Split a very long PDF into A4 pages

I have a FileMaker report which is generated on the iPad and exported as a PDF but the problem is that FileMaker generates a long pdf of a single page so the whole document is one single page which is of no use as i cannot print it, please suggest a way so that i can split it on A4 pages.

That is exactly what i was looking for but it automatically changes the orientation to landscape i want it to stay portrait, any suggestions?

How to split a parallell-page PDF into single-page PDF

My situation: I have a few hundred pages of files I made quite a few years ago, optimized for "self-publishing" via the printer. I no longer have any source files (my own bad). These files have 2 pages next to each other in an A4 landscape PDF. I would like to change and combine these files into a US Letter portrait PDF.
I have browsed earlier, similar threads, most notably the most referred to thread:
http://forums.adobe.com/message/3331516
which recommends using Adobe PDF printer. However, as this thread points out, and as I for one have found on my own system (10.8.3), Adobe PDF printer is no longer an option on Mac OS X (version 10.6 and on):
http://forums.adobe.com/thread/556366
So the question then is: How do we now split double-page landscape PDFs into single-page portrait PDFs?

Since at least OSX.5 adobe has removed PDF Printer which was begining to fail it was written in Adobe's altered version of javascript and it was a wonder it was working to begin with They replaced it with an Automator action that's called up through the print Driver.
Here are the steps for applications other than Acrobat.
create you doucument. laying it out the way you want it.
Go to Print menu.
click and hold the pdf button - a context menu pops up.
now scan the list of choices and choose Adobe PDF or Adobe Quality PDF (depends on version of OS)
wait for direction fields to come up and make the desired choices (the first screen is basically job options).
when asked ask for name either ecept name give or choose name of your choice.
Browse to desired location for file
then click save.
How the PDF is layed out in acrobat is determinedby acrobat. Adobe add an additional Layer on top of the Print Driver. You can by pass it and use the Print Driver but if there is an orientation switch in your docment the page is turned so everything comes out with same edge of Paper
Oh, look out for a Grand idea Adobe did that even Forest Gump would have left alone.
If you want to do duplex printing to a PDF with more than one page you won't be able to do so whether you have your printer setup for duplex printing. You can go back and forth from printer setting s to Printer setting toggling off and on til you turn blue in the face. You have to go into the document properties and loo for a command called SIMPLEX printing its on by default and needs to be turned off. Even my cat Boots would be smart enough not to put that in.
This settinging does not permanently turn off and you have to do with each document you create or resave.

How do I output a large pdf into single pages for press?

How do I output a large pdf into single pages for press?

It is certainly a good point that, if they need the files separately, and don't even know how to use Acrobat to split it themselves, it might lead one to question their expertise in the PDF field.

Takes a very long time to load pages and is laggy

The new''' FF (4) '''was good at first, but recently it is starting to lack the goodness it once had.
'''It is becoming slower and slower by the day and takes a very long time to load pages. Sometimes the "loading" icon circles for 5 minutes, and whether the page loads or not depends on my luck at that time.'''
Also, it has become seriously '''laggy''':
'''Scrolling''' up and down, typing and '''filling out forms''' (like writing this message) etc have slowed down.
I have deleted the history, and cleared the cache, but to no avail.
Could it be some of the add-ons?
Or is it that FF4 was all hyped up and '''''can't stand to it's name'''''? :)
Please help.
Info: Vista 64-bit, 4GB ram, 2.33GHZ....can't be my computer!

You could try to disable this feature for now by toggling this pref on the <b>about:config</b> page:
*devtools.debugger.source-maps-enabled = false

Is there a way to import a .pdf into a pages document and have it wrap to a 2nd page?

Is there a way to import a .pdf into a pages document and have it wrap to a 2nd page?

Are we talking about a spread? ie the pdf spans 2 pages side by side? Like in a magazine centrefold.
That requires you to insert the pdf on both pages, one hanging half over to the right and the other half over to the left.

How to insert a very long string into a column of datatype 'LONG'

Can anyone please tell me how can I insert a very long string into a column of datatype 'LONG'?
I get the error, ORA-01704: string literal too long when I try to insert the value into the table.
Since it is an old database, I cannot change the datatype of the column. And I see that the this column already contains strings which are very long.
I know this can be done using bind variables but dont know how to use it in a simple query.
Also is there any other way to do it?

How do I create a custom action to split a PDF into multiple pages in Acrobat DC?

I can create a new action to "organize pages" but I don't see any way of specifying split options. (Split being a member of the Organize Pages subgroup in the main tools section...)

Use JavaScript from the Acrobat SDK Sample script below. Note you will need to change the cPath to a location on your hard drive (e.g. /c/Action Folder/ equals the path on your hard drive "C:\Action Folder").
/* Extract pages to folder */
// Regular expression used to acquire the base name of file
var re = /\.pdf$/i;
// filename is the base name of the file Acrobat is working on
var filename = this.documentFileName.replace(re,"");
try {for (var i = 0; i < this.numPages; i++)
          this.extractPages({
               nStart: i,
               cPath: "/F/temp/"+filename+"_" + i +".pdf"
} catch (e) { console.println("Aborted: " + e) }

Convert multiple page pdf into multiple page jpeg

This question was posed several years ago but not answered completely.
I have a 7MB three page PDF document ( a scan ) that I'd like to reduce in size so that I might attach it to an email it easily.
I've tried to "reduce file size" in Preview app's PDF export settings but that renders the document unreadable and useless.
I've tried to Preview export to jpeg but only one page at a time gets exported. This is not acceptable. I want a single three page document.
Otherwise I have to wait 10 minutes for the pdf to attach to my email and God only knows what the recipient thinks when they see "7MB attached document".
BTW I've also tried adding the pdfs to a Word document but that introduced a mismatched document sizing anomaly. WHAT THE HECK!!!! Why can't this be easier???

Anybody know if it's possible to convert a multiple page PDF into ONE TIFF file in Acrobat Pro?

Possible to split one large pdf into multiple pages (in the same pdf?)

I have some well logs that have been scanned - problem is they're coming is as one loooong page in the pdf. Is it possible to split it up into several 8.5 x 11 pages within Acrobat, or do I need special software?

Depends on what you have and the amount of length (a time issue). The simplest way is to use the crop tool to get a page worth and save it, then repeat for the next page, etc. Once all the pages are saved, you can put them back together. You should then use redax or such (print to a new PDF in a pinch) to remove the cropped portions. As I said, this is a bit time consuming, but can do the job. There are likely quicker ways and possibly some 3 party products that can do the job also.

With Firefox 10.0.1 I could no longer pdf a web page. On preview, there is just a blank page.

I save some web pages as pdf files like the page showing which books and when due at my local library. After upgrading to Firefox 10.0.1 I could no longer do this. I can do it from my Safari browser. I use this feature a lot and really miss it. It's a deal breaker for me continuing to use Firefox vs Safari.

Thanks for the tip. Although margins weren't the problem, the page length was. I had occasion to use my 500" long page and failed to change it back to US Letter size. I wouldn't have thought to pursue that avenue if not for your tip. Thanks!

How can we load a flat file with very, very long lines into a table?

Hello:
We have to load a flat file with OWB. The problem is that each of the lines in the file might be up to 30.000 characters long (up to 1.000 units of information in each line, 30 characters long each)
Of course, our mapping should insert these units of information as independent rows in a table (1.000 rows, in our example).
We do not know how to go about it. We usually load flat files using table functions, but we am not sure that they will be able to cope with these huge lines. And how should we pivot those lines? Will the Pivot operator do the trick? Or maybe we should pivot those lines outside the database before loading them?
We are a bit lost. Any suggestion would be appreciated.
Regards

Yes, well, we could define a 1.000 column external table, and then map those 1.000 columns to the Pivot operator… perhaps it would work. But we have been investigating a little bit, and we think that we have found a better solution: there is a unix utility called “fold”. This utility can split our 30.000 character lines in 1.000 lines, 30 characters long each: just what we needed. Then we can load the resulting file using an external table.
We think this is a much better solution that handling 1.000 columns in the external table and in the Pivot operator.
Thanks for your help.

Best workflow for splitting up a long video into series of short videos

I've got an hour worth of footage, a series of speakers, each who speak about 3 min. I want each speaker to be a separate video on youtube.
What's the fastest workflow for doing this?
Also, why does youtube export take so long in Final Cut Pro? It's excruciating.

Make four separate sequences and edit each speaker into a separate sequence.
Export to QuickTime Movie. Take that to Compressor and use the template there.
