Split pdf base on barcode

Hello,
We scanned our document papers into a single pdf file.
I would like to be able to split the pdf file into smaller pdf files base on separator sheets when the file is upload it into our intranet.
I'm not sure where to start, does anyone know what API I can use to accomplish this task in php or asp?
thanks.

How to split pdf files also how to downsize a pdf file?

how to split pdf files also how to downsize a pdf file?

Hi Ali,
If the PDF file you're starting with is larger than 100MB, ExportPDF won't be able to convert it.
To convert a file of that size and to create separate files, you'll need Adobe Acrobat. You'd need Acrobat to divide the file into smaller chunks for ExportPDF anyhow, so Acrobat is probably the best solution for you. You can learn more about Acrobat here: http://www.adobe.com/products/acrobat.html
Kindest regards, Stacy

Splitting PDF Document in several Pages

Hi ABAPers!
I'd like to break up a PDF document - which contains more than one page - into a single PDF document for each page (e.g. one big PDF document with 100 pages should become 100 PDF documents containing one page).
Does anyone know an internet source, where I can obtain more information regarding PDF formats in general (ideally with ABAP)?
I am familiar with reading of PDF, converting from OTF, et cetera. I either need a splitting tool like a report/function module (shipped with the SAP standard?) or a "how-to" manage splitting PDF documents. Also custom ABAP coding is welcome.
Any help is appreciated. Points are given in return.
Best regards

Split PDF Files by Bookmarks

Can anyone please let me know how do I split PDF Files by bookmark using Java Script.
I am making a Visual Basic utility to read the bookmarks in PDF Files and split them based on the bookmarks. I am able to split the PDF Files by using Arts PDF Split Pro. However since I am already using Adobe Standard, I would like to do it with Adobe itself.
Thus, I pay license for only one software and not two.
Thanks
Rahul

I couldn't find much information online about this myself, but hammered away until it worked. You should easily be able to adjust it for your needs.

Script to Split PDF files on Bookmarks

I'm totally new to Java scripting. What I'm looking for is a script I can run from batch processing with professional that will look at a collection files in s directory and split ech one of them on their bookmarks into smaller files.
The bookmarks are all based on the page so it is possible to use the bookmark object's "execute" method to execute the bookmark action and pickup the page number.
I read that last part somewhere. If someone can give me a reference to a thread or just some code to get me started that would help. Thanks,
Josh

5 years later... hopefully this helps someone out there.

How to split PDF file by pages

Is there any programming way to split PDF into pages, say one PDF file per page or specify page range to split PDF file?
Thanks for your help.

Yes it does. It disassembles pdf1 by extracting pages 1-3 and disassembles pdf2 by extracting pages 4-5. Then re-assembles the two subsets into a new PDF.
You could extract page1 from pdf1 only and create a pdf, then page2 of pdf1 into a different PDF using something similar to:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<DDX xmlns="http://ns.adobe.com/DDX/1.0/">
<PDF result="Final.pdf">
     <PDF source="PDF1.pdf" pages="1"/>
</PDF>
<PDF result="Final2.pdf">
      <PDF source="PDF1.pdf" pages="2"/>
</PDF>
</DDX>
You can also use the PDFFromBookmarks tag to generate a new document for each level 1 bookmark created in a PDF.
<PDFsFromBookmarks prefix="stmt">
     <PDF source="doc1.pdf"/>
</PDFsFromBookmarks>

Does oracle ucm license allow to use itext libraries for splitting pdf

Hello,
we want to create a component which uses the itext component for splitting pdf files. The itext component comes with the oracle ucm 11g standard installation.
Our question would be, if it is allowed to use the itext libraries for our own needs, since the libs come with the standard ucm installation.
Where can we find out?
Greetings
Bodhy

My understanding is you will require additional licences for the new installation in production. However, I am not an Oracle employee, a licencing expert or a lawyer, so I advise you to discuss this with your Oracle account manager.
Cheers, APC

Flattened PDF Form and Barcode not displaying

I see there are a lot of discussions that are not answered in this forum, so I am guessing this will go unanswered as well. But I am looking for a solution for the issue in the subject. I have a simple PDF form built in LiveCycle that I am populating with Coldfusion. Once the form is populated I then flatten the form. The barcode appears up to the flattening point which is when it disappears. The characters that populated the barcode field ARE displaying but the image is not.
Is there a solution?

How are you flattening the forms? I'm assuming PDFg or Output?
Also, be sure your barcode looks something like this:
<field name="PDF417BarCode1" y="50.8mm" w="66.7mm" h="25.4mm" access="readOnly">
<
ui><
barcode type="pdf417" dataLength="10" moduleWidth="0.0133in" moduleHeight="0.02661in" errorCorrectionLevel="5"/></
ui><
value><
text>1234567890</text></
value></
field>
and not...
<field name="PaperFormsBarcode1" w="82.55mm" h="44.45mm" access="readOnly"><
ui><
barcode type="pdf417" moduleWidth="0.338mm" moduleHeight="0.676mm" errorCorrectionLevel="5">
<?templateDesigner decodeMethod 2?>
<?templateDesigner delimiter '\t'?></barcode></
ui><
calculate><
script contentType="application/x-javascript">
...completely void of script and the value in only the <text> element.

Split PDF portfolio, with a catch however

What I have:
One PDF portfolio containing multiple PDF files with a varying number of pages
What I am trying to achieve:
Split or disassemble the PDF portfolio into single PDF files (not into single pages!)
The problem:
I created the PDF portfolio using outlook to make a backup of an inbox. Therefore every PDF file that is in the portfolio is a PDF printout of an email. And this is where it becomes problematic for me as some emails had the the same subject. As a result there are numerous PDF files in the portfolio that have the same file name. This leads to a finder (or explorer, depending on the operating system,) conflict when I am using the export function of Acrobat Reader and I am only offered the two following choices: skip (the export of this file) or overwrite (the other PDF file with the same name). I am not offered to "keep both". As I have several portfolios of this type and each contain hundreds of emails the extent of this problem is too big to be fixed manually. I am therefore looking for an automated solution to this problem.
Tech Specs:
Software: Adobe Reader 11.0.10
Operating system: OS X Yosemite (10.10.2)
I also have access to a PC running Windows 7.
Thank you!

Thank you @sukritd15 @CtDave!
I just finished activating my copy of Adobe Acrobat 11 Pro which I bought in the meantime. Unfortunately the problem persists.
"there are numerous PDF files in the portfolio that have the same file name. This leads to a finder (or explorer, depending on the operating system,) conflict when I am using the (..)

Do you have any suggestions how I proceed from here?
Thank you!

Split PDF - read-only error

I am trying to split a PDF document on the top level bookmarks that I have created. I created all of the bookmarks using the file name that I want to output. I go to document, split document, select Top-level bookmarks and output options and select use bookmark names for file names and unselect "Do not overwrite existing files" and then click OK.
It creates about 12 of my 80-something bookmarks and then tells me that there is an error and it is read-only and will not split the rest of the document. I have saved-as under different names, in different locations and keep getting the same error message. The document that I am splitting is not read only, it is not protected. I have no idea why it won't continue to split the rest of the document. Any suggestions?

If it happens always at a specific location check if there's something out
of the ordinary with that bookmark. For example, does it contain any weird
characters in its name? Is it identical to another bookmark (or even to the
name of the document itself)?
I would think the application could handle those situations, but maybe it
can't...

Splitting PDF looses hyperlinks created in InDesign

I have InDesign created links in my TOC to page. I'm doing a 24 page x 200 data merge 50 or so at a time. I then create a PDF of the 50. The links work on the original combined PDF, but when I either extract the others or use PDF Split and Merge, all PDFs except the first one loose there links. The curser recognizes a like, but does not work. Help.
Thanks, Jon

good question ;-)

LiveCycle PDF Forms and Barcode Fields

Ive also posted this subject on the LiveCycle forum but thought I would reach out to my fellow CF'ers. So here's my issue, Im using Coldfusion to populate a LiveCycle form that contains a barcode field. The barcode disappears when the form is flattened. The image of the barcode disappears, but the value of the barcode displays.
Anyone experience this type of issue? As always, all and any advice is appreciated.
Thanks ahead of time.

No version of Reader can save a filled in form unless it has been enabled first.
To enable, open the file in Acrobat then go to Advanced>Enable usage rights in Adobe Reader...
And for my standard disclaimer, if you are going to use the forms in a corporate environment, be sure to study and understand the usage limits for enabled forms (the limit is 500 uses, but there are caveats to that) in the EULA. Mostly the enabled forms are meant for very small time users. If you do not meet that requirement, Adobe sells another product that can enable files for unlimited uses but it costs in the tens of thousands of dollars and is a server side solution.
Hey Graffii,
I enabled the usage rights and that did help with saving in Reader 7. I am a little concerned about the limit of 500 uses. Let me try and understand you a little better. I have a PDF that has a couple form fields and you're saying that the PDF can only be opened 500 times? I've never heard of restrictions on PDFs before. Does this happen after you place just 1 form field? How do I find out more information? I looked in the EULA, but found nothing.
Also, what does Adobe mean here "Enable users of Adobe Reader® (version 8 or later) to fill in and save PDF forms locally." Are they saying that you need Reader 8 or later to read a form or that you need Acrobat Pro 8 or later to enable the form feature?
It's all very confusing because one of the features they tout in version 9 is the ability to save forms locally, but once I enable the form I could save it with Reader 7. It's hard to tell if they are referring to Reader 9 or Acrobat Pro 9.
Thanks

Split PDF following preserving existing bookmarks

Hello,
Is it possible to split a PDF using Acrobat XI by top level bookmarks, while retaining existing bookmarks in the resulting files?
With the default split it creates the new PDF's, but looses the bookmarks.
Thanks for any suggestions.
PS: I am on a Mac platform

If it happens always at a specific location check if there's something out
of the ordinary with that bookmark. For example, does it contain any weird
characters in its name? Is it identical to another bookmark (or even to the
name of the document itself)?

Split PDF by pages using command line options

Hi,
I am after a product to split a PDF file by pages / bookmark using command line options. It would be good, if the product comes with functionality to call from VB/.NET SDK.
I googled and came across many products, out of these following looks good. Has anyone used this. Please suggest me.
