Double-page scans to single-page ones?
From the Internet some scans of books display two
pages at once. These are harder to read on tablets. Is it possible to convert these two-page scans to single-page ones with Acrobat? Maybe with the "extract" function? |

Without a sample page it is difficult to say but have you tried in acrobat: View Page Display Single Page View https://i.imgur.com/FQSPcdw.png https://i.imgur.com/FQSPcdw.png -- With over 950 million devices now running Windows 10, customer satisfaction is higher than any previous version of windows. |

This is "normal" for this particular software source. They concentrate on writing software mostly. Artifex mutool https://mupdf.com/downloads/index.html https://mupdf.com/downloads/archive/....0-windows.zip mutool --help mutool poster -x 2 input.pdf output.pdf -p - password -x x decimation factor (default 1) -y y decimation factor (default 1) There are two ways to get a two-up view in Acrobat. One is by using the preferences in Acrobat Reader and selecting "facing" as the viewing option, instead of "single". But, there are evil scanner software packages, that take two scanned images (two passes) and jam the results into one logical page. These need an actual transformation. +-----------------------+ +-----------+ +-----------+ | page1 page2 | == | page1 | | page2 | | image image | | image | | image | +-----------------------+ +-----------+ +-----------+ and that's what the "poster" option is for. You can still select "Facing" in the actual PDF Reader and make it look like two pages are on the screen at the same time. To see one page on the screen select "Single" or "Continuous" in the Reader application. +-----------+ | page1 | | image | +-----------+ Continuous, as you scroll down. +-----------+ (Viewing the mutool poster output.pdf) | page2 | | image | +-----------+ Demo: https://i.postimg.cc/8zfRXwL4/mutool-poster.gif I use mutool mostly for its "clean" option. I don't think "poster" is in the older version I use. Paul |
