Ghostscrip Extract every nth Pages from PDF
I don't know if this can be done, I'm just learning ghostscript. Say I have multiple PDF files each about 500 Pages in length. Can I setup ghostscript to go extract every 100 pages from each document and save each as a separate PDF file?
So I have FileA.pdf, 500 Pages in Length. So I'd now want FileA_0001.pdf FileA_0002.pdf FileA_0003.pdf FileA_0004.pdf FileA_0005.pdf
I know how so split them in separate files, but I'd like a way to split or extract every 100 Pages in each PDF.

Does it have to be Ghostscript, or would another tool be acceptable?

Ghostscript would be best, since it’s the main tool we use to do PDF manipulation, but I’m open to suggestions.
