  • How does I resize a pdf file page using Acrobat Pro?

    In Acrobat Pro, how can one resize a pdf file page (21.38'' x 26.75'') into one measuring 6'' x 9'', to be submitted as the trim size? Is there a feature that allows this to be done? How does one set all print options from the Application print dialog box to enable one to adjust the dimensions of any customized file page?

    I want to scale the 21.4'' by 26.8'' content down to one that can be fitted inside a 6'' by 9'' book.
    I have this pdf that was created from the InkFlow app, and I'm using Acrobat Pro to merge three files into one (about 300MB), which I needed to submit to Amazon's CreateSpace, but they needed the trim size of 6'' by 9'', while the pdf is 21.4''' by 26.8'', and I can't amend the source file size of the InkFlow files.
    I tried fiddling with the Crop and Print options, but I'm unable to resize the pdf to match the trim size. The problem on my side isn't so much on printing but to resize the pdf file page to 6'' by 9'' to satisfy Amazon's requirement for their trim size. Could this be done with Acrobat Pro? The message that appears is: Full print options of Acrobat Pro, set all print options from the Application print dialog box. Thank for the help.

  • How to resize a pdf file?

    I have Adobe Acrobat 7.1.0 Standard. I regularly send pdf files via e-mail and when the file is too large I can’t send it.
    1 - Can I resize a pdf file to a smaller size?
    2 - If so, How do I do that?
    Thanks for any help,

    When a file is too large to send by email there are many sites that will host the file for you. You can then send a link to the file. Google will host files, there is also a site called acrobat.com . There are other sites that specialize in the temporary hosting of files and will erase the file after a limited amount of time.
    You can also break the file into sections by extracting the pages say 50 or 100 at a time and then just send the individual sections.

  • Resize a PDF File

    Hi all.
    I have created a multi-page PDF document containing text and images which I want to send to a printer.
    The printer has told me that the page sizes are too big and that part of the content will be cropped in the print process and that I must resize the pages to within the trim and bleed lines.
    How do I do this - are the trim/bleed lines things I can add retrospectively - i.e., after the document has been created - how to I reduce the actual dimensions of the printable area of the pages to fit within those lines?
    Many thanks,
    DaveH

    I show an A4 as being 210mm x 297mm
    The facility (seems to be allowing bleeds and is trimming 2mm all four sides) requesting a page size of 214 x 301.
    You could define an
    215.9 x 279.4 is US Letter size - what does Acrobat show as your page size?
    If your page size is US letter - From Acrobat's Crop Pages Panel - you would first need to add height from the Custom Page Sizes, than Crop left & Right.
    This screen shot is after I had added height.
    The measures may need to adjusted for your local preferences and/or the 2mm bleed.
    Toggle the All radio button in Page Range.
    (Vent - You should use a printer whom you can talk to and will fix this.)

  • Resizing page in an existng PDF file

    HELLO: I am trying to resize a PDF file from 16x32 to Letter size. Use to be able to do this by printing a new PDF document. Can't do that now using the Mac Leopard OS. The "save as" function does not seem to allow any options on page size either. Any suggestions? Thanks!

    Much appreciated. I will give it a try. Again, thank you. ROBERT

  • Resizing Multiple Page PDF file For OCR

    On my Quad-Core Intel Xeon Mac with OSX 10.8.5, I am using either Acrobat Professional 9 and Acrobat Professional 10  to assemble PDF documents from a significant number of legacy page and map images (tiff). Unfortunately, it intreprets the tiff files to create a document that's about 36.7" by 50.06" in page size. Unfortunately, this size is too large to run through the OCR. I have tried print to a pdf on both Acrobat Professional 9 and Acrobat Professional 10. When I attempt to it tells me I can't save to a pdf from print. Neither the tiffs nor PDFs that I made from them are password protected.
    The suggested solutions, which I have found, do not solve my problem. Needless to say, simply printing them at a reduced size does not solve the problem of not being able to to run them through the OCR. Also, I have numerous pages, which makes resizing them individually in Photoshop simply too time consuming as a solution. Finally, neither I nor the company I work for have the money for third-party software that costs very much, over 80 to 100 dollars simply to solve this single problem.
    How can I scale down the page size of either a multipage PDF file or as a batch of individual files within either Acrobat Professional 9 or 10 so I can run them through the optical character reader (OCR)? 
    Alternatively, is there software (Photoshop?) that I can use to batch resize the tiff files?

    Bill@VT asked:
    "Is the problem the size or the resolution? You are saying it is too large
    to run through OCR, but I am not clear what the "large" refers to."
    Being 36.07 inches by 50.06 inches, the image file it is too large in page size (inches) to run through the OCR. When I tried to OCR it, I get the following error message:
    "Acrobat could not perform recognition (OCR) on this page because:
    This page is larger than the maximum page size of 45 inches by 45 inches"
    Also asked:
    1. "When you say you tried to print, was that to the Adobe PDF printer?
    Yes, that was to the Adobe PDF printer.
    2. "Did you set the printer properties to compress the file to a smaller size?"
    No, I did not set the printer to compress the file in order to make the file size smaller in terms of bytes.
    3. "Have you tried printing the PDF you created to a new PDF using the shrink to fit option?"
    Yes, I set the printer to creat a new PDF using the shrink to fit option in order to create a file that was smaller in terms of page size (inches) instead of file size (bytes). When I did it, I received an error message that stated:
    "Saving a PDF file when printing is not supported. Instead choose File >Save."

  • Script to resize pdf-files by percentage

    Dear all,
    I have a rather simple problem: I need to resize a collection of several pdf files (around 60) by a certain percentage, because those files are included in a text (LaTex) - and I need to change the LaTex page style (in other words: the layout) - so that my old images are all a bit too large for the layout; thus I want to do a quick-and-dirty solution and resize them all by a certain percentage (defined by the difference between my old layout and the new, more slim one).
    So - the simple question is: does anyone know either if there is simple free software out there that can do this (I didn't find any - and Acrobat 9 doesn't offer the possibility to change the dimensions of pdf images) - or, b) if this would be possible to do with Applescript? Off course, I wouldn't mind a ready-made script - but, since I don't know, but want to learn Applescript, I thought that this might be a good task to start with - although I also need a solution in 3 to 4 days - hope it wouldn't be a too frustrating task to start with...
    Thanks for any hints!
    With kind regards,
    Björn

    Hello
    You might try something like the following script.
    It will a) resize the pdf image by using Image Events and save it as png and b) convert png to pdf by png2pdf.
    You'd need to have png2pdf installed in advance.
    (Image Events can open pdf but cannot save as pdf according to the document.)
    The script will let you choose source folder where original pdfs reside and destination folder where modified pdfs are to be stored. Also it will let you specify scaling factor. After that it will open each pdf file (*.pdf) in source folder, resize and save as new png file in destination and then convert the png to pdf (and delete png if successful). Hopefully it's like that.
    Script is NOT tested and I don't know how good (or bad) Image Events and png2pdf are, for I don't use OSX for myself. Sorry about that.
    Good luck,

  • Can adobe acrobat XI pro resize pdf files?

    Looking for a software program that allows you to resize pdf files.  Can Acrobat XI Pro do this?

    There may be a preflight script for what you want. The other way is not generally recommended based on the loss of markup and the modification of graphic resolution and such, but you can print the PDF to a new size with shrink to fit selected. As I said, it is not recommended, but might meet your need. You can also do some adjustment with the crop tool, but it depends on what your goal is.
    If you are talking about the file size, that is a different issue and the Save As Other > Reduce File Size or Optimize PDF are the typical approaches.

  • PDF File Size - any way to compress further?

    We have are using the Crystal for .NET export method to export a report to a .pdf file, and are having an issue with the pdf file size on a report that contains images.  The images are stored in a SQL2005 database as blob or varbinary(max).  The report executes a stored procedure that selects data (including images) to produce a quotation.  There are input parms to decide which images to print (for example A, B or both A&B). Both types of images can appear at the line level on the quotation. Type A images print in the main report, Type B images are in a subreport.  Both the main report & subreport execute a stored procedure to select an image type.
    Our issue, when both Type A and B image is selected to print on a 293 line quote.  The PDF file size is 44.23MB
    When Type A only is selected, the PDF file size is 2.64MB
    When Type B only is selected, the PFD file size is 43.95MB.
    There are more Type B images that would print at the line level than Type A, but is there any way to compress this down further as it is too large to email.

    You mention that you are using Crystal for .NET, but not what version; CR for .NET 2003, 2005, 2008. 2010?
    Applying the latest fixes for the correct version of CR would be the first thing to do.
    Next, I'd have a close look at image B as it appears to be the one adding the most "bulk". How is this image different from image A?
    General tips re. images:
    Save the files a BMPs.
    When .jpg image is inserted into Crystal Reports it is converted into bitmap format and as the result of the conversion the report may loose some quality, scale and other issues may arise... E.g.; Crystal Reports is not so good a graphics management tool
    When an image is saved as a .bmp, then there is no conversion required and thus the quality of the image should be preserved.
    Best practice: save the image with high resolution and required size as a .bmp format then insert this image into Crystal Reports.
    Resize the image to the smallest possible size and downgrade the DPI to 72. This will ensure your image is as small as possible and Crystal Reports will have to put in the least amount of work to display it.
    Have a look ar KB [1241630 - Exporting a Crystal report (XI) to PDF generates a big PDF file|http://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/servlet/prt/portal/prtroot/com.sap.km.cm.docs/oss_notes_boj/sdn_oss_boj_bi/sap(bD1lbiZjPTAwMQ==)/bc/bsp/spn/scn_bosap/notes%7B6163636573733d36393736354636443646363436353344333933393338323636393736354637333631373036453646373436353733354636453735364436323635373233443330333033303331333233343331333633333330%7D.do]. This KB, may apply to your version of CR, or not. In any case, you will have to use the KB as a guide and determine what the appropriate registry entry would be for your version of CR.
    One more thing. Many people like to use jpg files as they are smaller than bmp files. However, as far as Crystal Reports is concerned, this is inconsequential. The report file will be the same size if a file is inserted as a jpg or a bmp. This is due to the jpg conversion to bmp Crystal Reports does internally.

  • How to open a PDF-File in a browser with 50% screen view and without any modification rights?

    Hello everyone,
    i have the following problem. I would like to open a PDF-file on my web-page in a new window but this file should be shown without any option to Print, Save, Copy or resizing option (Increase and Decrease in percentage size).
    Is this actually possible. The perfect solution would be if the the buttons to print, save, copy, increase/decrease would not only be disabled but completely blinded out. My perfect solution would look like below so that the user can only navigate through the pages but he/she cannot do anything else.
    Hopefully, someone can help me out.
    Thank's a lot,
    Jo

    Hi Alexandre,
    I don't think this is possible with the current APIs that
    HTMLLoader exposes. (Unless webkit supports object tags that takes
    the source data in base 64 encoded form, which I think is unlikely)
    But it is a good feature to have. Please file a feature

  • How do I send a .pdf file in the body of email, not as attachment?

    Hello to all you MAC geniuses out there. I am using Pages to design flyers for my business. Then exporting them to a pdf file and trying to figure out how to send them in the BODY of an email and not an attachemnt that they have to open. Not really sure if this is a mail or pages question. It is probably a very simple step I am missing, but never the less can't seem to fiugre it out. Thanks in advance!
    Genn

    You must take into consideration that HTML & PDF are very different formats with conflicting purposes: HTML is by design intended for flexibility in appearance in such things as font & location of displayed elements, & has no fixed page size. PDF is intended to produce WYSIWYG documents, exactly the same regardless of platform, but requires either the Adobe Acrobat application or a PDF plug-in to do so.
    Because of this, there is no way to convert a PDF document into HTML that will completely preserve the PDF's appearance. You can more or less force elements into the same relative position using tables & other HTML features, but pagination cannot be preserved, since no HTML formatted documents will have page breaks.
    You also should consider that the appearance of an email message depends on the application used to view it. Most email, including what Mail generates, follows a standard known as MIME 1.0. MIME is designed to identify each element in the message such that different applications can process them according to their capabilities. Thus, since Mail knows how to display image files like gifs, tiffs, or jpegs, they will be displayed as if they were embedded in the text if the MIME tags indicate they should be. Anything Mail doesn't know how to process into displayable text or images, such as PDF's, will be displayed only as an attachment. The same will be true for other email reading applications.
    IOW, email is not WYSIWYG. Some apps will show displayable items inline, some won't, even if the MIME type is displayable on your Mac in Mail.
    There are several ways you can deal with this. You can try to convert the PDF into HTML, as suggested earlier. You will probably have to tweak the HTML so generated with an editor to get the best results, & deal with such things as pagination, image conversion or resizing, so-called web safe colors, etc. (PDF's are compressed & usually optimized for high resolution printing; to keep the message size down, you may want to convert images to lower resolution jpegs.)
    Or, you can convert the entire flyer to a jpeg or png image, which insures WYSIWYG output, but may make text harder to read.
    Alternately, you can compose a new message as plain text or as HTML that refers to the PDF's content & either includes it as an attachment or furnishes a link to a web page that contains it. This allows you to reach the widest audience, including those who do not have a PDF app or plug-in.
    Whatever you elect to do, remember that what you send in the email is actually a combination of content & instructions about how to deal with it, & that not all recipients will see it the same way, no matter what you do.

  • Error when opening a pdf file in chinese

    Hello,
    I have created a specific PO form by copying the standard one BBP_PO in SRM.
    After generating a pdf file with my specific form, I get the error "There was a problem reading this document (15)" when I try to open it.
    I can see some characters, and then everything disappears. I have both english and chinese characters.
    The chinese language is installed.
    If I use the standard form, I don't get the error !
    In the form, I use some standard text, which are created in english and chinese.
    Thanks for your help.

    Just so you know, my default PDF can opener remains set to Preview, though I will use Acrobat Reader when and if it serves my need.
    The upside of the Show scroll bars set to always is intuitive with applications. The downside is that any web content that has the CSS overflow:scroll configured will permanently have scrollbars attached to that content. At least, that is the behavior with Safari on Mavericks. Since I do web work too, I have left my scrollbar setting to when scrolling.
    I believe the OP issues about resizing PDFs has to do with the default nature of Preview to open PDFs in continuous, rather than single page mode. In the former state, one must always fuss with resizing the Preview window, and in the latter, Preview does what it should do — a single, tightly cropped PDF page. Setting the Single Page preference setting in one document does not make this behavior permanent for subsequent documents.
    I made two changes to Preview that open any PDF in Single Page mode, and tightly cropped to that page:
    Preview PreferencesPDF: Define 100% scale as: Size on screen equals size on printout
    Defaults write
    Change to ~/Library/Containers/com.apple.Preview/Data/Library/Preferences
    defaults write com.apple.Preview kPVPDFDefaultPageViewModeOption 1
    Continuous view mode is (0) zero
    PDF documents will now default to Single Page mode

  • I've exported my pages graphics document as a PDF file and can't seem to reduce the file size without compromising the quality of the photo's used even after choosing "best" quality.  I'm trying to send the file via e-mail but it's too big.  ??????

    I am trying to e-mail a graphics pages document I made as a PDF file.  After trying to resize the file, the photo's quality is compromised (really blurry) even after choosing "Best" quality.  What am I doing wrong.  As a regular full sized file (PDF) it's fine, but when it gets reduced, it's bad and it needs to get printed from the e-mail copy I'm trying to send.  HELP! Please.

    If there are a lot and/or large images the file will inevitably be large, no matter what.
    You can reduce them down as far as possible by cropping and scaling them to the final size before creating the pdf. You can do this by opening the images in Preview .app and using Menu > Tools to reduce the resolution and to crop.
    If you have used transparency effects eg shadow, reflection, transparency, 3D charts, OSX will by default render these at 72dpi in the pdf.
