I need to read about 4 tons of some really sparse pdf specs. I also

be able to perform cut'n'paste among different pdfs, 5 pages here, 10
pages there, until I put together maybe 100-200 pages, and sit back
and read it. What I can't do is print just a few pages out of several
800-plus page specs, and perform paper cut'n'pasting.
If you find a way to 'save' only parts of a PDF document, i.e. pages
5-10, 17 and 25 in a separate file, then the ``pdfjam'' port includes
a utility called ``pdfjoin'' :)
/usr/local/bin/pdf2ps # ghostscript-gnu-7.07_15/+CONTENTS:bin/pdf2ps
then gs allows printing of page numbers
then print PS or
/usr/local/bin/ps2pdf # /usr/ports/print/ghostscript-gnu
