A thesis into chapters, a bundle into exhibits, a course pack into weeks: when you know the page numbers, range splitting is the fastest way to produce the files. Each range you type becomes a separate PDF; an open-ended range (13-) runs to the last page.
Parts are named after the original with the range added. The split runs in your browser.

Is the file uploaded?
