Acrobat 9 Pro - New User Question

Hi, I just got Acrobat 9 Pro and am loving it! I need help with the text fields. I am trying to get the text to automatically go to the next line when the text reaches the end of the line. Instead the font size gets smaller to make all the words fit on one line. Help! Thanks

If you created the form in WORD, then it is likely just the view of the form in Acrobat, no form fields. If you have form fields, then see if you can edit the form fields at all in Acrobat (select the appropriate form tool and see if you can edit it). I guess I am trying to be sure you are really looking at form fields and if those fields were done in Acrobat or Designer. As Acrobat has been upgraded, they have added some of the automatic conversions of fields from WORD. In the past you had to create the fields in Acrobat or import the form to Designer. I do not know what stage AA9 is at.
Do you know if the form is from Acrobat or Designer? Are you sure you have form fields? If so, what indication do you have that is the case?

Acrobat Pro Extended feature questions

Hi,
I am testing Adobe Acrobat Pro Extended to evaluate usability within the company I work for. During my testing, I have run across some questions about Pro Extended functionality. I would appreciate any information or suggestions you may have regarding these questions. Thanks in advance!
1. Adobe 3D Reviewer in Pro Extended experiences a run time error and exits when attempting to delete a part (subassembly) from the model tree using the "delete" menu option on the right mouse context menu of the model tree item. This occurs in both .u3d files and .pdf files. Is this a known issue, limitation or is there a fix for attempting to delete parts from a model? (perhaps a problem on my installation?)
2. I have used 3D comments on a 3D model and they are very useful since they are "anchored" to particular locations on the part/assembly being commented on. Can the comment text box itself be resized? Can the font size used for the 3D comment be resized? Once created, can 3D comments be edited in either Pro Extended or 3D Reviewer?
3. The model tree in 3D models is useful for viewing/hiding parts of a 3D model. Do the plus signs (+) used to traverse the model tree have an "Expand All" option or must every + sign be clicked to traverse subassemblies (these can be numerous!). This may not be a supported feature. Is there any plan for it?
Thank you again and I appreciate your input.

Hi Jesse,
Here are some answers that should help in your evaluation:
1) i believe you are still using a beta version. this bug has been fixed in the released version. you can find a trial version at the following location:
http://www.adobe.com/products/acrobatproextended/tryout.html
2) yes the 3D comment box can be resized by clicking in the upper left corner and dragging the mouse or moved to a different location by clicking in the lower right corner and dragging the mouse.
yes you can change the size/color of the 3D comment text by going to Edit>Preferences, clicking on Measuring (3D) and changing the settings: Measure Feedback Size, 3D Measuring Line Color
once created, you cannot edit the 3D comment text anymore.
3) there is no Expand All option in Acrobat/Reader.

New user question - superimposing one image on top of another

Hi,
I am a new user to Photoshop having downloaded the trial version of Elements 10 this morning so forgive my very basic question. I have a picture of a sunset and a picture of a ship. How do I place the ship in the sunset please? that is, how do I superimpose the ship on to the sunset background?
Cheers,
Mankie22

You can also try the quick selection tool. The selection tools take some practice to understand them. Changing brush sizes in the option bar may help you with either the selection brush tool or the quick selection tool. You want the selection to include the entire ship, not just the outer edges. You may have had the brush very small and therefore just selected a narrow edge of the ship.
Once you make your selection and paste it over the other layer, you should take a look at how the edges of the ship appear. If they are jagged, you might need to Undo a couple of steps and either fix up the selection ( change brush size, addto/subtract from). Another refinement would be to make sure you still have a selection tool active and then right click within the selection. Choose Refine Edge and you can smooth the edge there - along with other refinements available.
Click on Help in the menu bar and go to the Adobe help site. Type in key words for more info.

Acrobat Pro 9.0 question

How do I install acrobat pro 9.0 on a windows 8 pc. someone sent me instructions earlier but they did not work for some reason.

If this is in reference to http://forums.adobe.com/thread/1308514, the instructions are there. Please follow EVERY STEP, don't skip anything because it seems unnecessary, and if you don't understand, say so. But not here - reply to THAT MESSAGE.

Acrobat Pro Multiple form question

I am creating a form in Acrobat Pro to be distributed and tracked throught the response tracker. The form that I am doing would have 6 sets of the same form fields for different entries into the tracker. Does anyone know how I can do this so each entry is recorded separately in the tracking fields?

One distributed PDF will have only one entry in Tracker. If you want to manage data from Subforms in a PDF form you need to use LiveCycle designer and bind xml or any other database to your form and then you can easily manage the data you want.

Functionality of Adobe Acrobat Pro for Mac questions?

Greetings! After 35 years in the Windows environment, I became the proud owner of a MacBook air last night, and I want to install Adobe Acrobat Pro for Mac on it. I would like to know if the features and functionality of the Mac version are the same as those on the Adobe Acrobat Standard that I have been using in my Windows environment for so many years.
The Windows version gives me everything I need, most importantly the ability to add text as annotations into documents that have been scanned and sent to me as PDFs, fill in forms, create forms, etc.
Additionally, can someone help me with the differences between the subscription version and the full purchase version? Does the subscription version have any problems, is it just as functional as the full purchase version?
Thank you so much all!

If you don't have a physical printer hooked up to your Mac you can still do the Save As Adobe PDF with a "faux" printer setup. Here are the steps to set that up:
1. Go to Apple menu>System Preference>Printers and Scanners
2. Press the plus symbol button "+"
3. In the Add dialog select IP at the top
4. in the Address field put the numbers 127.0.0.1
5. In the Protocol pop-up menu make sure that Line Printer Daemon - LPD is selected

7. In the Name field it will say "127.0.0.1" and you can leave it to that or change it to anything you want.
8. Leave the Location field blank
9. Leave the Use field pop-up menu field at the default which is Generic PostScript Printer.
10. Click the Add button
11. You will get the message:
"Unable to verify the printer on your network.
Unable to connect to '127.0.0.1' due to an error.
Would you still like to create the printer?"
12. Click the Continue button.
13. In the Setting up '127.0.0.1...' dialog click the OK button
14. Open up TextEdit
15. Type some test text (e.g. Test Text)
16. In TextEdit Go to File>Print
17. In the Print dialog, press on the PDF button on the lower Left side of the window.
18. Select Save As Adobe PDF.
19. In the Save As Adobe PDF dialog, select your Adobe PDF Settings and whether or not you want the resulting PDF to open in Adobe Acrobat Pro and then click the Continue button.

New user - question re: disk usage

New to Macs, had it since the 12th April. How can I tell where all my disk space is being eaten up? Of the 160GB I've used around 50GB. I can't for the life of me imagine how. I've copied one camcorder tape on and tried to produce a DVD (I need more time OK!) and also I've copied a couple of gigs worth of digicam images that may be duplicated in both the iPhoto library and the original folder I copied them into - my question, is there anything like Treesize Pro (on the PC) for a Mac? 50 gigs is a lot to fill up and I'd love to know where it's all going. I have emptied the trash.
BTW so far I love this machine!! (thats speaking as a 20+yr dyed-in-the-wool PC user & builder)
TIA

Check Problems from Insufficient RAM and Free Hard Disk Space under Memory Management in Mac OS X. OS X makes generous use of paging or virtual memory which takes up some free hard drive space and the amount depends on activity - number of running applications and the amount of RAM installed, etc.
In addition, check Freeing space on your Mac OS X startup disk under Finding lost disk space at the bottom of the page.

ITunes new user question

im planning to buy an iPod Touch in the coming days and this will be the first time ill be using the iTunes. (ive been using Sonicstage for my Sony mp3 walkman eversince). if i say i have an mp3 file downloaded from a site other than iTunes store would iTunes automatically "recognise" the song? how do i search for the song/album cover/picture so it would appear on my iPod Touch? and can it also recognise "any" downloaded MP4 video?

You shouldn't have any problems - itunes will play mp3 files fine and it's pretty easy to add all your files in.
Before you buy your new ipod, I would advise you to go ahead and download itunes now and start using it. Also you should be aware that quite a few windows users are having problems with accessing the store or are having other installation problems (check the forums for examples). You have to use itunes 7.4 with the new ipods, and a lot of people have gotten the new ipod, updated itunes and then not been able to download new music or videos from the store! But you don't have to buy music through the store if you don't want to.
When you do download itunes, I think the very first time it will ask you if you want it to search your computer for music files. If not, you can manually add folders of music to itunes - for example, if all your music is in your 'my music' folder in itunes go to File>Add folder to library, highlight 'my music' and it will automatically add all your music in. When you download other mp3 files you can use File>add file to add individual songs, or just open them with itunes and it will add them to your library.
Mp3 files don't need any reformatting for itunes; if you have unprotected wma files, like you ripped a CD on windows media player, itunes automatically converts them (I think to aac, which shows up as .m4a). itunes cannot read protected wma files, however. I can't answer your question about videos, but i think itunes could read them - try it and see if it works!
Another thing to be aware of is that music bought from the itunes store is usually in protected aac format, and I don't think you can play that on your sony. Also, when you install itunes it automatically makes itself the default audio and video player unless you uncheck the box during installation - so keep that in mind.
After you get itunes up you can 'sync' all your music onto your ipod; if you have more music than will fit on the ipod you can create playlists and sync all or some playlists on your ipod, so it's up to you what you want to put on it.
also - I think apple's online pages aren't that great for info, but the itunes help is a little better.

New user - questions about email setup and synchronization

Hi,
I'm a not-particularly-techno-savvy new owner of a BlackBerry Curve 8900. My questions are:
1 I seem to only have the option to use a work email account with a BB Enterprise server and not the option to create or add an email addy. How do I resolve this?
2 I've installed the BlackBerry Desktop Manager but when I try to synchronize data from my device - organiser stuff and contacts - I get a message saying there are no applications configured, with subsequent instructions as to how to do this but I then have to choose from a huge list of folders and other stuff and have no idea what to do!
I'm really hoping someone will be kind enough to try and help as I'm floundering dreadfully.
Thanks in advance.
Jan

Jan,
When you install Desktop Manager it gives you the option to setup with an enterprise server or internet email, I can't tell from your post which you have.
However, to pick the applications to sync, assuming you have Desktop Manager 4.7,
open Desktop Manager
Click on Synchronize on the left side of the screen
On the next screen that opens, choose Synchronize under the word "Configure" (also put check marks in all the boxes that will allow you to check)
On the next screen to open choose Synchronization on the "right" side
In a couple of seconds another screen will open up where you can choose what applications to sync (calendar in Outlook, tasks in Outlook, Contacts in Outlook etc) just choose each program you need to sync and choose the program on your PC to use such as Outlook.
I also have the 8900 and it syncs with my Outlook 2003 for contacts, calendar, memo and tasks.
Hope that helps.

Trialing Acrobat Pro X - Quick Question RE: OCR

I open the PDF, but I'm very new to Acrobat - unless I am missing something, I am not finding anything to use OCR for my scanned document. In some help thread I read, it mentioned to select "DOCUMENT", then there are some OCR options...when with the document opened, I don't see any "DOCUMENT" option.
Can someone help me on this?
Thanks!

Thanks, Lori!
I see that now - and it processed - but where does the output go?

New user, question about encoding...probably been covered a few times

I am new to MAC's and video. Let me get this straight and make sure I am doing this right. I made a 1hr 18 minutes video in IMOVIES. I exported it (Share Movies - Medium Size for DVD viewing). It takes like 2 1/2 hours to encode. Is this right? Then, I opened up Magic DVD in IDVD and pulled the Video that I made on IMOVIES and added one of their snazzy intros. From this point, I am a little confused. Do i go to Project - project info - and change to high quality? or keep at Best Performance? Even though my video is 79 min (4.36 GB) it says I have reached my maximum amount and need to change encoding or something to burn? where do I go for that?
Lastly, right now I am on project info, set to best performance and it is encoding. How long does a 79 min video take to encode? Is it going to let me burn it after it finishes? Sorry new here but a quick learner.

I am not sure with imovie since I use only Final Cut Pro. iDVD setting will let you expand the file for length. Naturaly the best quality pr performance will take less time of a file. In the case with iDVD 4 the best quality will only take 60 minutes of video already compressed. Best performance will take up to about 1 hour nd 49 minutes. You have to leave enough room for the menu to take up some space on the disc as well. In FCP we have to export as a quicktime file where with a 1 hour 30 min video can take about 20 minutes to export. the burning and compression time depends on the system you have. G5 faster, G4 like mine takes longer. on that same video idvd 4 will take about 3 hours to convert and burn the disc. When I use DVD Pro Studio that is way different and take a lot longer. I have had a typical 2 hour video take up to 14 hours to convert/export to a MPEG 2 format or DVD format. But the burning process take about an hour. It all depends on your equipment.
Hope that helps.

New User Question - Simulation advancing on button but cannot figure out why

Hello everyone. I tried to do my due diligence in searching but I'm sure this is such an easy question no one else needed to ask it. I have downloaded the Adobe Captivate 6 trial as we are attempting to do some simulation e-learning. I have recorded all of my click captures and am now in the process of editing the project. It automatically created a click box with the properties to paus project until user clicks. This all works fine and allows me to click the next button and it moves to the next slide. So I thought I would be clever and create a "Show me" Help button. I created an arrow_1 and hid it from view. Then created a button_2 with the text "Show Me" and when clicked it would show arrow_1. The problem is that when this button is clicked, the arrow pops up but then the next slide is shown even though I never clicked the "Next" click box button that is supposed to advance the simulation. Looking at the timeline the only thing with a pause symbol is the click box and I have attempted to change the properties on the button_2 action settings from attempts = 1, to infinate, to last attempt no action to disabled etc. No matter what I do, if this button is in there, and it's clicked, it seems to ignore the pause simulation until someone clicks the click box properties.
Am I doing this correctly? It seemed pretty intuitive to create the show me box and show an arrow but with it in there, the simulation goes to the next page and I can't figure out why it's ignoring the click box.
Any help would be apprectiated, I have looked for tutorials on simulations but they seem to be pretty sparse out there and the help file didn't have anything like this in there.
Thanks again,
-Will

Well I don't know if this is the right way to do it but it's a way that works
I created a 2nd button and had the first button disappear after the click to be replaced by a button that doesn't work. This way the project still pauses so only the correct "Next" button process goes forward. Kind of odd coming from a visual studio background but hey until I hear the right way to do it, this will work

New User Question: Make iTunes look like the My Music folder on my PC

Hello
I newbie question. I just bought a 60g with Video.
I use Winamp for my PC, and use a Plug-in called "Dynamic Library". This allows me to see directly into my "My Music" folder while using Winamp.
Is there something similar to this that I have missed? Or, to put it another way...is there a way to have a folder created for each artist rather than a list of each song and each artist? This would enable me to scroll by artist then click that artist to see song lists (hopefully)
iTunes has a list of 5000 songs making it difficult to scroll efficiently. I really hope I don't have to manually create hundreds of playlists (one for each artist) so that I can find a song quickly.
As always, I apologize in advance if this is incredibly obvious and I have had a brain **** and missed it.
Thanks for any feedback.

Thanks Dave
I see that. Here's an example of what I'm trying to do. In my My Music folder, I had a folder called "one hit wonders," iTunes has divided this into each artist or its album. My original folder was a mix of several one hit wonder albums. Then I find out that you have to manually add album art to each artist. There was a appropriate album art in each folder. I am just surprised that iTunes couldn't automatically recognize this when it originally downloaded each folder.
I have just spent so much time organizing my "My Music" folder...untold hours. Now I'm basically looking to go through that all over again.
I wonder if I had selected "manually label each folder" or whatever the choice was when iTunes started if this would be different?

New User Question - How to Sync Sent Messages from Bold 9700

I am running BlackBerry Desktop Manager 5.0.1.37 and the 'Reconcile Email Messages' option is disabled and 'Email' is not mentioned in 'Configure Sync'. I have a BlackBerry non-enterprise data plan with my carrier. My computer is running XP PRO sp3 and Office 2007 is installed My question is how do I sync the sent messages from my Bold 9700 back into Outlook 2007? Thank you in advance.

I cannot locate this option in the documentation.
Does it exist?.
Yes, in your BIS account setup for that email address. Edit the setup and you will see at the bottom a checkbox to automatically BCC messages.
Then, on your Outlook, set a filter for your incoming messages from yourself to be re-directed to your sent folder.
