PDF Splitter: Split PDF Pages Online Securely in Your Browser

Need to split PDF files quickly and securely?

I built a PDF Splitter tool that runs entirely in the browser — no uploads, no servers, no registration. It’s perfect for splitting PDF pages individually, in ranges, or all at once.

Key Features

  • Split PDFs page by page, by range, or entire document
  • Download individual PDFs or a ZIP bundle
  • Progress indicators during processing
  • Error handling for password-protected or corrupted PDFs
  • Client-side processing — files never leave your device
  • Supports desktop & mobile with responsive design

Technical Highlights

  • Built with Next.js 15 + React
  • Uses pdf-lib for client-side PDF manipulation
  • JSZip for ZIP downloads
  • TypeScript + Framer Motion + Tailwind CSS
  • Lazy loading for optimized performance

Common Use Cases

  • Extract specific pages from reports, contracts, or presentations
  • Split scanned documents for easier sharing
  • Organize PDFs for portfolios, invoices, or research papers

Perfect companion to our PDF Merger tool.
