Good to know

  • Shrinking only recompresses the photos inside — a text-only PDF barely gets smaller
  • Cannot set or remove passwords — a protected PDF will not open
  • Doesn’t edit the text or images on a page — it works page by page
  • Does not read text out of scanned pages (this is not OCR)

Frequently asked questions

How are the split files named?

The original file name followed by the original page number (report_03.pdf), so you can tell which page each one was even after removing or reordering pages.

What if I type a page number that doesn't exist?

If the range matches no pages, the list stays as it is and you are told why. If only part of it is out of range, the pages that exist are kept and you are told the rest was dropped.

Is my file uploaded?

No. Splitting finishes inside this browser.
