Can I extract only specific pages from a PDF?

Yes. Enter page ranges like "1-5, 8, 11-15" to extract exactly those pages into a new PDF. You can create multiple output PDFs with different page ranges.

Can I split every page into a separate file?

Yes. Choose "Split into individual pages" to create one PDF file per page. All files are packaged into a ZIP for easy download.

Will splitting a PDF affect the quality?

No. PDF splitting with pdf-lib is a direct operation — pages are extracted without re-rendering, so quality, fonts, and formatting are fully preserved.

What is the maximum PDF size for splitting?

The tool handles PDFs up to 100MB. For large PDFs with many pages, splitting may take a few seconds.

Can I split a password-protected PDF?

Not directly. You'd need to remove the password protection first, then use this tool to split it.
