First screen shot of Preview PDF is inaccurate

I use cmdshift4 to take a lot of screen shots of pages of pdf files displayed in Preview (to covert to jpegs in Fireworks...for posting on the web) and often, but not always, the first page of a multi page pdf file, when dragged over for the shot, *__does not produce the correct screen shot__*. It is often of the second page or part of the second page. Something is buggy here. So I have to constantly check the first "picture 1" to see if it is correct. A pain in the ***. This is new with 10.5.2. I cannot seem to solve it with random clicking or scroloing and the bug seems random as well. Any hints?

Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and then tap the home button. You should hear the camera shutter sound as it takes the screenshot.
For Siri, go into Settings > Siri > Turn off "Raise to Speak".

How (in windows 8) could I make an screen shot of a PDF figure or table

In windows 8, How could I make an screen shot of a figure or table?

The Windows 8/RT operating system can take screen shots. Please see the Microsoft Windows Support page below.
Take a screen shot (print your screen)
With the steps above, it is possible to capture screen shots of your entire screen or one window.
Please note that Adobe Reader Touch does not provide the functionality to extract or export any objects (text, images, tables, etc.) from a PDF document (yet).

How do I take screen shot with preview if when I click preview iCloud comes up?

I recently updated iCloud. Now when I open preview to take a screen shot of a page that I am working on iclid comes up and obstructs the page. How do I get back to the screen that I want a scene shot of?

As with the previous iOS versions.
Press and hold the Home button and use the on/off or sleep/wake button as a camera shutter button for the screen shot.
Or while pressing and holding the on/off or sleep/wake button before the slide to power of appears, use the Home button as a camera shutter button - this must be done before the slide to power off appears.

How do i print a screen shot from a PDF file with a keyboard in windows 8

Do you mean taking screen shots on Windows 8?
If so, please see the answer that I posted on a different discussion in the forum.

Please note that the capability of taking screen shots is provided by the operating system (not by Adobe Reader Touch, which is just a PDF viewer).

Anti-Screen Shot?

While talking to a sales rep the other day about Adobe Acrobat 8 Pro, he told me there is a way to edit a PDF, so when someone who is viewing it takes a screen shot of the PDF and pastes it into MS Paint, the picture shows the encrypted text, preventing for the user from taking a screen shot of the PDF.
Does anyone know how to write a JavaScript to do this? Thanks for any help!
~Bryan~

Bernd is correct. This cannot be done with Acrobat JavaScript.
Just as with your "expired document" code, you are overestimating what JavaScript can do. JavaScript in Acrobat is security restricted and has absolutely no access to system events such as pressing the "Print Screen" key for a screen shot (since that is an OS-level function and not an application-level function).
Also, just as with your "expired document" script, if the user disabled JavaScript in Acrobat (you can turn off JavaScript processing in the preferences) then your script would be useless and the user could take a screen shot.
I suggest you contact Acrobat Developer Support and ask them if you don't want to trust seasoned veterans like Bernd. Their job is specific to Acrobat JavaScript - next to the Acrobat developers, they are the experts, and they will tell you exactly what Bernd told you. They also have direct access to ask the developers if you need absolute confirmation.

Screen Shot Size

Oh, I hope somebody can help me with this issue, it's causing
much frustration. :(
I'm recording a demonstration of how to execute a particular
function within a website. When I create the project, I'm able to
align the screen shot with the red box exaclty how I want to. So, I
take the sreen shot of screen 1 and then click to screen 2. When I
arrive at screen 2, the nice box for the screen shot I created for
screen 1 does NOT align with screen 2. This is a flaw in the
website (lack of uniformity in its graphic design) ... however, can
I correct it with Captivate? I tried the crop feature when you
resize, but this didn't work properly.
Also, why is that you can't specify the size of the screen
after already recording once? I ask becuase I tried recording
screen 1 on its own... And then screen 2 on its own. With screen 2,
I'm not able to adjust the red box precisely as I was able to with
screen 1.
Please help Captivate masters!
Thanks,
WCC

My suggestion here would be having snapped screen 1 within
the red recording area and taken the first screen shot, press the
pause on your keyboard button, make sure that the second screen is
aligned correctly within the red recording area, press the pause
button again and then press the Print Screen key to manually
capture the second screen.

Put simply because you cannot have slides at different sizes
in the same Adobe Captivate project file. Whilst you cannot resize
the red recording area, you can select a different application in
the recording dialog box and then snap this within the red
recording area; you can also move the red record box manually by
either clicking and dragging on one of the edges or clicking on one
of the edges and pressing one of the arrow keys on your keyboard.
Note: You move the red recording area 5 pixels (I think) at a time
by holding down the Ctrl key and press one of the arrow keys.
If you need to capture screen 2 at a different size you would
then need to do this in a separate project file and this
separately. You could do this using either the slide navigation
options or load the second file at the end of your first project.
Whatever method you choose to use you will first need to publish
your second screen project as a SWF and include an HTML file.
Personally, I would suggest in either cases you choose the option
"Open URL or File."

Emailing screen shots (image resizing itself so its unreadable!)

i'm a big fan of screen shots. i've noticed that since i changed over to leopard if i want to email a screen shot using mac mail it resizes the image so it is completely unreadable. but if i open the screen shot in preview i can view the screen shot at the size i captured it at. any ideas how i can go in and attach it to an email and the email will view & send at actual size. I've tried various things such as going into preview and going to file->mail image. i've tried saving the file as a different type (gif, jpg). i've tried pulling the image into the email body, as well as going and clicking the paperclip to attach. all method result in the same cruddy quality image.

after you drag an image to the mail composition window, a small button called "Image size" should appear in the lower right corner of the window. Click on it and select "Actual size".

Can't use all annotate actions in Preview-it's a PDF of a web screen shot. No highlight, underline, etc; can insert text, boxes, notes.

I can't use all the annotate actions in Preview. It's web screen shot saved as a PDF. No highlight, underline, or strikethough text but I can insert text, boxes, notes. On other forums this problem was solved by saving as a PDF which I have done. Any other solutions?

I don't think PDF is the way to do it, but if it was you'd need something like Adobe Acrobat Professional.
>I'm updating the content and copy for a website and thought the easiest way would be marking up a PDF of the webpages including highlighting text to be removed, etc.
As far as Text changes, I thing the actual Source would maybe be the way to go, but you could always turn the PDF into a jpg or such, then use a Graphics program to poit out things...

I have Adobe X1 ver 11.0.7 installed on my iMac, when I download a .pdf and try to print it the printer preview is blank, only way is to take screen shots, is this me or an Adobe issue?

On my iMac OS-X 10.9.3 I am able to view a downloaded .pdf in my browser , if however I want to print out the .pdf via the File tab and Print in Safari, the message comes up that Adobe either does not support this format, or it s corrupted as an attachment to an email. I have tried saving it to my desktop by exporting it as a .pdf, or saving it to the desktop. In both cases when I try to open it, I get the same message.
Found that the only way I can save the data is to take a screen shot to my desktop and then I can print it out, but cripes what a pain!
Any suggestions would be welcome, is this me or an Adobe issue?

If you are printing to physical printer from Safari : Use Reader print button from Reader toolbar
If you want to save a PDF from Safari to your local : Use Reader Save button from the Reader toolbar.
PS: if you have PDF in read mode the hover the mouse at the bottom of the page and the floating Reader toolbar will appear.
Please let me know if this solves your issue.

Back up all data.
Triple-click the line of text below to select it, the copy the selected text to the Clipboard (command-C):
/Library/Internet Plug-ins
In the Finder, select
Go ▹ Go to Folder
from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-G. Paste into the text box that opens (command-V), then press return.
From the folder that opens, remove any items that have the letters “PDF” in the name. You may be prompted for your login password. Then quit and relaunch Safari, and test.
The "Silverlight" web plugin distributed by Microsoft can also interfere with PDF display in Safari, so you may need to remove it as well, if it's present.
If you still have the issue, repeat with this line:
~/Library/Internet Plug-ins
If you don’t like the results of this procedure, restore the items from the backup you made before you started. Relaunch Safari again.

How can I print a whole email document and not a "screen shot" like I get in the Print Preview option.

How can I print a whole email document and not a "screen shot" like I get in the Print Preview option. I'd like to print from "file" and print" like I can on other browsers (IE, for example). When I try to print from Firefox it grabs all my info (file folders, etc.) from the left side of the page. I need just the email information, not the entire screen information. Thank you!
-Bruce

I agree; I should, but I can't :) I have an orange Firefox drop down that I go to to print, and it allows me to select "print", "print preview" and "print setup", where I can change the margins. It always defaults to a full screen shot (I use Yahoo) and does not show just the email. I don't need to print what is on the left side of the screen or anything other than the email (I can achieve these things by using file-print from IE, so I know it is doable, and I am still going into Yahoo and using their email when I do it).
Hope this helps. I'm not a fan of IE, but I really don't like the print properties I'm getting here (I'm a long time Mozilla user, but I'm losing too much info with this option and can't afford that anymore).
Thanks for the help!

I have a pc and downloaded a trial version of Adobe Acrobat DC to create pdfs. I have followed the simple instructions but what I get is an entire screen shot saved instead of just my document. The instructions seem so simple. I can't imagine what I am do

I have a pc and downloaded a trial version of Adobe Acrobat DC to create pdfs. I have followed the simple instructions but what I get is an entire screen shot saved instead of just my document. The instructions seem so simple. I can't imagine what I am doing wrong. Have project I need to submit today. Please help.

Unfortunately, what you describe isn't a common problem. It is pretty surprising, but hopefully it's a simple as clicking or pressing the wrong thing. So, to find this out we need to know, step by step, at the most basic level, what you click or type EXACTLY and what you see. That should let us get to the cause.
