Page Ranges (separate multiple ranges with commas)

Each comma-separated value creates a separate PDF. Use a hyphen for ranges, or single numbers for individual pages.

Example: "1-3, 5, 8-10" creates 3 PDFs — one for pages 1–3, one for page 5, and one for pages 8–10.

pages per file

A PDF with 10 pages split every 3 pages will produce: pages 1–3, 4–6, 7–9, and page 10 in separate files.

Every single page will be extracted into its own individual PDF file. The output files will be packaged into a ZIP archive for easy download.

What is it

What is a PDF Splitter?

A PDF splitter is a tool that divides a multi-page PDF document into smaller, separate PDF files — without losing any quality or content.

Whether you've received a large PDF report and need to share only specific chapters, or want to extract a few invoices from a bulk export, a PDF splitter saves time and ensures precision. Instead of manually recreating documents, you can define exact pages or ranges and get separate PDFs in seconds.

PDFMaster's PDF splitter runs entirely in your browser using pdf-lib, a powerful JavaScript library. This means your documents are never uploaded to any server — they never leave your device, making it the most private PDF splitter available.

Use it to split contracts, textbooks, financial reports, presentations, legal documents, research papers, and more — completely free, with no watermarks.

⚡ Features

Powerful Splitting Modes

Four flexible ways to split your PDFs — each designed for a different use case.

Custom Range Split

Define precise page ranges like "1-5, 7, 10-15" and generate a separate PDF for each segment. Ideal for extracting specific chapters or sections.

Visual Page Selection

See thumbnail previews of every page and simply click to select the ones you need. Supports select-all, invert, odd/even page shortcuts.

Every N Pages

Automatically divide the document into equal chunks. Perfect for batch processing, reports, or splitting a form-filled PDF where every 2 pages is one record.

Split All Pages

Extract every single page into its own standalone PDF. Perfect for archiving, versioning, or when each page is a unique document like an invoice or certificate.

Zero Data Leakage

Every split operation runs entirely in your browser via JavaScript. Your PDFs never leave your device. No cloud storage, no tracking, completely private.

ZIP Download

Download all split PDFs packaged in a single ZIP archive with one click, or download each file individually. No installation needed.
