The PDF library supports splitting PDF file into single-page or multiple-page PDF documents.

Splitting a PDF file into individual

The PDF library allows splitting the pages of an existing PDF document into multiple individual PDF documents using split method of the PdfDocument class.

TypeScript

import { PdfDocument, PdfDocumentSplitEventArgs} from '@syncfusion/ej2-pdf';
import { Save } from '@syncfusion/ej2-file-utils';

// Load an existing PDF document
let document: PdfDocument = new PdfDocument(data);
document.splitEvent = documentSplitEvent;
// Split PDF document into individual pages
document.split();
// Event to invoke while splitting PDF document data
function documentSplitEvent(sender: PdfDocument, args: PdfDocumentSplitEventArgs): void {
  Save.save('output_' + args.index + '.pdf', new Blob([args.pdfData], { type: 'application/pdf' }));
}
// Destroy the document
document.destroy();

JavaScript

// Load an existing PDF document
var document = new ej.pdf.PdfDocument(data);
document.splitEvent = documentSplitEvent;
// Split PDF document into individual pages
document.split();
// Event to invoke while splitting PDF document data
function documentSplitEvent(sender, args): void {
  Save.save('output_' + args.index + '.pdf', new Blob([args.pdfData], { type: 'application/pdf' }));
}
// Destroy the document
document.destroy();

Split a range of pages into a separate PDF document

The PDF library allows splitting a certain range of pages into a separate PDF document using the splitByPageRanges method of the PdfDocument class.

TypeScript

import { PdfDocument, PdfDocumentSplitEventArgs} from '@syncfusion/ej2-pdf';
import { Save } from '@syncfusion/ej2-file-utils';

// Load an existing PDF document
let document: PdfDocument = new PdfDocument(data);
document.splitEvent = documentSplitEvent;
// Split PDF document by page ranges specified
document.splitByPageRanges([[0, 4], [5, 9]]);
// Event to invoke while splitting PDF document data
function documentSplitEvent(sender: PdfDocument, args: PdfDocumentSplitEventArgs): void {
  Save.save('output_' + args.index + '.pdf', new Blob([args.pdfData], { type: 'application/pdf' }));
}
// Destroy the document
document.destroy();

JavaScript

// Load an existing PDF document
var document = new ej.pdf.PdfDocument(data);
document.splitEvent = documentSplitEvent;
// Split PDF document by page ranges specified
document.splitByPageRanges([[0, 4], [5, 9]]);
// Event to invoke while splitting PDF document data
function documentSplitEvent(sender, args): void {
  Save.save('output_' + args.index + '.pdf', new Blob([args.pdfData], { type: 'application/pdf' }));
}
// Destroy the document
document.destroy();

Split by a fixed number of pages into a PDF document

The PDF library allows splitting by fixed number of pages of an existing PDF document using the splitByFixedNumber method of the PdfDocument class.

TypeScript

import { PdfDocument, PdfDocumentSplitEventArgs} from '@syncfusion/ej2-pdf';
import { Save } from '@syncfusion/ej2-file-utils';

// Load an existing PDF document
let document: PdfDocument = new PdfDocument(data);
document.splitEvent = documentSplitEvent;
// Split PDF document by fixed number of pages
document.splitByFixedNumber(1);
// Event to invoke while splitting PDF document data
function documentSplitEvent(sender: PdfDocument, args: PdfDocumentSplitEventArgs): void {
  Save.save('output_' + args.index + '.pdf', new Blob([args.pdfData], { type: 'application/pdf' }));
}
// Destroy the document
document.destroy();

JavaScript

// Load an existing PDF document
var document = new ej.pdf.PdfDocument(data);
document.splitEvent = documentSplitEvent;
// Split PDF document by fixed number of pages
document.splitByFixedNumber(1);
// Event to invoke while splitting PDF document data
function documentSplitEvent(sender, args): void {
  Save.save('output_' + args.index + '.pdf', new Blob([args.pdfData], { type: 'application/pdf' }));
}
// Destroy the document
document.destroy();
