How splitting PDF works with puduPdf
puduPdf separates your PDF into multiple files using pdf-lib in a dedicated Web Worker. It offers two modes: split each page into an individual file, or define custom ranges like 1-3, 5, 7-10. All processing occurs locally in your browser.

Frequently Asked Questions about Splitting PDF
Everything you need to know about separating PDF files
How do I split a PDF by specific pages?
Upload your PDF, select 'By ranges' mode and enter the desired ranges (for example: 1-3, 5, 7-10). Each range will generate a separate PDF file. puduPdf uses a smart parser that accepts individual pages, hyphenated ranges, or comma-separated combinations.
Is quality lost when splitting?
No. puduPdf extracts pages using PDFDocument.copyPages() from pdf-lib, which copies pages exactly as they are in the original — text, images, vectors and forms are preserved without any recompression.
Can I split each page into an individual file?
Yes. Select 'One page per file' mode and puduPdf will generate an independent PDF for each page of your document. Ideal for extracting specific pages from long documents.
