Split PDF Free Online
Fixpio’s pdf splitter separates a document into the pieces you actually need: pull out a page range, tick individual pages from the previews, or save every page as its own file. The split happens in your browser — the document is never uploaded.

Input is a single PDF. Extracts arrive as PDFs; splitting every page arrives as one zip.
What splitting a PDF is good for
The jobs a good pdf splitter quietly handles every day.
Pull one chapter out of a manual
Extract just the section you need from a long report, handbook or ebook and share that part alone, instead of sending a two-hundred-page attachment.
Separate a scanned bundle
Scanners often save a whole stack of paperwork as one PDF. Split every page into its own file, then rename, file or send each document separately.
Send less, disclose less
When a form, client or colleague only needs part of a document, send the extract instead of the whole file — smaller to send, and nothing extra shared.
About this PDF splitter
This pdf splitter separates one PDF into the pieces you actually need. Long documents collect for understandable reasons — a scanner bundles a stack of pages into a single file, a report grows appendices nobody reads, a handbook covers ten products when you own one. Splitting a pdf back into useful parts is the everyday fix, and it is all this page does: add the document, say which pages go where, and download the result.
There are three ways to split, because “split” means different jobs on different days. Extract a page range when you need one continuous section, such as pages 12 to 18 of a report. Tick individual pages in the preview grid when the pages you want are scattered — the first, the fifth and the last, say. Or split every page into its own file when a scanned bundle needs to become separate documents; those arrive together in a single zip, numbered in order.
Splitting here is a copying operation, not a conversion. The pages in your extract are lifted out of the original document exactly as they are, so there is no quality loss, no re-encoding and no change to text or images. Two honest limits are worth knowing: the document’s bookmark outline belongs to the original file as a whole and is not rebuilt inside an extract, and a password-protected PDF cannot be opened by the in-browser engine at all — remove the password in your PDF reader first, and the unprotected copy will split normally.
People split PDFs to pull a signed page out of a contract pack, to send one chapter of course material, to separate invoices that arrived in a single scan, and to cut a long statement down to the pages an application actually asks for. Whatever the job, the whole split happens on your device: nothing is uploaded, nothing is stored on a server, and there is nothing to sign up for.
Frequently asked questions
Ranges, separate files and quality — the splitting questions, answered.
How do I split a PDF into separate files?
Add your PDF above, choose “Every page as its own PDF”, and press Split PDF. Each page becomes an individual PDF file, and they are delivered together in one zip, named and numbered in page order. If you only need some pages, use a page range or tick the pages instead.
How do I extract just a few pages from a PDF?
Two ways: type the first and last page of a continuous run into the range boxes, or tick the individual pages in the preview grid — the ticked pages can be scattered anywhere in the document. Either way you get one new PDF holding exactly those pages, in their original order.
Will splitting a PDF reduce its quality?
No. This pdf splitter copies pages out of the original document rather than re-encoding them, so the text, images and print quality in the extract are identical to the source. Nothing is compressed, rasterised or downscaled at any point.
Is there a limit on pages or file size?
We set no page limit and no usage cap. The practical ceiling is your device’s memory: a very large document with hundreds of high-resolution scanned pages may strain a low-powered phone, in which case splitting it in two passes, on a computer, is the reliable route.
Can I split a PDF on my phone?
Yes. The splitter runs in your mobile browser just as it does on a computer — add the file from your downloads or cloud drive app, choose the pages, and save the result back to the device. No app install is needed.
Is this PDF splitter free, and is my file uploaded?
It is completely free, with no sign-up and no daily task limit. Your file is never uploaded: the splitting engine runs locally in your browser, so the document stays on your device from start to finish and nothing is stored anywhere.
