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. >.

Printing stuff so it can be scanned makes my teeth hurt. >.<

I actually have an option slightly better than this: I can do a virtual print to our electronic document storage system, and then email that file, but I was hoping for a quicker and more elegant system. I think the "print to pdf-making program" sounds like the best option, if I can get IT to go along with it.

Understood -- and you're using Method One already, or at least a variant of it.

The only benefit of the last option is that you can also include other documents that are not available electronically.

Oooh, new thought. If you have a new enough printer. You may be able to print to a message store on the printer, then have the printer send it back to you as a pdf. This works quite well on the canon imagerunner line of multifunction devices. Wit hthe newer ones I could even log into the printer's internal webpage to tell it to e-mail me the pdf.
