Overview

Split one PDF into multiple files — by page ranges, every N pages, or one file per page. Break big scans, statements and reports into per-record documents in a single run.

PDF Split input — configure the options in the Apify Console

What it does

By ranges — 1-3,5,8-10 produces one file per range.
Every N pages — chunk a long PDF into equal parts.
One file per page — explode a PDF into single pages.

Use cases

Office — split a merged scan back into individual documents.
Statements/invoices — break a combined PDF into per-customer files.
Prep — extract just the pages you need.
