I'm not very much into this PDF 'business', but I wonder why you are
using those PDF_Xchange and Foxit Reader's, instead of Acrobat that is
also free AFAIK.

There's also the Nitro reader that has also been mentioned in this
context.

I'm also aware of the many security problems that have hit Adobe Acrobat
but there are also problems to be aware of when installing those other
PDF programs.

Also I do know that to lift out separate pictures from a series, I can
use Star Office, and possibly some of its successors too, and maybe Foxit
or Nitro.


Have a nice day,

Holger
