While I very much agree with Craig's comments about pdftk, the program 
is small enough and simple enough to use ('pdftk your.pdf burst') that 
you should at least try it to know why you don't want to use it. For 
now, but hopefully not for long, this is a job that must be done outside 
of Scribus.
