What is the Split PDF Tool?
The KagazKit Split PDF tool allows you to extract specific pages from a PDF document or split a large PDF into smaller files — all within your web browser. This is invaluable when you need to extract just a few pages from a large document, such as pulling a specific certificate page from a lengthy marksheet PDF, or separating individual chapters from a combined file. Powered by the pdf-lib library running entirely client-side, your documents are processed locally with zero server uploads.

- 2Specify page range — Enter the pages you want to extract using range notation (e.g., "1-3, 5, 7-10"). The tool supports comma-separated page numbers and ranges.
- 3Preview your selection — Review a preview of the selected pages to confirm you have the right content before splitting.
- 4Download the split PDF — Click "Split & Download" to get a new PDF containing only your selected pages.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is my PDF uploaded to any server?
No. All splitting and page extraction happens 100% inside your web browser using client-side JavaScript. Your documents are processed in memory and never transmitted over the network.
How do I specify which pages to extract?
Use standard page range notation: "1-5" extracts pages 1 through 5, "1,3,5" extracts only those specific pages, and "2-4, 7, 10-12" combines ranges with individual pages. The tool shows you the total page count to help you choose correctly.
Will splitting affect the quality of my PDF?
No. The tool extracts pages exactly as they exist in the original PDF — no re-rendering or compression occurs. Text, images, fonts, and annotations are preserved perfectly.
Can I split a password-protected PDF?
No. Encrypted PDFs cannot be read by the browser-based library. Remove the password protection first, then use the split tool.
Is there a page limit for the PDF I can upload?
There is no hard limit, but very large PDFs (500+ pages or 50MB+) may be slow to process in the browser. For typical documents under 100 pages, the tool works instantly.
