How to Split a PDF Online Free — Extract Pages Without Software

Split a PDF into separate pages or extract a specific page range online. Free, no upload, no account. Works in any browser.

Quick Answer: Go to ViewAnyFile.app/tools/pdf-split, upload your PDF, enter the page range (e.g. "1-3, 5") or choose to split all pages, then download. Free, no upload, runs in your browser.

Two Ways to Split a PDF

Option 1: Extract a page range

Enter the pages you want in the format 1-3, 5, 7-10. The tool creates a new PDF containing only those pages. Useful for:

  • Extracting a specific chapter from a large document
  • Pulling out one section to share without the rest
  • Removing pages you do not need before sending

Option 2: Split every page (ZIP download)

Splits the PDF so each page becomes a separate PDF file, then packages them all in a ZIP archive for download. Useful for:

  • Processing individual pages separately
  • Converting each page to an image (split first, then use PDF to JPG)
  • Distributing pages individually

How It Works

  1. Go to ViewAnyFile.app/tools/pdf-split
  2. Drop your PDF — you will see the total page count
  3. Choose your mode: extract range, or split all
  4. Click Extract/Split — download your PDF or ZIP

Everything runs in your browser using pdf-lib. No server receives your file at any point.
