Split PDF by Bookmark for researchers
Updated July 2026
Arthize lets researchers and academics split a PDF by bookmarks in a private workspace — free, with no watermark. Splitting by bookmark divides a document at its chapter or section markers, producing one file per bookmarked section automatically.
Why researchers split a PDF by bookmarks
A researcher merges a paper with its appendices, extracts a results table into Excel for re-analysis, and compresses the figure-heavy submission under a journal's upload limit — privately.
Built for papers. Whether it's papers, datasets, appendices, Arthize's split pdf by bookmark keeps the work inside your private workspace. Unpublished work and grant applications are confidential; a private workspace keeps them out of public tools.
What matters when you split a PDF by bookmarks
Splitting by bookmark uses the document's own structure to define the cuts.
It saves counting page ranges for chaptered documents.
Each section becomes its own file.
