Split PDF Files
Free, fast, and secure tool to extract pages from PDF documents instantly & directly in your browser.
How to split a PDF
Extract pages from any PDF document in three simple steps — completely offline and private.
Upload Your PDF
Select or drag and drop a PDF file from your device. It stays safely in your browser's memory — nothing is uploaded to any server.
Choose Pages
Enter the page numbers or ranges you want to extract (e.g., 1, 3, 5-10). Use quick-select buttons for common operations like odd/even pages or first/second half.
Download Result
Your new PDF containing only the selected pages is generated instantly. Download it and share it — your original file remains completely untouched.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is this tool completely free?
Yes! File Gulp provides completely free file conversion tools with no hidden fees, no watermarks, and no registration required.
Are my files safe?
Absolutely. Unlike other converters, File Gulp uses modern WebAssembly technology to convert files directly on your device. Your files never leave your computer, ensuring maximum privacy.

No, we use high-quality algorithms to ensure your output files maintain the best possible quality during conversion.
Is there a file size limit?

What is a PDF?
Portable Document Format is the most widely used file format for sharing documents while preserving exact formatting, fonts, and layout across all devices and operating systems. Created by Adobe in 1992, PDFs remain the gold standard for contracts, reports, and professional communication.
Why split PDFs offline?
Most online PDF splitters require you to upload sensitive documents — invoices, contracts, medical records, or legal filings — to remote servers. File Gulp processes everything locally in your browser, eliminating any risk of data breaches, unauthorized access, or third-party storage.
When Should You Split a PDF?
There are many practical scenarios where extracting specific pages from a PDF saves time and keeps your documents organized.
- Extract Invoice Pages: Pull individual invoices from a multi-page monthly statement instead of sharing the entire document.
- Share Relevant Sections: Send only the pages that matter — a specific chapter, appendix, or contract clause — without exposing unrelated content.
- Create Study Materials: Extract key chapters or worksheets from a large textbook PDF for focused learning sessions.
- Reduce File Size: By removing unnecessary pages, you significantly reduce the file size, making it easier to email or upload.
- Legal & Compliance: Redact or separate sensitive pages from a larger document before distribution in regulated industries.
