Split PDF
Extract pages or split a PDF into separate files by range.
Split PDF does the reverse of merging: it breaks one PDF into two or more separate files, or pulls out just the pages you need. This is useful when a single scanned document actually contains several unrelated forms, when you only need to send one chapter of a report rather than the whole thing, or when a large contract needs to be separated into individual exhibits. Talzos’ Split PDF tool does this entirely inside your browser tab, so the original document is never sent anywhere before it comes back apart.
Why Use This Tool
Splitting a document is often more sensitive than merging one, because the file being split is frequently the original source — a full contract, a full medical record, a full bank statement — and you only want to share a portion of it. Uploading that full file to a third-party server just to cut two pages out of it is an unnecessary exposure of everything else in the document. Because Talzos processes the split locally, only the pages you choose to download ever exist outside your device; the rest of the original document is simply discarded from the browser session when you’re done.
How It Works (Expanded)
Upload your PDF and the tool shows a thumbnail of every page. You can either extract a specific range (for example, pages 3 through 7 of a 40-page report) or split the whole document into individual single-page files. If you only need a couple of pages out of a much longer file, select just those and download them as one new PDF rather than exporting the entire original. For documents that need to become several standalone files — like separating a bundle of invoices that were scanned together — the split-into-individual-pages option handles that in one pass.
Common Use Cases
Typical situations: pulling your own chapter out of a group report before sharing it, separating a bundle of scanned receipts back into individual files, extracting just the signature page from a long contract, splitting a multi-invoice PDF from a scanner into one file per invoice, or removing a cover page and appendix from a document before sending the core content to someone else.
How It Works

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I extract just one page from a large PDF?
Yes. Select the single page you want and download it as its own PDF file.
Does splitting reduce the quality of the pages?
No. Split PDF only separates existing pages — it does not re-render or compress them.
Can I split a PDF into a page-per-file at once?
Yes. Choose the split-into-individual-pages option to generate one file for every page in the document.
Is the original file kept anywhere after I split it?
No. Everything happens in your browser session; nothing is stored once you close or navigate away from the tab.
Is there a page limit?
No fixed limit — very large PDFs are only bound by your device's available memory.
