Why split a PDF?
Long PDFs often hold more than people need. Splitting lets you share just the relevant pages.
Share only the pages that matter
Each split file is a normal PDF, so it opens on almost any device just like the original.
- Focused files. Send the pages people need, not the whole document.
- Smaller attachments. Fewer pages usually means a smaller file.
- Better organised. Break large documents into sections.
What is PDF splitting?
Splitting a PDF separates its pages into two or more new PDF files. You can pull out a single page, a section or several parts of a document, and the original file stays as it was.
What you can do with Split PDF
Common reasons to break up a PDF.
1. Extract the pages you need
Take one page or section out of a long document.
- Pull out a signed page or certificate
- Share one chapter of a report
- Save a single invoice from a batch
2. Break large documents into sections
Divide manuals, books and reports into manageable parts.
- Split a manual into chapters
- Separate a scan of several documents
- Make files easier to navigate
3. Send smaller files
Sending fewer pages usually means a smaller attachment.
- Get under email attachment limits
- Upload only what a form asks for
- Compress the result if needed
4. Turn pages into images
Need a page as a picture instead? Convert it to an image.
- Save pages as JPG or PNG
- Use pages in slides and posts
- Crop pages to the area you need
