Split one scanned batch into separate PDFs
Quick answer
Upload a multi-page PDF and Filly breaks it into one file per page, delivered as a single .zip. It's built for the case where a scanner produced one long file from a stack of unrelated documents that now need separating.
When you’d use this
One scanner run, several clients
Feeding a stack through a document feeder produces a single PDF containing everyone's paperwork. Splitting it gives you a file per page so each document can be filed against the right client profile.
Pulling one form out of a packet
When you only need the signature page or a single completed form from a long submission, split the packet and keep the page you need rather than sending the whole thing.
How to do it
- 1Open the PDF tools and choose Split.
- 2Select the multi-page PDF.
- 3Run it and download the .zip, which contains one PDF per page.
What it doesn’t do
Split produces one file per page — it does not detect where one document ends and the next begins. If your batch has multi-page documents inside it, use the page-selection tool to keep specific ranges instead.
Frequently asked questions
How do I split a PDF into separate files?
Open Filly's PDF tools, choose Split, and select your PDF. It returns a .zip containing one PDF per page. The free plan covers it and nothing is installed.
Can I split a PDF into ranges rather than single pages?
Use the page-selection tool instead. It lets you keep or remove specific pages and ranges, which is the right tool when a batch contains multi-page documents that should stay together.
Are my documents kept after splitting?
Files are processed to produce your download and are not used to train AI models. See the security page for how storage, encryption and deletion work.
The tools are the side of it
Filly is a form filler first: save a client’s details once and every form you upload afterwards fills itself from that profile. These PDF tools exist because the paperwork around a filing needs assembling before and after it’s filled.
