What Acrobat program allows me toTranslate PDF forms from Swedish to English

Need to translate personal, legal documents from Swedish to English. They are only presented to me in PDF format. Willing to purchase Acrobat software,  BUT, need to know what software from Acrobat will allow me to copy and paste text from a PDF form into Google translate, or IM translator.

Hi anything vintage,
Depending on how the form was created, and whether it's been secured by the form creator, you should be able to copy the text from the free Adobe Reader. However, if you need to edit the text in the PDF form after you've translated it in a third-party application as you've listed above, then you need to use Acrobat. Please feel free to give Acrobat a try; you can download the free 30-day trial from http://www.adobe.com/products/acrobat.html. That way, you can see if the software will meet your needs before making a purchase.
Best,
Sara

  • Creating a PDF form from a docx or xlsx

    Hello,
    Pulling my hair out over here... Can you help me out?
    I am trying to create a PDF form from either a word or an excel file.
    When I choose File > Create > PDF Form, I get the dialouge box asking to use either a file or scan from paper. Choosing file, then hitting next shows the choice of current document or browse for file. I browse for file, find my docx file, but it shaded out. Docx or xlsx does not appear in the "show" drop down below, which suggests that this function doesn't support these formats. HUH?
    I have read & watched the tutorials linked below, both of which clearly say Word and Excel are supported.
    http://help.adobe.com/en_US/acrobat/pro/using/WSB3F26303-0F1D-494a-BC55-7BF7F6684B4D.html
    http://tv.adobe.com/watch/learn-acrobat-x/getting-started-creating-simple-forms/
    Then I noticed a difference in the create window from the video, to my version...
    The video says "(PDF, Word, Excel or other file format)":
    My pop-up says ONLY PDF:
    Whats going on?
    I am using:
    MAC OSX 10.7.4
    Office 2011 MAC
    Acrobat X Pro 10.1.3
    Only way I can create a Form from Word files is to first print it to PDF, then use the form wizard on the PDF file... Which seems to have POOR results in auto-recognizing fields.
    PLEASE HELP Adobe!
    Thanks.

    I just got Acrobat X for my mac, for a class.  I am SO frustrated.  Almost everything in the class focuses on PDFMaker options.   The 'save as adobe pdf' or save as pdf options have zero functionality.  So I now own PDF software that doesn't really function on a MAC, and have to go to a windows machine.  I keep reading that it is a Microsoft problem, but I don't know how that can be when the software I thought I bought is this fancy PDF software that converts everything!!
    I asked a tech today if there were 'any' adobe work-arounds for this and basically the answer is to save PDF with no attribute functionality.  Period.
    Wasted $$ for me

  • PDFMaker missing files issue with PDF Forms from Office 2007

    Hi,
    I have Adobe PDF 8.0 Pro installed  (full installation) and I upgraded office from 2003 to 2007 AND Windows from 2000 to XP Pro.
    I used to be able to create PDF Forms from an Excel document when using Office 2003.
    Now, when I choose to create a new form starting with an electronic document [from an Excel 2003 document (.xls)], I get this error message:
    "PDFMaker files are missing, would you like to repair?" (please image attached)
    I did the repair. Did not worked.
    I made sure the add-in in office was enabled. Did not worked.
    I un-installed Adobe 8.0 Pro and Adobe Reader 9.0 and re-installed only Adobe 8.0 Pro , thinking there was a problem there. Did not work.
    I googled for more answers, did not find anything else.
    I am able to "print as Adobe PDF", I can create normal PDF documents, but not the Forms.
    I used that option all the time for work. Can someone help me please?!!
    Thanks!
    Gwen

    Bill, it worked!!
    I updated to 8.1.6 and now I can use an electronic document to create a form.
    Thank you!
    I have another question: in the past, to enable Acrobat READER users to fill out a form and save it on their computer, all I had to do is "Enable Usage Rights in Adobe Reader" in the "advanced" menu of Acrobat Pro.
    I did just that but my colleagues who have Adobe Reader 9 cannot fill the form. It appears as a scanned PDF document to them.
    Any idea why?!

  • Read PDF form from email attachment

    Hope someone is able to help on this one...
    We are using a pdf form at work to gather some feedback and the user will be submitting the form via email...
    Using outlook 2003 I had a crack at writing a vba module to read the pdf form from the email attachment to update into an excel spreadsheet
    Is it possible to read pdf forms from the email attachment with outlook vba? Or does the attachment need to be saved to a directory first?
    I have in the past done a vba module to save the pdf form attachments to a directory and then using acrobat and it's in-built form data collection tool and exported as a csv, but this feedback form will be an ongoing thing that will be updated daily - and to minimise handling would like to run the outllook macro that reads straight from the email attachment instead of doing another 3 or so steps...
    Below is the snippet I am using - it's a mashup of different code I've found on the net

  • I created a pdf form from a Word doc with 9 pt aerial font formatting; the text on the pdf form is aerial 9 pt, but the fields are formatted in courier 12 pt - How do I reformat the font in the fields??

    I created a pdf form from a Word doc with 9 pt aerial font formatting; the text on the pdf form is aerial 9 pt, but the fields are formatted in courier 12 pt - How do I reformat the font in the fields??

    You can set up a temporary button (or link, bookmark, etc.) and add the following JavaScript action:
    // Mouse Up script for a temporary button (or bookmark, etc.)
    // Change the font and font size for all text fields in this document
    for (var i = 0; i < numFields; i += 1) {
        var f = getField(getNthFieldName(i));
        if (f.type === "text") {
            f.textFont = font.Helv;
            f.textSize = 9;
    It also sets the font size, but you can remove that line if you don't need to do that.

  • I need to add an attachment to a pdf form from the SBA it is OIC_TABS_NGPC_nl.pdf

    I need to add an attachment to a pdf form from the SBA it is OIC_TABS_NGPC_nl.pdf

    Do the people who made the form SAY you can add an attachment? If not, do not consider it. The form will probably be read by a computer, so it will only look in the form fields provided.

  • Dynamically populating a dropdown list in a pdf form from a datasource

    Is there a way to populate a dropdown list in a pdf form from a datasource, specifically from an Access database table or query, using LiveCycle Designer. I am easily able to do this using cfselect in Coldfusion, however, cannot seem to figure it out for pdf forms. I am aware of the Show Dynamic Properties option enabled in LiveCycle Designer, and then binding to a datasource. However, this seems limited as I am only able to select single columns from Access (currently using an Access database) tables, and a unable to select from queries like I do using cfselect in Coldfusion forms. Is this something that must be done with Java scripting? If so, is there any other way? I know nothing about scripting. Thanks

    Derrick,
    There is a sample posted at
    http://www.adobe.com/devnet/livecycle/articles/lc_designer_db_lookup_tip.pdf
    It was created for Designer 7.0 but it should function the same in later versions of Designer.

    i hope you can help me
    Regards.

    Hi,
    two options are:
    Oracle BI Publisher (by far best choice but needs to be licenced)
    http://www.oracle.com/technology/pub/articles/vohra-jdev-xmlpub.html
    Jasper Reports, Free but not as functional or easy to use as BIP
    http://jasperforge.org/projects/jasperreports
    Both products have Java API's which you can integrate with your application.
