Why split PDFs with PDFVerge

Three ways to split

Extract a selection into one file, split every page into its own PDF, or cut the document into custom ranges.

Flexible page syntax

Mix single pages and ranges, and leave the end open: “2, 5-8, 12-” takes page 2, pages 5 to 8 and everything from 12 onward.

No quality loss

Pages are copied, not re-rendered, so text and images stay exactly as they were.

Free, no watermark

No account and no limits on how often you split.

When to split a PDF

Splitting is how you send only the part of a document that matters: one chapter of a report, the signed page of a contract, a single statement from a year of bank statements. It also gets a large file under an upload limit by breaking it into smaller parts.

If you want to keep most of a document and drop a few pages, Delete Pages is usually quicker than splitting.

Page numbers refer to the position of the page in the file, starting at 1, not to any numbers printed on the pages.

Split PDF questions

How do I extract pages from a PDF?

Choose “Pull out selected pages as one PDF”, type the pages you want such as 1-3, 7 and click Split PDF. You get a new PDF containing only those pages.

How do I split a PDF into separate pages?

Choose “One PDF per page”. You get a ZIP file with each page saved as its own PDF.

Can I split a PDF into several parts at once?

Yes. Choose “Split into ranges” and type ranges separated by commas, such as 1-10, 11-20, 21-30. Each range becomes its own PDF in the ZIP.

Does splitting change the quality?

No. Pages are copied without being converted or compressed.

How do I open the ZIP file?

Windows, macOS, iPhone and Android all open ZIP files natively. Double-click or tap it to see the PDFs inside.
