Not possible.

Can I edit anything in a pdf using Acrobat XI Pro?

Can I edit anything in a pdf using Acrobat XI Pro?

And the degree of effective editing may be an issue. Editing is not a recommended task in Acrobat, but instead edit in the original doc and recreate the PDF.

How can I export from Excel to pdf using Acrobat Std to achieve uniform page size throughout the whole pdf document?

After exporting the whole workbook to a single pdf file, page sizes are inconsistent. When viewing the document in full screen, some pages show up as 25% zoomed, others as 34%. I could re-print the exported pdf file to pdf in Acrobat Std, and that way I could get the same page size throughout the document, but then I loose my bookmarks, which I don't want.
I have already set the page size to A4 in Excel, but that's not where my problem lies. any help, hint is appreciated.

A good place to start is Karl Heinz Kremer's blog, where he has a few examples:

Can't convert files to pdf using Acrobat 8 Standard or 9 Pro

I am having a major problem. I have tried converting both Word 2003 and Excel 2003 documents to pdf using Acrobat 8 Standard (I can't recall which version because I uninstalled and installed a trial version of Acrobat 9 Pro) and Acrobat 9 Pro. I have tried to convert directly from the open document and through Acrobat using create from file. In every instance the process starts and then stops after a few moments. When I try the conversion from within Acrobat, I get the following error message: " Pdf conversion failed, please correct the error and retry." When I try the conversion directly from Word or Excel, the conversion starts, stiops suddenly and gives no error message. I have had Acrobat 8 Standard installed for a couple of years. It worked fine on this computer until the problem started a week ago or so. There have been no software or hardware changes that woudl trigger suspicion.
I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling the 8 Standard version. I have uninstalled the 8 Standard version and installed the 9 Pro trial version. I have run the repair module on both versions. I'm sure it is something simple but I just can't figure out what the "error" is that I need to "correct". Any suggestions?
As an aside, I have several Adobe programs (Photoshop CS5, Contribute 3 and Acrobat), all of them expensive. Their business model of offering no unpaid support (even for this type of problem) is one reason I hate Adobe more than Microsoft... but I rant.

When you uninstalled, you should have used the MS Installer Cleanup utility. It cleans up a lot of the junk left over in the registry. You should have also deleted the Acrobat folder. Then you would reinstall. You did not indicate your OS and it may be that you need to update the AA8 to get it to work correctly. Also, the installs and uninstalls can mess up your registration process if you are not careful. If you uninstall the AA9 trial, you will not be able to reinstall it for use. At this point, I can only suggest you do a repair of your installation and be sure you have all of the updates.

Hi Rodney
Welcome to Apple Discussions
This sounds like one of those "oddities", contributed to by a few sources.
I can clear the Safari cache files as a temporary solution, but I encounter the same difficulties with the “problematic” files once they have been opened again.
Wondering if you disabled the Safari Cache would the refresh function work correctly? As a test you can disable the Safari Cache by Emptying the Cache first via the Safari menu, then Quit Safari. Now go to the Finder>Your User Library>Caches>Safari. Single click on the Safari folder, then Apple Key + I to open Info panel. There, check the "locked" box. This prevents further additions to the cache. The downside, you lose your ability to upload images etc. within Safari (my cache is disabled, so I use Firefox for the uploads).
Then restart Safari. Try the PDF from within Safari.

How do I create a PDF using Acrobat 7.0 in Windows 8 from a Visio drawing on a 64-bit system

I used to be able to create a PDF using Acrobat 7.0 from a Visio drawing in XP. Now I'm running a 64-bit system, no Adobe printer can be installed, and it is unsupported. Help?

On a 32-bit system, there is a workaround. I do not think it is possible to get AA7 to work on a 64-bit system (no one has reported success and only 1 has suggested success with AA8). You may be able to print to a PS file and then open that in Distiller. I suspect that is the only way and you will have to find a decent PS printer driver to do it. I suspect the printer driver (and associated AcroTray) will not work in a 64-bit Win8 -- Acrobat and Distiller may.

When I print to PDF using Acrobat 11 Pro from any application the acrobat Reader does not launch automatically. Associations are correct. Happens from Chrome, IE, Word, Excel, Powerpoint. Previously had deskPDF installed but uninstalled correctly. Can't find a preference setting for the auto launch. Thx for your help, Bruce

A simple way is to flatten the form fields, which converts the field appearances to regular page contents. You can do this with JavaScript or PDF Optimizer (Advanced > PDF Optimizer > Discard Objects > Flatten form fields). A very nice script that adds a custom menu item can be found here: http://www.uvsar.com/projects/acrobat/flattener/

Opening a PDF using Acrobat X

I would like to open a PDF using Acrobat X. I need to input boxes into my PDF form so that the form can be filled out on the computer by typing rather than having to print it out and hand write responses. I have downloaded the trial version of the Acrobat X. When I try to open the PDF with Acrobat X, it doesn't do it and I am unable to make the changes I wish. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you.

When you open the pdf it doesn't do what? If you can open Acrobat you need the form tool. If the form tool is not available under the tools panel, use View->Tools->Forms menu item to make it appear.

Reducing size of a PDF using Acrobat 9 Pro

Hello, I want to reduce the file size of a large number of pdfs which will be available for download on a website I'm building. These pdfs were created a few years ago and in most cases the fonts were converted to outlines. I want to reduce the size of the pdfs using Acrobat 9 Pro. I tried one and the size went from 2.3 Mb down to 156 Kb when I saved as an Acrobat 7. Will these be able to be viewed by anyone using Acrobat Reader. The end users will only be viewing and reading the pdfs. Thanks in advance for any responses.

If you are familar with the PDF Optimizer and how to go to it, open PDF Optimizer.
First images for a website should never be more than 150dpi.
Go to images and set, for DPI 150 for color images Grayscale and Monochrome.
Next open fonts in optimizer and look for duplicate fonts.
example:
Ariel
Ariel Bold
Ariel Bold
Ariel Italic
Courier New Bold
remove the duplicate Ariel Bold.
Many times there are 5-10 instances or more of the same Font/Font style.
Remove all duplicates.
Save as a new file you never want to save over your original in case what you end up with doesn't turn out.

Converting .docx to a pdf using Acrobat X, it says file type unsupported.

Any help, greatly appreciated.

Hello, thank you for responding.
Yes the url links start with http:

Cannot convert webpages to pdf using Acrobat X Pro with IE9 and Windows 7, worked fine until a few m

Cannot convert webpages to pdf using Acrobat X Pro with IE9 and Windows 7, worked fine until a few months and updates ago

I tried your suggestion, not knowing that the direct pdf printer would also "save as" PDF, but when I try your suggestion and use the Adobe PDF printer that is a direct creation of the PDF from the browser (IE9), instead of the "black out" areas I get when I use the "Convert to" button, I get missing blocks of the resulting PDF, and only get the first 1/4 to 1/3 of the webpage.
Just to clarify, when I said I print the webpage and then scan, that is a work around I have to do if I need a scanned version of the way a webpage appears on a particular date and time, instead of the one step process I used to be able to do when Adobe Acrobat would actually convert the webpage to a pdf without blackout areas or, if I try your suggestion, blank spots with a partial webpage. But the idea was one I had not thought of and I appreciated the thought.
Yes, Acrobat was updated, and is updated, and was working fine until a few months ago, Win 7 and Office 32 bit versions, Office 2010
