Frequently asked questions
- Can I split a PDF without uploading it anywhere?
- Yes. This tool does the cutting in your browser with JavaScript, and your PDF data is not sent to SheetRender or another processing server. You should still follow your organization’s policies for sensitive documents.
- How do I save each page of a PDF as a separate file?
- Choose "every page as its own file". A 30-page PDF becomes 30 single-page PDFs, numbered in order, delivered as one ZIP download.
- Can I split a PDF into two parts at a specific page?
- Yes. Pick "split into two PDFs" and enter the last page of the first part. Cutting a 20-page file after page 12 gives you pages 1-12 and pages 13-20 as separate documents.
- Can I split every 2 or 3 pages, for mail merge output?
- Use the dedicated split mail merge tool for that. It splits every N pages and can also name each output file from a pasted list or a CSV column, which is usually what a mail-merged document needs.
- Is this really free?
- Yes. There is no account or watermark. Source PDFs can have up to 5,000 pages, and splitting every page can create up to 1,000 files. Your browser does the processing, so it costs us nearly nothing to offer.
Need one PDF per spreadsheet row?
If the PDF you keep splitting is mail-merge output (one long file that is really hundreds of letters or certificates), the better fix is upstream. SheetRender takes the spreadsheet and one example document and generates each PDF separately from the start, correctly named, with no merge-then-split dance.
