Rotating markups

I'm in the process of moving comments and markups from existing documents and pasting them into the same (but updated) document. Periodically, the markups will paste at a 90 degree rotation from it's position in the existing document. How can I rotate the markup in the new document?

What does it have ???????? I'm looking to see if there is a flag set or whatever. It woked when I first got the phone but doesn't rotate now.
Thx

OCR rotates markups relative to annotation and rest of page

Using Adobe Acrobat X Pro 10.1.13.
I have read may posts about similar content, but not one that seems to address my issue in such a way that it fixes the problem for me. That's probably because i am a novice user. Any help is greatly appreciated.
I have scanned a printout of an automated report into PDF. I added Drawing Markups - Text Boxes as well as Annotations - Sticky Notes.
To do a search for an error ("HIGH" condition), i used CTRL+F, and allowed the text recognition to proceed. I then saved the doc before closing. When i re-opened, the Comments i made are now rotated.
Is there a way to get them to rotate back? I would require step by step direction since i know little about this. When i read about user spaces, java script, etc. I am over my head.
See attached reference pictures. I note that the Comments are rotated as if the coordinate system has shifted/rotated 90 degrees from bottom right to bottom left.
Thanks anyone who can help!

I really don't think Adobe ever imagined people would first add comments, then OCR. If OCR is to be done it would normally follow import/scanning immediately.

I am no longer able to rotate drawing markups

I am no longer able to rotate drawing markups - I am using Acrobat X 10.1.4. What happened to this function of drawing markups such as circles, lines, squares?

Neither of the shapes have fill.
Wait! I thought that neither of these had fill, but the one I can manipulate has fill and when I added fill to the "after' shape I could manipulate it as I normally would. So it appears that I am a moron and was not used to dealing with just the border path, but an acutal filled shape.
Sorry for the waste of time and thank you for the help!

Livecycle PDF markup & annotation doubt

Hi all,
We are getting annotated PDF from authors, to print the PDF we need "Acrobat Professional".
In reader we are unable to print the annoted PDF's with marked.
Is Livecycle can do this process, when I put the annotated PDF in watchfolder, it should throw the a PDF with markup.
So that I can open it in reader and print the file.
Is this possible in LiveCycle.
SHAJI

The link below provides instructions for annotating a pdf in Yosemite Preview, and additional links at the bottom of this page provide instructions for several other pdf editing capabilities:
Select and copy text in a PDF
Fill out and sign PDF forms
Add, delete, or move pages in a PDF
Crop or rotate a PDF
Add effects to a PDF

How do you rotate an object to any angle

I have Adobe Acrobat 9 Pro. I am adding an object eg. square to the PDF file. I now want to rotate it to any angle, which I cannot do. I tried the help menu (TouchUp Object Tool) step by step and i am unsuccessfull. Please help.

Thank you George for helping
From Tools Menu. I selected customize toolbar, then selected rectangle tool from Comment and Markup Toolbar, then OK. Then from toolbar I selected the Rectangle and inserted it. I now need to rotate it.
I have not tried the flattenning method, but after reading the notes by flattenning it becomes part of the page and can no longer be edited which is not what I require. Note I only need to rotate the little square on the page to any angle and not in 90 degree increments.
The notes in the help topic (In Acrobat) on touchup object tool mentions it can be rotated incrementally, but when i follow the steps it does not work out. There is no handle to rotate the object.
Regards
Richard

Ad rotator - add supporting gif for flash file

Hi there, I am using the ad rotator to host 3rd party advertising. I have been supplied with a flash file (swf) and also a gif version of the ad. I want to be able to point to the gif file if the swf file is not able to be played by the browser/device. Is this possible within the ad rotator to have a fall-back gif file?
thanks

This functionality isn't native to BC but I've done this before for a client. Just beware that using an .swf (flash) file embed for the ad won't let you track the BC Ad Rotator links. Typical, image-only ads in the AdRotator can be tracked in BC's reporting but using a .swf file doesn't work and you have to embed the link in the actual .swf file itself. Before we get you working with a flash fallback solution, if you have access to the .swf file or can tell your client what URL to use in the flash ad then you should use the AdRotator trackign URL if you can. Do do that, setup an image-only ad rotator item first in one of your ad rotators. Add that rotator to a demo page to get the URL of the ad rotator (it contains the unique id of your ad for tracking). Once you have that URL you can update your flash file to use that URL to take advantage of tracking on BC or give it to your customer to update the flash file themselves before sending you the flash file.
Once you've taken care of the link in the flash ad or if you don't care about not tracking flash ad clicks in BC's reporting system, let's move on to building a flash fallback ad solution. We'll be using SWFObject which is the correct way to embed flash with fallback content. The hardest part of this whole scenario is we have to get the ID of the ad rotator item (not the ad rotator ID) below.
The javascript I came up with requires jQuery and it's usually already loaded on many sites. Make sure jQuery is loaded in the HEAD of your page or page template where you'll be serving the ads in the ad rotator.
Download the SWFObject project and unzip it locally.
Upload the whole "swfobject" folder to the root of your website.
In your page template or page that you will be serving your ads on, add this script reference to the HEAD of your HTML doc:<script src="/swfobject/swfobject.js"></script>
Download my custom javascript function and upload it somewhere on your website. For this example we'll assume you are placing it in the "js" folder in the root of your site.
In your page or page template where you'll be serving ads, reference the script you just downloaded. Make sure it goes after our swfobject.js and jquery references in the head of your HTML doc:<script src="/js/adRotatorFlashFallback.js"></script>
Now that our jQuery, SWFObject & adRotatorFlashFallback scripts are in place in the HEAD of our page or page template, let's move on to creating your ads with fallback content
Upload the backup image you want to use for non-flash devices to your website and remember the URL/path of that image. For our example we'll use "/images/demoad.gif".
Upload your .swf file to your site and rember the URL/path to that file. We'll need it later.
Once the image and flash file are uploaded we'll create our ad rotator item for that ad:
Create a new ad rotator item
Choose the Item Type as HTML
Add your Label (title) and Item Click-thru URL
In the Item HTML box manually insert your HTML markup for the image:
<img src="/images/demoad.gif" width="125" height="125" />
(I won't be covering styling the ad so you can wrap a div around that image if you want to use some CSS to target the ad:(Optional) <div class="ad-item"><img src="/images/demoad.gif" width="125" height="125" /></div>
Save the ad first before we add the flash option. We need to get that ad rotator item's ID first before we can hookup javascript to embed the flash over the backup image. If you have many ad rotator items already in place you might want to temporarily disable all the ads already setup except the one you are working on so you don't have to refresh the page a bunch of times to wait for your ad to randomly appear.
Goto a test page and use BC's module manager to insert your AdRotator.
Preview your test page with your ad rotator and once you see your ad you are creating, right-click the ad (this works in Chrome for sure) to copy the URL of the ad. You can also see what the URL is just by hovering over the ad in most browers. The goal here is to jot down or grab the ID of the web app item and that should be in the URL similar to this: "/BannerProcess.aspx?ID=32713&URL=%2ftest". I bolded the ID we'll be grabbing. This ID is unique to each ad rotator item and we need that so that we can embed a specific flash file for that specific ad rotator item.
Once you've got your ID of the item, head back to the Ad Rotator Item you just created in the BC Admin.
You'll want to add some javascript after your image markup in the "Item HTML" box
Before we had: <img src="/images/demoad.gif" width="125" height="125" />
and it becomes:<img src="/images/demoad.gif" width="125" height="125" />
<script>adRotatorFlashFallback('32711','/demoad.swf', '125', '125');</script>
Replace the bolded items above with the ID of your ad rotator item we pulled from the URL before and the URL to the flash file we uploaded to the site before. In our case, I uploaded "demoad.swf" to the root of the website. Also, the '125' and '125' above are the width and height, respectively for your flash file. For instance if your flash movie is 300 pixels wide and 100 pixels in height then calling our functions with those dimensions would look like:<script>adRotatorFlashFallback('32711','/demoad.swf', '300', '100');</script>
Make sure the ad rotator item is enabled and you're all set.
You can see a demo of it working at http://www.chrismatthias.com/demos/swf-fallback-ad-rotator
After your initial setup of downloading the javascripts and referencing them in your page or template, the hardest thing about creating new ad rotator items with fallback is getting the ID of the ad rotator item from the URL in steps 12-14, but it's the only way I know of to get the ID of the ad rotator item. I can't find it in the BC Admin anywhere.

My iPod touch is stuck in landscape view. Even when held vertically if I open facebook or safari is rotates to landscape. Have tried turning on and off, same results. Any ideas to fix?

My iPod touch is stuck in landscape view. Even when held vertically if I open facebook or safari is rotates to landscape. Have tried turning on and off, same results. Any ideas to fix?

Try switching it back from landscape to vertical. Or, go to settings and see if you have any special setting turned on that enable only landscape view. Also, try hooking it up to your computer and charging it to see what happens.

Is it possible to add markups to a PDF that I am not the author of

Most of the PDFs I generate are from other applications (like Autocad) where I "print to PDF" to create the file.   Most of the PDFs I recevie are generated the same way.   Prior to Acrobat Reader 8, it was simple for me and my collueges to exchange information on these PDFs by using markup tools and resending them with markups.   Since Acrobat 8 has come along, I now find it impossible to markup a drawing (no matter if I have created it using Print to PDF or if someone has sent it to me). I went to the knowledge base and see that the drawing has to be enabled for markup in one of 2 ways
In an open PDF, choose Comments > Enable For Commenting In Adobe Reader, and then save the PDF.
Start the wizard to initiate a shared review or an email-based review and follow the on-screen instructions. When you’re finished, commenting is enabled in the PDF that you specify for the review.
Well, there is no Comments selection in my toolbar.   Second method is given by
Quickstart: Start an email review
An email-based review lets you track review status and merge received comments into the PDF.
Click Review & Comment and choose Attach For Email Review.
If prompted, enter your identity information to create a reviewer profile.
Follow the on-screen instructions to select the PDF, invite reviewers, and send the email invitation.
If your email application doesn’t send email automatically, you may need to answer alert messages and switch to your email application to finish sending the message
But there is no Review & Comment button to click.
So, can someone tell me, can I still do a simple markup of any PDF?   Even if I have to jump through hoops can I?    I guess I can understand Why Adobe has done away with this feature in their free tool, as they were not getting any revenue off of it, but it greatly diminishes the usefulness of Acrobat Reader and therefore all PDFs for me.
Thanks in advance for your response.

To enable this right you need Acrobat, not the free Reader.
However, starting from Reader X it is possible to add simple markups to any file, unless it has been specifically disallowed by the creator of the file.

I use preview's annotate feature to take notes by making text boxes in a PDF file. When I open the notes up again to review, all the text boxes have been rotated 90 degrees. Is there any way to prevent this from happening?

If I click the boxes twice they rotate back but this is very annoying and time consuming.

Just checking...still no fix for this? I upgraded to OSX 10.8.4 recently and started using Preview to annotate lecture notes, only to find text boxes rotated later on. Appears to be okay if I go back and click on all text boxes and save again.
Any new updates on this topic re: why this is occuring and how to permanently fix it?

X230t and Windows 8 - tablet rotate and control buttons don't work

I am the proud owner of a new x230 tablet and I couldn't resist the tempation to load up Windows 8 on it. Overall I have found the operating system to work fairly well on the system as installed "out of the box"; however, I have noticed that when the computer is put in tablet mode the screen doesn't rotate, even if the rotate hardware button is pressed. Has anyone else encountered this and if so is there a solution other then waiting for the official release of the operating system and windows 8 certified drivers.
Thanks

This is for win7 but should also work in win8 because it is a simple configuration thing:

Need "Rotate" Function in Photo Gallery

All of my screen grabs end up 90 degrees rotated in PhotoGallery. There is no rotate function in Photo Gallery so to deal with these images I first open them in Adobe Editor on iPad and rotate them then save them to PhotoGallery.
Is there a better way to do this?

To the example that you have linked to above, make the following additions
<div id="arch-container" style="position:relative;">
<div id="arch-img" style="position:absolute; top: 170px;"><img src="images/arch-img.png" alt="arch_img" width="959" height="195" /></div>
</div>
I have used inline styles to make it easy on myself, but in reality you would put the style rules in the corresponding element selector in the CSS. Also, you would readjust the values to suit.
Also, it is worth mentioning that placing a width and height on your image as you have done, should really be done using CSS.
Added:
As a side note, I have gotten into the habit of using classes for all of my style rules. I came to the conclusion that this is the way to go when trying to analyse a problem within my web page. ID's are unique per document and as such are used when manipulating the DOM using JavaScript. Now when I see an ID in one of my documents, I know that it is not a styling matter as in CSS, but a problem within my script.
Take the above note as a thought, because there is a ongoing debate about this.

IPhoto rotates images in slideshow even though the thumbnail for that images has the correct orientation.

This problem seems bizarre to me considering iPhoto 11 has worked with out a hitch since I upgraded from 09 ages ago. The photos in my album suddenly changed orientation from landscape to portrait and vice versa and sometimes upside down. I first notice this problem after I tried to click and drag a large number of photos directly from iPhoto to Finder. I did a Command-A to highlight all the photos from my album and tried to drag them to a folder in Finder. There are 34,000 photo in this album but only half were copied, (I guess 34,000 items is too much for Lion to copy all at once). I tried fixing this orientation problem by highlighting all affected photos and selecting "Revert to Original" which fixed the orientation of the thumbnails. But when you double click on a thumbnail to view the pictures or view the album in a slideshow, some of the pictures still have the incorrect orientation but most were corrected. Also if I double click on an affected photos to edit it with iPhoto image editor the image suddenly orientates itself correctly. Then as soon as I close the image editor and view the photo or start a slide show it's displayed with the incorrect orientation again. How is that possible that all my thumbnails are orientated properly but when I view the photo it's rotated sideways or sometimes rotated upside down? Any help or insight to my problem would be much appreciated.

Revereting to original will not fix the problem. When you invoke that menu option iPhoto will read the file again, see the tag that tells it to rotate the file and will rerotate it.
The most reliable way to fix this is to rotate those file before they are imported into iPhoto. Upload from the camera to a folder on the Desktop, rotate those that need rotating, rename if desired and import. I use Xee for that because it can rotate the file losslessly.

Rotate to fit / photoshop image processor

Anyone know what happened to the Rotate to Fit feature in bridge/tools/photoshop/image processor? I have to make several web photo galleries and this most important feature seems to be missing with CS4.

To clarify - older photoshop (or bridge) programs, you could put in the dimensions you wanted and check a checkbox that said something like "rotate to fit". So if I entered 400x600px, then photoshop would make Portrait images 600 tall x 400 wide, and Landscape image 600 wide by 400 tall.
Photoshop CS4 doesn't have that option so I have to go through all of my images, select all the landscape images, put in 600 wide x 400 tall, and run the script. Then gotta Go Back... select all of the Portrait images.. and run the script again but this time for 600 tall x 400 wide. Such a pain - gotta be a better way just haven't found it yet! help!

What is it about this markup that breaks DW CS3 Design View Editing?

Folks:
I'm attaching very simple --and apparently completely valid-- markup that generates the text shown between the markers below:
------------start----------------
yadda yadda yadda yadda yadda yadda yadda yadda yadda yadda yadda yadda yadda yadda yadda yadda yadda yadda yadda yadda yadda yadda yadda yadda yadda yadda yadda yadda yadda yadda yadda yadda yadda badda.
------------end----------------
As you can see by examining the file, it contains only an span enclosing text and spaces, and some following breaks. This file passes DW validation: no errors or warnings.
If I open this file in DW CS3 Design View, select and delete the last word, "badda", the entire text --every "yadda"-- is also deleted. All that text is really gone -- if I immediately save the file and re-open it, there is no text content at all, just the span pair, spaces, and the trailing breaks. This is completely repeatable.
When you edit this file, do you get the same result?
The attached file is a cut-down, simplified version of a production file that exhibits this issue. (That file also passes validation.)   When I delete single words, entire content paragraphs disappear.   So this is not just a point of curiosity. I need to figure out how to fix the production code and avoid this problem in the future.
What is it about the attached markup that causes this issue? I've fooled around with this code quite a bit and the best I can figure out is that DW is confused when both the start- and end- span tags are followed immediately by a line break. Inserting a space in either place makes the issue go away.   But the production code doesn't have any occurances of this pattern. And, anyway, line-breaks have no significance to html, just for source-code formatting, right?
Am I missing something incredibly obvious?
TIA
hen3ry

Nancy O:
Thank you for your response, which gave me valuable clues to understanding the issues.   (Specifically, it led me to re-read and understand better the nitty-gritty of the HTML4 specs, section 7, "The global structure of an HTML Document", especially 7.5.1 The BODY element.)
I believe you are saying --in sum-- that to be reliably edited in DW, each source file must comprise a syntactically correct and complete HTML Document.
I am attaching a second file, "badcode2.html", modified substantially as you suggest. It passes the DW validator, the validator.w3.org test, and the www.totalvalidator.com test.    No errors or warnings.
I do this:   Launch DW, open this file, choose Design View if necessary, select the final word of text, "badda", and activate Edit-->Cut (or Delete).   As before, all the other text is deleted as well. This is repeatable.
It seems to me this sample code satisfies your general principle. Could I be misapplying the three validation tests? Or that passing these tests does not assure the document is syntactically correct and complete?   Can you recommend other tests?
I'd like to add the following two points as a matter of background and a bit of niggling:
--I'm aware that complete HTML pages must contain <html> , <head>, and <body> tags, although the HTML4 specification seems to say <body> tags are optional.   All my production pages, as served, contain these tags.   My underlying design is a php template with individual content files incorporated by inclusion.   There may be only one set of <html> , <head>, and <body> in a page. The "outer" template code provides these tags, and individual content files cannot contain a nested set -- so they must be "bare" markup.   Is DW able to support this design, in which "bare markup" files are seemingly unavoidable?    Is there a mechanism analogous to DW Design-Time Style Sheets to provide virtual existence of these tags so "bare markup" files can be successfully edited? I've looked for such a mechanism but not found one.    Or some completely different method?
--You specify the inclusion of <p> or <h1> tags within the body.    Is there some special significance of <p> or <h1> with respect to stable editing in DW? My reading of the HTML4 spec indicates that a single block element is the minimal requirement for body content. Either of these tags qualify, right?   But so does <div>, and that's what I use in my current example.    Am I misunderstanding something?
Bottom line, I'm looking for a pragmatic solution for my problem:   Once in a while, among hundreds of structurally similar "bare markup" pages I edit in DW without any problem, I lose data.   If inserting an additional tag into all my content include files eliminates these occasional problems, I'm willing to do that, as long as: (1) There is an arguable technical basis for the addition, (2) the added tag does not produce anything visible on the served page, and (3) the validators don't flag the extra tag.
Suggestions, please!
Thanks,
hen3ry
