Pull Out the Pages You Need from Any PDF
You have a 40-page PDF but only need pages 5 through 12. Or maybe someone sent you a large report and you just want to forward one section to a colleague. Instead of sending the entire file and telling them which pages to look at, you can split the PDF and extract exactly what you need. Upload the file, pick the pages or page ranges you want, and download the result as a separate, smaller PDF.
When Splitting a PDF Comes in Handy
Students deal with this when a professor shares a single PDF with all the course readings, but they only need one chapter for an assignment. Office workers run into it when a quarterly report needs to be broken into department-specific sections for different teams. Legal professionals regularly need to separate signed pages from multi-page contracts, and accountants pull individual invoices out of bundled billing documents. If you have ever scanned a stack of papers into one PDF and then realized you need to send just a few of those pages, this is the tool for that.
Split by Pages or by Range
You have two options for how to split. You can break the PDF into individual pages, where each page becomes its own separate file. Or you can specify page ranges - like pages 1 through 5 as one file and pages 10 through 15 as another. This flexibility means you can extract a single page just as easily as you can carve out an entire chapter or section. The original PDF stays untouched, so you are not losing anything by splitting it.
Quality Stays the Same
Splitting a PDF does not compress, resize, or alter the content in any way. The text stays sharp, images remain at their original resolution, and the layout is preserved exactly as it was in the full document. You are just pulling out specific pages, not reprocessing the file. The result is a clean PDF that looks identical to those same pages in the original.
Private and Browser-Based
Splitting runs entirely on your device with no server upload involved. This matters when you are extracting pages from sensitive material - think medical reports, academic transcripts, or insurance claim documents where individual sections need to go to different recipients. Because the PDF never leaves your browser, you can separate and distribute confidential pages without exposing the full document to an external service.

Your Data, Your Privacy
Privacy is not a bullet point we added to look good, it is how StackConvert is actually built. For most of the tools here, conversion and processing happen entirely in your browser. Your files never reach a server, never sit on someone else's hard drive, and never pass through a third-party pipeline. What goes in stays on your device.
PDF splitting runs with pdf-lib in your browser; the input PDF and every split output stay on your device.
For the handful of formats that browsers cannot decode natively, such as HEIC, AVIF, TIFF, or advanced PDF operations, files are processed over an encrypted connection and deleted the moment conversion finishes. Nothing is cached, logged, or retained. There is no account system tracking your activity, no analytics pixel watching your uploads, and no shadow database of processed files. If that sounds unusual, it is only because so many other tools have trained people to expect the opposite.
StackConvert. Fast tools, honest handling, your files stay yours.
