I want to split my 30 page .PDF into 30 1-page files.

The reason being, I print 30 invoices and the system only wants to print them on paper. Then you send each page to the correct customer.

I do otoh., want to send each single invoice / page as an attachment to an email to the customer.

Any solutions to this challenge will result in a donation via PayPal

We will check this.

Check the directoy PDFCreator\PlugIns\pdfforge.

There should be a script called SplitPDFFile.vbs. Check it out.

Best regards.

I found the SplitPDFFile.vbs, and it creates a testfile and then splits it into 4 separate files.
Great, just what I need. :)

Question now is how do I get PDFCreator to use this on my printfiles?

You are now one answer away from a donation.

You could/should use PDFsam ( www.pdfsam.org) written in Java.

The enhanced version cost a donation of 1€ ..

It has most of the functions wich "normal" users need from the Adobe Proffesional, but Open Souce :-)

 

Best regards

Hi Guys,

After I select the SplitPDFFILE script and click save I get the following error; acces to path: C:\prog files\PDFCreator\Scripts\Runprogramaftersaving\testdocument.pdf denied.

Code: 80070005.

"you can use the script in Actions as "Action after Saving"."
I have done that, but nothing different happens.

There is a parameter in the "Actiuons after Saving", what do I need to put in there?
Now it reads "<OutputFilename>"

Philip,

How is splitPDFFile exactly used? What should I fill in for 'program parameters'?

Thanks!

Hi Kjell,

I've sent you an email with the script SplitPDFFile2.vbs. You can use this script in "Actions after saving" also.

Best regards,

Problem solved.
It now creates i PDF-file per page and keeps the original multipage file as well.

Now comes the next logical question. How can I choose NOT to split the PDF file.

There are occasions when only th single mulitpage file is needed, and if that one is large there will be an awful lot of single-page files that must be deleted.
