Split PDF helps when a long document contains only a few pages you need. Upload one PDF, choose the pages or ranges to extract and download a smaller file focused on the exact section you want.
You can enter single pages, ranges or a mix of both. For example, 1-3 extracts the first three pages, while 2, 5, 9-12 extracts a custom set. The selected pages are copied into a new PDF and the original file stays unchanged.
Use Split PDF when a report includes an appendix you need to send separately, a textbook PDF contains one chapter, a form packet includes several unrelated forms or a scanned file holds many documents in one upload. It is also helpful when a portal has a file size limit and you only need to submit part of the PDF.
Split PDF is best when you want to pull out the pages you need. Delete PDF Pages is better when most of the document is correct but a few pages should be removed. Both approaches keep the source file untouched and create a new output.
Check the page numbers carefully before running the job. PDF page numbers in a viewer do not always match printed page numbers on the document, especially when there is a cover page or front matter. If the result is not the right section, adjust the range and try again.
The uploaded PDF and the extracted output stay on the server only briefly; cleanup runs around 10 minutes after processing. Download the result while the link is active, then open it to confirm the correct pages are included before you share it.
Select the PDF file you want to split by dragging it into the upload area or clicking to browse.
Enter the page numbers or ranges you want to extract. Use commas to separate individual pages and dashes for ranges.
Click Split PDF and download the new file containing only your selected pages.
Upload one PDF, choose the split mode and enter the pages you want to extract. You can create one smaller PDF from selected pages or split the document into separate files depending on the option you choose. PDFem creates a new output file, so the uploaded PDF is not changed.
Yes. Enter the page number you want, such as 4, and PDFem will create a new PDF with only that page. Pulling a signature page, a receipt, a single form or one section out of a larger document is exactly what this mode is for.
Yes, use the option that creates separate files for each page. This mode is capped at 50 pages per document; for longer PDFs, extract a page range instead. When the output contains more than one file, PDFem returns a ZIP download so the pages stay together as a package. Open the ZIP and check the file names before forwarding them.
Use commas for separate pages and a dash for a range. For example, 1, 3, 7-10 extracts pages 1, 3 and 7 through 10. Keep the range simple and double check it before running the split, especially when the document has a cover page or front matter.
No. PDFem uses the uploaded PDF to create a new file or set of files. The original upload is not edited or overwritten. If the output is not the section you wanted, you can adjust the page range and run the split again.
Some PDFs have printed page numbers that do not match the page count shown by the viewer. A report might show page 1 after a cover page, or a book might use roman numerals before the main text. Use the viewer's page position when entering ranges, then open the output to confirm the right pages were extracted.
