PDF split

[SaluGithub]

I am new to Filee. I want to split a pdf file into many pages. When I drag and drop in the donut nothing happens. I tried many times its so frustrating. Please help.
Thank you.

Hi @SaluGithub, welcome! Splitting a PDF is built in, so this should work once the donut opens.

How the donut opens

1. Make sure Filee is running. It sits in the tray (Windows) or the menu bar (macOS) after you start it.
2. Hold Ctrl (Option on macOS) and start dragging the PDF.
   Without the key, a drag is an ordinary drag and the donut doesn't appear.
3. Keep holding the mouse button. The donut opens at your cursor.
4. Drop the PDF on Split PDF. You get one PDF per page next to the original.

If you want only some pages, open the Edit group on the same donut and use Pages (Reorder / delete pages) instead. It lets you pick, reorder or delete pages before saving.

If the donut still doesn't open

• Check the key under Settings → Shortcuts → Modifier keys.
• Some apps that run as administrator don't let other apps see the drag. Try dragging from a normal File Explorer window.
• Tell us your OS and Filee version (Settings → About), and where you drag the file from, and we'll look into it.

Closing this one since the steps above should get the donut open.

If it still doesn't open after trying them, please open an issue with:

• your OS and Filee version (Settings → About)
• where you drag the PDF from (File Explorer, desktop, another app)

and we'll dig into it from there.
