Best Free PDF Splitter — Extract or Separate Pages

What separates a good splitter from a mediocre one

Page-level control — you should be able to pick exactly which pages go where, not just cut a document in half.
Batch output — splitting into several files should package them together (a zip) rather than making you download one at a time.
No re-upload for large files — the bigger the source PDF, the more a server-side tool's upload time becomes the bottleneck.
No page count limit — some free tiers cap you at a handful of pages.

Open the Split PDF tool.
Drop in your PDF — thumbnails of every page appear.
Select the pages you want extracted, or choose to split every page into its own file.
Download the result — multiple files are bundled into a zip automatically.

Because the PDF is parsed locally with pdf.js and reassembled with pdf-lib, there's no upload step regardless of file size.

Can I extract just a few pages instead of splitting the whole document?+

Yes — you select exactly which pages to pull out; the rest of the document is left alone.

What format does the output come in?+

A single extracted range downloads as one PDF; splitting into multiple separate files downloads as a zip containing each one.
