Practical ways to use this tool
Office work
Split document packets
Break reports and attachments into separate files for different recipients. Preview the boundaries before exporting the parts.
Administration
Divide PDF pages in groups
Use regular intervals for repeated forms or records. Check the page count of each group before distributing it.
Features and controls
Place cuts on a visual page board
Start with uncut pages, then click a page to cut after it.
Cuts and tinted groups
The scissors mark a boundary between output documents. Once you add a cut, tinted groups show which pages belong together. Click a boundary again to remove it. Review the final group as well as the first group; a cut splits the document between pages and does not crop the content of a page.
Use ranges and regular intervals
Combine visual cuts with page inclusion and rotation controls.
Intervals, inclusion and ZIP output
The visual editor offers regular page intervals as an alternative to placing every boundary manually. Choose included pages and rotate pages that need correction before export. Preview the resulting groups after changing these settings. The download is a ZIP containing separate PDFs named by their source page ranges.
Keep native page content
The operation works with PDF pages rather than screenshots.
Content quality and interactive features
Text and vector artwork remain in PDF form where supported. The original file on your device is not overwritten. Interactive forms, annotations, links and document-level navigation can behave differently in a newly assembled document, so check the generated PDF before sharing it. Page rearrangement is not redaction of information inside retained pages.
Review each generated part
Download the ZIP and inspect the PDFs it contains.
Archive contents and final checks
Each part keeps the page content in PDF form. Extract the ZIP on your device and check the first and last page of each part before sharing. Page-range names help identify the source positions. The original PDF remains unchanged; keep it if you want to try different split settings later.
