Separating reader spreads PDF in single page PDF

[Made in Taiwan]

Doing it manually might let you end up with an even more messed up file. Once you lose concentration, and boooom, it happened...

I've seen it way too many times, where the file doesn't exactly line up in the fold. More times than I would feel comfortable wasting my time running an automated action and checking only to discover I am going to be spending the next 30 minutes grabbing points in Pitstop to make them line up. If I do it manually, I've saved myself the trouble.

When I say way too many times, I mean just about every time.

I guess I'm the only one with customers that are half ass.

we got the other half here...

I've never seen the Pitstop action do it wrong unless the page isn't centered in the first place. Which isn't Pitstops fault. The Prinergy split page function would fail in that case as well. I know in any of the automation we have in place it never fails because of the process. It only fails because of human failure on the front end. The failure rate of humans is much higher than that of a computer.

I don't disagree at all. That's is pretty much what I said above.

Why are there 2 separate threads for so similar a topic?

[Ear]

I'm thinking the threads were in spreads, but were split by the Mighty Joe?

[Joe]

Because one is about splitting reader spreads that were output as spreads and the other is about the way Acrobat can display either single pages or spreads when the PDF pages have been output as single pages. There is a difference.

Not me man....I'm just the janitor.

Okay, I thought just personally, they were too similar. As far off topic as we are? Those are practically identical.

Recommend FlyingPages PDF Imposition. In addition to imposition, It has a Acrobat Plugin which has lots of useful tools, such as splitting pages, merge files, change page orders, change page size, etc. See screen capture.

$499? You buckin' for early retirement?

No Mac version either. I'd demo it for the imposition if it had a Mac version but I'm not trying it on Windows.
