After checking the page count, dimensions and selectable text, the tool offers one ZIP containing all sections.
How the sections are named
Each filename contains the original name, its sequence number and its page range. This keeps the files in the correct order after extraction.
Choosing the right split points
Mark each page that should begin a new file. The first section always starts on page one, and every later marker closes the preceding section.
To keep only selected pages, use Extract pages from PDF instead. To discard pages, use Remove pages from PDF.
File size after splitting
Each part includes the fonts and resources used by its pages, so the combined size may be slightly larger than the original file.
If one part must fit an attachment limit, process that part separately with the Compress PDF tool.
