Split PDF files without uploading them
Splitting a PDF often means handing it to a website you know nothing about. Here the work happens inside your browser. Your PDF is read from your device, cut into pieces by your own processor and saved straight back. Nothing is uploaded, so a tax return, a contract or a scanned ID stays private.
There is no sign-up, no watermark and no daily limit. Because nothing travels over the internet, even a long document opens as soon as you drop it.
Three ways to split a PDF
Select pages is the quickest way to extract pages from a PDF. Every page shows as a thumbnail, so you can see what you are keeping. Click the pages you want, or use All, Odd and Even for quick picks, then extract them into one new PDF.
Custom ranges is for when you know the page numbers. Type something like 1-3, 5, 8-10 and each range becomes its own PDF. Tick the box to put all the ranges into a single file instead. Use a dash with nothing after it, like 8-, to mean from page 8 to the end.
Every N pages cuts the whole document into equal chunks, such as one page per file or ten pages per file. It is handy for separating PDF pages into single sheets, or for breaking a long scan into chapters.
Extract pages from a PDF and keep the original
Your original file is never changed. PataPage reads it, builds new files from the pages you chose and offers them as downloads. If you create several files, they arrive together in one ZIP.
Pages are copied exactly as they are, so text stays sharp and images keep their quality. Need the pages in a different order afterwards? Send the result straight to Organize PDF, or shrink it for email with Compress PDF.
Good to know
Password-protected PDFs have to be unlocked before they can be split. Very large files depend on your device's memory, so a laptop will cope better than an older phone.
