How to Split a PDF into Separate Pages or Chapters

The private way to split a PDF is Zro7 Split PDF. Drop the file, pick a split mode (per page, fixed range, or custom ranges), and download a ZIP of the pieces. No upload, no email required.

Three ways to split

• One PDF per page — turns a 200-page document into 200 files. Best for archival of individual invoices or forms.
• Fixed size — split every N pages (e.g., 10). Handy for chunked email attachments.
• Custom ranges — e.g., 1-3, 5, 8-12. Use this to isolate chapters or appendices.

Steps

1. Open Split PDF.
2. Drop the source PDF.
3. Choose the split mode and enter ranges if needed.
4. Click Split PDF.
5. Download the ZIP with all output files.

Isolate one page range instead

If you just want one contiguous slice (e.g., pages 5–12), Extract Pages is faster — it produces a single PDF instead of a ZIP. Use Split PDF when you need multiple independent pieces at once.

Why not Smallpdf?

Smallpdf and iLovePDF split PDFs on their servers, and free tiers cap the file size and daily usage. Zro7 uses pdf-lib compiled to WebAssembly to do the same operation locally, with no cap and no upload.
