About Split PDF by Text

Split PDF by Text searches every page for your words and splits the document at the pages that match. Start a new file at each match (for chapters) or end a file at each match (for invoices that end with a total). It works on PDFs with selectable text.

Frequently asked questions

Does it work on scanned PDFs?

Only if the PDF has selectable text. Run PDF OCR first on scanned documents.

What does 'start a new file at each match' do?

Each page that contains your text begins a new file that continues until the next match.

Are my files uploaded anywhere?

No. This tool runs in your browser, so your file stays on your device and is never sent to a server.
