Separate PDF pages in just a few simple steps, directly in your browser.

Split Every Page, Extract Pages or Page Ranges?

Split Every Page

Every page of your PDF is saved as its own individual PDF file. Use this when you need each page as a completely separate document — for example, splitting a scanned book or a signed multi-page form. Files are delivered together in a ZIP.

Extract Pages

Choose specific pages, such as 1, 3, 5-7, and QuickFileTools combines only those pages into one new PDF. Useful for pulling out an invoice page, a signature page or a single chapter.

Split by Page Ranges

Define multiple ranges, such as 1-3, 4-6, 7-10, and each range becomes its own separate PDF. Ideal for dividing a long report into sections or separating a scanned batch into individual documents.

Private, Browser-Based PDF Splitting

The QuickFileTools Split PDF tool runs entirely inside your browser using open, well-established PDF libraries. Your document is never uploaded to a QuickFileTools server for this tool, so your files stay on your own device throughout the process.

Because processing happens locally, performance depends on your device's available memory, the size of your PDF and the browser you are using. QuickFileTools is built and maintained as part of a small suite of free, browser-based file tools, including Merge PDF, Compress Image and Image to PDF.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is the QuickFileTools PDF splitter free?

Yes. You can use the QuickFileTools Split PDF tool online without installing PDF software or creating an account.

Are my PDF files uploaded to a server?

No. This Split PDF tool processes your file directly inside your browser, so your document is not sent to a QuickFileTools server.

Can I split a PDF into individual pages?

Yes. Select the “Split Every Page” option and each PDF page will be created as an individual PDF file, delivered together in a ZIP.

Can I extract only specific pages?

Yes. Choose “Extract Pages” and enter pages such as 1, 3, 5-7. They will be combined into one new PDF.

Can I create multiple PDFs from page ranges?

Yes. Enter page ranges such as 1-3, 4-6, 7-10. Each range will become a separate PDF, downloaded together as a ZIP.

Does splitting a PDF reduce its quality?

No. The original pages are copied into the new PDF files without re-rendering or compression, so text, images and formatting stay unchanged.

Does the PDF splitter work on mobile devices?

Yes. The tool is designed to work in modern desktop and mobile browsers. Large PDF files may process faster on devices with more available memory.

Can I split a PDF if it is too large for an upload portal?

Yes. If compressing a PDF still leaves it above a portal's file size limit, you can extract only the required pages or split the document into smaller sections. Read the guide: Reduce PDF size for upload.

Guides for this tool

Check it yourself: your file is not uploaded

  1. Choose your file on this page.
  2. Turn off Wi-Fi or mobile data.
  3. Run the tool. It still finishes and saves the result, because all the work happens in your browser.

On a computer you can also open the browser's developer tools (F12), choose the Network tab and watch: no request carries your file.
