Break long files into useful pieces

Use Split PDF when a document is too large to share comfortably or when each section needs to travel as its own file. Custom ranges work well for chapter packets, contracts, and grouped exhibits.

If you only need a smaller kept subset rather than several separate files, Extract PDF may be a better fit. If you want to remove specific pages and keep the rest together, use Delete PDF Pages.
