I have a large document (several hundred pages large) that I would like to extract some pages from. I know you've got this solved now, but as an alternative: If the pages you want to extract are consecutive, the command line utility pdfseparate (in the poppler-utils package on Debian) might be an efficient way to do it.
(I'm sure there used to be a similar utility, possibly called pdfpages, that could do it for non-consecutive pages too, but that seems to have disappeared.) -- Kind regards, Dan Hatton E-mail: dan.hatton@btinternet.com Signal: dch.28 Threema: 5UAVHC96 SIP: dan.hatton@sip.linphone.org
