Worked example

Range extraction example

A user with a long PDF can extract pages 2-5 and 9 into one smaller document, or switch to split-all-pages mode to download each page as its own PDF.

  • Enter the page range carefully before running the extract action.
  • Use split-all-pages only when you actually need separate files for every page.
  • Download the ZIP output when exporting many single-page PDFs.

Split PDF works best when you know whether you need one extracted subset or a page-by-page archive before exporting.

Methodology

  • The tool loads the source PDF in the browser, then copies either the requested page range or each page individually into new output documents.
  • When split-all-pages mode is selected, each single-page PDF is bundled into a ZIP archive for one-click download.
