Acrobat CS4: Swapping pages in a PDF

I've got Adobe CS4. I've downloaded a PDF document, but the pages are jumbled up for booklet printing.
Is it possible to swap pages in a PDF?

OK, dumb question: where is the Pages panel?
[Edit] OK, I've found the Pages panel. The problem is that the pages are set out 2 per sheet, side-by-side in landscape format. For example, PDF Page 4 has content for Document pages 32 and 1. PDF Page 5 has Document pages 2 and 31 ...

How to use command line with acrobat to extract page(s) from pdf file?

I have adobe acrobat, and have a pdf file with over 500 pages. I need to extract small chunks of pages from it as seperate pdf files. I was hoping I could use command line interface to do this faster.
Something like:
acrobat src des start end
so for example
adobe file.pdf my_folder 3 5
Is this possible? There are many chunks and I don't want to manually do it for every chunk. Command line would be much easier...
Thanks

I can't find any programs... sorry.
Can you create one for me please.
It should at least have these 5 arguments: (well the first one is not neccessary since were not using acrobat anymore...)
[program] [src path/src file] [destination path/file name] [start page (inclusive)] [end page (inclusive)]
for example:
acrobat ./my_file.pdf ./my_folder/chunk1.pdf 3 5
if start page == end page, then it only extracts that one page.
So this way I can just stack these comands on a .bat file or something (maybe like 100 commands), then run the bat file, and it will create all the files.
Thanks for doing this, it is appreciated.

Can I save selected pages from a PDF into another PDF

In other words:
I have a Pdf with 100 pages and I only want to save 10 pages.
they are continuous i.e. pages 15-28
I have Adobe XI version 11.0.07
Thanks

Hi greg14,
For starters, you will need Acrobat to extract pages from a PDF. (It's not something that you can do with the ExportPDF service.) If you don't have Acrobat, you can download a free 30-day trial from www.adobe.com/products/acrobat.html.
Then, to extract pages, you would follow these steps:
Click on the Tools panel on the right side of the Acrobat window.
Click Pages to expand that category.
Click Extract.
Enter the page range that you want to extract in the From: and To: text boxes.
Click OK. Your pages are extracted into a new file.
Choose File > Save As to save the new file.
I hope that does the trick!
Please let us know if you have additional questions.
Best,
Sara

I am trying to drag and drop one page of a .pdf into another .pdf in Acrobat Reader. I used to be able to drag and drop from one .pdf to another.

I am trying to drag and drop one page of a .pdf into another .pdf in Acrobat Reader. I used to be able to drag and drop from one .pdf to another.

If you could drag and drop pages before, it wasn't in Reader. You no doubt had Adobe Acrobat (Pro or Standard) which shouldn't be confused with Adobe Acrobat Reader. They recently added Acrobat to the name of Adobe Reader so the confusion about which product you had and/or have is understandable.

Acrobat 8.1.2 right-click web page, convert to pdf error

I can't convert web pages to pdf using IE 7 and Adobe 8.1.2.
Vista, IE 7, Adobe CS3, Acrobat 8.1.2 gives the following error converting any web page:
"Acrobat had an error converting to pdf."
Help?

[Html to PDF problem / IE 7 and Acrobat 8x convert webpage to pdf]
What is the deal? does anyone from tech support know about this issue?
Not only that, i also have the CS3 Web Premium package and when i go to unistall components--Acrobat doesn't even show up. Not in Programs/Features for unistall under Vista--what gives?
i also run Revo Uninstaller and it doesn't see it either. i found on NemesisV Blog a 3-4pg manual unistall that takes me deep into the registry, i can't believe it--i'm so pissed.

How do I add pages to a PDF in the iPad version of Acrobat reader

How do I add pages to a PDF in the iPad version of Acrobat reader

You don't.
Adobe Reader is a reader application. You can't use it to do editing.
If you have Adobe Acrobat on Mac or Windows, you can add pages.

Is there a way to flip the pages in a .pdf so that all of the text is readable (in other words all documents are right side up)? I have Adobe Acrobat X and am using Windows 8.1.

I have a pdf with over 2,000 pages, many of which are sideways. I do not want to manually flip each one (few are next to each other). Is there a way to automate the function so that all sideways or upside down text pages are righted?

Two page display of pdf created in InDesign CS4 js

Hi, I need to set page desplay for pdf created in InDesign to two page view and I couldn't find anything like that in OMV. I assume it will be setting preferances for Matadata. Would you be able to help me.
Thank you.
Yulia

@Yulia:
You can set all "open"-options with Acrobat Pro and you can automate this with a batch process under "Advanced => Document Processing => Batch Processing".
Also there is a way to do that through pdfmark instructions inside a placed EPS. Documentation for doing a "Two-Up (Cover page)" with pdfmarks is not available in the pdfmarkReference_v9.pdf for the PageLayout-tag. And of course you have to use Distiller to get the pdfmarks working, no chance doing that trick with PDF export.
Here is the pdfmark-code for an EPS you can work with (found and adapted it from the "PostScript & PDF-Bible" by Thomas Merz and Olaf Drümmer):
%!PS-Adobe-3.0 EPSF-3.0
%%BoundingBox: 0 0 72 72
%%EndProlog
/pdfmark where {pop} {userdict /pdfmark /cleartomark load put} ifelse
[ {ThisPage} << /Trans << /S /Dissolve >> >> /PUT pdfmark
[ {Catalog} << /PageLayout /TwoColumnRight >> /PUT pdfmark
%%EOF
Save the code as a plain text file with the ".eps" suffix. Place it on any page you want to print of your InDesign layout, write a PostScript file and distill it to pdf. You should get a "Two-Up" view when opening it in Acrobat.
Meanwhile (after doing a little research on the web) it seams that all possible "/PageLayout" parameter pairs are indeed documented, but not in the pdfmarkReference_v9.pdf, but in the PDF32000_2008.pdf on page 73:
SinglePage     Display one page at a time
OneColumn     Display the pages in one column
TwoColumnLeft     Display the pages in two columns, with odd-numbered pages on the left
TwoColumnRight     Display the pages in two columns, with odd-numbered pages on the right
TwoPageLeft     (PDF 1.5) Display the pages two at a time, with odd-numbered pages on the left
TwoPageRight     (PDF 1.5) Display the pages two at a time, with odd-numbered pages on the right
Default value: SinglePage.

Acrobat 11.0.10 -- How do I delete a page in a PDF file?

I have Acrobat 11.0.10 and my "delete" icon is grayed out in the "pages" section so I cannot delete a page from a PDF file.... HELP! How do I change this?

Hi kevin,
Please let me know if this happens in all pdfs you open or any specific one.
Also, let me know your OS version.
You might check if the pdf is protected and could not be edited in any way.
Hope to hear from you.

How do I insert pages from one PDF into the current PDF in Acrobat X?

I just upgraded from Acrobat 8 to Acrobat X.
How do I insert pages from one PDF into the current PDF in Acrobat X pro? I was able to do this from the Edit menu in Acrobat 8 pro. Appreciate instructions. Thanks.

Hi chemadberk,
In my Acrobat 8 Pro, Insert Pages is under the Document menu but anyway...
In Acrobat X, click on the Tools pane(upper right side) then navigate to Pages- the Insert Pages commands are located there.
Hope this helps,

How do I change page margins on pdf file on acrobat?

Hi there
Could someone please help me. I need to change the page margins on a pdf file using adobe acrobat. The page size is 7" by 10" which I have been able to change. I need to change the page margins to:
Left - .75"
Right - .25"
Top - .25"
Bottom - .25"
I know it is probably something really simple but I just can't figure it out.
Thank you for your help
Kate

Not simple at all. Actually, Acrobat isn't built to do this type of thing. You would want to make those changes in the original document and create a new PDF.
The main problem here is that Acrobat will not reflow the text as the margins grow.

Acrobat X Pro makes text disappear from a page when I insert that page into another PDF

I printed a single page Microsoft Project schedule to PDF using Acrobat X Pro. All good. I then inserted that one page into another PDF document using Tools/Insert Pages/Insert from File. Much of the text in the inserted page goes missing after inserting that page into the other PDF document. How do I prevent this disappearing text problem?

Does the inserted page have a lot of markup? I do not think the markup will insert.

I have Acrobat XI and am trying to add pages to a pdf. Tutorials instruct to use Tools, Options or Page Thumbnail to get to a drop down command of Insert Page, does not appear as my choices.

What do you see, then?
