    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.
    I couldn't find much information online about this myself, but hammered away until it worked. My code is for a slightly different purpose, but you should easily be able to adjust it for your needs.

  • 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

  • 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 (..) (extract from portfolio) function (...) 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.

    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 ;-)

  • 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

    Hi,

    File one contains page 1 and 2 of the original, file two contains page 3 and 4 etc..

    You need Adobe Acrobat to do so. Splitting a document is not possible with Adobe Reader.

  • Split PDF and use field name for file name

    I have a pdf file with 333 pages that I will be splitting into 333 separate pfd files.  Each file needs a specific name that corresponds to a number located in the header of each individual page.
    Splitting the pdf is easy, unfortunately I can only use a static name for part of the file name and Adobe assigns the remaining portion with: _Part1.pdf; _Part2.pdf ect....  How can I get the "_Part1" to pull in the number located in the header of each individual page?
    I need to have this done before tommarow morning and there is another PDF which will be 555 files after it is split.
    Thanks for any help!

    Yes,
    I also know Profit Center field from R/3.
    However as I've mentioned....
    I need to ADD the field "Profit Center" in this TAB
    I do not even know if this field "Profit center" that I need to ADD is the same field from R/3.
    <b>You know....</b>
    I found "Profit Center"
    screen number: 0200
    program name: SAPLCRM_1O_MANAG_UI
    structure: ZCRMT_0200_BTX_UI01
    field name: ZZCUSTOMER_I0101
    data element: ZEEW_DATAELEMENT0101
    <b>However...</b>
    If I add this field above, the field does not display in the TAB I want. Meaning this field is not working.
    <b>For Instance:</b>
    In the same TAB (I want to add Profit Center), I have the field with:
    - description name field "Services Revenue"
    By pressing F1/Tech Info, I have:
    screen number: 0200
    Program name: SAPLCRM_1O_MANAG_UI
    Structure: ZCRMT_0200_BTX_UI01

    Does anyone has any idea to help me outto fimd Profit Center field?

  • Splitting pdf files

    how can pdf files be split, what is required and what are the steps?

    Furthermore, emailing e-documents is never a good idea; they can get damaged, misdirected, or lost in the process.
    Far better use a file sharing service like Acrobat.com, Dropbox, Google Drive, etc., then send the download link via email.
