You could look at psselect from Angus Duggan's psutils, which may be a package on your Linux distribution. psselect allows you to extract a number of pages from your PS file. To split it into several one-page files you will need to wrap it in a loop. The pages directive (which I think you allude to in your last post) can be used to find the number for the loop.

For a large number of pages this would be inefficient, of course.
