Is it possible to import a pdf figure into Keynote for iOS?

Hi,
I was eager to use Kynote on my new iPad Air to make some presentations. But I use a lot of vector graphics in pdf and eps format for my figures. I found out that it is not possible to import such file format into Keynote for iOS. I understand that .eps might be quite outdated already and will never be supported but pdf?!
It would be best if I could insert my figures directly from Dropbox but since this doesn't seem possible I would be happy to download my pdf figures to iBook for example and import them from there. This doesn't seem to be possible either. Keynote allows me only to browse my photos and it is not possible to put pdf files in Photos.
Overall - big disappointment from Keynote for iOS to me. It is unusable for my needs and preferences.

You can import pdf's in keynote!
Make a pdf with Indesign or something like that. Make sure your pdf has the same resolution as your Ipad: For example, Ipad Air: 2048 x 1536 pixels. (In Indesign, you'll have to create a doc with intent Web (instead of print).
Then, use a file manager app, like File Manager Pro (https://itunes.apple.com/NL/app/id558270538?mt=8&affId=2083450) to copy the pdf's to your Ipad by using WIFI.
In the app File Manager Pro, just select your pdf and copy it.
Now start Keynote, create a new presentation and create a blank sheet.
Now you can paste, and your pdf will appear, transparant and exactly the same size as your presentation.

Is it possible to import a pdf instead of a jpg to put in the base "photo layer?"

Is it possible to import a pdf instead of a jpg to put in the base "photo layer?"
I start with a pdf document convert it to a jpg
     mark it up in ideas
     then finish up with a marked up jpg document
     then reconvert it back to a pdf
I can only use jpgs in ideas. Converting the pdf to a jpg and them re convert it back after marking it up but this seems like an awfully round about way of doing things especially as it should all be inhouse adobe products .
An alternative would be to use adobe reader to mark up the document, but this does not allow me enough control as compared with marking it up Ideas, particularly with layers and control of the tools.
What I am trying to do is mark up and scribble over my architectual CAD drawings which are exported as a pdf document.
Any one got any bright ideas?
thanks
Brian C.

Hi Brian,
Saving as PDF it is not currently possible.I created the following feature request on your behalf. Please add your vote and any comments you would like see included
http://forums.adobe.com/ideas/1973
I also considered recommending Adobe Debut, it is currently only available on Android and might only work if you presenting the markup data from the tablet itself. You can import a multi-page PDF and add markups to the various pages and present the document to someone from the tablet, not sure if that would be useful for you or not?
Another consideration:

I don't think you can prevent email body text from being copied and edited.
You'd probably need to created a protected Word or PDF document, and send it as an attachment.
This is still some sort of guessing because it's still not clear to me what exactly your scenario is.
Whatever text you send in an email, regardless of whether in the body or as an attachment, the recipient will always be able to use that and distribute it further, e.g. by making a screenshot. And images can be 'photoshoped' as well.
If you want the recipient to be able to detect whether a message or an attachment has been altered on transit, you'd need to sign it.

How to import a PDF form into FormsCentral

Hi,
Please help me in How to import a PDF form into FormsCentral.
Thanks,
Techvedic

Hi Techvedic,
Import of form in Formscentral depends on how it was created. If you used LiveCycle designer to create the original form then it cannot be imported. However, if the form is created in Acrobat then you can import it by clicking on Import PDF form under Create New form heading.
Note: In the imported form you may edit the position of the submit button, but other design edits to the imported form will need to be made in the tool used to create that form.
Hope that helps, let me know if you have any other question.
Regards,
~Pranav

Open the PDF in preview or you favorite PDF reader, then drag pages from the page view to a Numbers sheet

How can I import a pdf file into a spreadsheet so that it will open with a click?

You can link to a webpage or an email in Numbers-- that's it.
The best way I found to do this is to enable websharing on your machine (see this article if you are running 10.8: http://lowendmac.com/crews/12lc/web-sharing-mountain-lion.html)
You can then place your pdf files in the folder /Users/<your user name>/Sites/<somefolder>
Then link to this using the url "<your machine name>.local/~<your user name>/<somefolder>/<pdf Name>
My machines name is "Proton" (you can get this from the System Preferences > Sharing pane)
My user name is "wayne"
so I stored a pdf file (DM00027543.pdf) in the folder "/User/wayne/Sites/PDFTest"
and stored the URL "http://proton.local/~wayne/PDFTest/DM00027543.pdf" in the "URL" field of the Hyperlink inspector

Importing one Pdf document into another.

I am trying to import one Pdf-document into another using a Reference XObject. I am looking at thePDF- specification, and I thought I was doing things the right way, but its not working. The PDF-specification doesen't have an example of how to do this, only an explanation.
Below is the PDF-file I am testing with (if anyone can be bothered looking at it ). The file embeds another pdf-file, and is supposed to show a part of the embedded file at a certain position.
Again, if anyone can be bothered looking at my PDF and see if they can see what I am doing wrong here I would appreciate it.
(There is nothing wrong with the embedded file itself...)

PDF is a binary format. The most important piece in a PDF file is the cross
reference table. It contains byte offsets to the different objects in a
file. If you insert just one space (which in a true ASCII file will not
change much), you are making all byte offsets after the insertion point
invalid. They now all point to something different than the start of an
object.
Because there is no standard about how line endings are encoded in text
files, every time may add (or subtract) a byte - depending on what computer
system and what editor you use to convert your PDF to fake-ASCII, and then
again what I use to try to convert it back to PDF. If you are using a
Windows system and I'm using a Mac, the cross reference table gets
corrupted. And that's even before the web server does it's magic and
potentially adds data.
If you want somebody to look at your file.
Have you looked at the post I linked to? The settings in Acrobat are
important. You need to enable Reference XObjects, AND you have to declare
the directory where your target file is stored as trusted.
From what I can see in your PDF code, you are doing a whole bunch of cm
operations. You may want to consolidate all those into one operation. I
have not done a detailed analysis, but you could potentially shift your
data off the page. Keep it simple and see if that makes a difference.

How to transfer pdf's into Keynote?

Having recently bought an ipad with keynote I am trying to sort out how to convert Pdf files into Keynote. The pdf page size is formatted to the ipad screen size already. Is it possible or do I have to buy Keynote for my Imac and import them as individual images?

I am working on a similar issue. I can get the PDF into Keynote using Acrobat Pro (very expensive) I am usingit on a Mackbook Pro Retina. the issue I am having is that the PDF shrinks to fit the PDF to the slide and when it does that it changes the word placement. It stays in the same colum but part of the word is on top and the rest of it is below the top. I have to spend some more time on it. I don't think that you will be able to do what you want with the ipad? The Ipad and the Imac are two different programs with the full program on the Imac.

Importing MPEG 4 Movie into Keynote 2

After spending 5 days trying to import MPEG 4 video from a Canon Optura 500 videocam, I have learned:
Can't be done. Calling Apple help today, confirmed no possible solution to get the movies into Keynote. I tried everything and read all help information in Keynote and imovie.
What I did for a do or die presentation: Import clip from camera (no editing allowed, as your edits will be lost on transfer) into imovie, copy and paste from imovie to keynote 2, copy and paste from Keynote 2 to POWERPOINT!
click on movie on a powerpoint slide and click view, click custom animation, click on your clip and click extras, pick play on click, and you can now play your MPEG4 movie in a slide show.
An apple rep once told me, in an Apple store, that "Keynote was Powerpoint on steroids". See how bad steroids are for you.

sigh...while Keynote is an amazing product, the Apple store workers tend to over hype it, to the point of making it sound like it has EVERy feature of PPT, when it's really missing a ton of stuff still. Visually though, I have to agree, it makes PPT look like a toy.
That said, I'm trying to figure out what exactly your process was, and what did and didn't work. I looked up the specs on the 500, and it appears that while you can shoot in true DV format onto mini DV tape, it also shoots Mpeg4 onto the photo card. Is this what you shot in (as opposed to DV format onto tape)? If so, I'm trying to figure out how you even got it into iMovie as opposed to iPhoto, which is what you use to import movies from a media card. Also, I don't understand your comment on edits getting lost.
Next, your use of the term slide show is confusing, but I THINK what you'd like is to see the movie sitting there on a poster frame until you want it to play, and then click to make it play. You can do this to an extent, but you have to work around a few missing features in Keynote. Keynote STILL won't let you leave the poster frame showing on the slide and then have the movie play on a click...you'll actually see NOTHING until you trigger the movie as you have to add a build to the movie, and until it builds, you won't see the thing. The work around is to grab a frame of the movie and paste it onto the slide, then build the movie in right on top of it.
I hope that helps. If you can give more details on what you did and what you TRIED to do, and what you want to end up with, I can try to help you figure it out.
EDIT: ah, I see this in a review "Playback of media from the card and the tape is available in playback mode, as is recording to a VCR or a digital video (DV) device using a FireWire cable." which means you "should" be able to import into iMovie. The real draw back is you're working with mpeg4 and not DV...and Mpeg4 is REALLY compressed, not a good format to use if you plan to edit it as you'll have to decompress and recompress, losing quality (DV is also compressed, but not nearly as much).

Re user tip: How can I import a homemade DVD into iMovie for editing? - I've followed instructions so far so good, until I get to "You can then FILE/EXPORT USING QUICKTIME and choose Apple Intermediate Codec as your video codec. " How do I do that?

Re AppleMan 1958 excellent user tip: How can I import a homemade DVD into iMovie for editing? -
I've followed instructions with success until "You can then FILE/EXPORT USING QUICKTIME and choose Apple Intermediate Codec as your video codec. " How do I do that?
I installed MGEG Streamclip 193b8 and used their utility to install quicktimempeg2 and got a message stating it was successfully installed. (I'm on latest Maverick 10.9.2 on iMac) Then I dragged the VIDEO_TS file from my home DVD into the streamclip app. It asked which of 4 files to use, and I selected the first one. Streamclip played the video with the sound. so far so good. but now I cannot figure how to use quicktime player 10.3 to export this vob file out of streamclip.

Thank you for your quick reply and for clearing up my confusion. I'm exporting the first section now. I choose the smallest size, 3x4 but I'd prefer to go higher as this DVD was originally a VHS home movie. I'm wondering if after three conversions (VHS,->DVD->MPEG) the resolution will be so poor as to not support a larger size frame? If it can, what size should I select when I export?

Is it possible to digitally sign a document in reader for iOS?

We sign documents using adobe reader 9.3 & std/pro 9.2 0. Can we create a digital signature and sign documents?

Steve,
Thanks for your reply.
I did not think it was possible as yet. We have many engineers and Pilots
that wanted to use their iPads to sign documents. This would eliminate the
need to go back to their PC.
I don't expect this feature to be too far in the future.
