Best Adobe product for editing PDF, replacing English text with Thai without altering/recompressing images, graphics etc.?

I have an English language PDF, a medical device brochure, the content of which has already been translated into Thai (in Word). I want to replace the original English in the PDF with the Thai translation easily without altering any other aspect of the brochure, like graphics, images, margins etc. (No doubt I'll have to tweak line height, font sizes and paragraph lengths a little.) I'm unsure of what would be the best Adobe product for this purpose, e.g. Illustrator, InDesign or Acrobat (or something else), that would allow me simply to open the PDF, replace the English with Thai in an attractive Thai font (to be embedded), make minor layout tweaks, then save without any compression so the quality and colours of the original photos, artwork, and graphical elements are preserved. I've heard Office 2013 allows direct editing of a PDF but I'm not sure if it converts, alters or compresses PDF graphics in some way when first opening the file. Could anyone with relevant experience please advise? Thanks in advance.

Adobe's only offering here is Adobe Acrobat. However, I must say something. I have heard from many people who sought to translate a PDF in this way. NONE SUCCEEDED. PDF is not suitable for this purpose. Obtain the original, this should be part of your contract for translation. If this is impossible, expect to remake the document; Word is probably unsuitable for a brochure of this type, maybe InDesign.

  • Best Adobe Product for Creating Slide Show

    I'm trying to find out what is the best Adobe product to use to create slide shows? I have Photoshop CS2 and just got Premiere Pro (which I haven't used before).

    Many options, it depends on what you want to do.
    Premiere Pro can easily make a video that displays a series of images in turn, with optional transitions between them, but the viewer can't navigate around as they could with a PowerPoint file.
    Later versions of Photoshop can also assemble still photos into a video sequence.
    If you want to display the slideshow on a website, you're looking at an HTML/JavaScript solution.
    Finally you can combine your slides into a PDF file and set it to full-screen mode with automatic timings.

    Just Purchased a MacBook Pro.  What it the best Adobe product to get to be able to view PDFs?

    Yes, Mountain Lion has a convoluted method to do a "Save as", but try this. Open the applicable PDF, from the "File" menu select "Duplicate". This will create a copy of the PDF file and highlight the name at the top of the page. Here you can type in a new name, and a gain from the "File" menu select "Move To" or "Save" to save the resultant, newly named PDF.

  • Best Adobe program for compelling editorial portfolio

    Hello,
    I am a writer, editor, and all-around communications professional. (In these times, it doesn't hurt to diversify.) I'm consequently trying to put together a portfolio in an easily accessed format (PDF) that showcases writing, editing, and graphic generation samples. What is the best Adobe product to do this? I need something that will let me bring in Word documents while retaining their formatting - and also then let me organize my content in pretty ways, all indexed by a table of contents.
    Thanks for any help. I clicked 'Indesign' because it looked the best bet, but if this is the best program for my needs, could you briefly also explain how this program can easily fulfill my needs?
    Thanks again for any help.

    InDesign may well be the best bet. It's a page layout application that allows you to import a variety of text and graphic formats and arrange them on the page. It also has a Table of Contents feature Driven by paragraph styles (so you may need to add non-printing text labels for non-text items you want to include), and it allows you to export as PDF and SWF, as well as eps or jpeg (which isn't great -- you'll get better results rasterizing a PDF in Photoshop).
    Normally when importing word files you do the formatting in InDesign to take advantage of it's superior typography and positioning, but you can certainly preserve as much or as little as you like of what you've done in Word. The exception to this is images you've included in your Word documents. Those should be imported again separately (you can copy/paste them with proper preference settings, but the results are usually not very satisfactory). If you want an absolute copy of the Word document, it is probably best to make a PDF from Word and import that instead.
    If you have some more specific questions it will make it easier to give you the information you need.

  • Can I export InDesign files to Adobe Illustrator for editing?

    Can I export InDesign files to Adobe Illustrator for editing? I am not familiar with InDesign, but I am familiar with Illustrator.  I have CS6.  Hope someone can help.  I have a large Orientation Booklet that needs updating and do not have the time to get tutored in InDesign.

    No.
    The closest you’ll get is a PDF and Illustrator is not a general purpose PDF editor.
    Good luck.

  • What is the best adobe product to build an HD website moving background?

    I want to design a High Definition moving background for my website.  What would be the best adobe product to use?  I tried After Effects but the quality lowers when i integrate it.

    ... as with anything, you have to ask what the purpose of the 'web application' is: are you developing a portal system, a data collection form with or without reporting capabilities, logins, accounts, etc. - or an internal web application meant to handle simple business tasks with small amounts of data?
    The Oracle product offerings can run from simple (APEX) to more complex cases (ADF, WebCenter Framework, etc.) - it all depends on what you're trying to accomplish.
    A good place to start would be just to download the JDeveloper IDE - JDeveloper supports a really wide array of Oracle technologies so you can get a feel for what might be the best 'tool' for your use case.... and JDeveloper even supports a number of standard web app approaches (e.g. Apache Struts) if you're familiar with those kind of tools.

  • Is there any way a Student could get adobe products for free?

    Is there any way a Student could get adobe products for free? For Educational Purposes?

    You can rent the Creative Cloud software for about $30/month.
    I don't know if a Student discount is availabe for CS 6 - I couldn't find that info on the web site.
    Adobe never has given students free software, and why should they? The folks at adobe don't work for free.
    They already offer fully functional progams at a deep discount to students, who can use them for whatever purpsose they want. That should be enough.
