Split a bulk pdf into smaller pdfs using a command?

I have a pdf of 470 pages and I want split that into smaller pdfs using a command in Linux. I have hundreds of such pdfs and I want to automate the process. Is there a way to do it.

Solution

  • One way is pdfseparate:

    http://manpages.ubuntu.com/manpages/xenial/man1/pdfseparate.1.html

    You can call it from a shell script to automate the splitting.
