Split PDF
Infoveave Data Automation — Document Parsing
One batch PDF in. Individual page files out. Each one named and ready.
Payroll systems, banking platforms, and document management tools frequently produce batch PDFs — a single file containing one payslip per page, one invoice per page, or one policy per customer. Distributing these documents individually requires splitting the PDF — something that is tedious at scale. Split PDF automates the separation, producing one file per page ready for individual delivery by email, upload to a customer portal, or archiving in a document management system.
What Split PDF does
Split a multi-page PDF into individual single-page PDF files inside your Infoveave workflow. Separate batch documents — payslips, invoices, or policies — into per-record files for individual delivery, archiving, or further downstream processing.
When to use Split PDF
- Your payroll system generates a single PDF with all employee payslips and you need individual files for delivery
- A batch PDF contains one invoice, statement, or policy per page and each must be stored or sent separately
- You receive a multi-page PDF from a partner system and need to process each page independently in a downstream step
- You need to route individual pages to different downstream systems based on content after splitting
When to avoid it
- You need to extract data fields from the PDF content — use Extract Text from PDF or Extract OCR from PDF instead
- Your PDF does not need to be split — use other extraction activities directly on the full document
- You want to merge multiple PDFs into one — Split PDF is a separation activity, not a merge
Where it fits in your Infoveave automation

How teams use Split PDF
Real scenarios where this transformation saves hours of manual work.
Payslip Individual Delivery
The monthly payroll run produces a single batch PDF with one payslip per employee. Split PDF separates the batch into individual files named systematically (payslip_1.pdf, payslip_2.pdf...). A downstream merge step combines employee email addresses with the matching page file and sends each employee their own payslip automatically.
Bank Statement Individual Filing
Account statements for all branches are delivered as a consolidated PDF. Split PDF separates each branch statement into its own file, which is then routed to the correct branch-level archive folder in the document management system.
Policy Certificate Distribution
Renewal policy certificates are generated as a batch PDF. Split PDF separates each policy certificate page, which is then matched to customer data and delivered to the customer portal or emailed directly to the policyholder.

Configuration
Key fields to configure in the Infoveave workflow builder. Full reference available in the documentation.
Start Page
The page number from which to begin splitting. Page 1 starts from the beginning of the document. Useful for skipping cover pages or summary sections at the front of a batch file.
End Page
The last page to include in the split operation. Leave blank or use -1 to process all pages to the end of the document. Specify a page number to limit the range processed.
