Split a PNG Into Rows, Columns or Tiles

Cut one image into a grid, vertical columns, or horizontal rows, with a live preview of the cut lines. Sprite sheets, scans and contact sheets come apart without a desktop editor, and without uploading.

How to split a PNG image in three steps

See the cut before you commit to it:

1

Load one image

PNG, JPG or WebP. A blue overlay draws the exact cut lines on a live preview.

2

Set the grid

Columns, rows, or both for a tile grid. Up to 20 in each direction, which is enough for any sprite sheet.

3

Download the pieces

Files come out named by row and column (r2c3 and so on). Take them one by one or as a single ZIP.

The mechanics

What splitting an image means here

Split PNG jobs divide the canvas into equal rectangles and copies each rectangle onto its own canvas, then encodes each one as a fresh PNG. Cuts are computed on the original pixel grid, so when you split PNG files the pieces add back up to exactly the source image. For sprite sheets, that means tiles keep their true pixel dimensions rather than being resampled.

Equal divisions, no resampling

A 1200-pixel image split into 3 columns yields three 400-pixel images, pixel for pixel from the source. Nothing is scaled, so tiles stay crisp for game and web use.

Uneven dimensions divide safely

If a dimension does not divide evenly, the last row or column absorbs the remainder, and every piece is at most one pixel off nominal. No piece is stretched to force round numbers.

Preview the cut first

The overlay grid updates as you change counts, so you can align cuts to content boundaries before generating anything.

What the splitter includes

A precise knife, nothing more.

Grid, columns or rows

Two numbers cover every slicing pattern from strips to tiles.

Live cut-line preview

Blue overlay lines show exactly where the image divides.

Up to 20 by 20

400 tiles from one image, enough for sprite atlases.

Row-and-column naming

Pieces are named r1c1 through rNcM so ordering is unambiguous.

ZIP download

One archive when a job has many pieces.

Local processing

The image stays on your device while being cut.

Goes well with: merge PNG back together, resize the tiles, compress them, send to PDF.
