Split a PDF by chapters: ranges that survive review cycles
Published
When one export serves many stakeholders, splitting by page ranges keeps attachments small and intent clear.
Annual reports and handbooks often mix sections that different teams need separately. Email limits and access policies favor smaller PDFs per chapter.
Define ranges from the TOC
Match page numbers to the PDF viewer’s toolbar count (1-based). Note whether the cover is page 1 or unnumbered.
Split vs extract
Same engine: list pages to keep in the new file. Repeat per chapter.
