Three Split Modes Explained

  • Split every page — extracts each page as a separate PDF, all bundled into a ZIP (e.g. document_page_001.pdf, page_002.pdf …)
  • Extract page range — enter a start and end page to extract just those pages as one PDF (e.g. pages 5–12)
  • Group pages — divides the PDF into equal chunks of X pages each, downloaded as a ZIP (e.g. 5 pages per file)

Why Use ToolPlex PDF Splitter?

Most online PDF splitters upload your document to a remote server, which raises privacy and security concerns — especially for sensitive legal, financial or personal files. ToolPlex processes everything locally in your browser, so your data is never transmitted. There are no file size caps, no usage limits and no subscription required.

If you want to remove a specific page from a PDF without splitting the whole document, the Remove PDF Page tool does exactly that.

To convert images to PDF before merging, use our Image to PDF converter. To extract PDF pages as images, use the PDF to Image tool. For annotating or date-stamping photos before conversion, use the Image Editor or Date Stamper. For reducing file sizes, try the PDF Compressor or Image Compressor.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I split a PDF into multiple files?
Upload your PDF using the Add PDF File button, choose a split mode (every page, page range, or group), then click Split PDF. The resulting files download as individual PDFs or a ZIP archive — no signup or server upload required.
Is this PDF splitter safe and private?
Yes. All splitting happens locally inside your browser using pdf-lib and PDF.js. Your PDF is never uploaded to any server, ensuring complete privacy. Even if you go offline after the page loads, the tool will still work.
Can I extract specific page ranges from a PDF?
Yes. Select "Extract page range" mode, enter the start and end page numbers, then click Split PDF. Only those pages are extracted into a single PDF file that downloads directly.
Is there a file size or page count limit?
No. You can split PDFs of any size with any number of pages. Processing performance depends on your device memory, but there are no artificial limits imposed by the tool.
Does this PDF splitter work on mobile phones?
Yes. The tool is fully responsive and works perfectly on Android and iOS browsers without any app installation.
Can I split password-protected PDF files?
This tool works with standard non-encrypted PDF files. Password-protected PDFs are not supported due to browser security limitations. Please remove the password protection first before splitting.
Is this PDF splitter really free?
Yes. Completely free with no hidden charges, watermarks or registration required. You can split as many PDFs as you need.
What is the difference between the three split modes?
Split every page creates one separate PDF per page and downloads them all in a ZIP. Extract page range extracts all pages between two numbers into a single PDF. Group pages splits the whole document into equal chunks of X pages per file, downloaded as a ZIP.
