Why not just use the page-range selection in the Print dialogue box 
and set the "Output Options" in the dialogue to "Save file as PDF"?

No muss, no fuss, no changes to your source file.

And I will take this opportunity to say how bizarre I find it that in 
Windows (at least 98 and 2000) there does not seem to be any standard 
way to generate postscript (or PDF) files from arbitrary programs. I 
have relied on this feature of MacOS for years for putting all manner 
of stuff on my web page.
