I've used PDF SAM (Split And Merge) ( http://www.pdfsam.org/ ) numerous times and it works well.
It's a free Java app, so you will need Java installed. It allows PDFs to be extracted to single pages and then reattached back again.
This works fine, I just wish they would add something like Adobe Acrobats "organize pages" were one could easily remove, add, rotate or reorder pages. – Foad – 2019-01-08T09:32:01.877

You can use command line tools pdftk and qpdf for this purpose. They are available on Windows and linux.
Use scoop to install them easily on Windows:
scoop install pdftk
scoop install qpdf
Here is the example of the code to keep only pages 1-9 and 26-end of the original file input.pdf and save them to outputfile.pdf.:
pdftk example: (taken from here)
pdftk input.pdf cat 1-9 26-end output outputfile.pdf
qpdf example:
qpdf input.pdf --pages input.pdf 1-9,26-z -- outputfile.pdf

You can use any PDF editor, or if you don't want to download/install anything big, use the command-line portable pdftk (PDF Toolkit). Just extract the EXE and DLL to the same directory as your PDF, then from the command prompt use a command similar to the following:
pdftk in.pdf cat 1-12 14-end output out.pdf
This will delete page 13 from the PDF. See the man(ual) and examples pages for more help/options, or just type pdftk --help
.
You can search for PDFTK portable version for a GUI version without installatoin. – Kenneth L – 2016-01-03T14:32:54.410
I wish there were a command to remove certain pages. that would be way more easier IMO. – Foad – 2019-01-08T09:32:50.483

Another option is to use a PDF printer (e.g. CutePDF ( http://www.cutepdf.com/ ) )
"Print" your PDF to another PDF making sure to choose only the pages you want from the print dialog.
Many OS have a PDF printer installed by default. – adam.r – 2018-09-22T21:19:18.667

Another commercial option is using Ricoh's Print&Share:
There are several ways to "remove" pages. Easiest option:
Now it is also possible to deselect pages based on conditions and automatically instead of doing it manually.
This can be for example if the page contains too much color or too much white space or if it contains certain words, or specific page ranges, etc...
The page selection options can be found here:

Pdf printer drivers, as in Foxit, will convert your original pdf file, but may result in a different quality, or much larger file, when using high quality print.
Alternatively, it is recommended to simply cut off pages, from the original pdf file, without converting it.
This online tool does it very well: http://smallpdf.com/split-pdf
1. Upload your file with drag and drop or press Choose file.
2. Select the pages you want to save into a new file.
3. Press the Split PDF button and download your file.

The free foxit reader comes with a pdf printer that allows you to print (ranges of) pages to a pdf file. And it's a great alternative to Adobe Reader.
2It would be helpful to mention what "tips" exactly you've tried so you don't get the same suggestions over again. – slhck – 2012-12-11T19:32:53.783
