How to Split a PDF and Extract Pages (Free)

PDF Splitter – free online tool guide

A 40-page bank statement when the visa office needs only the last three months, a scanned file containing several certificates, or a textbook chapter you want to share: in each case you need only some pages of a PDF. Splitting a PDF lets you extract exactly those pages. This guide shows how, using our free PDF Splitter.

How to split

  1. Open the PDF splitter.
  2. Choose your PDF.
  3. Enter the pages or ranges you need.
  4. Download the new PDF.

The file is processed in your browser, so private documents stay on your device.

Page range examples

You type You get
1-3 Pages 1, 2 and 3
5 Page 5 only
2, 4, 6 Pages 2, 4 and 6
10-end Page 10 to the last page
1-2, 8-9 Pages 1, 2, 8 and 9

Splitting into single pages

To save every page as its own PDF, choose the option to split into individual pages. This is useful when a scanner saved several documents into one file.

Common uses

  • Sending only the required pages of a bank statement
  • Separating CNIC front and back from a combined scan
  • Extracting a chapter or exercise from study material
  • Removing blank or duplicate pages
  • Reducing file size for upload limits

Rearranging pages

To change the order of pages, split the PDF into parts, then put them back together in the order you want with the PDF Merger.

After splitting

If you need a page as an image, convert it with the PDF to JPG tool. If you need to edit text, try the PDF to Word converter.

A note on official documents

Some offices require complete statements or documents. Removing pages from official records can lead to rejection, so only send selected pages when the instructions allow it.
