Repository for PDF split

PDF SPLITOR

Python implementation of spliting pdfs

Requirements:

• python >= 3.8
• fitz

Install

Clone repo and install requirements.txt in a Python>=3.8.0 environment, including fitz>=0.0.1.

git clone https://github.com/sjtu-jhw/split_pdfs.git  # clone
cd split_pdfs
pip install -r requirements.txt  # install

Usage

Just need to specify the input PDF path and the path where you are prepared to save the split results.

For instance, if the PDF is located in the root directory with the name Template.pdf, and you want to save the split results in a folder named splits also in root, you can simply run a one-liner in the terminal to obtain your split results.

python split.py --pdf_path "./Template.pdf" --output_dir "./splits/"

Results

In the splits folder, you will find a series of PDFs, each representing one page of the original PDF. The naming format is {page_number}-{RL[min]}-{Calc.MW}. If no results are parsed, the corresponding value is NaN.
