About Split PDF by Range Tool
Split PDF by Range – Separate Documents Exactly How You Need
Working with large PDF files can be inconvenient when you only need specific sections. Instead of handling one heavy document, it is often better to split it into smaller, more manageable files. The Split PDF by Range tool allows you to extract the exact page ranges you need and save them as new PDF documents instantly.
This tool is designed for students, professionals, researchers, business teams, and anyone dealing with multipage PDFs. Whether you want to divide a lengthy report into chapters, extract only the relevant sections of an eBook, or share just part of a document with your team, splitting by page range makes the task effortless.
Why use Split PDF by Range?
- Custom page ranges: Select any sequence of pages, such as 1–5, 10–20, or even multiple ranges like 2–4 and 15–18.
- Faster file handling: Smaller files are quicker to share, email, or upload.
- Organized documents: Keep only the pages that matter to you instead of storing entire bulky files.
