Select pages. Choose page ranges from the original document which you wish to include in each split file. You can select the number of pages, as well as the order in which they appear. You also have the option to automatically split every page of your document into separate individual pages. Print this document using the PDF printer on your computer. Save it as BlankPage.pdf. Open the 2-page PDF using PDF SAM and split this by individual pages into pg1.pdf and pg2.pdf. Open pg1.pdf in PDF SAM and use the merge function to add BlankPage.pdf as the second page. Repeat step 4 using pg2.pdf. A: To split each scanned page into two separate pages, you can follow the instructions below. This method will duplicate the document and hide respectively the left side and then the right side of each page in order to only show one page; then interleave the 2 resulting PDF documents. You can use a Python library called PyPDF. This function will split double pages no matter what the page orientation is: mutool works brillantly for this. The example below will chop each page of input.pdf into 3 horizontal and 8 vertical parts (thus creating 24 pages of output for each 1 of input). Jul 11, 2019. To create a single-page PDF for each extracted page, select Extract Pages As Separate Files. To leave the original pages in the document and create a single PDF that includes all of the extracted pages, leave both check boxes deselected. The extracted pages are placed in a new document. Split PDFs into multiple documents.
I have a large number of PDF files which have two slides to a page (for printing).
The format is A4 pages each with two slides setup like so:
How can I generate a new PDF file with one slide per page?
Happy to use GUI, CLI, scripts or even interface with a language's PDF library; but I do need the text on the slides to still be selectable.

Briss is 'a simple cross-platform (Linux, Windows, Mac OSX) application for cropping PDF files. A simple user interface lets you define exactly the crop-region by fitting a rectangle on the visually overlaid pages.' It's open source (GPL).
Works well for me. The GUI is minimal, but functional. It can also be used from the command line.

, just install mupdf

Thanks to Matt Gumbley for his Python Script. I have modified that Python script such that it now also works with PDFs that contain portrait and landscape pages and cropped pages:

Try BRISS.
It lets you split each page into as many subpages as you want by defining regions with a GUI. It groups all similar pages into groups for you, so you can define regions for that group once.
It's cross-platform, free, and open-source.

If using a Java or .Net library is ok for you, you can use iText / iTextSharp.
An example for tiling an existing document can be found in the book iText in Action, 2nd edition, in the freely available chapter 6: TilingHero.java / TilingHero.cs.

Thanks to moraes for that answer. In my case, the resulting PDF looked fine in Adobe Reader and Mac preview, but did not appear to have been split into separate pages at all when viewing on iOS. I used Python 2.7.8 and PyPDF 2, and modified the script as follows, which worked fine. (and reordered the pages left/right, rather than right/left).

With
mupdf-1.8-windows-x64
, in win10 CMD, you need to have 'poster ' (followed by space and without quotes) before the horizontal parameter (-x ).For example for a double-paged scan to PDF:mutool poster -x 2 -y 1 C:UsersalfieDocumentsSNMThe_Ultimate_Medicine.pdf C:UsersalfieDocumentsebooksThe_Ultimate_Medicine.pdf
What a wonderful tool! Merci infiniment !.(and the output file ~9MB is only 52KB bigger than the original!)

I have a scanned course and it has two pages, consecutive are showing as one page, how can I automatically split all the pages in one pass. Usually this is done by cropping odd and even pages and then merge them back together but this could take very much?
How can I split pages on scanned PDF in a single pass?

After looking on some internet answers (it is a question often asked ) I discovered that this can be done easily using the
Poster
option from the Print
menu.- Choose
Print
fromFile
Menu orCtrl+P
- Select
Printer
as Adobe PDF - Select
Poster
tab. - Change
Overlap
to0
inch - Adjust the
Tile scale
to your needs, 100%(99%) if the result printed PDF page size is same as the current PDF page size, 75% if the printed pdf page size is half the current pdf. Tinker with 'Tile scale' percents if necessary to obtain your desired result. To check the the result printed PDF page size go right of 'Adobe PDF' combo-box selectProperties
and changeAdobe PDF Page Size
combo-box if necessary. - You can hit
Print
button when the page looks split like you desired, check the dotted line in the guiding preview:
Here is a print screen for the described settings:

There's an excellent, free and open source tool called Briss. It is very simple, user friendly and effective. It works on multiple operating systems through Java.
Load your PDF into the app. The app will group similar pages together and lay them on top of each other. Draw rectangles on top of your pages so that they cover what you want included. It will look like this:
Even if your PDF has multiple categories of layout within a single document, Briss will handle it. For example, let's say some parts are in portrait and others in landscape. Briss will group them into different categories and let you draw different rectangles on them, and then process it all in a single pass, into a single document. Briss is very good at deciding which pages should be grouped together. It typically takes me less then a minute of manual work to get Briss started. Thus, a document of hundreds or even thousands of pages can be done in a couple of minutes thanks to this brilliant program.
When it looks good, select Action, then Crop PDF.
Truly a very neat tool.
Note: I realize this answer reads like I'm a Briss developer or something, but I'm really not. I just love the tool.

There are two problem with automating splitting scanned books in a single pass:
- Automation is not always accuracy
- Making a scanned book comfortably read is more than just splitting pages
For everything related with scanned books, I highly recommend using ScanTailor. It has features such as:
- Turn skewed pages vertically,
- Select content to reduce the page size,
- Increase/decrease margin (for notetaking, maybe),
- Whiten the result for better reading experience.
You must export the PDF into images to use this, and recombine the output images back. The processed images may be very small in file size (up to only 6% of the origin), but excellent in quality.
From its GitHub:
Scan Tailor is Free Software (which is more than just freeware). It’s written in C++ with Qt and released under the General Public License version 3. We develop both Windows and GNU/Linux versions.

To complete the task satisfactorily, I recommend you to use PDF-Xchange Viewer for extracting images and adding OCR, i2pdf for merging the outputs. In my experience, you can set the JPG quality to the lowest and it doesn't seem much different, but you have a trade-off between the final output's size and image quality. All programs are free. The whole process takes around 1 hour in background, with occasional checks.
I also have a complete guide to process scanned books, you may want to check it out: The ultimate guide to process scanned books.
