Split PDF Online Free

Extract a page range into a new PDF, or break every page out into its own file. Free and private.

What is the Split PDF tool?

The Split PDF tool takes one PDF and gives you exactly the pages you need. Pick a range (say pages 4–12) to extract it as a new document, or split every single page into its own PDF delivered as one ZIP file. Everything is processed on your device, so even confidential reports can be split safely.

Key features

  • Extract any page range (e.g. 5–20) into a new PDF
  • One-click “split every page” mode — each page becomes its own PDF in a ZIP
  • Shows the total page count so you never guess
  • Original text and image quality preserved
  • No upload, no account, no limits

How do I use it?

  1. Select or drop the PDF you want to split.
  2. Enter the From and To page numbers (the total count is shown).
  3. Click Extract & download for that range — or Split every page for a ZIP.
  4. The new file is saved to your device immediately.

Is it safe to split a PDF online?

Yes. The document is opened with Mozilla’s PDF.js inside your browser and the selected pages are copied into a brand-new file on your device. No copy of your PDF — full or partial — ever reaches a server, which makes this safe for bank statements, medical records and legal papers.

Tips for the best result

  • To pull several separate ranges, run the tool once per range — it takes seconds.
  • Splitting every page of a big scan? The ZIP keeps them named page_1.pdf, page_2.pdf… in order.
  • Combine Split with Merge to rebuild a document in a new order.
  • If the range is invalid the tool tells you the allowed page numbers.

Extract pages or split every page — choose the result you need

Use a page range when you only need selected pages from a PDF, or choose the every-page option when you want one PDF per page. The source file stays unchanged; LyfPDF creates new output files in your browser.

  • One page: set the start and end page to the same number.
  • A page range: enter the first and last page you want to keep.
  • Every page: split the document into separate PDFs and download them together.

Frequently asked questions

Can I extract just one page from a PDF?

Yes — set From and To to the same page number and you get a single-page PDF.

Can I split a PDF into separate files for every page?

Yes. Click “Split every page” and each page is saved as its own PDF inside one ZIP download.

Will the extracted pages keep their quality?

Yes. Pages are copied, not re-rendered, so text stays sharp and selectable and images are untouched.

Is there a page or size limit?

There is no fixed page-count limit set by the tool. Very large files depend on the memory and performance available on your device.

How do I split a scanned PDF?

Exactly the same way — scans are just image pages, and ranges or per-page splitting both work on them.

Is splitting private?

Completely. The file is processed in your browser and never uploaded, so nobody but you ever sees it.

Can I split a PDF online free without email?

Yes. No account, login or email is required. Select a range or split every page, then download the result directly.

To extract one page from a PDF, use the same start and end page number. For a chapter, enter its full range; use the every-page option only when you need separate one-page files.
