Automatically splitting a PDF issue into articles
A single PDF is useful as a complete issue, while individual article pages support discovery and linking. Wick tailors splitting rules to your journal layout and focuses on preserving source pages.
Check article boundaries and metadata together
Contents, headings and page ranges inform the extraction profile. Check authors, abstracts, keywords and references. Preserve language-specific blocks separately.
Compare extracted files with the source
Missing pages, duplicates and uncertain data are flagged for review. Labor and Alfraganus projects used source-PDF comparisons. Approved results are then added to the journal archive.
Frequently asked questions
Will every PDF split equally well?
No. Text PDFs, scans, columns and differing layouts need different rules. We first produce and review a sample result from your actual file.
