PDF Splitter Tools - Making Electronic Document More Manageable

Let’s be honest. It is sometimes annoying to have plenty of pages in one document file when you just need a couple of them. Aside from making things harder to find as you turn the pages, the file size can also be too big. Fortunately, you can now use any PDF Splitter Tools available to make the use of this electronic document more manageable.

If you don’t have any idea of what to use, there are tools that will help you extract pages from pdf. Here are some of the sites you can visit to split pdf online.

1. 2pdf.com

This is one of the newest websites that has a comprehensive list of pdf tools that one can use. There are plenty of advanced tools that will be available soon, but most basic ones are ready to use. This includes the split pdf function. It starts by uploading the pdf file by choosing from the file directory or dragging them to the dedicated box on the page. Once done, the system will show the pages and would let the user put a dotted cutting element to enable the split function. Click the red button with a ‘Split PDF’ label, and 2pdf.com will start downloading the split pdf.

2. I Heart PDF

Another website offering free access to pdf tools is I Heart PDF (or IheartPDF to some). If you are wondering why the service is free, it's because larger file processing will require a paid subscription. The split pdf function works the same as 2pdf.com, with an additional option to upload from Google Drive or Dropbox. There is also a desktop and mobile app version available of the website, but accessing them will require a premium plan. The cheapest plan starts at US$4 monthly, where users can use all the services offered by the site.

3. Soda PDF

Soda PDF is another popular website that already gained popularity with those who need pdf tools. Essential services for pdf files that they offer are edit, merge (and compress), convert to another file format, Optical Character Recognition (OCR), and of course – Split PDF. Choose the file to split from the device’s file directory or drag it to the dedicated area of the page. Once uploaded, select the pages you would like to keep. The final file can be downloaded on your device or through a link that will be sent to your email (optional). Services go the same with IheartPDF, where a subscription is required for advanced PDF tools that start at US$4.15 per month (billed yearly).

It is recommended to keep an original file before uploading them to these websites, as these changes can be irreversible. Whatever website you choose to use, always make sure that you have a backup in case something happens. This happens when there are connection problems or unexpected issues from the upload, resulting in the files being corrupted. Don't worry about security when visiting these websites, as they promise that these pdf tools are secure and anyone cannot access the files except for you.
