Are my PDF documents uploaded to any external server during splitting?

No. All PDF page parsing, vector extraction, rotation, and ZIP packaging execute 100% locally in your browser memory using WebAssembly and pure client-side JavaScript. Your confidential files never leave your device.

Can I extract non-adjacent pages into a single PDF?

Yes! You can use either the Visual Page Grid to select arbitrary pages (e.g. pages 1, 4, 7, and 12) or type a range like "1, 4, 7, 12". When "Single PDF" output mode is selected, those pages will be compiled together into one clean document.

What is Burst Slicing and when should I use it?

Burst Slicing automatically partitions a large multi-page document into uniform chapter files of N pages each (e.g., splitting a 100-page book into 10-page chapters). All generated files are bundled into a convenient, named ZIP archive.

How does Odd / Even duplex splitting work?

The Odd/Even mode separates odd front sheets (1, 3, 5...) and even back sheets (2, 4, 6...) into distinct PDF files. This is ideal for manual duplex printing or reconciling one-sided scanner batches.

Are text layers and vector resolution preserved in extracted pages?

Yes. The underlying PDF streams, vector illustrations, font embeddings, and text search layers are preserved with 100% fidelity using native pdf-lib page cloning.

How to Use PDF Split

Upload a PDF document or click "Try Sample PDF" for an instant 6-page corporate demo.
Select your slicing method: Visual Page Grid (click thumbnails), Custom Ranges (e.g. 1-2, 5), Burst Chunks (split every N pages), or Odd/Even Duplex.
In Visual Grid mode, click individual pages to select/deselect or rotate pages by 90° increments.
Choose your packaging strategy: Single Merged PDF or Separate Files bundled in a ZIP archive.
Click "Execute Split & Extract" to process your document instantly in local browser memory and download your output.

Modern Client-Side PDF Slicing & Extraction Architecture

Traditional web-based PDF splitters force users to upload proprietary files to remote cloud servers, exposing sensitive contracts, invoices, and blueprints to security vulnerabilities.\n\nToolique processes PDF files entirely within local browser WebAssembly memory. Using hardware-accelerated offscreen canvas rendering and client-side binary streams, large documents are sliced, rotated, and packaged in milliseconds with zero remote transmission.

4 Flexible Slicing Workflows for Every Professional Use Case

1. **Visual Thumbnail Grid**: Visually inspect every page, toggle selections with a single click, and rotate individual pages before extraction.\n2. **Custom Range Partitioning**: Specify granular page syntax (e.g. `1-3, 5, 8-12`) to extract specific chapters or contract clauses.\n3. **Equal-Size Bursting**: Automatically divide massive binders into manageable chunks of 1, 2, 5, or 10 pages for email attachments and portal upload size caps.\n4. **Duplex Reconciliation**: Separate alternating odd and even pages for dual-sided document collation.
