Split PDF into multiple files based on number of pages

[AndyD]

Hello friends,
Looking for a little input from this community on this.
I would like to be able to take a source PDF file and split into multiple/individual PDF files every 39 pages.
(e.g. if the source file has 507 pages, this would get split into 13 different files, each 39 pages.)
I've been trying to accomplish this with an action list, but am net seeing a way to do it.
Appreciate any thoughts you all might have!
Thanks,
Andrew

Hello,

You would need PitStop Server (with included Switch) for that. Not in Pro alone.

Like loicaigon said, you can't split it using PS Pro. Only option without switch is to use the 'organize pages' option in Acrobat Pro, select Split and put the number of pages per.

Hi Andrew,

I don't know how to solve this task with PitStop either.

But you could run a JavaScript directly in Adobe Acrobat to achieve this.
I have prepared an Adobe Acrobat action (sequence) that you can import and run via the Action Wizard.
It writes the separated PDF files to the directory in which the currently opened PDF is located.

Here is the download of the action Split into multiple PDF files every 39 pages.sequ:
