extract range of pages (1-56) (57-80) [split]:

pdftk 03.pdf cat 1-56 output 03a.pdf

pdftk 03.pdf cat 57-80 output 03c.pdf

Insert page:

pdftk A=orig.pdf B=pag.187.pdf cat A1-186 B A187-end output final.pdf

pdftk 03b_.pdf cat 1-endeast output 03b.pdf

rotate 90°:

pdftk in.pdf rotate 1-endleft output out.pdf
