Frequently Asked Questions

How do I extract specific pages from a PDF?
Upload your PDF, then enter the page range (e.g., "1-5, 8, 10-12") and click Split. The tool extracts those exact pages into a new PDF file.
Can I split a PDF into individual pages?
Yes! Select the "Split All Pages" tab and click Split. Each page will be available as a separate downloadable PDF.
Will the split PDFs maintain original quality?
Absolutely. The split uses PDF-Lib to extract pages without any re-encoding, preserving the original quality and formatting.
Is my PDF uploaded to a server?
No. All splitting happens directly in your browser using JavaScript. Your PDF file never leaves your device, which makes this safe for confidential or sensitive documents.
What page range formats are supported?
You can enter single pages, ranges, or a mix of both separated by commas — for example "1-5, 8, 10-12" extracts pages 1 through 5, page 8 by itself, and pages 10 through 12.
Is there a file size or page limit?
The tool handles typical multi-page PDF documents without issue. Very large files may take a moment longer to process since everything runs in your browser rather than on a remote server.

About the PDF Split Tool

The Logrith PDF Split tool lets you extract specific pages or split an entire PDF into individual page files, free and directly in your browser. Whether you need to pull a single chapter out of a long report, separate an invoice from a multi-page scanned batch, or break a document into one file per page, this tool handles it without needing Adobe Acrobat or any other desktop software installed.

PDF splitting is one of the most common document tasks people run into — a scanned batch of receipts that needs separating into individual files, a textbook PDF where you only need one chapter, or a signed contract where you want to pull out just the signature page to send separately. This tool covers both the "extract specific pages" use case and the "split into one file per page" use case from the same interface.

Two Ways to Split a PDF

How the Page Range Syntax Works

The page range field accepts a flexible, comma-separated format that mixes individual page numbers and ranges. A dash between two numbers (like "10-12") means every page from the first number to the second, inclusive. A single number on its own (like "8") pulls just that one page. You can combine as many of these as you need, separated by commas, and the tool reads them left to right, extracting pages in the order you listed them.

Common Use Cases for Splitting PDFs

Does Splitting Affect PDF Quality?

No. This tool uses PDF-Lib, a library that works with the PDF's internal page structure directly rather than converting pages to images and back. That means text stays selectable, embedded fonts remain intact, and any images inside the original pages keep their original resolution. Splitting a PDF this way is fundamentally different from, say, converting pages to JPG and back to PDF, which would introduce quality loss — nothing here gets re-rendered or re-compressed.

Step-by-Step: How to Split a PDF

1. Upload your PDFDrag and drop the file onto the upload zone, or click to browse and select it.
2. Choose your split methodPick either a specific page range or splitting into all individual pages.
3. Enter page numbers if neededFor a range, type the pages or ranges you want, separated by commas.
4. Download your resultClick Split and download either the single extracted PDF or the full set of individual page files.

Privacy and Browser-Based Processing

Because the entire split operation runs client-side in your browser using JavaScript, your original PDF file is never uploaded to any server. There's no file storage, no account requirement, and no record kept of what you've processed. This makes the tool a safe choice for splitting PDFs that contain personal, financial, or otherwise sensitive information, since the content never travels over the internet in the first place.

Splitting vs. Merging: Knowing Which You Need

It's easy to mix up splitting and merging when you're dealing with multiple PDF files. Splitting takes one PDF and breaks it apart into smaller pieces — either a specific page range or every page individually. Merging does the opposite: it takes several separate PDF files and combines them into one. If you've received a bundle of documents scanned together as one file and need to separate them, you want to split. If you have several separate files that you want combined into a single document to send or print together, you want to merge instead — Logrith's PDF Merge tool handles that side of the workflow.
