Need help exporting multiple individual PDF files out of Indesign CC

A sample script to achieve what you desire

var doc = app.activeDocument;

var pageCount = doc.pages.length;

var exportPath = "c:\\abc\\";   //Replace with the output folder path

var pdfPreset = app.pdfExportPresets.itemByName ("[Smallest File Size]") //Use the name pf pdf preset you want

var pr = app.pdfExportPreferences.pageRange

for(var i = 1; i <= pageCount; i ++)

{

    app.pdfExportPreferences.pageRange = i.toString();

    doc.exportFile(ExportFormat.PDF_TYPE, exportPath + i + ".pdf", false, pdfPreset)

}

app.pdfExportPreferences.pageRange = pr; //Restore the preferences

You could script InDesign to export each page as individual PDF with specific export presets and labeled with correct page number.

But you could also use Acrobat Pro for this task (sorry for the certainly wrong translation of the Acrobat UI – I use a german version ...):

1. Export the whole publication as 1 PDF file (pp. 1-190).
2. Open it in Acrobat Pro and choose »Tools › Extract Pages«.
3. Type 1 to 190 and check the box »extract pages as single pages«, choose the location where to extract to and acrobat automatically numbers your new PDFs sequentially from 1 to x. (Caution: it doesn’t take the correct page number, but numbers sequentially, so it is important to have a PDF from pp. 1-190 in the correct order.)

So with this (as mentioned – sorry for German ):

You’ll get this:
