Hal,
I just checked on my LO 3.6.4 and discovered there is a way to export 
only certain page(s).  Don't use the button on the toolbar, but use File 
-> Export as PDF.
A dialog comes up with "Range" in the top left corner of the "General" 
tab.  There, you can select "All", "Pages", or "Selection" (if 
pre-selected).  The "Pages" option allows you to specify which range of 
pages, or a single page number, you want to be included in the export.  
This dialog has many other PDF options that the toolbar button does not 
offer.
However, I may have mis-read your problem.  If you want to have an 
automated method of creating a separate file for each page, then this 
may not help.  If your document is long, using this method can be 
tedious and an automated method would be preferable.

Hope this helps.
