Separate PDF pages based on the output you need

If you need to split one PDF into multiple files, you can create one document per page, separate specific ranges or create automatic fixed-size page groups.

Custom ranges can also be used to cut a PDF into selected sections, for example 1-3, 4-6, 8.

Ways to split a PDF document

One page per file

Creates one independent PDF file for every page in the original document.

Custom ranges

Lets you define specific groups such as 1-3, 4-6 and 8.

Fixed page groups

Splits the document automatically after a fixed number of pages.

Privacy and local processing

The document is split directly inside your browser. It is not sent to SG Hub's processing server.

When several documents are generated, they are grouped into one ZIP file to make downloading easier.

Large PDF files

Processing time depends on the document size, page count and memory available on your device.

Long documents may take more time, especially when generating one independent file for every page.

PDF and ZIP downloads

When the selected configuration produces only one document, the result is downloaded directly as a PDF.

When several documents are created, the tool packages them into one ZIP file while keeping every generated PDF separate.

When splitting a PDF is useful

  • Separate chapters from a long document.
  • Create one file for every invoice or receipt.
  • Divide reports into smaller sections.
  • Prepare page groups for different recipients.
  • Separate scanned documents stored in one PDF.

What is preserved when splitting

  • The original size and orientation of each page.
  • Selectable text and compatible graphics.
  • The visual quality of copied pages.
  • The order defined by each range or group.

Common mistakes to avoid

  • Repeated ranges or page numbers outside the document.
  • Groups that are too small and create too many files.
  • Unclear output filenames.
  • Protected, empty or damaged documents.
  • Sharing the ZIP without reviewing its contents.
