Frequently asked questions

How do I extract just a few specific pages?
Type a range such as “1-3, 7, 10-12”. The tool keeps exactly those pages, in that order, and discards the rest.
Can I split one PDF into single-page files?
Yes. Choose the one-file-per-page option and you'll get a separate PDF for every page.
What does “split every N pages” do?
It breaks the document into equal chunks — for example, every 10 pages becomes its own file. Useful for batching long scans.
Does splitting change the remaining pages?
No. Extracted pages are copied unmodified, so text and image quality are identical to the original.
Is my document uploaded anywhere?
No. Splitting runs locally in your browser; the file never touches a server.
