Command Line Interface 
 
7.  ARTS PDF Split Pro™ CL 
 
 
  
ARTS PDF Split Pro™ can be launched from the command line using command line switches to 
specify what type of splitting to process. ARTS PDF Split Pro™ Command Line Interface (CLI or CL) 
application can be found in the ARTS PDF Split Pro folder e.g. C:\Program Files\ARTS PDF Split 
Pro\ARTS PDF Split Pro CL.exe. 
 
It is important that spaces are placed between each switch specified. Some switches are followed 
by specific operands, and these operands must also be separated by a space. If a pathname 
contains a space, then the path must be enclosed in quotes. An example of this can be seen below: 
  
-i c:\artssplitpro.pdf   correct  
-i c:\ARTS PDF Split Pro.pdf   wrong  
-i "c:\ARTS PDF Split Pro.pdf"  correct
