Split a PDF or extract pages free
Pull specific pages or a page range out of a PDF into a brand-new file — no upload, no software. ToolCrix does the splitting in your browser, so contracts, statements and scans stay on your device from start to finish.
How to do it
- Add your PDF above.
- Enter the page range you want to keep or extract — a single page (7), a range (3-9), or several ranges.
- Click to split and download the new PDF.
Splitting vs extracting: same operation, two mindsets
“Extract” means you name the pages you want and get a new PDF containing only those pages. “Split” usually means breaking a long document into pieces — chapters of a book, one invoice per file from a batch export, or the signed page out of a 40-page agreement. Both come down to selecting ranges; you can run the tool multiple times on the same file to produce as many pieces as you need, since the source never changes.
Where this saves real time
Typical jobs: sending a client only the relevant appendix instead of the whole report; extracting one bank statement page for a visa or loan application; isolating a single chapter to annotate; or trimming a scanned bundle down to the pages a portal actually asks for. Because pages are copied out without re-rendering, text remains selectable and searchable in the extracted file, and image quality is identical to the source. File size follows the content: extract 5 image-heavy pages from a 50-page scan and the new file is roughly a tenth of the original, which often solves an upload-limit problem at the same time.
Private, in-browser splitting
Unlike upload-based tools, your PDF is never sent anywhere — useful when the document is exactly the kind of thing you don't want on someone else's server: legal agreements, payslips, medical records. It works offline once loaded, has no daily task limits, and handles large files fine — a 200-page scan splits as quickly as a 5-page letter, since nothing has to travel over your connection.
Frequently asked questions
Can I extract just one page from a PDF? Yes — enter a single page number and ToolCrix produces a one-page PDF containing exactly that page.
Can I pull out several non-consecutive pages? Yes — ToolCrix accepts multiple ranges, so pages 2, 5 and 11–14 can go into one extracted file in a single pass.
Is the original PDF changed when I split it? No — ToolCrix reads the source and writes a brand-new file; the original on your disk is never modified.
Do the extracted pages keep their quality and searchable text? Yes — ToolCrix copies page objects without re-rendering, so fonts, images and selectable text are identical to the source.
How do I split a 100-page PDF into chapters? Run the ToolCrix splitter once per chapter range (e.g. 1-12, then 13-30) — the source file stays intact between runs, so you can slice it as many times as you like.
