    I was able to get this to work for my purposes by modifying a source file and updating the jar. It would be nice to update the jar with a new parameter similar to uniqueSplitFilename that provides filename customization using basename, bookmark, date, padded numbers w/ an option to start from 1. If I knew more java, I'd be happy to do it. Very fast execution!

    I like the possibility to integrate this wonderful tool into a command script that separates my PDF document every time I updated it. It worked for me, because I create the PDF document using OpenOffice Writer. When using PDFs made with pdflatex I experienced problems, too. But the tool is very helpful and I thank you for providing it.

    Did not really work for me. Could be the pdfs I was using. I did remove colons. Maybe there is some other characters that were giving it problems.

    Good program. I already had my pdf set up to the bookmarks I wanted. The only change I had to make is I had a colon character (:) in my bookmark and it didn't like it. Once I removed that it worked perfectly. used java -jar splitPDF.jar to get the list of command line parameters then java -jar splitPDF.jar -iFile <pdffile> to split the pdf. It put the pdfs in a subdirectory with the same name as the original file

    Thank you! I downloaded this and within 15 minutes had completed what would have been a painfully dull task that would have taken me about 2 hours.
