Splitting a pdf page

[23dave]

Hi

I receive a magazine in a series of pdf files, one for each page created by the printer (the person not the machine).

Therefore if the magazine has 16 pages the first pdf would contain pages 1 and 16 side by side, the second pages 2 and 15 etc etc.

The position of the divide between "pages" in each pdf is the same in each file. Each pdf file contains only one pdf page of two magazine pages.

Is there a way to create a batch process which will split each pdf file into 2 pdf files, one for each magazine page ?

Many thanks
Dave

You will have to crop half the page then extract, "save as", then undo crop, and crop the other side then "save as".

Or drop the pages into Quark, InDesign Pagemaker etc and re PDF the job

FYI - called 'printers spreads'.
