I try to split a multipage PDF with Ghostscript, and I found the same solution on more sites and even on, namely: gs -sDEVICE=pdfwrite -dSAFER -o outname.%d.pdf input.pdf But it seems not working for me, because it produces one file, with all pages, and with the name outname.1.pdf. When I add the start and end pages, then it is working fine, but I want it to work without knowing those parameters. In the gs-devel archive, I found a solution for this: -- but I feel like doing it without pdf_info. When I use a different device, for example pswrite, but same parameters, it works correctly, producing as many ps files, as my input.pdf contains.

I tried using the%d syntax in the output file but result was only 1 file. Adobe Indesign Cs5 Crack. This works if the -sDEVICE is something other than pdfwrite. /usr/local/bin/gs -SDEVICE. How to use Ghostscript. This document describes how to use the command line Ghostscript client. Snagit 7 Serial Key. The details of how these work are described below.

Is this normal when using pdfwrite? Am I doing something wrong? What you see is 'normal' behaviour: the current version of Ghostscript's pdfwrite output device does not support this feature. This is also (admittedly, somehow vaguely) documented in: 'Note, however that the one page per file feature may not be supported by all devices.' I seem to remember that one of the Ghostscript developers mentioned on IRC that they may add this feature to pdfwrite in some future release, but it seems to necessitate some major code rewrite, which is why they haven't done it yet.

Update: As Gordon's comment already hinted at, as of (released on July 31st, 2012), Ghostscript now supports the commandline as quoted in the question also for pdfwrite. (Gordon must have discovered the unofficial support for this already in 9.05, or he compiled his own executable from the pre-release sources which were not yet tagged as 9.06). I found this script wriiten by Mr Weimer super useful: #!/bin/sh # # pdfsplit [input.pdf] [first_page] [last_page] [output.pdf] # # Example: pdfsplit big_file.pdf 10 20 pages_ten_to_twenty.pdf # # written by: Westley Weimer, Wed Mar 19 17:58:09 EDT 2008 # # The trick: ghostscript (gs) will do PDF splitting for you, it's just not # obvious and the required defines are not listed in the manual page. If [ $# -lt 4 ] then echo 'Usage: pdfsplit input.pdf first_page last_page output.pdf' exit 1 fi yes gs -dBATCH -sOutputFile='$4' -dFirstPage=$2 -dLastPage=$3 -sDEVICE=pdfwrite '$1' >& /dev/null Origin from: save it as pdfsplit.sh, see the magic happens.
