How can I split a pdf into single pages on Windows 10?

Microsoft Print to PDF + is a native feature built into Windows that allows you to split a PDF file into individual pages free; this workaround, which requires no installation, is a convenient system-level solution.

How to Split a PDF file into individual pages free

1. Open the target PDF file using Microsoft Edge, which comes preinstalled with Windows 10.
2. Press the Ctrl + P shortcut to open the print dialog box.
3. Select Microsoft Print to PDF from the printer list.
4. Enter the page number of the page you want to extract in the page number field.
5. Click Print and save that page as a new, separate PDF file.
6. Repeat the above steps for each page you want to separate.

Disadvantages

• The process is entirely manual, and pages must be exported one by one.
• It is inefficient when splitting multi-page PDF files with a large number of pages.
• There is no batch splitting feature, so it is not possible to split all pages at once.

All operations rely on Windows' built-in tools, but you must export pages manually, one by one. If you need to split dozens of pages, this can be time-consuming.

ps

• When printing a single page, make sure to select only one page number for each print job.
• This method is only suitable for splitting a small number of PDF pages.
• Do not close Edge while printing, as this may result in an incomplete saved file.
