Splits PDF documents into multiple parts.

Select the method by which you want Lasernet Core to determine when to split documents:

  • Every: The PDF will be split at user-defined intervals. Adjust the number of pages between splits.

  • For pages separated by barcode: The PDF will be split wherever there is a page containing a specified barcode.

Options

The following options are relevant to the For pages separated by barcode option:

  • Type: Select, from the drop-down menu, the barcode type for which you want to search.

    Note: We recommend selecting a particular barcode type instead of All types because PDF Splitter will process the document faster.

  • Value: Type the barcode value for which you want to search.

    Note: This is an optional field. If you do not specify a value, the engine will search for any value and might take longer to process the document.

  • Render pages: If checked, barcodes embedded as fonts (vector graphics) will be recognised and processed.

    Note: Only select this option if your document contains font barcodes instead of image barcodes. CPU and memory load will increase, resulting in longer processing time.

  • Delete separation pages: If checked, pages used to split the PDF will be automatically deleted from the output file.

    The example shows one input PDF (batch) being split into three output PDF documents.
