    Illustrative workflows

    These scenarios explain how to check your own output; they are not claims of a recorded browser test.

    Separate invoice pages

    Split a multi-page invoice PDF into one file per customer statement.

    Remove a section

    Split pages 1-10 into one file and pages 11-20 into another for faster review.

    Choose file boundaries, not just selected pages

    In range mode, 1-3,5,8-9 means three output PDFs: one with pages 1 through 3, one with page 5, and one with pages 8 and 9. Entering only 1-3 creates one PDF download; multiple outputs are packaged in a ZIP. For one PDF containing all those selected pages, use Extract PDF Pages instead.

    Every page mode separates physical pages, not invoices or chapters. If each customer statement spans two pages, splitting every page would separate its front and back. Enter the statement ranges instead, then open the individual files in the ZIP to check the boundaries. Page numbers refer to positions in the file, including covers.

    Save pages 2 and 3 together
