Is there a way to have texexec output separate pdf files for each page it
generates instead of a single pdf file? I have looked through all of the
post-processing commands but can not figure out how to do it from that.
Thank you,
paul

Not sure, but pdftk (the PDF toolkit, a.k.a. Swiss army knife) has a
'burst' option. For example:
pdftk mydoc.pdf burst
gives you pg_0001.pdf, pg_0002.pdf, .... You can control the output
names with the 'output' option by passing a printf-style string:
pdftk mydoc.pdf burst output 'mydoc-%02d.pdf'
