Convert PDF to GIF

I want to convert a PDF to Gif, However I see a SAVEAS command that can save to png, tif, jpg & even jp2, but not gif.... dhuuuhh? why is that. So how do i convert to gif then?
Thanks

You can't directly from Acrobat. GIF has many limitations that do not lend it as an effective output format for PDFs. Best option, if GIF is a requirement (although there is no reason one of the other formats wouldn't work) would be to output to a low-loss or lossless format like TIF and then use a 3rd party library to convert from that format to GIF.
> dhuuuhh? why is that.
Why do you always feel the need to make these "childish" comments?

Convert pdf to any format

i currently searching for a tool that can convert pdf to any format (office 08, iwork '09, pictures)
anybody has any suggestion? a tool that do-it-all?

If you really do mean ANY format, then you know of course that if you open a PDF file in Preview you can select 'Save As...' and in the Save window that comes up, from the 'Format' pop-up button you can select:
GIF
ICNS
JPEG
JPEG-2000
Microsoft BMP
Microsoft Icon
OpenEXR
Photoshop
PICT
PNG
SGI
TGA
TIFF
Unfortunately they are all image formats, which is useless if you want to extract the text as text. You can use Previews Text tool to drag across text and then copy and paste it into TextEdit or Pages - this though leaves the images behind.
Also, depending on your needs, since Snow Leopard, the inbuilt pdf filtering is suppose to be smarter than previous, in that if the pdf document is multi-column, then dragging across multiple columns of text will automatically determine the columns and when you paste it it will all come out intact. Unfortunately it isn't as smart as it thinks and my experience is that it is easily confused and will sometimes think there are columns that don't really exist.
Lastly, and probably what you are looking for, PDF2RTFService 1.1 by Devon Technologies is worth a look:

Depending on your needs it may or may not work for you. I find that for simple documents it does OK. For complex documents it's barely helpful. And since Snow Leopard, it sees columns that don't really exist - although that's Apple's fault, not Devon Technologies.

Opps, forgot to mention the PDF2RTFService is Free , but you figured that from the 'freeware' in the link, right.

Convert PDF Page to Image format

Is there any way to convert PDF page to Image formats (like JPG, GIF...)?
I am looking in iTextSharp. If there are other options also, please let me know.

There is a sample included with the Acrobat SDK that shows how to perform conversions of PDFs to other formats. There are also other options available to plug-ins such as PDPageDrawContentsToMemory() and then using an image library of your choice to save the bitmap data into various image formats.
> I am looking in iTextSharp
This is the Acrobat SDK forum - for questions regarding coding using the Acrobat SDK. Have you considered asking this in an iTextSharp forum if you are limiting yourself to that product?

How to convert pdf , psd files to jpg or png

Hi All,
how to convert PDF, Ai, EPS, CDR, PSD,BMP, GIF, TIF, TIFF to jpg or png image format

Acrobat or any otehr tool does not have any automatic translation. You will have to convert your PDF to an editable formatz like a Word document and translate and clean it up there, then export it back as a PDF.

I need to convert PDF file to Word Document, so it can be edited. But the recognizing text options do not have the language that I need. How I can convert the file in the desired of me language?

I need to convert PDF file to Word Document, so it can be edited. But the recognizing text options do not have the language that I need. How I can convert the file in the desired of me language?

The application Acrobat provides no language translation capability.
If you localize the language for OS, MS Office applications, Acrobat, etc to the desired language try again.
Alternative: transfer a copy of content into a web based translation service (Bing or Google provides a free service).
Transfer the output into a word processing program that is localized to the appropriate language.
Do cleanup.
Be well...

Need to convert pdf to word

need to convert pdf to word

Hi gurpreetkhalsa,
To convert a PDF file to Word format, you need ExportPDF, Adobe PDF Pack, or Acrobat. Which option you choose depends on whether you need additional features--ExportPDF is the most basic option, and offers the ability to convert to Word, Excel, or RTF.
Best,

Need to Convert PDF to doc in Russian, why programm do not recognice it?

Need to Convert PDF to doc in Russian, why programm do not recognice it?

Hi alsu22,
The OCR system that converts documents does not recognize any cyrillic languages, such as Russian. If the text is already renderable (selectable), you may want to try converting your document without the OCR function enabled. You can find steps here: http://forums.adobe.com/docs/DOC-3062

"an error message" really doesn't tell us much.

I would like to convert an animated Gif to .mov, will Quicktime Pro 7 do this? Should I spend the money?

Hi everyone.
I'm looking to put a few animations onto keynote and I'm making my presentation on PowerPoint.
I need to convert an animated gif into a .mov file and was wondering whether Quicktime Pro 7 does this?
Thanks

I need to convert an animated gif into a .mov file and was wondering whether Quicktime Pro 7 does this?
Since it appears QTKirk has provided the best answer for your specific work flow issue as stated, I will answer your more general question...
Yes, QT 7 Pro can open an animated GIF file and save it as an MOV file. At this time the real question is whether or not the MOV file produced is suitable for your needs. Basically the MOV file can be then then be played—but it only plays one pass in the normal playback mode. You can, of course opt to loop the playback which, for a small files, plays much as the original GIF.
Unfortunately, the "Loop" setting is not saved when the MOV file is saved, so this option must be re-initialized each time the MOV file is opened. This would not be a problem if all you are doing is openening the file in the QT 7 player and letting it play in the looped mode all day as some sort of display but would likely be an unsatisfoactory solution for sending the MOV file to someone else. You could, of course, turn the MOV file into a QTL file with the loop option set to get around this problem.
While I would be hard pressed to say it would be a good investment just for the creation of GIF movie files, QT 7 Pro does offer a lot of other features that make it a bargain utility for many quick edit requirements if you use/need them.

Any way to help me convert PDF format to word(.doc) on Mac

Hi,guys.Is there any one tell me how to convert PDF to word on Mac?
I am a middle school teacher.Recently I have a download some PDF file need to transfer to word as material for my working.As I use Mac OS has been doubly difficult for me,beacuse I am not familiar with mac system.
So any idea helpfully would be appreciated.

There is a very simple method and doesn't require new software.
Open a new Word document
Open the PDF in Preview (i.e., double click or right click and open with ... Preview)
Using the TEXT tool (button labeled "A') highlight the text you want to copy, then copy (i.e. Edit ... Copy, or right click .... Copy, or Command+C)
Paste the text into a Word document, and it will be editable.
If you want to copy the entire contents, you can use Command+A to select all contents, then copy and paste to Word document.
Preview actually works much better than Acrobat Professional in this respect because you don't carry over junk code from PDF.

PDF Watermark - logo image is not displayed in ibr converted pdf

Hi
I have enabled pdf watermark administration and configured image watermark with rule, if the content type is document then the image watermark is to be applied but it is not displayed to the converted word document to pdf by IBR.
If i change image watermark layer to "over", then image watermark is displayed, but word are displayed under the logo image watermark, so it is difficult to study the document.
If the native file is pdf, then its image watermark is working fine.
Thanks
Deepak

Hi ,
I think this could be caused by the following :
Check the factor set for Transparency and if it is completely opaque (Transparency =0%) then the converted PDF's will not show watermarks which has Layer set to UNDER.
To get the watermarks displayed PPT's will need to be set to Transparency = 100% .
The intention of the UNDER watermarking layer is that it should appear"behind" whatever is in the content layer.If the content layer completely covers the page and is opaque, then nothing behind it will be visible,including watermarks.The only reasonable solution is to check the above mentioned value before submitting the PPT's for conversion so that users are aware of this behavior for PPT's
The above description if for PPT's where in this was found to be caused by the transparency factor of native PPT . If it is a word document then check for the same setting and set to 100% , then test .
Hope this helps .
Thanks,
Srinath

How can I convert pdf to excel in bulk?

I can only find a way to do this one file at a time, but I have dozens of pdf files that need to be converted, is there an easier way to do this??
Thanks

Hi alc136,
It's not possible to batch convert pdf files to excel. You need to do it individually.
It is though possible to batch create pdf from multiple files.

How can I convert Pdf from RGB to CMYK, keeping font color 100% K while working in Illustrator?

How can I convert Pdf from RGB to CMYK, keeping font color 100% K while working in Illustrator?
When I try to open the document in Illustrator and I convert to CMYK the black font converts to rich black, but to set up for Offset printintg I need the text to be only in Black (100%K).
The original source of the document is a Microsoft Word file, I have converted the Word file to Pdf in order to setup for OFfset Printing.
Thanks

I have tried that way, but the downside is that the fonts are set in gray not in a 100%K, also I have to deal with other fonts that are composites and meant to stay Full Color. I could select text by text and convert to gray but, its a 64 page document and I wouldn't want to make a expensive mistake.
