Some PDFs put two pages on one sheet: two-up scans, booklets, or wide spreads. This tool cuts each page down the middle so every half becomes its own page. Choose a vertical cut for side-by-side pages, or a horizontal cut for stacked ones. Each half is kept as sharp vector content, not a flat image.

How it works

  1. Choose the PDF.
  2. Pick a vertical or horizontal cut.
  3. Click Split in half.
  4. Download the file — it has twice as many pages.

Example uses

  • Turning a two-up scan into single pages.
  • Separating a scanned booklet spread into left and right pages.
  • Splitting a wide landscape sheet into two portrait pages.

Frequently asked questions

Does splitting lose quality?

No. Each half keeps the original vector and text content clipped to that side, so it stays sharp. Nothing is turned into a flat image.

How many pages will I get?

Exactly twice the original page count — every page becomes two halves in reading order.
