Loosing bookmarks when OCR converting a pdf document. Acrobat X Pro

Hello,
I have an 800 plus pdf documents with bookmars. This makes navigation very easy. However I am unable to do text seraches on it and get the message 'this page contains renderable text'
I used instructions from this adobe forum link http://forums.adobe.com/message/4933687 from Kevin N Weinhold (at the bottom of the page). While this made the new pdf file searachable, I have lost all the bookmarks in it.
Please advice. 
Thanks a lot!
JSingh

Replace the pages of the old document (with bookmarks) with the pages of the new document.

  • When I print to PDF using Acrobat 11 Pro from any application the acrobat Reader does not launch automatically. Associations are correct. Thx for your help,  Bruce

    When I print to PDF using Acrobat 11 Pro from any application the acrobat Reader does not launch automatically. Associations are correct. Happens from Chrome, IE, Word, Excel, Powerpoint. Previously had deskPDF installed but uninstalled correctly. Can't find a preference setting for the auto launch. Thx for your help,  Bruce

    A simple way is to flatten the form fields, which converts the field appearances to regular page contents. You can do this with JavaScript or PDF Optimizer (Advanced > PDF Optimizer > Discard Objects > Flatten form fields). A very nice script that adds a custom menu item can be found here: http://www.uvsar.com/projects/acrobat/flattener/

  • Error Message when Combining Files to PDF in Acrobat XI-Pro

    Hi!
    I am trying to combine multiple CAD files to PDF and keep encountering an error message.
    I'm using the Combine Files to PDF, dragging in the corresponding files (.DWG files) into Acrobat and then clicking the Combine button. They convert to PDF but a dialog box immediately pops up:
    As I'm the person creating the .pdf document and am using Acrobat XI-Pro to do so, what am I doing wrong to continue to receive this message?
    Thanks for the help!

    Hi TTownWriter,
    Try creating a combined file as follows :
    - Open one of the files .
    - Open thumbnail pane of the file via Left hand tools pane .
    - Go to options and Insert the second(or subsequent) files to the opened file using "Insert Pages" menu option.
    - Save the file.
    Refer the screenshot.

  • AppleScript to batch change 'Initial View' of PDF Documents Acrobat 9 Pro

    Hi
    I'm struggling to write a script that takes a bunch of PDF documents and opens
    those in Acrobat 9 Pro. Changes the Inital View settings (ie. Page layout = Single Page and Magnification = Fit Page)
    and saves the changes.
    Is this possible with Acrobat and AppleScript?
    Is there an AppleScript Reference for Acrobat?
    Appreciate your help.
    Cheers,
    Alex

    Well, it says Acropbat Scripting ... didn't appear to me as Windows only.
    Will move it to the Mac Forum.
    Thanks.

  • When converting a PDF document to word, the word count feature is not giving me the number of words

    I have been using Acrobat for converting PDF documents to Word.  It had been working just fine, but lately, when I convert a PDF document to Word, it is not giving me the word count, which is why I subscribed in the first place. Someone has any idea of why?

    Hi Robin,
    I would recommend you to use Acrobat software to convert this pdf file, Acrobat software enable you to customize the conversion settings.
    You can download a free 30-day trial from this Link : https://helpx.adobe.com/acrobat/kb/acrobat-downloads.html
    After downloading and installing acrobat, Open pdf file in Acrobat, go to File menu -> Click 'save as other' -> Microsoft Word -> Word Document.
    A pop-up window will appear that would prompt you to choose the file to be converted, after you select the file, click on the settings button on the bottom left of the pop-up window and choose 'Retain Page layout' under layout settings, click ok and then save.
    Hope that helps with your query.
    Regards,
    Rahul

  • Converting ms publisher 2007 files to pdf in acrobat x pro

    I really could use help with my project.  I have a publisher 2007 file which I converted to pdf in Acrobat x pro.  The links won't work.  There are 4 links.  2 to external web sites and 2 are email links.  I tried setting the links in publisher then converting.  That didn't workl.  I tried removing the links then converting and adding the links in Acrobat.  They don't work either after I publish them to my web site.  Please tell me what I am doing wrong.
    Thanks.

    Could you post the link you mention? How did you create the PDF from Publisher -- there are several ways and some save the links and some don't. Also, some are MS methods and others are Adobe methods.

  • When I convert a PDF to a Word doc, it "converts" as a picture and I cannot edit the document. What can I do to get the PDF to convert properly?

    Hi conversionnewbie,
    Are you able to select the text in Word by triple-clicking inside the text box? (Sometimes text selections can be tricky in converted files.) If you can't select the text, then I'm guessing that the PDF was created from a scanned file (so the text becomes images). Make sure that OCR is enabled when you convert the file to Word. OCR is enabled by default in the ExportPDF web interface, but can be disabled in Adobe Reader. If you're converting to Word from within Adobe Reader, make sure that OCR is enabled and that the correct language is selected:
    Please let us know that works for you!

    Hi,
    It seems that your PDF file requires Asian fonts to draw the text so please make sure the Asian font package was installed from Adobe web site then close your Adobe Reader and reopen the PDF file in Reader .

  • When I convert my pdf doc to word, the fonts go really weird and it also puts some text into boxes. when I try to select the test and change the font, it does not change it properly?

    When I convert my pdf doc to word, the fonts go really weird and it also puts some text into boxes. when I try to select the text and change the font, it does not change it properly? This is making it impossible to amend.

    Hi Janedance1,
    If the PDF that you converted already has searchable text, please try disabling OCR as described in this document: How to disable Optical Character Recognition (OCR) when converting PDF to Word or Excel. (If the PDF was created from a scanned document and doesn't already have searchable text, disabling OCR isn't a great option, as the text won't be searchable/editable in the converted Word doc.)
    Please let us know how it goes.

    hi when I convert a pdf to word document I get a inccorect conversion, can any one please help me

    Hey nikolays87340013,
    Thanks for your reply.
    Please let me know what version of Adobe Reader you are using.
    You might need to check for updates as well as repair installation from Reader Help menu.
    While converting scanned PDF into Word, OCR runs automatically and its quality largely depends upon the quality of scanned images and clarity of characters in the PDF.
    Please try the same conversion online after signing in at "https://cloud.acrobat.com/exportpdf" and check if the conversion quality varies.
    Let me know.

  • Exporting PDF document to Excel.  When I export a PDF document to Excel containing lists of  people the Excel page shows all the names on  one line several inches deep instead of on separate lines which makes editing impossible.  What am I doing wrong?

    Exporting PDF document to Excel.  When I export a PDF document to Excel containing lists of  people the Excel page shows all the names on  one line several inches deep instead of on separate lines which makes editing impossible.  What am I doing wrong?

    Murray is right. Padding (and margins) is added to the width. However, when using percentages, you should never use figures that add up to exactly 100%.
    Browsers need to convert the percentages to pixels. Because pixels must be whole numbers, some percentages are rounded up, which results in the final element dropping down below its neighbours. With percentages, it's much safer to use values that add up to 98% (99% often works, but 98% is safer).
