Frequently Asked Questions

How can I split a large PDF file into smaller documents?

Our Split Pages in Half tool is specifically designed to split each page horizontally into left and right halves, perfect for scanned books with side-by-side content, double-page spreads, A3-to-A4 conversion, or separating dual-column layouts. Simply select your PDF and click 'Split Pages in Half'. All processing happens in your browser for complete privacy.

Can I extract specific pages from a PDF document?

Yes, our tool allows precise page extraction. Choose the 'Split by page range' option and enter your desired pages as individual numbers or ranges (e.g., 1-3,5,7-9). This will create separate PDFs containing only the pages you specified.

Is there a file size limit for splitting PDFs with your tool?

Since our PDF splitter processes files directly in your browser without uploading to any server, there are no arbitrary file size restrictions. The only limitation would be your device's memory and processing capabilities. This also ensures complete privacy as your files never leave your device.

Can I split password-protected PDF files?

Currently, our tool works with standard PDF files that are not password-protected. If your PDF requires a password to open, you'll need to remove the password protection first using a PDF unlock tool before splitting.

What's the difference between splitting all pages vs. page ranges?

'Extract all pages' creates individual PDF files for each page (1 page per file). 'Split by page range' lets you create custom groups - for example, pages 1-5 in one file, pages 6-10 in another. This gives you more control over how your content is organized.

Can I preview the pages before splitting?

Yes! After uploading your PDF, you can see thumbnail previews of each page. This helps you identify exactly which pages you want to include when using the page range or page selection options.

Do split PDFs maintain the original quality and formatting?

Absolutely! Our splitting process preserves all original formatting, fonts, images, and document quality. The split PDFs will look identical to the corresponding pages in your original document, with no compression or quality loss.
