Frequently Asked Questions
Is this PDF splitter safe?
Yes. All processing happens in your browser using JavaScript. Your PDF is never uploaded to any server, stored, or logged.
What split modes are available?
Every N Pages splits the document into parts with a fixed number of pages each. Custom Ranges lets you define exact page ranges like "1-3, 5, 7-9". Extract Pages collects specific pages into a single PDF.
What is the maximum file size?
The tool supports PDF files up to 50MB. For large files, processing time depends on your device's performance.
How do page ranges work?
In Custom Ranges mode, enter ranges separated by commas. For example, "1-3" creates a PDF with pages 1, 2, and 3. A single number like "5" creates a PDF with just page 5. The ranges are processed in order.
