How do you change MS Word to pdf file?

I have just signed up for the free adobe xi which told me from the outset that I could use it to make a pdf file. I can't figure out where to find out how to do this.

Hi Betty,

    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 the size of PDF files ?

    how can i change the size of PDF files? when i convert documents in the acrobat browser it seems the files become larger then normal pdf files, this is, i compare with other files that people send to me and i realise that they are smaller than my converted files, even if they have more pages.

    A lot depends on the form of the PDF. Is it graphics, a scan of a text file, pure text, or other? What version of Acrobat are you working with.
    You can do a save as to get a WORD file, but do not expect great results. The ability to get a decent WORD file depends on what the form of PDF you are working from. If it was created from WORD with tags and all, you might get good results. If not, you might get a lot of messed up results.
    Explain what you are starting with and your ultimate goal. Also check the audit of the file (should be under PDF Optimize) to see where the file information is concentrated (text, fonts, graphics, other).

  • How can you change individual words in a PDF using javascript?

    Hi,
    I am trying to do some simple text replacement in a PDF file using Acrobat. Specifically, I want to do some simple transliteration of words or partial transliteration. For instance, I would like to change a word like "red" to "ρed". This is to help me get used to the Greek alphabet step by step.
    Anyway, I downloaded Acrobat and there is no feature to do a single letter search and replace -- only word replacement. I have a Computer Science degree and decided to investigate the javascript capabilities to see if I can make those a simple letter replacement script. However, I have gotten to the point where I can cycle through every word in the PDF (using functions like getPageNthWord), and I can make a replacement on the string returned using something like: val.replace(/r/, "ρ"). However, I don't know how to replace the word in the PDF file....such as with a hypothetical function setPageNthWord (which does not exit). I have found the online documentation very thin on this, and I am scratching my head. Perhaps, it is something to do with the PDF format that I do not understand. So, is there a way to simply change text of a PDF file, like I am asking? All I am looking for is simple script to change a letter to another across a PDF.
    thanks if you can help

    JS can't edit the text in a PDF file directly. There are workarounds, like
    using a redaction with overlay text or simply placing a new field or
    annotation on top of the old text with the new one, but they are all far
    from perfect and won't cause a "reflow" of the document, so if the two
    texts are not of the same length the result will look odd. Also there's the
    issue of which font to use (font family, color, size, etc.), which JS can't
    know so you'll have to tell it.

  • How do you change default settings for Pdf document viewing?

    Somehow the default setting for all my PDF documents and photos is now ColorSync. How do I change the main default setting, which I think should be Safari?

    The default is Preview, and you change it thus:
    Select a pdf file, rightclick and select 'Get Info', in the pane that opens scroll down to the section marked 'Open With', select Preview and check the box to 'Change All'

  • How do you make a button download pdf file in edge animate?

    Hi does anyone know the code or know how to make a download button in edge animate, that when you click the button it will fetch a pdf file from your pc root folder and offer it to download.

    Hi Wayne,
    To make a button download a PDF, you'll have to upload your PDF somewhere online and add the link to your button in Animate using the Open URL button in the actions popup.
    Here's a good tutorial which will get you started with some of the basics of Animate, including how to create buttons. The link on your button would just be the URL of your PDF.
    Cheers,

  • How do I change page margins on pdf file on acrobat?

    Hi there
    Could someone please help me. I need to change the page margins on a pdf file using adobe acrobat.  The page size is 7" by 10" which I have been able to change.  I need to change the page margins to:
    Left - .75"
    Right - .25"
    Top - .25"
    Bottom - .25"
    I know it is probably something really simple but I just can't figure it out.
    Thank you for your help
    Kate

    Not simple at all. Actually, Acrobat isn't built to do this type of thing. You would want to make those changes in the original document and create a new PDF.
    The main problem here is that Acrobat will not reflow the text as the margins grow.

  • How can you change path for converted PPD files?  Default goes to /var/...

    Hi,
    I'm pretty new to the Solaris 10 world and I'm attempting to troubleshoot some Xerox print issues. One of our Oracle Users may send a print job through with an HP Initialization String...yes you read that right, and cause the Printing services to Yo-Yo.
    I've installed the Xerox Printer Administration Tool 4.30.28 and then installed the most current driver package. Thing is, either the services will still bounce or the job will not print. Understandable because of the HP Initialization String.
    However, I tried using the Solaris Print Manager w/ a generic Xerox driver and the Print Services did not bounce. I thought then that I would try using the actual Xerox Workcentre 7655 driver by converting the driver from Xerox and using the PPDMgr tool. Thing is, I could figure out how to really change the path so that the driver would get dropped in the /usr/lib/lp/model/ppd/system/foomatic directory.
    Any way to do this?
    Thank you for your time,
    Mr Mister

    Hello Eric
    I am using the "UserDefinedErrorsDir" in LabVIEW 7.1 /7.1.1 Windows and Linux.
    But there is a "syntax" problem. Let me explain this:
    If you enter
    UserDefinedErrorsDir=C:\
    into your LabVIEW.ini File, LabVIEW will not search the Files in your C:\      Directory...
    LabVIEW search the *-errors.txt Files in the
    C:\errors\
    Directory!
    That mean that you have to create a folder with the name errors in your UserDefinedErrorsDir and after that you only have to copy all your *-errors.txt Files into this folder.
    Happy Wiring

  • How do you change the default permissions for files?

    I have all my users saving (via AFP) to an Xserve RAID, I am using ACL to control who has access to certain area.
    This is fine when moving files in the finder, all ACL are respected, however when saving files from Photoshop it ignores the ACL's.
    So if user A saves a file they become the owner- which is fine, but the group and everyone permissions are read only, so when user B ammends the file they get a permission warning when they try to save, the work round I'm using is to trash the file just before you try to save- not ideal cos if the save fails you've lost the work.
    What I would like is for the default permission to be group "design" Read and Write and leave everyone as read only
    So when any designer goes to oversave a file in photoshop they can do.
    I needf to leave ACL's on as they are working well in every other situation, i.e I have certain folders set so once images have been added they cannot be deleted or renamed by certain users.
    It only seems to be Photoshop that gives us this problem, Quark files and other docs are able to be saved according to the ACL

    Hi
    There are some important distinctions and points to be made here.
    POSIX Permissions are always set for every file and folder. ACLs are optional for any file, folder or share point and work IN ADDITION to POSIX Permissions. SACLs (Service Access Control Lists) are optional for specific services such as AFP, FTP, SMB, Mail etc and are independent of files and folder as well of standard POSIX Permissions and file system ACLs. Allow access is cumulative and Deny access is first match.
    ACLs supersede but don’t necessarily override Standard UNIX permissions.
    The best way to use ACLs is to enable Access Control Lists on the desired volume, create the share point folder from within Workgroup Manager, define the Users and Groups and then drop the relevant User and/or Group into the ACL window and define access privileges from there. Don’t be tempted to use the Standard UNIX permissions in addition to ACLs as all sorts of problems can ensue.
    Privileges and access can quickly get confused and share points can be broken. Deny settings defined in ACL take precedence over all other privileges settings. Deny settings defined using Standard UNIX as well as ACLs can, in some cases, mean share points becoming inaccessible to all users even those with administrative privileges.
    Wherever possible try not to set access privileges using the Finder.
