The split functionality lets you split one or more PDF files based on page groups, page ranges, bookmarks and file size. The merge functionality lets you quickly sort and then combine a collection of PDF documents and page sets.

PDF PageMaster also allows you to apply or modify PDF security and edit document metadata (e.g. document title, author information, keywords, etc.) on resulting documents.

Key Functions:

  • Generate a new PDF file or compilation by merging one or more PDF documents.
  • Reverse or rearrange pages in a document.
  • Assemble new files by appending pages to existing documents.
  • Split PDF documents by page numbers or by even, odd or custom page ranges etc.
  • Split PDF documents by bookmarks.
  • Split PDF documents based on the resulting file size.
  • Automatically add document information data such as Author, Subject, Title or Keywords to all generated documents.
  • Automatically apply various encryption schemes to all generated documents.
  • Preserve all kinds of annotations.

Additional Features:

  • Encryption. PDF PageMaster supports standard PDF security (40 and 128 bit).
  • Efficiency. PDF PageMaster is based on PDFNet and is extremely fast.
  • Support for large documents. PDF PageMaster implements full BTree mechanism required for efficient manipulation of large documents containing thousands of pages.
  • PDF PageMaster can detect shared resources between pages (e.g. fonts, images, color-spaces) and makes sure that only necessary objects are imported. Therefore, all generated documents contain only minimum necessary information decreasing them in size.
  • Because of built-in support for multi-threading, PageMaster is a good match for concurrent and server based applications.
  • All settings are automatically saved for future sessions.

Common use case scenarios:

  • Server-based, on-demand delivery of dynamically assembled PDF documents.
  • Build new PDF catalogues by extracting page ranges from existing collections of PDF files. This may be particularly useful in assembling product catalogues and report documents.
  • Many PDF workflows in pre-press industry work with color separated documents. PageMaster allows for automated splitting and assembly of separated PDF documents.
