Add page border/keyline using Acrobat 8?

Hello,
Does anyone know if there's a way to add a keyline or page border to a PDF document? I have about 100 PDFs I've created for a client and now they've come back asking to have keylines added to every page in every PDF.
Other than manually adding keylines to all these documents and then creating new PDFs, I'm unsure of if I have any other solutions?
I'm using (unfortunately) QuarkXPress 6.5 (ugh, client required it) as well as Acrobat Pro 8 & Pitstop Pro (within Acrobat 8 ).
Thanks,
Kristin.

couldn't you make any Background created at 1% opacity? that way you couldn't see the background for all intents and purposes.
[although I've found adding a background then flattening the transparency created (I have to use on a file I use on a website to prevent Google from picking up email addresses) increases the file size from 300K to 6.5 MB.]

  • Error converting web page to PDF using Acrobat 8 IE 9 on Vista

    I am getting the following errow when I try converting web page to PDF using Acrobat 8 on IE 9 on Vista.  This worked previously but it appears that a recent update to Acrobat caused issues with this functionality.  This happened once before and after some troubleshooting the technician wasable to get the functionality working again.  The Adobe printer shows up with "Error" however I can still create PDFs from outlook.

  • Is there any way I can convert web pages to PDF using Acrobat X Pro in Explorer from Office 2013?

    I get the error message "Could not access Acrobat's web capture facility.  Acrobat may be busy or waiting for input."  I have Win 8 OS also. Is there any way to convert?

    I doubt that PDF Maker of AA X will work in OFFICE 2013. You should be able to print to the Adobe PDF printer, though I am not sure how AA X works in Win8, another potential problem.
    For a web site, you should be able to open the web site directly in AA X.

  • I am using CC adobe Acrobat to combine multiple pdfs and add page numbers. Mac users can no longer read the page numbers but pc users can.

    I am using CC adobe Acrobat to combine multiple pdfs and add page numbers. As of about 2 weeks ago the mac users can no longer read the page numbers they get a font error message and see only -- where the page information should be. The pc users do not have this same problem. When I replace our regular font (URW Grotesk) with a system font (Verdana) everyone is able to read the page numbers. This is a new issues, I have been creating these documents in the same way for years without a problem. I have been on hold and on and off calls for the last two hours, I keep getting hung up on once I find someone in adobe support to talk to!

    Hi KnoopL,
    Are the Mac users using Preview to view the pdfs or Adobe Reader?
    Regards,

  • I have Acrobat XI and am trying to add pages to a pdf. Tutorials instruct to use Tools, Options or Page Thumbnail to get to a drop down command of Insert Page, does not appear as my choices.

    I have Acrobat XI and am trying to add pages to a pdf. Tutorials instruct me to use Tools, Options or Page Thumbnail to get to a drop down command of Insert Page, but I have few choices in any of those places and Insert Page is not any of them.

    What do you see, then?

  • Can I create a page border using Adobe Acrobat Pro 9?

    I'm making a certificate of completion and would like to create a page border.  Is there any way to do this is Adobe Acrobat Pro 9?

    If what you want to do is scale a page down to a smaller size, Acrobat doesn't do that, not directly anyway. I think there are plugins for Acrobat that can do this.
    if you're desperate and/or don't want to go to that expense, there is a hack available in Acrobat that can get you there. If you've added other interactive elements (links, bookmarks, etc.), you'd have to recreate them. Post again, preferably in a new topic (since it doesn't apply to this one), for more info.

  • How do I add pages to a PDF in the iPad version of Acrobat reader

    How do I add pages to a PDF in the iPad version of Acrobat reader

    You don't.
    Adobe Reader is a reader application. You can't use it to do editing.
    If you have Adobe Acrobat on Mac or Windows, you can add pages.

  • How can I add page numbers using Adobe Reader?

    I am trying to add page numbers to my document only using Adobe Reader.  Is that possible?  Or do I need to use Adobe Acrobat?

    The free Reader can do very little more than reading (opening) PDF files. I'd use Acrobat.

  • Acrobat XI Pro - can't add pages :(

    I was using Acrobat 9 Pro - I could add pages easily. With XI - it hangs or crashes just before the screen "add pages before or after" - it's driving me mad - might uninstall it and go back to 9 which was quite stable. Lots of other new features/layouts I hate. Especially the small space available for tools you use regularly

    You will need to get LiveCycle Designer, which is now a separate product.
    XFA forms created with LiveCycle Designer can be either static or dynamic. Static ones are very similar to forms created in Acrobat (AcroForms) in their behavior. Dynamic forms can have auto-expnding text fields, rows added to and removed from tables, entire sections generated and removed at run time, and a number of other dynamic behavior. So which you choose really depends on what your needs are. Many static XFA forms could be created as AcroForms with no loss in functionality. A big downside to XFA forms nowadays is the lack of PDF viewers for mobile devices that support them. AcroForms have always had more support in general.
    JavaScript is used in both XFA and AcroForms, but each has it's own object models. XFA forms also support FormCalc, which isn't a full blown programming language like JavaScript, but it does have a number of useful features.The types of controls are pretty much the same, though an XFA forms support an image field and a good number of 1D barcode types with bar code fields.

  • Cannot get Canon LIDE 220 Scanner to work with Acrobat XI Pro, Acrobat will not let scanner add pages to existing PDFs

    Hi
    I have recently purchased a Canon Scanner LIDE 220 for my new PC which has Windows 8.1 64-bit and ADOBE ACROBAT XI Professional.
    I NEED to be able to open PDF documents and add pages by using the scanner, but the scanner is not being accepted by ACROBAT. I get messages that there is no scanner connected or no driver installed. I have uploaded Canon's latest drivers for the scanner but when I try to get Acrobat to accept the scanner it says the scanner will not accept presets.
    I need some help!!
    Thanks
    Andy White

    Andy,
    Some scanners do not support presets, so when you choose an unsupported scanner from the pop-up menu, a dialog stating "This scanner does not support presets" appears. Have you tried scanning using Custom Scan through File > Create PDF from Scanner > Custom Scan..?
    Thanks

  • I am trying to use Acrobat Pro version XI to crop my PDF but can't find the "PAGES" tools

    I have a 1 page PDF that is 9.5 inches wide with about 1.5 inches of margin.  I want to crop off the extra white space and center the image so that it fits on a normal letter sized page.  However, I can't find any sort of crop or trim command in Acrobat.  When I google cropping a PDF I find references to a crop command that is in some sort of "pages" collection of tools but I don't have any pages menu either.  Is there a way to use Acrobat Pro for cropping ?  How? 
    I also have photoshop and have tried importing and cropping there but when I export the image back to PDF format I find that its 10X the size it started.  Its important for my purposes that the file be small.  

    Well it was installed yesterday and I spent hours trying to find the option  as virtually the first thing I did when I launched it, so I'm quite sure I would have remembered if I changed it.  However it was installed by a push from our corporate software distribution system so maybe that has a way of reconfiguring some options. Why they'd bother is a mystery to me though.  Anyway, good to know, thanks again

    The above was truncated and garbled a bit and I can't figure out how to edit it.  So just to repeat the question a bit more clearly: "I'm using Acrobat XI on Windows.  I want to add my company's logotype as a watermark to a PDF document.  When I add it as a file (jpeg), the logotype is printed on a white square background (because the jpeg is square with a white background of course).  It will be positioned on the PDF document on a light, uniform yellowish color, which I want to show through.

  • I am making a graduation video for my cousin using Final Cut Pro. I have photos layered over videos, and I was wanted to find out how you can add a border around the photos so they stand off of the video. Anyone know what I could do?

    I am making a graduation video for my cousin using Final Cut Pro. I have photos layered over videos, and I was wanted to find out how you can add a border around the photos so they stand off of the video. Anyone know what I could do?

    You would need an image editor to edit the images and add a border to the image first before importing them into Final Cut.
    Cheapest and very good image editor?

  • Hello.  May I ask:  I am using Acrobat 6.0.2, and having trouble formatting a PDF created from multiple (jpeg) files.  Each page is formatted to A4 size, portrait.  But when I create the PDF, each sheet appears as tiny, in the middle of a huge white page.

    Hello.  May I ask:  I am using Acrobat 6.0.2, and having trouble formatting a PDF created from multiple (jpeg) files.  Each page is formatted to A4 size, portrait.  But when I create the PDF, each sheet appears as tiny, in the middle of a huge white page.  I cannot seem to find any controls to adjust this.  Any advice appreciated.

    Thanks CtDave, for the further info.  Unfortunately, those suggestions are not working, which is strange.
    ....Until last week, I used to make multi-page PDFs straight from Photoshop: File > Automate > Make PDF.  One simply choses the files, orders them, and creates a PDF.  (Resolution doesn't matter; 300 DPI is no problem.)  However, my new Photoshop CS5 does not have the option in Automate.
    What I've done, seeing as Acrobat is letting me down, is use Bridge (new to me) to create the PDF.  It worked without a problem, but seems like more work than the old PS method.  I will download a newer version of Acrobat to see if that makes any difference.
    .....Also, thanks Test Screen Name:  I agree with you that jpeg is irrelevant, and that one can make a PDF from Photoshop (Print > Save As - pdf).  But that only works for SINGLE PAGE pdf, not multiple pages as far as I can tell.
    Kind regards,
    Prince Nuada

    I do not think that AA X is compatible with the newest versions of OFFICE and such. Your only choice is to print to the Adobe PDF printer or use the MS plugins to create PDFs.
