Split PDF Online — Free Page Extractor
Divide a long PDF into individual pages or documents covering specified ranges. Pages are copied from the first input file, which can help separate appendices or sections of teaching material.

Comma-separated. Each range becomes one PDF; leave the end open to run to the last page.
How to use this tool
Choose per-page splitting or grouped ranges and enter source page numbers. An empty range input can fall back to per-page splitting, so check that the intended groups are present before running the operation.
Results and examples
A single result downloads as a PDF and multiple results as a ZIP. Inspect the first and last pages of each extracted document, particularly when overlapping ranges intentionally repeat a page across files.
Worked example
For eight pages, ranges 1-3,7,8 yield one three-page PDF and two single-page PDFs in a ZIP. Per-page mode splits four pages into four PDFs; a single output group is returned directly as PDF.
Limitations
- Pages missing from custom ranges are not included in output groups.
- Overlapping ranges can place a page in multiple outputs, so verify that duplication is intentional.
