Split landscape PDF into portrait pages

rated 0 times [ 2] [ 0] / answers: 1 / hits: 1867 / 3 Years ago, fri, september 3, 2021, 9:08:09

I am given a couple PDF files which are created using LaTeX in a landscape format. On my 24" monitor, I can comfortably read them full screen, but it is a pain to use when the windows is smaller, like on my Netbook.

Is there some way to split this PDF up into several landscape pages?

Use Briss

It does a wonderful job at this even though it is not too user-friendly.

Download the archive and extract it somewhere.

Create a briss.sh script file containing the following code in the same folder:

cd ~/path/to/briss

java -Xmx128m -D java.library.path=. -jar briss-0.9.jar

Browse to the folder where you created the script, right-click on the script, click properties, permissions tab, tick Allow executing file as program.

run the script by double-clicking it.
