it seems pdfmod is the utility and I can not find pdf separate. Is

pdfmod should be in your menu, and I would try using it first.
pdfseparate is a command line utility.

Just go into an empty directory and them do:
pdfseperate /path/to/your.pdf

and it will split your PDF into a separate PDF file per page.

You can use pdfmod to put a separated PDF back together.

Next time you might want to try using pdfseperate from the
poppler-utilities package. I believe that you will find
that it
pulls your PDF apart into seperate pages otherwise
completely intact.

You might also want to take a look at pdfmod from the pdfmod
package. It will allow you to rotate, extract, remove and
reorder
pages via drag and drop.

I have a PDF file that I needed to separate the pages
of. So i
loaded it
into gscan2pdf and deleted the pages I didn't need.
Unfortunately one of
the pages was a legal sized paper and apparently gscan2pdf
doesn't like
legal paper so it scrunched it down to standard paper
size. That
would
be fine except it scrunched all the other pages by the same
aspect thus
leading to scewed pages. That's fine, I'll open the
pages with
GIMP and
stretch the pages back to normal size..... how to do
that? The
solution
is to scale the image then to export the image as a pdf.
Unfortunately,
When you save the image it only saves one page. The
solution? Open
gscan2pdf, open each individual image, and then save it
again making
sure that in the save dialog "All" is selected in
"PageRange".
Aren't
you proud of me? I figured it out. I'm sending this in case
anyone else
has the same problem. My "Question" turned into a "How-To".
