# PDF Splitter
The **PDF Splitter** is a desktop application built in Java for splitting PDF files by size, by pages, and extracting email addresses from PDF documents. This project utilizes the **PDFBox** and **iTextPDF** libraries to perform these operations effectively.
---
## Features
- **Split PDFs by size**: Break large PDF files into smaller chunks of a specified size.
- **Split PDFs by pages**: Divide a PDF into multiple parts after a given number of pages.
- **Extract email addresses**: Retrieve and save all email addresses found in a PDF document to a `.txt` file.
---
## How It Works
### Main Operations:
1. **Split PDF After Specific Pages**:
- Select the number of pages after which the PDF should be split.
- The resulting PDFs will be saved in the output folder.
2. **Split PDF by Specific Size**:
- Specify the maximum allowable size for each split PDF in kilobytes.
- The application will create multiple PDFs, ensuring each part adheres to the size limit.
3. **Extract Email Addresses**:
- Scans the text within PDF files for valid email addresses.
- Extracted emails are saved in a `.txt` file for easy access.
---
## Requirements
- **Java 8** or higher.
- **Maven** for dependency management.
