Hi all,

I'm new at Adobe so I hope someone can help me with my following problem:

I have a very large PDF containing 720000 pages of employee-infomation over the last 3 years. I need to seperate all the pages into individual ones. each page contains 1 employee with a employeeIDnumber. so splitting them is easy, but i need to change the filenames into employeeID's can I do this automatically?

I wanted to do this with Java, but I have Adobe 7.0 and can't find the debugger.

My Product Information:
Acrobat Standard 7.0, Windows
