One Giant PDF INTO INDIVIDUAL PDF'S (Reader version 11.0.23)

Please Help.....

I'm working on a MacBook Air running OS 10.13.3 High Sierra and Adobe Reader version 11.0.23.

I work for a manufacturer who has given me a task that is a bit over my head. We just had a Printer Company scan 377 pages of my company's drawings on to a USB Drive. I saved them as a PDF Document on my desktop. Adobe shows this as one giant PDF. I need to break it down into individual pages with searchable Page Numbers from an Index or by Drawing Name.

I know that this question has been asked before in different ways but I needed to ask for me. I think that not only do I need the help of the community but I will also need to purchase another type of Adobe software to accomplish my goal. Time IS important.

PLEASE HELP THIS NEOPHYTE WHO'S IN OVER HIS HEAD.

Not possible with Reader. You need to get Acrobat to be able to do it.

So I have Acrobat Pro DC now. I've created a document called All Drawings and am now trying to OCR or Index it so I can search. The index is not working giving me an UNABLE message when I click on the index on my desktop.

Suggestions?
