Tools in Adobe

When I open a PDF file the only options I have under Tools are:
1.  Export PDF Files
2.  Create PDF Files
3.  Send Files
While watching a tutoral video on how to create a form from a scanned document I see the following options under Tools:
1.  Pages
2.  Content
3.  Forms
4.  Action Wizard
5.  Recognize Text
6.  Protection
7.  Sign and Certify
Why do I not have those options when opening a PDF file on my computer?

Phillip,
It's referring to Adobe's CreatePDF service that can be accessed via Reader if you subscribe. Promoting various services (EchoSign, CreatePDF, ExportPDF) in a product they give away is good marketing.

  • How can i add a new tool in adobe illustrator tool box ?

    Hi,
    I want to create a new tool in Adobe illustrator tool box, which calls another application. I am a beginner in Adobe illustrator plug-in programming.
    Please help me................
    Thanks in advance

    Much easier with a toolkit but you could use ADO objects,
    get connection, make a SQL object "INSERT record INTO table where  ...." 
    Execute the parameterized query
    Free up record sets data
    close connection when done.
    This is a very simplified version

  • Why can't I search/find text I added in a PDF with the TouchUp Text tool in Adobe Acrobat Pro 9/X?

    If I use the TouchUp Text tool in Adobe Acrobat Pro 9/X to modify a text, the program can't find the added/changed text. But when I just delete letters/words in the text, the rest/changed words can be found. Is that a known problem? Is there any fix or workaround?

    Fantastic. There is all sorts of nonsense out there on how to fix this problem, but your simple suggestion works perfectly. Thanks!

  • How do you increase the font size to bigger than 24, using the typewriter tool in Adobe Acrobat Pro 9 for Mac?

    How do you increase the font size to bigger than 24, using the typewriter tool in Adobe Acrobat Pro 9 for Mac?   Often I just want to label an item on a map that is in PDF and want to use a simple label rather than a Text Box for labeling, but have yet to find a way to increase the font size beyond 24.   Can someone help me with this? - JML

  • Enable Commenting Tools in Adobe Acrobat under Browser Plug-in in Internet Explorer using

    We have a problem in showing commenting tools in Adobe Acrobat under browser plug-in in Internet Explorer.  Adobe Support cannot answer my question and refer me to Devnet here.
    Our system is using browser plug-in to display PDF file by Acrobat under > > Internet Explorer (document viewer). The PDF documents have reader extension enabled.
    We supposed that if a PDF page is viewed and I customize the toolbar, the same toolbar and icon will be displayed next time when I retrieve a page, only if I select "Review and Comment" icon, and it only applies for v8.0.0. If I do not select review and comment icon, or I have selected review and comment icon but > > use other version of 8.x, my selected toolbar and icon cannot reappear next time.
    If my selected toolbar and icon do not appear, I can press F8 to hide the icons. If press F8 again to unhide the icons, all my selected icons can be shown this time. But it does not automatically re-appear if I open another documet viewer.
    Kindly note that all PDF files have reader extension enabled, and only Acrobat 8.0.0 Professional is used in client PC. There is no Adobe Reader in the PC. The PDF version is 1.4 (Acrobat 5.x) or 1.5 (Acrobat 6.x). The user has comment rights since the PDF file has reader extension and Acrobat 8.0.0 is used. User has no problem in mark-up the PDF files, but has problem in showing the selected tools.
    OS: Windows 2000 SP4
    Browser: IE 6.0 SP1
    Acrobat version: Acrobat 8.0.0 Professional
    PDF version: 1.4 (Acrobat 5.x) or 1.5 (Acrobat 6.x)
    Steps to produce the problem.
    1. Scan paper document and create a batch of PDF files (one page per file)
    2. Enable reader extension for all PDF files by LifeCycle.
    3. Put the PDF files into a web based interface, entering a page number will open a new web browser which interface the browser plug-in and display the content of the imaged PDF file by Adobe Acrobat Professional 8.0.0.
    4. Open a page. It only show a few icons on toolbar (see a.png).
    5. Select the commenting icons to be shown (do not enabled in "review and comment)".  The icons will be shown.
    6. If the browser is closed, then use the web interface to open another page, the selected tools cannot be shown (same as a.png attached in my previous email).
    7. Select "review and comment" tool. (see b.png attached in my previous email)
    8. The selected tools are shown again (see c.png attached in my previous email).
    9. Close the browser, use the web interface to open another page, the selected tools are still here.
    10. Unselect "review and comment", the selected tools will be hidden next time when a page is opened by the web interface.
    11. Close the browser, and open a new page in web interface, the PDF file will be shown, and the selected icons are hidden.
    12. Press F8 to hide icons, all tools are hidden.
    13. Press F8 to unhide icons, all selected tools that are not shown in step 11 are shown again
    14. If Acrobat 8.0.0 is patched or updated, "review and comment" tool has no effect in "memorizing" the selected tools.

    That option is nothing to do with the PDF being editable, it's to control the display of the toolbars. "Reading Mode" is when the toolbars are hidden and the black head-up display navigation bar appears at the bottom of the screen.
    PDFs displayed within a web browser with Acrobat/Reader X are not editable, nor can you apply markups, unless you're within a browser-based-review workflow. You have to save a copy locally and open it in desktop mode to make any changes.

  • Get any CS6 tool or Adobe Touch App†, plus two new HTML5 apps, and create anything you can imagine

    Hi,
    in the Offer it says: "Get any CS6 tool or Adobe Touch App†, plus two new HTML5 apps, and create anything you can imagine".
    Does this mean, and I'll call it the MSDN answer, "Get any or all of our applications ?"
    or is the TOOTHPASTE answer:  "you get ONE (and only one) of our applications, plus two free HTML5 applications?
    I would  like to get the latest Photoshop Extended and After Effects;  the first year offer price for exsting customers makes it a very atractive way of doing this; maybe :-)
    thanARK   

    Hi, WaccaWacca,
    It means "any or all" if you upgrade your current Creative Suite to the full Creative Cloud subscription, you would  get to download and install all the products in Creative Suite, Touch apps and several services including TypeKit and Business Catalyst. Go here for specifics on the special upgrade.

  • How to create a pop up calendar in adobe acrobat or any other adobe tool  via adobe javascript  ?No third party tools needed(Eg:formrouter)

    I want to create a pop up calendar in adobe acrobat or any other adobe tool  via adobe javascript  in a PDF form .
    I wish to create the calendar without any third party tool.
    I found few options like formrouter and also pdf scripting.
    But I was to create the calendar via pure Adobe Javascript. If no such option is there  inbuilt pop up calendar control in any adobe tool to design the PDF form and afterwards save the same as PDF.

    All 3 of the options provide are all JavaScript. There is no plug-in used. You do need to place the JavaScript code text file into a special folder so that the menu and tool bar tools that allow execution of the JavaScript code and associate the pop-up calendar with a specific field.

  • How do I reset Cursor not Hand tool on Adobe X on mac with mavericks?

    Adobe just started defaulting to hand tool in Adobe X on mac with mavericks.  How do I get my cursor back??

    Hi glbalwarmth,
    Acrobat / Reader opens with whatever tool that was selected when it was last closed.
    Try the following step and let me know if it worked for you :
    Go to > Acrobat > Preferences >Accessibility
    In the section marked 'General', De-select the options 'Make Hand tool select text & images' and 'Make Hand tool read articles'
    Quit Acrobat.
    Reopen and check.

  • Snapshot tool in Adober reader

    I have copied a few pictures using snapshot tools from adobe reader and pasted in word. I sent the file to a friend using windows but he cant see the pictures. Apparently the pictures are not pasting as jpeg. Can someone help me rectifying this. I need to send him the pictures for a class project.

    I've never worked with adobe reader so I don't know what exact format you pasted, and if the following might work or not. Try copy the image, then open preview, go to File > New from clipboard. If this works, then you can save it as any format preview supports (e.g. jpg). If that menu is grey-ed out, then preview doesn't recognize it... Maybe you can try use cmd-shift-4 to grab a screenshot instead.
