PDF Cutter - Free Online Tool

Need to cut a PDF into smaller files? Drop a PDF, pick the cut points, and download the resulting parts as individual PDFs or a single ZIP. Works on any PDF - reports, scanned books, statements, government forms - and runs entirely in your browser so private documents stay private.

When to use this

Common reasons to cut a PDF: extract a specific chapter from a textbook, split a 200-page report into per-section files, separate Aadhaar/PAN documents from a merged KYC pack, isolate a single statement from a yearly bank PDF.

Frequently Asked Questions

How is 'PDF cutter' different from 'PDF splitter'?

Same thing - 'cutter' is the more common search term, especially in India. Our tool does both: cut a PDF into custom page ranges or split it into one-page-per-file outputs.

Can I cut a password-protected PDF?

Unlock it first using our Aadhaar PDF Password Remover (works for any password-protected PDF, not just Aadhaar). Once unlocked, you can cut, split, merge, or compress it like a normal PDF.

Is there a page-count limit?

No fixed limit - bounded by browser memory. Most laptops handle 500+ page PDFs comfortably. Very large scans (1000+ pages, image-heavy) may need to be processed in chunks.
