# Split PDF for notaries

_Updated July 2026 · Arthize · https://arthize.com/for/notaries/split-pdf_

Arthize lets notaries and signing agents split a PDF in a private workspace — free, with no watermark. Splitting a PDF breaks one document into the pieces you need — by page range, by fixed interval, or one file per page — with no quality loss.

## Why notaries split a PDF

A notary merges a loan package into one file for the appointment, captures signatures and initials, then archives the executed document as PDF/A.

**Built for affidavits.** Whether it's affidavits, acknowledgements, loan packages, Arthize's split pdf keeps the work inside your private workspace. Notarised documents carry identity and financial data; private handling is non-negotiable.

## What matters when you split a PDF

Splitting is lossless because each output keeps the original page objects.

You can extract just a few pages into a new file while leaving the original untouched.

One-file-per-page mode bursts a document into individual pages in a single pass.

3. **Choose how to split** — Pick page ranges (1-3, 4-8), a fixed interval (every N pages), or one file per page.
4. **Download the pieces** — Split and download; each output keeps its original pages unchanged.
