Is it possible to make a .pdf of a specific chapter or section of a long
document (not the whole document)?

Method 1: Stick everything except the desired part in comments (and hope
this does not screw up the pagination, or leave cross-references undefined).
Method 2: Make a PDF of the entire document, then use Ghostscript to
produce a PDF of selected pages, as in the following (which extracts
pages 3 through 5 inclusive from sourcefile.pdf):
gsc -dFirstPage=3 -dLastPage=5 -sDEVICE=pdfwrite -sOutputFile=test.pdf
-dBATCH -dNOPAUSE sourcefile.pdf
Method 3: I use a PDF printer driver (PDFCreator) that, like most
printer drivers, can output selected pages. So I can print the document
to it from Acrobat Reader and extract just the pages I want.
