How do I split a PDF?
To split a PDF, add your file, then either type page ranges (for example, 1-5 and 6-12) or click the exact pages you want. The tool creates a separate PDF for each range or selection and gives them back as a single zip. It all runs in your browser, so your file is never sent to a server and you do not need an account.
- 1
Drag your PDF onto the tool or click to choose it. It loads in your browser; nothing is uploaded.
- 2
Type page ranges like 1-5 and 6-12, or click individual pages in the grid to select them.
- 3
The tool builds a separate PDF for each range or selection.
- 4
Save the new files. Multiple files come back together as a single zip.

Yes. Type ranges like 1-5, 8, 11-13 and the tool makes a file for each one, or combines your selected pages into a single new PDF. You can also split every page into its own file, or split into equal parts of every few pages.
No. This tool splits by page range and by the pages you select, not by bookmarks or sheet numbers. It reads the pages, not the document outline, so you choose the pages yourself. Splitting by bookmark or sheet name is on the roadmap.
No. Your PDF never leaves your browser. The split happens on your own device, so the file is not sent to Easy Takeoffs or anywhere else, not even temporarily. That makes it safe for confidential bid sets, contracts, and drawings.
There is no upload limit, because nothing is uploaded. The only ceiling is your device memory. On a normal computer, large multi-page plan sets split without trouble. Very large scanned files may run slower on an older phone or tablet.
Yes. It is free, with no signup, no account, no watermark, and no daily limits. It is free because it runs entirely on your own device, so there is no server cost. Easy Takeoffs makes construction takeoff software, and these PDF tools are a free companion to it.
No. The tool copies the pages exactly as they are, with no re-compression, so text stays sharp and vectors stay crisp. The pages in the new files look identical to the original.
Yes. A plan set is just a large PDF, so you can pull any range of sheets into its own file: the architectural sheets, a single detail page, or one discipline. Enter the page numbers for the range you want and download it as a separate PDF. It splits by page range and by the pages you select, so you choose the pages yourself.
No. These tools rearrange pages; they do not measure. To measure length, area, and count on a PDF to scale, use Easy Takeoffs, the construction takeoff software built to measure off plans. 14-day trial, no card.
