Split Methods Explained

📄 Split Every Page

Creates a separate PDF for each page. A 10-page PDF becomes 10 individual files.

🔢 Extract Page Ranges

Specify exactly which pages you want. Example: "1-3, 5, 8-10" extracts pages 1, 2, 3, 5, 8, 9, 10.

📊 Split by Size

Automatically split into chunks under a specific file size (e.g., under 10MB each).

Page Range Examples

1-5	Pages 1, 2, 3, 4, 5
3	Only page 3
1, 3, 5	Pages 1, 3, and 5
1-3, 7-10	Pages 1-3 and 7-10
