Can I edit anything in a pdf using Acrobat XI Pro?

Can I edit anything in a pdf using Acrobat XI Pro?

And the degree of effective editing may be an issue. Editing is not a recommended task in Acrobat, but instead edit in the original doc and recreate the PDF.

  • How can I edit large amount of data using Acrobat X Pro

    Hello all,
    I need to edit a catalog that contains large amount of data - mainly the product price. Currently I can only export the document into excel file and then paste the new price onto the catalog using Acrobat X Pro one by one, which is extremely time-consuming. I am sure there's a better way to make this faster while keeping the accuracy of the data. Thanks a lot in advance if any one's able to help! 

    Hi Chauhan,
    Yes I am able to edit text/image via tool box, but the thing is the catalog contains more than 20,000 price data and all I can do is deleteing the orginal price info from catalog and replace it with the revised data from excel. Repeating this process over 20,000 times would be a waste of time and manpower... Not sure if I make my situation clear enough? Pls just ask away, I really hope to sort it out, Thanks! 

  • When I print to PDF using Acrobat 11 Pro from any application the acrobat Reader does not launch automatically. Associations are correct. Thx for your help,  Bruce

    When I print to PDF using Acrobat 11 Pro from any application the acrobat Reader does not launch automatically. Associations are correct. Happens from Chrome, IE, Word, Excel, Powerpoint. Previously had deskPDF installed but uninstalled correctly. Can't find a preference setting for the auto launch. Thx for your help,  Bruce

    A simple way is to flatten the form fields, which converts the field appearances to regular page contents. You can do this with JavaScript or PDF Optimizer (Advanced > PDF Optimizer > Discard Objects > Flatten form fields). A very nice script that adds a custom menu item can be found here: http://www.uvsar.com/projects/acrobat/flattener/

  • Reducing size of a PDF using Acrobat 9 Pro

    Hello, I want to reduce the file size of a large number of pdfs which will be available for download on a website I'm building. These pdfs were created a few years ago and in most cases the fonts were converted to outlines. I want to reduce the size of the pdfs using Acrobat 9 Pro. I tried one and the size went from 2.3 Mb down to 156 Kb when I saved as an Acrobat 7. Will these be able to be viewed by anyone using Acrobat Reader. The end users will only be viewing and reading the pdfs. Thanks in advance for any responses.

    If you are familar with the PDF Optimizer and how to go to it, open PDF Optimizer.
    First images for a website should never be more than 150dpi.
    Go to images and set, for DPI  150  for color images Grayscale and Monochrome.
    Next open fonts in optimizer and look for duplicate fonts.
    example:
    Ariel
    Ariel Bold
    Ariel Bold
    Ariel Italic
    Courier New Bold
    remove the duplicate Ariel Bold.
    Many times there are 5-10 instances or more of the same Font/Font style.
    Remove all duplicates.
    Save as a new file you never want to save over your original in case what you end up with doesn't turn out.

  • Cannot convert webpages to pdf using Acrobat X Pro with IE9 and Windows 7, worked fine until a few m

    Cannot convert webpages to pdf using Acrobat X Pro with IE9 and Windows 7, worked fine until a few months and updates ago

    I tried your suggestion, not knowing that the direct pdf printer would also "save as" PDF, but when I try your suggestion and use the Adobe PDF printer that is a direct creation of the PDF from the browser (IE9), instead of the "black out" areas I get when I use the "Convert to" button, I get missing blocks of the resulting PDF, and only get the first 1/4 to 1/3 of the webpage.
    Just to clarify, when I said I print the webpage and then scan, that is a work around I have to do if I need a scanned version of the way a webpage appears on a particular date and time, instead of the one step process I used to be able to do when Adobe Acrobat would actually convert the webpage to a pdf without blackout areas or, if I try your suggestion, blank spots with a partial webpage. But the idea was one I had not thought of and I appreciated the thought.
    Yes, Acrobat was updated, and is updated, and was working fine until a few months ago, Win 7 and Office 32 bit versions, Office 2010

  • Printing to PDF using Acrobat X Pro - Cannot figure it out!

    I do not have the option to print to pdf and cannot figure out how to perform this function.  Following the user guides there should be an option under file > Print > advanced > print to pdf
    However under the advanced options i do not have the option "print to pdf"
    Furthermore, if i scroll through my printer options this is also not available.
    Please help!

    I tied to print to pdf within Acrobat 10 Pro yesterday trying to solve a printing problem.  It seemed that the application would not print to pdf but required me instead to "save as" pdf to create another pdf copy.

  • How can I export from Excel to pdf using Acrobat Std to achieve uniform page size throughout the whole pdf document?

    After exporting the whole workbook to a single pdf file, page sizes are inconsistent. When viewing the document in full screen, some pages show up as 25% zoomed, others as 34%.  I could re-print the exported pdf file to pdf in Acrobat Std, and that way I could get the same page size throughout the document, but then I loose my bookmarks, which I don't want.
    I have already set the page size to A4 in Excel, but that's not where my problem lies. any help, hint is appreciated.

    A good place to start is Karl Heinz Kremer's blog, where he has a few examples:

  • No longer able to save to a .PDF using Acrobat 8 Pro and any CS3 program

    I spent several hours on phone with Apple and Adobe today-It seems that Snow Leopard and Anything below Acrobat Pro 9 and InD 4 are no longer compatible for exporting, printing or saving as a .PDF.  Using Acr. Pro 8 and InD CS 3  Anyone find a fix as yet?  I am running Snow Leopard 10.6.1.
    I am a MAC user for less than 2 years.  Do I have to update Adobe Suite every time it upgrades?  Very financially draining, as I am not a Graphic Artist.
    Apple Tech-always wonderful-but unable to help sent me this : http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/509/cpsid_50981.html
    .PDF printer continues to work very well on all programs not ADOBE.
    Right now my only work around is to send my InD file to a friend who had InD CS4 and ask him to save to PDF for me and sent back file!
    Any help is appreciated.
    Thanks

    PS_Adobe wants me to Pay $39 to speak with a Tech support agent-This is already a documented issue.  Not a "my MAC" issue.  I find this disturbing.

    There is no necessity to upgrade your copy of Creative Suite every two years.
    However, apparently you chose to upgrade your operating system version. Was there any necessity of doing that, especially doing so very quickly after it was released? For better or worse, Apple does not regard ongoing application compatibility as a requirement for their new OS releases. Thus, if you upgrade versions of MacOS, be prepared to (1) upgrade your applications as well and (2) possibly endure a period of time in which the applications don't work under the new OS version until the application vendor can re-jigger their code to deal with the upwards-incompatible OS changes.
    These issues are not confined to Adobe applications, but also affect Microsoft Office and any significantly complex applications that are provided directly by Apple themselves. There is nothing we at Adobe can do about this and we like this situation no more than you do.
    This is not the first time these problems of upward-incompatible OS releases have plagued users and application vendors. It took Apple until 10.5.6 to get some level of stability in the 10.5.x (Leopard) OS release so that it was reasonably usable with most third party applications, drivers, etc.
    I suggest you also vent to St. Steve (the Infallible) of Cupertino!

  • OBIEE 11.1.1.6.2 BP1 not formatting properly to PDF using Acrobat 9 Pro

    We have upgraded to OBIEE 11.1.1.6.2 BP1 and are using Adobe Acrobat 9 Pro. With Version 10 I was able to format reports that, when printed to PDF, maintained the report format such as repeating the column headings, font style and size, number of rows per page and column width. With this new version the only thing I can control appears to be the column width. No other format styles are recognized. I've tried custom CSS Style settings as well setting everything individually but to no avail. Any thoughts?

  • Will an Excel file retain formatted cells as a PDF using Acrobat XI Pro?

    Can Acrobat XI Pro create a form that will retain Excel formatted cells for filling in?
    Also, can it create a fillable cell that accepts an actual written signature?

    You will need to set the form in the PDF.
    Facsimile signatures are acceptable for legal purposes. You need to use a digital certificate that 3rd parties can verify but they maybe able to contain a signature image.

  • 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.
