Frequently Asked Questions

How do I split a PDF into separate files?

Upload your PDF, choose your split mode (extract specific pages, split into chunks, or split by page ranges), select the pages or set your preferences, and click 'Split PDF'. All processing happens in your browser.

How does the split by ranges feature work?

Enter page ranges separated by commas (e.g., '1-3, 5, 7-10'). This will create separate PDF files: one with pages 1-3, one with page 5, and one with pages 7-10. Each range becomes its own PDF document.

Can I preview pages before splitting?

Yes! The tool generates thumbnails of all pages. Click the eye icon on any thumbnail to see a full-size preview. This helps you verify you're selecting the correct pages before splitting.

What's the difference between ZIP and separate downloads?

ZIP download packages all resulting PDF files into a single compressed archive, making it easier to download and organize multiple files. Separate downloads will trigger individual downloads for each PDF file with a small delay between them.

Is my PDF data secure when using this tool?

Absolutely! All PDF processing happens entirely in your browser using pdf-lib. Your files never leave your device, are not uploaded to any server, and are not stored anywhere. This ensures complete privacy and security for your documents.
