Hi,



I have a 5 page PDF form. I need to save this 5 page form as 5 seperate PDFs. Each PDF will be of one page from the original form. So i need to split the 5 page original PDF into 5 seperate single page PDF. I need to do this as part of my workflow. Please help.

Hi..

you can easily do it by splitting the PDF file.

To split pdf documents you can use many of the available online free tools like

Using Acrobat: Open Pages tab (vertical ones on the side next to Bookmarks, Layers & Signatures) and drag the page or pages to a new folder and rename.

Hello Shivajiv,

   I've been using my print option to save PDF's separately. The newest version doesn't give me the option to extract the pages separately so I've been using the print option by following:

1. Opening the PDF file to the pages you want separated.

2. Clicking the Print button, File:Print or  Control P.

3. On the top it should give you a printer option like HP... SendTo...Fax..etc,. In this drop down menu you'll click Print to PDF or Microsoft Print to PDF.

4. Once you've selected a printer you have to go down to PAGES TO PRINT, select the PAGES option and select the pages you want separated. example page(s) 1; 1-4; 2,5,9,7

5.Finally, click Print on bottom right corner. It will prompt you to select location and new file name. Once Save you can open new document to check or proceed on separating rest of document.

I hope this helps, I've send this way ever since the extract option was taken away.....Good Luck!

The easiest way is to install CudePDF Printer and then print the page you need to that printer, and there you go, you have splitted your original PDF file to single page.

With the Adobe Acrobat Pro DC,,, click on the Document then select tools,,,,,, then Organize,,, then select which page or pages....

Then use the Extract Icon,,, make sure to check individually if you are breaking multiple pages at one time.

Hey, kind of similar to the queries on here I was wondering if anyone can help - at work we have a large acrobat document that are separate letters to be printed however we have to search through once printed for any that have more than one page (Some have 11 per doc) is there any way anyone knows how I can search the file for any documents that have more than one single page and print these separately, delete them out and then print the rest of the document? Thanks

I have Adobe Reader XI, so a lot of the solutions do not work for me ... I am stealing this solution from Mohamed I in another forum that worked easy for me.

Open file using Google Chrome, you can save individual or multiple PDF pages as a single PDF

Hello All,

I personally like this software for splitting out PDF files from one large file. It is from A-PDF.com and it has helped me tremendously! I use to generate statements one by one which took forever....dreaded that time each month. Lol. I finally came across this program and it is seriously a life saver! It allows to customize the file name, edit the file extracted as needed, and you can place whatever constraints you want to be extracted (for the program to look for and extract) based on the pages within the original document. 

Go check it out, I am sure it is exactly what you are looking for: Split PDF files based on content. [A-PDF.com]

Their manual made it fairly easy to pick up and use relatively quick. Hope this helps everyone out like it did me!
