I want to pull out specific figures to include in a presentation. Not convert the entire pdf to an image.

Like this fig 9-2:
If you really want to pull a vector graphic like this in a clean way, you can do it with Inkscape (any other vector editing tool capable of handling pdf works as well, but I often use this one):

 * as Inkscape only seems to be able to open a single pdf page, first
extract the page in question (e. g. page 39) with a tool of your liking
 * open page39.pdf in Inkscape
 * with the selection tool, draw a rectangle which covers all elements
   of your figure
 * copy and paste the selection to a new empty drawing
 * save as fig9_2.svg or fig9_2.eps

I will look into Inkscape, I see it in the F22 repo. But what is a svg or eps file? Can they be imported into a Libreoffice presentation? And then Powerpoint?

Thanks
