Adding images and saving PDFs to send.

Hello!
I have a PDF file that I want to add/input my texts and images (signatures) into its application forms and SAVE to a PDF again to send.
Do I really need to get the very expensive Acrobat just to do those simple tasks? Or are there any freeware version for Windows and/or Linux that can do these? I don't need a fancy editor.
Thank you in advance.

Resources from a jar file work from the root of the jar. So lets say you have an image stored in your jar like:
img\myimage.png
then the path to look it up would be:
URL url = getClass().getClassLoader().getResource("img/myimage.png");This will work from any java code, no matter how you invoke it. The only restriction is that the file must be on the classpath, meaning in a jar or in the classes directory of a netbeans project.I think that is at least misleading, according to my understanding. When you start a resource path with a / then the path is relative to the Classpath. So if a jar is in the Classpath, a / means the root of the jar. Outside a jar, it is relative to the directory(s) in the Classpath. When you start a resource path without a / it is relative to the .class file. If your class is not in a named package and you jar it, then / or no / is the same.

Adding images and buttons without a frame appearing

I would like to add images to some of my pages without having them appear in a frame. I would like to place some transparent gifs on the page to use as buttons for hyperlinks. I would also like to have some photos (with transparent backgrounds that appear on the page and are not surrounded by a picture frame. Any Suggestions

iWeb seems to default to stroking newly-added images and shapes. Pages (iWeb's close relation) includes a way to change the default appearance, but I can't find anything similar in iWeb. You can, of course, remove the stroke using the Graphic Inspector (just set Stroke to None). Transparency in gifs and photo images is supported. Just drag into iWeb or use Insert > Choose... Again, remove the stroke if this appears.

Print html to image and create pdf

Hi!
I'm looking for a way to convert html-pages to fairly good looking pdf-files. As far as I have found there are only one product that can do this and they will not stay in budget.
So I wonder if there is a way to "print" the html to an image that one then could add to a pdf document, perhaps with iText.
Has anyone done this before? Is it even possible with the tools available for our budget.
Thank you very much in advance

One page displays as negative image when saving PDF to reduced size in Preview

Imac Intel Mid 2007
OS X 10.5.8
Preview v4.2
I have a multi-page PDF I'm trying to save to a reduced size.
The document was constructed of separate pages, some of which were created as Photoshop PDFs in Photoshop CS4 and others were saved as PDF's from Word. After moving over the individual PDF's to the side bar, the document saves fine in Preview at full size. When I use the quartz filter to "Save As" "Reduced File Size" one page saves as a negative image and the others are all fine.
One suggestion I saw in a similar thread was that the mode in PS might be CMYK, however it is not and it is RGB.
Any help as to solving this would be greatly appreciated.

Elaborate, please.
Is there a way to save to pages out in one go to jpeg where I can adjust the dpi setting?
Yes. Build an Automator workflow using the PDFs > Render PDF Pages as Images action.
Once I have the reduced jpegs it's easy enough to reimport into preview and save as a pdf.
If the desired final output is multi-page PDF, no need to go through all that. You can do the task in Acrobat Pro (PDF Optimizer), or in Preview (Save as > PDF > Quartz Filter). If the current Reduce File Size filter doesn't provide satisfactory quality, use ColorSync Utility to duplicate it (or make a new filter from scratch) and adjust it to fit your needs.

I saw the responses on the page to opening and saving pdfs but it is cumbersome to shut down the function in Mozilla and work around it. Is there a fix coming?

Until the Firefox 23 update I had no difficulty opening or saving pdfs in Firefox, but since the most recent update (Firefox 23) I often get error messages about damaged files when I use the download button and try to open or save files. I've checked with another browser and they open or save fine. I've tried disabling the pdf but it is cumbersome. I am using MSWord 7 if that makes any difference. Is there a fix coming for this?

Hello,
In order to change the default reader for PDF files (to not open PDF files with Firefox's internal PDF reader), follow these steps:
#Go to ''Tools'' > ''Options'' (or ''Firefox'' > ''Options'').
#In the Options window, select the ''Applications'' tab.
#In the ''Search'' field, type ''PDF''. You should find ''Portable Document Format (PDF)''.
#On the right handside you should find an ''Action'' column. Use that to select Adobe Reader Plugin for Netscape (or something similar). Did this fix your problems? Please report back to us!
Thank you.

PDF with hyperlinks to images and other PDFs.

Hi, All.
I would like to create a small booklet with approximately 12 to 16 pages as a PDF document but wish to have images and text in the document set as hyperlinks so that they can launch other images and/or documents. In other words, a viewer could click on an image or text and then see an enlarged image open on the center of his computer screen or see another document open over the original PDF. This would work in a similar fashion to what one can do with interactive books on the iPad created with iBook Author.
The questions I have are:
Where can I find more material to read on how to create PDF with these features?
I have seen PDFs that open with an application on screen that makes them 'feel' more like a real magazine. They are not a typical Acrobat or similar PDF viewer but rather an application that 'flips' the pages in a similar manner to what one would do holding a real magazine. Is it possible to do this with the PDF documents launched by hyperlinks on my PDF document?
Can these hyperlinks open enlarged images in the center of the screen while the remaining area around the image (background) become darker to place emphasis on the image?
How can I learn more about these features and how to use them with Acrobat and PDF documents?
In case the information is relevant I am currently running Acrobat 9 Pro version 9.5.3 on a Mac.
This is sort of an urgent project so any help you can share will be very appreciated.
TIA,
Joe.

Signing and Saving PDF

My Adobe isn't letting me add a signature, and the document that I am downloading from my school's website has signature not allowed under properties. Tried to convert to word and then back to a PDF to change properties but it is still not allowing signatures without echosign. My prof needs to add his own signature and does not want to do it through echosign. Trying to get the document signed and saved as a PDF then sent to him. Any suggestions?

Thank you for the answer and explanation. Unfortunately I am still not sure the best solution.
It is a business application for a city site. As a result the limit of 500 is obviously not going to work. Also for legal reasons they need the form physically signed.
The original hope was to provide a PDF form that could be filled in (almost entirely) on the computer if desire and then printed, signed, and turned in to the city.
What they don't want is for someone to fill it out on the computer, use the echosign and email it as they need the physical signature.
Sounds like we might have to choose between:
- not having it interactive (so they can just print it out and fill it out)
Or
- make it so they can fill it out on the computer, but include instructions that they need the print it out and physically sign it. And hope they follow the instructions.
Again, thank you for the explanation. I think I will just have to let them decide.

Adding images into a pdf as pages

I need to add images into a pdf but want to do it in a way that when I add them, it will resize the image to the page size. The images are large format when inserted. Anyone know what to change in the settings to automatically resize the images at insertion?
Thanks
John

Hi,
The Professional version of Acrobat (8.x & 9.x) provides the means of creating a "blank page".
In either, opening the Acrobat Help and clicking on "Search" lets you enter the string:
"blank page".
In both (8 & 9) the first (top) return is "Create a PDF from a blank page".
From the menu (for both releases) -
File > Create PDF > From Blank Page
will result in a blank PDF being created by Acrobat.
From Acrobat Preferences (discussed in the installed Help and in the online LiveDocs Help - a help system that reflects ongoing updating) you can provide some configure control for the blank page.
Edit > Preferences > select Category "New Document".
Alternatively, you could set up a desired page size in an authoring application and output a "blank" PDF for use.
Placing an image –
One way to do this.
With the PDF open, open the Advanced Editing menu and select the TouchUp Object Tool
or use Tools > Advanced Editing > TouchUp Object Tool
With the TouchUp Object Tool selected & mouse cursor in the PDF page, right click for the context menu.
Select Place Image (Shift+G in windows while context menu is present can also be used).
In the Browse dialog, locate and select the desired image.
Once the image has been placed to the PDF page it (the image) will have black "grab" squares at each corner.
Use these to size the image. With mouse cursor in the image the up-down-left-right cursor icon appears.
Use this to position the image.
Button Tool –
AA8Pro:
Tools > Forms > Button Tool
Also, on the Forms Toolbar
AA9Pro:
Tools > Advanced Editing > Buttons
Also, on the Advanced Editing Toolbar
Over the years the depth and breadth of features available with Acrobat (Pro & Pro Extended in particular) have
grown dramatically. All the discrete topics are in Acrobat Help, arranged in a pretty logical hierarchy.
Unfortunately, as you allude to, locating the individual topics and establishing a practicable understanding of how
disparate topics come together to support specific tasks can be a challenge.
Fortunately, this affords forum participants the opportunity to share the "how-to" understanding they've acquired.

Problems loading and saving pdf files from sites with latest version.

On my utilities I wish to download and save pdf files of my e-bill.
Lately when I click on getting bill, Firefox opens new tab and stops.
with a light message in url place saying "Type a web address".
To get around this I must do a right click on the save bill and
select open in new window, then it opens a new copy of Firefox,
and two tabs, with the second one asking me to use Adobe to see
pdf file. I tell it to open and then save it and print it from the tab
that opens with the pdf file in it. This never happened before was
always able to just click on link and it would open new tab with
pdf file there.

Thanks for the replies. I don't think I was clear enough with my question.
What I want to be able to do is to click on a PDF file in my Firefox browser and be able to save it as an Adobe PDF file, not a Preview PDF file, in any folder on my computer, rather than just the specified default location for downloads. This way I can save, for example, phone bills in the phone bills folder and bank statements in the bank statements folder without having to save them to the desktop, "Get Info" on each, and change the "Open with:" box from Preview to Adobe Reader.
Fortunately, thanks to Michael's post, I found an add-on from Firefox that allows me to do just that: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/636
Thanks for your help. Now, within my Firefox browser, I can choose whether to view or download PDF files, always in Adobe rather than Preview, and when I save them I get the option to choose the location each and every time.

Acrobat 7 not converting images and saving as .jpg, any ideas?

I am running Windows XP with MS Word 07. When I copy a photo in Word, open Adobe Acrobat 7 (latest update) and select "File > Create .pdf > From Clipboard Image" all seems to work fine--the photo shows up on the screen within Acrobat. The problem starts when I click "File > Save As > .jpg > Save." I go to the location that I saved the file; however, it isn't there. I changed the folder option in xp to show all hidden files and still nothing. Has any had this problem and or ideas on how to fix? Thank you!

I did try saving it as a .pdf first and then did a "save as" .jpg. Acrobat seems to run through the process just fine; however, when I go to where the file should be, it's not there. I like using Acrobat for this versus MS Paint because Acrobat seems so much faster. With MS Paint, I find that I have to enter in dimensions to have the .jpg show correctly.

Labview IMAQ VI for capturing images and saving with incremental file names

Hello,
I am using LabView 7.1(IMAQ) to capture images with NI's PCI 1426 card, and a JAI CV-M2 camera. Now, with the example VI's like LL Grab, or LL Sequence, or Snap and Save to File.vi, I can capture the images. But what I actually want is to capture images continuously and keep saving them with a sequentially incrementing file name.
I have tried to modify the Snap and Save to File.vi by adding a 'for loop', so as to run this for required number of images. This works okay, but I can't really change the file name after every image. However, I'm not confident with this method either. I think it would be better to use the buffer itself, as is given in LL Grab.vi and somehow save images from the buffer. I think this would be faster ?
In any case, any ideas as to how I should go about implementing auto-incrementing of the file name ?
Any help will do.
Thanks.
- Prashant

Hi,
Thanks a lot for replying.
I tried using this in the VI i was working with, but using the "build path" vi doesnt seem to work. If I use just the base path from user's input, it works, but then again it keeps overwriting the images into one file rather than giving each file a new name. I'm attaching the vi.
Please take a look and tell me where i'm going wrong.
Thanks again.

Error while working and saving .PDF files from Illustrator CS 5.1

One of my partners has been facing issues while working with Adobe Illustrator PDF Files, especially while saving them. We've lost so many hours of work with these errors. We own an early 2009 iMac (MB418LL/A) running OS X Mountain Lion (10.8.5). You can see the specs in this link:
iMac "Core 2 Duo" 2.66 24-Inch (Early 2009) Specs (Early 2009, MB418LL/A, iMac9,1, A1225, 2267) @ EveryMac.com.
She works with vectors and images, most of the time. At the moment, working on a Letter sheet sized magazine. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks in advance.
This is the error shown: http://txs.io/Xnrb

Alvin,
Just to make sure: Where are you/is she saving?
Here it is always recommended to open/save AI documents from/to own harddisk, and to only copy from/to externals such as local server/whatever.
The reason is that with the latter, AI files tend to get corrupted sooner or later, so you may be lucky for a while but it hurts when your luck runs out.

Signatures and Saving PDF forms

I purchased AdobeExport in July 2012. I was able to type info into a pdf form and save it, and sign a document (insert a signature image file), save it and print it all out. These features are no longer available. My account was automatically renewed for another year starting July 2013.
Were the sign and save features only for one year?
I do not want EchoSign as I do not need 3rd party signatures; just the ability to sign documents that I send.
Thank you.

DrClap you hit the nail on the head. After doing a lot of research I have found that adobe actually has a pdf sdk, an acrobat sdk, and a product called live cycle that one or all may give me the functionality I need. Now I am just trying to figure out which one will do it at the most reasonable price.
Sabre, I am going to make a pdf that looks like a spread sheet and gives them an option to enter a price into one field.
Being that 99% of our customers are not going to have acrobat or have any idea how to actually go about changing a pdf document, security through obscurity works well for us in this situation as we are not really concerned about them changing info beyond the fact that we will have some issues processing it. At that point we will deal with that on a per case basis. I just don't want to give them an excel spread sheet and say here have fun as we have done that before and it is a nightmare like DrClap said.
As for the requirements in my original post I stated that I need to make a form that users can fill out, save, and then send back to us for processing. And this will accomplish what I am trying to do if I can make it work so I guess I don't understand your remark about the requirement and solution being flawed.
Thanks for the input guys.

Extracting images and saving as separate .jpg AAX

Hello,
I have Acrobat X Standard and I would like to extract the images (photos) from a .pdf and save the images as separate .jpg's (to insert into another document (.doc)). I do not have Photoshop available to me. Is this possible?
Thank you,
Julie

Nevermind. Copy and paste from Reader worked. Yet, it wouldn't work in Acrobat. Whatever.
