You can extract pages. Take a look at the "doc.extractPages" function in the Acrobat JavaScript Reference. Note that this is a heavily protected function. It cannot be run from a script in a PDF file, or from within Reader. It can only be run from a batch script, trusted function, or the JavaScript Console.

Question on this general topic...

Once I Reader-enable a document, a working menu item for "doc.extractPages" folder level script (trusted function) no longer works in Pro or Standard...

I need the document reader-enabled so users with only Reader can sign and email the PDF, but the automated extract/save menu items then need to work for one user with Standard...

Is this possible once I have Reader-enabled the document, if so, what are some options? Thanks in advance...

Edit: Another option-- there is an intermediate step that the Standard user has to do that is currently setup as a "saveAs" trusted function...is there a way to call the "File" menu item "Save a copy" with an automated folder path??? This would remove the reader-enabled, and then the user could go to that folder to perform the extract/ save functions...
