How do you place a particular page of a PDF in InDesign?
When placing a PDF make sure from the “Place” dialogue that you choose “Show Import Options”, it is located at the lower right of the dialogue. Now that “Show Import Options” has been check when you choose “Open” you are confronted with a new “Place PDF” dialogue that allows you to specify the actual page of the PDF you are wanting to place. Once you choose “Ok” you can place that page in your document.
When relinking you can choose the same “Show Import Options” check box from the relink dialogue to relink to another page in the PDF.
