How to Split PDF Files
Split PDF Files Now →Need to extract specific pages from a large PDF or split a document into smaller parts? AuraPDF's free PDF splitter lets you divide any PDF file into separate documents with pinpoint control. Select individual pages, specify page ranges, or split every page into its own file — all without installing any software.
This is invaluable when you receive a large combined document but only need certain sections, or when you need to share just a few pages from a longer report. The split operation preserves all formatting, links, and quality from the original document.
Step-by-Step: How to Split PDF Files
Upload your PDF
Drag and drop your PDF file. AuraPDF displays a visual preview of every page so you can see exactly what you're splitting.
Select pages to extract
Click on individual pages to select them, or enter page ranges (e.g., 1-5, 8, 12-15). Selected pages are highlighted visually.
Split and download
Click split. AuraPDF creates your new PDF containing only the selected pages. Download it instantly.
Pro Tips
- Use the visual page preview to identify the exact pages you need before splitting

- After splitting, use the Merge tool if you need to recombine pages from different PDFs
