A practical guide

Two files, one for each side.

  1. Choose one PDF; positions count from its first page.
  2. Split it: positions 1, 3, 5 go to odd-pages.pdf and 2, 4, 6 to even-pages.pdf.
  3. Unpack the ZIP and check the first and last page of each file.

Try this example

Split the six-page sample and open the ZIP: odd-pages.pdf has 3 pages starting with page 1 and even-pages.pdf has 3 pages starting with page 2.

Before

  • 1
  • 2
  • 3
  • 4
  • 5
  • 6

After

  • odd-pages.pdf: 1, 3, 5
  • even-pages.pdf: 2, 4, 6
Input and expected output for this task. Illustrative example.

Before you start: Positions count from the first page, not printed page labels. A one-page PDF gives only odd-pages.pdf. Alternate Pages from Two PDFs combines the two files again.

Merge the sides back together
What you get

Separate a PDF into odd-pages.pdf and even-pages.pdf in a ZIP, for example to print or rescan each side. A one-page PDF gives only odd-pages.pdf.
