Place Image option is missing in Acrobat 9

I'm trying to add an image object (jpg image) into a document. Following the instructions to use Advanced Editing>Touchup Object tool, the right clicking, there are no options displayed. The option to "place image" is absent.
This previously functioned, but now it'g gone. Any help??

Security Restrictions of the document are unknown.
The problem was
resolved following an Adobe "repair" procedure, then I re-created the
pdf file by printing it to pdf (the document had a few "typewriter"
objects on it). Starting again from this point, the insert image options
were present upon right click.
My guess is that if there are
typewriter objects on the document, this provides some conflict with the
advanced editing tools. IF this is the case, the "help" sections on
inserting images needs some more helpful info of this nature. Thanks for
the response.

Update pushed from Adobe for Acrobat X failed and now the "print to a PDF" option is missing. How do I get it back?

Adobe pushed a security update to my computer and the update failed. Now the "print to PDF" option is missing from all of my programs. How do I get it back?
Version X.1.12.

Thanks. That's exactly what I did, but from the Adobe help screen. It did the trick, but I'm not very happy with Adobe for messing up my system.
I appreciate your answering back.

How come the switch user option is missing from my lock screen?

I upgrade to Lion my iMac Core 2 Duo and now when I lock the screen the switch user option is missing from the lock screen, you just have to cancel o renter as the original user, so that if another member of my family wants to switch and use the mac he or she cannot do it.
This is what I am talking about (image taken from a lion review): http://dl.dropbox.com/u/134544/forum/Schermata%2007-2455766%20alle%2011.05.12.pn g
The switch user option is totaly absent, I just have the cancel.
It that a bug or what?
Please note this happens only when I lock the screen from the screensaver, i.e. requesting the password to restart from the screensaver, if I get to the login windows all users appears correctly and people can switch back and forth.
Thank you.

I just talked to apple support. They said Lion doesn't support this feature. They gave me a work-around, which was to disable requiring a password in the screen saver. Then enable user switching so it appears in the top right of the banner. Note that since the screen saver no longer locks the screen, in order to actually lock the screen the user must click on the upper right user list and select something like "Login user...".
This issue has left me disappointed with apple for a few reasons. Hopefully someone at apple will take note:
1. Apple removed a useful feature.
2. Apple did not provide a response to this thread which would have been the best forum to inform users of this change. It would have saved me and apple one long phone call.

Unable to place images in Illustrator

(Illustrator CS2)
Hi, Im still learning the program but this is an error that hasn't occurred before under the same circumstances. I am working on Macs at uni (as I dont have Illustrator at home) and with images from my USB drive. I want to get the images into my ai document and trace them to make a logo, but Illustrator is preventing me from doing this in any way I try.
* I try to 'place' (file>place...) a jpg from the USB into the ai document and one of three things happens:
1. It appears as though nothing has happened so I 'select all' and this highlights an empty box where my image should be. This always happens on the first try after I open the document.
2. I delete the box and try again. This time not even the invisible box is placed. The computer processes and then acts as if I commanded it to do nothing.
3. Irregularly, if I try again it seems like it's about to happen (with a preview showing and asking me to approve) and then I get the message "the operation cannot complete because of an unknown error".
* I tried opening the jpg in Photoshop and copying and pasting from there and got the same "unknown error" message, followed by the empty invisible box.
* The images place in photoshop with no problem.
* The images cant be dragged and dropped into Illustrator.
* I tried opening the image with Illustrator and get the message "insufficient memory was available to complete the operation". The image is only small - less than 1MB.
* I tried changing the file to a tiff and a pdf. I tried uploading the jpg to internet and saving and placing from there but this is unsuccessful. I tried other images saved both from my computer and the uni computer and they dont work.
* SOMETHING WORKS: I tried with random images from the internet and some (usually around 4kb) saved to Documents and placed are done so successfully. But this is no use to me.
I have done this in the past and there have been no problems placing or pasting images whatsoever. I dont think uninstalling is really an option as they are the uni's computers and that would probably be an ordeal.. I really need this to be fixed quickly as I have no other access to Illustrator and it's part of a job. It happens with all the computers in the lab. I cant even start making the logo until this is overcome. I would really appreciate some help! your ideas on what the problem could be and what needs to be done to fix it.
Thanks for your time,
Simon.

One causes of this error I've encountered has to do with the volume size of the disk the user's home folder is stored on.
I'm guessing that Simon Manion is logged onto the Mac at his university using a networked home folder that is stored on a volume larger than Illustrator scratch disk management routines can handle. (2TB is the limit I think.)
The workaround that I've been using is to create a 500MB disk image with Disk Utility, mounting the image, and using it as the only scratch disk. You may need to make your disk image larger. (Remember to restart Illustrator for the new scratch settings to take effect.)
Even though the actual local volumes are under 2TB, they don't seem to work as scratch disks if the user's home folder lives on a large server. For some reason, setting the scratch disk to a virtual volume gets thing working correctly.
This has solved the place image problem for me in Illustrator CS, CS2, and CS3.

Place images to a specific spot in a template

I am trying to create an action that will drop images into a specific spot in another document and save it with a certain file name. After the first image is dropped in and saved, I want my next image to do the same and so on. I have all my images cropped to the correct ratio and being pulled from a folder on my desktop. I have my template open in Photoshop where I want my images from that folder to be dropped into. Is this possible?
Any help is greatly appreciated!!

What you want to do can be done but it is complex and actions have some limitations and can not use logic without using a script or two. File saving can be tricky for an action will always save the same file name or use the current document name saved either overwriting the file or saving it to some other particular folder. Action that populate a template can be created but it will always populate the same number of images because an action can not use logic to find out how many spots there are to populate. There are different ways to drop an image into the active document you can paste into an area or just past in the image in as a new layer. You can also Place images in as smart objects. Each method has some advantages and disadvantages. Layers can also be aligned with selections and layers can be transformed in size. Your best off creating rule for creating a template and have a plan as to how your going to populate these templates that follow your rules. To protect the template from alteration you may want to dupe the template close the original and work on the duped version. When you dupe the template you can give the dupe a name if you do not name it the new document will have the same name with copy appended.
Scripting is more powerful then Action but they are programs that are written in a scripting language. Photoshop supports three languages. VBS, Applescript and Javascript. Only Javascript is supported on both the MAC and PC platforms. Even using Javascript you may need to code the script to work on both platforms for I'm sure there are some differences in the OS and file system the may need special handling to work on both platform. From you description of you work-flow it is hard to tell exactly what you are doing. If you trying simple create a photo Collage. You may want to have a look at my free Package for Photoshop called "Photo Collage Toolkit" . I have been told this package works on a MAC but I created it and tested it on widows and got it To work with CS2, CS3, CS4 and CS5.
Photo Collage Toolkit UPDATED Sept 24, 2011 added a script to replace a Populated Layered Collage Smart Object Image with an other image with resizing.
Photoshop scripting is powerful and I believe this package demonstrates this.
The package includes four simple rules to follow when making Photo Collage Template PSD files so they will be compatible with my Photoshop scripts.
There are eight scripts in this package they provide the following functions:
TestCollageTemplate.jsx - Used to test a Photo Collage Template while you are making it with Photoshop.
CollageTemplateBuilder.jsx - Can build Templates compatible with this toolkit's scripts.
LayerToAlphaChan.jsx - Used to convert a Prototype Image Layer stack into a template document.
InteractivePopulateCollage.jsx - Used to interactively populate Any Photo Collage template. Offers most user control inserting pictures and text.
ReplaceCollageImage.jsx - use to replace a populated collage image Smart Object layer with an other image correctly resized and positioned.
PopulateCollageTemplate.jsx - Used to Automatically populate a Photo Collage template and leave the populated copy open in Photoshop.
BatchOneImageCollage.jsx - Used to Automatically Batch Populate Collage templates that only have one image inserted. The Collage or Image may be stamped with text.
BatchMultiImageCollage.jsx - Used to Automatically Batch Populate Any Photo Collage template with images in a source image folder. Easier to use than the interactive script. Saved collages can be tweaked.
Note: Rags Gardner www.rags-int-inc.com Photoshop Collage Template Builder script Copyright (c) 2006 builds layered Photo Collage Template psd files. Rags's has given me permission to include a modified version of his script in my package. The modification converts Rags's layered image template document into a flattened template compatible with Photoshop "Photo Collage Toolkit" package. There is also an option that will instead create a layered image stack like Rags's templates are these are also produced if you attempt to create a template with more then 53 images.
Photoshop only supports up to 53 Alpha channels therefore with its design the Photo Collage Toolkit can only support collages with 1 to 53 images. I do not feel this is a big limitation for if you put 53 3:2 aspect ratio images on a large 16" x 20" paper they would need to be less then 1.9" x 2.86" in size if you wanted a frame around each and less then .95" x 1.43" on a 8" x 10" year book page size.
While the maximum number of images in a collage is 53 you can actually create larger collages by populating a large number of images into several collages and then populate yet an other collage template with these populated collages. Each will be placed into the collage of collages as a single smart object layer. You may want to save the populates PSD file as Jpeg files first to cut down on the overhead of having large PSD file smart object layers in the collage of collages.

Ntfs-export option is missing

hello have buy usb etxrme (64 gb) a year ago.is NTFS by default?i can't remember if i convert it from FAT 32.i have 3 questions:1)why when i formating via windows i see two options?(NTFS and exFAT) in other usb drives i see 3 options:NTFS-FAT32-exFAT.is that normal? and if isn't NTFS by default how can converted to FAT32 again?2)when i wnat to mak a safe export i can' t do it with right clik from settings window.this option is missing.i can do ti only with icon in right corner.also is that normal?3)how can attach a screenshot?

have buy usb etxrme (64 gb) a year ago.is NTFS by default?
No, if new it would have been exFAT.
why when i formating via windows i see two options?(NTFS and exFAT)
Microsoft doesn't recommend FAT32 for large drives. The cluster size is too big. 32 KB vs 8 KB. And I don't recommend NTFS for flash drive due to it's journeling overhead.
if isn't NTFS by default how can converted to FAT32 again?
Maybe a MAC machine can do it. Or some utility you download. If the files on it are important to you be sure to copy them all to your harddrive or another USB drive before you format it.
2)when i wnat to mak a safe export i can' t do it with right clik from settings window.this option is missing.i can do ti only with icon in right corner.also is that normal?
I've never heard of this option so I can't help you. What version of Windows are you using?
3)how can attach a screenshot?
You upload your image someplace then post a link to it.

Using the paste options randomly misses out text, don't use it and use the 'Paste Special...' option instead (MS Outlook)

Also there seems to be no obvious way to report Office bugs. This is leaving little room for improvement. Not sure if there has been any planning on this front???
For example, [MS Outlook] using the paste options randomly misses out text, (don't use it and use the 'Paste Special...' option instead). But how do I communicate this to the Office team without knowing at least one of the team personally (which I
don't)???

Hi,
Do you have this issue when pasting in other programs?
If you are pasting something into Outlook, some formats and images may get lost, especially when you choose the Paste Options as Keep Text Only.
Once you have this issue again, please try with "Keep Source Formatting". This may keep the Sour Formatting and you may not get the text lost.
If you have any feedback when using our products, I suggest you press Ctrl + Alt + 7 or Ctrl + Alt + 8 to submit it. Microsoft will always listen to users' voice and make the products better and easier to use.

Illustrator Crashing when using the "Place Image" Command

I my efforts to keep my software updated, I ran and installed all of the Adobe CS 3 updates this morning. Since then, any time I attempt to use the Place command Illy immediately crashes. I don't even get far enough to tell it what I'm trying to place, so I don't think this is can be the image I'm placing.
When I have had issues with Illy in the past, reinstalling from the original disk seemed to fix things, but not this time. I have reinstalled twice now, but it changes nothing. I can copy and paste the images in just fine, but I cannot use the place command without a crash.
Any ideas anyone? I really could use some help...
Thank you in advance for your time -
Scott in California

Nini's probably right. But I remember having the same sort of trouble in Illy5. There was some sort of conflict between Acrobat and Illy so that when you had been using Acrobat and then switched back to Illy it became impossible to place images or select already placed images without Illy crashing. The crash was so pervasive that you had to restart your machine to get things back on track; it wasn't enough to just restart Illy. We never discovered the reason but the problem disappeared on upgrading to Illy6.

How do i hide the "print as image" option in the menu ?

I need to hide the "print as image" option in the menu for some users.
what would be the best way to do it ?
(the result should be that the users do not see the print as image option when they want to print something
with Adobe Acrobat reader)
Thanx

Hello there, you can start with this
Check Firefox page settings
If a web page prints incorrectly in Firefox:
At the top of the Firefox window, click on the Firefox button, go over to the Print... menu (on Windows XP, click on the File menu) and select Print Preview. The print preview window will appear.
In the print preview window, make sure Scale is set to Shrink To Fit.
Make sure the Portrait orientation is set.
Click Page Setup.... The Page Setup window will appear.
In the Page Setup window, click the Margins & Header/Footer tab.
In the Margins section, make sure the page margins are set correctly (the default setting is 12.7 mm, or 0.5 in).
Click OK to close the Page Setup window and return to the Print Preview window.
Back in the Print Preview window, click Print. The Print window will appear.
Make sure the correct printer is shown in the Name field.
Make sure the Print to file setting is not selected.
If you made changes, go ahead and attempt to print the page again. If not, follow the instructions below.

When using "Reset Safari" - some of the options were missing?

When I am finished surfing the net BUT before closing Safari, I would always choose the "RESET SAFARI" option to clear and tracks I may have left behind and to ensure any data that I put in was not stored. This morning when I attempted to use the "Reset Safari" feature (Safari -> Reset Safari), I noticed that four of the options were missing. 'Remove all webpage preview images', 'Reset all website notification warnings', 'Remove saved names and passwords', and 'Remove other autofill form text'. Where did they go ? How do I now execute these functions ? Why where they removed ? I am running Safari (6.1)

You do not have to worry about other items that were there previously.
I am happy that reset "User names and passwords" was removed.
Users used to reset that option inadvertently, resulting in need to renter that data
when they visit those sites again.
Best.

Refreshment problem when place image.

Hi Experts,
When I insert image using script then there is a refreshment problem.
In place of second image there place first image.
while if I debug this it place in correct order. But in Run case script not place image in order.
There is a refreshment problem After place First image it not refresh and have first image.
How solve this problem That i place image in proper order in Script Run mode.
#target indesign
var myDocument=app.activeDocument; //Active document have 10 spread with text frame
for(int i=0; i<10;i++)
var ImagePath="D:\Indesign\" + i + ".indd"; // There are 0.indd to 9.indd, 10 image in "D:\Indesign\"
var myTextFrame=myDocument.spreads.item(i).textFrames.firstItem();
myTextFrame.place(File(ImagePath)); // ImagePath is path of image
Thanks.

My problem is like this :
I want place image in a text box
File(menu)-->place....-->(Dialog open then Select Image file then click on open)->then image is attach with cursor. (I do not click on .indd open screen).
Now I run the script from ExtendedTool Kit
#target indesign
var myDocument=app.activeDocument;
var myTextFrame=myDocument.spreads.item(0).textFrames.firstItem();
$.sleep(2000);
myTextFrame.place(File("/C/DOCUME~1/ADMINI~1/LOCALS~1/Temp/temp.jpg"));
$.sleep(2000);
var graphic=myTextFrame.allGraphics[0];
graphic.select(SelectionOptions.REPLACE_WITH);
graphic.geometricBounds =["-47.853527","-157.370275","1231.018230","709.576702"];
When this script run then it place the image which I am select from File(menu)-->place....-->(Dialog open then Select Image file then click on open).
Not from the path "/C/DOCUME~1/ADMINI~1/LOCALS~1/Temp/temp.jpg"
This is the problem to place image. So there is image duplicasy and some image missing.
Is there is solution of this problem ?
How remove image which is already attach with cursor ?
Thanks.

Manually PLACE images and other files in illustrator

I see a tutorial of Infographics by Nigel French, In this tutorial when the Mr Nigel use place option to import images or other illustrator files the illustrator not auto put images at center but ask where to place images or how much area to be covered by this image or file.
I search about this but not found anything relating to this topic, I don't know whether this is plugin or illustrator function/feature.
I hope you would answer,
Here are the pictures to ellaborate

Thanks Monikia for answering
Yes I mean place gun with 1/1 symbol besides the arrow but how to enable this in CS6 version 16.2.1. I haven't seen any option in preference or in place window.

Place image on canvas

Hi.
I am trying to place image on canvas.
However the image doesn't show!!!!!!!!!!!!! :(
no error and compiles well....
private void AddTile(String image, int startx, int starty, int endx, int endy)
try{
tiles = ImageIO.read(new File(image));
catch(Exception e)
System.out.println("Image not Found");
Graphics2D a =(Graphics2D)tiles.getGraphics();
a.drawImage(tiles, 20,20,20,20,TileCanvas);
if the above function is called the image should be placed on canvas right?
TileCanvas is a canvas, and tiles is BufferedImage.
just in case I'll put my source code followed by this

You have at least two problems.
1) You are mixing AWT and Swing. Instead of using a Canvas you should use either a JComponent or a JPanel.
2) In Swing, drawing such are you are doing should be done within the paintComponent(Graphics g) method using the Graphics provided as an argument to the method.
P.S. I can't test you code because for some reason you feal the need to use a NetBeans specific layout manager.
