Splits PDF documents into multiple parts.

The Setup tab of a PDF Splitter engine.

Create New Job

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 the type of barcode that you want to search for.

    Note

    We recommend selecting a particular barcode type instead of Any type because PDF Splitter will process the document faster.

  • Quality

    • High Performance: High-quality barcodes are recognized well in this mode.

    • High Quality: This preset is developed for low-quality barcodes. Able to detect highly damaged barcodes.

    • Max Quality: Able to recognize all possible barcodes (even incorrect barcodes).

    • Normal Quality: Suitable for most barcodes.

  • 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 selected, 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 selected, 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.
