3. Click "Split into Individual Pages" to extract each page.
4. Download individual pages or use "Download All" to save them all.

What is PDF Splitting?

PDF splitting separates a multi-page PDF document into individual single-page files. Each page becomes its own standalone PDF that can be downloaded, shared, or processed independently. This is useful when you need to extract specific pages from a large document, distribute individual sections, or reorganize content from multiple sources. All processing happens locally in your browser using the pdf-lib library, so your documents remain private and secure.

How It Works

The tool loads your PDF, reads the total page count, and then creates a new PDF document for each page. Each single-page PDF contains a complete copy of the original page with its content, formatting, and embedded resources. The page dimensions and orientation are preserved exactly. After splitting, you can download individual pages or use the "Download All" option to save all pages at once. The process is fast for most documents, though very large PDFs with hundreds of pages may take a few seconds.

Common Use Cases

• Extracting a specific page from a large report or manual
• Breaking a book or thesis into individual chapter files
• Isolating a single form or certificate from a multi-page packet
• Separating scanned pages for individual filing or processing
• Extracting pages for recombining with pages from other documents

Splitting and Recombining Workflows

A common workflow is to split a document, select the pages you need, and then recombine them using the Merge PDF tool. This effectively lets you rearrange pages, remove unwanted pages, or combine selected pages from multiple documents. After assembling your final document, you can add page numbers with Add Page Numbers or reduce the file size with Compress PDF.
