Splitting turns one large PDF into several smaller ones. You can split by page range, such as pages 1 to 4 and 5 to 9, by bookmark so each chapter becomes a file, or into single pages.

Decide first how the parts will be used. A contract bundle that goes to different people splits well by range, a long manual by bookmark. Check the first and last page of each part after the split.
