When I Apply Redaction to the selected area the area is redacted, however the rest of the doc becomes unreadable. Is there a fix for this?

FYI - I am using Acrobat X Pro v 10.1.13
If I convert a MS Word Document to a PDF file the Redaction works fine without affecting the rest of the document.
The problem I am describing below only seems to happen on documents that have been scanned to PDF from my Lanier Copier/Printer/Scanner/Fax machine MP C3502.  I purchased the Adobe PDF software for the machine so that I could scan from the machine directly to my computers. The scan arrives onto both of my computers, no problem. I can open them and print them with no problems. Both Computers have Acrobat Pro X software on them.
Here is what I do:
1. I receive an Invoice in the mail
2. I scan it at 600dpi from my Lanier machine to my computers
3. I open the scanned PDF doc on my computer
4.I select Save As and give the doc a name
5. I open the Tools and go to Protection
6. I select Mark for Redaction
7. I select the area I want Redacted
8. I Apply Redaction
9. I answer, Yes to the pop up window asking me if I want to Apply the Redaction
10. Another pop up window confirms the Redaction is successful
11. At this point I can see that the Redaction had occurred however the rest of the document appears washed out and I cannot read any other information on the document.  Thing such as bar codes or header in color all seem to be fine but all the type is washed out and unreadable.  I normally use Black for my redaction color however I have tried using other colors and I get the same effect.
When I first installed the Acrobat Pro X software a few years ago I never had any problems,  I recently began updating the Acrobat software a few months ago and now I have this problem,
I would appreciate any help.
Thank you,
BG10

Thank you. I figured it out right before I heard from you.  Running the OCR before the redaction made it work correctly.
Thank you so much for taking the time to answer my question.
Make it a great day.

  • I installed Adobe Web and Design Preium CS6 on windows 8.1, but when I open the program the size of the menus and tools are so tiny. It is not like that for Acrobat, but all the other programs. Is there a fix for this?

    Thanks for the help. I installed CC and it fixed everything but Photoshop. I guess I will have to use my old laptop for images until Adobe fixes the problem. Do you know of a place where we can send issues like these to Adobe?

  • After upgrading to ios6 my iphone will not open .xls files in emails with the default viewer. Is there a fix for this? The same emailed .xls files still open on my ipad using ios5 while viewing email like they did on my iphone prior to upgrading.

    After upgrading to ios6 my iphone will not open .xls files in emails with the default viewer. Is there a fix for this? The same emailed .xls files still open on my ipad using ios5 while viewing email like they did on my iphone prior to upgrading. I have no special software like numbers or anything else installed on either device. Just using the default viewer provided by apple for viewing email.

    The attachment is an .xls excel 97-2003 spreadsheet. I viewed the file in the email and did not edit it with any software. I can forward the file to anyone that is may want to check it out to see if they can help me. I was wondering if there was some way of forcing another ios6 install on my phone and maybe that would solve it.
    Is there anyone out there that is viewing .xls files in email using ios6 w/o any other software installed like numbers or any other add ons? I am not upgrading my ipad from ios5 to ios6 so I can still continue to view the emails on my ipad. Is there an email viewer .xls plug-in that will be availablle in the next ios6 update?

  • I just bought the new PowerShot G1X. Aperture cannot read the raw files. Is there a fix for this?

    I just bought the new PowerShot G1X. Aperture cannot read the raw files. Is there a fix for this? I am using Aperture 3.2.2 with a MacBook Pro.

    I don't know -- sorry.  I don't think it matters -- once your camera is supported, you can easily force a re-processing of the Masters.  If you can import them as RAW+JPEG pairs, I would.  Set the JPG as Master until Aperture can convert the RAWs.
    I don't use RAW+JPEG.  Can someone who does offer some suggestions  .
    (Added:)
    And _always_ back up your files.  In this case, if you have to, you'll be able to re-import them.

  • Just recently update my Apple TV and iTunes, every time now I turn on my Apple TV, I have to go to my computer and close and reopen Itunes several times before my Photos share to the Apple TV.  Is there a fix for this??

    This indicates the device is in recovery mode.
    Connect it to a computer running iTunes and restore it.

  • When I use my iPhone 4 my cheek hits the mute/speaker buttons is there a fix for this?

    When I am on calls with my iPhone 4 which I just purchased at full price ---- my cheeck hits the mute and/or speaker button....is there a fix for this without taking phone apart?

    If the iPhone is new and you take it apart, kiss the warranty goodbye.
    Are you using a case that may be blocking or partially blocking the iPhone's proximity sensor? If you are using a case, remove the case before the next call to see if the same occurs without the case. If not, get another case.

  • I dropped my iphone 4s and the screen quickly went to stripes then to black. After pressing buttons the next day, the phone works, but the charge was totally depleted and the screen shakes. Is there a fix for this?

    I dropped my iphone 4s (it had an otterbox-thick case on it at the time of drop) last night and the screen quickly went to different colored stripes then to black. The phone wouldn't work. This morning, I was pressing all the buttons I could-at the same time and the phone turned on with the battery completely depleted. At the time of the drop the phone had 98% charge. I plugged the phone in and began charging, however, the screen shakes. Is there a fix for the shaking of the screen? The phone works otherwise. Unfortunately, I don't have warranty on it and have only had the phone since November.

    Obviously your phone was damaged by the fall. Take it in for evaluation, servicing and/or replacement at an Apple store or authorized service provider.
    Since it is out of warranty you will, most likely, have to pay.

  • I am using Telerik Web controls Q4 2006 and noticed linkbuttons inside an ajaxified radgrid do not allow Response.Redirects within the ItemCommand event. Is there a fix for this?

    Hi Charlotte,
    You don't say what your version of Windows you have. Assuming XP, go to Start | Run, type DXDIAG and click OK. Click the Sound tab and run the tests to eliminate a hardware problem first of all. If you don't hear anything, check your cables first of all. Also make sure "Mute" isn't checkmarked in your sound setup. You'll find that in Windows Control Panel.
    Which browser do you use? If you have Firefox 4, sign up to the HTML5 trial @ http://www.youtube.com/html5
    HTML5 is the latest video standard and doesn't require Flash player. Google is in the process of converting all its files to work with the new format. It may solve you problem. If you don't have Firefox 4, you can get it from here: http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/fx/
    IE8 doesn't support HTML5.
    To clean out your temp files, go to Start | Run, type: CLEANMGR and click OK. Click OK again to start the utility. Tick all the boxes except "Compress old files" because the latter takes too long, and then click OK. You can run this utility any time you wish by the way.
    The above steps will hopefully fix your problem. If not, post here again please.

  • On Windows 8.1 and Firefox 36.0.1 the textarea in forms has no carriage returns. Earlier versions the forms work. Is there a fix for this?

    Prior to this version of Firefox 36.0.1, the <textarea> in my HTML forms was working; displaying carriage returns. In version 36.0.1 they no longer function properly. Instead when I enter a carriage return, it displays a space instead of a newline. I went to the most basic textarea testing
    &lt;textarea&gt; name="comments" cols=20 rows=10 &lt;/textarea&gt;
    to make sure I wasn't introducing anything with other languages.
    I am using Windows 8.1 Pro. I rolled back to Firefox 35.0 and everything works fine. I install 36.0.1 and it stops working.
    I have access to another Laptop also running the same version of windows and Firefox and it appears to be doing strange things as well. I am suspicious in that I started noticing this immediately after a windows upgrade last night. The laptop also experienced the issues it is having immediately after a windows update yesterday evening.
    I have yet another PC running a different version of windows and Firefox and it too works fine. It looks like the issue is where there is windows 8.1 Pro and Firefox 36.0.1.
    Do you guys have any idea what is going on here?
    Thanks

    The current release supports the white-space property for a text area and it is possible that the website uses white-space: pre instead of white-space: pre-wrap.
    The former will prevent Firefox from wrapping the text.
    You can check that in the Inspector via the right-click context menu.
    *https://developer.mozilla.org/Tools/Page_Inspector
    See:
    *https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/Firefox/Releases/36#CSS
    <blockquote>The white-space property is now working on <textarea> HTML elements (bug 82711).</blockquote>

  • I recently upgrated to latest Firefox 7.0.1. I am getting Corrupted Content Error trying to load pages on certain web sites. Try again works but not the initial attempt. Is there a fix for this.

    This frequently happens with I select an article in an email from New York and it tries to load that article from http://www.nytimes.com/. It also happens when I select the URL below. I tried Internet Explorer with the URL below and did not experience the problem.

    This is not a cure but will make it easier if Firefox locks up.

    Well the error codes occur at the white warning screen when it crashes....It says press a key or wait for reboot.  I would have tot be at my mac at the random time it does it.  I will keep a lookout but it will be hard to get, becuase i would have to take an actual picture of it! 

  • "resource shortcuts are currently disabled" error message in citrix receiver after Mozilla upgrade- is there a fix for this? Thank you!

    As above, I have windows 8, a new computer and updated firefox to the most recent version with the new computer. I have tried the online fixes suggested including changing the plugin to 'always activate' and going into config:about and changing the plugins.load_appdir_plugins to true but neither of those have made a difference. I also just put citrix on 2 months ago, so believe this should be the latest version. Works fine on internet explorer. Any ideas? Thanks!
