PDF Split

Extract pages from a PDF — three split modes

Split a PDF into chunks using one of three modes: extract specific pages by number, extract a page range, or split every N pages. Returns JSON with base64-encoded PDF chunks — up to 100 chunks per call.

How it works

Accepts a multipart PDF upload plus split parameters. Returns a JSON array of base64-encoded PDFs, one per chunk, with page numbers and byte sizes.
