What are people’s thoughts and/or tips regarding splitting a multi-page PDF into a group of single-page PDFs in order to the improve the relevance of DEVONthink’s Classify and See Also results?
Merging PDFs is straightforward in DEVONthink but I haven’t found an easy way to automatically break up a large PDF into a bunch of smaller files.
It would be great if DEVONthink returned a single PDF page when you hit the “See Also” button for a related text chunk, as opposed to the whole PDF document.
I tried to create an Automator script using the “Extract Odd & Even Pages” action to do this. But I couldn’t get it working.
What I finally found was that Adobe Acrobat 8’s “Document > Extract Pages …” feature does the trick. (Apparently, Acrobat 9 has an improved version of this feature called Splitting.)
But I’d like to find something that doesn’t involve using a paid software like Acrobat.
Any thoughts or suggestions?
Thanks!
