Cant save PDF as RTF due to file size

Hello,
I have bought the Adobe upgraded product to be able to convert the .PDF to .RTF format or .TXT format and when I log in or open document, I cannot send to acrobat, I cannot save to acrobat, and I cannot convert it to RTF either. It tells me the file is more than 100MB. Is there an alternate way to convert this file to RTF?

Actually you are asking in the wrong user forum. Here you have "Adobe Reader"
There is a dedicated user forum for the Acrobat.com online subscription services at: 
https://forums.adobe.com/community/acrobatdotcom  
As you speak of a 100 MB file size limit it is clear that you are not using the desktop application "Acrobat". 
The 100 MB file size limit is specific to the online subscription services.
When purchased and installed the desktop application "Acrobat" can split large PDFs to several smaller PDFs.
However, Acrobat does not have a file size limit. Consequently, with the PDF open in Acrobat XI a File - Save As Other with a selection of RTF. 
Be well...

  • Save as Reduced Size PDF and Save as Optimized PDF do not reduce the file size.  What gives?

    Save as Reduced Size PDF and Save as Optimized PDF do not reduce the file size.  What gives?  I used Acrobat 9 to do this for a long time.  I recently received new laptop loaded with with Acrobat 10 and it does not work the same.  I typically scan 8-10 pages of receipts, combine the files in Acrobat, and then optimize to reduce the size so I can upload with my expense report.  Typically, my files were reduced to 200-400 KB.  I have a 2 MB file that will not reduce at all.

    Bernd, thank you for your attempt to help but the option dialog windows do not contain the same options.  There are numerous other posts on this forum about this issue and there is no answer.  Clearly, there is an issue.  I have submitted this issue to our internal help desk.

  • Hi All, Can I access Adobe reader internal variables in my pdf? for example location, file size, creator etc.

    Hi All, Can I access Adobe reader internal variables in my pdf? for example location, file size, creator etc. I want to create a hyperlink in my pdf $Location/another.pdf?

    Thanks Gilad.
    let me rephrase my requirement. I have a group of pdf files where one pdf has hyperlinks to the other pdfs
    parent.pdf
    -- child1.pdf
    -- child2.pdf
    when I click on the child hyperlink I want the child.pdf to be displayed in another window/reader
    If I have the hyperlink as file:./child1.pdf it does not work. It needs a complete path.
    So when I create this file in MSWord first, Can I artificially create a placeholder for the directory and append the child.pdf?
    suppose the properties say Location = /tmp/pdfs/
    can I have in the hyperlink something like file:/$Location/child.pdf and when reader is used it substitutes the url
    so I get file:/tmp/pdfs/child.pdf
    Hope I explained this.
    thanks
    -Francis
    OK, let me have a very simple requirement. Can I create a pdf and when I open it
    there is one line that says - This File is in xxx directory.
    where xxx is the directory name where the file is. If I have the file in /tmp then it should say This file is in /tmp directory
    and if I copy it to /other then open it, it should say This file is in /other directory.

  • I recently loaded Mac OS X Snow Leopard and now cant save PDF files It ask me for my Owners password. Cant remember it

    I recently Loaded Mac OS X Snow Leopard 10.6.3 on my MacBook. Now I cant print or save PDF files. I am asked for my "Owners Password" I bought this mac new, 3 years ago and dont remember my Owners password only my admin. How can I fix this?
    Please Advise
    Rich

    That is your admin password. You might try this:
    To fix Home folder permissions
    Open the Terminal application in the Utilities folder.  At the command line prompt enter or paste the following command line:
    sudo chown -R `id -un`:`id -gn` ~
    Press RETURN.  You will be prompted to enter your admin password which will not be echoed.
    I would also do this:
    Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions
    Boot from your Snow Leopard Installer disc. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue button. When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the Utilities menu. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list.  In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive.  If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the installer.
    If DU reports errors it cannot fix, then you will need Disk Warrior and/or Tech Tool Pro to repair the drive. If you don't have either of them or if neither of them can fix the drive, then you will need to reformat the drive and reinstall OS X.
    And, consider downloading either Mac OS X v10.6.7 Update Combo or Mac OS X 10.6.8 Update Combo and updating the system, but only after doing the above suggestions.

  • Cant save PDF after adding comments

    Is it possible to save a PDF I have added comments to over the original file. The PDF I am currently commenting on is not read only but I get an error when I try save it over the original file.

    I am working in Windows 7. The error I get states something along the lines of " File is currently in use and cant and cant be overwritten, If I enter another file name I can save the file. It could be a number of issues not relating to adobe reader but I am just wondering if Adobe reader allows you to save commented PDFs with the same name as the original document that was opened.

  • Preview: Save as PDF while approximately keeping the file size ?

    Hello!
    I know that several good discussions took place about the way to reduce the file size when saving (as) a PDF from the application Preview.
    I tried:
    • the default poor quality "Reduce File Size" preset filter,
    • the additional filters provided by Jérôme Colas (http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=6250289)
    • the "Compress PDF Workflow 4.0" that reenables feature for Leopard (http://www.apple.com/downloads/macosx/automator/compresspdfworkflow.html)
    Has anyone come across a method to _keep in about the *original size*_ of the original Adobe PDF ?
    When saving a 3 MB PDF with Preview, I see it increase to 80 MB, so that dramatically reducing it to 40MB is not really satisfying, is it?
    Thank you in advance for any suggestion !

  • PDF Optimizer decreases resolution, increases file size

    I've noticed that the file size of my PDF files INCREASES now when I optimize them now that I've updated to version 7.0.7. The image resolution still decreases but the files increase significantly. For example, I have a 2 page document that originally was 3.2mb as a hi-resolution PDF. After I optimized it down to 72dpi for the images the file increased to 20.5mb!! I use this feature for documents that we publish on our web sites or to send a proof to a customer.
    Is this just a new bug in version 7.0.7?

    MAC G5, 1 gb RAM, OS 10.4
    Indesign CS3
    Acrobat version : at least 7.0.6 or newer (I'm not at work to verify the version)
    I'm having the same problem. Doing a SAVE AS does not fix anything.
    I have created a High Res PDF of a 56 page catalogue using Indesign CS3. I had to divide the document into two sections. The first file is 131 megs and the other 78 megs. I have to print high res for the client. Then I need to downsize the resolution so that I can send the catalogue to the client. Whether I choose PDF Optimizer or Reduce file..., the 131 megs PDF became 1.27 GB and not to mention the time wasted! This is enormous! I assure you that I have checked all settings for the PDF.
    To counter the problem, I have to do a SAVE AS POSCRIPT file. Then I reduce the size using Acrobat Distiller. The 131 megs file then became 21 megs, which is what it should have been with Optimizer.
    I don't understand what's happening with the Optimizer? It seems that there's an update version that has installed this bug. Which one? How to fix this problem? Is there anyone on this earth that knows what to do?

  • Colorsync Utility: PDF Compression vs. Reduce File Size filters

    What's the difference between these two? I used Automator to make two applications, which I think I screwed up, because they're not reducing file sizes now. 1 would make 100+ pngs into a pdf and use "reduce file size," I think. 300 MB would become 80 MB, e.g. I would then use a not-so-great PDF application called PDFStudio9 (because I lost my Acrobat DVD and couldn't get a replacement) to OCR that reduced-size pdf. At which point I would run the other application, which I think compressed the OCR'd pdf. Which would be about 40 MB at the end. But I'm not sure if that's the order of compression I used.
    So what's the difference between the two types of filters, and when would I want to use each for ultimately creating a non-titanic-sized pdf?

    Cathy,
    You have posted your question in a forum dedicated to the Final Cut Studio application Color. It is a very specialized program to grade (adjust) the color in video/film images. We know nothing regarding PDFs.
    Have you tried posting this on an Adobe support site?
    Good luck,

  • Action to save for web leaves too large file size

    HI
    In earlier versions of Photoshop I could create an action to batch save photos for the web, setting them to save as 600 by 400 and they would end up about 70kb. I could also stop the action and adjust the file size to a set size. With CS3 no matter what I do the files always end up about 500kb!!!
    Is this a bug in CS3 or do I have to do something different?
    I have to put the files on my old computer to run the action still in Photoshop 7
    thanks for any help.

    I tried to create a 1 pixel blank and it wouldn't save it, I tried a 5 pixel blank, still wouldn't save it so used the Save As and got a 40kb jpg file. Ran the Action and it ended up as 76kb.
    Created a 30 pixel blank square and it ended up 40kb too.
    Get info on the files reveals the stated file size is correct.
    I created and ran the same action on my son's intel iMac running CS3 and the same result. Tried a tiff instead of a jpg and it ended up even bigger. When paused at the Save for Web window, it says the original file is about 800 kb (the reduced size to 600 by 400 from the original image) and it predicts the final web size will be about 65 to 75kb as it should be, depending on the image. But always ends up about 500kb.
    Going through the process manually produces the correct result.
    This is getting rather frustrating!!!!!
    Would someone be able to try creating the same action on their intel mac running CS3?
    All I am doing is reducing the size of say a 3000 by 2000 pixel image to 600 by 400 pixels, applying a very small amount of unsharp mask, then saving for the web to about 70kb. I have the original images in one folder on my desktop and another folder to place the converted files into.
    thanks for any more help anyone can offer.

  • Is it possible to scipt "save for web" in a specific file size?

    The question says it all.
    i want to automatisate the last step of my work.
    it needs to save my work as a jpg in a specific folder with a maximum file size (82kb) ...
    how can i achieve this step?
    Thanks for you help

    I wanted to get snarky about doing a Forum Search before posting, because I have the feeling this has been treated more than once … but I can’t currently find the threads, either.
    As far as I can tell the task requires saving, checking the resultant file’s size, if it offends save again with different settings, check … until the requirement is met.

  • Can't Publish Due to File Size

    I'm using Captivate 4. I need to create a video demonstration using my iPad. I'm currently utilizing a screen sharing app to mirror my iPad screen on my laptop. Using this, I created a 6 minute demonstration with audio and text boxes. The file was broken into 21 slides and is huge! About 320,000 KB. What can I do to size this recroding down so that I can publish it? I've tried recording using the full motion option at 16 bit and lower resolution. Is there anything else I should be doing? I need to create about 8 videos all ranging from 5-13 minutes in length.

    My initial large recording was a total of 21 slides at 364,145.6KB with a resolution of 894 x 671. I'm using a PC with Microsoft Windows XP. The laptop has 1.18 GHz and 1.96 GB of RAM. The initial error messsage reads:
    "Your computer does not have sufficient memory resources to perform this operation. Do the following:
    - Check one or more options in the Extrenalize Resources list, and re-publish
    - Close otther applications open on your computer. You might have to close and reopen Adobe Captiavate."
    I had no other applications open at the time. The initial recording was recorded at 32 bit. So I figured perhaps changing the Full Motion Recording settings to 16 bit with a smaller SWF size would help. Any other suggestions?

  • How to make PDF file size smaller from an Illustrator file without changing the quality or size (length and width) of the file?

    Is there a way to make a 30x42 size (40 GB) Illustrator file as a PDF but make the file smaller in size (able to email to clients) with out compromising the quality of the file or the size of the file?

    If you are working in RGB you can embed a colour profile. Embed ICC Profiles is one of the Acrobat save options. It will increase files size dramatically.
    When you save your pdf you can choose the compression method for placed images. Default is ZIP which is really no compression at all for pixel images. Instead you should opt for JPG compression (of varying degree according to how sensitive the images are to compression).
    You should also examine the other Acrobat save options. To minimize file size you should not have any of the options checked (Preserve Illustrator Editing Capability, Embed page Thumbnails etc. etc.).
    40 gigabytes for a file like the one you show is ridiculous. Did you maybe embed the placed images? If so, don’t. Keep them linked unless you really need to embed them.
