Editing a PDF with Adobe Acrobat 7.0 Pro

Hi,
I've created a Will using an online kit. The final version is in PDF format. I can't print it out as is, because I want to delete a line at the end of a paragraph. I have Adobe Acrobat 7.0 Pro which I'm told can easily do this, but I don't know how to use it. I don't want to lose the exact format from the PDF version, because then I'd have to typeset the doc from scratch. By the way, I do not have the fonts used in the PDF doc. I hope this won't make a difference.
Can it be done? If so, exactly how. Please walk me through it like I'm six.
Thanks so much.
I'm on Mac OS 10.5.8

It's been a long time since I've used Acrobat 7 Pro but I have used Acrobat 8 Professional.
The key thing is to choose the correct tool. You're looking for the Touchup Text tool, which is probably on the Advanced Editing toolbar. You can probably open up that toolbar by choosing View > Toolbars > Advanced Editing. With that tool selected, drag through the sentence to be deleted. Right-click (Control-click) on the selected text and press Delete.

    Hi
    I've a big problem with adobe acrobat reader XI pro and I hope you can help me.
    The problem is; when I past copied text from some pdf books (not all of them) it past symbols only! wherever I past it! and even if I coped that text from another pdf reader (adobe pdf reader, internet browsers, ...etc.).
    This problem started to happen since yesterday when I installed adobe acrobat reader XI pro to try it before I buy it, and before that when I was using the free adobe pdf reader I was totally able to copy any text from any pdf and past it anywhere with nothing wrong.
    What can I do?
    thank you a lot.

    There is no product called Adobe Acrobat Reader Pro. There is
    - Adobe Acrobat Pro ($$)
    - Adobe Reader (free)
    Which do you have? And are you a programmer?

  • Can't open pdfs with Adobe Acrobat X

    I can't open pdfs with Adobe Acrobat X. I get this message:
      Warning: Distiller will not process .Log, .PDF or .JDF file extensions
    What do I need to do to be able to open .pdf files? I could open them previously.

    What are you getting the message in response to? Was this a creation of a PDF that resulted in the message? What are you using Distiller for? Distiller can only open PS and EPS files for processing to create a PDF.
    PDF files are opened in Acrobat. For opening PDFs, Distiller has nothing to do with the opening. So I really have no idea. It sounds like you may just be having a creation error since you mentioned a log file. If you were creating a PDF, have you checked the LOG file for the errors? The log file is usually located where you were going to create the PDF, but is created as Distiller processes the file (part of the general Acrobat creation process) and is deleted if successful.
    If you were trying to create, go back to the original application and print to file with the Adobe PDF printer. Then open that file in Distiller to create a PDF. Any errors will be shown in the window and an indication if the PDF was created or not.

  • Converting excel 2013 to pdf with adobe acrobat 9

    I have tried and failed many times to convert an excel 2013 spreadsheet into  a pdf with adobe acrobat 9.
    Is this a compatibility issue, Acrobat 9 needs upgrade?

    If you have Excel 2013, you don't need Acrobat to convert to PDF.

  • Can I merge comments from 2 pdfs with Adobe Acrobat online?

    Can I merge comments from 2 pdfs with Adobe Acrobat online?  If so,  how?

    Hi gignc,
    You can't merge comments using any of the Acrobat.com online services (ExportPDF, Adobe PDF Pack, and so on). But you can with an Acrobat subscription. Please see Adobe Acrobat X Standard * Publish comments from other reviewers from instructions.

  • Editing pdf attached to outlook emails with Adobe Acrobat - Std or Pro?

    Hi
    I have a customer, who wants to edit the PDFs, which are attached to emails, before forwarding them. (He just wants to add a sticky note).
    I recently found out, that this is only possible with Adobe Acrobat and not with Adobe Reader. Now, the question is, which version do they have to use? Acrobat Standard or Acrobat Professional?
    Does someone just know the answer or can anyone with Adobe Acrobat Std test this situation?
    Kind Regards,
    eddie

  • Editing pdfs with Adobe Acrobat professional 9

    So, I'm editing a pdf by using the "Edit page" option in Acrobat professional, which opens a temp file in Illustrator, where I'm able to make my changes, etc. Then when I save the temp file, and go back to the pdf file, the whole page has shifted to the right, even when the changes I made in illustrator looked okay after I saved it. It's when I go back to the pdf that everything seems to have shifted. I have no idea why this is happening, it seems like it's a new issue, never had this problem before doing the same thing. Has anyone had the same problem? And if so, how do I fix it?   
    Any help would be greatly appreciated!

    With Acrobat active, go to About Acrobat. Does your popup look like this?
    If so you have the latest version.

  • Edit Formscentral form with Adobe Acrobat 9 PRO

    Since Formscentral is being discontinued, I would like to be able to edit my forms with Acrobat 9 Pro. I have saved my forms from Formcentral as a PDF, opened them with Acrobat, saved a copy to remove the security, then opened it with the Forms wizard. Once I get to this point I am unable to edit the text of the form. What am I doing wrong or is there a better way to achieve this?

    I would also like to know.
    It seems we all have to recreate the forms again in indesign since indesign cant read a pdf form.  Is this really true.  Shame on Adobe  if it is.
    Please let us know.    
    We are PAYING CUSTOMERS.   Dont shaft us and leave us in the dark Adobe !!!

  • Mozilla Firefox and displaying PDFs with Adobe Acrobat NPAPI Plugin

    Hello Everyone,
    I have a strange issue going on in my enviroment with OS X clients, here are the relevent details and that steps I've performed.
    Clients are on fully patched 10.8.4 machines running Firefox 23.0 and Adobe Reader 11.0.03, the Adobe Acrobat NPAPI Plug-in (AdobePDFViewerNPAPI.plugin) is enabled under Add-ons Manager > Plugins. Under Preferences > Applications I have set PDFs to "Use Adobe Acrobat NPAPI Plug-in, Version 11.0.03 (in Firefox)".
    When viewing a PDF Adobe generates an error -> http://imgur.com/O4l5oTi
    I have already tried basic troubleshooting, uninstalling and reinstall both applications and preferences. I have deleted the mimeTypes.rdf and pluginreg.dat and had them recreated by Firefox. I believe this is a Adobe related issue as I initally was running Firefox 17.0.8 ESR and got this problem and then upgraded to 23.0 and continue to have the problem.
    Using the built-in PDF viewer works but this is not a fix but a workaround. Please advise if you need any further information, so far this is reproducable on all my machines running Firefox and Adobe Reader.
    Thanks,
    Kev

    Bump; The Firefox site says that Adobe "...does not yet maintain a browser plugin for viewing PDF files in Firefox on Mac OS X", per the support.mozilla.org site http://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/use-adobe-reader-plugin-view-or-download-pdf-files
    Can anyone from Adobe confirm this?

  • I am unable to convert certain files to pdf with Adobe Acrobat 8 Professional

    I am unable to convert Word & PowerPoint files to pdf.  (I am able to convert image files & excel)
    I have enable macros in Word and still cannot convert the file. 
    I am getting the error popup:
    Unable to open the document
    Please check to see if you have read permission for the above file
    I am running:
    Windows XP Professional Ver 2002 SP 3
    Adobe Acrobat 8 Professional
    Microsoft Office 2007

    Open the document in WORD or PPT and print to the Adobe PDF printer. With PPT, you will have to select the fill page option. You may also be able to use PDF Maker in WORD or PPT. From your post I am assuming you are trying to open directly in Acrobat and all of these other things have to be working properly before the latter will work. If they work and you still can not open directly in Acrobat, then try a repair on Acrobat.

  • Problems converting Wrod doc (2007) to PDF with Adobe Acrobat 8.x

    I have been trying to save a word document (2007) to PDF. If I open Acro
    bat and try to do it there by selecting a file I get a message that says unexpected error - no details. If
    i try from Word, the file appears to process but there is no document.
    I see nothing on line that answers this question.
    Thanks in advance

    Hi there,
    Sorry to hear you're having trouble. While I can't help with your Acrobat question (you're not in the Acrobat forum, but rather in the Acrobat.com forum), I can tell you that there are two online services that can do this conversion for you:
    1. Acrobat.com (www.acrobat.com) is a service for creating and sharing files, as well as web conferencing;
    2. Adobe CreatePDF (http://createpdf.acrobat.com) is a service solely for creating PDF files from existing documents.
    I would recommend either of those services to you for creating PDF files from your existing Word documents, as well as from image files and other text files (for a full list of supported documents, please see http://createpdf.acrobat.com/faq.html).
    For help solving the Acrobat problem, you'll probably want to re-post your question to the forum on the Acrobat User Community site: www.acrobatusers.com/forum
    Best of luck!

  • Keep getting an access denied window when trying to print to PDF with Adobe Acrobat X with any prgram/internet except for adobe programs

    I am trying to print to PDF from Word, Revit, Firefox and all have given me a Access Denied window popup and would cancel the print.  I have Adobe Acrobat X and Creative Design Suite 6.

    So you are trying to print to the Adobe PDF printer? What is the full statement of the error (typically it indicates a folder or such does not allow access)? If you open Distiller, are there settings files available that you can view?
    In the print menu, select print to file. Then open this file in Distiller. What happens with these two steps and do you get a PDF after the second step?

  • Conversion of a Word 2010 Document with inserted objects to pdf with adobe acrobat XI

    Hi,
    I am working in a Wrod document with inserted objects such as ppt files, word documents and even pdf documents. you open the word document, push in the object and then the inserted file opens. I have converted it to pdf with one button click and the index works, that's to say, you press in the index and you go to the section selected. However the inserted objects are images and you can no open them.
    Do you know how to keep the inserted objects????
    Thanks

    Pretty sure that the PDF will contain exactly what you'd get if you printed the Word document. There is no promise or expectation that objects will be "live".

    Document > OCR Text Recognition > Recognize Text Using OCR
    In the Recognize Text dialog, click the "Edit" button.
    In the Recognize Text - Settings dialog the middle entry has a drop-down menu.
    From this menu you can select one of three PDF Output Styles.
    --| Searchable Image
    --| Searchable Image (Exact)
    --| Formatted Text & Graphics
    These output styles are discussed in Acrobat Help.
