Ghostscript can do this, at least on linux and windows, I don't have a

gs -sDEVICE=pdfwrite -dNOPAUSE -dBATCH -dSAFER \
        -dFirstPage=17 -dLastPage=18 \
        -sOutputFile=outfile.pdf infile.pdf

It can also reduce the file size by decreasing the dpi, upping 
compression, for instance with:

   -dPDFSETTINGS=/ebook
