How to print selected pages?

Sometimes, you don’t need to print all the pages in a PDF document or even a continuous range of pages. If you’re using Acrobat 6 or Adobe Reader 6, you can print individual, nonconsecutive pages in the document. To do this, you need to select the individual pages before you open the Print dialog box by following these steps:

1. Click the Pages tab in the Navigation pane to bring its palette to the front. If the Navigation pane is closed, press F6 to open and select the Pages palette.
2. To see all the thumbnails for the pages you want to select for printing, you may need to switch to small thumbnails and widen the Navigation pane:
• To switch to small thumbnails, click the Options button at the top of the palette and then click Reduce Page Thumbnails near the bottom of its pop-up menu.
• To widen the Navigation pane until all the thumbnails are displayed (or all the ones with pages you want to print), position the mouse pointer on the border between the Navigation and Document panes and then, when the mouse pointer becomes a double-headed arrow, drag the border to the right until the Navigation pane is wide enough to display all the thumbnails.
3. Ctrl+click (Ô+click on the Macintosh) the thumbnails for all the individual pages you want to print to select them in the Thumbnail palette.
4. Choose File➪Print or press Ctrl+P (Ô+P on the Mac). The Print dialog box opens with the Selected Pages radio button selected.
5. Click OK to begin printing only the selected pages in the PDF document.

To print just a graphic on the page, click the Snapshot tool (G) on the Basic Tools toolbar and use it to draw a bounding box around the image. After selecting the image in this manner, right-click (Control+click on the Mac) to display the image’s context menu and click the Print option to open the Print dialog box.
