Let’s imagine a situation when you need to extract one or more pages from an entire document and send them to someone. And at the same time, it is highly desirable that the rest of the document content will not become known to third parties. The situation is quite typical. How can this problem be solved?
Actually, there are several ways. The first one is for those who have the time and inspiration: print the desired pages, scan / photograph them and send them to the person who should read their contents. Another way is for those who are used to time management and understand that it is better not to complicate simple actions.
For those who are close to the second way, the Splitter application was developed. In fact, almost every company that develops applications for working with PDFs has a Splitter. The only difference between them is the available functionality. In some applications, you can simply split a document into several separate files (according to the number of pages in your document). Other applications allow you to configure the pages that you want to extract.
And in this article I would like to tell you about multifunctional Splitter by Aspose.PDF.
Although Aspose.PDF seems to be only about PDF, this application supports formats like PDF, Doc, DocX, PPT, PPTX, XLS, XLSX, JPG, PNG, BMP, GIF and TIFF.
Working on splitting document, you have to choose the file format you’re going to work with. Let’s choose, for example, Split PDF.
At this stage you can upload the file, drag it or simply enter the URL. You can also choose how exactly you plan to split your document. Here you can use the following functions:
1. Every page
2. Odd and even pages
3. Every N pages
4. By page number
5. Extract page range into multiple files
6. Extract page range into single file
All possible options for extracting pages are taken into account here.
Next, just press Split button.
For example, let’s upload a file that has 4 pages and try to select the Odd and Even Pages function.
In a few seconds we will be able to download the resulting document.
Just press the Download button.
As far as document was splitted and we should download several files at once, you’ll get the archived documents.
You remember that our document contained 4 pages and we chose the Odd and Even Pages feature. It is absolutely natural that as a result we received two documents.
The application interface is very intuitive, so it will not be difficult to understand the operation of other functions on your own.
You can also look through video-instruction:
It is important that this application works online, so it doesn’t matter which operating system and which browser you prefer. It works equally well with all. By default, your document is stored in the Aspose.PDF system for 24 hours. This is quite convenient, as it allows you to return to it and change the splitting function. At the same time, you can use the Delete immediately function. And your file will be immediately deleted from the company’s servers.
