var outputPath1 = @"C:\Samples\split_page1.pdf";
var outputPath2 = @"C:\Samples\split_page2.pdf";

// Set up split options
var options = new SplitOptions();
options.AddInput(new FileDataSource(inputPath));
options.AddOutput(new FileDataSource(outputPath1));

  • Range Extraction: For advanced use, set up options to extract custom page ranges as separate files.
  • Bulk Operations: Integrate into Divide PDF Automation scripts for archiving, review, or downstream processing. You can also use Aspose Create PDF functionality for generating documents that can later be split.
