About PDF to ZIP

Splitting a PDF usually means extracting a range into one new document. Sometimes what you need is the opposite: every page as its own file, numbered and zipped, ready to be attached, uploaded one at a time, or fed to something that only takes single pages. This tool does that in two ways. As PDFs, each page is copied with its text, fonts and vector artwork intact, so the pieces are still selectable and print at full quality. As PNG or JPG, each page is rasterised at a resolution you choose, which is what portals and print shops often insist on. File names are zero-padded so they sort correctly.

Features

  • One file per page, packaged into a single ZIP download
  • PDF pieces keep their text, embedded fonts and vector artwork
  • PNG or JPG output at 72, 108, 144 or 216 dpi
  • Zero-padded page numbers so files sort correctly everywhere
  • Archive size shown before you download it
  • Handles long documents — up to 200 pages of images in one pass
  • Names every file after the source document, so the pieces stay identifiable

How to use the PDF to ZIP

  1. Drop the PDF onto the page
  2. Choose whether each page should be a PDF, a PNG or a JPG
  3. For images, pick the resolution
  4. Build the archive and download the ZIP

Example

Input

contract.pdf — 12 pages

Output

contract-pages.zip containing contract-page-01.pdf … contract-page-12.pdf

Zero padding keeps page 2 before page 10 in every file manager.

Common errors & troubleshooting

  • The archive is much larger than the original PDF. — Images are the usual cause — rasterising throws away the compact vector description. Choose the PDF option, or drop the resolution.
  • The download did not start. — Very large archives take a moment to assemble in memory. Wait for the button to report the file count and size, then press it.
  • Only some pages are in the archive. — Image output covers the first 200 pages. Split the document into halves first if it is longer than that.
  • The ZIP is bigger than the sum of its parts suggests. — The archive stores its entries without extra compression so it opens instantly everywhere, and PDFs and JPGs are already compressed — re-compressing them would gain almost nothing.

Frequently asked questions

Is my PDF uploaded to be split into an archive?
No. Splitting, rendering and zipping all happen in this tab, so a contract or a set of records stays on your device.
Do the split PDFs keep their text?
Yes. Each page is copied at the object level, so the text stays selectable and searchable and the fonts stay embedded.
What resolution should I choose for printing?
216 dpi is a reasonable floor for print; below that, text edges start to look soft. For screen review, 144 dpi is plenty and keeps the archive small.
How is this different from extracting a page range?
A range extraction gives you one document containing those pages. This gives you one file per page, which is what upload portals and page-at-a-time workflows usually want.
Can I choose which pages go into the archive?
Every page is included here. Extract the range you care about first, then run that shorter document through this tool.
