How to split a PDF into separate pages

If one PDF contains several pages that need to be separate files, split the document instead of manually recreating each page.

Quick answer

Split the PDF once and download every page as an individual PDF.

The Split PDF tool creates one new PDF per source page and packages the results into a ZIP so you can download them together.

Use Extract PDF Pages instead when you want selected pages combined into one new PDF.

Page quality stays intact

Splitting copies PDF pages rather than turning them into screenshots.
