Bulk convert text to PDF with Acrobat

Hi. When I convert a text file to PDF with Acrobat X Pro the character spacing in the resulting file is incorrect. The columns of numbers which do correctly line up in the text file, do not line up correctly in the PDF file. I adjust the settings for the conversion in the CREATE PDF FROM WEB PAGE box and I choose a fixed-width font. If I use Adobe PDF Converter (the printer driver) the result is perfect. If I open the text file with Microsoft Word and then convert it to PDF with PDFMaker, it is also perfect. I want to use Acrobat so that I can bulk convert my 300 text files to PDF. Can you please help as I have tried everything? Thank you. Paul Pontikis (Deakin University)

Thank you for responding LoriAUC. I have 300 (*.txt) files that I only ever open with Notepad. I don't every open them in a web browser. I want to bulk convert them to PDF. The orientation of the resulting PDFs must be landscape. It appears that the only way to select LANDSCAPE in Acrobat is to adjust the settings in the CREATE PDF FROM WEB PAGE box. It seems that Acrobat uses its HTML Conversion Engine to convert text files to PDF. When I do this and then bulk convert them using Bulk Convert Files to PDF, the orientation is correct, that is, landscape instead of the default portrait setting, however the character spacing is imprecise and the columns of data are wavy.

Convert text in PDF to pure black

Hi all,
I have spent hours researching this with little to show for it, so I thought it's time to ask for help.
I am dealing with a situation where I need a batch solution to change the color of all the (vector) text in a PDF document to pure black.
From my research, I understand that:
1) It is not possible to do this in JS.
2) If I simply wanted to change the color of text from color to grayscale, I can use "Convert Colors" under Print Production to change the color space.
3) I can select the "edit text & images" command, select all objects in the page, and change the font color to black. But this method requires repeating the same for every page, and is not practicable for PDFs with many pages.
I have experimented using different conversion profiles (Gray Gamma, Dot Gain), but in all cases, I have been unable to change the color of text to black. It remains at gray, or is changed into a different shade of gray.
My question here is this:
When I select an object and go to the color tab of the Object Properties box, I see "Black & White" as one of the color spaces that I can choose to convert to in the drop down list. See screenshot immediately below:
If I choose "Black & White", and click the "Convert Colors" button, the text gets converted to pure black. But this method only works object by object.
But under the "Convert Colors" in "Print Production", the "Black & White" option which is available earlier is not available. See screenshot immediately below:
Why is that the case and what can I do if I want to batch convert all the text in my PDF doc to the "Black & White" color space so as to change the color of the text to pure black?
Thanks.
Best,
Jay

Hi Jay ,
Which version of Acrobat are you using?
If it is one of the old versions ,try updating it the latest one and see if that helps.
Launch Acrobat>Navigate to Help>Check for updates.
The second image that you have sent ,there is an option as "preserve black" in the same dialog box.Check mark that option and see if it helps.
Let us know how it goes.
Regards
Sukrit Dhingra

Convert text in PDF to editable field in Reader

Hi,
Is there a way in Acrobat Pro to convert text in the PDF to an editable field so that someone opening the PDF in Reader would be able to amend the text. Or do you actually have to make the text in Acrobat?
Thanks for any help,
Jackie

It can probably be achieved with a script, but if you only need to do it once, I think doing it manually is the best way to go.

Copying text from pdf with embedded font

I have tried everything to copy and paste text from pdf into word. I think because it has embedded text it comes over as garbled. I have downloaded the font, tried to open it in several other aps, viewed it as html -- to copy and paste ...
anyone have a trick that they can share with me before I poke my eyes out

Convert rtf to pdf with good font and sharp images

I can convert rtf to pdf in Microsoft Word (2004) using the Print function but the resulting document doesn't maintain the same font and the images look a bit hinky as a result.
I tried to convert from rtf to pdf in Acrobat 9 but it sez unsupported file type.
I just want a really clean conversion that keeps the images sharp and the fonts looking good. Am I out of luck?

Convert PS to PDF with Preview

I've been using Preview forever to open PS files. Recently, when I try to open the PS file, I get a file error following the converting PS to PDF bubble. There is nothing wrong with the PS file (can open with ColorSync or GIMP). Any idea on a fix?
Cliff

By a PS file, I assume you mean Photoshop file. I also use Preview to open my PS files.
Try converting the PS file to a PDF in Photoshop.
In PS choose File > Save As... then choose PDF from the settings list.

Convert jpg to pdf with proper bounding box for LaTeX

Hi,
does anybody know how I can use Acrobat 8 Professional on my Mac to convert a jpg into a pdf that with a proper bounding box for LaTeX?
When I import the jpg and save it as a pdf, then LaTeX cannot determine the correct size, and, therefore, the picture appears way too big in LaTeX's output.
The LaTeX Error message is "Cannot determine size of graphic in myPic.pdf (no BoundingBox)"
On my Mac I don't even know how to check the size of the bounding box.
Thanks for your suggestions!
Kurt

Hi - thanks for all the answers.
I have tried to use Graphics Converter but it has way too many options, and if I just use the default one's, the pdf quality is changed, so black does not appear as black anymore but slightly grey. And since Graphics Converter changed the pdf unexpectedly, I don't want to risk that it changes something else that I might miss now and only realize when the manuscript is in print.
Currently, I cannot check if the correct Bounding Box would be set using Graphics Converter: My LaTeX implementation shows the pdf in the correct size, even without bounding box, but the LaTeX implementation of the journal I am submitting the graphics to does not, and since I already submitted the manuscript, I cannot check anymore. Using GhostView on a PC would help, but on a Mac I don't get GhostScript to do that.
I cannot use jpg's directly, as the journal does not support jpg's.
The figures were prepared using photoshop, so maybe I try exporting them directly from there, but as far as I remember, this did not set the bounding box correctly either. But since I am not sure I need to test it again.
Is there a way to view the bounding box?
I thought that the bounding box just gives the dimensions in pixels, so does the actual size really matter?
Thanks a lot.
Kurt

I have a form that i need to convert to a pdf with fields

i am working on a form that will be used for registration. I created it in Publisher then saved it as a jpeg. In order to be more efficient with collecting information, i need to save this form as a pdf with fields so it can be filled out online and perhaps saved and emailed back to me. Please help!!

I am not sure Publisher was the best approach as there is no conversion from Publisher directly to the PDF format as there is with Word.
You will Acrobat Standard or Professional to create PDF forms. There is a 30 day free trial of Acrobat Professional and after that period you need to either buy a copy of Professional or subscribe tot he cloud product. You could also uninstall the Professional version and buy or subscribe to the Standard version.
Entire books have been written about creating forms with Acrobat.
Once you acquire Acrobat, I would print the Publisher document to the Adobe PDF printer and then use Acrobat to add the form fields.
You are also going to need to review how various computer systems work with PDF forms, which browsers work well with PDF forms, how the older versions or Acrobat/Reader work with forms, and email, and if any mobile device will be used how the different apps work or do not work with PDF forms.

Issues converting .pmd to .pdf with Acrobat 9 Pro

I have tried numerous ways to convert a .pmd file to a .pdf using the Acrobat 9 Pro with no luck. I do not have PageMaker on my computer. Any recommendations?

It has been awhile since Adobe "retired" PageMaker.
It is no longer an Adobe supported application; so Acrobat 9 PDFMaker does not have it listed as a supported application/file format.
The migration path was to InDesign.
As with any application that can be sent to a "printer" via File > Print
If PageMaker is installed, its file can be sent to Adobe Printer for processing by Distiller.
But, again, no PDFMaker.
Be well...
