Everything you need in a free PDF splitter

Split any way you need

Break a PDF into every page, custom page ranges, or fixed-size chunks — then download one file or a ZIP.

Keeps real PDF pages

Pages are copied with pdf-lib, so text, vectors, and layout stay intact. This is not a print-to-image split.

100% browser-based

Splitting runs entirely in your browser. Your documents stay on your device — nothing is uploaded to Focera.

Drag & drop workflow

Drop a PDF up to 25 MB (50 pages), choose a mode, split, and download in a few clicks.

How It Works

Splitting a PDF should be quick and private. Focera keeps the whole flow on one page — upload, pick a split mode, process, and download without an account or desktop installer.

  1. Upload your PDF. Drag and drop a file up to 25 MB (max 50 pages), or click the zone to browse from your device.
  2. Choose how to split. Use every page for single-page files, page ranges like 1-3, 5, or fixed chunks of N pages each.
  3. Split and download. One output becomes a PDF; multiple outputs download as a ZIP. Split again with a different mode anytime.

Jump back to the PDF splitter anytime to process another file.

Popular Use Cases

  • Extract chapters or sections — Pull page ranges into separate PDFs for sharing or review.
  • One page per file — Split scanned packets into individual pages for forms, tickets, or uploads.
  • Even chunks for email — Break long reports into smaller multi-page PDFs that fit attachment limits.
  • Prepare pages for editing — Isolate the pages you need before merging, compressing, or converting to JPG.

Private by Design

Your PDF is read and split entirely in your browser. Focera does not receive the file, store pages, or run splitting on a remote server. When you leave the page, temporary results are discarded and nothing remains on our infrastructure.
