Pdftk output is exactly like the original file, so it keeps all links.
All links in the generated file will work if they point to an existent position.
For example, if there is a link for the chapter 10, but the chapter 10
is not in the file, that link will not work (obvious?).



I guess I wasn't precise enough. The PDF format supports links across 
files. The OP looks for a tool which does the split and rewrites the 
metadata so that links happen across the different pdf files. 
Apparently, pdftk is not this tool. But pdftk is based on iText which is 
very powerful, so I can imagine someone could hack at it do get this 
behavior. As I said, it's rather nontrivial, but it's not obvious that 
it cannot be done.


Nevertheless, pdftk is a great tool as it is.

 Just curious, will pdftk preserve links between chapters? This seems
 rather nontrivial.

Pdftk output is exactly like the original file, so it keeps all links.
All links in the generated file will work if they point to an existent position.
For example, if there is a link for the chapter 10, but the chapter 10
is not in the file, that link will not work (obvious?).

 I have tried to split the document by pdf creator. it works but, the link 
 cannot work.
 Any suggestion?

Use Pdftk. http://www.pdflabs.com/tools/pdftk-the-pdf-toolkit/
It is much easier than using a pdf printer like PDF Creator, and the
output is much better.

Its usage is trivial:

- pdftk infile.pdf cat 1-20 output outfile.pdf
This command create a new file named outfile.pdf with the pages 1-20
from infile.pdf.

By default, the metadata is lost (bookmarks, authorname, title, password etc).
But you can use pdftk's update_info parameter to insert metadata on
a file. Google it if you need.
