Separate PDF Pages Online — Free
Runs 100% in your browser — your files never leave your device.
A large PDF may contain chapters, forms, or recipients that need independent files. Add the document, describe the page ranges to separate, and create one downloadable PDF for each range. Processing stays in the browser rather than uploading the original.

Choose the document whose pages should be separated.
- 2
Enter page ranges
Use ranges such as 1-3, 4-6 to define the output files.
- 3
Download each part
Every requested range becomes a separate PDF.
About this tool
Separating a PDF into its pages
This page opens the PDF split tool preset for breaking a document into separate files — one per page or one per range. Leave the range box blank and the document is split into one file per page; type ranges and each becomes its own downloadable PDF, built locally in your browser.
Choosing how to separate
One file per page suits scan sets and single-page extractions; ranges suit chapters and sections. The page extractor is the same tool framed for pulling specific pages rather than dividing all of them.
Frequently asked questions
Is this different from the split tool?
No — same tool, same result, preset for the separating job. The split tool is the canonical home.
Does separating reduce quality?
No — pages are copied losslessly into new files, with text and images exactly as they were.
Does the original file change?
No — the original stays untouched on your device; separation produces new files alongside it.
