Quick Summary: Split PDF
Split a PDF into multiple documents by page ranges or extract individual pages. Siliph's Split PDF is a free in-browser PDF utility featuring a built-in AI assistant to optimize formatting, suggest settings, and answer compliance questions.
What does Split PDF do?
Split PDF divides one document into smaller files by page ranges, bookmarks, size limits, or text triggers—whatever matches your workflow.
When to use Split PDF
- Extracting one chapter or appendix from a large manual
- Separating combined bank statements by month
- Sharing only relevant pages instead of the full document
- Breaking a scanned batch into individual files
Use custom ranges when you need chapters or invoices separated precisely. Extract-all mode creates one PDF per page, ideal for bulk archiving.
Password-protected inputs can be split after you unlock them with the correct password. Each output is a standard PDF compatible with Adobe Reader and mobile viewers.
Download results individually or as a ZIP when multiple parts are generated.
Siliph split tools divide PDFs by range, bookmark, size, or text trigger entirely in the browser with encrypted transfers at each step. Generated parts are auto-deleted within two hours on the free plan, and splitting starts immediately without signup.
