Trivial question about texexec --pdfsplit

[Diego Depaoli]

How texexec --pdfsplit somefile.pdf works?
I'm trying to split my booklet [A5][A4,landscape], texexec runs but I
get only the last page in texexec.pdf.


Cheers

texexec reads the number of pages in the document and produce
for each page a new tex document in the following form.

\starttext
\startTEXpage
\externalfigure[document][page=...]
\stopTEXpage
\stoptext

It could be possible the resulting pdf file is not renamed and overwritten
from the next page and you end with the last page only (untested).

If you want to split pdf documents you could also try pdftk.

Tested, it's exactly what happens.
