Pick the pages you want.Use range mode for a continuous block (e.g. 1-10), or click individual thumbnails to cherry-pick non-consecutive pages. You can also split into single-page files — one PDF per page.

3
Download.Start splitting. If the result contains multiple files, PDF7 prepares a ZIP package; otherwise you can download the extracted PDF directly.
Who is it for?
Students, office workers, lawyers, accountants and anyone who deals with bulky PDFs. Picture a student who downloads a 400-page textbook but only needs Chapter 7 for an assignment — a quick range split (pages 188-214) produces a light, focused file. The same goes for an accountant separating a year-end scan into one PDF per month, or a freelancer pulling a signed page out of a long contract to send back.

What is PDF Split?
Splitting a PDF means breaking one document into smaller ones — extracting a chapter from a book, pulling specific invoice pages out of a monthly statement, or simply chopping a 200-page report into bite-sized pieces. With PDF7 you can split by page range (pages 5-12), grab single pages (just page 3), or break a PDF into one file per page, all from your browser without installing anything.
Our visual page selector shows thumbnails of every page so you can see what you are extracting before you click. The original PDF is never modified — you always get fresh files. Splitting happens in your browser memory and is wiped the moment your download finishes, which makes it safe even for sensitive documents like contracts and medical records.
Splitting is also the quickest way to share only what matters. Instead of emailing a 90-page handbook when a colleague needs a single section, you extract those pages and send a file that is a fraction of the MB. It is equally useful for archiving: pull each invoice into its own PDF so they are easy to name, search, and file later. Because PDF7 copies pages without re-rendering, the split pieces stay identical to the source — page numbers, bookmarks within the kept range, and hyperlinks all survive. When you select non-consecutive pages, they are merged into one tidy output in the order you picked them, so reordering as you extract is effortless.

Frequently asked questions
Will splitting reduce the quality?
No. Pages are copied byte-for-byte from the original. Text is selectable, images are at full resolution, fonts and form fields are preserved.
Can I split a password-protected PDF?
Not directly — first remove the password using our Unlock PDF tool, then split. We do this on purpose to avoid bypassing legitimate protection.
How big a PDF can I split?
Up to 150 MB per file. For very large textbooks or scanned archives, consider compressing first or splitting in stages.
Are my files private?
Yes. Your files are entirely yours — never shared, stored, or analysed. They are removed the moment processing finishes.
Can I select pages that are not next to each other?
Yes. In the visual picker, click any thumbnails you want — for example pages 2, 5 and 9 — and they are combined into a single output PDF in the order you selected. If you instead want each page as its own separate file, switch to single-page mode and PDF7 delivers them together in a ZIP.
Does splitting work on scanned or image-based PDFs?
Yes. A scanned PDF is just a PDF whose pages are images, so it splits exactly like a text PDF and the scans keep their original resolution — no quality loss. Splitting does not add searchable text on its own, though; if you need that, run the scan through our PDF to Word or OCR tool first, then split.
