Split a PDF by page range

On your device

PDF files only

Splitting by range is the right choice when one PDF actually holds several documents: a textbook with chapters, a court bundle with separate exhibits, or a batch scan with five contracts in a row. Instead of cutting at fixed intervals, you tell PDFEdit exactly where each part starts and ends — for example 1–12, 13–30 and 31–45 — and each range becomes its own PDF, with pages kept in their original order. Use + Add range for as many parts as you need, and the tool shows how many documents it will create before you split. Download the files one by one or together as a ZIP. Tip: open the PDF in any viewer first and note the page where each document begins. Splitting runs in your browser, so the PDF isn't uploaded. Free, no sign-up, no watermark.

FAQ

How do I split a scanned batch into separate documents?

Note the page where each document starts, then enter one range per document, for example 1-4, 5-9 and 10-12.

I only need one range. Should I use this?

If you just want one part, Extract pages is simpler: it gives you a single PDF with only those pages.

Can I download all the parts at once?

Yes. Click Download all (.zip) to get every range in one ZIP file.

Does splitting change the page order?

No. Pages keep their original order within each range.

Is my PDF uploaded?

No. The split happens in your browser.
