Questions

Will every part be exactly the size I asked for?

No — each part is as large as it can be without exceeding your limit. PDF pages are not uniform, so the parts differ.

What if a single page is larger than the limit?

That page becomes its own part and the tool warns you. Compressing first usually solves it.

Security note

Files are checked to be what they claim (by content, not extension), processed in a sandboxed worker with no network, and deleted on the schedule your plan sets. We do not run antivirus and do not claim to — please do not upload files you do not trust. Read the security page.
