Acrobat 8 standard - Removing pictures from PDF files

I hope this is an easy one to answer but I'm having troubles removing pictures from a PDF file and I need some help, can anyone answer please?

If standard has the Object touchup tool, you can select them and then delete them. I suspect that this may have the same problem as the redact tool as mentioned by graffiti.

Users w/least privileges in Acrobat Standard can't create PDF files. Could this be security setting?

Trying to find out where Acrobat stores its temp files while creating/printing a new PDF and if it is possible to tell the program to use another location. My guess, and I could definitely be wrong, is that our Sys Admins have locked users from writing into this temp folder. Additionally security audit logs are filled quickly when users attempt to cut and paste from Acrobat. Any information would be greatly appreciated.

First of all, you should ask your sys admin to not lock this folder. This
can cause a lot of problems with many applications.
The temp folder used by Acrobat is actually not the Windows temp folder,
though, but an internal one, which can be found by executing this code in
the JS console in Acrobat:
app.getPath("user", "temp")
In my case (Acrobat XI Pro on Windows 7), it is:
/C/Users//AppData/Local/Temp/Adobe/Acrobat/11.0
It is possible, though, that applications like Distiller still use the
Windows temp folder for some other tasks.

How to copy and paste a table and pictures from pdf files to word using MacBook pro 10.5.8

Hi Guys,
I want to copy tables out of a PDF document onto a word document. I only get the text and not the table when I copy and paste. I would also like to know how I can do the same with pictures or diagrams in PDF to word.
Regards,
Craig

You can take picture of anyhting from any document using Command + Shift + 4. Hold all three at the same time and your mouse will turn into a little plus sign where you can then drag across anything you'd like to take picture of it. The picture will be placed on your desktop.
See if that works for you.

How can i remove password from pdf file that i lost password to

i have 2 pdf's that are atleast 6 months old i need to check information in i dont ever remember putting a password on them but i cant gain access to them...any ways i can remove these password?

Adobe Reader can't remove passwords at all. Adobe Acrobat can, but only if you know what the password is.

Using Acrobat X and creating a PDF File from EXCEL 2010, I notice that the Pagination restarts at 1 for each Worksheet included in the PDF.

I use Acrobat X Standard and created a PDF file from two or more worksheets using EXCEL 2010.
The resulting PDF file restarts the PAGE # (In header/footer settings of Excel) at 1 for each worksheet.
However, a colleague of mine who has Acrobat X Pro version, using EXCEL 2010 and same exact file does the same task, he gets a file that starts at page 1 and second worksheet continues the page # from the last page of the First worksheet.
We both are using the ACROBAT menu (not the print to Adobe printer) to create the file so that we can get Bookmarks included in the resulting file for each worksheet.
We cannot figure out any option in Acrobat's preferences that controls the pagination on either of these versions of Acrobat.
So is this just a feature that works one way in Standard version and another way in the Pro version, and the user has no control over it?

This is so sad. I read your comments and I said, "Huh?" Haha!
I tried the indexed color option and it did make the final file smaller. Around 600KB. But there's probably another way to make it even smaller like the gazillion-paged pdf file that I mentioned that was only about 300KB.
And by saying a layout program, does that mean like Adobe InDesign? Does that mean that I should just make my graphics in Photoshop and then import using another program and finish the file there?
What other layout programs can I use?
Thank you so much!

Is there any way I can view / remove pictures from Camera Roll on the iPhone, on a Mac, without actually importing the files?

Is there any way I can view / remove pictures from Camera Roll on the iPhone, on a Mac, without actually importing the files? I just want to view / delete files without importing them.
For instance I have 1200 photos on my iPhone Camera Roll. Some of these are shots, that I've taken multiple times, some good, some bad. I just want to clean up my Camera Roll, but going through the pictures on the iPhone's small screen is tedious. I'd much rather look at the camera roll's photo's on my Mac, and then decide which files I'd like to keep, and which to delete.
I don't want to import the files, as when I import the files, and delete them from Camera Roll, now the Photo's are not on my phone, and the only way to get them back on my Phone is to Import them back in using iTunes, and then they go into the Picture Library and not the Camera Roll.
In the same way as I can view Pics from my digital camera's SD card on a Mac without having to actually copy them to my computer, is there any app out there that will let me view my iPhone pics without importing them.

The short answer is yes.
Connect your iPhone to your computer.
Open Image Capture application.
Click on the 4 little squares at bottom to view them as photos, not a list.
Select the photos them click the No Entry icon at bottom to delete.

How to create ICon/Cursor from pdf files

     I was able to create ICon from jpg file without problem but I couldn't create ICon from pdf files.
Here my code:
var myDoc = app.newDoc();
myDoc.importIcon("myIcon"); // it worked when I chose a jpeg image, but it didn't
//when chose a pdf file.
icon = myDoc.getIcon("myIcon");
oIcon = util.iconStreamFromIcon(icon);
myDoc.closeDoc(true);
app.addToolButton({
               cName: "myButtoon",
               oIcon: oIcon,
               cExec: "app.alert('Someone pressed me!')",
               cTooltext: "Push Me!",
               cEnable: true,
               nPos: 4
   //app.removeToolButton("myButtoon");
My goal is to create buttons which have icons from a pdf file (stamp) and when user click on these buttons, the cursors become the icon . And then, when user click on the document, the iCon will be showed in the document. The point is: is there anyway to create icons/cursors/stamps from one pdf file. Because the stamp is changeable, when user changes the color/shape of the pdf file, the icons/cursors/stamps will automatically change
What kind of pdf format do I have to use?
I used the sample "SignHere.pdf" in stamps folder of Acrobat but it didn't work.
Thanks.

The SDK has all the information - but certainly there are only samples for those common actions that users have been doing for years. Most developers don't recreate stuff already present in the application - such as the Stamp plugin - so we don't have samples of such things.
But all the pieces you need are present in the SDK - it's just necessary obvious. You will need to learn about the details of how the plugin APIs work to create the toolbars and toolbuttons, and then how to handle cursors. You will then need to learn about PDF details in order to be able to take an existing PDF, potentially modify it (eg. Change the color(s)) and then place it onto another PDF.
The methods you listed are from JavaScript - there are alternative methods for plugins, such as the AVConversion APIs.

After removing adobe 7 .pdf file association is not pointing to 8 reader

I have about 300 pc's with adobe 7 standard installed. we are removing it and moving everyone to reader 8 due to the recent virus problems. When i run a scripted uninstall "msiexec /x {AC76BA86-1033-0000-BA7E-100000000002} /qn" it removes the standard edition but the .pdf files are not redirected to adobe reader 8 which was already installed. i have found that the easy fix is to just open the 8 reader once and the association is created however with so many machines (all xp) i want to be able to just push a .reg to fix them all in one sweep. any one know what key i need to change?

1. I assume you have some PDF documents you have been keeping a long time. Look at their modification date. Is it what you'd expect (years ago) or is it all the same, recent?
2. Has a TXT file appeared in the same folder as the PDFs?

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.

Editing text from pdf file

how to edit text from pdf file?

Adobe Reader does not allow editing the text of a PDF document. You will need to get Acrobat on your Windows or Mac to do that.

Changing the setting from PDF file to a JPEG file.

Is there a way I can change the scan setting on my printer. It is a HP Deskjet F4480. I want to change the setting from PDF file to a JPEG file. I want to scan them so I can see them on my screen saver.

This has nothing to do with Acrobat. See the documentation for the scanner software that came with your scanner.

Converting pictures into PDF files

How do I convert pictures into PDF files, is this possible?

If you want to use acrobat reader, you have to pay for it.
So, I use other free or cheap apps to do so =>
* powerpdf
* dragonprinter (draakprinter in dutch)
* writepdf
* scanapp (to convert parts of a picture)
I even think that almost every scan-app can convert pictures into pdf's.

         Is it possible to extract the images in a page from pdf file.

    Thanks in advance,
    abu

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).
