Common uses
- Send only what's needed: the two pages of a contract a client must sign, or one month out of a yearly statement file.
- Separate scanned batches: a scanner produced one PDF for twenty receipts; split every page into its own file.
- Stay under upload limits: portals that cap file size accept the document in smaller parts.
Need to rearrange instead?
To change the order of pages, rotate them or delete a few, use Organize PDF pages. To combine files, use Merge PDF.
Bookkeeping examples
- A year of statements in one download: some banks export a single PDF for several months. Extract each month's pages to file them by period or send one month to a client.
- Supporting documents for one transaction: pull the invoice page out of a long vendor packet to attach it to the bill in your accounting software.
- Payroll and tax packets: separate each employee's form from a combined PDF before distributing them.
Finding the right pages
The page thumbnails let you check where each section starts before you type ranges, and you can open any page at full size. Open-ended ranges like 8- run to the last page, so you don't need to count pages in long files.
