Python version
Make sure you have poetry installed.
Then run poetry install to install it. If you do not wish to install poetry, simply run pip install pypdf.
python splitter.py [path to pdf]
Without specifying the split points, the program
will attempt to automatically detect where to split. This is useful
if you use a section per question in your PDF like
\section{Question 1}
\subsection{Part a}
\subsection{Part b}
\newpage
\section{Question 2}
\newpageSubsections are handled properly. I recommend
putting a \newpage after each section, since
this ensures each file corresponds exactly
to one question.
Of course, you can also specify the split points manually with the
--indices flag. For example, if you want to split the pdf
at pages 1, 3, 5, 7, 9, 11, 13, 15, 17, 19, and 21, you would run
python splitter.py [path to pdf] --indices 1,3,5,7,9,11,13,15,17,19,21
See the actual code for behaviour.
If the first question isn't question 1, but rather question n,
specify it with the flag --start-question-number [n]. This will
reindex the output filenames.
