How to Split a Supplier Catalog PDF

Suppliers love to send one enormous master catalog — 200 pages covering every category they carry. But you only sell a handful of those lines, and scrolling past pages of irrelevant stock every time you re-order is a waste. Split the catalog down to just what you need with QuickWand's free PDF splitter.

How to split a supplier catalog PDF

1. Open the Split PDF tool and drop in the catalog.
2. Choose a split mode:
   • Page range — type the pages a category spans (e.g. 45-72) to pull just that section into its own PDF. Use commas for scattered pages like 3, 8, 15.
   • All pages — explode the entire catalog into one PDF per page, bundled as a ZIP, when you want every product on its own sheet.
3. Click Split PDFand download. The operation runs entirely in your browser, so the supplier's confidential pricing never gets uploaded.

Smart ways sellers split a catalog

• Build a personal re-order sheet. Extract only the pages for the lines you actually stock so re-ordering is fast.
• Share the right pages with staff. Send a packer or VA the five pages they need rather than the whole 200-page file.
• Separate price lists from product shots. If pricing lives on the last few pages, extract those into a quick-reference PDF.
• Trim before forwarding to a customer.Never expose your supplier's identity or your cost — pull only the product pages, then rebrand them.

Finding the right page numbers fast

Open the catalog in any PDF viewer first and note the page numbers where each category starts and ends — use the viewer's page count, not the printed page numbers, which often differ because of cover and intro pages. Then enter that range in the splitter.

Once you have your trimmed sections, you can recombine the categories you care about into a single tidy reference with the PDF merger.
