Break a PDF into separate one-page files, bundled as a single ZIP download. Free, unlimited, and private — split right in your browser.
Files are processed locally and never uploaded.
Drop your PDF into the splitter above — it stays on your device.
The tool separates every page into its own PDF file.
Download the single ZIP containing all the page files.
A 40-page slide deck where each speaker needs only their section. A scanned batch of forms that arrived as one file but must be filed individually. A catalog you're pulling single pages from. Sometimes the document is right and the packaging is wrong.
Splitting solves it structurally: every page becomes its own PDF, so each piece can be renamed, forwarded, or filed on its own — no more “see pages 12–15 of the attached.”
This page opens the splitter in its straightforward mode: each page of your PDF is extracted as a standalone PDF file, and all of them are bundled into a single ZIP for one convenient download.
The pages keep their original quality and order — splitting rearranges nothing and re-renders nothing. Page 7 of the original becomes a file containing exactly page 7. Because the ZIP is generated on the fly in your browser, even a hundred-page document splits in seconds with no upload wait.
Two related jobs, easy to confuse. Split breaks the whole document apart — every page becomes a file. Extract pulls only the pages you choose into a single new PDF.
Rule of thumb: if you need most of the pages as separate files, split. If you need a few pages together as one document — a chapter, a clause, an appendix — use our extract pages tool instead.
A ZIP of generically-named page files is only half the job. Rename the ones that matter as you pull them out of the ZIP — “contract-signature-page.pdf” beats “page-23.pdf” when you're searching for it in six months.
For recurring workflows (monthly reports, regular filings), keep a folder template: one folder per source document, split files inside, named consistently. Future you will thank present you — and anyone you hand the folder to will understand it instantly.
PDFs people split are often confidential — legal documents, financial reports, personnel files. The split happens entirely in your browser; the document is never uploaded anywhere.
One practical note: the ZIP you download contains the full content of those pages, so treat it with the same care as the original — especially before forwarding individual pages to other people.
As a single ZIP file containing one PDF per page. Unzip it with your operating system's built-in tools — no special software needed — and each page is there as its own file.
That's a different job — extracting a range into one new PDF. Use our extract pages tool for that: type “5-10” and you get a single PDF with just those pages.
No. Splitting copies pages, it doesn't re-render them. Text stays selectable, images keep their resolution — each page file is identical in content to that page in the original.
Yes. Scanned pages are just images inside a PDF, and they split like any other page. The output files will be image-based PDFs, exactly like the source.
