Frequently Asked Questions

Is it safe to split PDFs here?

Yes, all processing happens entirely in your browser. Your files are never uploaded to any server, making it 100% private and secure.

How do I enter page ranges?

Use comma-separated page numbers or ranges. For example, "1-3, 5, 7-10" extracts pages 1, 2, 3, 5, 7, 8, 9, and 10.

What happens to the original PDF?

The original PDF remains unchanged. Only the selected pages are extracted into a new PDF file.

How many pages can I process?

There is no hard limit. It depends on your browser's available memory. Typically, you can process PDFs with hundreds of pages without any issues.

How It Works

The uploaded PDF is parsed from an ArrayBuffer using pdf-lib. Based on your splitting criteria (page ranges like "1-5, 8, 12-15", every N pages, or each page individually), the tool creates one or more new PDF documents. For each output file, the relevant pages are copied from the source using copyPages(), preserving all content, formatting, and embedded resources. When multiple output files are produced, they are bundled into a ZIP archive using JSZip for convenient download. Single-file splits are offered directly as a PDF Blob.

All page extraction and document assembly happen in your browser using pdf-lib and the File API. Your PDF data never leaves your device — zero server interaction, full privacy.
