About Divide Pages
Cuts each page into sections — halves, quarters, or an arbitrary grid — turning every source page into several output pages. The opposite operation to N-Up.
Division is computed locally from the page geometry; the document is not uploaded to be re-imposed.
How to use Divide Pages
- Load the PDF.
- Choose the division — two horizontally for a book spread, or an arbitrary grid for a contact sheet.
- Check the preview to confirm the cut lines fall in the gutter and not through content.
- Divide and download.
On a production
A scanned A3 spread comes in as one wide page when it should be two A4 pages. A contact sheet needs its frames separated. Both are the same operation: one physical page holding several logical ones.
Frequently asked questions
- What order do the divided pages come out in?
- Reading order — left to right, then top to bottom — so a two-up spread produces the left page followed by the right page, which is what a scanned book needs.
- The cut goes through my content — can I adjust it?
- Yes, the division point is adjustable rather than fixed at the exact centre. Scanned spreads are rarely centred perfectly, so expect to nudge it.
- Is content outside the cut discarded?
- Each output page shows its section of the source. Nothing is lost overall — every part of the original page appears in one of the outputs.
