Questions

Are my files uploaded to a server?

No. The file is read by your browser and processed in the page. It never reaches a server, so there is no upload to wait for, no queue, and no copy of your document sitting somewhere with a retention policy.

What page range formats are accepted?

Single pages (7), ranges (3-8), and comma-separated combinations of the two (1-5, 12, 20-24). Pages are written in the order the document has them.

Can I split one PDF into several files at once?

Each run produces one file from one selection. To break a document into several pieces, run the tool once per range.

Is the text still selectable afterwards?

Yes. Pages are copied rather than re-rendered, so text, fonts and vector content survive exactly as they were.
