Why Paperlume is different
Many split tools upload your file and offer only one way to split. Paperlume gives you five ways, shows you every page first, and does the work on your own device. Nothing is uploaded and there is no daily limit.
Five ways to split a PDF
| Part | What happens |
|---|---|
| Every page | One PDF per page, packed in a ZIP |
| Page ranges | Type 1-3, 4-8, 9 to get three files |
| Every few pages | Cut a long file into equal parts, such as every 10 pages |
| Pick pages | Tap the pages you want to pull out into one new PDF |
| By bookmarks | Each chapter becomes its own file, named after the chapter |
Tips for the best result
Pull out one page
Use Pick pages and tap the page. You get a single small PDF.
Long reports
By bookmarks splits a report into chapters with the right names, when the PDF has bookmarks.
Check before you split
The page previews show where each cut will fall.
Frequently asked questions
Is this split PDF tool free?
Yes. There is no sign-up, no watermark and no limit on pages or files.
Is my PDF uploaded?
No. Paperlume splits your PDF inside your browser. The file never leaves your device.
How do I extract just a few pages?

Can I split a PDF into chapters?
Yes, if the PDF has bookmarks. Choose By bookmarks and each chapter becomes its own file, named after the bookmark.
Why do I get a ZIP file?
When a split makes more than one PDF, they are packed into one ZIP so you download them in one go. You can also save single files from the list.
Does splitting lower the quality?
No. Pages are copied as they are, so text and pictures look exactly the same.
