Editing a scanned pdf

Hello,
I have a pdf scanned from a xerox workcentre 7535. I just want to rotate it and save it in the new rotated view. I rotated it and did save as to new file name. When I open it, it is not rotated as I had saved it!
Adobe Acrobat XI standard ver 11.0.06
Thanks

Use Tools > Pages > Rotate

  • While editing a scanned pdf, Acrobat will not recognize the current font & change to very different font. How can I choose the font I want to match the current document?

    While editing a scanned pdf, Acrobat will not recognize the current font & change to very different font. How can I choose the font I want to match the current document?

     Thanks for answering. The version is XI.0.10. I just did the update yesterday hoping that I could now properly edit a scanned pdf document. Yes, it's happening on most all scanned documents. I followed your steps & found the list of fonts used in the document & then attempted to edit. The same occurs. When I type in a correction, I get an error alert... "the original font (in this case Fd 5805) is not available or can't be used in editing. Acrobat is using the font Minion Pro in its place." 
    When I select the text & right click as you suggested, my only choices are cut, copy, delete or select all, no "edit text".
    I have no other options to choose another font. Thanks for any help you can direct my way.

    You can open a pdf in the PSE editor. When you open the pdf, a dialog will ask you  which page to chose (if it's a multipage pdf) and which parameters to use for the conversion to bitmap.
    Since you are on a flattened bitmap (psd, tiff, png, jpeg...) all text will be converted and you won't be able to edit text (which is vector format).

    how can i edit a scanned pdf file in adobe acrobae 9 pro ?

    With Clear Scan you get the text replacing the graphics of text. That can be edited. If you do searchable PDF conversion, you can still edit (I think). However it is an edit of the hidden layer of text behind the graphic and does not show on screen normally.
    Usually the best choice is to ask the author for the original file to edit. If that is a copyright issue, then you should not be editing anyway.

    how do i edit a scanned pdf document in word?

    In order to edit a scanned PDF anywhere, you'll need to run Optical Character Recognition so it can covert the text from an image to actual text.
    That would require Adobe Acrobat once the PDF is created. If you are using scanning software to create the PDF, that option may be in the software so you can OCR it as you create it.

  • Scanned pdf file-how to edit/translate

    Hi,
    I am not very good at working with computers/but pretty good at messing them up...Anyhow, I have a Mac OS X version 10.5.8 and I received a file that I need to translate into my own language (my own translation, no need of computer aid in translating), it is a scanned pdf file. How do I manage to put a cursor in a file like this? Do I need a "character recognition" something software or is it so easy that I can't figure it out?....Thanks for any help/advice you have regarding this,
    Anne

  • Problem editing scanned PDFs

    I'm working with a lot of scanned old books. Sometimes I download one from Google Books or another site and want to get rid of the first and last couple of empty pages. The weird thing that happens in Preview is that the new file after extracting the pages I need from the PDF is always HUGE. For example, a scanned PDF of some 160 pages is 6,5 MB. After extracting 150 pages from it, it's 356 MB (!!). The same happens with merging. Merged two PDFs of 15 MB each into one the other day, and the new file was 60 MB. I know that there must be a good reason for that, but it's totally beyond me. It's the same whether I print to PDF or drag and drop. I even tried the Super PDF Utility from the Mac App Store, which enables me to simply delete some pages from the file and the result was the same. So I guess it must be something about the scanned PDFs. But it happens with all scanned PDFs, no matter where I got them.
    So my question is (assuming I'm not doing anything wrong), does anybody know about a not-too-pricey app that would split and merge scanned PDFs without going nuts with the size of the files?
    Ok, that's one part of the question. The other is more general and relates to the first: I've been looking for a PDF editor app that would do the following:
    split and merge as described above
    make my scanned PDFs searchable (means adding an invisible OCR layer, but keeping the scanned appearence of the pages)
    if possible, convert the raster or bitmap to vector (in my case, smoothing the fonts on low quality scans)
    I should note that the books I work with are almost exclusively text only. I've been searching for an app like that but the feature descriptions are not always so precise. I hope this is not inappropriate for this forum. I'm willing to spend reasonable amont of money, but not Acrobat Pro money.
    Thanks a lot!

    Find one the "Jones" can you select the text of the word "Jones"? If not you have a graphic the the PDF/A issue is a red herring.

    Scanning creates a graphic. If you want to edit a graphic you need a graphics program like Photoshop, Photoshop Elements, GIMP, Acorn or Graphic Converter.

  • Erase a sentence in a scanned pdf document

    A scanned pdf file needs to be sent with confidential info edited out. Leaving a blank space is OK.
    1.) How can sentences be securely erased in a pdf document so the intended reader cannot find the confidential info?
    2.) How about securely deleting a page ?
    Thank you.

  • Scaling Scanned PDF

    I'm a new and very novice Adobe Acrobat user and that's putting it mildly. I'm trying to scale a scanned PDF of sheet music.I optimize it, convert to text, then crop it. I've tried selecting all content Ctrl+A then scaling it but the text and images get out of alignment. I'm trying to scale the image to a larger size to fit on an 8 1/2 x 11 sheet of paper instead of printing smaller text/graphics. The scanned image is about 4 x 5. The musical notes are stored as images. I'm attaching the optimize and text conversion screen captures. I don't see a place to attach the PDF. Any help will be much appreciated. Thanks!

    You might check for a preflight script to see if there is a script for what you want (I don't remember one). I have AA 9 handy and you can use the edit object tool, there is a similar tool in XI. However, you can not go from 4X5 page to a larger one this way. A quick solution (not normally recommended) is to print to a new PDF with the size you specify and select expand to fit. This might be the quickest at this point, but you should explore other options. Unfortunately my newer Acrobat is not working properly on this machine.

  • Editable text scan

    using  hp officejet 8500  with window xp I was able to edit my scans.  Now using window 8.1 that menu is not available.
    The only download  was HP scan & capture.  Though it will scan photos and docs (only in pdf).  Is there a way to scan to editable text and also e mail the scan directly as was possible with xp??

    Hi,
    In order to get full funtionality as OCR scanning, you will need to install the latest full feature software for your PC.
    First open the control panel and select Devices and Printers, right click any existing Officejet 8500 icon and select Remove Device.
    If the printer is connected with a USB, unplug the cable at this time. be sure to keep it unplugged till the installation will guide to connect it.
    Next download and install the full feature software below, that will add full functionality as OCR scanning through the HP Solution Center Software:
