PDF Split

PDF Split

Type: pdf-split · Package: PDF Activities v1.0.0 · Output: List

Separates each page of a PDF into a separate file, and returns the list of files created. Useful when you receive a batch of documents in a single PDF (one page per document) and need to process them separately.

How it works

Create a PDF for each page of the original document in the outputDir folder, naming them with a prefix (by default, the name of the source file) followed by the page number. Returns the list of created routes.

Required parameters

Parameter	Editor	Description
`path`	expression	Source PDF path.
`outputDir`	expression	Folder where to save the separate pages.

Optional parameters

Parameter	Editor	Description
`prefix`	expression	Name prefix for files. By default, the source name without extension.

Output

Returns a List with the paths of the created files (one per page).

Example

Separate a batch and process each page:

PDF Split   path = = ruta   outputDir = "C:/separados"   → output: paginas
For Each   items = = paginas   itemVariable = pagPdf
 └─ activities:
      PDF Get Text   path = = pagPdf   → output: texto
      ... procesar cada documento ...

PDF Extract Pages — extract a range to a single PDF.
PDF Merge — the reverse operation: merge.
