Making my A4 document from A4 to A6 with content fitted to A6

[Guest]

Hi everyone!

I have a problem, though it is fixable in a more manual way; is there a way for me to take a A4 size page containing 4 images of A6 size, and split it into 4 pages of A6 size, so each image take ONE page? I'm dealing with a 200 pages document, which needs this vary basic structure, but the tast would take me hours else.

Just to be clear:

Each page contains 4 images, which needs to be on its own page.

I need to split one of the original A4 pages into 4, so each new page contains 1 of the said content.

The content is not resiable due to quality loss.

Thanks in advance!

What software do you have at your disposal?

Will your final document contain 800 A6 pages?

With Acrobat Pro DC you could crop your pages to size. To crop and get all pages you would need to quadruplicate pages and crop so that each bunch of 200 pages contains a quarter of the original page. This is a 5 to 10 minutes work. Disadvantage would be that you would have pages grouped (200 upper left, 200 upper right, ...).

Second possibility is to create an Indesign document and load all 200 pages in. You could then export to PDF again and if intelligently made, you would have a document with 800 pages in a correct order.

The thing is, each of the 4 parts of the original A4 page is unique. So every quarter page needs to be on it's own new page.

That's the case! If you follow my instructions you virtually cut each A4 page in 4 A6 pages...
