How do you remove a background for PDF?

I am a student and all my PowerPoint lectures are sent to me before they begin.  I take those lectures put them into keynote then open them in notability as a PDF.  This allows me to record the audio of the lecture and take notes directly on the slides.  However, some teachers use dark or colourful backgrounds that make annotating them a bit frustrating.  I want to remove the backgrounds in the same way I could if I selected print "With Backgrounds: off"
Is there a way to either delete the backgrounds or print to PDF without the backgrounds?
Thanks

Sorry if I wasn't clear.  I do not want to print the slides, I want them in a PDF format without the background.
Yes you said in your first post you wanted a PDF without background.
On my mac I can select print to PDF but there is no such option on the iPad (I think?).
What has this got to do with an iPad, you asked about producing a PDF file?
Is there no way to remove the background without printing a hard copy?
As I suggested,    File > Print > PDF    will produce a PDF file without the background if you select the "don't print slide backgrounds" option in the print dialogue box.
This is a popular straight forward procedure and is easily achieved.

    how do you remove the background from an image thathas a white background?

    First, change the background layer to a normal layer if needed, by dragging the padlock to the trash can.
    Then use the quick selection tool or magic wand tool to select your background.
    Now you can either delete the background, or click the icon at the bottom of the layers panel that looks like a circle inside a square. This icon will convert the selection to a mask.
    The advantage of the mask is, it is non-destructible. In that you can change your mind at any time. Whereas deleting pixels is permanent once you close the file and there is no duplicate files. (A way around this is to make a duplicate layer and hide it. But that does make the file larger.)

    Time to dial down on the crazy and explain the reasoning behind such a drastic move.
    ICMP is part of the TCP/IP stack, you can't just pull it out like a block on top of a tower, your NIC will stop working if you try to mess with it.
    However, you can put your computer in stealth mode, which it will ignore various incoming requests.

  • How do you remove the background of a presentation?

    Just to be clear I do not want a hard copy of the presentation.  I want to have a digital version without the background that looks similar to the hard copy version keynote makes when you select print "With Backgrounds: off"

  • How do you remove a reminder for a new version of MacKeeper?

    This notice is a window that seems to be stuck in the upper right corner of my screen. I can't drag it off

    Remove the "MacKeeper" crapware as follows.
    Note: These instructions apply to the version of the product that I downloaded and tested in early 2012. I can't be sure that they apply to other versions, nor do I intend to repeat the test.
    IMPORTANT: "MacKeeper" has what the developer calls an “encryption” feature. In my tests, I didn't try to verify what this feature really does. If you used it to “encrypt” any of your files, “decrypt” them before you uninstall, or (preferably) restore the files from backups made before they were “encrypted.” As the developer is not trustworthy, you should assume that the "decrypted" files are corrupt unless proven otherwise.
    In the Finder, select Go ▹ Applications from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-A. The "MacKeeper" application is in the folder that opens. Drag it to the Trash. A dialog will pop up asking why you want to uninstall it. You don't have to provide that information. Enter anything you like in the text box, then click the Uninstall button. All the functional components of the software will be deleted. That's the only useful feature of "MacKeeper:" it deletes itself. Reboot.
    Do not try to uninstall by dragging the MacKeeper icon from the Dock to the Trash.
    Here are some general suggestions. If you want your computer to be usable, don't install crapware, such as “themes,” "haxies," “add-ons,” “toolbars,” “enhancers," “optimizers,” “accelerators,” “extenders,” “cleaners,” “defragmenters,” “firewalls,” "barriers," “guardians,” “defenders,” “protectors,” most “plugins,” commercial "virus scanners,” or "utilities." With very few exceptions, this kind of material is useless, or worse than useless.
    The more actively promoted the product, the more likely it is to be garbage. The most extreme example is the “MacKeeper” scam.
    The only software you should install is that which directly enables you to do the things you use a computer for — such as creating, communicating, and playing — and does not modify the way other software works. Never install any third-party software unless you know how to uninstall 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 remove password protection for Firmware

    I was told this might help fix the problem that I can not use an install DVD to boot my Mac. It only boots from an external Firewire HD with 10.5.8. It wont boot from an internal SATA drive with 10.6.3 either. When the option key is pressed during startup the boot SATA drive shows up as EFI Boot, not the name I gave the HD. If I select the EFI Boot it still wont boot from it. Eventually, the screen says I have to restart my computer. Thanks for any ideas.

    I did use Diskwarrior on that boot drive. I haven't had any problems with my hardware before and using a boot DVD. Although, my Leopard install disk is version 10.5.1, I'm sure I used it to install the system with my current hardware (NVIDIA 8800 GT). I'm up to 10.5.8 because of system software upgrades through Apple's software updates online. Any other thing I can try? Can I create a Boot DVD with the latest Leopard 10.5.8 on it? Do you think that would work or help? Figures that my extended warranty was over on May 25, 2010. I am getting another mac for my graphics business, what do you think of the new iMac 27" 2.93GHz Quad-Core Intel Core i7. I'm looking to hire someone in the near future. Thanks for your help!

  • How do you remove a downloaded podcast

    I clicked Free Doanload on a podcast. Now I want to delete it. It doesn't show up in iTunes under podcasts under ATV. How do you remove it?
    For that matter, the ATV is trying to sync podcasts that I have not asked it to sync. How do you reset the prefs so that it forgets this action?
    Some bugs here and there ...

    Actually, there is a little trash can next to the title which I never noticed. You select it and the download goes away. Nice touch.

  • How can I remove the background sound from the headphone jack for my MacBoo

    for my MacBook Air problem adding music intensifier (Panasonic ST-HT1000) to give it an unpleasant sound background that sounds like a whiz, it's not so loud, but it is an unpleasant .. after a short time can get used to, but the fizz does not pass, however, believe that it is a big problem.
    Further I notice that when MacBookAir disconnected from the charger, it remains quieter sound.
    At first thought that the headphone jack (3.5 mm Headphone:
    Connection: 1/8-Inch Jack) or wiere have problem, but tried 3 different cables, but that does change enything, the problem remains.

  • How do you remove back up data from the memory storage? my storage data states that i have over 80gb of data used for back ups and i dont know why as i use a external hard drive as a time machine .now my 250gb flash storage is nearly full

    how do you remove back up data from the memory storage? my storage data states that i have over 80gb of data used for back ups and i dont know why as i use a external hard drive as a time machine .now my 250gb flash storage is nearly full.. HELP!

    When Time Machine backs up a portable Mac, some of the free space will be used to make local snapshots, which are backup copies of recently deleted files. The space occupied by local snapshots is reported as available by the Finder, and should be considered as such. In the Storage display of System Information, local snapshots are shown as  Backups. The snapshots are automatically deleted when they expire or when free space falls below a certain level. You ordinarily don't need to, and should not, delete local snapshots yourself. If you followed bad advice to disable local snapshots by running a shell command, you may have ended up with a lot of data in the Other category. Ask for instructions in that case.
    See this support article for some simple ways to free up storage space.

  • How do you remove buttons icons from a large pdf all at once?

    How do you remove buttons icons from a large pdf all at once? I have a 1400 + pg doc that I am updating. It has icon buttons to return to the home page on each page but they were not duplicated properly and when you scroll through the doc, the buttons dance around. Now I want to redo these buttons but hate the idea of having to go to each page to delete the icon button so I can start new. Can it be done all at once?

    It's probably worth adding to try67's suggestion above that, if you're using the first option, you need to make sure the page display is continuous. (If you've got it set to view a single page only, Command+A will only select the fields on the active page.)

  • How do you remove a picture from a theme?

    Hi all gurus.
    This must be the most silly question so far in the forum but I have to ask again: How do you remove a picture from a theme?
    I uploaded a background picture for the Masthead Function Area but now I want to remove it. Since the correspodning field is blank when you go into the editor you can't erase the picture's URL
    What you can do is to browse to, and choose, a new picture and then erase the URL in the field. The mentioned area is then actually emptied and the color set in the field "Background Color of Masthead Function" is shown.
    But, and here is the problem, when you save the theme the picture is back again! Isn't there the possibility to show the background color, for which there is a field, instead of a picture? Do I really have to upload a picture just containing the color I want to have??? If so, that must be one of the most stupid functionaliteis I have seen in the portal so far, indeed...
    I'm most grateful for every suggestion of how to solve this in a decent way and not the idiotic "replace picture with another picture" way.
    Best regards
    Benny

    Hi Raghu.
    Unfortunately it didn't help. Their solution with writing "none" in the field is only applicable for those objects where you have a field determening ways of showing the object. There you have the different behaviours like "repeat", "non-repeat" and "none" and there you can write it directly in the field.
    The field of which I am talking doesn't have these options and hence not "none". I still tried it though but it didn't work, the picture was back after saving the theme.
    Best regards
    Benny
