How to Split a PDF Document
Need to split a PDF document into separate files? ToolifyPDF is a free online PDF splitter with six ways to split, right in your browser. Save every page as its own PDF, split every few pages, cut a large file into parts under a size limit, split at each chapter bookmark, or extract just the pages you need into a new PDF. Pick pages by typing numbers or by clicking the page thumbnails. No software to install, no account, and no watermark.
Six Ways to Split
Split every page, split every X pages, split by size, split by bookmarks, extract a page range, or extract specific pages, all from one tool.
Split by Size
Need to email a big PDF? Choose a maximum size in MB or KB, and the PDF is cut into parts that stay under that limit.
Visual Page Selection
Type page numbers like 1-5, 10, 15-20, or click "View" to see the page thumbnails and select pages, odd pages, or even pages with a click.
How to Split PDF Pages
- Select File: Click "Select File" or drag and drop your PDF into the box.
- Choose a Mode: Pick Split Every Page, Split Every X Pages, Split By Size, Extract Range, Extract Pages, or Split By Bookmarks.
- Set the Pages: Enter the page numbers, the number of pages, or the size limit, or select pages on the thumbnails.

FAQ
How do I split a PDF?
Upload your PDF to ToolifyPDF, choose how you want to split it, enter the pages or the size you need, and click "Split PDF". Then download your new files. It works in any browser, with nothing to install.
How do I split a PDF into separate pages?
Choose "Split Every Page". Each page is saved as its own PDF file, and all the files are downloaded together in a ZIP file. A 20-page PDF gives you 20 separate PDF files.
How do I split a PDF into multiple files?
Choose "Split Every X Pages" and set the number of pages per file. For example, a 30-page PDF split every 10 pages gives you 3 files. You can also split at each chapter with "Split By Bookmarks", or by file size with "Split By Size".
How do I split a PDF into two files?
If your PDF has 20 pages, choose "Split Every X Pages" and enter 10 to get two files of 10 pages each. To split at a specific page, use "Extract Range" twice, for example 1-8 and then 9-20.
How do I extract specific pages from a PDF?
Choose "Extract Range" and type a range like 1-5, 10, 15-20 to get one new PDF with those pages. Or choose "Extract Pages", type the page numbers, and decide whether to get one file per page or combine them into a single PDF.
How do I split a large PDF to send it by email?
Choose "Split By Size" and set a limit, for example 10 MB. The PDF is cut into parts that each stay under that size, so every part fits in an email. A single page that's already bigger than the limit is kept as its own file.
Can I split a PDF for free?
Yes. You can split PDF files online for free, with no account and no watermark. Your PDF can be up to 200 MB.
Does splitting a PDF reduce its quality?
No. Pages are copied into the new files exactly as they are, so text, images, and links keep the same quality, and text stays selectable.
How do I split a PDF on Mac, Windows, or iPhone?
Open ToolifyPDF in Safari, Chrome, Edge, or any browser on your Mac, Windows PC, iPhone, or Android phone, upload your PDF, choose a mode, and click "Split PDF". You don't need Adobe Acrobat or any split software.
Can I split and then merge PDF files?
Yes. Split your PDF here, then use Merge PDF to combine the pages or files you want into a new document. To simply reorder or delete pages in one file, use Organize PDF.

- Page Thumbnails: Select pages visually, including all, odd, or even pages.
- No Quality Loss: Pages are copied exactly as they are into the new files.
💡 Pro Tip
If your PDF has a table of contents with chapters, try "Split By Bookmarks" first. It splits the document at each chapter automatically and shows you the bookmarks it found before you split.
