You now see how important it is to exercise due care when
- phrasing your request
- formatting your post

vgersh99's proposal fulfills your request in post#1 (given that the split into file1 and file2 was hidden invisibly somewhere in your text and overlooked by the mod who inserted the necessary code tags for you) , and even does so for your post#3 as every file produced starts with dn:. How to define the optimal position of a file break?

Would this paraphrase of the specification come close to what you need:
Split the file into n contiguous chunks on record boundaries while keeping the original order and togetherness of the records?

NAME
yodlpost - Yodl post-processor SYNOPSIS
yodlpost [options] index yodlout [out] DESCRIPTION
The Yodl post processor is used to solve references into the converted text, and to split (where appropriate) the converted Yodl text in parts. Some conversions do not require post-processing, such as LaTeX, but most do. Therefore, in most cases a Yodl conversion consists of two phases: o First, yodl(1) is called, producing a raw output file and an associated index file; o Then, yodlpost(1) is called, converting these two files into a final document. Normally, yodl2...(1) scripts are used to perform complete Yodl conversions. OPTIONS
-x ext: extension of the out-s if different from out's extension itself. If omitted, and out has no extension, ypp (Yodl Post Processor) is used. SEE ALSO
yodlstriproff(1), yodl(1), yodlbuiltins(7), yodlconverters(1), yodlletter(7), yodlmacros(7), yodlmanpage(7), yodlverbinsert(1). BUGS
