About This Tool

Three ways to split — pick the one that fits

Use the scissors view to click between any pages and mark exact split points. Switch to Every N pages to auto-divide a document into equal chunks. Or use Extract pages to hand-pick individual pages into a new PDF.

All processing happens locally — your PDF never leaves your device. Once split, you can merge files back together or compress the result.
