Extract Pages - How to Save each Page to Separate File?

Post by NoteApplicabble »

Hello,

PDF-XChange under the Extract Pages options adds the settings to "save each page to separate file"

How do I batch this same operation in PDF-Tools?

Also, why when I try to select PDF files for a batch process can I not see any .pdf files in my computer folders.
The only file types PDF-Tools will let me select under the file type in the browser window list .pdtfl as the only file type it will allow me to select? (This makes no sense to me.)

In PDF-Tools you should use 'Split/Merge PDFs' tool to perform such operation. Choose 'Every N pages in Separate document' option in 'Method' group, also choose pages count you want. For example see screenshot below.

You have chosen wrong 'Choose from' option in 'Choose input files' action. You should choose 'Choose files' instead of 'Select file list' as shown on screenshot:

Note, that if you want to extract only specific pages from document, you should use 'Show extended dialog for files selecting' option (it is selected on screenshot above). Add files and then you can edit pages range by clicking on 'All pages' link in 'Pages range' column:

Also I have attached zipped tool with described options selected. You can import it in your instance of PDF-Tools by choosing Options -> Import Tools menu or simply dropping pdtex file on main window of PDF-Tools appliation.
