Split PDF
Splitting is for the opposite problem: a PDF that’s carrying more than it should — a scanned batch of separate documents, a textbook you only need one chapter from, a signed contract where you only need the signature page.

Frequently asked questions
Can I split by exact page ranges instead of even chunks?
"Custom ranges" lets you define exactly which pages go in each output file, e.g. 1-3,4-8,9.
What if I only need a few pages, not the whole thing split?
Use "Extract pages" — it gathers just the pages you list into one new PDF instead of splitting the rest.
Do I get one file or several?
Ranges, every-N and one-per-page modes return multiple files zipped together; Extract returns a single PDF.
Is the page order preserved in each output file?
Yes, pages keep their original order within each output file.
