What's the difference between split by range and split into single pages?

Split by range lets you extract custom intervals (e.g. 1-3, 5, 8-10) into one or several PDFs. Split into single pages produces one PDF per page.

Will the original file be modified?

Never. Splitting creates new files; your original PDF stays untouched on your device.

Can I split a 1,000-page PDF?

Yes. The browser-based engine has been tested with documents up to 2,000 pages on a typical laptop.

My Split PDF job is stuck on "processing".

Refresh the page and try again. Browser-side processing depends on your device's CPU and RAM, so closing other tabs usually helps.

The downloaded file looks different from the preview.

Clear your browser cache and re-run the job. Outdated cached fonts can occasionally cause rendering glitches. If the issue persists, email us a sample to help@pdfwix.com.

Can I undo a Split PDF operation?

Your original file is never modified — PDFWix always produces a new file. Just discard the new version and start again with the original.
