How can I take my pdf book and revert it to indesign so I can make a few changes on it?

As far as I know, the best approach is to place pdf-file into a new InDesign document with “Multi Page Importer” script. Then create a new layer above the layer with PDFs and make small edits there creating new objects – text frames, etc – and hiding the original parts in the PDF below.
That isn't an option - the obscured content will often still export and it'll completely mess up accessibility and compliance.
The only true option would be to export a Word file from the PDF (using Acrobat Pro), import the text into a brand new INDD document using the usual style-mapping workflows, then export the images from the PDF separately and place them all back into the layout. Quicker than typing it all in again, but only just. Consider it a learning curve.

    Any help would so be appreciated.
    Thanks!

    Hi Sara,
    That is not what the online purchase showed me when I just subscribed to a year of Adobe ExportPDF Annual…Can this be changed toward Adobe PDF Pack subscription? Who can I contact to see if this is possible? A phone to call or specific department at Adobe to help?
    Please advise.
    Thanks

    Thanks again for the detailed instructions Srini!
    And I really hate to be a pest . . . but . . .
    Using your example and not modifying it, I get the e-mail form filled out correctly and the pdf attached, however, I'm not prompted to sign it.
    Any more clues?

  • How do I take a pdf out of my email and transfer it to adobe so I can print it off my pc?

    How do I take a pdf out of my email and transfer it to adobe so I can print it off my pc?

    Hi Sandy,
    I'd like to assist!
    I believe you are asking how to print a PDF from your email? If so, you can save a PDF file to your desktop like any other file (Word, Excel, etc). OR you can print the file directly from your email by opening the attachment and in the top left choosing the 'print' option.
    Please let me know if this helps and do not hesitate to ask further questions if you have them!
    Looking forward to hearing back from you.
    Kindest regards, Stacy

  • How can I recover my purchased books and PDF files in my library?

    How can I recover my purchased books and PDF files in my library?

    you can re-download all purchases from the iBooks store at any time. PDF's you will need to have kept the PDF on your hard drive or on a service such as Dropbox, then you can re-import them into iTunes.

  • How do i synch my pdf/books to my library. I was able to synch my ipod touch purchases by transferring them but can't figure out how to do my pdfs. Also why is my ipod picture greyed out-the one that lets my move the icons around.

    How do i synch my pdf/books to my Itunes  library. I was able to synch my ipod touch app purchases by transferring them but can't figure out how to do my pdfs. Also why is my ipod picture greyed out-the one that lets my move the icons around.
    I am afraid if i don't get the pdfs into my book library, i will lose them when i update to IOS 5-is that true?

    thank you-i have to check into the authorization and the account-i gave my husband my old ipod when i updated last year so both at one time have been on this computer but as it stands, it only comes up with my device when i plug into Itunes.
    i don't think i have any restrictions for installing apps although my normal way of doing it is to download from the ipod touch. i did find that all i had to do was right click on my device name and got the message to transfer my apps and then they showed up in my library. Also when i clicked the synch checkbox i was able to view the ipod touch picture without it being greyed out. after all that i was able toupdate to IOS 5 successfully except my videos and podcast, and pdfs  did not come over. This confuses me since i had dragged them over to my library to make sure that i had everything in my library and on my device. Not a big problem, since i just dragged them in itunes from my library to my device but sometimes i wonder if i understand the big picture:)

  • I bought the Adobe Photoshop Classroom in a Book for CS6 by accident and I have CC. I know, stupid mistake. But I can't take return the book. Is is similar enough to CC that I can still get use out of the book? Thank you so much

    Each version of Adobe products builds upon the previous ones.  Some things like filters and advanced features may evolve or become deprecated over time, but the basic tools have remained pretty much the same for decades.  As long as you know there are subtle differences between versions, I think you will still get a great deal of value from C in a B for CS6.

    To do this on your phone, copy and paste them into your document (tap and hold on the photo to copy it).  If you need to import it to your computer to do this, save it to the camera roll by tapping Edit, tap the photos you want to import, tap Share, tap Save to Camera Roll.  You can then import them to your computer using your usb cable (see http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4083).  Alternatively, attach them 3-4 at a time emails and send them to yourself.

  • How to sync up apple contact book and exchange contacts

    I have a bunch of contacts in my Apple Contact book but am using Outlook for Mac 2011 for email, contact management, and calendar.  I have read that you have to sync your Apple contact book to your exchange account rather than directly to the Outlook for Mac 2011 programs so you don't create duplicates (contacts coming from the Apple address book AND the Exchange server).  However, I can't find anything that tells me how to sync the Apple Contacts with my Exchange account.  I figure at that point once synced, my exchange account will push the new contacts from the Apple Contact book back into Outlook for Mac 2011 making everything whole. 
    Any help with this would be greatly appreciated.
    Thank you in advance.

    itsamacthing,
    Thanks for the quick response.  I do have the exchange service added and am only bringing the contacts down from the exchange side into the Contacts portion (not syncing mail, calendar, etc). It has seemed to create two different "sections' in the Apple Contacts Address book (Please see screenshot).  I was hoping to somehow merge/sync these two so I am always working out of one directory.  When I create a contact in my Outlook for Mac 2011 it dumps it in the "Exchange" section and up to my Exchange server.  However, when I create one on my iphone and sync the phone with this system via usb cable, it puts all new contacts created in the "On My Mac" section thus not moving it to my Exchange or Outlook for Mac 2011 causing new contacts to only sync with different sections based on where they were created.
    (As a side note, I have to sync via the firewire cable due to having over 10,000 contacts.  There was an issue with the previous release of IOS that caused massive problems with syncing over the air with that many contacts.  I've never fully recovered and have not had the hard to do over the air syncing again, hence the tethered sync).
    If there is anything I can do to get this rolled into one Address book that syncs from phone all the way through to Exchange server, I would appreciate any additional direction.  I've also included a second screen shot to show the difference between the Exchange contacts total (10,660) and the All on my Mac contacts total (10,774).  Ideally they would both say 10,774.
    Thank you again.

    PDF files cannot be natively opened in InDesign. They can only be placed as graphics.

    Hi,
    Can you please expand on your issue? As far as I can see all the previous functions of 11 are in 12 albeit shown differently. Using get info to edit date is still possible, again it looks and feels different.
