How to use a subset of a beamer presentation?
I am trying to take the PDF output of a beamer presentation and take only a subset of the slides, and create a PDF file out of them (I can't recompile the beamer presentation with the relevant slides, since they are annotated).
When I use:
documentclass{article}
usepackage{pdfpages}
begin{document}
includepdf[pages=1-15]{presentation.pdf}
end{document}
The pages are enlarged, and the pdf slides are not the usual size of a beamer presentation slide.
If I change document class to beamer, all pages appear blank.
How can I fix that?

You can just use a tool to extract the pages you want or remove the ones you don't directly from the PDF. Preview in Mac OS X lets you do that. So does pdftk.

If you know how big your presentation slides are do
documentclass{article}
usepackage[paperheight=197mm,paperwidth=254mm]{geometry}
usepackage{pdfpages}
begin{document}
includepdf[pages=1-15]{presentation.pdf}
end{document}
If you use beamer documentclass, you don't even have to know the size of the slides, just exchange the default white background with a transparent one to make the slides visible:
documentclass{beamer}
usepackage{pdfpages}
setbeamercolor{background canvas}{bg=}
begin{document}
includepdf[pages=1-15]{presentation.pdf}
end{document}

For testing purposes, said that the original presentation is xxx.pdf generated from:
documentclass{beamer}
usepackage{lipsum}
title{Non Source Presentation}
author{Someone}
usetheme{Berkeley}
begin{document}
maketitle
section{Lore} begin{frame}{Lore ipsum} lipsum[1] end{frame}
section{Ipsum} begin{frame}{Nam dui ligula} lipsum[2] end{frame}
section{Dolor} begin{frame}{Nulla malesada} lipsum[3] end{frame}
end{document}
Then, in your new presentation, to include only the slides 1 and 4 from xxx.pdf, you can simply insert each PDF page as images:
documentclass{beamer}
setbeamersize{text margin left=0pt,text margin right=0pt}
begin{document}
frame{includegraphics[page=1,width=textwidth]{xxx.pdf}}
frame{includegraphics[page=4,width=textwidth]{xxx.pdf}}
end{document}
