Duplicating Pages in Acrobat

With the page icons visible in Acrobat Professional you can duplicate
pages by simply holding down the option key (Mac) or Alt key (PC) and
drag a copy of that page anywhere in the document.

JavaScript to bust up a multi-page PDF into single pages

Here's a real handy JavaScript that lots of people could use. One of the neat things about the batch processing function in Acrobat with this script is that you can also have it run the Optimizer. That affords you the ability to do all sorts of cool stuff. Never mind the fact that there are a plethora of other functions you can add as part of a sequence.

Begin JavaScript:

/* extraire */
// regular expression acquire the base name of file
var re = /.*\/|\.pdf$/ig;
var filename = this.path.replace(re,"");
try
{
for ( var i = 0; i < this.numPages; i++ )
this.extractPages
({
nStart: i,
cPath: filename+"_" + (i +1)+".pdf" // (*)
});
}
catch (e)
{
console.println("Batch Aborted: " + e )
}

End JavaScript
