SplitPDFOperation

An operation that splits PDF document into multiple smaller documents by simply specifying either the number of files, pages per file, or page ranges.

Sample Usage:


 const credentials = PDFServicesSdk.Credentials.servicePrincipalCredentialsBuilder()
           .withClientId("PDF_SERVICES_CLIENT_ID")
           .withClientSecret("PDF_SERVICES_CLIENT_SECRET")
           .build(),
       executionContext = PDFServicesSdk.ExecutionContext.create(credentials),
       SplitPDF = PDFServicesSdk.SplitPDF,
       splitPDFOperation = SplitPDF.Operation.createNew();

 splitPDFOperation.setInput(PDFServicesSdk.FileRef.createFromLocalFile('~/Documents/splitPDFInput.pdf',
 	SplitPDF.SupportedSourceFormat.pdf));
 splitPDFOperation.setPageCount(2);

 splitPDFOperation.execute(executionContext)
     .then(result => {
          let saveFilesPromises = [];
          for(let i = 0; i < result.length; i++){
              saveFilesPromises.push(result[i].saveAsFile(`output/splitPDFOutput_{i}.pdf`));
          }
          return Promise.all(saveFilesPromises);
      })
     .catch(err => console.log(err));
