How do I split a PDF into separate pages?

Open EdgeDocs' Split PDF tool, select your file, choose the pages or page range you want to extract, and download the result. Each extracted section becomes a new PDF file.

Can I extract specific pages from a PDF?

Yes. You can select individual pages, a continuous range, or multiple non-consecutive pages to extract into a new document.

Is there a page limit for splitting?

Free users can split PDFs with up to 10 pages. Pro subscribers can split documents of any length.

Does splitting a PDF affect the original file?

No. The original file is untouched. Splitting creates a new PDF containing only the pages you selected.

Can I split a PDF without uploading it to a server?

Yes. EdgeDocs processes everything in your browser. Your full document stays on your device — only the pages you choose to download leave as a new file saved to your computer.

Split PDFs Without Uploading Them

When you split a document, the full file — including pages you don't need — has to be loaded and processed. Most online tools upload your entire document to their servers for this. EdgeDocs processes everything locally so only the pages you extract ever leave your control.
