If the originals that were concatted were PDFs, then they too were merged at a
page level. As such, when you split, you split at the page level.
Of course, you can search the text determine which page your content lives on
to know WHERE to split – but you're still splitting at the page.

Subject: [iText-questions] - Extracting multiple PDF docs from a consolidated
PDF "container" doc...
iText Community,
I'm new to this list so I hope my first outreach adheres to all standards &
protocol for participation...
[OBJECTIVE]: I have PDF files already concatenated (by a mechanism other than
iText) into a single PDF. I need to burst - or "de-stack" those files back into
the individual constituent documents contained in the concatenated
"parent-container" PDF. Chapter 6 of 'iText In Action' shows us how to burst
documents at the page level. I need to burst documents not by page, but at
arbitrary points in the content marked by particular delimiters denoting the
start and end of each original PDF document.
'Not looking to be handed the answer - just a pointer w.r.t. where best to
start in learning how to leverage the API for basic functions like this that
might not be explicitly captured in the examples.
<+> I have 'iText in Action - 2nd Edition' as an eBook, and all examples fully
loaded and executing in an IDE project.
Thanks very much in advance for any initial direction.
