Break one PDF into the exact pieces you need. Pick individual pages to pull into a single new PDF, or define page ranges to split a document into several files at once. All processing runs locally in your browser, so your original document is never uploaded — a real advantage when you're splitting bank statements, contracts, or anything private.
Open your PDF
Drop a PDF onto the page or browse for it. Thumbnails of every page render locally so you can see exactly what you're working with.
Choose extract or ranges
Switch to "Extract selected pages" to build one PDF from the pages you click, or "Split by ranges" to produce a separate PDF for each range you type.
Select pages or type ranges
Click page thumbnails to select them (shift-click for a run), or enter ranges like 1-3, 4-6, 7-10. Each range becomes its own output file.
Split and download
Click the split button. A single result downloads directly; multiple results are bundled into a ZIP so you get everything in one click.
No. Your PDF is read and split entirely inside your browser — it is never uploaded, cached, or stored on any server. This makes ConvertOwl safe for splitting confidential material like tax returns or medical records, unlike server-based tools that receive a copy of your file.
Extract combines all the pages you select into one new PDF, ignoring the pages you didn't pick. Split-by-ranges instead produces a separate PDF for every range you define, so 1-3, 4-6 yields two distinct files. Choose extract for cherry-picking, ranges for chopping into sections.
Type comma-separated ranges using page numbers, such as 1-3, 5, 8-10. Each entry becomes one output PDF. A single number like 5 produces a one-page file. Numbers are 1-based and are clamped to your document's actual page count.
Yes. If splitting produces more than one PDF, the results are packaged into a ZIP archive built in your browser so you can download them all together. A single output PDF downloads on its own without any archive.
Absolutely. Pages are copied byte-for-byte into the new files — text remains selectable, images keep full resolution, and nothing is re-encoded. The split files are exact extracts of your original with no quality degradation.
Not directly — an encrypted PDF must be unlocked first. Use the Unlock PDF tool with the correct password to produce an unprotected copy, then split that. This keeps the workflow secure while still running entirely in your browser.
