Acrobat 9 PRO windows help.. copy paste for dummy

Help...please
I open pdf documents, highlight the text, copy and paste into MS Word or other programs and the text spacing is all messed up. There are spaces between letters in words. How do I paste, copy or whatever? I want the copied pdf to look exactly the same in the created file that it is pasted into. If you can help, I'll need detailed instructions, my expertise is not computer stuff.
Very specifically, I'm a student and am allowed to convert lessons and lectures from text to voice to listen instead of reading all day. The NaturalSpeaker program works great on Word documents, email, and everything except pdf files. It will work on them too ifI remove the thousands of spaces that appear after pasting in the program or a word document.
Thanks.

Hi,
You are in something of pickle.
Not due to you or Acrobat.
Unfortunately, whomever provides the PDFs you are using appears to have failed to deliver a well-formed Tagged PDF from an appropriate authoring application having adequate tag management.
Tagged PDF is, by design (see ISO 32000-1), capable of supporting use of assistive technology applications, export of content (copy-paste is a sub-set of this) to Word (with layout - format- font info retained/provide), and reflow on mobile devices (tablets, smart phones, eBook readers).
Of course, the AT application authors have to hold up their end by releasing applications that behave properly with regards to the ISO Standard.
As PDF is very much a different format than that of a word processor the "copy-paste" of content does not behave in the manner we are all familiar with when doing this with a word processor file format.
Acrobat X provides a much more robust export to MS Word of untagged PDF content than that provided by previous versions.
Regardless, a well-formed Tagged PDF is usable by AT and Adobe Reader.
Lacking a "proper" PDF you could use Acrobat Pro 9 to add tags to the PDFs.
Then, export to Word or RTF.
Or, save as to accessible text.
Work this over with Word.
Be well...

How do I disable copy/paste for most (but not all) of a .pdf?

Hello, I'm trying to create a .pdf document that is a "how-to" guide. I'd like to disable copy/pasting from 95% of this document, with the exception of a few sections that i'd like my users to be able to copy and paste and use as email templates. I've gone ahead and set pasword security settings and un-checked the box for "enable copying of text, images, and other content". Is there any way that I can enable copy/paste for just a few small sections of my document? or is it an "all or none" function?
Thanks in advance for your help. -Geoff

Graffiti, Can you please expand on that? I'm using Microsoft Word as my original document. I'll have mostly paragraphs of non-copyable text, with a few sections that contain sample email templates that will be copyable. Example below. Thanks, Geoff
Here is my description of an amazing new process written in Word. To use this process, copy the email template below and customize with your own name.

I purchased Adobe CS4. I am now being asked for my serial number and when I put it in the program does not recognize it for Acrobat Pro 9 though it does for PhotoShop, Bridge and the rest of the suite. What can I do?

Contact support if you have serial number issues. Otherwise start by checking this stuff:
Sign in, activation, or connection errors

I have downloaded and installed Acrobat pro DC but its asking for a serial number of my previous version but I never had a previous version

Subscribed to PDF Pack in october, and paid for 1 year, since it is useless to me I just subscribed to Acrobat Pro. What to do for refund earlier invoice 64.99 €

, I have a subscription for Adobe’s PDF Pack since October 2014.
Sorry to say that this is of microscopic use to me:
Before I ran Vista with a perfect working Adobe Pro 8
Since a few months, I run Windows 8.1;
It appears that PDF Pack is not compatible with Windows 8;
dragging files to the www-interface is of no help to me since I mostly want to print selections of xls-sheets and drawings.
Adobe Pro 8 is not compatible with Windows 8;
So I had to forget about PDF Pack and back / upgrade to Acrobat Pro.
Therefor my request to refund me the 64.99 €, billed with invoice IEE2014001172320 dated 07/10/2014 and paid per Visa.

The same thing has happened to me, I have been charged and paid two upfront line rental fees. Subsequently BT also want a monthly rental fee. I have called customer services three times for a refund and realised I am wasting my time as they only see one payment as with you.
Today I have written a very detailed letter to the Address given on the BT web site for complaints in Durham, which is;
BT Customer Correspondence Centre
Providence Row
Durham
DH98 1BT
BT claim I will recieve a reply within 10 days, if I don't get one I will copy this letter to OffCom and to the MD of Customer Services, Warren Buckley and let them deal with it. I will get the necessary postal details for Mr Buckley from Off Com.
Like you I want my money back pronto and I intend to use whatever means that are available to achieve it.
I did pay by credit card so I also intend to get my bank involved becasuse frankly BT Customer service is a complete shambles. I have only been a customer for 12 days and am regrettiing the move already. I have also contracted for vision services so we will see how this goes.
Hope this helps you.
Let us know how you get on.

Acrobat pro: how set default properties for arrow and line tool seperately?

I have a problem with the 'comment and markup' tools in Adobe Acrobat Pro.
I would like to change the defaults of some of the tools, eg the arrow and the line tool.
This can be achieved by right-clicking on something drawn using the tool in question and then selecting 'properties' - or by selecting the tool and then press ctrl+E, wich opens a 'Callout Tool Properties', and then change what you want there. The latter option keeps the changes as defaults - the former offers a box to tick in the 'properties' dialogue that opens - or, you can right-click on the object again after having changed the properties, and then select 'Make Current Properties Default'.
My Problem is now, that, apparently, you cannot choose and save default properties freely and for each tool. I woul like to have the default properties for the line tool set as the following:
-line color: yellow
-line thickness: 8pt
-opacity: 60%
and fot the arrow tool as this:
-line color: red
-line thickness: 1pt
-opacity: 100%
This all works fine as long as the program is open. As soon as I exit and start it again opening another document /the same one again, the arrow tool changes to
-line color: yellow
-opacity: 60%
only the line thickness remains at 1pt.
If I change the properties of the line to the ones I want for the arrow, the arrow properties remain unaltered if I close Acrobat Pro.
Why do these properties interfere? Why is it "line color/thickness" in both? Why, then, do only the opacity and the color interfere, but not the thickness - even if it's the latter two properties that are bot called "line xxx"? Why does Acrobat not save all properties for these two shapes seperately - even IF the two shapes are both of a line-like kind?
Is there a way to get around this?

Trobbel - This indeed is puzzling behavior. Clicking 'Make Current Properties Default' should preserve the default appearance for each. I don't have a solution, but merely a couple of suggestions:
1) Make sure you have installed any available upgrade for your version of Acrobat Professional.
2) Consider using the line tool exclusively - you can add an arrowhead and make one tool perform both tasks.
Hope this helps. /rmbrown

Booklet Printing in Acrobat Pro 8 Help!

I am printing 500 of an 18 page - 5 page in the signature - booklet through Acrobat Pro 8.0.1. It takes HOURS for the file to load into the printer and I am only trying to print 50 at a time. I changed the default printer to Adobe PDF 8.0.1 and that did not help. Any tips, hints etc. or should I just flagellate myself for taking this job I thought was going to be so quick and easy! Laughing, but not very hard....
Thank you in advance for any help...
Kathy
I am on a Mac...still on Tiger.

It seems as though the PDF is expanding back to postscript when you hit
print and a HUGE postscript file is chugging across the network.
Does your printer support hot-folders? In other words, can you take the
PDF and just DROP into the printer queue? This is the way many systems
these days work - gets away from the donkey work on your end ...

Copy-paste for HTML

Respect,
I have to implement copy-paste feature for HTML content (from JEditorPane).
In my onButtonClick method I used something like this:
JEditorPane doc = contentPanel.getActiveEditorPane( ) ; //my html content
TextTransfer textTransfer = new TextTransfer( ) ;
textTransfer.setClipboardContents( doc.getSelectedText( ) ) ;This works ok only for plain text (i.e. when I try to paste on MS Word, I got plain text).
I need styled text, with all html tags, which MS Word is capable to display.
Can anybody help?
Thanks in advance.

This is code that I can't use any more. Yes, I would maybe need to transfer images too (but not the moment). Now I just need too be able to correctly copy html content (all tags and headers). Is there any other "Transfer class"? Or, could I try to fire event like Ctrl+C? How do I do that?
thanks for your time

In the open doc, tap and hold over the phrase you want to copy. Move the pointers to enclose the phrase. Tap copy. Go to where you want to paste. Tap and hold in a space then tap paste.
And the same will work basically on most all documents, emails, messages, websites and URLs on the PlayBook.

Copy / Paste for the key of a Wifi connection on N...

Hello,
It would be great to be able to paste a password for the key of a Wifi network.
When a key is more than 60 char long and has a lot of special characters, it is really hard to type (with a numeric key because it is not possible to use the azerty keyboard on this screen).
Also, to be able to select some text from a Txt file would be great (so I can copy a text file in the memory card of the GSM and then I can paste it
Is there a way to do it?
Thank you
Marc

Press and hold the 'pencil' icon and at the same time, push the cursor towards the text. You'll be able to see the text being highlighted. Once you've completely highlighted the text, you'll be able to see 2 options on screen: Copy / Paste. Select 'Copy' (with your finger still pressing the 'pencil' button.) Now let go of the pencil button, and press and hold it again, then select 'Paste'
You can even exit the application that you were in and start a new one and paste your copied text there. The text will still be stored in memory until u either select another text to copy or restart the phone.

Failure to install Acrobat Pro Windows from cs3

I installed cs3 yesterday and it installed all apps but Acrobat Pro...I tried 3 times to install just Acrobat Pro but each time it stated "failed to install" - what can I do to install this? Prior to this I ahd cs3 installed correctly (including Acrobat Pro) for a long while and all worked fine. However, last week I suddenly had problems with Acrobat (it gave runtime error) so I uninstalled and tried to reinstall...then all the above occured. At one point (just to view a doc) I installed current reader version from online...but promptly uninstalled it to try and reinstall Pro again...any help would be appreciated! Kathy

Thanks...this worked...I am now closer than before to re-using the
software...however, now I have a new error message on Acrobat Pro from CS3:
"Missing PDFMaker files. Do you want to run the installer in repair mode?"
When I select "yes" the system takes for ever to do nothing. Any insight on
this?
Kathy
