Split PDF

All PDF processing runs locally in your browser. Files are never uploaded to a server.
Choose a PDF, then extract a range or split every page.
Maximum 10.0 MB and 100 pages per file (free tier).
Need just a few pages from a long contract, or want every page of a scan as its own file? Utilitoo's Split PDF tool extracts specific pages or splits a document page-by-page - all without uploading your file anywhere.
Lawyers pulling signature pages from agreements, teachers sharing single worksheets from a full workbook, and accountants isolating monthly statements from an annual PDF export use split tools daily. Specify pages like 1,3,5-7 or choose split-every-page mode to download one PDF per page.
Page numbers are 1-based and support comma-separated lists and dash ranges, matching how most people think about document pages. Extraction runs locally with pdf-lib, copying only the pages you need into a new file. For multi-page extractions, you get one PDF containing all selected pages.
Utilitoo processes everything in your browser. Your document is never transmitted to a server, logged, or stored. The tool is free, requires no sign-up, and works for anyone who needs fast, private PDF splitting - from office workers handling reports to students organizing course materials.
Use Split PDF when you need a quick PDF pass without installing desktop software. Extract pages or split a PDF into separate files. Very large scanned files may take longer - watch memory on older laptops.

Tips & common mistakes
Extract pages or split a PDF into separate files. Image-only scans need OCR elsewhere before text extraction helps. Wait for progress to finish before downloading. If pages look rotated wrong, undo from your backup and try page-by-page instead of the whole file.
How to use
- Upload a PDF file.
- Choose extract pages or one file per page.
- Select pages on the thumbnails or type a range such as 1,3,5-7, then download.
