Still cut the pdf manually? Time to let the Automator to do it!

Recently, I discovered that there is a program on the mac that can help you do all the complicate work that you do not want to do. The name of the program is Automator, if you don't know how to find it, search it at the launchpad or the spotlight. just like this:

I remember that couple year ago when I apply to a summer camp, and I have to fill a pdf file. The file require the signature of my parent and my teacher. So I have to email the file to my teacher, but I don't want to show the part of the file that specifically address to my parents. Thus, I design to cut the file into individuals pages. I remember that it took me almost 2 hours with adobe. But I now find a new way to do it and it take only a second.

First, open the Automator, chose the application.

Then chose pdf on the left and chose split pdf and the drag it to the giant spare space on the right.

And, save the file.

Then.......

Drag the file to the PDF Cutter.......

And......done




In conclusion, Automator is easy to use, easy to create and have many other extensions that waiting for you to discovery
