Select a PDF to see its available page range.

You can create up to 20 output files and 200 output pages in one operation.

Split a PDF in three steps

  1. 1

    Choose the source PDF

    Select one unencrypted PDF. The browser checks its content, size, and page count locally.

  2. 2

    Define page groups

    Use commas for pages that belong together and semicolons between separate output files.

  3. 3

    Create and download

    Generate the requested PDFs and use the individual download link for each result.

When splitting a PDF helps

Share only relevant pages

Extract a receipt, signed section, appendix, or chapter instead of sending the complete document.

Separate one large packet

Turn a combined scan or administrative bundle into smaller files with clear page groups.

Avoid a document upload

Work with sensitive pages on the device you are using rather than sending the source to a conversion server.

Frequently asked questions

Are my PDF files uploaded?
No. The tool reads the selected PDF and creates the output files inside your browser. ScanlyGo does not receive the document contents.
How do I choose which pages go into each PDF?
Use commas to keep pages together and semicolons between files. For example, 1-3;4,6;7-9 creates three PDFs.
Can I split a password-protected PDF?
No. The browser tool rejects password-protected and encrypted PDFs. Remove the password with software you trust, and only when you have permission, before selecting the file.
Will forms, bookmarks, and attachments be preserved?
Visible page content, page size, orientation, and rotation are retained. Interactive forms, bookmarks, attachments, scripts, and document-level navigation are not guaranteed to carry into the split files.
Why are the downloads shown separately?
Separate links let you choose each result without the browser blocking several automatic downloads. The links are temporary and exist only on the current page.
