Split PDF Online

Split a PDF into one file per page, free — multi-page PDFs are returned as a ZIP.

Break a multi-page PDF apart into individual single-page files in one step — useful for sharing just one page, archiving pages separately, or feeding pages one at a time into another tool. Multi-page input comes back as a ZIP of numbered single-page PDFs.

When splitting a PDF makes sense

Large scanned documents, bundled contracts, and multi-chapter reports are often easier to work with as individual pages — sharing just one page of a report, archiving each page separately, or feeding pages one at a time into another tool are all situations where a single combined PDF gets in the way rather than helping.

Splitting differs from extracting specific pages (see PDF Page Extractor): splitting turns every page into its own separate file, useful when you genuinely want all of them apart, while extraction pulls out only the pages you choose into one new file.

How splitting works here

Upload a PDF and it's broken into one PDF per page, preserving each page's original content and quality exactly. A single-page PDF is returned directly; a multi-page PDF is returned as a ZIP archive containing one PDF file per page, numbered in order.

To go the other direction — recombining split pages, or building a new document from pages across several files — use Merge PDF on the resulting files.
