Pages

Output

ZIP exports each selected page as a separate PDF; Single PDF keeps the range together.

Before you convert

Page ranges use 1-based numbers (for example 2-5). ZIP mode can be large on documents with many pages.

Extract the pages you actually need

Split PDF cuts a document into pieces. ZIP mode exports every selected page as its own PDF inside an archive; Single PDF mode pulls a range out as one file.

Pages use 1-based numbering: “2-5” means pages two through five, and comma-separated ranges like “1,3-4,8” pick specific pages. Use “all” to split every page apart.

Useful situations

  • Pull a chapter out of a long report.
  • Export each page separately for individual uploads.
  • Divide a large document into manageable chunks.

How to use Split PDF

  1. Select a PDF within the size limit.
  2. Enter a page range or “all”, and choose ZIP or Single PDF output.
  3. Convert and download the archive or extracted file.

What to expect

  • A ZIP of a long document contains many small PDFs — useful but heavy to browse.
  • Split keeps page content intact; document bookmarks may not transfer.
  • Invalid ranges are rejected — check page numbers against the document length.

Frequently asked questions

What is the difference between ZIP and Single PDF mode?

ZIP gives you each selected page as a separate file bundled in an archive. Single PDF extracts the chosen range into one continuous document.

How do I extract just the first three pages?

Enter “1-3” in the pages field and choose Single PDF mode.

Can I pick non-consecutive pages like 1, 5, and 9?

Yes — comma-separated ranges such as “1,5,9” or “2-4,7” are accepted.
