Is there an easy way (in Preview or whatever) to scale up and split a PDF file with a single page into multiple pages? What I would like is to split say an A3 paper document into two A4 pages, to print separately and then put together with tape.
How can I do such a thing in OS X?
For example, let's say you have a 10-page PDF file that you want to split, with the first 7 pages in one file and the last 3 in another. In the Pages section, you would enter '1-7' to create a PDF file with the first 7 pages. You can then repeat the process to make the second document. Select File and Select Folder. If you click on “Select File” option, the tool will allow splitting one pdf file into multiple pages. And if you choose “Select Folder” option, then the tool enables to select the complete PDF folder and split up in separate pages.

Adobe Reader can do this, too: It includes a Poster Print option in its custom print dialog.
It’s the first time I missed a feature from Preview (or the native OS X print dialog) that Adobe Reader has.
Adobe Reader is free (as in beer) software, it used to be called Acrobat Reader. (Do not confuse it with full-blown Acrobat or any other expensive Adobe product, which can probably do that, too.)
If you in Preview select the half of the A3 (e.g. use the Inspector ⌘+I so you get the exact size) - then choose Copy ⌘+C, and paste it as a new file ⌘+N (my suggestion would be to save each new file as its page number). After that do the same with the other half of the A3.
If you save every new file as its page number, then afterward you can select all the new files in Finder. Once they're all selected, right click and choose Quick Actions > Create PDF (available in macOS Mojave). You'll have a new PDF that is composed of every pdf you had selected.

After googling, I found that 'Preview.app' and 'Automator.app' can handle this job.
- Open the pdf file in Preview.app
- Show Thumbnail
- Select all pages
- From Menu, choose 'Tools' - 'Select Tool'
- Select right side of a page to crop
- From Menu, choose 'Tools' - 'Show Inspector'7, On the 'Inspector' window, choose 'Crop and rotate inspector'
- Push 'Crop' button (in 'Selected Pages' group)
- From Menu, choose 'File' - 'Print', and choose 'PDF' - 'Save as PDF..', and save as 'right.pdf'
- Do same thing(4-7) for left side and save as 'leftside.pdf'
- Start Automator.app and make workflow with following actions.a. 'Get Specified Finder Items' (choose 'leftside.pdf' and 'rightside.pdf')b. 'Combine PDF Pages'c. 'Move Finder Items'
- Run the Automator workflow.
A small JAVA program called Briss will do exactly this job.
Preview cannot do this unfortunately, but an $5 application called Tiler does this with ease.
Hope this helps.

Briss is wonderful, exactly what we needed to divide each sheet from a pdf file into two parts. To create the selection for the second half of the page, draw a border on the uncovered portion of the first selection on the pdf page. To display sizes right click on the every selection, and select 'Select / Deselect rectangle'. Also, you can read the help :). Thanks!
See pdfposter (you can install it with macports):
If you have Illustrator you can simply create a document with several letter size artboards and place the PDF.
You print to PDF with the following setting:- change page setup to A4 size (if the original document was in A3)- then print.
for the other side of page, you need to rotate the original file and do the same as above.
Select option to print -> Poster This will split your page into your default page size(for letter size 8 x 11)you can select tile scale to zoom within this split page. You can also select overlap. You can select labels so you know which page goes where.
