Saving highlight text as pdf
Is there any way to save just highlighted items on safari as a pdf? Just because images are irrelevant to my savings.
you can disable images through the Develop Menu before saving the pdf.
if that's not good enough, you can drag the highlighted text to a TextEdit window and save it there as a pdf.

iBooks is pretty feeble with PDF. There are many other pdf readers available that have many more features. Goodreader, iannotate, etc.

Highlighting Text in pdf Documents using Preview
Am using Snow Leopard (10.6.3) with Preview version 5.0.2.
Tried highlighting text using the instructions in Preview help. No success.
I click Annotate; chose the Highlight Colour but then appear to be unable to select the text.
Anyone any ideas?
ThanksThanks for the hint. I think I've just discovered why I cannot do it. The pdf document I'm trying to highlight is the result of the output from a scanner. Hence it is effectively a "picture" - not text. The only thing that I have been able to do is to choose Annotate and then choose "Add Oval" or whatever and select its size and colour and then position this over the text I wish to highlight.
Because it is effectively a picture you cannot select text. I tried it on another pdf document that IS text and your solution works a treat.
Thanks again

Hi, my first post here so hello all.
Ok i've a simple question really. Can Oracle text display a pdf document with the chosen search criteria highlighted in the pdf??? I've seen that it can do this with html text but can it actually do the highlighting directly to pdf documents???
ThanksHi Omar, Thanks for your reply. Are you sure it doesn't support highlighting??? The reason I ask is we had an oracle e-architect present to us who was convince Oracle text in 9i would support this feature??

Highlighting text in PDF document
I am a surgeon and subscribe to lot of medical journals which are now increasingly made available for downloading in PDF format. I am used to highlighting the important text in an article with an ordinary hi-lighter pen to make it easy when I need to go back to that article.
Is there a way one can highlight the text in a PDF document the way one can highlight it on a paper? Will professional versions of Acrobat solve my problem?
Sanjay GhotkarA little late for the original post, but for anyone else looking to highlight text in Acrobat Pro 9 and be able to change the highlighter color...
Accessing the highlighter tool:
Right-click on the Toolbar.
Select/check "Comment and Markup." This is the toolbar that contains the Highlight Text tool.
Changing the highlighter color:
You can right-click on the highlighted text and go to Properties, etc, but there's a more convenient method.
While using the Highlight Text tool, turn on the Properties Bar (make it visible)
Window: Ctl+E
Mac: Cmd+E
Mouse: Right-click on the Toolbar and select/check Properties Bar.
This will give you quick access to your highlighter properties, and it will remember your selected color between uses.
The Properties Bar is context aware and will change based on the tool you're actively using, so you have access to change your highlight color through it when the Highlight Text tool is selected/in use. -
Can't print highlighted text on pdf's in Preview
I had printing problems with my office printer Canon IR series. the Canon update UFR II V 2.24 fixed this but brought a new problem.
I can't print annotated pdf's correctly.
Any highlighted text is covered with a full colour bar with no text visible under it. It just covers the text.
Is there a fast way of printing with no annotations or of fixing this problem and just print the highlights correctly?!

Just tested this to the iR C3380i using the UFR2 v2.24 and can replicate the symptom. I found that if you change the Graphics Mode from UFR2 to Raster, the text will print. To get to this setting, select to print with the UFR2 driver and change to the Quality menu. Then select Quality Setting button to show the Quality Settings pane. Here you will see the Raster Mode setting. Select and OK the change and now you can print the annotated PDF.
You will probably note that this workaround was the same solution to the Graphics Mode message that appeared with the previous version of the UFR2 driver with the 10.6.7 update. The v2.24 driver stopped this message from appearing but this latest symptom would suggest there is still something not completely right with this new driver, although I seem to remember there being issues with the older driver on earlier versions of 10.6 and the Graphics Mode setting was the only solution. -
Extract highlighted text in PDF
Hi,
I want to write a tool which can extract highlighted text from the pdf and export the text into another pdf file. Can somebody give me directions how to do that.

Copy Highlighted Text in Pdf file
Hi everyone,
Recently I downloaded the Adobe Reader X (version 10.0). This version allows me to highlight text (in yellow colour). However, If I want to copy a highlighted block of text (for instance to paste into a Word document), I am not able to do this. When I select the highlighted text and click on the right mouse click, it doesn't give me the opportunity to copy this text. Therefore, I was wondering whether I can copy the highlighted text in another way?
Thanks in advance for a reply.
Kind regards,

It seems you don't understand where the problem is.
Indeed, I do not understand what the problem is. When I tested it yesterday (using Reader 11.0.1) I actually took some screenshot, but I didn't think it necessary to post them. I'll do it now.
Opening a random PDF from My Documents
then highlight some text
apply the Select Tool (using right-click)
select the same highlighted text
copy (Ctrl+C) then paste it into an empty Word document
Ok, the highlighting did not get copied over - is this the problem? -

I use Preview to mark up student assignments, switching between the speech bubble and highlight markup tools. The speech bubble is not on the toolbar since Maverics upgrade. It also have no shortcut, which means navigating the menu every time since the Text shortcut, under which the speech bubble is now located does not remember the previously selected item and always reverts to plain text.
From a usability point of view, for me this is a massive step backward since the Lion version...
Or is there some hidden magic that will let me switch between these tools without having to navigate the menu everytime...
Neal100% agreed with this. The new interface is far too bulky, Even on my gaming computer's massive 21inch monitor, it's nearly impossible to keep up with my chat group of 23+ people. I constantly have to scroll back up to read messages, making it furstrating and inconveniant. And now that the update is being forced on all of them, they're complaning of the same issues. Like said previously, these are full computers, Not bloody tablets or cell phones, but even then the new skype's even more useless on my Venue8 Pro tablet, I get to see a whole 3 messages at a time (And don't get me started on the Win8 Skype app). And what made it worse, MS has removed all previous versions of skype from the internet. THEN even when I managed to get my hands on an old version, I can only log it in once before it kicks me off and gives me a worthless error message, "Skype Can't Connect". (But seriously, what happened to giving us error codes guys? Advanced users like myself want to be able to fix the issue ourselves!) MS, I'm sorry but, you need to stop fixing things that are not broken. I'm wasing my time trying to correct this now, and I really don't apreciate that. What happened to quality control and testing?

Hyperlink to highlighted text in PDF
I'm trying to add a hyperlink to a FM file that will open a PDF to a specified phrase.
I've successfully added #page=x (x=desired page number) to open a PDF to a sepcific page number, but I'm unable to open a PDF to a desired word or phrase via an external hyperlink.
I've tried the comment command to no avail.
Any thoughts?The "search" option on the PDF hyperlink specifies a wordlist (i.e. words separated by spaces and enclosed in quotes) not a phrase, so it sounds like the hyperlink is doing exactly what you asked it to...
Details of what you can specify in a hyperlink to open PDF documents can be found in:
http://partners.adobe.com/public/developer/en/acrobat/PDFOpenParameters.pdf
If you know the phrases that you need to target, then you'll have to insert destination targets in the PDF in order to hit those specific locations. You may want to contact Shlomo Perets at Microtype, in case his TimeSavers tool has something special that will do this type of link.
