I've seen this question posted before so I thought I'd post my solution that I came up with today. I had a very big pdf file with hundreds of pages of which I only needed to send someone 2. I first extracted the two pages I wanted to postscript by: pdftops -f 91 -l 92 -levelsp3 myfile.pdf This creates a file myfile.ps. The -f and -l optioins are: pdftops -f (start page) -l (last page) -level3sep file.pdf To convert them back to pdf I used ps2pdf14, using ps2pdf gives a very rough output. So ps2pdf14 myfile.ps outputfile.pdf If you don't specify the outputfile it will either overwrite your original pdf file or fail (I haven't checked but it can only be one of these two outcomes). Hope this helps somebody. Jethro
