Method 1

Simply print the pages you want as a PDF. Most PDF viewers have this function.

The problem with this approach is that the page dimensions may change.

Method 2

  1. Install GhostScript and run the following command

    $ gs -sDEVICE=pdfwrite -dNOPAUSE -dBATCH -dSAFER \
  -dFirstPage=22 -dLastPage=36 \
  -sOutputFile=outfile_p22-p36.pdf 100p-inputfile.pdf
Pdf Ghostscript

Senior Cloud Developer

I’m a Brazilian computer engineer based in Germany, passionate about tech, science, photography, and languages.

I’ve been programming for about two decades already, exploring everything from mobile apps and web development to machine learning. These days I focus on cloud SRE and data engineering.

I volunteer in the open source and Python communities, helping organize PyCon DE and PyData Berlin, mentoring, and contributing with code and translations.

On my blog, I share Linux tips, setup guides, and personal notes I’ve written for future reference. I hope others find them helpful as well. The content is available in multiple languages.

Browse my gallery for some of my photography.

Away from the keyboard, you’ll find me at concerts, playing clarinet, cycling, scuba diving, or exploring new places, cultures, and cuisines.

Always happy to connect! 🙂
