additional info

so I run this on my mac or on a remote server with some unix system (I'm using university resources), don't remember which one exactly

I need to read part of the filename and make a respective directory and put the file in there. I can identify part1 from the filename, because it has to be first 6 digits, the rest is part2_part3.

Code:
/dir1/dir2/part1part2_part3.xml

to

Code:
/dir1/part1/dir2/part2_part3.xml

roughly.

here's an example:
Code:
/levelone/level2/123456789_1.xml

to
Code:
/levelone/123456/level2/789_1.xml

I need to do that for all files in a given directory

NAME
podofopages - move and delete pages in a PDF document SYNOPSIS
podofopages [--delete] [--move] [inputfile] [outputfile] DESCRIPTION
podofopages is one of the command line tools from the PoDoFo library that provide several useful operations to work with PDF files. It can move and delete pages in a PDF document. OPTIONS
--delete NUMBER Deletes the page NUMBER (number is 0-based). The page will not really be deleted from the PDF. It is only removed from the so called pagestree and therefore becomes hidden. The content of the page can still be retrieved from the document though. --move FROM TO Moves a page FROM TO in the document (FROM and TO are 0-based). SEE ALSO
