Frequently Asked Questions
Can I split encrypted or password-protected PDFs?
You can split password-protected PDFs once you unlock the document with its valid authorization password in your browser.
Does splitting a PDF damage bookmarks or hyperlinks?
Internal links within the retained page range are preserved, while links referencing excluded pages are safely handled.
How fast is client-side splitting compared to cloud tools?
