Imbed pdf into DW CS4

Mac 10.5.6, DW CS4, Acrobat Pro 9,
How does one imbed a pdf. Please understand that I am coming
from GoLive, and quite upset that the conversion is not going well,
and I hate DW's GUI. I would appreciate specifics if possible. I am
completely confused and rattled at this point. Thanks.
Can I ask a secondary question? Why does "put" not work.
Neither in Files (remote/local) or from the page after I save it,
and hit the icon in the Tool Bar, or use cnd+shift+U (or whatever
it is). I always have to drag from the Local Files to the Remote
Files window. Isn't there an automatic way to just refresh my
remote site with one button, and any changes are uploaded? GoLive
had this.

>I want the pdf within the page, not linked. Personal
choice, I guess. Am I
>going to get yelled at here?
Impossible. How a PDF will be opened depends on the client's
settings
and capabilities. You can't control that. Sometimes your PDF
will be
opened in the same browser window/tab, sometimes it will be
opened in an
external viewer like Foxit for example. It's out of your
control.
> Integrity has to do with ALL pages looking the same.
Yes, _web pages_, but not print documents. Totally different
medium.
>When click to a pdf link,
>it takes me out of the sites integrity. Its feel. It's
look, i.e, I loose my
>buttons for other links that are on ALL OTHER pages.
Sure. A PDF is not a web page. In fact it's not even suitable
for
anything related to the WWW, because it's a print format.
Completely
different thing compared to the flexible nature of the WWW.

Thank you.
Impossible.

Place pdf into InDesign CS4 js

Hi, I have those lines of script that place the pdf into InDesign, but in the process new frame gets created in which the pdf is placed, and I need it to be placed into my existing frame. How could I do it:
    var myRectangle = myDoc.pages[0].rectangles[0];
    myPage = myDoc.pages[0];
    myPDFPage = myPage.place(File(myFile), [0,0])[0];
Thank you very much for your help.

Yes, you are right, I am stuck for a different reason, it does places the second page.
What I think is going on, and maybe there is a better approach to it than the one I am going about it: when I have single page pdf for the 1st page and single page pdf for the 2nd page, my script first tries to upload 1st pdf as multi-page just in case there is only one pdf with both files. And for some reason it uploads single page pdf twice (into the second InDesign page as well when there is no second page in the 1st pdf [If I could avoid that all together would be great]). So my script verifies if the pdf uploaded into the 2nd page is 1st page of 1st pdf then it deletes it. And then it looks if there is a file for the second page, and uploads it. So my new challenge is that when it verifies what page of the pdf is uploaded into the 2nd page of InDesign after the 1st pdf upload, it just crashes, and it worked with the previous way of placing pdfs (the green line of the script).
The second my issue is that, as it places the files, it dis-attaches the frames from the master page, and I need them to be still half attached. For the same reason new frames created by place command - is a problem for me. Maybe easier way, if it's possible at all, half-attach those new frames to the Master page afterwords. (This is the main goal for me).
Here are both functions: to upload first pdf and second pdf:
function myPlacePDF(myDoc, myFile){
    app.pdfPlacePreferences.pdfCrop = PDFCrop.cropMedia;
    // page 1
    myPage = myDoc.pages[0];
    var myRectangle = myDoc.pages[0].rectangles[0];
    app.pdfPlacePreferences.pageNumber = 1;
    myRectangle.place(myFile);
    //PDF.place (myFile);
    //myPDFPage = myPage.place(File(myFile), [0,0])[0];
    myRectangle.geometricBounds = [0, 0, myGB_Y2, myGB_X2];
    // page 2
    myPage = myDoc.pages[1];
    var myRectangle = myDoc.pages[1].rectangles[0];
    app.pdfPlacePreferences.pageNumber = 2;
    myPDFPage = myRectangle.place(myFile);
    //PDF.place (myFile);
    //myPDFPage = myPage.place(File(myFile), [0,0])[0];
    myRectangle.geometricBounds = [0, 0, myGB_Y2, myGB_X2];
    if (myPDFPage.pdfAttributes.pageNumber != 2){
        myPDFPage.parent.remove();
    try{
        var myFrame = myDoc.pages[0].rectangles[1];
        if (myFrame.isValid == true){
            myFrame.remove();
    catch (e){}
    try{
        var myFrame = myDoc.pages[1].rectangles[1];
        if (myFrame.isValid == true){
            myFrame.remove();
    catch (e){}
    app.pdfPlacePreferences.pageNumber = 1;
function myPlacePDFback(myDoc, myFile){
    var myFrame= myDoc.pages[1].rectangles.[0];
    if (myFrame.isValid == false){
        myDoc.pages[1].rectangles.add();
        myFrame.strokeWeight = 0;
        myFrame.geometricBounds = [0, 0, myGB_Y2, myGB_X2];
    app.pdfPlacePreferences.pdfCrop = PDFCrop.cropMedia;
    myPage = myDoc.pages[1];
    var myRectangle = myDoc.pages[1].rectangles[0];
    app.pdfPlacePreferences.pageNumber = 2;
    myRectangle.place(myFile);
    //myPDFPage = myPage.place(File(myFile), [0,0])[0];
    app.pdfPlacePreferences.pageNumber = 1;
Kasyan, your script might be helpful, and I would like to look into it.
Thank you very much for your help.

How do I import a pdf into Dreamweaver CS4?

I converted a Golive site to CS4, when I added a new pdf to my newsletter page and linked to it, I get an error message that the file can't be found. Everything looks to be correct. If I link to an older newsletter that was in the Golive site, so was there when I converted the site, the link works.

GET and PUT are one of the fundamentals concepts for managing sites with Dreamweaver (or any ftp client)
> I've got 6 boxes on DW CS4 and
I don't know what you mean by 'boxes'
>At least not that I could find using my logic of "How to I upload"
If you search the web for 'uploading with Dreamweaver', virtually every result tells you how to do it.

Opening PDF in AI CS4 - cuases type kerning to be off.

I noticed that when I open some PDF files in AI CS4 some of the type kerning (Spaces between some letters) is not the same as the original PDF file.
I found another way of bringing PDF files into AI CS4 that holds the kerning.
Open a new AI file, place the PDF, go to the OBJECTS menu/FLATTEN TRANSPARENCY/ High Resolution (not necessary just my choice).
The file will now have editable text that does not have any kerning issues. The only draw back was all the clipping masks. I just selected them with the direct select tool (white arrow) and clicked the delete key twice.

> The only pdfs that should be opened, and edited, in Illustrator are pdfs saved from Illustrator itself...
and with Include Illustrator Editing Capability turned on when saved. These files are actually dual format, with the PDF and AI file data saved separately within the same file. You would be editing the AI portion of the file, not the PDF portion.

Import PSD into Illustrator CS4 Mac Yosemite

Does anybody know how to fix the problem of importing PSD files into Illustrator CS4?
I am using the new OS X Yosemite 10.10.
Illustrator wants to tell me that PSD would be an unknown file format.
Any suggestions?
Thanks
Peter

A work around is saving your psd files as pdf files instead. You can then open them in Illustrator.

Export interactive pdf with InDesign CS4 (linked avi)

Hello
I've exported an avi linked video to pdf from InDesign CS4. Video is playing but I have a few questions.
1. Any way to get around the security stuff in Acrobat? Allow blocked content blocked, etc. without user needing to allow.
2. Does the export degrade (lower) video quality if the video is linked? End user said video quality was poor.
Thanks.
Dave

Current Acrobat versions will have security issues. The only way I know is to go into Acrobat's preferences for Multimedia, Trust Manager and Security to allow from certain sources. I haven't done that, so you should probably ask advice on the Acrobat forum.
Linking video should have no effect on quality. It's all in how you've encoded the video.

Can't Place a specific Word 2010 docx into InDesign CS4

I'm trying to use the Place command to bring the text from a specific Word 2010 docx into InDesign CS4.
I've successfully brought in several Word 2010 documents (docx extention) to InDesign CS4 documents using the place command.
I have one specific 30 page document (which is no loarger than others which have been successful), and when I use the place command with this file, nothing happens (and no text gets loaded onto the cursor for placement.
I've tried re-saving the word doc, even pasted its contents into a new Word doc and still can't get the Place command to work.
THere's nothing particularly unique about the file - doesn't have any odd embedded content, just a 30 page text document writtin in word.
Any ideas what could be going wrong or how to fix it?
I've tried restarting both Word and InDesign without any change (and the rest of my word files can be Placed without problem, so I imagine it's something specific to that file.
NOTE - re-saving in RTF format lets the Place command work but leaves a bunch of empty squares/boxes (not sure if these were for tabs or empty spaces or what really??)
Can work around this for now, but would like to know how to get the place command working with decent size Word Docs( docx for word 2010 if that matters).
Thanks for any help.

It turned out that for at least one particular document the OP had used some blank paragraphs as spacers at the start of the text, and that the style assigned to the second paragraph used a combination of left and right paragraph indents that was more than the width of the document page, sending the entire document (except for the empty first paragraph) into overset. I can't say for sure, but I think the Word styles might have been mapped to ID styles because I found no trace of the indents in the Word file itself, only in the ID document, and I had no trouble placing that Word file in my own ID test document. I did have some trouble placing another .docx file supplied by the OP in CS4, but not in later versions, and conversion to .doc solved that problem.

How to edit a PDF in Photoshop CS4

Hi there,
I'm having some real trouble trying to figure out how to edit a PDF in photoshop cs4. So i need to edit/change text, move things around, that type of thing.
I work in Windows.
Could someone give me a bit a low down on how this is done?
Much appreciated,
Victoria

You can open them but you will totally rasterize everything.
PDFs are not intended to be edited. They are a final format but as
mentioned you can use Acrobat for some minor text edits or use it to
extract the images to Photoshop for further editing.

I am trying to drag and drop one page of a .pdf into another .pdf in Acrobat Reader. I used to be able to drag and drop from one .pdf to another.

I am trying to drag and drop one page of a .pdf into another .pdf in Acrobat Reader. I used to be able to drag and drop from one .pdf to another.

If you could drag and drop pages before, it wasn't in Reader. You no doubt had Adobe Acrobat (Pro or Standard) which shouldn't be confused with Adobe Acrobat Reader. They recently added Acrobat to the name of Adobe Reader so the confusion about which product you had and/or have is understandable.

Im trying to convert a PDF into an excel document and I keep getting an error message that reads "An error has occurred while trying to access the service". WHat am I doing wrong?

Im trying to convert a PDF into an excel document and I keep getting an error message that reads "An error has occurred while trying to access the service". WHat am I doing wrong?

it seems my subscription had expired so I signed up again.. It was still having trouble so I repeated the sign up process again.. Then it worked perfectly.. Unfortunately, I think I just subscribed twice and need to cancel one of them. Ugh. Such a pain when I'm trying to get this project completed. I'll be canceling at least one of the subscriptions in the morning. Adobe is not my favorite company right now. None of this was intuitive. And trying to get help was an absolute waste of an hour.

How can I scan directly into Ps CS4 on a Mac when Rosetta wont work?

I'm using a Mac Pro Quadcore with Snow Leopard version 10.6.8 and want to scan photos straight into Ps CS4 version 11.0.2 using a Canon Canoscan LIDE 100.
BUT when I go to Import there is no TWAIN option, there is only: Variable Data Sets (grayed out), Video Frames to Layers, Anti-Alised PICT, PICT Resources and Notes (grayed out).
I right click on Adobe Photoshop CS4 inside the Ps CS4 folder to bring up "Get Info" and click the check box that states "Open using Rosetta" BUT when I click open the Ps icon to open it Ps crashes straight away. I click "Reopen" and it crashes straight away. Un tick the Rosetta check box and Ps opens fine.
I assumed this was Apples problem because Rosettas is their program but after walking it through the Apple care operator and following his instructions to download a PowerPC version of VLC (which started up fine without doing a thing)to see if Rosetta was automatically installed, it worked fine, I was told that it's an Adobe problem. Urrrggghhh
Then I downloaded the TWAIN plugin and dropped it into the import-export folder and NOTHING!
The scanner works with Snow Leopards native Image Capture so it's not the scanner. Except that the scanner buttons dont seem to work when they used to on a MacBook. But here on the Mac Pro I cant find anything within the Ps menus that resembles "permission" to scan.
I need to do a lot of photo correction/remove blurred/restoration and read that it's better to scan the old photos straight into Ps to ensure no quality is lost during the scan. Regardless if this 100% true I still should be able to scan straight into Ps. I mean the CS4 package + Mac cost enough.
What is it that I'm doing wrong or missing here? Any help would be sooo appreciated!

Hi Mate - I'm using CS4 Extended Ps v11.0.2, according to the Adobe site photoshop instals a 32 bit version only. How can I find out exactly by checking out preferences etc? I'll have to go hunt out the box.
Thanks for the reply.

I`d like to know how can i insert documents, xls/doc/pdf into iCloud and have them in my iPhone and my iPad. I just found one way, through ibooks, but i think it isn't a practical option.

Just use Drop Box instead.

Combining Contents of 2 PDFs into a single page PDF

I need to combine elements of two different PDFs into one, single page PDF.
One PDF is Template of sorts with headers to be edited, the other PDF is a non-ocr scan that includes text and images.
I've found no way to copy and paste on a single page b.t two PDFs. I've tried pasting into an inserted page and then dragging it up or cutting and pasting within the document (with the intention of deleting the unneeded second page) with no luck.
This seems like it should be such a no brainer. Open 1st PDF, Open 2nd PDF, make selection Ctrl C, go to 1st PDF, place cursor where desired, Ctrl V.   But it doesn't work at all in an intuitive way like any other document program where you can cut and paste with ease b/t documents and even b/t programs.
So instead, I've copied the part of the image PDF I want into the original word doc of the template, then created a PDF from that. However, when I try to tell Acrobat to make the entire document OCR, it tells me it can’t b/c it contains renderable text (the header information, I’m assuming). If I run the OCR on a PDF containing just the image, it does it no problem.
What is the best way to bring these two documents together in way that results in a single page, completely searchable PDF?

Unfortunately, another $700 software purchase is not in the cards and I can’t wrap my mind around why it should be necessary. It seems so nonsensical to me that Acrobat has all these advanced functions for editing, combining, making portfolios etc., yet can not perform the simple task of cutting and pasting between two documents.
While Adobe support was putting me on hold, I doodled up some generic sample documents that I could upload here to illustrate the problem. Hopefully, someone can play with these and give me a workable solution.
The first PDF, Original Acme Clip, represents the file that is provided to me by our clipping service. They cut the item out of a magazine, put the customized info into their standard template in whatever word processing program they use, printed it out, pasted the magazine clip to that page and then scanned the hard copy to PDF-as an image only PDF, it is not optimized for optical character recognition and is not searchable.
The second PDF, Final Acme PDF, represents the file that our workflow eventually ends up as-a PDF containing only the info we want, formatted as we want, in which both the headers and clip content are searchable. To get there currently, we print out the Original ACME Clip, type the relevant info into the headers of a Word template that includes our logo and standard footer, print out the Word template page, manually cut out the scanned image from the PDF, and paste it onto the template paper. The resulting paper is scanned into the Final Acme PDF and OCR is run on the whole thing to make it all searchable.
What we’d like to do is skip all the printing, and manual cutting and pasting. Any and all suggestions for work in Acrobat 9 Pro to do this would be gratefully appreciated!

Trying to convert a multipage PDF into multilayered PSD. Automatically, not one by one - manually. Please help!

as per title - i have a multipage PDF that i want to transfer into a multilayered PSD.
not one by one - but automatically.
my attempts of recording a set of actions failed.
Please help.

This would likely need Scripting at least.
But like station_two indicated people might feel more inclined to help if the necessity for the process were clearer.
And converting pdfs into pixel images is often a bad choice.
