Thanks Adrian and Ron. Sorry, I was not clear. What I'm trying to achieve was to dump the schema quickly and be able to restore a single or subset of objects from the dump. As far as I understand, the only way of achieving that is to use the custom format and the -j option. Is that correct? Are there any other alternatives?
Thanks.

Why do you need to use "--format=custom" instead of "--format=plain"?
For example:
$ pg_dump --format=plain --schema-only --schema=A
