Split Bulk PDF Statements by Asking Claude
The accounting export is one PDF with every client's statement stacked inside. Describe the structure — 'three pages per client' — and the agent translates it into a page-range expression, splits the batch into per-client files, and reads them back to verify nothing leaked between clients.
Extract Invoice Pages from Bank Statements with PHP
Split combined PDF documents and extract specific page ranges using PHP and the Apdf Split API. Perfect for separating invoices from bank statements, extracting sections from vendor documents, or isolating specific pages.
Your code made the PDF.
Then it went dark.
Opened, read, re-read, dropped on page 4 — you never see any of it. Share the PDFs you generate through Apdf recipient links, and every signal becomes something you can act on: ping Slack, update the CRM, let an agent follow up. Same account, same API token, one more call.
