split long screenshots into standard page sizes (pagination of capture)

Question

I have been using the free version for years and it is my go-to capture extension for ensuring all visual/photo/art elements are retained. However, when I save a long scrolling webpage as a pdf it saves as one long page. There does not seem to be a way to split it or convert it to a multipage pdf for printing or deleting sections or pages, or custom setting the desired breaks to create sections for individual pages. There is nothing in Acrobat Pro DC either, as their split tool is to separate pdfs made up of discrete individual pages, back into the single page form, not slice a single page into separate document pages.
Before I purchase the Premium version, I need to know if there is a pagination option for the incredibly long single page pdfs FireShot creates? Having to do manual selections of frame after frame to create a 48-page screen grab is laborious to say the least. Additionally, it appears that Acrobat Pro DC maxes out at a certain length and truncates the screen grab long after you close out of the online resource to use the capture. Is there a pop-up warning with a dotted line or pointer that tells the user that they have reached the max length for a single page in Acrobat, and do they want to split it into separate pages to not lose content?

Accepted Answer
