Page range settings are available in many of the PDF-XChange Editor dialog boxes. Follow the rules detailed below to customize page ranges:

 

Use commas to delimiter individual pages.

Use hyphens to delimiter page ranges.

Use commas to delimiter page ranges if multiple page ranges are being defined.

Use a dash before a page number to determine all pages from the beginning of the document to the specified page. For example -7 defines all pages from the beginning of the document to page seven.

Use a dash after a page number to determine all pages from the specified page to the end of the document. For example 7- defines all pages from page seven to the end of the document.

Use the caret symbol (^n) to specify the document page that is n pages from the end of the document, or use (^n-^n) to specify a page range from the end of the document. For example, ^2 specifies the second-last page of the document, and ^5-^1 specifies the last five pages of the document.

Note that when you are specifying a custom page range it is not necessary for the order of pages to be sequential, or for each value in the range to be unique.

 

Examples

 

1, 3, 5-7  will process pages 1, 3, 5, 6 and 7.

1, 3, 5-7, ^2-^1 (when applied to a document with ten pages) will process pages 1, 3, 5, 6, 7, 9 and 10.

3- will process all pages except the first two pages of the document.

-5, 7 will process pages 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 and 7.

-5, ^3-^1 (when applied to a document with ten pages) will process pages 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 8, 9 and 10.
