Can it split automatically at each new order?

No. The cut is decided by page position, not by reading what is printed on the page - it does not know that one order's paperwork ends on page 7 and the next begins on page 8. When a marketplace file has a fixed shape, two pages per order, "every 2 pages" does that job exactly. When it varies, use the at-chosen-pages mode and click the starts.

Why does everything come down as one ZIP?

Because handing a browser forty downloads at once means a row of permission prompts, files arriving in an unpredictable order, and on some browsers everything after the first being blocked as a popup. One archive is one prompt and one thing to move into a folder.

What happens if I split a 400-page file into one file per page?

You get 400 PDFs inside one ZIP. Each is written in turn with a progress line, which takes a minute or so on a normal laptop. If you only wanted a handful of those pages, extracting them is the faster job.

Is the original file changed?

No. It is read, never written. The pieces are new documents built from copies of the pages, and the file you dropped in is exactly as it was when you close the tab.

Can I split several PDFs in one go?

No, this one works on a single file at a time - the page grid, the cut marks and the preview list all describe one document. If you have a morning batch and an afternoon batch to divide the same way, merge them first and split the result.

Does the file get uploaded to be split?

No. The pages are read, cut and packed into the ZIP by this browser tab on your own computer. Nothing about the orders inside it - names, addresses, phone numbers - is transmitted, because there is no upload path in the product at all.

Split one PDF into several files

One label PDF, two packers. A 180-page manifest that has to reach three couriers as three separate sheets. An accountant who wants one month per file rather than the year. Splitting is how a single download turns into work that can be handed out.

This cuts a PDF three ways: every few pages, at pages you pick, or one file per page. Before anything is written you see the exact list of files you are about to get, named and with their page counts, because "split into 40 files" is not a thing anyone wants to discover from their downloads folder.

How it works

Add the PDF. One file at a time. Every page is drawn as a thumbnail, and the pictures fill in as you scroll, so a 600-page manifest opens straight away instead of freezing the tab.
Choose where the cuts go. Every few pages, with the number of pages per file set beside it; at chosen pages, where each page you pick starts a new file; or one file per page.
Check the list before you commit. The stage names every file you will get and how many pages is in it - order-labels-p1-10.pdf, 10 pages - listing the first forty in full and counting the rest.
Export. Each file is written in turn with progress as it goes, and the whole set comes down as one ZIP named after the original.

What it handles

Equal chunks, with the last file taking whatever remains
Cutting at chosen pages, typed as 4, 9, 15 or clicked on the thumbnails themselves - the page that starts a new file is marked in the grid
One file per page, for when every page is a separate document
Output named for the input and the pages inside it: manifest-p11-20.pdf
A full preview of the files and their page counts before a single byte is written
Everything arrives as one ZIP, so there is one browser prompt rather than forty
Pages are copied, not re-rendered - a label split out of a batch prints exactly as it did in the batch

Your files stay on your computer

This runs inside your browser tab. The file is read and written on your own device and is never uploaded — not the order PDF, not the customer names and addresses printed on it. There is no upload endpoint to send it to.
