How do I scan multiple pages into separate PDF's?

It's hard to believe that this is such a hard question to find an answer on. I regularly have to scan 5-10 pages at once but I need to name and save them each as an individual PDF file. When I scan all documents at once, I get a 10 page pdf file. I know I can then extract the pages to a file - but then I need to open them one by one to see what they are and name them.

When using Windows Fax/Scan, I can set it up so each page is its own separate file, but it doesn't handle PDF's....

The only other option that I have, is that the scanner I use supports blank page recognition. So if I separate each document with a blank piece of paper, it will automatically separate each PDF. This is just a little cumbersome.

Is there another way that I'm missing?

I just want to scan 10 pages and have it show 10 files that I can name and save individually... Possible?

Possible, if you buy the right thing (Acrobat Pro or Acrobat Standard). Not possible for free.  What do you have? What version, if it isn't Reader?

Also, scanning to PDF is probably done by the software that comes with the scanner - maybe it can do more but that isn't Adobe's stuff.

So with Acrobat Pro DC, what's the solution?
