Technology Makes the World a Better Place

Does anyone know an easy way to email one page from a .pdf using Adobe Acrobat Reader 7.0? For reasons too annoying to explain, I often need to email a single page, or a handful of pages, out of one ginorourmous pdf or other. Despite much clicking around inside the reader, I have not discerned any decent way to do this. The snapshot tool almost works, except that the resulting snapshots seem to be (a) illegible and/or (b) truncated. >.

Programs such as pdf995 let you "print" from any application to a pdf file. You could choose the page to print from the original document and send it to the pdf-maker to make a new single-page pdf.

Yes, this is what I would suggest, having investigated further. 7.0 will let you print individual pages (select the page in the "pages" tab off to the left") to a new PDF.

Thanks! I'd hoped to get out of this without having to get any new software installed (it's for work and I'm not allowed to install jack squat on my work PC on my own), but I guess fishing one page out of a PDF is too complicated a task to ask of Reader. O_o

I know you've stated before that you can't install software yourself :X Darn IT eh? Here's the software we actually use at my office, since I'm the IT guy I get to install it :)

The license is free for pretty much all uses, the only caveat is that you need to also install GhostScript, which is included as a link from that page.
