    Or send the file from your computer to your ipod by emailing yourself the pdf. Then if you open the Mail client and you open the pdf there is an option to select open in ibooks. It will save it to your device for remote viewing.

  • Cannot import PDF files into iPhoto 4.0.3

    Is it possible to import PDF files into iPhoto 4.0.3? I can't drag and drop them into iphoto folders without the "Unreadable Files" error. I have tried importing them through the iPhoto menu and still get the same results. I have tried importing the PDF files from several places such as my desktop because I wondered if the location of the original made a difference, but that doesn't seem to help. I didn't find anything when I searched for this problem here in the forum so I wondered if anyone else is having the same problems.
    Any help would be appreciated.
    Thanks,
    Morgan

    No because I had iPhoto 4 open and tried to run the Save PDF to iPhoto on a book in that library. I think it's just the different data structure, etc.. It's just not compatible with Automator or at least that particular workflow. I tried printing to PDF from V4 and then do the Save to iPhoto from Preview with V4 open and I still get the error message. So iPhoto 4 is just not compatible with that workflow.
    A workaround is to create a PDF file of the whole book and then manually save each page as a jpg file and import those. That's what I did for my first book. You could do a screen shot of each page in the preview mode and use those but the resolution will be limited to screen resolution, 72dip. You will get resolutions on the order of 150-200 dpi thru the Save As route in Preview or the Save to iPhoto automator method.
    I'm sure you could create an Automator workflow that would take the PDF file and save each page as a jpg file and name it sequentially. I'll have to take a closer look at Automator soon.

  • Importing PDF files into iPhoto

    I seem to remember being able to import pdf files into iPhoto; now I am unable to.
    When I click on the pdf option in Print, "Save PDF to iPhoto" is one of the options given. If I click it, and try to save pdfs to iPhoto, I get a dialog box asking me to choose which album to import to. Whichever one I choose, I get an Applescript error, "file/private/temp/etc.etc.jpg was not found (-43)" .
    If I create a pdf and drag it to iPhoto, I get an "Unreadable files" dialog box telling me "The following file could to be imported. (The file is in an unrecognized format.)"
    And if I try to import via File––>Import, the pdfs are all greyed out.
    Any suggestions?
    Would upgrading the OS to 10.4.5 or the iPhoto to 6.1 help? I'm temporarily abroad, and don't want to screw up the laptop if I can avoid it.

    luba:
    That's been a bug with the Automator workflow ever since it's been introduced. Be sure to post that fact at the iPhoto feedback page: http://www.apple.com/feedback/iphoto.html.
    I wanted to create a slideshow of a book that I created but had to open each page of the book and do a Save As, picking the jpg format, to be able to do what I wanted.

  • Importing PDF file into CS6

    Hello,
    I am using the trial version of CS6 to see if this software would work best for what our company would like to accomplish. I currently have a pdf file that contains a parts book I would like to convert into a digital publication but I can not seem to figure out how to do so. I am using this book as our test to see the ease of use and overall quality of the software. Any suggestions on how to import my file into CS6?
    Thank you in advance.

    The end result is we are looking for a software that we can use to create digital copies of everything from Employee handbooks to Sales Binders.
    That is a fine idea.
    Does that help? I need a software where we can not only design new pages but also import in pages that already exsist.
    If the pages that already exist are only available to you in PDF format, then you have a rough slog ahead of you. I'd go so far as to call your project Nigh Impossible.  However, if you can get your hands on the source files from which those PDFs were generated, then it becomes Kinda Possible. So, like Mike, I'd want to ask first whether or not those source files were available to you, and what format they were made in.
    I'd also like to repeat Bob's point that you cannot become enough of an expert in InDesign to know whether or not it would be a suitable product for your project in thirty days - unless you were already experienced in something like Quark or Ventura.
    Lastly: what the heck do you mean by "digital publication"?  Do you just mean "a file"? I guess so, since you are comparing against printed binders. But it's hard to tell.

  • I use iTunes 11.1.3 and books is not listed in preferences.  I want to add a pdf file into ibooks.

    Hello:   I use iTunes 11.1.3 and under preferences,  books is not listed as an option.  I am trying to
    add a pdf file to ibooks.

    Sorry, I was only able to get back to this issue today, but it worked.
    Thank you again Michael for your help. It was as simple as just buyng a free book from the iTunes store to create a Books area, then I was able to drag and drop my 3rd party book there.
    Still, I feel that there should already be a Books area in iTunes, but perhaps I am the only one who has updated iTunes on a computer without any previously purchased books on it from the iTunes store.

  • Why can't I open new PDF files into iBooks

    I cannot open new PDF files in iBooks, they flash really quick in PDF folder then disappear. I'm really frustrated

    I am running Safari Version 5.1.5 (6534.55.3) on my iMac 10,1.  After my last Adobe update, my pdf files are nothing but a black window.  Have tried reverting to an earlier version of Adobe, but still getting a black window.  What next steps should I take?  Thanks.

  • When I drag pdf files into iBooks Author, the background in the pdf file changes into the colour of my book (brown/beige)?

    Hi,
    when I drag a pdf file (when working in Preview) into iBooks Author, the background colour in the pdf file changes into the background colour of the book.
    This happens not consistently, sometimes the background of the pdf file does not change (and stays white), sometimes it's like the text in the pdf file is 'lifted' of the file, and put on the page in iBooks Author (with a brown/beige background).
    All the pdf files are scanned pdf's, nothing comes out of Pages, Word, Excel,...
    Anybody?
    Thanks a lot!
    Wouter

    I have the same question (posted here: https://discussions.apple.com/message/25644741#25644741).
    I believe this is because the PDFs have transparent backgrounds. As far as I can tell, the only way to fix it is to export the PDF as another file, such as an image file. Or perhaps convert it to Word and import it that way.

  • Importing pdf files into fcp?

    i'm starting a music project that will have on-screen music notation (staffs & notes). this music notation currently exists as pdf files which the client wants to provide. i'm thinking that pdf's are not the right way to go. which graphic format should they convert these pdf's to that would provide the highest quality remembering that music staffs & notes have very thin lines that are prone to "buzzing." any other tips appreciated. thanks.

    You can import pdf into Final Cut Pro, although TIFF and PNG are preferred.
    Bear in mind that however large you make the images, they will be rendered to the video codec and pixel dimensions that you set up in FCP. Going to DVD will add further compression.
    Might it be an option to make your images as a long horizontal strip which moves from right to left across the screen? That way you can make the notes much larger and get around the buzzing lines problem.

  • Can't import .pdf file into iphoto

    I think the problem is that I had taped pics onto 8.5x11 paper and at copy shop they scanned into a .pdf file which has 8 pages of pics. What I want to do is find a way to drag pics off of a page into iphoto to email to family.
    Maybe this is impossible? I don't have a scanner, is why I went to copy shop.
    I can view the pages in PREVIEW and in ADOBE reader, and try to highlight pic and copy into iphoto, but it only shows a part of top of image.
    I also tried in Adobe Reader the menus: Tools/Select and zoom/snapshot and it shows "copied to clipboard" but when try to go into iphoto to paste, the PASTE word is greyed out; same if try to paste to desktop. Any ideas how to get photo's off .pdf file? TKS ahead for help!

    In preview go to print and click PDF and select send PDF to iPhoto . In iPhoto duplicate the resulting image and crop to a photo and repeat as needed

  • How do I import .pdf files to iBooks with Maverick

    I am having trouble importing .pdf books to iTunes/iBooks since I went over to Mavericks. With Mountain Lion I would simply drag and drop or use the "add to library" pull down. Now nothing will move over. This includes the ipod Nano7 users guide and others...
    Help?

    There might be some way using the Camera Connection Kit, but that is an expensive way to go about things. Even if it does work now, it might not work come iOS7.
