image splitter with different sizes

is there a program that splits an image file in jpg or png in 8.5x11
letter format but at different sizes?

reason is I got this pdf file but the contents inside is one page long
according to the PDF status info. Its one very long page. I'd say about
between 24 - 30 pages crammed as one page. not really suitable for
printing.

extracted this as an image file. and tried some of the image splitters
from the NET. Problem is those image splitters cut the image at the
same size.

I'm looking for one that allows me to adjust the cuts (dotted line) at
different sizes as needed in the 8.5x11 letter format.

otherwise, I'm looking at having to do the tedious crop, cut, paste
method to get this thing in a readable format.

Is it jpg, png or pdf ??

If pdf, just copy it all and paste into Word, then print to pdf... at
least that works for me... I use Foxit PhantomPDF.

Are you sure it won't also display page view?

You didn't mention the content. Is it mostly
or entirely plain text? In that case you might
want to export the content as text. I usuallu
take one of two appproaches: If it's text I
export it using a PDF program. (Even the simple
Sumatra can do that.) If the content was
actually created using images I export those.
(XPDF is one option.) I then convert those
to text using OCR software.

If you want to continue with the approach
you're using you can open the big image in any
image editor and just snip it at a multiple of
the DPI you're printing. Example: If you print
at 300 dpi then you want about 300 x 10 inches
or 3000 pixels vertical size for each image.

Display page view in the original PDF shows it at 1 page. Its just the
way the author wrote it. I've never seen this written this way in any
PDF file I've come across.

the content is a mix of text & graphic images & also has background
image as well. Its also password protected to prevent saving the file
under PDF, PNG, JPG & DOCX.

Its a manual/instructions for a 3d DAZ object.

Didn't think about saving it under DOCX under the password stripped
version. I will try that.

Tried DOCX, it partially worked under Open Office, its missing the
images tho. This ones got another issue, it requires editing as it has
an excessive amount of spacing between letters. ugh.

I see that the PW stripped pdf version has artifacts, its formating its
quite the same as the original pdf.

One of the first things to check, is look in the
PDF document properties, to see what "tool" produced
the output. That will explain how it got that way.

It almost sounds like Adobe Illustrator, set to create
content to be sent to a pamphlet printer (double sided,
folded at odd places).

Unless you had the document source, there may not
be enough metadata in the file you've got, to
precisely chop it "on the fold lines". Which means
no matter what tool you use, cropping and zooming
is still going to be manual.

Instead of converting to jpg / png, use pdf Creator to print view to pdf.
Then combine the pages into one paginated pdf using Irfan or other pdf combiners.
I use online foxy utils merge pdf for non-sensitive pdfs. It gives better
quality results than Irfan.

So that implies the "source" exists as web pages... somewhere.

They could be web pages inside the help folder of the application.

I would try pulling it into LibreOffice Writer.

Some DTP softwares can pull a PDF into their environment.
Whether that makes sense, depends on the format of the
information inside the PDF (objects, or a flat image).
If it really is a flat image 250" long, pulling the
doc into LibreOffice will achieve nothing. You would
want Photoshop for "crop n' save" instead. Even GIMP
can import a PDF, if you set it up correctly.

If the document permissions are a problem, there are multiple
solutions. If the document uses 128 bit encryption
and has adversarial document properties, it costs
around $500 and days of brute forcing, to "clean" it.

The following is for trivial situations, where a bonehead
does not configure their Acrobat Distiller properly
before generating the final document, and you need
to remove the trivially stupid permissions that result.

(from Mupdf package...)

mutool clean input.pdf output.pdf

I suspect Dilbert has already done this, as there
is a complaint in one of the posts about "artifacts".
Which is always a possibility, with a method like that.

I don't know of any tool smart enough to automate
all the necessary processing.

found another website that did a better job of breaking the security
without the artifacts.
