How do I copy an image from pdf file using preview?

I've done this before from the same pdf file but can't remember how I did it.  Does anyone know?

I tried that and heard the camera shutter go off now how do I retrieve the image?  Where is it on my computer?
Where did you check?
Screen shots are suppose to be saved on your desktop.  See KB Article:  http://support.apple.com/kb/PH11229
If that is not where there are going, do a manual search.  Check inside your Download folder for starters.

    i would like to know why the application has this elay i really want to avoid it
    because every tome i want to oppen an image there is a risk it would take a minnute or two

    In the finder right click on the iPhoto library and show package contents, find the folder named import (or importing) and drag it to the desk top. Do NOT make any other changes of any sort. Launch iPhoto and you will Be fine. Open the import(ing) folder and if there are any photos in it you need import them to iPhoto then trash the imoort(ing) folder.

  • Editing Image From PDF File To Use in AI Document

    Hello,
    I am a beginner user of AI and am having trouble with editing certain images from PDF files on Illustrator. I'm not even sure what I'm trying to do can be done on Illustrator or requires Photoshop.
    A) Here is the first example (Note that this is only similar to the type of image I am talking about. It is not the exact one as I don't have access to it right now):
    So let's say here are the things I want to do. (1) Extract it from the PDF file, (2) transfer it to my AI document without blurriness, (3) change the white background of the image to another color (eg. grey), (4) and embolden the lines presently in the image. If you can advise what's the way to perform these tasks?
    I have used image trace at times but if the photo is too light, portions of it will vanish. The portions that do remain become way too bold. It would be great if there was a way I could make most if not each components of the image controllable/movable. Is it possible?
    Also, what if I want to erase some of the text on the image? I have tried using the eraser tool but it does not erase on images.
    B) How would I go about removing the background of a photo like this and replacing it with a color?
    Please keep in mind that I am a complete neophyte when it comes to using Illustrator, Photoshop etc so take this into consideration when explaining. Thanks in advance

    Trent,
    To make a clear and clean drawing like A), it is better to use the image as a locked template and recreate with the native tools; most things can be made with the Rectangle Tool and the Ellipse Tool, some with the Line Segment Tool or the Pen Tool; and you can use different Window>Pathfider operations.
    It is probably easier to get rid of the surroundings in B) using Photoshop where you can erase colours within a range; the grass seen through the windows may be treated by itself, and you may wish to keep the shadow.

    PDF files don't have one resolution, but may have none or many different resolutions, one per image. You can check the maximum/minimum resoluion with preflight in Acrobat Pro, but not in Adobe Reader.

  • How do I copy an image from one Keynote presentation to another one?

    I have a previously saved presentation on Keynote in iCloud. I created it from my desktop at work. Some of the images I used for the presentation I want to use again in another presentation, onlh this time I am working off my laptop and don't have the same access to those images. Is it possible to copy/paste images from one Keynote presentation into another? I can't even seem to click on the image and save it.
    Any suggestions?

    Clicking and dragging does not work.
    Click on the image and Copy and Paste
    or
    Inspector > Metrics > File Info > click on the icon of the file and drag it to your desktop
    You can then drag that file back in wherever you want.

  • How to extract the image from pdf file

         Hai friends........
             Is it possible to extract the images in a page from pdf file.
             If so. please share with me.......

    In later versions of Acrobat you can select an Image with the Select tool, then right-hand click for Save options.
    ------------->
    It helps if you quote your exact version of Adobe Acrobat/Reader - choose [Help, About...] to find this.
    Also useful: Version numbers of other software (e.g. Word) if relevant. Age of computer and amount of memory (RAM) available (r/h cllcking on 'My Computer' and choosing Properties gives you this, plus processor speed).

  • How can i create a hyperlink annotation on a pdf file using preview? the tool is removed from the toolbar

    It seems that the tool to create an hyperlink on a pdf file is removed from the toolbar!

    In order to initiate printing by clicking a button, the button has to have either an "execute menu item" type action or use the "print" JavaScript method. As you guessed, the former won't work since there are no menu items to execute, and the latter can only work if the particular PDF viewer you're using supports it. I'm not aware of any that do on iOS.
    The button doesn't appear because you're probably opening it in the default PDF viewer, which doesn't support forms at all. If you were to open the form in Adobe Reader, you'd see the button but it wouldn't work.

  • How to read from pdf file using VB

    I have a PDF file which contains three columns, emp no, designation, contact_info. I have 10 rows in that pdf file. I want to read row by row from the pdf file and write into another text file(tab delimited) using VB.
    Could you please help me reading the pdf file?
    Thanks,
    Arindam

    Without reading it in detail, this seems to be automating a save as text function in Acrobat. This will not give you any position information.
    If you want position information without writing a plug-in, you need to use the getPageNthWord and getPageNthWordQuads methods in JavaScript.
    If you have not already done so, you will need to download the Acrobat SDK which has the documentation you need.
    Writing in C# makes even very simple things complicated; if you have a choice, consider VB.

  • How can I embed metadata in a pdf file using Acrobat XI Pro?

    Hi, everyone!
    I need some info how I can put things like key words, description of the file and the like permanently in the file to let it 'travel' in the file everywhere, no matter what the OS is. I guess I should use Properties 'path' but it resembles Windows system properties, so I'm not sure. Moreover, there's so little about it in manuals....
    Once I've done with it, can it be read just by Adobe Reader?
    And one important thing more: is there any inner search engine inside Acrobat XI to search the files by key words and other similar metadata criteria or I'm solely dependant on the OS search function?

    Thanks for the link - it sounds highly specialised, but simple experiments of opening a Properties Windows and putting some description notes and author or key word is readable by Acrobat reader or the system search engine so maybe it's not really complicated - mind you, I don't mean right-clicking on the file where options are poor and probably thode of the OS but Preferences edition after opening the document in Acrobat XI Pro - I hope this one is of Adobe and maybe I won't need Bridge to read it I know in the suggested thread it's a problem of graphics metadata within the pdf file....
