Split PDF by page ranges


The page range method gives you additional page splitting flexibility, including:

  • Splitting individual pages into new file(s).
  • Splitting a page ranges into new file(s).
  • Combine pages and pages ranges.
  • Separating page ranges into separate output files.
  • Extracting unwanted pages.
  • Using overlapping page ranges to create multiple files.
  • Split into odd and even pages.
  • Reverse page order.

To split PDF by page range:

  1. On the Insert and Edit ribbon tab, in the Pages group, click Split Pages Nitro PDF icon.
  2. Click the Into files of n pages option, and then enter the page range to use.
  3. Click Split.

Splitting Parameters

By combining page numbers with simple parameters (commas, dashes, semicolons, odd, and even), you can specify which pages should be merged together to form a new PDF, and which pages should be split separately to form another PDF.
