Why use Pronto Arquivo
Three ways to split
Extract individual pages, split by ranges (including every page or in half) or split by size to fit an upload limit.
Your file is never uploaded
Splitting happens in your browser. Legal files, contracts and personal documents never touch a server.
No size limit
PDFs over 100 MB or 200 MB aren't blocked. The only limit is your device's memory.
Original quality
Pages are copied as they are, with no recompression. Text stays selectable.
Guides
Split a PDF by size (court e-filing, email, applications)
Court e-filing systems and many online forms cap each file at 5 MB or 10 MB. Choose "By size" and the limit: every part stays under it, with pages in their original order. If a single page is already over the limit, compress the PDF first.
Split every page into its own PDF
Under "By ranges", tap "Split all pages". Each page becomes a separate PDF, all bundled in one ZIP.
Splitting a digitally signed PDF
An extracted part is a new file and won't carry a valid signature. If you need signed parts, split before signing.
