One file per bookmark

Ebooks, manuals, and reports already carry their chapter map as bookmarks. Split on them and each chapter downloads as its own PDF, named after its bookmark.

Local split, no upload

Bookmark reading and splitting run entirely in your browser. Your documents are never uploaded to any server.

Frequently asked questions

Which bookmarks are used?

Top-level outline entries by default, with an option to split at every nesting level.

What if my PDF has no bookmarks?
