Get information from one PDF to another.

I have two PDF's one is a flat document with text, the other is a form. I would like to extract information from the flat file and fill in the form on the second PDF. I would also like to create a button that saves the document as a new file name with information from the document.
more info:
I would need to do this on an ipad (the actual work not the Programing).
I have Adobe X pro and live cycle.
The text from the first file that I need is always in the same place for example "Job number: Xxxxxxx".
any part of this would be great but if you know a way to do all of this it would be amazing.

How about at least using JavaScript to "saveas" to a new name? I have seen people online talking about something similar to this but it always includes a path name which the ipad does not use.
Also, how would I do it on a PC? I could have the person who creates the first document run a script on their computer and send me both files.

How can I transfer information from one ipad to another?

how can I transfer information from one ipad to another ?

What kind of information? You can sync things like Contacts and Calendars by using iCloud. You can backup one iPad to iTunes on a computer and then sync the backup to the other iPad. You can configure your iTunes content and sync the same content to both iPads.
It is based on what you want to do. Or are you looking for a way to send files from one iPad to another wirelessly? There are apps to do things like that, as well as cloud services, such as DropBox.

If you could drag and drop pages before, it wasn't in Reader. You no doubt had Adobe Acrobat (Pro or Standard) which shouldn't be confused with Adobe Acrobat Reader. They recently added Acrobat to the name of Adobe Reader so the confusion about which product you had and/or have is understandable.

How can I get songs from one laptop to another?

I have all my music from one iTunes, and to put the songs in the iPod and then in the other computer using "transfer purchases" isn't working as it is only transferring apps. That's why I need to get it from one computer to another. Thank you.

Linking from one PDF to another: Is there a more efficient way?

Some background first:
We make a large catalog (400pages) in Indesign and it's updated every year. We are a wholesale distributor and our pricing changes so we also make a price list with price ref # that corresponded with #s printed in the main catalogue. Last year we also made this catalog interactive so that a pdf of it could be browsed using links and bookmarks. This is not too difficult using Indesign and making any adjustments in the exported PDF. Here is the part that becomes tedious and is especially so this year:
We also set up links in the main catalog that go to the price list pdf - opening the page with the item's price ref # and prices... Here's my biggest issue - I have not found any way to do this except making links one at a time in Acrobat Pro (and setting various specifications like focus and action and which page (in the price list) to open) Last year this wasn't too bad because we used only one price list. It still took some time to go through and set up 400-500 links individually.
This year we've simplified our linking a little by putting only one link per page but that is still 400 links. And this year I have 6 different price lists (price tiers...) to link to the main catalogue pdf. (That's in the neighborhood of 1200-1500 double clicking the link(button) to open Button Properties, click Actions tab, click Add..."Go to page view" , set link to other pdf page, click edit, change Open in to "New Window" and set Zoom. This isn't a big deal if you only have a few Next, Previous, Home kind of buttons....but it's huge when you have hundreds of links. Surely there's a better way?
Is there anyway in Acrobat or Indesign to more efficiently create and edit hundreds of links from one pdf to another?
If anything is unclear and my question doesn't make sense please ask. I will do my best to help you answer my questions.
Thanks

George, I looked at the article talking about the fdf files and it sounds interesting. I've gathered that I could manipulate the pdf links by making an fdf file and importing that into the PDF, correct?
Now, I wondered - can I export an fdf from the current pdf and then change what is in there and import it back into the pdf. I've tried this (Forms>More Form Options>Manage Form Data>Export Data) and then opened the fdf in a text editor but I see nothing related to the documents links... I assume this is because the links are 'form' data to begin with - but is there away to export something with link data like that described in the article link you provided?
Thanks

How to copy form data from one pdf to another?

Hi,
I have created a pdf, added form data to it. Saved the form data as a fdf file - all good.
I've updated the document and saved as a new pdf and would like to load the fdf data into it.
So I select tools - forms - more forms options, and press the "import" function - it goes grey and nothing happens.
If I re-open the document the import function remains greyed out.
I can find no way to import this data.... any ideas?
I've tried going into form edit mode - adding a new field. The import option is no longer greyed out so I click it and can select the fdf file hit open and ... the dialogue disappears and nothing happens.
Is my Acrobat XI 11.0.07 badly installed - or what?

You need to learn about the different types of PDFs. PDF/ A is an archive format that does not allow changes. PDF/X is used for graphics exchange
For forms I would use only the PDF with a target version. Do not use the Optimizer feature.
Forms always become larger due to the need to include the font for the various form fields. You might have to review the type fonts used by the form fields and one standard font as much a possible.
It is possible to use the FDF file to move field values from one PDF to another.
If you are trying to replace the underlying content and keep the form fields, use the replace pages.

If using the built-in Maps app, directions are not available everywhere. Read here:

If that's your problem, download the Google Maps app.

How can I copy GPS information from one image to another?

I bought a Canon S100 specifically for its GPs and movie capability. On a recent vacation, I used the S100 and a Nikon D300. In cases where images were taken with both cameras in approximately the same place, I would like to copy the GPS information from the S100 CR2 files to the D300 NEF files. Does anyone know how to do this or if there is any plugins that will do it?

The added benefit of using GeoSetter to copy the information from one photo to another, is that you can see where every already-tagged photo is on a Google map to make sure the location is actually correct. Sometimes the camera clock is off a few seconds or minutes and you can easily figure how what offset to use by watching where the existing photos show on the map.
Using the MS Pro Photo Tools to generate a track from the existing S100 photos and then using that track in GeoSetter to assign the rest, with interpolation enabled, seems like the best course of action if the S100 track information is no longer available.
When using an external program to Geotag images that are already in LR, to be safe you should first save all the metadata to XMP files in the folder you’re going to tag, then exit LR, then geotag the photos, then restart LR and read information from all the XMP files.
Another benefit of GeoSetter is that you can assign the locality information to the photos that already have just coordinates in them.

When moving a page from one pdf to another I see a message "consolidating fonts" and the added page does not view properly

I am working with multiple PDF files in Acrobat Pro XI. Sometimes when I move a page from one PDF to another it does not view properly. It was fine in the source PDF, but not when moved to the desired PDF. I also see a message momentarily across the bottom of my screen that says "consolidating fonts". What must I do to fix this?

Lloyd ,
Follow these steps for Acrobat 11 .
Launch Acrobat>Tools>Print Production>Acrobat Distiller
Now in Acrobat Distiller follow these.
Select Standard in Default settings.
Go to Settings and select Edit Adobe PDF Settings.
Select Fonts and in the font source window select the fonts you want to Add.
Click Save As and then OK.
See if this helps.
Regards
