This basic tutorial elaborates the details on how to split PDF by pages in Java. You can choose to split each page of the input document or some specific pages based on the page numbers in the source file. This article includes the steps and code sample which summarizes how using Java split PDF pages functionality can be achieved.

Steps to Split PDF by Pages in Java

1. Configure the project by adding the reference to Aspose.PDF for Java from the Maven repository to split PDF pages
2. Load the source PDF document using the Document class instance for creating multiple PDF files
3. Initialize a blank PDF document and add each page of input files one by one using the Page class
4. Split the PDF file by creating a separate PDF file corresponding to each page of the input file
