Hi,

I would like to split a 200 pages PDF document into 200 unique PDF files. Is there any easy and fast way to do this?

Thank you

The previous solution does not seem to work in the latest version of Automator, as the actions seem to have changed. Here's what I did:

  1. Open Automator and create a new Workflow
  2. Drag the PDF(s) you'd like to split into the right pane
  3. In the sidebar, under Library, click "PDFs"
  4. Drag the "Split PDF" line into the right pane
  5. Change the output location if desired
  6. Click Run in the upper right

You should see files in the specified output location named "[OriginalFile]-page1.pdf," "[OriginalFile]-page2.pdf," and so on.
