How to OCR an image embed in a pdf page that already has some text?

I have a pdf page that has both texts and an image on it. I can not run OCR on the whole because I see the following error message.
Acrobat could not perform recognition (OCR) on this page because: This page contains rederable text.
Is there a way to limit the OCR only on the image but not the whole page?

The only way to OCR on the page would be to save the page (or the PDF) as a set of TIFF files (the set is created automatically). Then open the TIFFs in Acrobat (drag and drop works best). You can then OCR the result that is pure graphics. If there is anything other than a pure graphic on a page, Acrobat will not OCR.

How do I install 10.4.3 on Hard Drive that already has 10.4.11?

I have reason to believe my G4 with OS 10.4.11 has issues with the operating system. My System Pref page won't come up, iCal doesn't open and several other small things aren't working right. So, I want to re-install 10.4 on to the Hard Drive. When I attempt, I get a message that says "there is a newer OS version already installed" and it won't let me proceed. I booted from another Hard Disk and tried renaming the "SYSTEM" to something like "OLD_System" but it won't let me do that either. How can I remove the SYSTEM Folder so that I can re-install OS 10.4 on the same HD?

Reinstalling OS X
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?path=Mac/10.4/en/mh1103.html
which also explains the difference between 'archive and install' and 'erase and install'.
More about Installation options here:
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=301270
But before you do, try this:
Repairing permissions is an important part of regular maintenance, and should always be carried out both before and after any software installation or update.
Go to Disk Utility (this is in your Utilities Folder in your Application folder) and click on the icon of your hard disk (not the one with all the numbers).
In First Aid, click on Repair Permissions.
This only takes a minute or two.

If you were having any serious problems with your Mac you might as well complete the exercise by repairing your hard disk as well. You cannot do this from the same start-up disk. Reboot from your install disk (holding down the C key). Once it opens, select your language, and then go to Disk Utility from the Utilities menu. Select your hard disk as before and click Repair.
Once that is complete reboot again from your usual start-up disk.

How do I purchace OS X Lion on a Mac that already has Lion?

I bought a Mac Mini that came with OS X Lion on it. I would like to do a clean install, but I can't without the AppleID of the previous owner. I don't mind purchasing OS X Lion again, but the app store does not allow me to do that. How do I work around this problem?

Well, you are partially right, but:
- ‘Selling hardware does not mean selling software installed on it.’ Not necessarily, but Apple has traditionally sold its hardward AND software, i.e. the OS and some apps, depending from generation to generation.
- ‘However if you have mac which comes with an older OS X you cannot recovery the OS.’Not clear what you mean, e.g. that I cannot owe the older Mac OS x? I do have the licence for the OS which came with the mac.
– ‘It is the same situation as buying second hand iPhone with some apps left on it, you cannot redownload them because you do not own them’ This is correct, but the comparison is not good.
I will recheck this just for the sake of curiosity as Lion is licenced to all macs in my family. It is strange that the newest, with Lion pre-installed, cannot be redownloaded, if need be, as long as I owe the licence, which is included, as always been, with the hardware.
Or am I missing something?

Create your JavaFX application as an Applet... then embed the applet object inside your html. I'm sure if you create a javafx netbeans project and hit build... you get a html file that shows you how to load the built binary output into the page.

How can I remove a signature on a PDF file that I created using Preview on iMac computer??

How can I remove a signature on a PDF file that I created using Preview on iMac computer?? I inadvertently hit the icon on the Preview tool bar with an xS and a line through it. There is my signature in the middle of the PDF file I was editing. How do I get rid of it? Cannot select it. Cannot find any tools that allow me to delete it. The Preview documentation tells how to create and apply a signature, but not how to remove it. I think when a signature is added the doucment becomes locked from any editing.

Hey needadobehelp10,
Using Adobe Acrobat/Reader, you can simply change your PDF view settings under "View > Page Display > Single Page View"
Is this really you wish for?
Please let me know.

How to expand size of content on a PDF page

Hi,
I have a PDF page that is miniaturized and I want to expand it back to a full 8.5x11inches so I can print it out and see it at regular size.
The PDF page, itself, is on an 8.5x11 page at this point, but the content has become shrunk so that it occupies less than half of the current page. Obviously I can zoom in on the content and see it, but if I try to print it out, the content is shrunken, I can barely see it.
If I was to open the PDF in Photoshop I could use the crop tool and make the currently shrunken content back to regular letter page size, but i was wondering if this was somehow possible in Acrobat Pro 9?
So, can the content be expanded?
(sorry for the poor explanation)
Thanks for any help.
Phil

You can crop it, but the size will not change to letter. However, after cropping, you can print with expand to fit page selected. If you like you can expand this to a new PDF using print, though not generally the recommended approach. Do you have any idea how it was reduced in the first place? If so, have you tried the reverse process?

I have a jailbroked iphone,and it seems that it has some viruses how can I remove them from my iphone?

You have viruses because you jailbroke your phone, and now you're probably spreading them to other phones. Nice.
Jailbroken phones are generally bricked for good. Throw it away, it's junk.

How can I add the Blackberry my friend gave me to my account that already has my prepaid phone on it?

How can I add the Blackberry my friend gave me to my account that already has my prepaid phone on it?

A few questions to clarify your specific situation will help us to better help you...
Do you want to swap phones and use the BlackBerry instead of your current phone? I don't think you can add a line to a pre-paid account to use both - it would have to be two separate accounts.
What model BB is it? And is it Verizon branded? It may or may not be usable on a pre-paid account.
Finally, what is your current phone and account set up? You may need to get a different pre-paid plan to use the BB, if it is usable on Verizon.

how can I get a print out of a conversation that was done through text on 08/23/2014?

On what kind of phone model? Some phones depending on the OS have SMS Backup applications available.
You need a court order to get transcripts for the last 6 days or so of text messages directly from Verizon Wireless.

Go to File>new>blank file
Open your image
Go to Select>all
Go to Edit>copy
Go back to the blank file

How to Set icon/image programatically in ADF before page loads

This is my UI:
Depends on the condition i want to set icon/image programatically in my java code.Before page load im calling this method.
So i couldnt take binding value also,it throws null pointer exception.Then i tried setting icon/image programatically.
<af:commandImageLink text="settings" icon="#{bean.iconsettings}" binding="#{bean.bind}"> </af:commandImageLink>
My bean:
private RichIcon iconsettings;(its getters and setters)
private void method(){                         // method
if(cond){
this.iconsettings="/images/20.jpg";   //trying to set icon in a string.but it throws me error that cannot set RichIcon to string.
else
this.iconsettings="/images/19.jpg";
Could any one tell me how can i set icon/image in java code.Before page loads im performing all above said tasks.Please help.

Well, you set the icon property to a bean method, which you have done. The bean method however need to have the signature
public String getIconsetting()
// your code returning hte path to the icon
if(cond){
     return ="/images/20.jpg";   //trying to set icon in a string.but it throws me error that cannot set RichIcon to string.
else {
     return ="/images/19.jpg";
The bindproperty is not needed, remove it and remove the RichIcon Iconsettings too´as it's not needed to and is the wrong type anyway.

How do I prevent image selection in a pdf file?

I am trying to avoid selection of an image in a PDF file. In my file, it is possible to click and select an image, which gets highlighted in a blue colour. I would like to avoid that, creating a file that seems like this: http://www.dcc.ttu.ee/lap/lap5760/jy992d48301-j_fx.pdf
Note that I am not referring to the encryption or security option, but to an alternative where one can not even select the image by clickling. I am well aware that this will not prevent from copying the image (there is always print-screen, anyway), but I just want to avoid the possibility of selecting the image in any case for an academic article.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!

The file you linked to is secured... So if you want your file to behave the same, apply security to it as well.
Another option is to export your file to an image format, and then re-generate a new PDF file from those images. That would "flatten" it in a way that would make the original images not selectable, but I think that's a long way to go just for that small difference.
