Can I export an InDesign document to multiple PDFs?

CS3 here. Soon to be CS 5.5.... but I have a 13 page document. Our print provider needs me to upload each page separately on their website. Ugh. Is there a way to export to PDF from ID CS3 and have each page be it's own separate PDF file? Or do I have to do it manually?

There’s a script floating around but it’s easier to export one PDF and then use the extract pages command in Acrobat to make single pages.

  • Trying to export my indesign document into a PDF that is 2.5 MB and still includes hyperlinks

    I need to create a file size that is 2.5 MB. When I export on the lowest quality, it is too low in resolution (about 1.5 M), but if i choose other presents, they are both WAY bigger file sizes and will not let me include anything interactive, including hyperlinks. Is there a solution to this problem?

    Set the resolution to 96 ppi

  • When I export an indesign document the graphics are missing from the eps file.

    When I export an indesign document the graphics are missing from the eps file.

    The why it isn't working can be a number of reasons. While I never have exported an EPS out of ID before, I just tried it and it worked fine.
    What "graphics" are missing? I used bitmaps, native drawn ID vector, lines and a placed EPS file. Came into AI as an opened EPS fine.
    Links up to date? For items not hitting the EPS, are they on a layer set to non-printing?
    In the export dialog,General tab, PostScript Level 3? Data format set to ASCII? On the Advanced tab, Send Data set to All? OPI off?

  • Export to PDF - Can a single report (rpt file) create multiple PDF files using the export command?

    Post Author: markeyjd2
    CA Forum: Exporting
    Greetings forum members,
    My question is, in its entirety: Can a single report (rpt file) create multiple PDF files using the export command, ideally one PDF file per DB record?
    In my case; I have a Crystal Report that reads data from a DB table containing ~ 500 records.  When I export the report to a PDF file, I get one PDF file, with ~ 500 pages.
    What I would like to do is export the report to ~ 500 individual PDF files; One file per DB record.  The file names would be based on the table's primary key.
    Is this possible?

    Hi,
    you need some lines of code, but its easy. Dependend on how to start the generation of your 500 PDFs, you can write an ASP page and start it via Web Browser, or a Windows Script and start it via scheduled job...
    Here's an abstract of the ASP code I use:
    First, you create a recordset (here: "rsc") which gives you the list of ID fields you want to export, then you create CrystalRuntime.Application object, then you loop through the recordset, open your report (here: "oRpt") and set login info. Then set the selectionformula, so that the report displays only the data of the current ID, e.g.:
      oRpt.RecordSelectionFormula = "(" & oRpt.RecordSelectionFormula & ") AND {myTab.myVal}=" & rsc("myVal")
    Then you export the report, move to the next record in recordset, and repeat the loop until recordset.EOF. Then you close recordset and connection.

  • Convert a word document to multiple PDF documents

    Hello
    I would like to convert a word document to multiple PDF documents. (i.e. convert 20 page word document into 20 single page PDF's). Is it possible to do this easliy and quickly.
    I have used word mail merge to create multiple cover letters in word
    I would now like to convert each cover letter (which is 1 page each) into individialized PDF's so that I can email them out as attachments
    I currently have been copying and pasting from my master word document into a fresh word document (one page at a time) then, saving, then converting to PDF one cover letter at a time. Although this works it is time consuming and I figured there may be an easier quicker way to do this
    Any thoughts, suggesstions, would be greatly appreciated
    Thanks

    It is possible to convert the word document into a PDF then while the PDF is open do:
    Document
    Extract Pages
    1-20
    Check "Extract pages as seperate files"
    This will give you 20 seperate files.
    Hope it helps!

  • Need help with Adobe documents - emailing multiple PDFs

    Can anyone out there help an old man? I'm new to all things Adobe but the only thing I can't seem to master is sending multiple PDFs in a single email, from Adobe documents. What am I missing here?

    Hi Craig,
    You can either Create a pdf portfolio of those files and send a single file to the user or you can select all the files you want to send at once while uploading and then send them in one go.
    Please revert back if you still face challenges in sending multiple pdf files at once.

    If you are using Mac, press Apple + I to get the information. It show a table. There is a section call Open with. Change the file with pdf icon to open with indesign. If using PC, just click on the second button on the mouse and open with Indesign.

  • "Save as PDF" breaks up the document into multiple PDFs

    Ever since my Lion install, when I open a doc in MSWord and try to "Save as PDF", it breaks up the document into multiple PDFs, not one saved PDF. Haven't seen this problem before. Anyone else experiencing this new "feature"?

    What version of Word?  It's working fine with my Word 2011 on Lion.  (version 14.1.2.  Applied SP1 and the .2 update.)
    A workaround would be to print, then select the PDF dropdown in the lower corner of the print window.
    Otherwise, you'll probably want to ask in the Microsoft forums, as Save As is using Word's programming code, not OSX's code like it does with the print function.

  • How can one resize a inDesign Document Window without moving Document's position?

    I've searched high and low for an answer to this habit that inDesign has. Am I the only one that finds this annoying?
    You go to adjust the size of your document window to move it out of the way to get to something else on your desktop, and instead of keeping the document in place and just resizing the window, it moves the document with the resize. Not sure if I'm putting this in a way that people can understand me. Say I have two inDesign files open side by side and I zoom in on an area and adjust my view of the page. Then I go to the other inDesign document and adjust the view by grabbing the bottom right hand corner of the window and moving it to where I want it. The whole document then moves with it! I desire it not to, so now I have to waste time by using the hand tool to move it back into place. Illustrator doesn't act like this. Photoshop doesn't act like this. Only inDesign. Does this harken back to the PageMaker days? Am I missing a preference somewhere I need to change? Or is it just the way of things and I'm stuck with it?
    Currently using inDesign CS5 and CS6 on a Mac in OS 10.6.8

    Hi,
    The simplest would be to set the application preferences in the script.
    Like this :
    -- *** set prefs ****
    tell application "AppleWorks 6"
          activate
          set oldPrefs to its preferences
          copy oldPrefs to tPrefs
          tell tPrefs
                set old version warning to false --doesn't show the old version warning alert  
                set converted file suffix to true -- append “[v6.0]” to documents converted from older formats
                set locked file warning to false
                set paint reduction warning to false
          end tell
          set preferences to tPrefs
    end tell
    -- *** end set prefs ****
    --**** your script, example ***
    set tfiles to choose file with multiple selections allowed
    tell application "AppleWorks 6"
          repeat with i in tfiles
                open i
                tell front document
                      -- do something
                end tell
          end repeat
    end tell
    --**** end  your script ***
    -- *** reset prefs ****
    tell application "AppleWorks 6" to set preferences to oldPrefs
