Hello, wondering if the following is even possible with adobe 

if I were to scan 100  files as PDFs (say each pda file is about 60 pages long) each file would be scanned in numberical order. Once I separate the files, is it possible to automatically sort so that all 100 files page 1 because 1 file and all page 2 become another file and so on? 

thanks!

Yes, you can split pdf in multiples pages, you can use the Adobe Acrobat and them combine PDF files. Also if you only want to merge some pages you can specify the pages or page ranges you want to include. Some programs you can split a PDF file based on the depth level of bookmarks in the bookmarks tree. An example is splitting a book at chapters level, you can tell to program to split at the chapters bookmarks level and it will split at the pages pointed by those bookmarks.

Yes you can split a multi page file to single pages, they will be named incrementally. If you have 100x60 files that you would like to orename invrementally I would sort them by date (since the date will be sequential) and then use batch rename from Adobe Bridge. There are also some non Adobe applications like Calas Toolbox that are speciallised in batching a process
