Change default number of pages when splitting document

*posting again because someone kept wrongfully marking a "correct answer" last time

 

I have contacted support and they have told me it is not currently possible but maybe the community knows of a workaround. When splitting documents the default number of pages to split into is 2. I always need to change this to a 1 and the number does not get saved in between uses. This can become tedious and slow me down when I have to split around  ahundred documents a day. I have already submitted a fix for this as a suggestion so I am hoping that works out.

When I looked into it it seemed like the 2018 version had the same issue and it was fixed 4 years ago but they did maintain that fix for the newest version which I had installed a couple weeks ago. Hopefully this gets resolved as it would make my job much easier. 

 

If anyone knows any kind of creative workaround for this please let me know. Thanks

      I don't believe so, but a custom-made script can be used to achieve the same result. It can also skip this dialog entirely and just split each page as a new file automatically.

        I'm not really an expert on it, could you shed some light on how exactly I would go about that? Thanks for the response

        Sure, but you need to better explain your ultimate goal. Do you just want to split each page as its own file?

        What should these new files be named, and where should they be saved?
