Amending/changing PDF's with Elements

Hi Everyone
I want to know if you can pull a PDF document apart using Elements. I work in Marketing and would find it very useful if I could amend the designers PDF's to show them visually my comments/changes rather than just briefing them.  Can you do this in Elements or do I have to purchase the full Photoshop package?
Many thanks Jo

You have two choices when you import a PDF into PSE: import the whole thing and save it as an image (no text editing, image editing etc, any more than if you could do if the document had been scanned as a jpg or tiff file), or import just the images. As I said, the free adobe reader is far more suitable for what you want to do.
But yes, you could use the image of the pdf as the base for another image file, but your colleagues will not thank you, since they will have to recreate all your edits from scratch--no copy/paste of any text corrections from what you send back, for instance.

    An attempt to open a pdf file with Photoshop Elements (version 12) resulted in a pop generated by the Photoshop Editor stated "Impossible to execute this operation (opening file) because one of the specified colour is not managed". Is there any mean to adapt the file to make its reading possible?
    Did somebody get the same problem?

    It is a high order probability that your SQL's report generator is creating the PDF, not Acrobat (which by design and EULA cannot be used in as/with server).
    That the report generator outputs to an old-old version of PDF bears this out.
    Wiki articles on PDF are very nice for those high level intro summaries.
    To know / understand PDF you purchase and study the ISO Standard for PDF (ISO 32000-1:2008).
    Rather than "PDF validation" you may want to consider addressing the appearent root cause of the problem(s).
    You can change the email2fax application to one that can deal with older PDF versions.
    You can change the report generator to one that can output to the ISO Standard.
    (Perhaps the in-use application can be configured to output to the current version of PDF (i.e., the ISO Standard).

  • Is there a good way to automate changing existing links to external PDFs to instead be to PDF attachments with same names?

    Greetings!
    Can anyone tell me a good way to automate changing a "main" PDF's existing hyperlinks to external PDFs to instead be links to PDF attachments to the main PDF (the attached PDFs to have the same filenames as the external PDFs) ?
    Format of current link in main PDF:
    Go to a page in another document
    File: C:\\path\filename.pdf
    Destination name: P:1
    When link is manually changed to link to a PDF that has been attached to the main PDF:
    Go to a page in another document
    File: PDF attachment
    Page: 1
    Zoom level: Fit page
    The new PDF link does not list the PDF attachment filename in the link.
    The main PDF (the one that has the links that I would like to automatically change) is generated with the hyperlinks to other PDFs from Adobe FrameMaker 11.  In FrameMaker11, we added special marker text "openpage filename.pdf:1" that is "automatically" changed to be hyperlinks to external PDFs when the main PDF is created (postscript file is processed) by Adobe Acrobat Pro 11.
    My first choice is to be able to change the format of the special marker text in Adobe FrameMaker source file, but I have not found way to specify a link to be to a PDF attachment with a certain filename.
    However, I would also really like the option of running a batch file on a main PDF to change the links there.
    Has anyone tried using that Adobe ExtendScript ToolKit CS6 to do this? That is, a script that could automatically modify the hyperlinks in a PDF to link to PDF attachments rather than external PDFs, or else modify the unprocessed links while they are still in Postscript file format, or else modify the marker text in FrameMaker to instead of creating a link to a PDF in the same directory as the main PDF being processed, to create a link to a PDF attachment files?
    Thank you,

    FrameMaker's Hypertext feature has no ability to "link" to an attachment on/in a target PDF.
    PDFs sourced from FM can have named destinations set in the FM authoring files such that a link from file01.fm to the specified named destination in file01.fm will be functional in the PDFs created from the FM files.
    Then, of course, there's the dynamics possible by use o FM Books. But that's the grist for the mills at the FM user-2-user forum.
    RE: Scripting - PDF scripting is via Acrobat JavaScript. That something still of and by Adobe although it may migrate to an ISO Standard (or be rolled up in a future ISO 32000).
    So, to the point - look to Acrobat JavaScript for scripting.

  • Dante font used in manuscript - when I try to save as a pdf document in Microsoft Word whole pages change their look, with wide gaps forming between certain paragraphs or sections. This does not happen with other fonts.

    Dante font used in manuscript … when I try to save as a pdf document in Microsoft Word whole pages change their look, with wide gaps forming between certain paragraphs or sections. This does not happen with other fonts.

    OK, we've got it!
    What is happening is that when you use Microsoft's save as PDF in Word, the font isn't embedded even though the font is tagged to allow embedding. Furthermore, Microsoft doesn't properly put the font name into the PDF file such that Acrobat or Reader can readily find the font installed on your system such that the text can be properly displayed and/or printed. Acrobat and Reader attempt to display and/or print the text using a “substitution font” and of course, as they say, YMMV (“your mileage may vary”)!
    I personally submitted the report of this problem (both the embedding and the font name problem) to Microsoft. They acknowledge the bug, tried a fix and provided me a build with it, but it wasn't right. Maybe they will ultimately fix it, maybe they won't. We don't know yet. We do know that if it is fixed, it will be fixed only for Office 2013 (problem occurs with all Office applications since they use the same PDF generation code) and thus such a fix won't help you.
    Adobe Acrobat Standard and Acrobat Pro  both provide an Adobe PDFMaker plug-in to Office applications (including full support for Office 2010) that adds an Acrobat Toolbar as well as a Save as Adobe PDF menu item. The resultant PDF file fully supports embedding of OpenType CFF, TrueType, and Type 1 fonts and in many other ways produces much superior PDF with a full range of PDF generation options not available with the Microsoft PDF. (Note that beginning with Office 2013, Microsoft does not support Type 1 fonts in Office documents at all, even for existing documents!) The Acrobat Office functions are widely used and respected in the end user community and whatever “issues” there are (all software has “issues” of some type - it is a matter of how many and how severe), you should be in much better shape for PDF production that with what you currently are using.
    Good luck and let us know if this resolves your problems. (Note that you can download and install a free fully-functional 30 trial of Acrobat Pro to assure that it meets your needs! You can then buy a license and activate what you already have installed.)

    You can move the iTunes folder to a separate drive on your pc an then configure each account to use this drive / folder as iTunes library ... The problem is, that iTunes by default stores everything in your personal music folder which is separate for each user account in windows (and by default is on "C" drive).
    I create a separate partition on every pc/laptop (and map a drive name) where I store music, videos and other mass data. This will also keep the "C" drive small, which is backed up from time to time and so my backup is also small.

  • PDF files with wrong colors

    Hi All,
    I apologize if this has already been discussed, but I probably cannot guess the right search string to find the relevant thread.
    I've recently upgraded from FM6 Mac to FM9 Win. My old FM6 documents have two kinds of problems in FM9:
    1) replaced fonts horizontally scaled to 80%
    2) colors looking good on the display, but bad when converted to PDF
    As for issue #1, I couldn't do other than editing all the paragraph styles. But eventually I could solve it in a way or the other.
    But issue #2, I cannot seem to come to an end with it. The original color was a Pantone swatch, that I can also find in the Win version of FM. In fact, when opening the FM file, it looks at it used to do on the Mac.
    However, either I save as PDF from the File > Save to PDF menu command, or print a file using the PDF driver (with the Press Quality selected), the resulting color is wrong. What used to be a Grey-Blue Pantone 191-7, is now some sort of Cyan. Tones change slightly whether I convert using the Print > Do not save file trick, or use Acrobat Distiller 8 on the Mac with different settings; but the original color is never reproduced.
    Oddly, an EPS file in the same FM file looks perfectly good - the original color is there. What a contrast with the oddly-colored text and lines in the remaining parts of the document!
    Maybe someone has already gone through this issue, and has a solution for me. I'm literally loosing my sleep to try to solve this issue.
    Thank you in advance!

    Obviously, before spending a considerable price for additional software, I would like to see if I can solve the problem with what I have.
    Paolo,
    I've done some in-depth color testing with FM9, and the results can be downloaded here: http://www.meissner-dokuteam.de/Files/Frame/colortest_fm9_p250_FM_elements_EN.pdf
    In short words, for the "Save as PDF" CMYK version:
    - Spot colors from imported definitions are converted to CMYK
    - Spot colors from FM Pantone library are correctly output as Pantone colors *
    - Spot colors in imported EPS files are always correctly output
    * I was able to nail down the spot color bug: The critical element is the "Name of color" entry in the color definition dialog (below the dropdown/entry field "Name"). If there is a name, then the color will be correctly output as a pantone color. You can see this, if you define a color taken from the FM library, they all contain a "Name of color" entry. Self-defined colors or colors which came in by graphics import don't contain a name there, and are output as CMYK colors.
    You can fix this behaviour, if you save your FM files as MIF, and add the required lines at the color definitions yourself. I for example used self defined spot colors, and added the lines
    <ColorLibraryFamilyName `WambaSamba self-defined'>
    <ColorLibraryInkName `WambaSamba Blue'>
    Now even self-defined spot colors work. You can see this in this pdf: http://www.meissner-dokuteam.de/Files/Frame/colortest_fm9_p250_FM_elements_EN_MIFedit2.pdf
    and download the editet MIF file (for analyzing) here: http://www.meissner-dokuteam.de/Files/Frame/colortest_fm9_p250_FM_elements_EN_MIFedit.mif. zip
    One more bug, but this time in Acrobat: Spot color tints are always displayed at 100%, when you open the PDF, unless you enable Output/Overprint preview.
    Regards,
    Bernd

  • Reader 11.0.07 does not display content of PDFs created with LiveCycle Designer ES 8.1

    We use some PDFs created with LiveCycle Designer ES 8.1 which do not show any content when opened with Reader 11.0.07, only a blank display area or erratic copies of the screen behind it. Documents look fine in print preview though and also print correctly. Tried to change various security or display settings, no effect. Tried other machines, different hardware, different OS versions (Win7, Win8), same effect on every single device with 11.0.07 installed.
    Any ideas, anyone?!?

    Hi,
    Not sure why you are resolving the node (??), also I would not be inclined to include a period in the object name (.), maybe this is why you are resolving the node.
    Also I don't see in the script where you are calling the instanceManager, in order to use the addInstance method.
    Having said that the problem may be in the File > Form Properties > Defaults tab:
    Check that Preserve script changes is set to Automatic.
    Lastly is the form Reader Enabled? It would need to be for users with Reader to save the changes, including new instances of a repeating element.

  • PE 10 TRIAL: all clips inserted get changed to "created with PE 10 trial version"

    Installed PE 10 trial version.  when I add clips, immediatly they get changed to " created with Adobe Premier Elements trial version".  It happens all the time.  Inserting one two or any number of clips, they all get changed to "created with Adobe Premier Elements trial version". I can save the project and when I open it up it's the same results.  Any ideas as to what to try to solve this problem?

  • Change PDF print layout

    I am attempting to print multiple pages per sheet.  I have the option to customize the number of pdf pages per printed page.  However, if I were to choose any layout that is 1 across and any number down per sheet, the pages always print down the middle.  There is no way to print everything on the left side.
    For instance, I have a powerpoint that was provided to me as a pdf.  I cannot get the original and I would like to print this copy.  I would like the slides to print multiple per page down the left side, leaving the right side to write notes.  However, choosing multiple pages per sheet and then customizing the layout to 1x3 prints three slides in a column down the center of the page.  Is there a way to print them 3 in a column down the left side of the page, leaving the right side blank?

    Colum is pointing you to that because it tells you how to remove what you have referrred to as Chapter Layout and that item is in the third page of the wizard. I suspect however it is the TOC you want to remove. If you remove Chapter Layout in the wizard, you will not have any content.
    You can change the font with a different workflow. Generate to Word instead of PDF and you can change the style there. If you are doing this frequently, map to a Word template and amend the style in that.

  • Large pdf(40MB) with 600 pages color quality is poor if i print more than 1 or 2 pages at a time.

    I have a 40MB PDF file with over 600 pages of color images. If i print each page one at a time, there is no issue whatsoever with the quality, but if i print say 5 pages, the 4th and 5th page and any subsequent page will look like rubbish. In general, just not the same color quality as before. The Konica Minolta printer doesn't seem to be at fault here because like i mentioned, this problem does not occur if i print individual sheets, just if i print more than 5 or so.
    Printing individual sheets in this instance, however, is not a real solution because in all the job will have many thousand pages. What do i do? Any one here experience a similar problem?

    You were able to catch me whilst my Konica Minolta tech was here.
    This is my take on his diagnosis,
    The c353 while capable of quality output is not exactly a robust production level machine.
    Without the aid of a RIP, all the processing needs to happen either in memory or it may have a hdd. Does the machine have a hard drive?
    In either case, you are running out of memory.
    Changing the printers properties on spooling may aid in completing the job.
    He mentioned sending the job as raster. Print as Image from Acrobat's Advanced tab would do that, but I think you would cripple your computer doing such. Try it; be prepared to go out to lunch or something while it churns away.

                                       The issues i'm facing are:
    When it is reading a row from MS-Excel it is writing to the .pdf file from last cell to first cell.( 2 cell in 1 place, 1 cell in 2 place like if the row has two cells with data as : Name of the Intern: Kesavulu Reddy then it is writing to the .pdf file as Kesavulu Reddy Name of Intern)
    and the second issue is:
    It is not recognizing the date format..it is recognizing the date in first row only......
    Plz Tell me wht is the solution for this...

  • How to open a pdf form with fdf data

    Hi all,
          I am working on a new project. In that, I have to load a PDF contract form with FDF data on Internet Explorer Window.
    I don't know how to do it. Actually I tried using this format on the URL (while loading the respective page)
    http://www.example.org/pdf_file_name.pdf#FDF=http://www.example.org/fdf_file_name.fdf
    But it opened as an empty pdf document. . Actually I need it with the fdf data.
    Can anyone know any other way to do this?
    Or is this not possible to open a pdf form with fdf data in a browser?
    Thanks in advance
    Annamalai

    @ Bernd. It still opens a text file
    Here's my FDF file sample
    %FDF-1.2

    (I have uploaded the related pdf file before.)
    Just now I got an idea to use WScript (the code is written in javascript)
    ws = new ActiveXObject("WScript.shell");
    ws.Run('"AcroRd32.exe" "C:\\annukar\\Refi\\Refinance_Module\\Forms\\Contract.fdf"', 1, true);
    this opens my fdf document in Acrobat reader using command prompt.
    I have a doubt now, can i use some string in place of "C:\\annukar\\Refi\\Refinance_Module\\Forms\\Contract.fdf" in the above command?
    I mean something like fdf_file = "C:\\annukar\\Refi\\Refinance_Module\\Forms\\Contract.fdf"
    and replace ws.Run('"AcroRd32.exe" fdf_file,1,true). I tried it but it doesn't work Any idea's? Since the path will not remain the same always. So i need to change it
