Can't paste text anymore from Acrobat Pro to Indesign CS3

Since upgrading to Acrobat Pro, I can't copy and paste text into Indesign CS3 or 4 which is included in pdfs as NOTES. I can, however, copy and paste the regular content in the Acrobat document. After I copy the text from the notes, I go to paste it into Indesign and all I get is a blinking cursor. I can copy and paste from Acrobat 7. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

I've seen no solutions to this issue thus far. I will post my solutions to this issue here and on the other thread I found with the same problem.
Here's how I resolved the issue. In InDesign under Preferences go to:
Clipboard Handling>"When Pasting Text and Tables from Other Applications"/Paste: (and choose the "all information" option)
If you have the "Text Only" option selected, this might be the issue. After checking "All Information" my issue was resolved.

  • How can I make a pdf from a frame in Indesign CS3

    Is it possible to make a pdf-file from a selected frame in a Indesign-document?
    Way, way back we were able to do this in Quark Xpress by using a plugin.
    Is there a plugin like this available for Indesign (CS3) ?
    Help would be very much appreciated.

  • Garbled text printing from Acrobat pro 11.0.09

    I tried printing a PDF invoice from one of my suppliers yesterday and though they have printed fine in the past, suddenly all the text that is set in Arial Narrow is printing as random and squashed symbols and characters. I've checked and I have Arial Narrow active under Suitcase Fusion 5,  but it is listed as embedded anyway in the document so that shouldn't be an issue. It prints fine if I open in Preview and of course if I select print as image in the print dialogue. I'm using an Epson AL C2800. Anyone any thoughts on what might be causing this? It will be a pain to have to select print as image every time I get a document from these people?

    Hi Dov and thanks for your speedy reply. I've tried downloading the latest driver for the AL C2800 which reports on Epson's site as 7.10. However after installing The printer utility still reports v 17.04 and printing still has garbled text.
    Using PCL mode doesn't seem to make any difference either. I assume I'm doing this correctly ny selecting PCL as an portion from the printer menu - or do I have to download a separate driver? I tried sending you a message but I don't know how to send one of the pdf files in question. Then I click on attach an image it rejects a pdf file. So how do i get a copy of the file to you?
    What is so strange is that everything worked fine a couple of weeks ago when I last printed one of these documents. The only conscious change to my system or printer is changing a leaking black printer cartridge a couple of days ago, installing the MS Onedrive app (and then deleting as it seems pretty useless), activating a couple of system fonts to handle foreign language/symbol encoding and updating a couple of minor apps - Fetch and an update to Suitcase Fusion 5 (I tried quitting Suitcase through I know it's not the culprit as the font is embedded - but I still get the garbled text)

  • I can't read the text in my Acrobat pro fill forms fields

    I used to be able to render text with my acrobat pro, now the function is missing.  I can't read what people put in the fields I create in my forms if they don't fill it out with acrobat when they email them back.  This didn't used to be the case. One month ago I could render the text.  I had help from a tech at Adobe about a year ago on this and he changed my acrobat somehow so now I can't update it because it's been "modified".  How can I make my text visible?   Thanks!

  • Can't Duplex print from Acrobat Pro 9.3.2 to Epson Artisan 800

    I can not duplex Print from Acrobat Pro 9.3.2 to an Epson Artisan 800.
    I an running it from a MacBook Pro with OSX 10.6.3
    I called Epson support and they could not help me.
    However they suggested that I try using Adobe Reader.
    Well that works OK if I choose to print the document as an image, but I would prefer to just be able to work within Acrobat Pro.
    Does anyone outthere have any settings within Acrobat Pro that would enable duplex printing?
    Thanks

  • Why can't I download trial for Acrobat Pro on my Mac?

    Why can't I download trial for Acrobat Pro on my Mac?  I get an error message.  I click the download:  "Install Adobe Download Assistant", then click on it, see Adobe AIR application instaler, then get "Sorry, and error has occurred.  This application cannot be installed because this installer has been mis-configured. Please contact the application author for assistance."   If I knew who the application author was, I'd contact him!  Thanks, Pete

    Hey PetaPete,
    There are some known issues when downloading Adobe Download Assistant which you can find at:
    Troubleshoot Adobe Download Assistant
    So, you might alternatively need to try downloading Acrobat from the link given below:
    http://prodesigntools.com/adobe-acrobat-xi-pro-standard-reader-direct-download-links.html
    Note:
    1) You need to stay on the Adobe trial page for the respective product that you're downloading. You should be signed in.
    2) Copy/ Paste trial link for the files that you're downloading from Prodesigntools on to the address bar of Adobe trial page and hit enter.

  • How can I add system font to Acrobat Pro X?

    I tried to use "Edit Document Text" Function. There is an error pop-up as " All or part of the selection has no available system font. You cannot add or delete text using the currently selected font.". How can I add system font to Acrobat Pro X?

    It is referring to the fonts installed on your computer - to edit text within a PDF you must have the same font installed (i.e. one with the same PostScript name). Acrobat doesn't have a separate way to load fonts, you install them in the normal way through your operating system control panel after downloading/purchasing the font files from a vendor.

  • HUGE BUG printing Booklet from Acrobat Pro 11.0.10

    I spent an hour chatting with Adobe support in India. They could not solve this issue.
    I submitted a BUG REPORT at Adobe - Feature Request/Bug Report Form
    Here is the BUG Report:
    ******BUG******
    Concise problem statement:
    Steps to reproduce bug:
    1. Export individual pages from InDesign as pdf (16-page booklet, each individual page is 5-1/2" x 8-1/2")
    2. Open pdf in Acrobat Pro 11.0.10
    3. Choose actual size, then choose booklet, and print. (printer contains letter-size paper, and page set-up is set to 100% scale.)
    Results: The printed booklet is the WRONG SIZE! The pagination is correct as usual, but each individual page is being REDUCED, and now each page image is too small, and there is now a GAP between pages, and the entire booklet is useless. If you can, please see case number: 0186447426: support chat: it covers everything we have tried so far ... (We tried everything they could think of, but all attempts failed.) This bug was introduced somewhere along the line with Yosemite.
    Expected results: As usual, when printing booklets from Acrobat Pro, we expect the print to be the right size, the same size as the InDesign doc, and as it has been printed previously by Acrobat Pro prior to Yosemite. Thanks for fixing this disaster of a bug. Please contact me if you need further info, copies of the individual page pdf, etc.
    I am literally stuck. I can go through the laborious process of using InDesign to "print booklet" to a postscript file and use Distiller to make the booklet pdf, but under Yosemite, I am prevented from installing print drivers unless that printer is locally available on my network. Unfortunately, the printer is located at my client's place of business.
    I realize there is typically a leap-frog effect between operating system updates, hardware, and application updates, but combined with other Yosemite issues, this Acrobat Pro bug is killing my business.

    DrStrik9 (sounds a bit poisonous to me!),
    The issue, regrettably, is that Acrobat is performing as designed. And it has nothing to do with either MacOS 10.10 or anything new or different with Acrobat 11.0.10 (versus earlier versions going all the way back to the initial implementation of the booklet printing feature). And this isn't directly a printer driver issue, either! The same behaviour occurs both on MacOS and Windows.
    The problem, simply stated, is that the Booklet print option in Acrobat (and Reader) is attempting to avoid loss of content due to the paper's non-printable margins. The scaling factors in the Size print option are not utilized at all in the Booklet print option. The Booklet print option attempts to fit two logical pages of your PDF file into the printable area of each physical sheet of paper. Assuming that your printer's Letter page is defined as having a printable area of 8"x10.5" due to a 0.25" non-printable area surrounding the page, then the Booklet print option will force each of the 5.5"x8.5" pages of your PDF file into a  5.17'x8" area centered on each half of the 8.5"x11" printed sheet.
    There are three workarounds that I know of:
    (1)    Many high end printers have booklet printing capabilities in the printer or printer driver itself. Check the detailed driver options to see whether in fact your printer / printer driver does support a booklet printing option. If so, try that first. That would likely solve your problem.
    (2)    Assuming that this is a PostScript printer, edit the .PPD file for the printer you are using to to modify the specification of the Letter printable area. In the PPD file, you will see an entry similar to this:
        *ImageableArea Letter/Letter: "18 18 594 774"
    or
        *ImageableArea Letter/US Letter: "18 18 594 774"
    Edit the entry to change only the four numbers as follows:
        *ImageableArea Letter/Letter: "0 0 612 792"
    That indicates to the PostScript driver that there is no unprintable border on your pages. Then save the .PPD file. I would then suggest rebooting and then trying to print. Note that the side effect of this is that Fit and Shrink oversized pages options will not take into account the non-printable area of your printer.
    Note that a similar hack can be done with Ledger (i.e. 11"x17") page descriptions in the PPD to fix a similar issue affecting printing 8.5"x11" pages to 11"x17" sheets as booklets.
    (3)    There are some very reliable third party plugins for Acrobat that provide full advanced document imposition capabilities, creating what are known as printer flats as a new PDF file from your logical pages. There are n-up, booklet, step-and-repeat, etc. options galore in such packages. Examples include Quite Imposing and PDF Snake. I have personally used Quite Imposing for nearly 15 years for this purpose and can vouch that it works beautifully. I don't have personal experience with PDF Snake, although it is less expensive.
    Good luck and let us know if any of this helps you at all!

  • Can I paste football table from Safari into Numbers by Dec 23?

    *Can I paste a table from Safari into Numbers - and get a table?*
    Whether I use Paste or Paste Match Style (?) it just goes into one column, which is useless. Same result in Pages. But in the Appleshop demo I copied the table from Safari into Excel and it created a proper table.
    Apologies if this is already answered. I am new to Mac and to iWorks. I've only got the evaluation version of iWorks v1.0. I was going to get the full version by Xmas - but this is a real showstopper. If I can't use the spreadsheet on web tables (price comparisons, stocks, etc etc) then iWorks won't do.
    If it can't do this, are there any other solutions out there? Thanks.
    *_Problem Description_*
    1. In Safari select and Copy a table (here's the football league table http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/football/eng_prem/table/default.stm)
    2. Paste the table into Numbers - as a table (not as a single column)
    3. sort the table on descending GD

    Hello
    Some times ago, I posted a script for this kind of problem but I just discover (with your table) that I forgot a case.
    Here is a revised version which I will put soon on my iDisk.
    -- [SCRIPT Tables2Numbers_v5]
    property nbCols : "3"
    property english : true (* true= English messages, false = Messages Français *)
    property msg1 : ""
    property list1 : {}
    if msg1 = "" then my prepareMessages()
    set theDatas to (get the clipboard as text)
    if theDatas does not contain tab then
    set nbCols to text returned of (display dialog msg1 default answer nbCols)
    set nbCols to nbCols as integer
    set my list1 to paragraphs of theDatas
    set nb to count of my list1
    set nbRows to nb div nbCols
    set newDatas to ""
    repeat with i from 1 to nbRows
    repeat with j from 1 to nbCols - 1
    set newDatas to newDatas & (item (j + (i - 1) * nbCols) of my list1) & tab
    end repeat
    set newDatas to newDatas & (item (j + 1 + (i - 1) * nbCols) of my list1) & return
    end repeat
    set the clipboard to newDatas
    else
    set the clipboard to theDatas
    end if
    set my list1 to {}
    on prepareMessages()
    if english is true then
    set msg1 to "How many columns ?"
    else
    set msg1 to "Nombre de colonnes ?"
    end if
    end prepareMessages
    -- [/SCRIPT]
    If you grab your table in the clipboard after counting the columns (here 16)
    run the script
    After that you may paste the table in Numbers (or in AppleWorks)

  • How can I delete text messages from my iphone?

    Hello everyone,
    How can I delete text messages from my iphone?  I do not want to reset my iphone setting. If it is nesscary to reset my iphone setting, will I lose everything?
    Please let me know,
    Thanks,

    Just delete them. Or, do you mean beyond just deleting them? Then, you'd need to wipe the phone - select Settings > General > Reset > Erase All Content and Settings. That's a secure wipe of the iPhone contents, takes several hours (connect to AC power). You'll need to set your phone up from scratch (and erase the old backup(s) from your computer, since your SMS history is part of the backup).
