Question

How do I split & separate PDF pages based on page size?

Guys Hi!
Say I have a 50-page pdf file with several legal-size pages  & rest of the pages in letter size.

Is there a free script to extract, separate or split files based on various page sizes. Even perhaps where size based pages are saved separately? thanks
PS: I use Acrobat XI

The answer is No, there is not currently a free script for this, but it is possible, and you could write it. 

Here's an article on understanding page coordinates (and page sizes), which you'll need to do this.

Hi, thanks! I, unfortunately, have zero skills in writing scripts. There is a program out there  but it cots almost 200.00 Its called PDFPageSizeSplitBatch & that's way too much in terms of cost.
