Print to Postscript and use psselect from pstools.
Thanks for pointing that out - I'd never noticed those things lurking on my system! Seemed to work just right. I have an idea it's called 'psutils' though, just to be pedantic.
Don't use PDF. ghostscript, xpdf and acroread have different problems with them ;-)
I like that solution. Just one snag: I have all these IC data sheets sent to me, which I need to be able to read/print in order to be able to earn my crust. In the good old days, of course, manufacturers sent out real Data Books. Now all one gets is a CD-rom or an instruction to "go to www... and download the PDF". Either way it needs the use of GS/XPDF/AR.
Unless, of course, you know differently....?
Thanks for the input!
