Can I change layer order in PDF?

Acrobat 9 pro: I'm doing a complicated map with layers in PDF format. I found a merge command to merge layers, which is cool. But better option for me is to change layer order, and possibly create new folders within PDF. Is this possible with Acrobat 9 pro?

You can't, but "sub level layers" don't exist in Acrobat. OCGs exist in a single stack, though their NAMES can be grouped in the sidebar panel to make it appear they're in multiple levels. InDesign can create groups like that, Illustrator cannot, and Acrobat can't create them via the UI - however the names in the sidebar are NOT required to match the layer stack in the file, either in order or structure. You can use JavaScript to build the OCGorder array, including any sub-levels you want, and store it in the file.
See the Acrobat JavaScript documentation on the setOCGOrder() function for help and a simple example of populating the array. Groups are created by putting an array within an array, just like any other tree of data.

    How can I change the order of the songs listed in a playlist?

    Hello Pokerplayer62,
    In order to update the order of items in your playlists on the iPod Nano, you have to update them on the computer, and then sync the updated playlists to your device.
    From the iPod Nano User guide here: http://manuals.info.apple.com/en_us/ipod_nano_features_guide.pdf
    To set iTunes to update iPod nano automatically with selected playlists:
    Open iTunes and select iPod nano in the Source list. Click the Options button and click Music.
    Select “Automatically update selected playlists only.” Select the playlists you want.
    All the best,
    Sterling

  • Can I change the order of lines in a drop-down menu?

    Can I change the order of items on a drop-down menu? Specifically, the "open" menu that comes up when I right-click on a link.
    Putting "open in new tab" on top of "in new window" makes sense, of course, since it is used more often. But I do a lot of surfing, and had the old position in muscle memory. Re-training my brain to click on the first line instead of the second is taking a long time, and makes me grumbly.
    I'd love to put it back to the old order. Can I? and, if so, how do I do it? (Please give me detailed instructions, IOW, please assume I am a complete simpleton, because sometimes I am.)
    HP G62 w/ Win 7 home premium. If it matters, it's 64-bit.
    And my old desktop, which has, yech, Vista. (I haven't upgraded it to F4 yet.)
    Thanks,
    Roo

    Where is that drop-down list, on a webpage?
    Please provide a screenshot of that issue. <br />
    https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/how-do-i-create-screenshot-my-problem <br />
    It is best to use a compressed image type like PNG or JPG to save the screenshot and make sure that you do not exceed a maximum file size of 1 MB.
    Then use the '''Browse ....''' button below the '''''Post a Reply''''' text box to upload the screenshot.

  • How can I change the order of phone numbers in a contact?

    I have contacts that have more than one phone number (I am sure we all have those in this day and age). The importance of the phone numbers varies over time and I want to have the most important one as first on the list. How can I change the order that phone numbers are displayed within a contact?
    Thanks for any help.

    Currently, the order in which the phone numbers appear (in a contact) is dependent on the sequence to which you enter them. There is no way to change that order other than re-entering them in the desired order.

  • How can I change the order of photos within an event?

    iPhoto o9 won't let me change the order of photos within a single event- really annoying! I tried to view photos then click manual sort- but when I look back at the event it is not in the right order. what's wrong? Or can I even do this?

    Yes you can do that - IF you go through and assign titles to every photo
    You also can change the date/time on photo and iPhoto will then sort them in the new order
    And you could assign unique key words to each photo such that the sort order is what you want and sort by key word
    But you can not change the order in the sense most people mean - grab a photo and move it to a new location in an event
    So yes you are right

  • How can i change the size of PDF files ?

    how can i change the size of PDF files? when i convert documents in the acrobat browser it seems the files become larger then normal pdf files, this is, i compare with other files that people send to me and i realise that they are smaller than my converted files, even if they have more pages.

    A lot depends on the form of the PDF. Is it graphics, a scan of a text file, pure text, or other? What version of Acrobat are you working with.
    You can do a save as to get a WORD file, but do not expect great results. The ability to get a decent WORD file depends on what the form of PDF you are working from. If it was created from WORD with tags and all, you might get good results. If not, you might get a lot of messed up results.
    Explain what you are starting with and your ultimate goal. Also check the audit of the file (should be under PDF Optimize) to see where the file information is concentrated (text, fonts, graphics, other).

  • How can I change the order in which songs appear in my iTunes Music Library?

    How can I change the order in which songs appear in my iTunes Music Library?

    Kay,
    If you are looking at the entire music library ("Music") you can sort by any of the columns by clicking the column header.  If there is a column you can't see, enable it by going to View > View Options.
    Within a playlist, you can do the same, and in addition you can click above the column of sequence numbers, which will then allow you to drag tracks up or down to get any order you wish.
