Unable to export only one page from a PDF file, Help please!

[W0rldTrav3l3r]

Hi adobe community,

got a problem and can't find a way to solve it, hope you can help me.

I have a special pdf file, don't know if some VBA or Java coding was done, I can press a button on the first page and then the view goes automatically to page 5 or one page is a spreadsheet with buttons and by clicking I can add or remove rows.

I need one single page of this file but can't manage to get it extracted / exported. By trying to delete all other not needed pages the bin has no function is shown only in light grey. By dragging the page needed out of the window (using a Mac) a blank white pdf is created. By right clicking on the page needed and choosing "extract" a white blank pdf is created. By using preview on Mac, a "Please wait...." error message is shown.....

Do you have any idea? Unfortunately I don't have access to the original file anymore.

Thanks a lot for your help!

Look under File - Properties - Description. What does it say under "Application"?

Thanks for your reply!

It says "Adobe LiveCycle Designer ES 10.0"

So there is no way for me to get that one page extracted by using Acrobat Pro DC but instead I need to use Adobe LiveCycle Designer?

It's not possible to extract pages from an LCD form, unless you have LCD.

One possible solution is to flatten the file by sending it to the Adobe PDF printer, for example, and then you'll be able to do i.t
