Is it possible to recover an original pdf document from a modified version??

I received a court document in pdf thats internal content was modified, is it in anyway possible to recover the original from the modified version?

It is possible they did a quick save to preserve the file identity, the metadata shows the program used was to modify the document was 'tx11 pdf version 11.0.111.501. Are either of you familiar with such a program?
I am on xp, when I right click properties there is a separate pdf tab. Indicating: The file was created jan 2012 and modified August 2013. The pdf producer is tx11 pdf 11.0.111.501.
I had a friend of a friend look at it and he said "the content was modified, not the file container itself, August 1st 2013, 5:13 a.m. according to its meta data the modification was made by tx11 pdf version 11.0.111.501". He gave me a printout of the metadata but I dont know the program used.
Whats interesting is the modification date is the same in pdf properties tab but the modification time is 9 am a 4 hour difference. 5 am is before office hours 9 am is shortly after arriving. The august date was a week after a court order.
So it is possible the file was taken home modified then replaced on the office computer. I am suspecting by a paralegal.

How to import and make the content of the original PDF document editable and preserves the pdf appearance and retains existing fields and formatting in LiveCycle

Can someone tell me how I can see my content (artwork and text) after I import it into LiveCycle Designer ES4? I like to import and make the content of the original PDF document editable; preserves the pdf appearance and retains existing fields and formatting, then allow me to do the modifications and save it back into the original PDF document with changes. I have tried everything but still cannot see my content(artwork and Text) of my original PDF after importing it into LiveCycle. All I see are is a blank page with the formatting and layout of where my artwork and text should be. I like to see everything if possible so after I make my change I will know how it will look when I save it back into the PDF and open it in Acrobat Reader.

Is it possible to display a native pdf document in AIR?

I'm not that familiar with AIR but i was wondering if it's possible to display a native pdf document in AIR. If so are any add-on's required or does AIR have that capability built in. Essentially I would be trying to create a pdf viewer in that allows users to markup documents and save them to the server for others to view. I'm just in the discovery phase of this project, so any guidance would be great.
Thanks!

You might want to go through http://livedocs.adobe.com/flex/3/langref/flash/html/HTMLLoader.html
Create a file url for the pdf you would like to load & open it up in HTMLLoader component.

Is Acrobat Pro right for us. We have an Employee Handbook that needs editing. Some is current pdf, some from an older version. Want to get all into one handbook, have the table of contents automatically adjust and link to specific pages from the ToC.

You can download the trial version (http://helpx.adobe.com/acrobat/kb/acrobat-downloads.html) to convert the PDF back to WORD if you do not have the original. The conversion may not be perfect, but it is typically better than starting from scratch. You may be lucky and get a good result. You might check the settings (in the save screen) to try retain format versus retain text flow. The format version can be a pain to edit since it creates a bunch of text boxes. The flow version may require you to reformat in WORD, but you likely would want to do that anyway.

How can I read pdf documents from SD card

Is it (or will it be) possible to read pdf documents from SD card in Windows Phone 8?
Thanks

Yes, it is possible. You can create even a folder on SD card and put in it the pdf's. It is working on my lumia 620 with Adobe reader 10.3 version.. You insert the SD in the phone, connect the phone to the computer and you will see the phone and the SD under it.
More....
You drag your pdf's on the SD card. when you open the Adobe reader on the phone you go to the documents and here they are (with a small card icon near the document which shows you that the file is on the SD card.

When I open a pdf document from my dropbox to view it, the document shows up blank, even though it is filled out. This also happened with pdf documents that have been e-mailed to me.

When I open a pdf document from my dropbox to view it, the document appears blank, even though I know the information is actually there. This also has happened with pdf documents that have been e-mailed to me, then opened to view and they are blank?? Why are they showing up blank?

When I open emails with PDFs I click on the attachment (doing this all on my iPad) it gives me the option to "open in iBooks", I accept then after that the document is sucked into my iPad but I can't do anything with the PDF after that. Where is the actual file on my iPad? Why can't I email or send these PDFs to my cloud (Dropbox)?
It's like once they go into iBooks they're stuck forever.

Is there a way of protecting PDF documents from printing and/or copying?

Does anybody know a way of protecting PDF documents from printing and/or copying? All this within the OS possibilities? Is there a way?
know one can buy expensive programmes like from Adobe, but I use it so little that I would like a cheaper solution. Freeware would be great, shareware also.
Any suggestion grateful received.

No way to do that using the OS (although the entire pdf can be encrypted, once the password is applied the document is open for copying/printing).
However, the freeware PDFLab does allow password protection, the 'owner' pw allows full access, the 'user' pw can be restricted for printing, copying, etc:

This can also be done with Adobe's Create PDF Online, but the above is free, and works well.
Hope this helps...

How can you create a writable PDF document from a PPT presentation ?

Thanks.

You can make a PDF file out of you notes and handouts but using the Adobe PDF printer.
Open your PowerPoint Document then go to “File” “Print”
Select ‘Adobe PDF” Printer
Under slides, select which way you want to print. Note it will not print to a printer but to a PDF file.
After then go into printer Properties and Setup PDF properties, do the following: (see second image below)
Default: PDF/A 1-b
Adobe Security: none (change as needed)
Adobe Output folder: Prompt for Adobe file name
Adobe Page size: Letter (change as needed)
Check the following check boxes
View Adobe PDf Results,
Add Document Information,
Rely on system fonts only,
Delete Log files for successful jobs.
Select OK
A pop will ask you where you want to save the document. The file extension should be PDF. After giving the file name select okay and the file should popup as a PDF. Down side is if you want to speaker notes included then you will have to do another file, like wise with just screen shots then combine into one PDF document.
I used Acrobat IX Pro. So to do this you need Acrobat IX or X Pro.
Hope this will help.

Hi.
Does this only open on that specific site?
In any case, you may want to:
- instruct Firefox to handle PDF files in a specific way by going into Tools > Options > Applications and selecting the option you want for the PDF files
- reinstall Adobe Reader and its Firefox plugin
- install another reader instead of Adobe Reader. I recommend Foxit Reader ( http://www.foxitsoftware.com/pdf/reader/ ), since it's free, VERY light, VERY fast, safe and also has a Firefox plugin (make sure you don't have both Adobe Reader plugin and Foxit Reader plugin enabled/installed at the same time in Firefox)

HT1296 how do I transfer a PDF document from my laptop to my Ipad?

Hello
how do I transfer a PDF document from my laptop to my Ipad?

To copy PDFs to the iPad you first need an app on the iPad that supports PDFs - the iPad doesn't have a file system like a 'normal' computer, everything has to be associated with an app. As to how you then get the PDF to your chosen app will depend upon what the app that you have/get supports - different apps will have different ways of copying their content to/from a computer e.g. via the file sharing section at the bottom of the device's apps tab when connected to iTunes, via wifi, email, dropbox etc.
For PDFs there are free apps such as Apple's iBooks app (syncing PDFs to iBooks) and also Adobe Reader - and paid-for apps such as GoodReader.

Display only 1 record using uploaded PDF document from 3rdparty Website

Hi,
Any help will be very much appreciated....
I'm trying to create my first BI publisher report using a PDF document from 3rd party website. I want to populate the name from EMP table to one of the fields in the PDF doc.
Here's the steps I've done:
1. Created and saved a data set using only the ENAME column of EMP table. 14 records are available from the table.
2. Run xml output and then save as sample data.
3. Downloaded the PDF doc from the 3rd party website (government form - US Custom Form 7512).
4. Using Adobe Acrobat X Version 10.1.4, I mapped the element name (ENAME) from my input XML file to the Name field.
<output type="data-structure" >
<dataStructure tagName="DATA_DS">
<group name="G_2" source="Employee" label="G_2" >
<element name="ENAME" value="ENAME" dataType="xsd:string" label="ENAME" breakOrder="None" fieldOrder="1"/>
</group>
</dataStructure>
</output>
5. Uploaded the revised PDF document to BI publisher.
6. Created and saved the report.
7. When I viewed the report in PDF, only 1 page is displayed. I'm expecting to see 14 pages because I have 14 records from the table EMP.
Any report properties that I need to change to allow me to view all the records from the EMP table?
Version of BI and Adobe
Oracle BI Publisher 11.1.1.5.0
Adobe Acrobat X Version 10.1.4

There could be an issue with the Loop. I guess your Template is looking at the first record only and not reading through all the records.
Try to get the BI Publisher Desktop tool. Using this tool you can merge PDF document and XML to see the output from your local PC/Laptop. It will be easy for you to debug.
