What Split PDF does
Split PDF turns one PDF file, page ranges and an output filename into a downloadable PDF file through the PDF page-range extraction workflow. The PDF is uploaded and the selected pages are copied into a new PDF on the server.
Extract valid selected pages from one PDF into one new PDF.
Split PDF turns one PDF file, page ranges and an output filename into a downloadable PDF file through the PDF page-range extraction workflow. The PDF is uploaded and the selected pages are copied into a new PDF on the server.
Split PDF accepts exactly one PDF file. The uploaded PDF is limited to 12 MB and the ranges field cannot be empty.
Split PDF writes one PDF containing every valid selected page; it does not create one file per range. Comma-separated numbers and inclusive ranges such as 1-3, 5 are expanded in entered order. Duplicate page numbers are removed, page numbers below 1 are ignored, and numbers above the source page count are skipped. The request fails if no valid page remains.
Split PDF does not target a smaller size or expose compression settings; it writes a new PDF from the selected imported pages. Split PDF has no DPI or image-quality control and does not deliberately rasterize the selected pages.
Split PDF creates a new PDF from the visible content of each page. When using Split PDF, interactive forms, comments, bookmarks, attachments, document information, links, and digital signatures may not be kept. Always open and check the PDF created by Split PDF before using it.
Split PDF sample input: One unprotected three-page PDF; page ranges = 1-2; output filename = selected-pages. Enter the sample in Split PDF and run the PDF page-range extraction operation. Split PDF expected result: The expected download is selected-pages.pdf containing source pages 1 and 2. To verify Split PDF, reproduce its worked example and compare the displayed or downloaded downloadable pdf file with the stated expected result. When Split PDF returns a file, open the download and inspect every affected page or image.
Split PDF requires one PDF up to 12 MB and at least one page number or range. The tool cannot create a result if none of the entered page numbers exists in the PDF. Split PDF may fail with password-protected, damaged, or unreadable files.
Files uploaded to Split PDF, together with the generated result, are automatically deleted after one hour.
