How to Split Large 23x8 InDesign Pages into 8 Single Page PDFs

I have inherited a brochure file that is roughly 2 pages at 23 x 8. Previous versions of the brochure have been saved a 8 single page pdfs, I can figure out to split the massive pages myself with indesign or via exporting. Is there a way to make this change when exporting? or do you think the pdf was made by copying and pasting each "page" onto a single page

Hi @Lauren35786502gb3v

 

Thank you for reaching out, and I’m sorry to hear you’re facing challenges with your brochure file.

 

To better assist you, could you please clarify how the brochure was originally set up? Specifically, is it designed as one continuous spread across two pages, or are the "pages" within the larger design just sections that need to be split?

If the brochure is a continuous design, one approach is to use the "File > Export > Adobe PDF (Print)" option, where you can specify the page size and manually crop each section during export. However, if the PDF was created by copying and pasting each section onto single pages, you might need to adjust the layout manually.
