Paste Clipboard Image as Stamp not working

The Paste Clipboard Image as Stamp Tool does not work - it is greyed out after copying an image. I'm currently running Acrobat Pro 10.1.4 on OSX 10.8, but the problem has also existed in earlier versions of Acrobat Pro and OSX.
I've reported the bug to Adobe more than once, but it's never been fixed. There are a couple of reports of the problem in the forums, but no solutions. I'm posting again in hopes that Adobe sees in and responds, or that someone has found a solution, work around or alternative method of pasting images.
Thanks.

The clipboard in Acrobat seems to work differently that one might expect, at least that is my experience on Win systems. You might try to print the image to a PDF and then select the image in the new PDF and see if that is available for the copy. I just tried both the copy and paste and the and the create stamp from clipboard in AA8 and it worked fine, even from the Windows clipboard. Is the stamp tool greyed out all together, or just the copy from clipboard option? Are you sure there is an image in the clipboard (easy to forget at times)?

  • Stamp tool Paste clipboard image as stamp is greyed out & not selectable -

    Stamp tool Paste clipboard image as stamp - This command is greyed out & not selectable - I have copied an image to the clipboard Acrobat X v10.1.4 o OS X 10.7.4 Lion does not find it.  Under OS X 10.6.8 Snow Leopard it worked
    Has anyone else got this working with OSX 10.7.4 Lion with Acrobat X ?- Its a consistent problem for me on both my MacBookPro & IMac computers

    Exactly, that feature was so valuable for me in previous versions.  I am not sure why someone who sells something would eliminate a feature that customers use. What person made that call?  They are probably working at Microsoft now making those "great products" (though I do like Excel, but only because they haven't changed it, esentially, for years...of course, how much can you really change a calculator?). 
    Please fix this Adobe...I would be your biggest fan

  • Removing "Paste Clipboard Image as Stamp Tool" from toolbar

    Somehow the "Paste Clipboard Image as Stamp Tool" button appeared on my Comment & Markup toolbar, and I can't remove it.  Also, when I go to Tool > Comment & Markup > Stamps > the "Paste Clipboard Image as Stamp Tool" option is always dim, as if it's already selected, but the other options such as "Dynamic" and "Sign Here" are bold, allowing you to select them by clicking on them.  I'm not trying to make the "Paste Clipboard Image as Stamp Tool" bold so I can select it, I'm just saying this to help someone figure out why I can't remove the "Paste Clipboard Image as Stamp Tool" button from my Comment & Markup toolbar.  Thank you.

    Likely that you activated the clipboard by copying something like an image from Photoshop or Illustrator and did this while Acrobat was open.  If nothing is in your clipboard the option will be dimmed, otherwise it will be colorful and allow you to paste into the PDF.

  • How do I paste a screen capture? Edit-paste or command-V do not work.

    How do I paste a screen capture? Edit-paste or command-V do not work.  Tom

    how did you take the screenshot?
    if you used a key combo like command+shift+ a number it will be saved as a file on your desktop
    you need to add control* to whatever key combination you pressed to put it on your clipboard
    *sorry for saying shift before i meant control

    I tried troubleshooting plugins, none appeared to be causing the problem.
    I installed 36.0.1, but no difference. Went back to 36.0.4, still no change.
    I ran a malware check with Malwarebytes, no change.
    A past thread here suggested deleting localstore.rdf, which I tried, no result.
    People have had this problem in the past. No one has any idea of how to fix it?

  • Image drag drop not working in scaffholding. Does it require soem setting?

    image drag drop not working in scaffholding. Does it require soem setting?

    Hello Manoj,
    The scaffolding teamplate which you use to create scaffolding page is actually a design prototype which helps you to create similar types of pages instances very quickly without authoring each page separately (for example news, aticle types of pages) and that is the concept of scaffolding only.
    For example - When you go to location http://localhost:4502/miscadmin#/etc/scaffolding/geometrixx you will see a "News" page which is an example of scaffolding (this is a similar page which you can create using scaffolding template).
    Now if you open this page you will be accessing http://localhost:4502/cf#/etc/scaffolding/geometrixx/news.html and here you will see already design page.
         1. if you access page properties from side kick you will see how this page is configured using target template and target path
         2. if you go to design mode using side kick you will see how the component has been design (which is similar to what appears on page when you came first time)
         3. Now come back to normal view of that page (http://localhost:4502/cf#/etc/scaffolding/geometrixx/news.html) and author this page with some dummy property and click on "create" button. I know here you can not author the image as it comes as disabled empty box.
         4. once you author the content and click on create button it will create an instance of scaffolding page on the same page you can see the link on the top of same page.
         5. Now access that page, when you access that page the page will take reference of target template you configured using pare preoperties to display the page.
         6. On this page you will see the same component you configured and when you will edit it you can author the image from there directly.
    Now question is why to configure same component two times half data from scaffolding and half data from page but answer is the design is correct because the page design which you have created (for example http://localhost:4502/cf#/etc/scaffolding/geometrixx/news.html) is just proto type to create actual page instances and prototype can not holds values for page instance (specially image until it doesnt configured correctly for page instance in this case) which exist only when you create pages using the scaffolding page prototype. Otherwise you have to do more customization by extending scaffolding "/libs/wcm/scaffolding" changing the code and design OR you have to design it according to your target page strtucture which you have configured in page properties (specially image node).
    If you want to create your own page prototype using scaffolding template and want image to associate just copy paste "/etc/scaffolding/geometrixx/news/jcr:content/dialog/items/items/tab2" node to your newly created scaffolding page prototype.
    for more information on scaffolding just refer -http://dev.day.com/docs/en/cq/current/wcm/scaffolding.html
    I hope it clarifies your question and help you to proceed. Let me know if you need more information or help.
    Thanks,
    Pawan

  • After upgrading to Lion Image Capture does not work, even though it is intel software.  Gives error 9931.  What gives?

    After upgrading to Lion, Image Capture does not work, even though it is intel software.  Gives error 9931.  What gives?

    Ouch, if it is indeed damaged, then sadly you need to restore the whole danged huge OS!
    Didn't used to be this way before Lion/10.7.
    Bootup holding CMD+r, or the Option/alt key to boot from the Restore partition & use Disk Utility from there to Repair the Disk, then Repair Permissions.
    If that doesn't help Reinstall the OS.

    Hi whowhatwere,
    Are you only confused about the last access time not change when you open a file?
    If you want to know more details about modified and created time, we can refer to the following KB.
    http://support.microsoft.com/kb/299648/en-us
    About the accessed time, please refer to the following blog.
    How do I access a file without updating its last-access time?
    http://blogs.msdn.com/b/oldnewthing/archive/2011/10/10/10222560.aspx
    The blog mentioned that: In fact, the intuitive definition of access is more specific: It's "the last time I opened, modified, printed, or otherwise performed some sort of purposeful action on the file."

  • Copy Settings to multiple images - STILL A NOT WORKING AFTER MANY VERSIONS!

    I have reported the problem of pasting settings to multiple images for many versions and this simple bug is STILL present in LR4!
    In develop module, make changes to an image, click Copy button, select settings to copy.
    Now, select a range or a number of images to which you want to paste the settings, click Paste button.  Guess what?  Only the first image gets the settings!
    This functionality should work and is even documented in the manual.  There are other ways of copying settings but I can never remember how to do this.
    Am I doing something wrong or is this a genuine bug that only seems to affect a few people (I did a web search for V3), or do people just not use this function?
    Please developers, fix this bug if it really is a bug!

    Thanks Dorin for the information.
    I guess I am just frustrated that the program does not work the way it is documented.  There are two very prominent buttons, Copy & Paste and they don't work as documented or as you would expect them to.
    With sync you have to navigate menus to do what one click of the mouse should accomplish.  All I want is some acknowledgement from Adobe that this is a bug and for it to be adressed.  As a long-time IT person I know this would be VERY easy to fix.  If it cannot be fixed then update the documentation.
    Oh well, enough said.  I still love LR!!!

  • Primary copy paste terminal to X applications not working with unicode

    If I have multiple X applications open, I can copy and paste unicode without issue.   If I have multiple terminals open, I can copy and paste unicode without issue between them.
    However, if I use the clipboard to copy and paste unicode between a terminal and the X application, it does not work.  The only way to do so is to highlight the text in the terminal, and middle click in the X application (I believe that is the primary being used). 
    I am using urxvt as my terminal.
    I use autocutsel to integrate my primary and my clipboard.  I have the following in my .xinitrc
    autocutsel -fork &
    autocutsel -selection PRIMARY -fork &
    Is anyone familiar with a way to easily integrate my primary and clipboard buffers and have unicode between X applications and terminals?

    First, use EasyFind to look for files instead of Spotlight, it's free and finds things Spotlight won't.
    Second, you CAN just drag an app to the trash and delete it. Other files that get left on the hard drive are not that serious. They will not slow up the system they just use up disk space but not even very much of that. Every few months just go through things and clean up a bit. Most of these files will get put in your user library in Preferences, Caches and Application support. Preference files are usually 4-12 kb, a hundred of them isn't taking up much space.
    AppZapper should easily take care of most apps, just don't use it with the more complicated apps.

  • Crop images to frame not working?

    I searched the forums for this, but did not find a thread that directly addressed this issue.  When I export pdfs from InDesign CC(2014), and use the setting "crop image data to frames" checked on, but do not otherwise downsample or compress the images, the images are NOT cropped to the frame edges.  I found this out with the "edit in Photoshop" from the tools in Acrobat Pro (XI).  I have not tested with other settings for downsampling, as I don't want to downsample these images.  These particular images are scans from a copier/printer - bitmap images.  I understand that it does not work on vector data, but this is not vector.

    Do You have to use "crop" or can You use "canvas size"? It's easily doable with a small script. Something like this
    http://pastebin.com/r0EtBj1U
    Copy the content, and paste it in a document with a text editor. Save the document as "MaxCanvas.jsx", and run it via "File -> Scripts" in Photoshop; or via an action or "whatever". Works like a charm but i only tested in Photoshop CC on Maverics.

  • Clone Stamp not working in Elements 5

    I have tried the trouble shooting sugestions on page 245 of Photoshop Elements 5, The Missing Manual by Barbara Brundage. However, I have been unable to get my clone stamp to work. Previously the clone stamp was working o.k.  Do you have any other suggestions that I might try?
    Also, are there some good editing advantages/improvements by upgrading to Elements 7 ?

    I held the keys down while starting the editor from the welcome screen and
    got the box to delete the preferences. However I have not been able to get
    the clone stamp to work. The delete preferences must have worked because my
    brushes were changed back to the original setting. I normally use a
    different setting to show the brushes as circles. I have been trying to
    clone with the Size: 21 ps; Mode: Normal; Opacity: 100% and Aligned checked.
    I have tried both checking and unchecking Aligned and Sample All Layers. I
    tried a different photo but with the same results. When I Alt click to clone
    I get a small circle with something similar to a plus sign in the circle.
    The Edit shows an "Undo clone stamp" each time I Alt Click and try to clone
    but nothing was cloned.
    This is the first time that I've encountered this problem.

  • ADD FILES FOR UPLOAD - IMAGE PATHS DO NOT WORK IN WIDGETS

    Hi There
    I'm trying to add my own images to a widget I bought from Qooqee - the Wrapper_v2 image slider. But when I try to add my own images with the image path it doesn't work. I've tried adding the image with 'Add Files for Upload' - and then using the full path which I get from right clicking on it in the assets panel - but it still doesn't work.
    Most of the widgets require you to either specify the image path, or an external URL. I do not want to use a third party image hosting site to get URL's for every image I want to use on the site - so I just need to know what I'm doing wrong with the Add files for Upload - why do my file paths not work in the widgets?

    Provide the name of the program you are using so a Moderator may move this message to the correct program forum
    This Cloud forum is not about help with program problems... a program would be Photoshop or Lighroom or Muse or ???
    Also, you need to ask for help from the widget maker
