Extracted Text Chunks

Prepare Text for AI & Translation

Manually copying text from a PDF page by page is tedious, especially if you need to feed that text into AI tools like ChatGPT or translation software that have character limits. Our PDF Text Splitter automates this process free and online. It extracts the readable text from your document and intelligently splits it into smaller, organized text chunks. You can split by page, by character limit (e.g., every 5000 chars), or by sections, giving you clean .txt files ready for reuse.

Why Use Text Splitter?

FAQ: Extracting and Splitting PDF Text

Q: Does this work on scanned PDFs?

A: Not directly. If your PDF is an image (scan), please use our OCR PDF tool first to recognize the text, then use this tool to split it.

Q: What is the output format?

A: The tool typically generates standard .txt files which can be opened by any text editor (Notepad, TextEdit, etc.).

Q: Can I split by specific pages?

A: Yes. You can choose to extract text only from specific page ranges (e.g., pages 5-10) to avoid unnecessary content.
