[net.text] printing specific pages?

riddle@emory.UUCP (Larry Riddle) (01/17/86)

This is perhaps a routine question, but as I'm not very familiar
yet with ditroff, ptroff, etc. I thought I would ask it here - 

Sometimes with a long document, I want to print only a specific
range of pages, not the whole thing.  How can I do this easily
without cutting those pages out of the document and putting them
into a separate file to print?  

Any suggestions?

Use the -o<list> option of [nt]roff.
