Import pdf into iweb
How do i go about importing a pdf file into iweb? Any help will
be greatly appreciated. thanks.
imac Mac OS X (10.4.8)
Mark,
Thanks for ur quick response. I did exactly as the article from James Tseng
described. I linked it exactly as he describes but only the 1st page of the
pdf file is displayed. Its actually a large pdf file with 96 pages. Could it be
the size of this pdf (96 pages) that is keeping from downloading all of the
pages??? Something's not right.

I have two Macs and I made a website in iWeb on one of them, so how do I import it into iWeb on my other Mac?

Is it possible to import PDf documents into the current version of Adobe Indesign ? I am currently testing the software and was wondering if it would be possible to import around 50 of my already published PDF docs to work on it and redesign it with Indesign ?
Thank you in advance.Hi @plummerdesign and @MasterStudios - indeed, it is a crying shame our website does not work in IE and they are looking into this. Thank you. We do not have a demo for several reasons and can understand your point. We do have numerous forms of detailed video demsontrations on PDF to InDesign via PDF2DTP here and we have some awesome testiominals from graphic arts industry experts, Frank Romano, Michael Jahn, Joe Marin and more (click on the hyper links on their names to view what they say about PDF2DTP).
One of many customer quotes we have include this:
"Really pleased to have this product [PDF2DTP for InDesign]. The Beta version was really good and saved me loads of hassle with amends to pdfs."
Graham Bell - http://www.absolutegraphics.co.uk
Another quote is:
“We have a lot of PDFs from „Word“ ;-) Before PDF2DTP, we used PitStop for the corrections, now we can do it better! As a recent example, we had come in an advert in PDF for a meeting. The ad was in RGB, Fonts not included, the trim and bleed were not correct, etc. I open it with the PDF2DTP plugin and it works very nice. A little bit of touching-up work on the pictures and the colours, but not much… Thanks for the app!”

Hopefully this helps you see how useful and yet still affordable PDF2DTP for InDesign is. It is truly a gem, especially when all you have left is the said PDF! Thank you for the feedback and we will strive to better that side of it, for sure. -
We are in the process of refiling our contracts for a new look-and-feel. The vendor is supplying us with PDFs, but they import into Documaker as embedded graphics. The problem is: we have a lot of text on them that we want to make dynamic (depending on state-specifics, etc).
Does anyone have any ideas about how to cleanly import PDFs? Or maybe someone has a conversion utility that works well (we have had great success in importing Word docs into Studio).
Thanks in advance.
DaveHello,
There are three options for doing the same. I am just giving from our earlier experience.
1. If you are going to use Documaker Studio 12.0, you will have an option to import PDF directly as you could do an RTF or Doc.
2. If you are using an earlier version,
a) You may convert the PDF to a Word Doc or RTF using one of the available utilities and import the RTF or Doc. Only from 11.5, you have an option to directly import Word document. Prior versions support only RTF import.
b) There is an utility called "Quark" which aids in converting PDF to Sections or FAPs. However, it did not give us a 100% clean conversion; we did lot of clean up with respect to alignment, font etc after the import in order to make it appear as per our expectation.
Thank you. -
Import PDF into Framemaker 7?
Greetings
Using FrameMaker 7 in Windows XP.
I have some 11 × 17 drawings (created in AutoCad) that I receive in PDF format. They are high quality line-drawings. When I zoom in they are of high quality, the print menu shows them as 200dpi and the print quality is very good.
I need to import them into Framemaker but when I do, they come in at what is clearly NOT high quality. The notes can't be read and the like. I've tried opening them in Photoshop (low quality), I've tried doing Save As.. and choosing JPG (low quality). I even tried saving as RTF.. same thing.
Ultimately, what I want is to bring the high quality pdf image into Framemaker, but it's not retaining the quality.
I've seen some suggestions in the forum, but none that seem to address this situation.
Any ideas?
Thanks,

The "200dpi" was something I observed at some point, possibly when I had copied/pasted into Photoshop, I'd have to look at it again. When these paste to Framemaker, or are saved as RTF, or I use the Acrobat tool for 'grabbing' images (Sorry,don't remember the name), they look AND print like 72dpi or something. I can't read the notes and callouts, so I can't use them.
Solon,
Arnis is definitely correct, there shouldn't be any "dpi" applicable with a CAD PDF. Should be vector, although "resolution independent" is often not completely true, since many CAD apps convert curves (bezier, spline) to polylines consisting of many straight segements.
I say Auto-Cad because in the lower-right corner, with other document information, it says "Auto-Cad - No Manual Changes" and I know we have people who use Auto-Cad.. perhaps it was "UG" ... apparently another drawing program.
I can zoom and zoom and zoom.. but I didn't zoom to the end of the earth. If they're vector, they'll never lose resolution, right?
If it's vector, should I be able to open them in Illustrator? (I recall being unable to, but I've tried so many things I may not have tried Illustrator)
AutoCAD and UG (= Unigraphics) are able to create vector output. Yes, you should be able to open such a file in Illustrator.
I don't scale them to fit pages, I get them as 11 × 17 (I turned on the rulers to confirm). Though if I print one and it prints on 8.5 × 11, it's a delightfully clear drawing. Better readability than if I put the image in Frame or save as RTF then print on 11 × 17.
I'm beginning to suspect that you're right in the 'bad PDF' idea.. I was surprised that I couldn't open one in Frame.
All the things you describe sound like a well-known problem: Are you trying to print on a non-PostScript printer? These are exactly the symptoms:
- Acrobat prints PDFs clearly, because Acrobat itself rasterizes images for output on non-PS printers.
- FrameMaker prints 72dpi preview images, because EPS (and converted PDF) images are only correctly interpreted by a PS printer driver
- Doing anything image related using RTF is a bad, bad idea in any case. Regarding vector graphic it's a bad, bad, bad idea
I'll be back at work tomorrow morning, I'll check a couple of things out. One person has suggested I get a copy of a program that'll translate the DWG file (I have access, if I need it) to other formats.
So, my question now is if it IS Vector, will I be able to zoom the PDF in acrobat and basicaly never lose resolution? (I always thought that once you PDF it you lose the zoom capability).
If a PDF is vector, zoom capability is preserved. Illustrator opens PDF and DWG, which gives you control over line weights and colors. Better than doing it in Acrobat. Anyway, a placed vector PDF in FrameMaker 7.x should work, but is only printed correctly when using a PS printer or the Adobe PDF printer. Same with EPS. One bug with PDFs in FM7: Black/greyscale PDFs appears on *all* four color separations.

Problems Importing pdfs into iBook and sync to iPad air 2
Is there a solution to what appears to be a widespread problem within the community? That of not being able to import books in pdf form into iBooks and subsequently syncing with an iPad Air 2 running iOS 8.1. This seems to be specific to pdfs not 'purchased' from iTunes. In the past I have had all my software manuals available on my iPad, synced with my iMac, all working happily and would dearly love to return this situation.
I then upgraded to iOS 8. Big mistake. iTunes on the iMac (OS 10.6.8) does not sync pdfs to new iPad.
Try syncing from MacBookPro (OS 10.10) still no luck.
There are suggestions to use iTunes, but there is no longer an option to view 'Books' in iTunes.
Can anybody offer a work around until such times as the collective 'apple digit' is removed and a not so 'minor bug' is fixed?
Are Apple working on this problem or even aware of it?Have you tried the shortcut to add books/pdfs Command Shift O?
Command Shift O is not available in iBooks (Greyed Out)
Command Shift in Finder shortcuts to Documents
Maybe I didn't explain myself very well earlier. When I am working in iBooks, having control clicked multiple files and selected 'Open With iBooks' to get the pdfs into iBooks, (as per your suggestion) a click on a pdf icon initiates nothing, a double click causes the pdf to open in Preview. This I can achieve from the Finder.
The reason I haven't tried to sync from the MBP is that I rely on iPad iBooks as a reference source. At the moment it is working but not the way I want it to (Sync via iMac 10.8.6). When Ibooks on the MBP is finally OK, then I will try.
Thanks for hanging in there. -
As I posted, my iweb project is missing - it is no longer listed in the index when I open the program.
I have the site saved in a desktop folder - how do I import the folder into iweb so i can load the porject again?
Thanks,
Diana.Occasionally iWeb will open and you won't be able to see anything in it, not the websites you've built nor any of the menu items. If you're experiencing that try the following:
1 - open iPhoto.
2 - select a couple of photos.
3 - use the Share ➙ iWeb ➙ Photo Page menu.
It might take a couple of tries.

Importing eBlogger into iWeb Blog...
Good Afternoon,
Is it possible to import previous blogs from eBlogger into a blog made with iWeb? Would like to keep what I've done previously, but, from what I can tell, this may not be a viable option.
Would love your input on this...can it be done? Is it worth it?
Thanks...
TMCinDCNo, you can't incorporate anything into iWeb as it has no import facility.
The best you can do is display your eblogger blog in iWeb using iframe code - place the code into an html snippet and people can scroll the site within your iWeb site.
Other than that, there is nothing that can be incorporated into iWeb. -
Ungrouping an imported pdf into Illustrator
Is there a way to ungroup the elements of an imported pdf in Illustrator 6? Do you have to change the settings in Adobe Acrobat first to allow the elements to import individually rather than a group? Thank you.
Angie,
You should be able to Ctrl/Cmd+Shift+G to Ungroup once it is in Illy. If there is a Clipping Mask or something blocking the way, you may release that. You can see it in the Layers palette.

Hi,
Easy question I assume, but for some reason am stuck.
Have been creating linework in CAD and printing to PDFs. Set up a new document in photoshop, A1, 300ppi, RGB colour 8 bit. When I go to 'Place' the PDFs into the blank document, all the linework is extremely feint. I assume this has something to do with the settings?
Many thanks in advanceIf the lines are too thin for further processing then you can apply in Acrobat Pro
Advanced > Print production > Fix hairlines
Here for Acrobat Pro 8, maybe in a different location in newer versions.
Vector files can be modified by Illustrator but Fix hairlines is really simple.

Brand New InDesign User (latest version on OS X)
We have layout modifications to do on some marketing material that is being sent to us in PDF form. I know InDesign can import the PDFs but it seems that the type and image layers are not available. It's very tedious to go into Acrobat (we have Acrobat Standard on Windows) and save out all the images, cut and paste the text, check the fonts, re-lay out in InDesign.
Surely such a sophisticated layout program made by Adobe should be able to access the type layers in a PDF directly?
ColinBob,
Thanks for the quick reply. I may have spoken loosely about 'layers'. The PDF documents have text, embedded fonts and images at least. The original documents are not available (lost) and the PDFs were probably created from InDesign or some similar layout program.
Thanks for the plugin link, it looks good but another $249 on top of the ID full price we just paid...
The placed PDF looks like a graphic in ID and yet it has all this good information in it, text, fonts, images. Hard to believe it wouldn't be available.

OK... so this may sound like a very simple question, but I
really don't understand how to import a PDF file into a Robohelp
X5(winhelp 4) project? - I'm pretty sure that we are using the
"classic" version of Robohelp, not the HTML version. Up until now,
we have been manually copying the info from the PDF files (product
catalogs) into word docs to enter... but it is taking wayyyyy to
much time (there's got be an easier way!)
THANKS! ~ paulIs that really the end, doc ?

Importing pdf into RoboHelp HTML 8.
I get an "unsupported or corrupted file" error when trying to import a pdf as a topic into RoboHelp HTML 8. The file opens fine in Acrobat.
I've done that also. However, one of my help projects consists solely of pdfs from other sources. I've found that the print method works best for me.
Thanks for the tip, however. It's good to know that someone looks at the responses.

What about importing the pdf in your baggage files? The trick here is getting the project manager to display the Baggage Fle folder. Toggle the icons at the top of the Project Manager window until they display. See this thread below for the import instructions.

Can I dynamically import pdf into swf?
Hi All,
I need to be able to dynamically import an external pdf file into my flash .swf and display it within a movie clip on the timeline. --with pagination. Is this possible with Flash CS4?
Thank you for reading. I have been out of the flash game for about a year now. However, a situation has arisen where I need to create a swf movie that loads an external pdf, paginates it, and displays it within a movie clip in the swf. Is this possible or will I be forced to only provide a hyperlink to the pdf?
Thank you so much for your time.
PeteYou should be able to use getURL("pdflocationhere.pdf"); - but I believe thats totally dependent on how the users computer is set up. If they don't have Adobe Reader, it will probably fail, or will attempt to load the pdf within a modern browser that should have the reader plug-in. From my experience, when using getURL() within a projector, it will attempt to open the filetype based on that specific filetype's default opening program which is set in the OS.

Importing PDF into flash CS3 - Importer du PDF dans CS3
Hello.
Originally, i posted my question in french. So i will try to
convert in english, but my english is poor.
You can see the original in french, in back of this topic, in
bolded text
So, my problem : i can import some PDF files with Flash MX
2004, but i cannot do the same with Flash CS3.
When i import (import in the scene - Command+R) the PDF file
in Flash MX 2004, i got the vectorial logo correctly and the text
as a text.
But when i import (import in the scene - Command+R) the same
PDF file into Flash CS3, there is a problem. At start, i cannot
click the PDF file, i have to choose "all the files" to can click
it. Then i click it and there is a pop window appearing, talking
about "importing video". But my PDF is not Video… And at the
end, the result is a poor jpg image of my PDF, not the vectorials
that i would like.
So why the old Flash MX can do it easily, and the recent CS3
can not ?
What i have to do ?
Bonjour,
Jusqu'à peu, j'utilisais Flash MX 2004 et quand je
faisais une importation dans la scène, je pouvais importer des
fichiers PDF, et j'obtenais en quelques dixiemes de secondes,
l'importation du contenu (en général quelques logos en
vectoriel et du texte). Léger, simple, rapide, efficace !
Et puis j'ai installé la version CS3 Professionnal, et
là c'est la débacle.
Quand je fais importation dans la scène, et
sélectionne une PDF (déjà il m'a fallu aller sur
"tous les fichiers" pour le dégriser) il me sort une usine
à gaz dont voici quelques détails.
- Il commence par m'ouvrir une fenêtre "importer de la
vidéo" me demandant de sélectionner si ladite vidéo
est sur mon DD ou déjà "déployée" sur le web.
(Mon fichier PDF n'a rien de vidéo, c'est une image fixe, nom
de xxx).
-Si je continue, il me demande "comment je veux la
déployer ?". 5je ne veux rien déployer, je veux juste
importer 2 ou 3 vecteurs et du texte !)
- je lui dis de "l'incorporer dans le swf". Il me demande
comment je veux incorporer la vidéo. (C'EST PAS DE LA
VIDÉO, t'es sourd sale bête !!!)
- je lui explique que le "type de symbole" est graphique
(j'ai le même résultat si je mets clip) et il me demande
le codage.
- si je décoche "coder la vidéo" il refuse de
continuer, et si je le coche, il m'importe une espèce de jpeg
atroce, pixelisé à mort et inexploitable (tout du moins
pour l'usage que je compte faire).
Donc ma question est "est-ce que j'ai raté un
épisode ?" (oui, plusieurs, certes, mais de là à
changer complètement l'histoire, faut pas abuser) et la
suivante c'est surtout "comment faire pour importer convenablement
mes fichiers PDF qui ne comporte que quelques logos en vectoriel et
du texte, et le tout fixe fixe fixe, rien à voir avec de la
vidéo ?"
En attendant, je ré-installe Flash MX pour avancer un
peu, mais je ne peux pas croire qu'une fonction primordiale soit
supprimée, comme ça, sans remplacement.
Os court !Is that really the end, doc ?
