JPedal provides several methods to allow easy page extraction from PDF files.
These tools will allow you to create a copy of the PDF with only the content from the specified pages. The original file is left untouched by this process unless you overwrite it with the output.

Static Convenience Methods
When extracting a page range you can use the SetOfIntegerSyntax to define multiple ranges to extract into the output file.
//Extract all pages between rangeStart and rangeEnd inclusive
PdfPageExtraction.extractPageRange(new File("inputFile.pdf"), new File("outputFile.pdf"), rangeStart, rangeEnd);
//Extract all pages defined by the page range string using the SetOfIntegerSyntax
PdfPageExtraction.extractPageRange(new File("inputFile.pdf"), new File("outputFile.pdf"), stringPageRange);
//Extract a single page
PdfPageExtraction.extractSinglePage(new File("inputFile.pdf"), new File("outputFile.pdf"), singlePageNumber);
