Changing text in pdf

I have a resume in a pdf form and cant change the text in it, very new to Mac but having a real problem with this , can anyone help please ??

It would be really easy to change in Pages, because Pages is part Word Processor and part Page-Layout program. A resumé is one of those documents you end up fiddling with the position of the text, then fiddling with the text, ... , until you get it just right.
I hate so suggest it, but could you re-type it in Pages? It is supposed to be only about a page, so that should not be too onerous.
EDIT: There ARE solutions that would allow you to change the pdf file directly, but most are after-market and some cost a bit of money.

How to change text in PDF doc. which is a musical score

Hello,
I'm new here, so please excuse me if I do or say something I shouldn't.
I need to change the words in a musical score because the font is too small. OCR recognition doesn"t work because there are illustrations that are different from images or text... Is there a way to get in there and make the changes I need to do?
Any help greatly appreciated.

Thanks for the reply, but I have Adobe Reader 9 Pro. Will it still not
work ?

Changing the seeded rdf report output from text to PDF

Hi All,
I am trying to change the seeded report "Print Requisition Report" output from text to PDF. I changed the output format in the concurrent program definition from text to pdf. The report is now getting displayed in pdf format, but the alignment of the fields are changed. The output is not printing as it was printing while in the text output format. The output looks very sloppy, with uneven fonts and too much of text wrapping.
I tried some formatting and fields are somehow getting displayed but doesnt look in proper format. I am not able to change the font style in the report builder 6i, even if i change it is printing in the same font style with uneven font size. I think reducing the font size might help, but i am unable to change.We are on 11.5.10.2. Please provide your valuable suggestions on how to go about.
Thanks
Sarvesh

Hi Hussein,
Thanks for the information. After the adjustments in the layout and the font change the report is now getting displayed without any clipping when clicked on view output. But when the same report is printed some characters on the left and and right side is getting clipped. Please help on how to solve this issue.
Thanks,
Sarvesh

How do I change text in a pdf file

How do I change text and info on a pdf file?

Using Acrobat XI Pro --

If the PDF page content is the image of text from a scanner use Acrobat's ClearScan to provide an OCR output that the tool can work on.

I would try Acrobat out, you can't do that in Adobe Reader.

How do you change text on a PDF file

How do you change text on a PDF file

If at all possible, you don't. You get the original (pre-PDF file), you edit that.
Adobe Acrobat has some very limited facilities which sometimes allow very simple text edits to PDF (e.g. change a phone number).

I am not able to modify the text in pdf output file using pdf editor

Hi,
We have upgrade the xml 5.6.1 in server level. After upgrading this, we are not able to modify the pdf output file. Previously we used to modify text and delete text in pdf file which is generated by oracle Application. As of now we cann't upgrade higher version. Can you suggest what to do?.

Check the xdo configuration file option in the user guides. There should be options that allow / disallow modifying text specifically. If you are in EBS, you should be able to change the configuration file options from the XML Publisher Administrator UI.

Change photos from PDF format to Jpeg

how do I change photos from PDF format to Jpeg?

Welcome to Apple Support Communities.
Open the existing pdf file with Preview.
In preview, select File, Save As, and click on the Format window to change PDF to JPEG.
Then click the Save button.
Quality may suffer in the translation from one format to another.
In a quick test, changing Quality to 'Best' and Resolution to 300 dpi, the text in my sample page was crisp, but the original photo area was very pixelated.
The original image in the pdf file was also pixelated when viewed at 100%
A portion of the test image and text at shown at 100%. (Click on the image to view full size):

How to remove the warning "do you want to save changes to investigation.pdf before closing"

Issue: To remove the warning "do you want to save changes to investigation.pdf before closing"
I have created a XFA pdf file(using LC Designer 8.2) to display this issue
I am not able to attached the PDF. Without attaching the pdf it would be difficult to explain.
click event js:
function activateUser() {
var PDFVersion=xfa.host.variation+xfa.host.version;
xfa.host.messageBox("button click event registered");
xfa.form.form1.sendForm.welcomeMsg.presence = "invisible";
xfa.form.form1.sendForm.successMsg.presence = "visible";
event.target.dirty=false;
docReady event js:
function displayInfo(){
var res =xfa.host.variation;//Added this line to display the successMsg
//xfa.host.messageBox("docReady event registered");
xfa.form.form1.sendForm.welcomeMsg.presence = "visible";
xfa.form.form1.sendForm.successMsg.presence = "invisible";
docClose event js:
xfa.host.messageBox("docClose event registered");
event.target.dirty=false;
Steps to get the warning:
1) Open the attached pdf using Acrobat Professional.
2) Click the Confirm Enrollment" button
3) Now close the document & the acrobat gives a warning "do you want to save changes to investigation.pdf before closing"
Summary of the XFA pdf:
It has two text fileds. On docReady event field A is made visisble & field B is made invisible.
On button click event the field A is made invisisble & field B is made visible.
On closing the pdf it should not throw this warning message.
My Efforts:
1) Found a property in adobe js docs.
       event.target.dirty=false;
It doesn't solve the problem.
2) I tried to put this logic in almost all the events listed in designer but I am not able to resolve the issue.
Please help me resolve this issue.

I tried putting the below 2 lines of code at the end of button click event & docClose event.
      event.target.dirty=false;
      event.target.requiresFullSave=false;
It still gives the warning.
Also I tried to found out the line of code which is making the pdf dirty.
xfa.host.messageBox("is doc dirty (before displayInfo's visible-invisible work): " + event.target.dirty);
xfa.form.form1.sendForm.welcomeMsg.presence = "visible";
xfa.form.form1.sendForm.successMsg.presence = "invisible";
xfa.host.messageBox("is doc dirty (after displayInfo's visible-invisible work): " + event.target.dirty);
The doc got dirty when the successMsg field is made invisible.
Problem I am trying to solve is:
     To display a welcome message before user action and after user action wants to display a success message.
     I follwed the visible & invisible approach & it wokred but gives me a warning on doc close.(Highly imp to avoid it)
Is there any other approach I could follow here.

Acrobat XI Pro Mac: Changing Text Color moves Text within Paragraph

Dear Acrobat Experts!
I've been using Acrobat Pro for over a decade now (Win and Mac) - but Acrobat XI Pro Mac shows some behavior I cannot deal with:
When I'm changing text color of say a couple of words within a paragraph, usually the formatting changes and text is being moved/shifted. It looks like the text with altered color requires more space and consequently the following words are shifted which very often ruins the whole formatting. This makes Acrobat XI for me nearly unusable, I had never a behavior like this in former Acrobat versions (Win or Mac).
I cannot believe that this is "normal" - so what's the mistake I'm making? For illustration please see the two screenshots I included.
I'm looking forward to your helpful comments!
Oliver

Hi Sukrit!
Thanks for your assistance.
This is the first and only Acrobat version ever I had this problem with. I am running Acrobat Version 11.0.10 under Mac OS X 10.10.3 Yosemite on a MacBook Pro 15" Retina display. I am working on Mac only since Acrobat Pro 7 - the versions before were Windows.
So I cannot comment on Acrobat XI Pro Win.
This is happening with all of my PDF docs - regardless of origin (textbook, scientific journal, or PDFs I generated by myself as export from office applications etc.).
The only difference is the amount of changes to the formatting (shifting of text).
To illustrate my workflow I generated a screencast and uploaded it here:
<Dropbox - Acrobat_XI_Pro_Mac_3.mp4>
Looking forward to hear from you again!

Acrobat Pro X changing text to boxes when saving

Have a fully patched Pro X installation on a Win XP machine. Working with a PDF created outside our company. If we make minor changes to the PDF, no matter what they are, and try to save, some of the text is changed to "boxes" similar to how a print job looks when using bad drivers. Only a specific font is changed - all other text saves normally. What would cause this?

I am having the same problem with a pdf I created from a Word document. I am using a Mac and Adobe XI. There are no images missing and the xs-in-boxes aren't even quite aligned with the text. They also only happen erratically to text that was originally in Word and also to text that I edit in the pdf. They can be deleted with some care but I am concerned that I keep discovering new ones every time I save the document, close it and reopen it. I am working in Archer Book and it is embedded in the pdf.

How can I change text to a document?

how can I change text to a document?

Hi littleei54,
I'm not sure that I follow. Would you like to edit text in a PDF (that requires Acrobat)? Or, do you want to convert a text file to PDF? Please provide a little more information and we will get you pointed in the right direction.
Best,

Can't change text once I've finalized it!

I've been using Photoshop for years, so I know all the basics. And I've never run into this before. I created a document with text boxes and images. Everything was fine to that point. But when I went back to re-word the text boxes and change text color, I could not do it. I tried everything: be sure that layer is selected, be sure I have the type tool enabled, and click somewhere in the existing text.
Nothing doing. No matter what I did, it insisted on starting a new text layer. I could not access the text itself to change it.
I could transform it or move it but it will not let me change the text itself or the text color.
I'm using the PS cloud version and running Windows 7.
I ran into this a few weeks ago, and rebooting my computer solved the problem -- or so I thought. Apparently it didn't solve it permanently.
Help, please! This was due yesterday and my client is understandably not amused.
Thanks.

Now I can change text in any text box except the one titled "spinetext", which is highlighted in the layers panel. Obviously I'm doing something wrong, but I've designed a lot of these covers, and never had trouble changing the spine text before.
I finally had to recreate that layer in a new document and import it into this one -- but the text remains unchangeable in this layer.
(For what it's worth, "Layer 1" is the template, which I turn off when I have inserted all the elements, so it has nothing to do with this layer.)
Thanks for your help!
