How do I keep text in a converted file??

I want to convert a PDF file that I received as an email attachement. Can I convert it without saving it first. It is the type that will let you save a blank form but not the info typed in and I don't want to retype the entire form.

When I try to save it only the form is saved not the text that was typed in. I want to save the info so I don't have to retype it.Bob

Hi, Bob.Yes, CreatePDF will allow you to save a PDF file as a Word file, so you can then type and add text to that Word file. If you received it as an email attachment, it will be easiest to: 1) save it to your computer's desktop, 2) upload it to the CreatePDF service.Please let us know if you have additional questions or issues.Regards,Dave

How can I keep the formatting when converting from Word to pages?

How can I keep the formatting when converting from Word to pages?

Use only formatting that is supported (in the same manner) in both applications. You'll need to find which that is through trial and error. Beyond those formatting options, you'll need to do some corrections, as Fruhulda suggests.

How do I put text into an Edge File that clients can edit easily afterwards

Hi
Can anyone explain how I can put text into an edge file (styled with google fonts) and make it so that clients can access the text and update the text as they require?
Previous suggestion was dynamically loading a .txt file - any instructions would be most appreciated.
Thanks.

Hi Resdesign!
Your code is very useful to learn how to use Json in Adobe Edge Animate!
But I have a question: why you use ( i ) as argument of the function UpdateInfo and when you recall it you use ( index )?
$.getJSON('slides.json', function(data){
          //for(var i=0; i<data.length; i++){
function updateInfo(i){
                    sym.$("photo").css({"background-image": "url('"+data[i].image+"')"});
                    sym.$("pillar").html(data[i].pillar);
                    sym.$("what").html(data[i].what);
                    // position
          index = -1;
          sym.$("btn").click(function(){
          index++;
                    if (index>=5){
                              index = 0;
          updateInfo(index);
Many thanks for your attention!

How can I keep lion from generating .DS_Store files on windows network partitions, but not disable it for all network partitions?

How can I keep lion from generating .DS_Store files on windows network partitions, but not disable it for all network partitions? I am fimilar with changing the setting for all network partitions(defaults write com.apple.desktopservices DSDontWriteNetworkStores true), but that is undesirable when I connect my laptop to my home network. A preferable solution would be where I could control the writing of these files based on disk format (NTFS vs HFS+).

Go to MacUpdate or CNET Downloads and search for ds_store. There are numerous utilities for preventing them from being transferred to Windows systems.

You can't. The commandline parameters for Acrobat and Adobe Reader do not allow any type of commands to be run.

CS6 Beta ended by crash - How/Where to keep my Auto-Saved Recovered file ?

Hello,
I was working on Photoshop CS6 beta on Lion OSX since one month with no problem.
Yesterday seemed to be the last day of use (1st june annonced however) and Photoshop CS6 Beta shutted down since I was working on it.
On the re-opening it asks for a licence key so I try to buy one month rental on the e-shop but the 3 bank cards tested failed. So I gave a call to the commercial service and they told me that they do not take in charge rental but only full licence and that I can download the trial for one more month if I want to.
So, I will replace the beta by the trial.
But :
- How can I keep my Auto-saved Recovered file I was working on when crashing (pretty important work)
- Where the recovered file is saved on the hard-drive ? And, can I make it works whith CS6 non-beta ?
A lot of thanks in advance for your help.
Kind Regards

As I understand it - having not (fortunatley) had the opportunity to test this - if PS crashes and you have auto-save switched on, you need to re-launch PS and it will automatically open with the recovered file(s) in the state they were at when auto-save last saved them. Auto-save stores files temporarily in a special folder that's located at the same file path as your scratch disk location. (My scratch disk is at root level on a seperate drive, so it's easy to see the auto-save folder if I look there, but if you can locate your scratch disk, you should see the auto-save folder also.)
Of course, the fact that you can no longer open PS is going to present a problem here. I'm not sure if you could re-access the file via the trial version once that was installed and pointing to the same scratch disk area.
I might have got this wrong, but I think it's correct... Feel free to disprove my post!

How do I keep text columns visible?

Hi, When I create text columns and rows in the Area Type Options box they preview but disappear the moment I
click on them or try to put guides on them. How do I keep them visible?
Any suggestions.
Regards'
Ovidivo.

Now I understand you. You are talking about the dividers between the columns, not the text box.
No, you can't select the box by clicking on them, nor can you snap guides to them.
In fact they're only there to show you the maximum width of the columns.
The only way to keep them visible is to have the box selected.
Otherwise, I have always preferred linked single column text boxes in Illie.
It's easier to control text flow that way, but that's only my personal preference.

Basic question on how to change menu text in this FLA file

I am kind of new to Flash and I am just a bit stuck on where
I am suppose to edit the menu text in the flash file I purchased
(link below).
I can see where to edit the hyperlinks in the action script
for each menu item but I can find the text (e.g. I want to change
the word “Our Gallery” and type
“Competitions”
http://www.abcpchelp.com/header3_fv8.fla

Hello IawaGuy:
Thanks for getting back to me. I've been really having a
problem with this flash header. Being new to some of these programs
doesn't help much. It's been a learning curve for me. I used a
program called Flash Decompiler Trillix to convert the swf to fla.
and converting the symbols as text so that I could edit them. It
turned out that the text that came up was a jumble of letters which
I had to decifer. I was finally able to change the all the text to
what they were supposed to be. After I exported it back into the
website in Dreamweaver the links on the drop down menus didn't
work.
It's as if the layers aren't connected in some way. The main
links work but I can't access the drop down part which also contain
links as well. I hope you can help me with this.
Thanks,
Glenn

How do you change text on a PDF file

If at all possible, you don't. You get the original (pre-PDF file), you edit that.
Adobe Acrobat has some very limited facilities which sometimes allow very simple text edits to PDF (e.g. change a phone number).

How can I change text height without converting to outlines?

I work in a sign company and often need to set up text at specific sizes. When text is CAPS it isn't so bad, but when in Title Case it can be a pain....
For example, if I need 2" high letters, generally it would be relative to the capitalized version of the first letter of the word (regardless of ascenders and descenders).
Some times I need to do several at a time, so changing them individually is very time consuming when I have to convert each word to outlines and then adjust each word for compensating for ascending and descending letters.
I'm wondering if there is a quicker way to accomplish this without converting the curves? Also, I notice that when I change the font size (in Character palette) to 2", for example, when outlining the text is actually smaller.

signguy(there),
You may:
1) Tick Edit>Preferences>General>Use Preview Bounds;
2) Select the Type and Effect>Path>Outline Object.
That will reduce the Bounding Box to the actual bounds of the letters, and keep the Type editable.
Remember to untick Edit>Preferences>General>Use Preview Bounds before you get a reverse issue.

How do you keep text box formatting data after saving and closing a PDF? (Acrobat XI)

I love that Acrobat XI has the feature "Edit Text & Images". It saves me and my company time when modifying PDFs for our clients. Though I am having some formatting woes...
When I insert a new text box into the document, I can span the entire text box from top to bottom of the page. I can type whatever I want in it and it makes it simple for editing later. Though, when I save the document, close it, and reopen it, all the text that was in one huge text box is broken out into multiple text boxes (per line of text). This makes it a pain to do any edits to the document because the text overlaps and does not wrap (different text boxes over one another). How can I stop this from happening? Is there a way to combine multiple text boxes maybe? What is the best solution to this issue? (running trial version of Acrobat XI on Win7 64-bit)

Why we have chosen not to use comments is due to the how jumbled they become on a page. We are basically going back and putting detailed annotations/footnotes (with numbered markers) to identify what portion of the page the functionality lives/exist. Comments also sometimes close so you cannot find them very easily...
I have just figured out with this form text field solution, I can't use underlined text...sigh...
Update: Figured out the underlined text, CTRL+I
