Here is my script. Whether it is faster, I do not know. Because I can't test Acrobat's own split function against my script. I use it on purchased digital stamps that I use for postal mailings. These PDFs can contain up to 10,000 pages. generateSinglePages = app.trustedFunction(function () {
d0 = new Date();
debut = util.printd("dd/mm/yyyy, HH:MM", d0);
// Regular expression used to acquire the base name of file
var re = /.pdf$/i;
var filename = this.documentFileName.replace(re, ""); // filename is the base name of the file Acrobat is working on
var npath = this.path.slice(0, this.path.length - (filename.length + 4));
try {
var t = app.thermometer;
t.duration = this.numPages;
t.begin();
for (var i = 0; i < this.numPages; i++) {
console.clear();
console.println("Process Starting: " + debut);
console.println("Page ") + (i + 1);
var nummer = util.printf("%05d", (i * 1 + 1) + ""); // The numbering is zeroed out to five digits.
this.extractPages
({
nStart: i,
cPath: npath + filename + "_" + nummer + ".pdf"
});
t.value = i;
t.text = 'Save page ' + i + ' as file ' + filename + '_' + nummer + '.pdf';
if (t.cancelled)
break;
}
t.end();
} catch (e) {
app.alert("An error has occurred: " + e.message);
}
df = new Date();
fin = util.printd("dd/mm/yyyy, HH:MM", df);
temps = (df.valueOf() - d0.valueOf()) / 1000 / 60;
var lesMinutes = parseInt(temps);
var lesSecondes = (temps - lesMinutes) * 60;
var lesSecondes = parseInt(lesSecondes * 10) / 10;
var leTemps = "";
if (lesMinutes > 0) {
if (lesMinutes == 1) {
var leTemps = "1 minute";
