Split PDF Files
Create one PDF for each page of a document. The individual files are collected into a ZIP download, including when the source has only one page.
How to use this tool
- Select one PDF from your device using the file picker or drop area.
- Check the selected file name and size before starting.
- Choose Split PDF. The tool creates one PDF for each source page.
- Save the downloaded split-pages.zip file and extract it to access the page PDFs.
Features
- Creates a separate PDF for every page and names files page-1.pdf, page-2.pdf, and so on.
- Packages all resulting page files into one ZIP download.
- Keeps the original page order.
Common use cases
- Sharing one page from a long report without sending the complete document.
- Separating scanned pages for individual review.
- Preparing page-level files for a workflow that accepts one page at a time.
Supported files and limitations
Supported inputs
- One readable PDF file, including a one-page PDF.
Limitations
- The tool splits at page boundaries; it cannot split content within a page.
- Large documents may need substantial memory because each page PDF and the ZIP are generated in the browser.
- Encrypted or malformed PDFs may fail to load. Modifying a signed PDF may invalidate its digital signature.
Troubleshooting
- The ZIP file is missing or will not open.
- Wait for processing to finish, confirm the browser allowed the download, and try extracting the ZIP with your device's archive utility.
- The PDF cannot be processed.
- Try a readable, unencrypted copy in a modern browser. If the document is large, close other tabs or split a smaller source file.
Privacy and security
The selected PDF is read and split in this browser tab. This tool contains no file-upload step; the page PDFs and ZIP are generated on your device.
Frequently asked questions
How are the split pages delivered?
Each page is saved as a separate PDF inside split-pages.zip. Extract the ZIP after downloading to use the individual files.
Can I split only a few selected pages?
This tool creates a file for every page. Use Extract PDF Pages when you need to select particular pages for one new PDF.
Does a one-page PDF still produce a ZIP?
Yes. It produces a ZIP containing page-1.pdf, so the output format stays consistent.
