Separating a page into two

Hello everyone,

I have a question about acrobat pro dc. It works fine and everything, but how can I separate a page into two?
I can cut it and i can duplicate it and then cut it twice shouldn't there be an easier way?

I scanned some book pages and I want every page in the book to be one page in the pdf-document and not the way it is know, that for example page 40 and 41 is shown as one in the pdf document.

Should be an easy task but I just can't find the easy solution without messing around with duplicating everything first and cutting it in half again...

Help is much appreciated

It can be done using a script, like this one I've developed: Custom-made Adobe Scripts: Acrobat -- Split Pages in 2 Parts and Combine to a New File

The needed tools are within Acrobat, you just need to learn how to use them.

With Professional it is fairly easy to create an Action to apply to a PDF file.

You may also need additional tools to reorder the odd and even pages into the same order so you can then merge the odd and even page files.

Hi.

You can use this script, and save it as an Acrobat Action if you need to reuse it:
