Why Split a PDF Vertically?

A vertical split divides each page from top to bottom, creating a left page and a right page.

This is the most common split needed for scanned books and magazines where two portrait pages appear side by side on a single landscape scan.

Vertical splitting turns each landscape scan into two portrait pages — the correct format for reading on screen or printing.
