Or you scan it with something and resave it as a PDF file.

591870 2007-09-17 09:54:00 I use PDFCreator to make my pdf files
and when I print to pdf I can put it on hold and it'll go into this manager kinda thing
then when I print again I do the same thing so I have two items on hold

then I can merge these two items together making one document

so I guess you can try to print the range of pages you want without the unwanted page, then join them together

oh and now I kinda just thought about this other method
why not just set print pages 1,2,3,5,6,7 to skip page 4
so the new pdf won't have the unwanted page 4

591871 2007-09-18 03:02:00 Long techy answer: PDF isn't a linear document representation and so you can't just remove a page (PDF, like Postscript, can have programming logic to do with page numbers). You can print certain pages to Postscript/PDF but the conversion between these formats isn't lossless and so you may lose data. See page 6 of www.pdf-tools.com


Short answer: Print the pages you want in order to remove it but check the result to see if it looks weird.
