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.

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.

You can use PDF Buddy, the online PDF editor that makes it easy to add text, images, and annotations on top of scanned PDF files.

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).

You can make a PDF file out of you notes and handouts but using the Adobe PDF printer.
Open your PowerPoint Document then go to “File” “Print”
Select ‘Adobe PDF” Printer
Under slides, select which way you want to print. Note it will not print to a printer but to a PDF file.
After then go into printer Properties and Setup PDF properties, do the following: (see second image below)
Default: PDF/A 1-b
Adobe Security: none (change as needed)
Adobe Output folder: Prompt for Adobe file name
Adobe Page size: Letter (change as needed)
Check the following check boxes
View Adobe PDf Results,
Add Document Information,
Rely on system fonts only,
Delete Log files for successful jobs.
Select OK
A pop will ask you where you want to save the document. The file extension should be PDF. After giving the file name select okay and the file should popup as a PDF. Down side is if you want to speaker notes included then you will have to do another file, like wise with just screen shots then combine into one PDF document.
I used Acrobat IX Pro. So to do this you need Acrobat IX or X Pro.
Hope this will help.

How can i save a large pdf document in two parts

how can i save a large pdf document in two parts

i cannot figure this out, either. and i am also not able to set a custom page size to tile (in this case, tabloid/landscape). the dialog box defaults to my ppd for my epson printer (max size = letter) even when i select the drop down for "printing" to a post script file. I've been using illustrator since it's first release and i'm really surprised that this is rudimentary step in finalizing docs for release has been complicated.

How can I edit an existing pdf file? I just need to replace some text

my boss wants me to amend a pdf document and I've been doing it wrong. The programs I have are illustrator, in design and photoshop hope you can help.
thank you in advance.

I have amended a pdf before sometime ago but totally forgotten what I did.
But I do know it can be done
The fact that you edited one PDF doesn't mean you can edit another. There are many possible PDF "recipes" which may or may not result in direct edit-ability.
In your original post, you state you've "been doing it wrong."
In post #2, you state "it didn't work."
In post #4 you state "it doesn't allow me..."
It would be a lot easier to advise you if we had more detail in terms of how you're going about your attempts to edit, and what actually happens when you try. For example:
     "I use the Type Tool and click/drag to select text, but it makes a new text box instead."
     "I can't select individual objects. It looks like everything is grouped in one big frame"
     "When I click on text, it gets elected like objects, with anchor points all around."

How can I disable the "this PDF document might not be displayed correctly" notification?

Almost all PDF files produce the "this PDF document might not be displayed correctly" message when viewed with the built-in PDF viewer.
This message does not convey useful information. It appears on almost all PDF files (even though they usually work correctly after all); it sometimes fails to appear even on files that don't work (so it does not accurately predict whether a given file will work); when a file doesn't work, there is no way to make it work short of using an external viewer (so the error I'm being warned about is not something I can fix); and it demands a user action to dismiss it EVERY TIME it appears (so it places a disproportionate demand on my attention). How can I disable it?
Please note that I am not looking for instructions on how to disable the built-in PDF viewer. I just want to turn off the warning message.

The only way to stop this message is to disable the built-in PDF Viewer and use another viewer.<br />
On Linux you only have an older version of the Adobe Reader available, so you may have to open the PDF files in an external viewer like evince.
You can set the pdfjs.disabled pref to true on the <b>about:config</b> page to disable the build-in PDF viewer.
You can check the value of the plugin.disable_full_page_plugin_for_types pref on the about:config page and remove the application/pdf part if present or reset the pref to the default via the right-click context menu if you want to display PDF documents in Firefox with another application (i.e. not the built-in PDF Viewer).

How can I silently print all PDF documents that are opened automatically?

For a special terminal PC I want to print all PDF's that are opened to be printed automatically and without user interaction. The PDF is loaded in an iFrame in the browser, this PDF then needs to be printed.
I don't want to modify the PDF's, the PDF's are supplied by another resource.
I was thinking about using a folder level script that prints each PDF document automatically as soon as it is opened, but I don't know how to accomplish this.

I don't think the installation process will allow that unless the printer is connected.
Incorrect. Win or Mac, you can install a printer driver w/o the printer being connected.
I have tried MS PowerPoint (which can't seem to accept paper wider than 56 inches) and have used NeoOffice Draw
You're using the wrong tools. PP shouldn't even be in consideration; I don't know about NeoOffice, but I tried its cousin LibreOffice, and it has issues with custom paper sizes; which is not surprising, given what these apps were designed for.
What you need for actual banners (not web page banners) is a vector drawing tool or a DTP app. I'd say Illustrator or InDesign, but Adobe CS is expensive, and, if you're thinking of PowerPoint for this job, you're not ready for it.
You can try Pages; although not quite DTP, it can do the job and it's inexpensive. There are other options, such as Swift Publisher (a DTP app) or Intaglio (a drawing app) -- both are more expensive than Pages, but still affordable; or you can go open source with Scribus (DTP) or InkScape (vector; requires X11). You already know the ups and downs of using open source. (These are just examples; you can find others if you look for them.)
Although it's better to have Kinko's printer driver, to make sure of the correct options, you don't actually need it to print to PDF. You should be able to define a custom page size (eg, 12in × 72in) and create the PDF from it. Any app which uses the Mac OS X standard print function should be able to do it.

How can I edit a secure pdf?

I was sent a secure pdf file and asked to complete the information on each page. How can I do this?

Secured doesn't necessarily means that you can't fill in the form fields.
Did you try to do it? If you can't then you need to report it to the file's
authors...

How can I automatically close a PDF document after it is done printing?

Hello all,
To cut to the chase I am using the System Exec.VI to open a PDF with Adobe Reader 8.0 and printing the document. I can do this without a problem. The problem is I would like to have this window close automatically when it is done printing. I have seen on the web that the switch to make this happen is /t, but for some reason my pdf doc is not closing. My command line looks like this
"C:\Program Files\Adobe\Reader 8.0\Reader\AcroRd32.exe" /t "path to the file" "default printer name"
Is there another way to terminate the window not using switches in the command line statement?
I have tried using active x calls to open the doc and print but I am not seeing any print options in the active x calls. I have searched thourgh a large portion of the classes and could not find any print statements. I have also tried opening the doc with the system exec.vi and priting and then closing it with active x but I get an error message back.
Has anyone had any success in opening a pdf doc, printing and then closing the window automatically afterwards?

Hi gammalight,
i use Adobe Reader 7.0 and it works in this way for me. The document is printed with the default printer.
Mike

How Can I Disallow Sending a PDF Document via Email?

http://www.tek-tips.com/viewthread.cfm?qid=1528701&page=1
nha khoa.com/showthread.php?t=145
I'm using Adobe Acrobat 8 Standard.
I've gotten the test document setup in such a way that at least the typical person could not print it, send it as an email attachment, nor save the file within Adobe Reader 8.
However, if that same person were to open the file with Foxit PDF reader, they could email it as an attachment (though they can't do the others).
What I want to know is if there is a way to specifically disallow a pdf file from being sent as an attachment from within the pdf application? For Adobe, I just had to check the box next to "hide menu bar" and "hide tool bars", but leave "hide window controls" unchecked.
But of course, Foxit reader, and I'd imagine others, don't recognize the code for the display defaults. So for those, I'd need something else. I did not see an option under security for disabling email. Is there any way to do so?
The PDF files will be shared via a SharePoint site. So if there is some other better way of locking them down via SharePoint, that'd be fine as well.
I'll post more detail if need be. Thanks for any suggestions.
"If to err is human, then I must be some kind of human!" -Me

There's no way to prevent someone attaching a PDF to an email (or any other file-level operation on it) - to view a PDF it MUST be downloaded to the client's computer, and once there it's a regular file just like any other. There is no "streaming" concept within PDF.
You can secure the PDF so only certain people can open it (for example using certificate policies or even DRM) but they can still move the file about - it's only at the stage of opening it where the security control starts.
And you're correct - non-DRM 'permissions' security on a PDF is largely just smoke and mirrors for anyone who can open the file, as removing your print/edit/display preferences is a 10-second job. The only real case of a PDF being "uncrackable" is if the document has a very long OPEN password and the user doesn't know what it is. If they can get as far as seeing the pages on their screen, they can do pretty much anything with it.

How can I edit text in pdf?

newbie here to editing text in a pdf. I make a document in InDesign and exported it into a pdf. I tried to change the text in the pdf, using the touch up tool but it won't let me change it. What am I doing wrong?

That depends on what type of edits you want to do.
You can use the touchup text tool to make some changes to text (this assumes that the person on the other end has the exact same fonts installed). The touchup object tool can be used to remove images...Have them look under the "tools" menu to see what is available. Different ones are there depending on their version of Acrobat.
Why are you having them make edits (just asking to see if there is a better way of doing this because really, you don't want to go down this road)?
Do they really need to make edits or are they just marking up changes they want done in the document so you can do them? If that's the case, have them use the comment tools.
There are way too many things to go wrong when you start editing PDF's. They really should be considered simply a digital piece of paper and nothing more.
