Removing pages from a .pdf file?

2005-07-19 Thread Angus Leeming
I've just generated a pdf file using pdflatex that runs from page -8
to page 11. Is there a tool that I can use to remove pages -8 to 0
(inclusive) from the pdf file? Or is there a way of getting pdflatex
to output only pages 1 to 11?

No, I don't want to hack my lyx file ;-)

Angus,

The pdf toolkit may help you:

Another solution (a commercial one) is to use Acrobat Writer or
Acrobat Reader Professional (not sure about the name).

I print the pdf file with the selected pages into a file.
With xpdf it is a ps-file and then I use ps2pdf.

The best way to do this is to output a .ps file from Lyx and then use 
ghostview to convert just pages 1 to 11 to a pdf file.  It works well and 
the quality is fine.
