A recent real example I needed was stripping a house sale fixtures and fittings form section from a solicitors bulk PDF. The required pages were from doc CCL ... etc. and pages required from p45-52, so, installing then scrolling to bottom of the man page for an example:<\/p>\n

sudo apt-get install pdftk:<\/span><\/p>\n

CD into the doc's folder then:<\/p>\n

pdftk CCL SALE PACK.pdf cat 45-52 output fixfittings.pdf\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Now I have just the 8 pages I require in a new PDF:<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

PDF-Shuffler is more basic; you can select the pages then export\/delete\/rotate etc. with a RClick:<\/p>\n
