Any way to Filter Pages in Acrobat Pro?

I work with construction drawings and the organization of the drawings is not always conducive to reading them easily.  I imagine that if I were able to filter the file to show only selected pages (drawings), then I could create and name filters to allow me to page through the reduced set of drawings.  A typical range of drawings is about 100 to 500, and there are legends, details, separated construction disciplines per area, notes pages, etc, that make working with a file tedious and wasteful.  Please advise.

This might be possible by converting all the pages to Template objects, which in turn can be shown or hidden based on certain criteria, but it would require a complex set of custom-made scripts to be developed.

If you're interested in hiring someone with a lot of experience in this field that could create these scripts for you (for a fee, of course), feel free to contact me via try6767 at gmail.com to discuss it further.

I'm thinking this should be a feature. I would use it a lot but wouldn't think that the method you mentioned would be feasible. Thanks though.
