Frequently Asked Questions About Splitting PDFs

Is it safe to split PDFs online?

+

Yes, with MyPDF it is completely safe. Unlike other online tools, your files are processed entirely in your browser using JavaScript. Nothing is uploaded to any server. Your documents stay on your device at all times.

Can I extract non-consecutive pages?

+

Yes. Use the custom range input to specify individual pages and ranges separated by commas. For example, "1-3, 5, 7-10" will extract pages 1, 2, 3, 5, 7, 8, 9, and 10 into a new PDF.

Does splitting reduce PDF quality?

+

No. MyPDF copies the original pages directly without re-rendering or compressing. The extracted pages retain their full original quality, including text, images, fonts, and vector graphics.

Does this work on mobile devices?

+

Yes. The split tool works on any device with a modern browser — iPhones, Android phones, iPads, tablets, and desktop computers. No app installation required.

Is there a file size or page limit?

+

No artificial limits. Since processing happens in your browser, the only limitation is your device's available memory. PDFs with hundreds of pages work without issues on most devices.
