Text added PDF via Preview disappears

I am using Preview to take notes on PDF's for med school. After I save it to iCloud or whatever and open them later the text box get smaller and does not show the text. I have to go to Inspector to see where my notes are so I can fix them. What is going on???

I am with you 100%. This did NOT used to work for me but I decided to give it a shot since this person was saying it worked for them. It works now and I'm happy but they must have fixed this in a recent update.

  • Showing text in PDF in Preview

    Hello,
    I’m currently working with an application that at certain points generates pdf’s to show reports. It works fine on windows, but when I try to open them in the preview on the Mac OS X Mavericks, it shows an empty document. I can open it, select the lines and when I copy/paste to notepad I see the text, but the pdf file itself is empty. I figured it would be because of the fonts that are not recognized, so my question is: how are fonts differently used by preview as opposed to Windows and can someone here give me advice on generating the pdf in such a way that the text is visible on a mac without embedding all the fonts in the pdf. The fonts used are the standards, so Times New Roman, Arial, Arial Black and verdana for instance.
    Thanks in advance!

    Thanks for your suggestions.
    The PDF works fine when opening in Acrobat Reader, both before and after watching it being empty in preview. When I’ve opened the PDF in preview it shows blank, but I can select the lines which hold the text it should have (and during selection it shows the lines, but not the text on those lines; could be compared to have a lot of spaces in the document). When I then copy the selection and go into ‘notes’ and paste there, the text that was supposed to show is pasted into it without trouble. In the inspector the file size of 53KB is given.

  • Inserting text into PDFs in Preview.

    When editing a PDF in preview, I create a text box where I want to put text but i can only have one font or, more importantly, one font style (bold, italics etc) within that text box. How can i make just several words italics??

    Apparently, the only way I have found to mix font styles in Preview is to create two text boxes and manually align them for appearance. You can change font color from the Preview edit sub-toolbar or the font dialog box.

  • Issue while converting turkish text in PDF via SMARTFORMS

    Hello Experts ,
    We are currently involved in translating an application to Turkish. Though the translation is completely done, when we test the issue we find that the application is working perfectly with the Turkish text but the transfer of data from application to the PDF via SMARTFORM is not working correctly. We find that the issue is due to 3 characters in Turkish which are (Ğ,İ,ş), We found out that this issue can be resolved using the  OSS Note 625818.
    However we have another issue which has cropped up.
    Wherever certain characters are being printed the characters right after them are printing at the same location and thus overlapping.
    For eg:
    Whenever the character u201CIu201D is printed it is being overlapped by the character which is supposed to be printed after it instead of printing next to it.
    Should be - İN
    Currently -  both are overlapping
    Any idea on how can this be fixed?
    when I actually tried to copy the text from PDF and paste it in this email the character u201CIu201D is replaced by the character u201CÝu201D in this email text box.
    Please find below the actual text from the PDF. The u201C u201D is seen nowhere and is replaced by the u201CÝu201D.
    GÖREVÝN DEGERLENDÝRÝLMES
    we have found a solution for the same which is to give a tab space between the İ and N but this will lead to unnecessery space in the application.
    Thank You!
    Best Regards

    Hi,
      We cannot print some characters as such, so try converting it to string or char then go for PDF.
    Check the below link and note:

  • Editing Text in PDFs with Preview

    Hello,
    I have a certain peice of information I'd like to delete from a PDF file. I can't crop it since it's in the middle of the document. I just want to delete this string of text from a scanned PDF file. Is this possible in Preview? Thanks!

    You can do a "screen Capture" which creates a .png file, and insert it where you want it, or just send this piece to whoever.
    Screen Capture: Open the file you want, with the part you want to capture showing.
    Then hold down Shift-Command-4 and let go. You get a crosshairs target type mouse pointer. Move it around the area you want to capture. When you close the box around the part your interested in, you will hear a Camera Clicking sound and a file will show up on your desk top called "Picutre1.png". That file can be printed or put back into Preview for further uses.

  • Searching for phrase in PDF via Preview

    Gang,
    I'm trying to search for some text in a PDF document using Preview. If I enter more than one word in the search box, it displays all instances of either word individually. How can I search for the exact phrase? I tried enclosing the text in quotes, but that didn't work.
    thanks,

  • How to add note to underlined text for pdf within Preview

    Sometimes I can right-click in underlined or highlighted text in Preview and get an option "add note" so that there's a text box without an balloon icon (like the one you get by pressing control+N). But it is so tricky that I have to try several times before the option appears. Is there any easy way to do it?

    Welcome to Apple Community forums, Tom.
    Go to View menu >Show annotations toolbar > click on the text box at the bottom and you should get a type cursor when you click on the area outside or within the document or photo. Then type. Does this not happen consistently?

  • Preview - Cannot copy and paste text from pdf

    Hi there ...
    I usually have no problem copying and pasting text from a pdf using Preview ...
    However .. I recently received a pdf ... and there is no way it will highlight the text to copy ...
    The older pdf's are not affected ...
    I did a get info on the pdf ... it's not locked ... and it was made by Adobe In Design CS2
    I tried opening it with Adobe Reader 9 ...... but still no luck
    IN my search .. I noticed one other person had the same problem ... but he didn't get any responses..
    Thanks for any info ....

    If it's behind something else then you can open it in Illustrator and select the specific object you want. If it's rasterized then no.
    If this is a document you can share with the world then I'm sure we could tell you what specifically is going on if you posted it here.

  • Can't Copy Text From PDF Within Gmail Preview

    Hi,
    If I click on a pdf attachment while inside gmail, I get the expected preview window of that PDF. However, I can't copy text from it. If I press Command-C, it just makes a beeping noise letting me know nothing is being copied. If I select text and right-click, there's no 'copy' option. Also, in the top toolbar, Copy is greyed out in the Edit menu. However, if I just hold down Command-C for a couple seconds the text will copy anyways (while hearing a dozen audible beeps). I can copy text without issue using Firefox from the same PDF attachment preview inside Gmail.
    Thanks for any help.
    Yosemite 10.10.1
    Safari Version 8.0 (10600.1.25.1)

    Having same issue as well. I've had this problem pre-Yosemite and it seems to be Safari related. Copy to clipboard in Gmail preview works fine in Chrome & Firefox, just not Safari. As you indicated if you hold ctrl-c long enough it will eventually copy, just forces you to listen to the series of annoying bongs.
    Also there's no copy to clipboard in the context menu as illustrated below:
    http://i.imgur.com/adyyJO4.png
    Pretty annoying really, I'm not about to download a dozen attached PDFs to copy to clipboard, so now I'm sitting in the Delta lounge with my laptop bonging away as I wait for Safari to copy to clipboard and everyone looks at me like I'm a moron.
    NOTE: No I do not have acrobat or any other software loaded besides vanilla Safari. This has gone on on my MBP, Mac Pro and now this brand new MBP I got Monday as a company upgrade, it literally has nothing installed on it at the moment.

  • Difference b/w scanning TEXT vs. IMAGES (or printing to pdf in PREVIEW)?

    I have my scanner set to 300 dpi Color TIFF.
    Is this giving me something different when I scan a text document or when I scan a series of images? Do these then get /converted/ in some way that I am not understanding when I print to pdf in PREVIEW? I run File > Print > Pulldown to pdf and SaveAs pdf. Does this do something to the images that it doesn't do to the text or vice-versa?
    I have pdf's that are from 100 MB to 900 MB and I am trying to downsize them with this set of "quartz filters" (whatever that is).
    https://discussions.apple.com/thread/1292868?start=0&tstart=0
    But doing this on a text pdf seems to work great and doing it on a pdf of scans of images (scanned with the same settings) doesn't reduce the file size?! I have a 33 page pdf of images and it is 66 GB in size and my email pipe is choking on it.
    TIA

    Hi Jason.
    Interesting about the jpg's not degrading much upon compression. For some reason I have moved to TIFF due to recommendations on quality (?) and to png due to recommendations on bandwidth (?).
    Also thanks for 150 px.
    For me it is a little hard to switch back and forth between image settings and b + w settings but I will start keeping an eye on line art settings for b + w. Thanks again.
    Is it possible anyone knows of a way to downsample a color pdf of images that are TIFF and 300 dpi or to downsample a black and white pdf that is in the same settings but is in Color Currently?
    I'm running some quartz filter reduction routines on my largest pdf's (500 MB?!) and in some cases dropping it down to the 150 Average Compression is totally trashing these files. I can't understand what is going on or whether it is only doing it to the images and /why/ it is doing this to the images.
    I mean, I'm getting ready to move these off my mac hard drive and onto a windows hard drive just to downsize them so I can move along...
    Thanks.

  • Finding text in a PDF using preview has stopped working (correctly)

    Finding text in a PDF using preview has stopped working (correctly).
    When I search for certain words in a PDF using preview, it correctly finds all the pages in the document with that word.  However, it no longer highlights the word being searched for.  I have looked through the various settings and cannot figure out how to turn this back on.
    Thanks.

  • Set top and bottom inset spacing values in Text Frame Options via jsx script

    I am looking for a way to set the top and bottom inset spacing values only to 2 points in Text Frame Options via a .jsx scrpt.
    For years, I have used a script that sets Preferences, such as:
    with(app.storyPreferences){
        opticalMarginAlignment = false;
        opticalMarginSize = 12;                // pts
    I would like to add the code to this same script that would make Top = 0p2 and Bottom 0p2 but leave Left and Right as 0p0.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Here is the full .jsx file that we now use to set preferences.
    Ideally, this could be modified to include setting any text frame created to have 0p2 inset Top and Bottom, but 0p0 Left and Right:
