I have a script droplet that does this exactly. I wrote separate versions
for OS 9.2.2 and Jaguar (there are some slight syntax differences). Tell me
which OS you are running, and I will forward the appropriate script to you.

Subject: Applescript to burst multi-page PDFs into a series of single pages
I'm new to AppleScript, so please be gentle with me ;-)
My problem is:
I have a number of PDFs which have multiple pages (many thousands). I
want
to be able to write a script that will split each PDF into 1000s of
individual PDF files, where each PDF file is one unique page of the
original, in the order that they were in the original file.
If the original document was named 'FooBar.PDF' each PDF would be named
FooBar0001.PDF, FooBar00002.PDF etc.
Acrobat has an Extract Page command but this does not appear in its
AppleScript Dictionary. Any suggestions? Any canned solutions out there
(commercial or shareware)?
