Help with cut and paste

Hello. Need a little help please. I have a 21 page pdf file. I would like to cut the text and paste into MS Word. By doing "select all" I am able to do this but only 1 page at a time. Is theire a way to extend the selection so that I get all 21 pages of text?
Thanks for your suggestions.

A PDF that contains a scanned image of a textual document will result in a 0 KB text file when Save as Text is used while viewing the PDF.
If OCR is applied to the PDF (with Acrobat as Reader does not provide this functionality) then Save as Text exports the OCR output to the text file.
When using Reader's select tool to select and copy the page content (the image) it is the image that is pasted into the Word file.
A PDF that has no renderable content has nothing to export to a text file via Save as Text.
So, it would appear that the copy image - paste image, 1 page at time, is what will have to be used.
A quick addendum -
If your working with an image of text and have Office 2007 you may be able to use Microsoft Office Document Imaging tool (not sure if tool is available in all Office versions) once the images are in a Word file.
Be well...

  • Help! Cut and paste audio artifacts!

    Hey all,
    Using Garageband once I received my Mac, I was amazed at how easily I could take two tracks, merge them together, and there was no noticeable sound between the two tracks that were combined. This was a welcome relief, as the two previous programs (GuitarTracks, Cubase) I was trying on my PC were leaving the an unwanted sound change between the two; like the stopping and starting on a voice recorder.
    With how great Garageband was making this cut and paste, stop and start process, I figured Logic would also make this rather expected process easy. However, once I started to cut and paste takes around in the program, I met with the same issue; audio artifacts due to the stop and start, cut and paste of tracks. So basically, I am left feeling as though I should do everything in one long take, which is absurd.
    Please, does anyone know how to cut and paste tracks/takes and no longer worry about the present artifact between pastes?
    Thanks!

    Ok, I will look into crossfading then!
    The manual has been intimidating, and I have a deadline for what I am working on, so unfortunately time is against me. Things that I think would be called one thing are called something different (quantizing & flex-time for example).
    I am using the newb version, Logic Express 9.
    Thanks for your help!
    No probelm, I think what you're describing is noise when trying to overlay one audio file on top of another at a junction point and have them blend smoothly together. Is that correct?

  • Quality Compromised with Cut and Paste?

    I have an iMovie that I already shared in media browser so I can burn to DVD. Now, I have a few extra minutes I want to add to the film.
    If I cut and paste the film in iMovie's Project Library so that I can then add the extra footage...Does this compromise the quality at all?

  • Problems with cut and paste within the code editor in JDeveloper 10.1.3 EA

    Copy and pasting doesn't work as expected. If I copy some code and paste it somewhere else, i get completely different code, (it seems to paste a piece of code from somewhere else in the source).
    I tried expanding + signs, this didn't help.
    I'am running JDeveloper on Windows XP Professional.
    Does anybody else have the same problem.
    Is this a bug?

    We've tracked down this issue thanks to Tullio's supplying us with a reproducible testcase. It's related to the "Automatically Copy Paste Imports" preference (which is on by default) in the Tools->Preferences->Code Editor category of IDE preferences. It seems to also be related to having renamed a source path directory to have a name that is only different by case from the name it originally had. Disabling this preference is a workaround for EA1.
    For example, if you started out by creating your workspace with a source directory named "Src", then later renamed it to "src", this seems related to the situation when this issue can occur. Renaming the directory back to match what it was before is another workaround for EA1.

  • Problems in Dreamweaver with cut-and-paste

    Hi there.
    I wondered if someone could help with a small problem within
    Dreamweaver CS4. If I have two different CSS style sheets open, and
    I highlight a certain section of one CSS stylesheet to take the
    rule to another CSS stylesheet, for some unknown reason as soon as
    I do "copy" the whole of the stylesheet is highlighted, the only
    way I can stop this from happening is to double-click on the "code"
    button at the top left-hand side of the Dreamweaver window. Is
    there any other way to stop this from happening. I am running
    Dreamweaver CS4 on the windows Vista platform.
    Thank you for reading this post and for any help you may be
    able to give.
    Regards, John.

    Hoorah!
    At last - someone else with the same problem!
    I have been leaving messages on here for ages to try to get some response from Adobe. Someone kindly suggested getting rid of the preferences folder, but that didn't solve the problem.
    I think its something wrong with Dreamweaver CS4. I have reverted back to CS3 until they come up with an upgrade!
    Out of interest does this happen straight away or after a period of time? I found if you quit Dreamweaver and restart it usually its ok for a while.
    Do you also have the same problem editing the code? I find I can't put the cursor anywhere WITHIN a chunk of PHP. The cursor highlights the whole lot. I have to click all over the place until it eventually works as normal - or I have to quit Dreamweaver and start again.
    Are you using a Mac too?
    Regards

  • I need help with cutting and changing an already made song in garage band on the IPad.

    For a school pep rally I'm looking to write some music on drums that our drumline will perform in the pep rally. In the song although I'm looking on taking a few measures out of the song "Some Nights" by Fun. and putting it during a long rest we'll have for a really good effect on the song. To do this I saw that garage band had a sampler where I could cut music and play those cuts instantly with a touch of a button, and I was hoping that it would be possible that I could buy the song and some how import it to garage band so that I could play around with it a little bit.
    I've still yet to find any way of doing this although and I'm looking for any suggestions you guys might have! The pep rally isn't for a good 3 or four weeks so I've got a good amount of time, But the sooner anyone can help the better!
                                                           Thanks for your time!
                                                                          Matt

    This is a poor way of doing this but the only way I found to do this is to record your music into the sampler using the microphone then record the sample. I don't like doing this because of clarity and lack of manipulating the track once created. It would be nice if GB added this feature. Also it would be cool if you could mix down the tracks into one so we could have more tracks to work with.

  • Trouble with cut and paste password for wireless network

    Command - C, Command-V did not let me paste wireless password from text edit. Any suggestions as to why? I was able to do so with right click.

    It is one of mine. Yes. It connects to it no problem, just doesn't connect to the actual internet. Network diagnostics has all green lights until the ISP and/or Internet point. If I walk through diagnostics, it will get to the point where it says that the network requires a WEP password. I don't know why it does that because my network is not password-protected (husband claims it doesn't work well with his VPN system to get into work network). If I leave it blank, the connection will work. Eventually, after the computer is put to sleep, I will have the same problem upon waking up. I just tried renaming the network and removing all preferred networks and rebooting. Let's see how that works.

  • Multiple problems: can't open two windows, browser doesn't close although window disappears, and after working for a while I loose my ability to cut and paste or use drop down arrows

    Maybe two weeks ago I discovered that I could no longer open two windows at a time (I can still open multiple tabs). I am also having problems with cutting and pasting, which is crucial to my on-line job. Plus, when I exit Firefox, it doesn't always shut down, so then when you go to re-open, of course, it won't (unless you go into process and turn it off). I have re-installed multiple times and I have also used restore. Nothing seems to be fixing this and I really, really don't want to use IE, especially for work.

    Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of your add-ons is causing your problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Themes).
    * Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.
    See
    * [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]]
    * [[Troubleshooting plugins]]
    If it does work in Safe-mode then disable all your extensions and then try to find which is causing it by enabling one at a time until the problem reappears.
    * Use "Disable all add-ons" on the [[Safe mode]] start window to disable all extensions.
    * Close and restart Firefox after each change via "File > Exit" (Mac: "Firefox > Quit"; Linux: "File > Quit")

  • N8 Photo Editing - how to use the cut and paste?

    Hello,
    I am trying to edit some photos - there is a an option to use an ellipse or magic wand.  I thought that was to cut and paste from the photos.
    All I can do is select and area - but how do I cut it. 
    I tried save, but it saves the whole image...
    Or am I just doing this wrong...
    Thanks,

    I was hoping to use the ellipse or magic want to cut and paste items in a certain shape to paste on other photos.
    I could do this on my N95-4.
    So there is no way to photo edit with cut and paste?
    Any idea what the ellipse and magic wand function do, and how do they work?

  • Cut and paste bug

    Im having an issue with cut and paste commands. I can't paste anything unless I copy first then cut. If I cut then try to paste edit>paste will be shaded out and commandX does nothing. Sometimes its not shaded out but will paste what I have previously copied.
    I found this out during a tutorial in which I had to cut and paste an effects paint layer to a new solid.
    Im using CS5.5 on Macbook pro i7 8GB OSX 10.7.2.
    So far I have tried - resetting preferences on start up. - Edit> purge >all. - Turning off system shortcuts. -Rebooting. None of these have made a difference. Anyone else had or having this issue? Any advise on what I should do next to try and resolve? Cheers.

    Followed your steps exactly and it's exactly like I said in my previous post. Cut and paste works for effects. Here's exactly what I did except for the part where I created the worst illustrator art that I've ever seen. Just two layers, lovely colors. The .ai file is imported as a comp with retain layer sizes selected. A black brush is chosen set to write on and silhouette luma. The size is adjusted to cover the line easily, I paint on the line, press the e key to reveal the effect in the timeline. It's there, it's also in the ECW so I select the effect, cut it, go to the composition, use Cmnd+Y to create a new layer and paste Cmnd + V and the paint effect is applied to the solid.
    There's something going on with your machine, some third party plug-in, some other app, some other issue that's preventing this from working.
    Here's my little movie of the whole experiment.
    I'd make sure that your AE version is the latest, that you have your memory and processing set to the defaults, and that you're not running any other apps while testing AE. If there's still a problem, file a bug. Your machine is not behaving as my machine and every other Mac I routinely work on is behaving.

  • Hi Everyone.  I have an old Mac Book.  I have saved a ton of emails in my inbox 'On My Mac'.  There are so many it is slowing down my computer.  Where do I find the folder with all the emails so I can cut and paste them to an external hard drive?Pls.help.

    Hi Everyone.  I have an old Mac Book with software updated to 10.6.8.  I have saved a ton of emails in my inbox 'On My Mac'.  There are so many it is slowing down my computer.  Where do I find the folder with all the emails so I can cut and paste them to an external hard drive? Pls.help.  Tks.

    Depending on which email client software you use
    the files should be in 'your home folder' library, esp.
    if you use Mail application.... ~/Library/Mail
    Since you don't specify what mail application,
    that would most be associated with the file.
    I notice there are some items to the right of your post
    where it says "more like this' so that may be worth a
    look to see if similar issues were answered. Also, the
    Help viewer in your system is a searchable database.
    Seems that google also brings up fair information, too.
    Do you have a complete bootable clone of your entire
    Mac system on an externally enclosed hard disk drive?
    Good luck & happy computing!

    No, the camera connection kit only supports the copying of photos and videos to the Photos app, it doesn't support copying content off the iPad. For your second camera instead of the SD reader part of the kit, does the iPad to camera cable not work with it for direct transfer to the iPad ?
    For Lightroom and Nikon software again no - you can only install apps that are available in the iTunes app store on your computer and the App Store app on the iPad, 'normal' PC and Mac (OS X) software are not compatible with the iPad (iOS). There are some apps that perform fairly basic editing functions that are available in the store, but nothing as sophisticated as, for example, Lightroom.
