Frequently Asked Questions

How do page range formats work in the Split tool?

You can enter individual pages like '4', page ranges like '1-5', or comma-separated combinations like '1-3, 5, 7-10'. You can also type 'all' to split every page separately.

Can I extract just a single page from a large PDF?

Yes. Simply type the single page number (e.g. '7') into the page range field, and a single-page PDF named 'page_7.pdf' will be generated.

Are my uploaded PDF files stored on your servers?

Never. Your uploaded document is parsed in RAM and purged from memory as soon as the split process completes.

What happens if I specify page numbers that exceed the total page count?

The system validates your page ranges before processing. If an invalid page number is requested, a clear error prompt indicates the valid range.

Will hyperlinks and bookmarks be preserved?

Standard text formatting, layout, fonts, and embedded images on extracted pages are 100% preserved.

Is there a limit on file size for splitting?

You can upload PDF documents up to 50 MB, which easily accommodates most large manuals, reports, and books.
