I saved a PDF doc in adobe and then added text to the form. But every time I try an email it it only

I saved a PDF doc in adobe and then added text to the form. But every time I try an email it it only sends the original form without text. Once I've changed a doc in Adobe, how can I save it so that I'm able to use it with added text and notes? Also, I'm using a new iPad.

If you are using those apps or websites, they are likely viewing the PDF using iOS' built in PDF previewing, which will not show annotations and markup to the PDF. We have informed Apple of this issue, but do not have any insight into whether or when they will fix it.
Regarding the qustion about importing pictures, Adobe Reader does not provide any capabilities to import pictures into a PDF. To do this, you'll need to use Acrobat, available on your desktop computer.

Mac: no PDFMaker, so printing from Word to PDF has inactive links

I have written a fabulous document in Microsoft Word, which has paragraph numbering, and many ‘Insert > Cross-reference…’ links to paragraphs. And it contains lots of ‘Insert > Hyperlink…’ links to external documents. It’s fabulous.
If I saved this to PDF using a Windows machine, those links would work in the PDF. Clicking on a cross-reference would jump there; clicking on an external link would command the default browser to do the obvious thing. Hurray!
But on the Mac, the external links aren’t there. Not if I do “Save as PDF…”, nor if I do it via Adobe Acrobat XI with “Save as Adobe PDF”.
If the link text is there “http://…” then the PDF reader guesses it is a link, and it works. But if ordinary words have been made into a link, it is formatted as a link but is inactive.
Please, how can Adobe be persuaded to release PDFMaker for the Mac? Or otherwise make this work? (Adobe Acrobat XI: Help and tutorials (September 2013), on page 46: “PDFMaker is not available for Mac OS. However, you can still create PDFs from many business applications using the File > Print command. In the Print dialog box, choose Save AsAdobe PDF from the PDF menu.”)
FYI, I also asked this question on the Microsoft side, but other than discovering that PDFMaker would solve my problem if it existed for the Mac, that didn’t help.
Versions:
Mac: OS X Mavericks 10.9.5
Word: Word for Mac 2011 Version 14.4.3 (140616)
Adobe Acrobat XI: 11.0.09

Actually PDF Maker has never been available on the MAC as I understand it. At Buying guide | Adobe Acrobat XI Pro it is indicated that PDF Maker is available on on Windows (has a little dagger that indicates this and is probably hard to catch). I can understand that it may be related to the way that OFFICE is written for the MAC. One of the members drops by to help folks with MAC issues like this at times. He apparently has some work-arounds. If the MS PDF plugin will create the links on the MAC, then an alternative is to print the document to an temp file and create the base file with the plugin, then use replace pages to get the printed version included, or just live with the MS produced version. I don't remember if the MS plugin creates the bookmarks and such.

Converting Word to PDF-don't link web addresses

I'm trying to convert a word doc to a pdf using Acrobat XI Standard. The word doc has a hyperlink in one spot and a web address typed out in another spot. The goal I'm looking for is to have the hyperlink carry over into the pdf, and the typed out web address to be non-clickable. The hyperlink does carry over, but the typed out web address is also hyperlinking, but without the hyperlink box. How do I get the pdf to not link the typed out web address? There is no hyperlink box to delete.
Thanks!

That's a setting of the application. You can disable it under Edit - Preferences - General - Create links from URLs.

Word document pdf printing with vertical and horizontal pages

I have a Word document that has both vertical and horizontal formatted pages. When I print to PDF, the I get a new pdf file whenever a page orientation change is found. pages 1 to 7 are vertical, 8 to 12 are horizontal and 13 to 20 are vertical again. If I print to a file named "out_to_PDF" I get 3 files named "out_to_PDF", "out_to_PDF2" and "out_to_PDF3", the first one with pages 1 to 7, the second one with pages 8 to 12 and the third one with the remaining pages. Is there a way to get only one file with all the pages?
I know I can merge the files later. This file with 20 pages is no problem. I have several 70+ page docs, with multiple changes between horizontal and vertical that will result in 20 or more separate pdf files.
Any pointers?

Word renders print jobs that change the orientation as separate print jobs. So, each print job becomes its own PDF.
You can make an Automator workflow to combine PDFs. I’m not sure how it decides the order it combines them, so you’d have to experiment.
This is built as an Application where you’d drop all of the PDFs onto the App icon and it will open the combined PDF where you can edit, name, and save.

How can type a word on an image in Ps and change the text box background

How can I type a word on an Image in Ps and change the background of the text box

Photoshop doesnt have an ability to fill a text box so you will have to create a layer underneath the text layer. A shape layer work work well. That can be filled and stroked quite easily with editability.

How to remove the words such as the, is , are, and or from text file

my problem is
i want to make an application to do that
eceives a test file from the user, this file contains a list of words , the program must do the following
1- Remove the words such as the, is , are, and or
2- Count the number of occurrences of each word
3- Display a two column message, the first column contains a word and the second column contains the number of repetitions of this word
i make number 2 and 3 how can i do number 1

I would accumulate word frequency in a Map<String, Integer> -- is that what you are doing? But before processing a word I would check to see if it is contained in a Set<String> of common words. In which case further processing of the word is not required.

Combine OCR pdfs into one file and keep OCR text

I posted a few weeks ago, but found out today that I misunderstood the problem. We got back our files from the vendor digitized as individual pdfs that have already been OCRed. When we try to combine the individual pages into issues (these are newspapers), the OCR text is lost. We're using Acrobat 8 and 9 Professional.
Thanks!

Hi
     I tried this with A8 and A9 but could not replicate the issue as mentioned by you. Here is what I did:
     1. OCR two single page scanned PDFs.
     2. Combine the two single page OCRed PDFs into one PDF.
     3. Check if the text is still there.
     and I found that the text was retained.
     How were the PDFs OCRed in your case? Were these PDFs OCRed using Acrobat or some other tool?

How do I export from PDF to Word when PDF has both portrait and landscape pages in it?

Most of the pdf is in portrait but a few are in landscape in the middle of the document and it totally screws up the rest of the document. Help! AND the portrait page size is 8.27 x 11/69.

Looks like you have A4 pages. I would copy the PDF and then rotate the landscape pages (or portrait) individually (use the tools, not the view rotation) and then do the save to DOC or DOCX. That might do what you want. I would have expected it to notice the orientation, but I guess not. You did not mention the version of Acrobat. If you have not done the updates, you may want to do those first. Your issue may have been address with the updates.

Hotspots, Slices, and Pop-Up Text

Hello,
I have the Macromedia Studio MX 2004 product, including
Dreamweaver, Fireworks, Flash, and Freehand. I'd like to know the
simplest way and tool to use (Fireworks? Flash? Dreamweaver?) to
create what I call a pop-up bubble (or box) with a textual
description inside when the user (ideally) mouses over (or not so
ideally..'clicks on') a part of an illustration or mouses over
other text (for example, textual captions). Please do a 'google' on
'Product Demos' and click on the 'Blackberry' link. You'll see a
bunch of thumbnails of their products...click on any product.
You'll immediately get a Flash 8 slide presentation show....but
click on the 'interactive' button below (lower far right) and
you'll see what I'm talking about with the text pop-ups...the
creator chose to have the viewer mouse over text to get these...I'd
also like to be able to mouse over parts/sectors of a graphic....
I look forward to hearing from one and all.
Much thanks!

That was all done on Flash.

How do I take a pdf flyer after conversion and replace the text?

I downloaded the acrobat program that will convert a pdf file into a Word document. Now that I am there how do I replace text on this flyer to my own?

Once you have converted the original PDF file into a Word document, you'll need to open the document in Microsoft Word to do the editing.

Send word or pdf document as HTML email

Hello all,
we have word documents (on a local file) that we want to send via SAP as HTML email, i.e. we need the content of the word document in the email body. The documents also contain images. With the class cl_bcs I can send mails including attachments and also pure HTML but I don't know how to convert the word or pdf document into HTML and how to process it to get the images in the correct way. Is there perhaps a more direct way to achieve the goal to mail the word documents? Is there anybody who can help?
Thank you very much and best regards
Frank

First, as you guessed, most (all?) mail clients don't display "complex" documents (doc, xls, pdf, etc.) inside a mail, they are always provided as attachments. Only simple documents like images can be directly displayed.
SAP's job is not to convert from a format to another, especially .DOC and .PDF formats, which are rather complex.
You'd better look at specialized third-party softwares. Note that SAP has a connection tool called BC-XDC (eXternal Document Converter) which is used to connect these third-party softwares to SAP. You may look at the certified softwares using this connection tool.
Notes: if the .DOC and .PDF documents are generated by one of your programs, prefer to modify them to generate the documents in another format (HTML) instead of converting them. I can't say much as I don't know your exact scenario.
There is also SO_RTF_TO_HTM (and CONVERT_TEXT maybe) function module, but I wouldn't expect much of it.

Powerpoint (PPT) to PDF - Loss of Resolution and formatting

Currently using:
Powerpoint Mac 2011 14.4.7
Powerpoint for Mac Office 365 (2 computers here)
We currently have a PPT file of about 75 MB.
We would like to take the PPT file and make it into a PDF.
When we do so, via "save as PDF" or an online tool such as Small PDF, we lose resolution and in some cases formatting.
Is there a solution for this?
Meaning:
Firstly a way to save our PPT file as a PDF without sacrificing quality.
Secondly a way to then minimize the file size to less than 5MB so we can comfortably send it through email.
I would be happy to share the file upon request.
Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Josh

I agree with kirbot -- Apple includes nice templates that are obviously meant for professional printing in reasonably large quantities. Regardless, there's no good reason I can think of why Pages' PDFs are not truly WYSIWYG in their output. That shadows and other things are not exported as part of the PDF is a really dumb idea on Apple's part.
Just ran into this issue myself and had to ditch all the drop shadows in my brochure in order for the files to work with my online printer.
