to share a single chapter from a report, separate invoices from a batch document, extract a specific form page, or remove a cover page before forwarding.

FAQ
Common questions about splitting PDFs
Everything you need to know about extracting pages from PDF files.
Upload your PDF using the tool above. Enter the page numbers you want to keep — for example '1-5' for pages 1 through 5, or '2, 4, 9' for specific pages. Click Extract Pages to download a new PDF containing only your selected pages.
With RapidTools, yes — because your file never leaves your browser. All PDF splitting happens locally using JavaScript. No page content, no file data is ever sent to our servers.
Yes. Just enter the single page number (e.g. '5') in the page range field. You will get a new PDF containing only that one page.
Only the pages you specify are included in the output PDF. All other pages are excluded. Your original file is not modified.
Extract as many pages as needed — from one page to hundreds. The only limit is your browser's memory, which typically handles 50-100+ pages easily.
Yes. Our PDF splitter is fully responsive and works on iOS, Android, and all mobile browsers.
Our PDF splitter supports flexible page range syntax: single pages (e.g., '5'), ranges with hyphens (e.g., '1-10' for pages 1 through 10), and comma-separated combinations (e.g., '1, 3, 5-8, 12'). You can mix and match these formats to extract exactly the pages you need.
Not directly. If you know the password, remove it first with Remove PDF Password, then split the unlocked copy.
No. Extracting pages keeps the original quality: the text, images, formatting, and fonts on the selected pages are copied as they are. This is true PDF page extraction, not a screenshot-based method.
