Deskewing or reorienting pages in a PDF

Many of the pdf documents I receive from others seem to have been scanned a bit askew.  That is, the edges of the document pages are not perfectly parallel to the edges of the scanner.  (My old machine scanned everything slightly askew when I used the document feeder; my current one does not).  Can I reorient the crooked pages in Acrobat X Pro so they are no longer skewed.  If so is there a limit to the amount of correction or de-skewing I can apply?

Hi GMJ47,
How is the pdf created? Many a times due to bad pdf structure this error comes up.

  • How do I scan multiple pages into one pdf document on a HP Envy 4501 Printer

    My HP Envy 4501 Printer won't let me scan multiple pages into one pdf document.
    I went to "Advanced Settings", clicked on "file" and made sure that the check box next to "Create a separate file for each scanner page" was unchecked.
    When I clicked the Save button it showed the page that I scanned and showed 1/1.  On the right side it had options for changing the brightness and Contrast, Rotate and Crop and "Back", "Save" and "Done" buttons, but nothing about scanning another page.
    Not to mention HP's Customer Support is useless!
    I'd appreciate any help I can get with this problem.
    Thanks,
    Mark

    Hi BH,
    I see your diagram.  I just scanned something.  The screen that I'm looking at right now shows the preview page and the scroll box to the left of that just like in your diagram.  The screen does not show the + button nor does it show the red x button under the scroll box as in your diagram.  I can't see the plus sign because it is not there.
    I tried re-installing the software and drivers as you suggested but that did not have any affect.
    Thank you for trying to help me with this problem but it hasn't worked, therefore I can't mark the reply "Accept as Solution".
    I've noticed that on HP's support forum web page there is only 1 solved request for assistance.  That doesn't give me much confidence in HP.
    Please reply back to this post to let me know if there is anything else that I can try or if you know someone else at HP that can help.
    If I don't here back from you, I'm returning this HP Envy 4501 Printer to get my money back to use it to buy a printer from one of HP's competitors.
    Thanks,

  • HT4356 How do you conver a Page document to PDF when there is no printer available

    I purchased a $400 printer last year..now I cannot use it with my IPAD3 because it has to be an Air Print printer.
    I need to convert my Page document to PDF and the only way to do that is to go to Print a document...but, when
    I get there it tells me that I don't have a printer...Therefore, I cannot get to PDF conversion...
    I thought Apple have an incredible group of smart software engineers  ...what happened?
    Now, I have to go and buy another $400 printer to be able to convert a document to PDF?
    I bought this IPAD3 for my wife since she is not a computer expert but, so far I see that this is a  product more compicated than a personal computer.
    The hardware is great but,  so far my wife has a hard time to use the Apps I got for this IPAD...I'm a software programmer working for a major computer company and I also have a hard time trying to get these functions to work...

    Under "Share and Print", tap "Email Document", then choose PDF. Alternately, tap "Sent to iTunes", "Copy to iDisk", or "Copy to WebDAV" and then choose PDF...

  • Scanning multiple pages to multiple pdf on HP Laserjet M3035

    We have a Laserjet M3035 MFP installed as network printer.
    We can scan multiple pages in to a single PDF to a folder on the server.
    We would like to scan multiple pages to multiple PDF to a folder on the server.
    e.g. one page to one pdf with the ADF 40 pages in one go. Is it possible and how do we do it.
    Thanks for the possible solutions

  • Page numbers in PDF?

    I cannot figure out how to identify the page numbers of a PDF document when I view it in Safari 5.0.3. The original paper document has its own numbering system, but the PDF page-numbers are completely different. When I go to print individual pages of the PDF document, I don't know what page numbers to put into the printer window.
    I asked the publisher of the PDF document for advice. This is what it advised:
    "This is an issue with printing PDFs (Portable Document Files) in general, and does not pertain exclusively to printing PDFs in FDsys. When printing a PDF document in your web browser, the web browser is printing the pages of the electronic file (the PDF) not the page numbers that appear on the original publication (from which the PDF is derived). The page numbers of a PDF document do not always match the page numbers appearing on the publication itself. For example, in the example you cited (http://www.gpo.gov:80/fdsys/pkg/USCODE-2009-title26/pdf/USCODE-2009-title26-subt itleA.pdf), the page number on the publication is page 347. However, if you click anywhere in that page, you will see that the PDF reader you are using indicates the corresponding page in the PDF file in the toolbar at the top of the page (next to the up/down arrow icons). The page number indicated in the toolbar refers to the page numbers in the PDF file, and it is these page numbers that your browser is referring to during the printing process."
    None of those instructions work in Safari. How do I find the page numbers for a PDF document in Safari?

    Hi Richard
    the best bet is to open it in Preview using the relevant button that appears when you hover at the bottom of a pdf in safari. Although the page numbers that appear on each page still won't necessarily match, you can at least make preview show the 'pdf' numbers in the toolbar, which will match those you choose when printing.
    a plugin like adobe's or http://schubert-it.com/pluginpdf/ may show page numbers within Safari, but that doesn't mean they'll match those which appear on the pages, in the example link you gave, and others.

  • I am trying to drag and drop one page of a .pdf into another .pdf in Acrobat Reader.  I used to be able to drag and drop from one .pdf to another.

    I am trying to drag and drop one page of a .pdf into another .pdf in Acrobat Reader.  I used to be able to drag and drop from one .pdf to another.

    If you could drag and drop pages before, it wasn't in Reader. You no doubt had Adobe Acrobat (Pro or Standard) which shouldn't be confused with Adobe Acrobat Reader. They recently added Acrobat to the name of Adobe Reader so the confusion about which product you had and/or have is understandable.

  • How can I make some pages in a PDF display in single-page view and others in two-page (facing) view?

    Exactly as it says on the tin. I am looking to save a PDF magazine/book layout in such a way so that when opened, only the front and back covers open to the viewer in single-page mode, and the rest of the pages in two-page facing mode, without re-printing the in-between pages in booklet format  and re-inserting them into a new PDF (with the front and back covers left separate and untouched, and included as single portrait-orientation pages). This is so that individual pages can still be printed (on a physical printer, not a "virtual" one like a PDF driver), as-is without having the page next to it included, or the printouts always requiring landscape orientation (resulting with two "pages" from the PDF showing up on one sheet of paper).
    So when the PDF is opened, I want just the front and back cover to be auto-viewed by themselves, and the content (the "meat" of the document) viewed side-by-side, as though one were actually reading a "book" -- but without actually re-doing the content pages to be "fused" side-by-side. Thus creating the "illusion" that they are, in fact, in booklet form. Is this possible, to have different page-display settings for different pages/page ranges in a single PDF? If so, how is this done? If not, what would be my best course of action otherwise to achieve this "virtual" book layout, while still retaining the "physical" structure of the document and allowing individual pages to be printed by themselves rather than "fused" together?
    Using Acrobat X Pro on Windows 7 Pro SP1.

    Dave Merchant wrote:
    The best you can do practicably is the 'two up with cover page' view mode. The first page will appear singly but not centered, and to get the last page to behave it would have to be a folio sheet.
    It's theoretically possible to use JavaScript to reset the view mode as each page is changed, but it makes for a nightmare of usability (what if someone on a smaller display wants to use 'fit to width'? Not an option if JS keeps overruling it). Anything involving JS won't work on non-Adobe software or mobile devices.
    Not a programmer by any means, so I won't be using JavaScript because I wouldn't know where to begin. I was thinking more in terms of an option I could adjust in the menus or dialogues.

  • How do I print 2 pages from a pdf file and enlarge it

    how do i print 2 pages from a file and enlarge it  to email

    Hi stevebulldog,
    Do I understand correctly that you'd like to extract two pages from a PDF, and then send them via email?
    To extract pages from a PDF, you need to use Acrobat. If you don't have Acrobat, you can try it for free for 30 days. Please see http://www.adobe.com/products/acrobat.html.
    I'm not sure what you mean by "enlarge" it. When your recipient views the PDF, they can enlarge the view (zoom in on the PDF) by choosing options from the View menu in Acrobat or Reader.

  • Can I add Action button on each page of my pdf document

    I have created  many power point slides with an action button on each slide that allows the user to click to display a video clip.   I would like to create a pdf document of this and replace each of my action button in ppt with an action button that works in Acrobat.
    I noticed that action buttons can be added to forms, but I want to be able to add an Action Button on each of my ppt slides to start playing a video clip (each slide will have a different video).
    I would like to do this using any coding method (i.e. Javascript, VBA, C , etc).   I think acrobat uses Javascript.
    The reason, is that I want to display my power point slides on an IPad and they don't support hyperlink in power point.   I believe IPad does suppport the full acrobat capabilities.
    Can this be done ??  
    Any suggestions where to start ??
    Thank You,
    G

    NO problem creating the buttons and then playing this back in Acrobat. Works great.
    However, unfortunately, none of the PDF viewers for the iPad support playing movies.   So playing it there won't work :(.

  • Open specific page in a PDF file?

    Hi!
    I wonder it it's possible to link or set parameters so that the user ends up on the correct page in a PDF file. Lets say that I would like to link to chapter 3 in a large PDF file. Is this possible in the DMS?
    I can't use TREX for indexing because that's not implemented.
    Best Regards,
    Kristoffer Pehrson

    hi,
    Instandard SAP DMS, u con't link like what u explained. fro that sap made an option. U could utiliz DIR key's 'PART' u can use as many as sheets of PDF as ur DIR.
    One more thing i think u misunderstanding SAP DMS, it is a tool deals Thechnical document and is used in PLM area. in integrates SAP logistics.
    Ucould use SAP Archive LIkn for this purpose. or u coud split PDF before link into DMS.

  • How do I scan multiple pages into one pdf file using the PIXMA MG7520 on Windows 8.0? Please help!

    I recently received a PIXMA MG7520 for a gift.  It works great with my lenovo laptop/tablet running on Windos 8.0.  The one drawback to the HP all-in-one that it replaced is it does not have an ADF.  That being said, there must be some way to scan multiple pages into one pdf file.  I need help figuring thing out.  Thanks in advance!
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    Hi mdtolbert54,
    There is a program that comes with the printer called the IJ Scan Utility that can assist you with scanning multiple pages into a single PDF document.  To do this, please follow these steps:
    1. On your keyboard, press the Windows key.
    2. Start typing IJ SCAN UTILITY. The search window opens as you type. Once the IJ SCAN UTILITY is displayed, please select and open it.
    3. In the Canon IJ Scan Utility window that opens, click SETTINGS.... in the bottom right of the window. The Settings dialog box appears.
    4. Click the DOCUMENT SCAN option on the left pane of the window.
    5. In the SAVE SETTINGS section of the window, you will select the save format and location of the document you are about to scan.
    a.) In the FILE NAME field, specify the name you would like to give the file. By default the filename will begin with IMG; you can remove IMG and change it to whatever you would like to name the file.
    b.) In the DATA FORMAT field, use the drop-down arrow to select the PDF (Multiple Pages) option. 
    c.) In the SAVE IN field, please navigate to the area where you would like the file to be saved once it is scanned in. By default, the file will be saved in the MY DOCUMENTS folder.
    6. Once all settings have been selected, click the OK button at the bottom of the window to save the changes. The IJ Scan Utility main screen appears.
    7. Click the DOCUMENT button. Scanning starts. Click the CANCEL button to cancel scanning if needed. Scanned items are saved in previously selected folder location specified in the SETTINGS... window.
    If you find that you need advanced scanning options such as adjusting resolution, brightness, contrast, saturation, color balance, etc. in addition to the options selected above, please click on the SCANGEAR button on the IJ Scan Utility Main screen, then adjust the items as necessary.
    Once the items above are set for document scanning, in the future, you will only need to launch the IJ Scan Utility, then press the DOCUMENT button to perform the scan (unless you want to make changes to the settings).
    Hope this helps!
