Default "Export" Schematic Page from a .PDF File Service Manual

Hi,

I have (free) Adobe Reader V5.0 (Windows 98SE computer). I bought a .PDF
file service manual for a TV. Unfortunately, a printout (quality HP printer)
of a schematic page does not produce the desired results. I tried everything.

Adobe's "Help" indicates I can print to an bitmap image file, but no
details on how to do it! This would be GREAT because I can use a graphics
editor to select the part of the schematic I want printed (larger print).

Does anyone know a technique to "export" a schematic page from a .PDF
file into a graphics image file (ex. PAGE38.BMP)?

Thanks in advance, Brad

Before you type your password, credit card number, etc.,
be sure there is no active keystroke logger (spyware) in your PC.


You can't extract pages with the free reader. You need the full Adobe Acrobat
software (expensive) package to do that. And if the author of the PDF file
secured the PDF package, even the full Acrobat package won't allow you to
extract pages unless you know the password to the file.

Try with the foxit pdf reader.
