Editing photos in a pdf file

Is it possible to apply a Photoshop curve, or profile to all of the photos in a PDF file globally?  I can edit the photos individually, but would like to just apply a curve to the file to brighten the photos up for press.  Or is there anything out there that will do this, Pitstop Pro won't, and it doesn't appear that any of the other PDF editors I've explored will do this.

Are you using Soft Proof function in Photoshop? Are you actually simulating the output device so you could know how that photos will print out? When you have correct way of doing things your PDF should be with minimal correction and even better with none. You can do various of types of corrections but they are more pre press based ones instead of some tweaking for Curves, Levels, Hue&Saturation...which are you will agree made for Photoshop. With available tools in Photoshop you need to avoid situation you have now when you are creating some files that will be used for creation of print ready PDF files.
Cheers

  • Editing text in all PDF files

    Hello,
    I am very new to Acrobat and am trying to change some text in some of my documents, but can't seem to be able to do so. I am using Acrobat X Pro and i use the "Edit Document Text" tool, but the cursor does not change to the text editing cursor. I tried opening other PDF documents and it seems that I am able to edit text in some PDF files, but not the text in others. For the one that I am trying to edit, I did the "Recognize Text" function. I can high-light the text and even search the document for certain words, but can't seem to change any of the text. I can select the text to cross out or put a comment in them, but still can't remove some words/letters & retype.
    This is really frustrating, as these documents are the only reason I wanted Acrobat X - so I can edit a few words on them.
    Please help!

    Nono, I've been trying to say that I CAN high-light it. I can high-light any text in there, select it for commentating, do the strike-out notes on it. I can even do ctrl+F and search for a word that's within the document and it will find that word. There is no "original" PDF because that IS the original.
    I can do everything else to the text except actually edit it (basically deleting or changing the words).
    This is frustrating because other files that people send me that are generated via an automated system are editable, but my own PDF files are not, and I want to know what that difference is and how I can change it so that I can edit my own PDF files.

  • Photos converted to pdf files by Adobe 9.0??

    I am a rookie user.
    I recently downloaded Adobe 9.0 per a prompt on my PC.
    I went in today to look at some photos that I have had on this PC for about a year - save in standard 'folder-file-jpeg' format.
    Somehow, and I did not do this since I would not know how - 4 of my vacation photo folder had been converted to Adobe pdf files. That's about 1000 photos.
    This is not what I want - and not the format I use.
    How can I get them back to jpegs and stop this from happening again.
    Thanks,
    Ken

    Berndt and David,
    Thanks for trying to help me.
    I have checked the following:
    1. Photos in question now have a .pdf file extension.
    2.I recently downloaded Acrobat.com, Adobe Air, Adobe reader 9.0 and Adobe Flash Player Active X.
    3. I went to Control Panel, Folder Option and had 3 tabs to choose from: 1. General 2. View 3. Search.
    I reviewed each option under the 3 tabs and I did not find an option to change or do anything with file extensions such as .jpeg, etc.
    4. My OS is Vista Home.
    Please advise next steps or some idea on what I can do, try, chcek on for you, etc.
    Many thanks! I am grateful.

  • I can't edit text on a pdf file in adobe acrobat

    I need to edit the text on the pdf file but I can't and this message keeps showing up: " This form cannot be edited in Acrobat. Please use Adobe LiveCycle Designer to edit this form.
    There are no security on this file. The only thing that is not allowed is to create templates. When I check the document properties description, on the PDF producer it says adobe distiller 7.0.5 (windows)
    I downloaded the adobe livecycle designer but I couldn't edit the text there either... When I open the file it says the text is not downloaded so it replaced it with another text, I clicked ok but then the text didn't change, This message showed up:
    I really need to edit the text on this pdf file because it's important. Can anyone help? Greatly appreciate it. By the way, this is a pdf fillable form that you can fill out on acrobat and that is the only thing it seems like it will let me do this file. I don't want to fill it out, I want to edit whats on it. It's one of those forms that you get from NJ courts.

    Ok, what we can tell you is that if this is a LiveCycle form (and we can be pretty sure it is), that you are absolutely right. Acrobat can fill it, and nothing else. These are a very special kind of PDF, where all the text is in a special XML format that Acrobat can only show, not edit.
    So, you are on the right track: if it can be edited, you need LiveCycle Designer. Unfortunately, we don't know much about it in this forum, so please try posting here: http://forums.adobe.com/community/livecycle/livecycle_modules_and_development_tools/livecy cle_designer_es
    If the form is publicly available, it may help if you include the URL (web address) when you post.

  • Editing Actual Text in PDF File

    Is there any way or a third party software that will allow me to actually edit text in a PDF???
    Right now, I have a PDF file that was emailed to me for printing and some text in the file needs to be modified. I would just like to edit the actual text instead of waiting for the sender to edit the text in whatever program they used to create the PDF from.
    I presently have Adobe Acrobat 7.0 Standard.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated!!!
    Thanks!

  • HT2506 How can I turn off editing feature for all pdf files?

    The editing feature is annoying because when I read pdfs, I select randomly with mouse on the file, which creates "editing behavior". What' s more annoying is it saves to the pdf file directly without asking me, which causes sync services like dropbox to sync the file, generating unnecessary traffic and disk usage.  I never need to edit pdf files. Please give me an option to disable the feature permanently.
    See this link for other people getting annoyed:
    http://apple.stackexchange.com/questions/145009/how-to-disable-pdf-editing-in-pr eview-app

    ok after another hour of playing around i might have half solved this...I turned match off via my account within the store which didn't seem to work properly, but then found another option to "turn off" via the store dropdown in the menu bar which does seem to have worked on my mac (but not yet on my iphone so still need to figure this out). Now I have turned it off on my mac it seems to offer me the option to buy it again - but as i've already paid for the year I don't know if there is the option to turn on again if I choose to later?

  • The photo book review pdf file is fully smudged and there are many horizontal lines all over the pictures. the book looks absolutely ok , but the pdf is showing all problems. also when i uploaded the book, it was successful, but got an error message later

    I created a book on I photo and uploaded it yesterday. it was all ok and the order was accepted. However i got an error message today. The book looks perfect on I Photo, when i do a preview, the PDF file is totally smudged and there are 100s of horizontal lines all over the photos. Also the coloures are bleeding all over.
    what can be the case and how can i resolve this.
    samir

    if the book looks good order while in safe mode - then reboot into normal mode
    Before ordering your book preview it using this method - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1040 - and save the resulting PDF for reference - the delivered book will match it.
    Apple will stand behind the order if it does not match your preview

  • Editing Image From PDF File To Use in AI Document

    Hello,
    I am a beginner user of AI and am having trouble with editing certain images from PDF files on Illustrator. I'm not even sure what I'm trying to do can be done on Illustrator or requires Photoshop.
    A) Here is the first example (Note that this is only similar to the type of image I am talking about. It is not the exact one as I don't have access to it right now):
    So let's say here are the things I want to do. (1) Extract it from the PDF file, (2) transfer it to my AI document without blurriness, (3) change the white background of the image to another color (eg. grey), (4) and embolden the lines presently in the image. If you can advise what's the way to perform these tasks?
    I have used image trace at times but if the photo is too light, portions of it will vanish. The portions that do remain become way too bold. It would be great if there was a way I could make most if not each components of the image controllable/movable. Is it possible?
    Also, what if I want to erase some of the text on the image? I have tried using the eraser tool but it does not erase on images.
    B) How would I go about removing the background of a photo like this and replacing it with a color?
    Please keep in mind that I am a complete neophyte when it comes to using Illustrator, Photoshop etc so take this into consideration when explaining. Thanks in advance

    Trent,
    To make a clear and clean drawing like A), it is better to use the image as a locked template and recreate with the native tools; most things can be made with the Rectangle Tool and the Ellipse Tool, some with the Line Segment Tool or the Pen Tool; and you can use different Window>Pathfider operations.
    It is probably easier to get rid of the surroundings in B) using Photoshop where you can erase colours within a range; the grass seen through the windows may be treated by itself, and you may wish to keep the shadow.

  • How to edit and add a signature on a pdf file

    how to edit and insert signature on a pdf attachment
    Creating, Editing & Exporting PDFs

    First the PDF file has to be editable.
    Then it depends on whether you want to sign it with an annotation (Acrobat stamp), an Electronic Signature (a.k.a EchoSign) or a Digital Signature (Acrobat).
    If it's a Stamp then go to Sign Panel>Get others to Sign and then you can use the Place Signature button.
    If it's an Electronic Signature then after you finished your stamp then just follow the wizard that pops up when you click the Signed. Proceed to Send Powered by EchoSign
    If it's a Digital Signature then go to Sign Panel>Work with Certificates>Sign with Certificate and follow the wizard.
