Splitting multipage document into n separate images

[maho]

Hi guys,

I have a 54 page PLD document "doc.pld" that I need to splint into 54 individual image files "doc1.png", "doc2.png", ..., "doc54.png".

Is there any clever way to do this? Maybe using a keyboard shortcut somehow? But I can't figure out how to increment the file name counter.

In "Pages" panel menu use "Save Page(s)". Or use global menu "Layout -> Page -> "Save Page(s)"


Select image format and click "Save". In the end it will be dialog to select pages you want to export.

*edit* Shijan beat me to it ;-P

I appreciate the help guys. Unfortunately, it didn't work for me.

When I go to Layout -> Page -> "Save Page(s)", it doesn't allow me to change the file type to be anything other than PLD. When I click save, it just saves the entire multi-page PLD file as one large file.

I'm running PL 23.01 on MacOS 13.6. Maybe I need to upgrade to get this feature to work.

It works only last beta versions.

Thanks shijan. I ended up doing it manually.

24.01 can only save pages as PLD.

Really 23.01? Or 24.01?

With 24.01, the "Save Page(s)" file dialog shows the following options:

With "Single Page" checked, I get 7 files named "Filename1.pld" to "Filename7.pld". After that, I can use "File > Batch Converting" to convert the files to a different file format.

I am running PL 23.01.

I'm not quite sure what happened. Yesterday, I was unable to create separate files, so I did it manually (took about 45 mins). Today, I was able to split the pages into 55 files using Layout -> Page -> "Save Page(s)". I think I forgot to click the "Single Page" button last time.
