6.2.2.1. 
Split into single pages  
  
By selecting this option, the watched folder will split each PDF placed in the input 
directory into fragments with one page in each fragment. That is, when a PDF is 
dropped into the input folder, the PDF will be split into single pages and saved to the 
output directory.  
  
6.2.2.2. 
Split by control file  
  
By selecting this option, the watched folder will split each PDF into fragments based 
on a control file the user selects. Control files go into the input folder, and the first 
line of the control file should be a full path to the PDF file to be split.
