Edit a PDF

Some PDF files cannot be edited with Adobe Reader for iOS but other PDF editors can do it. Is there any solution to solve this problem? Thanks

You don't send anything to me at all. That's the point - it's a public forum, and any of thousands of people might read your message and might help. I'm not designated to you, and not an Adobe rep...
You add a screenshot by first saving it as a JPEG or GIF. Then return to the forum, sign in if needed, and click Reply. You can use the Camera icon in the reply box to add the screen shot.
But wait - I just realised it's iOS. That may make it harder for you. And also, it's not a version of Adobe Reader I'm familiar with. May be best to see if someone comes along who knows what you mean.

  • Error while editing a pdf using CS6

    Just recently, when I am attempting to edit a pdf it becomes unresponsive.  I am currently using CS6.  I have not done anything different.  Since I have been experiencing this problem, I have uninstalled CS6 and re-installed with no resolution to the problem.
    Any ideas?
    Thanks,
    Charla

    That’s weird.  How about this
    1.    which platform, Mac or Windows, and if possible please provide the operation system and its version?
    Windows 7
    1a. please provide your hardware info, that is, which CPU, how much RAM, and how much free space your hard disk still has available
    cid:[email protected]

    All on the same computer, but I apologize, where would I find the Applications folder?
    4.    was Acrobat installed as part of your CS installation, or was it independently installed?
    Yes, Adobe Acrobat was installed as port of the CS installation.
    6. if independently installed, was it before or after the CS apps?
    7. what kind of PDF's are you trying to edit where this happens - does it always happen with every PDF or just particular ones?
    Every pdf.
    - I am trying to get a picture of what kind of content inside the PDF you typically work with, e.g., text-only, forms, graphic images
    All the above
    8. are you working inside a local network, if yes, how many computers are connected to it?

  • How to edit a PDF in Photoshop CS4

    Hi there,
    I'm having some real trouble trying to figure out how to edit a PDF in photoshop cs4. So i need to edit/change text, move things around, that type of thing.
    I work in Windows.
    Could someone give me a bit a low down on how this is done?
    Much appreciated,
    Victoria

    You can open them but you will totally rasterize everything.
    PDFs are not intended to be edited. They are a final format but as
    mentioned you can use Acrobat for some minor text edits or use it to
    extract the images to Photoshop for further editing.

    But the word 'latent' is not searchable although the word 'unobserved' is searchable in acrobat. Does anybody what should be the correct way to edit a pdf file.
    What does the Td, Tj and the numbers, such as 10.3348, mean? Why a word are separated into many letters enclosed by ()?

    I know that pdf is usually compressed and pdftk can help decompress it. That is why I get the text format of the pdf code segments that I showed.
    The ISO 32000-1 document is too thick for me to digest. I know that if I should be able to find all the information that need from ISO 32000-1. But I'm wondering whether there is more concised document for my particular question.
    Also, I try to use Acrobat (TouchUP Text tool) to edit the pdf, but it always says "All or part of the selection has no available system font. You cannot add or delete text using the currently selected font." I find the following solution. But it doesn't really help, because I can not delete text if there is no system availabe font for the text that I'm going to delete.

  • How to edit a PDF document in Netweaver Development Studio?

    Dear Experts,
    I am trying to edit a PDF file in the Netweaver Developer Studio.
    Can anybody tell me how can I import and edit it in the Netweaver Developer Studio?
    I am trying to do some editing.Eg. adding action buttons, adding input fields etc to the PDF file.
    If somebody has previously done such things or have some idea, I would like to hear from your experiences.
    Many thanks
    Rgds,
    Sudeep

    Hi Satya,
    Thank you for the immediate response.
      Now I can import the pdf files and edit them.
    However there is a problem.
    I can only open the pdf files which I created by the developer studio.
    When I open the pdf files those created by a scanner, they appear blank. However, when I open the same files with acrobat reader, the contects in the file appear.
    I will be very thankful if you could help me in this.
    Many thanks

  • How To Edit a .pdf file - Please Help!

    When I Googled the above question, I was told to download the Adobe Acrobat XI.
    I tried downloading the trial version. I was then told to download the Creative Cloud to  be able to download Acrobat XI.
    I downloaded Creative Cloud, then I was taken to the Adobe Applications Manager Page which show a bunch of apps to download.
    I don't  know which app I will need for the editing.  I was looking for Acrobat XI, but it's not showing anywhere.
    I tried downloading Photoshop. This took more than 2 hours. After the download was complete, I tried launching it, but nothing happened.
    I went back & double-checked the instructions, & I'm directed & got stumped at the Applications Manager page once more.
    I find this very frustrating. I wish it were not this complicated.
    I just want to edit a .pdf file, and nothing else. I'm not sure if I want to go through all these maze, or just use FIVVER, pay $5.00 & AVOID all these hassles.@nikoledeon.

  • How to edit a pdf file?

    I downloaded the free Adobe and i want to edit a pdf file and it wont allow me. asking me to subscribe.

    You want to go to the source program you first edited and authored the file in and create a fresh new PDF from that file. You should always save a current copy of the program file which you authored the PDF file in. Acrobat is not really intended for creating content as such. You can do quick edits in Acrobat by setting up the Touch-up preferences, Preferences>General>Touch up, These should point to the programs you use to edit PDF content, in my case the Object editor is Illustrator and Image editor is Photoshop. Now if you select the touch up object tool and the click on the object(s) you want to edit selecting them, then right click to get the contextual menu and select, Edit Object, Acrobat will create a temp file and open it in the program which you selected in preferences. Do the edit and close the temp file, Acrobat uses the temp file to update the open Acrobat PDF file you were working on.
    Hope this helps

  • Trying to edit a .pdf file. Please help.

    I just downloaded the Adobe Acrobat 30-day free trial, which comes up as "Adobe Assistant" on my machine, and I've been trying to use it for editing a .pdf file, but it doesn't do anything but want to download an entire folder of documents. I don't want it to do that, but can't seem to do anything else. When I load Acrobat separately from a .pdf I already have saved, (even logging in to Acrobat), and try editing the .pdf document, it keeps launching to the website page saying that it needs to be paid for to use. I'm confused. How can I try the editor to see if I like it? Isn't it all one program or is the Assistant different from the Editor?

    I may be wrong, but I think you are not using Adobe Acrobat at all. It sounds as if you are still running Adobe Reader, for some reason, rather than Adobe Acrobat, which looks similar but has many more options. If you are not sure, tell us what you see under TOOLS - main headings - or look at the title bar.

    Editing a pdf form that I created. Adding header, currently the header only appears on page 1 of a 3 page pdf form.  I want it to appear on each page.  I am receiving the error msg "do not have sufficient permissions to perform this task"

    I have Adobe Creative Cloud.  How do I edit a PDF form I created at work and e-mailed to my home tablet?

    Hi Val,
    I see! Please see this thread: Is FormsCentral part of the Creative Cloud?
    Creative Cloud doesn't include FormsCentral, which is why you're being prompted to upgrade. (An Acrobat Pro subscription, on the other hand, does include FormsCentral.)

  • Is there any way to edit the pdf text field design?

    I dont want a black frame around text frames when a form is printed...
    In Livecycle you could define various properties (like sunken box etc.), but not in FormsCentral?

    If you have Acrobat Pro you can edit a pdf form file to have the various field border properties that you describe.  You would create the form in FormsCentral and save as PDF.  Then you would do a Save a Copy on the form.  Open the copy and select Tools->Form->Edit.  You can then select the fields and set the border in the Properties dialog in the appearance tab.  Once you have the form looking the way you want you would then re-import the copy into FormsCentral and send the file out to the world.

  • When I make a PDF from an AI file invariably I accidentally edit the PDF, not the AI file

    [I'm a long-time user of Illustrator and the creative suite/cloud.]
    When I make a PDFx file in illustrator I always "view PDF after saving". Invariably -- even when I rename the PDF -- I inadvertantly start editing the PDF as though it is an illustrator file, which the software permits. Of course, the source AI file isn't updated and I end up saving the revised PDF back to an illustrator file. It's a pain, confusing what little workflow management I have.
    Although PDFs and AI's are essentially the same, I always consider the AI file the core source file and use the PDF for client review.
    Is there a way to turn off editing of a PDF when I'm inside illustrator?

    That seems to work. The PDF that is previewed is an acrobat file and not an illustrator file. I can't edit this [thankfully]. Unfortunately, just more to remember to do
    There's no chec box in preferences that shuts off the feature I originally asked about?

  • Editing a PDF file with Acrobat XI pro... some "text" is not selectable and vanishes upon saving

    Hi folks.
    I've googled around for a few hours, but I'm completely stumped with this one.
    I'm trying to edit a .pdf file that was generated from Word 2007.  Mostly it edits fine, but for reason some of what appears to be text isn't selectable with the text and image editor... in fact it doesn't even have a bounding box around it.  When I move around the document or save it in acrobat pro, the "text" then vanishes.
    I include a dropbox link to a partial screenshot image which shows what I'm talking about.  You can see that the italic bold A doesn't have a box around it in some cases.
    https://www.dropbox.com/s/42i8xms78lvw12b/Screenshot%202014-02-07%2011.19.07.png
    Can anybody kindly shed some light on what I'm doing wrong? 
    Thanks! 
    -- gyre --

    Hi Bill.  Thanks for replying. 
    Unfortunately, I don't have the option of using the original DOCX file.  The author lost it, leaving only the pdf around
    I'm using AA XI 11.0.06.  Upgraded this morning.  That's running on Windows 7 Ultimate 64.
    I get the boundary boxes by clicking on the 'edit text and images' tool, and they appear.  Or don't in this case
    I only need to change a few characters in the file.   However, even just opening up the file in AA and then saving, the "A = " "text" gets deleted.
    Could it perhaps be something to do with embedded or missing maths fonts on my machine?  I mean, I don't get any warnings, just can't do anything with the A and AB italic bold text.
    Thanks!

  • Editing a PDF file on Illustrator to maintain custom font from another computer

    Hello,
    I am trying to edit a PDF file on Adobe Illustrator and the file has a custom font in it that I do not have saved on my computer/Adobe does not recognize.  Is there a way to save the file so that I can edit it, but so that Adobe does not replace the font with a basic font?
    I have tried:
    -Opening it in AcrobatPro vs. Illustrator
    -Saving the PDF (2 pages) as 2 separate JPEG files and placing them into Illustrator... That just lowers the resolution of the images and they are much lower quality/more pixelated
    -Placing the PDF file in Illustrator rather than opening it in Illustrator
    None of those worked, and now I am not sure what to do.
    Please advice ASAP- Your help is much appreciated as I am on a time crunch!
    Thank you!

    You can do it with Acrobat. Not Acrobat reader.
    It is also possible with Preview.
    Open the file in Preview and export it say to the Desktop.
    Than open the second pdf and import the file.
    Than you can delete tha parts you so not need and leave only one page.
    It can be used if the pages are not too many or it will take a long time and I am not sure if it will work with big files.

    PDF is an end destination format - although Acrobat is capable of making minor changes to a file (e.g. to correct typos) it is not a word processor or DTP application. Major changes must be done in the original document, and the PDF file re-exported.
    You can copy text from a file by selecting it and right-clicking, or you can save the file as plain or formatted text. To make small changes to the text on a page, use the touchup tool - see the help file for more info.
