Separate PDFs for multiple page printing

[ginc]

Hi all,

Is there a way to create separate PDFs (one pdf for each page) of multipage document that is printed tp PDF printer?

I do this, but I do it in a separate pass using a free software package called "pdftk" (PDF Toolkit).

Actually, I split based on certain report attributes (the report contains statements, and I split each statement into a separate file as a statement could be multiple pages). The program that creates the statements keeps track of the page numbers and creates a second file containing the information (starting and ending pages numbers, etc., for each specific statement). That second file is used to split the PDF into separate PDFs. It then emails (or attempts to email) each to the proper recipient.

Hope this helps. I'm afraid that I couldn't share my actual code on this, but I think someone with some degree of programming expertise could make something like this to work for them.

Just google "pdftk" and it'll take you to the right spot.

You can add a <pageno> macro in the file name of the PDF.

Example C:\test-<pageno>.pdf

That will split the document. Each page will be a separate PDF file.
