🪓 PDF Splitter & Page Deleter

A simple Python script that can:

1. Split large PDFs into smaller PDFs (default: 30 pages per file).
2. Delete selected pages from a PDF.

For example:

• Splitter: A 60-page PDF can be split into two 30-page files.
• Deleter: User input 1-10, 15-17 will remove those pages from the PDF.

🚀 Features

PDF Splitter

• Splits any PDF into chunks of custom page length (default: 30).

• Saves the new PDFs in the same directory as the original file.
• Supports long file names and complex paths (e.g., C:\Users\...).

PDF Deleter

• Automatically names output files ([file name]_updated.pdf).
• Saves the new PDFs in the same directory as the original file.
• Supports long file names and complex paths (e.g., C:\Users\...).

🧠 How It Works

The script uses the PyPDF2 library to:

1. Read the input PDF.
2. Count the total number of pages.
3. Split the PDF into smaller files (for the splitter) or remove selected pages (for the deleter).
4. Save the resulting PDFs in the same folder as the original file.

🗂 Example Output

Splitter

If your PDF has 65 pages and you split by 30 pages:

myfile_part1.pdf  (pages 1–30)
myfile_part2.pdf  (pages 31–60)
myfile_part3.pdf  (pages 61–65)

Deleter

If you delete pages 1-10, 15, 18-20 from a PDF called myfile.pdf:

myfile_updated.pdf  (all pages except 1-10, 15, 18-20)

⚡ Notes

• PDF pages are 1-indexed when entering ranges.
• Make sure your input format for deleting pages is comma-separated with optional ranges (start-end).
• The original PDF is not modified; a new PDF is created.
