3 Split Modes
Split exactly the way your workflow needs
Not every split is the same. Choose from three professional modes tailored for different document types.
By range
Pages 1–5 become file 1, pages 6–12 become file 2.
Every N pages
Split into equal chunks of 3, 5, or any count you define.
Extract pages
Pull out only pages 2, 7, and 11 as separate files.
Visual Page Picker
See every page before you split
No more guessing page numbers by scrolling through an external viewer. See a live thumbnail of every page in your browser and click to select exactly what you want to extract.
