I've tried copying and pasting into Word, but it's in columns and won't work as I can only seem to copy one page at a time and formatting doesn't copy over. It says I can only save changes in Acrobat version 8.0 which I am using.
As I'm sure I'm doing it all wrong can someone point me in the right direction?

I'm not sure if you can with Acrobat, as I don't use it.
If you don't mind a watermark being added to he top right corner of each page, the free version of Foxit PDF page organiser should do it. Just install, open up the pdf file you want with it, and it will show it in the main screen. It shows page#, source file, srcpage, folder and note, and under it the actual file. Double click it, and it'll bring up options, letting you select which pages to keep. Just type in the first and last numbers, hit ok. The file>generate PDF, uncheck the 4 options, and you're done.0 -
Click on Print and in the dialogue box that comes up, where it says pages from/to, put in the ones you want.0

I don't want to print it Conor, sorry, but rather need to save a small portion of a large document as a smaller document to email someone.Do not allow the risk of failure to stop you trying!0 -
Give this program a go
http://www.win2pdf.com/products/win2pdf.htm
It installs a "printer" which saves pdf files, i'm sure you could just select certain pages to "print".

Sean,
Will it allow me to save just part of the document?
Thanks Sean.Do not allow the risk of failure to stop you trying!0 -
Yes, you can select the pages to save like you would when you print, the program does add an additional page at the end of the document stating that it was made with win2pdf.

You could download Source Forge PDF creator, and just print the last 4 pages.
It then creates a PDF of the PDF, but the last 4 pages with no loss or adverts. (You can also create a PDF from anything else too!)A friend is someone who understands your past, believes in your future, and accepts you just the way you are.0 -
I'm going to have to check that out too, thanks for the recommendation!
