I have a collection like this:
{
\"_id\" : ObjectId(\"51f4ad560364f5490ccebe26\"),
\"fiTpcs\" : [
\"uuid1\",
\"uuid2\",
\"uuid3\",
\"uuid4\",
I may not understand your question in full depth, but seems like $slice is the droid your are looking for:
> db.page.find()
{ "_id" : ObjectId("51f4ad560364f5490ccebe26"), "fiTpcs" : [ "uuid1", "uuid2", "uuid3", "uuid4", "uuid5" ], "fiTpcsCnt" : 2 }
> db.page.find({}, {"fiTpcs" : {$slice : 3}})
{ "_id" : ObjectId("51f4ad560364f5490ccebe26"), "fiTpcs" : [ "uuid1", "uuid2", "uuid3" ], "fiTpcsCnt" : 2 }
> db.page.find({}, {"fiTpcs" : {$slice : [1,3]}})
{ "_id" : ObjectId("51f4ad560364f5490ccebe26"), "fiTpcs" : [ "uuid2", "uuid3", "uuid4" ], "fiTpcsCnt" : 2 }
