Choosing and copying in the pdf file

From the security settings of the file, I see that the pdf author has allowed the copying, but I can't choose and copy. How can I do it?

A scan is basically an image; you can't select any (or all) text on it.
The only way to get text out of a scanned image is to process it with text recognition (OCR), which is available in Acrobat or the Adobe PDF Pack service.

When you create a link to a web page in numbers and we export the PDF file, the link is offset by 3 rows. Example: if I put a link on the text in cell A1, I found the link A4. In fact, this feature becomes unusable. How can we solve this problem? Thank yo

When you create a link to a web page in numbers "Mavericks" and we export the PDF file, the link is offset by 3 rows. Example: if I put a link on the text (with Cmd-K) in cell A1, I found the link A4. In fact, this feature becomes unusable. How can we solve this problem?
Thank you.

Hi again Raja!
I did as you recommended and installed HTTPWatch and below is the outcome of that program. It is the exact string with the only exception of obfuscated servernames and portnumbers. The last part that begins with "sap_ep_baseurl=" makes me suspicious, is that part really correct? It looks like it's lacking things.
Best regards

Acrobat X doing PS to PDF conversion and can view the PDF file in the Lower version?

Hi,
I am converting the Postscript file to PDF file using Acrobat X, but the end user is having the Acrobat older version. Can we use the lower Acrobat version for the viewing? Also it's under EULA?
Thanks for looking into this.
Thanks,
KSK

If you make PDF 1.7, Acrobat 6 and later can handle the file.
If you make PDF 1.6, Acrobat 5 and later can handle the file.
A little more on EULA: this is not official, but I have seen a lot of discussion in these forums about it. It seems to be that you cannot use Acrobat (or Distiller from Acrobat) as a server process, automating creation of PDF for others without the control of an individual even on a desktop.
So, if these PostScript files are made by an individual who runs Distiller, this is fine.
If the individual puts files from anywhere into Distiller that is fine.
It is not fine if PostScript files are delivered from somewhere else and automatically processed.
It is not fine if PostScript files are made automatically on this machine and automatically delivered to the file server for others to read.
Distiller is for making files for its licensed user to read, or to share themselves manually.

Hi jackp52432917,
How was that PDF file created? Please see Will Adobe ExportPDF convert both text and form... | Adobe Community
It could be that the PDF file you're converting was created using a third-party application, and it doesn't contain all the information necessary to ensure a clean conversion. Have you had similar troubles converting other PDF files?

K1- How to copy the *.pdf file to K1 , and what dir to copy to ???

I did not install SD card into my K1 .
When I connected K1 to my PC (window XP) I saw the directories:
- Alarms.
- capture.
I had some book in *.pdf file format. I like to copy those pdf file to K1 so I can read under Adobe reader. What DIRECTORY I should copy to ?????
Best Regards.

You can put the PDF files anywhere you want, as long as you remember where you put them. Just as you'd do on a desktop operating system, like Windows or OS X, open a file manager app on your K1, and use the file manager app to navigate to your PDF file. Tap on the PDF file and Android will ask you which program (like Adobe Reader) you want to use to open it. For file managers, I like this one: https://market.android.com/details?id=com.rhmsoft.fm.hd It's ad-supported though, so there'll be a little advertisement in the corner. Or use the file manager app that is preinstalled on the K1.

What do you mean by "copy and paste a page"? What tool have you selected? Or are you just assuming you can select stuff and copy/paste as in Word?

How to upload words, exel, PDF file from the pc via itune to the iPad, and where will the uploaded file be saved? In the apps?

How to upload words, exel, PDF file from the pc via itune to the iPad, and where will the uploaded file be saved? In the apps?

You will need an app (or apps) on your iPad that is capable of reading the documents, as they will be saved with the app - if you don't have such an app then there is nothing to transfer them to or to read/access them.
One method of transferring them is toconnect your iPad to your computer's iTunes, select it's app tab, and then scroll to the bottom of it - you should the apps That you've got that are capable of file-sharing (if you've got any). Selecting/high-lighting one of them should then allow you to add files to it via the box to the right of it.
An alternative way to get the documents onto your iPad is if the app that you want to transfer them to has a wifi setting, which will then allow you to transfer the documents wirelessly. You can also send the documents to yourself as attachments and then use Mail's 'open in' facility to copy them into your chosen app.
Edit : more info on file sharing from the manual :
File Sharing lets you transfer files between iPad and your computer. You can share files created with a compatible app and saved in a supported format.
Apps that support file sharing appear in the File Sharing Apps list in iTunes. For each app, the Files list shows the documents that are on iPad. See the app’s documentation for how it shares files; not all apps support this feature.
Connect iPad to your computer.
In iTunes, select iPad in the Devices list, then click Apps at the top of the screen.
In the File Sharing section, select an app from the list on the left.
On the right, select the file you want to transfer, then click “Save to” and choose a destination on your computer.
Transfer a file from your computer to iPad:
Connect iPad to your computer.
In iTunes, select iPad in the Devices list, then click Apps at the top of the screen.
In the File Sharing section, click Add.
Select a file, then click Choose (Mac) or OK (PC).
The file is transferred to your device and can be opened using an app that supports that file type. To transfer more than one file, select each additional file.
Delete a file from iPad: Select the file in the Files list, then tap Delete.

I have Windows 98 and need Acrobat to open up the pdf files for 5.0

I have the old system, Windows 98 and presently have the free Adobe 5.0 version on my Compaq Presario Computer, and it is a 5242 model desktop.
I have inadvertanly switched over to Compaq Carbon Copy 32 Version 5.0 but since, have uninstalled it and now, on each of what was the pdf files initially of which I have, of which is at least 16 or more, on each of those files, an error message comes up and says "PROGRAM NOT FOUND," and states the following: "Windows cannot find CCW32EXE. This program is needed for opening the pdf files." And then it has a dialogue box with the computer operational symbol in it as C:\ and then it wants me to locate it. I cannot locate it through the "auto" because, this sytem being so old, doesn't have a magnifying glass or a "search" tool to do this in the "My Computer Icon on the Desktop as the Compaq people wanted me to do. I would have to do this manually. I have already talked to the Compaq people on their chat line and because of this, they said they couldn't help me with this problem and referred me over to you.
I've tried to find a download for 5.0, though I really don't think I need one since it is currently installed. I believe the proper way to fix this is to just convert the CCW32EXE over to the Acrobat pdf files and have those files opened and should open up all of my 15 or so files altogether at the same time because they all converted over to something else at the same time prior.
Are you able to help me?
But I believe to alleviate this problem, if you could just give me the information to be able to open up the pdf files to 5.0 and find out what download I may pursue, it might be able to correct this problem. I already have the 5.0 Acrobat installed, however.

Hi Aandi,
I have followed your directions and I have the old system of Windows 98, so I had to go to "programs" and come up to Acrobat 5.0 and once in there, all of the Window there is greyed out, although I can still go to the tool bars above in it. I went to "file" and went to "open" and from there, I received an "open" window with a dialogue box in it and in that dialogue box as I scrolled down, it wants me to put in there, one of the following, "desktop," "my documents," "3 1/2 floppy [A:]," "[C:]," "system _save [D:]," ""[E:," "[F:]," ete; of these which do I pick in the "open" dialogue box? and down at the bottom, is the FILE NAME and what do I put in there? Just below that, it has the FILES OF TYPE which has there Adobe pdf Files, in it's dialogue box. I hit these, but I still get an error message of which basically says, "NOT FOUND, please put in proper file name given." And I don't know actually where it is given.
So, as you see, I am a novice in all of this and you can contact me at my e mail address which is [email protected]
and should a reply be needed, I'll come back to the forum for a reply.
I really need to open up the Adobe 5.0 pdf files. All of the pdf files, simultaneously went over to Compaq Carbon Copy 32 of which I since, uninstalled. But I really need to get back and open the Adobe 5.0 pdf files.
And I want to thank you for your support and eagerly awaiting your help.
Thanks,
Now, I did do one of the following: I went to C: which came to Acobat 3 and I hit that which came to Reader and I hit that which came to the following: ACROBAT which gave me ACTIVE X - BROWSER - FONTS - HELP - OPTIONAL - PLUG-INS

I need to send an email where the recipient opens the PDF file with a password, can anybody help me and show me how to do that

Hello, I am trying to send an email where the recipient opens the PDF file with a password, can anybody show me how to do that

Hi surez,
To password protect a PDF file, you need to use Acrobat. If you don't have Acrobat, you can try it for free for 30 days. See www.adobe.com/products/acrobat.html for more information.
In Acrobat, you choose File > Properties when the document is open, and then click the Security tab to set up a password.
Please let us know how it goes.

I would like to cut and paste information from a word file onto a pdf file, as well as draw lines onto the pdf file. How can I accomplish that task? Is there software I can purchase?

I would like to cut and paste information from a word file onto a pdf file, as well as draw lines onto the pdf file. How can I accomplish that task? Is there software I can purchase?

Hi jgallu7382,
The latter is easily accomplished using the Drawing Markup tools, which are available in both the free Adobe Reader, and in Acrobat. Copying/pasting text into the PDF is something that you could do using the editing tools that are available only in Acrobat. Note, however, that Acrobat isn't intended to be a text-editing application, so editing there won't be as robust as in an application designed specifically for that purpose. (It's also worth mentioning that you won't be able to alter a PDF if it has document permissions applied that would prevent you from doing so.)
I hope that answers your questions.
Best,
Sara

Can I edit with Smart Print the same way I could with Smartweb Printing and then save as PDF files.

With Vista basic and SmartWeb Printing you had the option to edit your pages and then to save or print them in the PDF format. This way you could customise various pages pages, save them to a file and then reopen the whole file to see if you wanted to make any further changes before printing the final copy.

Maybe you don't need that. I prefer using Apple's Image Capture for scanning.
Right now I am working on scanning documents into PDFs. The Canon software lets me create multipage PDFs which is something I've been wanting to do. My question is, is it best to scan images as JPEGs and then save them as a multipage PDF or is it best to scan into PDF directly (which the scanner seems to offer as well) and then save as a multipage PDF? I'm thinking in terms of the best optimization of file size vs. image quality and things like that.
Let the software do it for you. That will be fewer steps for you. Image-based PDFs are going to be large. There is no way around that. If they are too large, you can use Preview's Save As feature and play around with the Quartz Filter.
Is the scanner actually doing anything differently when scanning into JPEG vs. PDF? Or is the scanning all the same and it's just the saving of the file that is different?
Scans are scans. The JPEG file format is lossly and will look worse than other types. If you are scanning in photographs, the JPEGs will look good. If you are scanning in crisp text, JPEGS will have lots of artifacts and look bad.
In general what dpi setting is usually sufficient to use to scan a basic text document without taking up too much file space?
I pretty much always keep it at 300 unless I need something special or when the original is really small and I intend to blow it up.

I am getting messages that I can't download and read .pdf files since I have the wrong Adobe reader. I know about their security disasters of course, but I downloaded the latest version of Adobe Reader from the Adobe web site and I have other ,pdf file readers as well, and for some reason they won't work either. I have 5 computers running top end processors and RAM. By this I mean I have one, this one which I am using that has an AMD Phenom Black 3.2 Quad-core with 8 GBs of Corsair top DDR2 RAM, my other two AMD have either an Athlon II triple core with 4 GBs of DDR2 Corsair RAM, one with the Phenom X4 965 3.4 GHz Quad-core with 8 GBs of their best DDR2 RAM, and two Intels with the i7 920 Processors using the triple channel 1366 socket processors and one with 8 GBs of low latency DDR3 RAM and the other with 4 GBs of the same RAM. I am getting the message on this one, which has a fresh install of XP Pro X64 operating system, as do the other 4 as well. I have run Avast Business Pro Anti-virus on this one, which I am getting the message on with a single result which I deleted, and also both Spybot Search and Destroy, which came back clean as well as Malwarebytes Antimalware, which got a lot of tracing cookies now removed, and SuperAntiSpware which also found a few cookies also now deleted. Can you tell me what I need to do to get these files to show as .pdf files rather than as a clean blank page. One other issue is that I wish to know how to turn off my downloads so they are saved and Mozilla will give me the option of returning them instead of me losing them all together as it does now. Thanks for your assistance. If there is another Adobe reader I should download and install, could you provide me with the link to it? I appreciate your assistance here

I have an iPad 2, and I am sending PDF file to my iPad, via a Hotmail email. But, the PDF arrives to the iPad in Mail already opended, as a picture on the bottom of the email. Is there a way to prevent it from auto open, so I can open with iBooks instead?

I have an iPad 2, and I am sending PDF files to my iPad, via a Hotmail account. But, the PDF arrives to the iPad Mail account already opened at the bottom of the email. Is there a way to prevent this auto-opening of the PDF. I've seen screen shots with the box, and PDF listed inside the box, but mine open automatically. I want to get them into iBooks...?

I am having the same problem and it is even bigger.
When opening a 1-page PDF in iBooks and sending it via mail it is sent inline as preview, but the recipient cannot open the file anymore. Also on iPad and iPhone there is no "open in" possible.
Somehow the mail app does destroy the file. What is going wrong?
