Split and merge PDF files online: extract pages or combine documents

A practical guide to cutting a PDF down to just the pages you need, or merging several files into one tidy document — free, 100% in your browser, no uploads.

🌍 This guide is also available in العربية.

✂️ How to split or merge a PDF in 3 steps

1. Open the Split & merge PDF tool on Adawati, Split tab, and load your file — the page count shows instantly.
2. Type the range you want like “1-3, 5” to extract those pages, or switch to the Merge tab, add multiple files and arrange them with the arrows.
3. Click and download: adawati-pages.pdf for extraction, adawati-merged.pdf for merging.

💡 Tips

• Reversed ranges work: “5-3” gives pages 5, 4 then 3 in that order.
• Repeat a page by typing it twice: “2, 2” — handy for printing.
• Merging follows the list order: arrange your files with ↑↓ before downloading.
• Up to 100 MB per file — enough for contracts and catalogues.

🎯 What is it useful for?

• Sending just one page of a long contract instead of the whole file.
• Combining ID photos and documents into a single PDF — and create your invoices with the invoice maker before merging them.
• Splitting a file that is too heavy for WhatsApp or a size-limited email.
