Prise en compte de modification de texte dans acrobat X Pro

Bonjour,
Un petit soucis: je modifie un fichier pdf (créé initialement sous indesign (information donnée dans les metadonnées du fichier)) en ajoutant une zone de texte. J'enregistre le fichier aumodifié au format PDF (quelque soit apparemment le mode d'enregistrement j'obtiens le même effet), et je l'importe dans un nouveau document indesign. Et là, l'importation du fichier pdf ne prend pas en compte les zones de texte ajoutées par acrobat X Pro!
Comment cela se fait-il? Y-a-t'il une solution?
Merci à vous
Pièces jointe: le fichier réalisé au format pdf

Salut,
C'est normal : l'outil Machine à écrire est un outil de commentaire, qui donc ajoute des éléments considérés comme tels, et non pas comme faisant partie du fond de page.
Pour intégrer ces textes dans le fond de page il faut "aplatir les commentaires", fonction qui n'est pas intégrée nativement à Acrobat mais que l'on peut utiliser après avoir installé les abracadabraTools qui proposent (gratuitement) cette fonction :

Cannot export text using Acrobat 9 Pro

Hello all,
I have a .pdf file that I want to export as text using Acrobat 9 Pro.
File / Export menu appears to offer this, as does the help. But mousing over the arrow to the right of the Export / Text menu
brings up no options. I can export as .ps if I want to, but not text, or html.
Is this an installation option (I checked, and I didn't see any option for this)?
Or does the program refuse to export files with certain attributes?
Or is my installation likely to be broken in some way?
Best Regards,

You can typically use the copy&paste or use Save As. I am not exactly sure what you mean by export other than one of these two options as suggested in the complete help (I am on AA8 here). It may be that there is no text to export. A lot of the older IEEE pubs are simply scans with no text. You would have to OCR the paper to get the text to export in such a case. If you posted a sample file, maybe we could be of more help.

All of my documents are black with green text in acrobat X pro, how do I correct this?

Hi there Doug,
It sounds like you've enabled the High-Contrast Color option under Edit > Preferences > Accessibility (Win) or Acrobat > Preferences > Accessibility (Mac). Uncheck the 'Replace Document Colors' checkbox, then hit 'OK' to turn this off.

Text in Acrobat 9 Pro

I am new at Acrobat 9 Pro, and I am probably doing things wrong. So far I have not been able to create text in a new document with Acrobat 9 Pro, only field? Is that normal?
Also, if I import a document created in word, it will recognized fields but it will not allow me to change text, is that normal?
Anne-Marie

Hi,
In response to both "...is that normal?" — Yes.
PDF is not a file format meant to support editing of layout/format/etc or text content creation.
You'd master content in an authoring application (FrameMaker, InDesign, MS Word, etc.).
The PDF file is the output of this mastered content.
Some minor touchups are possible with Acrobat (think whiteout/correction tape on a printed piece of paper -- PDF page content is the electronic "finished paper").
With that said, you might play with File > Create PDF > From Blank Page and use the Typewriter tool to enter text.
To output MS Word content to PDF use the Adobe PDFMaker.
Prior to Word 2007, you'd use "Adobe PDF" on the menu line.
With Word 2007, you'd use the Acrobat Ribbon features.
Be well...

Align Text In Acrobat 9 Pro

Hi,
Hope you can help. I just got Adobe Acrobat 9 Pro. I figured out how to edit text in a PDF, but when I do it does not keep the text centered.
How can I center text?
Thanks.

Acrobat in of itself is not a text Editor. If you need to make serious cahnges to your PDF you need to edit in original application the remake the PDF.
Acrobat does have a text touch up tool that does allo you to correct spelling of a word by clicking at the end of the word back spacing then retyping word. But if involes more than two additional letters at the most it will altar the line spacing. You can select the word and click on properties and change things as leading and such wher you can copress the space the word takes up. But if you need to do that on more than one or two items at the most, your better off redoing the PDF from the original after correcting mistakes.
On forms created you can make cahnges and update by making corrections in original save as a different name then chose document and choose replace with and it will update corrections without distrubing the the form elements you have created. (unless you added aditional elements).

Proofread and correct OCR'd text in Acrobat 10 Pro

How do you proofread and correct text produced by OCR from a scanned document, in Acrobat 10 Pro?
I scan (many, large) paper documents, then use Recognise Text. After the OCR phase, if I save PDFs as text, I can see many scan errors.
I would like to be able to correct those errors in the scanned text, so that names etc can be successfully searched. However I cannot find any way to view and correct the scanned text.
I experimented with Tools / Content / Edit Document Text, but I cannot see how to display the scanned text to allow correction. It appears to operate on the PDF image. But if I try to change the document image to correct known errors (e.g. in spacing), and then save the PDF as text again, the string where I changed the image becomes gibberish.
How is Edit Document Text supposed to work? Is there any way to achieve what I am looking for (fixing many errors in large OCR'd documents)?
Regards,
Sue.

"This is a 76-page document, and the users will expect to see the image looking like the scanned original."
That locks it down. The only way to satisfy this is Searchable Image (Exact).
The scanned image serves as the an objective replacement for the source hardcopy.
The OCR output exists to facilitate search/find.
At the end of the day there is no practical means of editing OCR's Hidden Text layer with it in the PDF.
That's not to say you cannot work at it and get results. But, the operative word is practical.
In that context you may want to look over a reply I made here:
http://forums.adobe.com/thread/950209?tstart=0
To increase accuracy of OCR recognition:
Yes, there are dedicated OCR applications (desktop or server). Having used several of each as well as Acrobat's OCR I've learned that also significant is the scanner and the quality of the hardcopy source.
Regarding the remainder of your post above.
Ok, I cannot replicate what you describe with a PDF I've been using.
It is a scanned image of a single page of textual content.
After ClearScan I can export to Word (&, of course, have some cleanup required).
I can use the TouchUp Text / Edit Document Text tool to select all the PDF page's content (the ClearScan output).
Changed the font to TimesNewRoman, saved, and exported to Word.
The content in Word needed cleanup.
Next, I selected various words and typed in a replacement word.
After a Save I Exported to Word. The changed words carried through.
re: Q1 - What you describe is symptomatic of the Hidden text output of Searchable Image / Searchable Image (Exact) and not ClearScan. So, I'm perplexed.
re: Q2 - An advantage of ClearScan is being able to edit a text string to correct it. So, sure, why not correct? With that said, it can be a tedious and labor intensive activity. As well, typos are possible during correction which begs the question "Who bells the cat?" 8^)
re: Q3 - If corrections to the ClearScan output meets your needs an export to Word may not be needed.
However, sometimes ClearScan cannot recognize the image of a character and leaves it as a bitmapped image.
So, to correct you'd have to get into a word processor.
re: Q4 - Goes back to Q3.

Can't edit text in Acrobat X Pro

I can't seem to edit text properly in a recently created PDF document, using Acrobat X Pro. I went to the help file, and followed the instructions, but it isn't working right. All I need to do is replace the numeral "8" with a "7" in a paragraph. When I finally get to the point to edit the text, I can delete the "8" but when I type "7', it creates a large space instead.
The instructions said that maybe I have to do something regarding the adobe font, so I did that, was able to finally enter a "7" but it messed up the formatting of the paragraph. Surely it can't be this hard to revise one character?

Steve,
There are definitely folks out there that have had the same problem in Lion. Just to cover the obvious basics however ... Select the clip with the text in it (we are talking about Titles, right?). Then position your timeline vertical playback marker somewhere in that clip. Go up to the preview window and make sure the little rectangle icon in the lower left corner is Blue (enabled) ... a little horizontal line will appear near the center of the text area with a little circle on the end. Then go to a word in your text and double click it. Does it select the word? Making sure again that the text clip is actually selected on the timeline, if it does not select the text then I probably cannot help you. There are other discussions on this topic, but I really do not know for sure if there are resolutions. FYI, I use FCP X with Lion and 16GB on a 2011 21" iMac and use text titles about 20 times a week and do not have a problem at all. Still I know the problems others are seeing are real. Best wishes,
stephen

Question about editing text for Acrobat 9 pro...

I recently switched to Vista and Acrobat 9 pro and everytime I go to edit my PDF I use the "text touch-up" tool just like I should yet the tool just shifts and distorts the text without actually replacing or deleting any of the text. Has anyone encountered/know how to fix this problem? Thank You.

Such problems are not new with AA9. Editing has always been hit and miss. It may be that if you tried to edit one of the files you used to work on, things would work fine and it is simply the particular file at hand. I will not deny that there may be changes to the methods in AA9 that make things worse, but it never was great.

How to copy/paste as unformatted text in Acrobat 9 Pro text field?

Hi all,
I'm having difficulty copying/pasting text from another source as unformatted text in an interactive PDF text field in Acrobat 9 Pro. I have specified the font size, colour and typeface for the text field. However, when I copy and paste text, the text retains its formatting. Strangely enough, this isn't an issue when I type out the text.
I'm really not keen on typing out all the text for all the text fields because:
there's alot of it
waste of my time
potentially introducing typos
Any ideas?
Cheers,
Trish

Thanks for your suggestion! That actually did work pretty well.
I had set up all the fields as non-rich text, cut and pasted the text into the fields, and then change the fields back to rich text to format them (ie superscript, subscript etc).
Unfortunately, now I'm faced with another problem.
I won't be able to add more "unformatted" text later on easily. It appears that to do so, I would have to change the fields to non-rich text which wipes out all the formatting I've already applied.
Any suggestions?
Cheers,
Trish

Editing text in acrobat xi pro

I had to reinstall acrobat xi pro but now I am unable to edit any text or images.
Can anyone advise me?
Many Thanks
sean

Hi iseanwm,
Please let us know what you mean by "unable to edit." Are you getting an error message? Does Acrobat freeze?
Please provide the following, so we can get to the bottom of this frustrating issue:
Are you on Mac OS or Windows?
Have you installed the latest Acrobat update (choose Help > Check for Updates).
Does this problem occur with just one file, or with any that you open in Acrobat?
What happens when you try to edit (error message, freeze)?
We look forward to hearing back from you.
Best,
Sara

Is it possible to remove overprints on black text in Acrobat 9 Pro?

I have a set of PDFs generated that all have black type that is set to overprint. My goal is to remove the overprints from the black type in Acrobat 9 Professional without flattening the black type into the color behind it (like the Flattener Preview does). I want the black type to knockout whatever is behind it instead of overprinting. I would like to know if this is possible for vector objects as well. I have scoured through the Print Production menu choices and especially the >Preflight>Fixups where I have only found options to turn overprints on. I even tried to create a new Fixup to do the task, however I couldn't seem to do anything custom - only reproduce what Fixups already exist in the app with a different variable affected. What am I overlooking? It seems this would be something so simple to do with the amount of other extremely complex pre-press options in Acrobat 9.
In case it's relevant, the PDFs were generated from InDesign CS4, where the text overprints were created automatically by the option being set in the "Appearance of Black" preferance pane (since turned off). The PDF was generated in the PDF/X-1a:2001 standard and is strictly CMYK with no spots. I would post a sample but the file is an unposted retail sign that is currently confidential.
My sincerest thanks in advance for any tips as to how this can be done.
Aaron

This is a work around. Bring the pdf into Illustrator. Go to Select >Object>Text. In the attributes panel, deselect Overprint. In the Transparency panel, select Knockout Group. In the Appearance panel, check to make sure the black is not overprinting by clicking on the Character entry. If not, try clicking "Clear Appearance" (here I got a little lost.
Resave the pdf file. Your black text should now knock out. You may have to retrap, unless your RIP does that for you.
Hope this helps. (I had to keep trying to get it to work, but I finally did.

Copy and paste graphics and text in Acrobat 9 Pro

I'm a new user of Acrobat Pro and am trying to copy a combination of text and graphics from the top half of a page to the blank bottom half of the page. I've not had much success with what I thought would be a simple thing to do and would welcome suggestions. Here's a summary of the options I've tried so far for graphics, text, and both text and graphics.
A. Graphic Alone:
1. When I use the Select Object Tool, I can highlight the graphic but when I unclick the left mouse button, the highlighting disappears, so I can't copy the graphic.
2. When I use theTouchup Object Tool, only an oblong portion of the graphic is highlighted when I click on the object. The only way to highlight all of the graphic is to hold down the shift key and click on successive portions of the graphic until I have highlighted all of it. When I then right-click the mouse, I can copy the graphic. However, when I then place the mouse cursor in the bottom half of the page and do a righ-click paste, the graphic appears to be pasted on top of the original graphic. I can then drag the graphic to the bottom half of the page. I can also paste the object on to a blank page from Create PDF>Blank Page. Overall, this is not elegant nor intuitive, but it does work.
B. Text Alone:
1. I can copy the text but when it is pasted, it is not formatted like the orginal, nor can I place it where I want on the bottom half of the page. This is true whenther I use the basic copy function or the Touchup Text Tool.
2. When I use the Touchup Object Tool and click on the text, Acrobat places similarly-formatted text in a box that I can then right-click and copy. I can then paste the text on a blank page with the text formatted identical to the way it was on the original page. With several blocks of text formatted differently, this procedure could work but would require a lot of work to create a format with placement identical to the original.
C. Text and Graphics Together
1. When I use the Touchup Object Tool and attempt to highlight the top half of the page, the Tool insists on including the blank bottom half of the page in its selection. I can copy everything on the page but I haven't found a way to select just the objects in the top half of the page -- I can copy some, but the selected objects aren't highlighted and so this isn't a satisfactory route. It seems obvious to me that Touchup Object should be able to select just the objects I want. But then, even the Select Object Tool doesn't do that, either -- it Selects an object but then you can't do anything with the object.
2. Using the snapshot tool, I can highlight both graphics and text and copy them -- I can even export them them to another program via the clipboard and create an external file. However -- regardless of whether I just copy and paste, or do a Touchup Object file import, or whether the file is bitmap or jpg -- when I paste the resulting object or file onto a page in Acrobat, the image always comes out at 200% of its orginal size. I looked for a Resize option, but couldn't find one.
This is all very time-consuming and frustrating since what I am trying to do is not rocket science. Surely there is a simple way to do this.
By the way, there are no security restrictions on the file.

Selecting Text in Acrobat 9 Pro

Hello, we have just discovered that
in some documents that I have converted from Word into a PDF are having problems with selecting text. When we go to select text,
rather than just selecting the text I am highlighting, it is only selecting portions as though they are in columns. I went back to the original Word document and cleared all the formatting (there are no columns in this document...it's just paragraphs), then formated the text size and style and saved it to a PDF, but am still having the same problem. I have checked older PDF documents which started out the same way in Word, and some have this problem, but some work fine and let me select only a few words or sentences at a time. But the rest are trying to select words above and below the text I am trying to select. Any help would be appreciated.

Hi,
You might want to look at the "touch up reading order" in advanced, accessibility options. The document will be tagged and you will see the structure of the page. I suspect that it has formatted the text into columns - you can use this tool to clear the page structure and reformat to make the whole page just text reading from left to right.

Typewriter Text Color Acrobat 9 Pro

I have a pdf with many typewriter text boxes in it. I now need to change those font colors...is there a way to do it all at once without going box by box to change the font color?

Depends upon Platform the method but what you need to do is while in Edit mode you need to select all the Typewritter items. On Mc you would hold down option/Alternate key and click on eacg typewriter entery then go to Properties and should be able to change font color. Or you could be able to click and hold Mouse(trackpad button) down while while Draging across and down Page to select the Typewriter entries. Go to Properties and cahnge color. Using the ⌘ (command key) while clicking each item slelects and holds the selection this method you can skip over certain Items. I think the ⌘ key equiv for PC is the windows symbol.

Editing Text Boxes, Acrobat X Pro

2 Questions.
1. I would like to change the fill/background colour of a text box but can't find where to do it? Can someone point me in the right direction. Right now, my text boxes are all white. I would like them to be a different colour with white text. I can select white for my text, but can't seem to change the background.
2. I would like to merge all my text boxes so that if opened by Acrobat, people don't see hundred of text boxes when they click on an area that has text boxes. But they should be able to see the text.
Thanks.
Stan.

Figures I figure out how to get MORE back after I post, but still no properties. This is what I get now.
Anyone have any ideas?
Thanks.
Stan.
