I have a 100+ page PDF document.
I wish to extract 2 of those pages, each to their own PDF file.

How about

mutool merge -o Page-n.pdf <100-page.pdf> n

where <100-page.pdf> is the original file
Page-n.pdf is the one page file extracted

See man mutool. Roger

pdftk can do what you want, and more.
