FAQ

Can I extract only certain pages? +

Yes. Use ranges such as 1-3,5,8-10. Invalid pages are skipped.

Is split private? +

Yes. The PDF is read and rewritten in the browser. We never receive your file.

What format are the outputs? +

Each output is a valid PDF you can open in any modern reader.

What does “every page as a file” do? +

It creates one PDF per page — useful for batch workflows and form packets.

Will split blur scans? +

No. Page content is copied, not rasterized, so scan quality stays the same.

Is there a page limit? +

Only browser memory. Very large books may need a stronger computer.

Do you keep a copy after I leave? +

No. Processing is in-memory in your tab; closing the tab clears it.

Why use a no-upload PDF tool?

Most free PDF websites ask you to upload contracts, IDs, and invoices to unknown servers. Even if they delete files later, the transfer itself is a privacy risk — and some sites inject watermarks or hard limits.

LocalPDF runs entirely in your browser with open libraries. Your file is never posted to our origin. That also means lower cost for us, so the core tools can stay free while we expand.
