Can I create a PDF template (or other file) in InDesign, my client can update images?

I designed a brochure for a client, and they would like to know if I can do a version where they will be able to Exchange pictures (and text) be updated for future projects.

It's perfectly fine for me, as I take on other clients and is not able to do for them in the future. I also know how to create the text in this way, as I can implement each header and body as a separate 'form' that they can fill with reader and save... However, I don't know how it is possible to change/replace the images without having something like Acrobat.

Is it possible to create an interactive environment, they can 'download' image, and then save the PDF file? They are a small company, so I would rather not say they have to buy additional software. I also want to make it as easy for them as possible.

I am also aware, however, that even if a picture can be incorporated, a PDF file may not be able to resize an image to fit within such a framework. I can, however, write an exe file that will resize the images for them if necessary. I don't know how to get them in the PDF...

A model like this would be probably simple HTML, but unfortunately, the brochure design is beyond my ability to reproduce in Dreamweaver, and I also assume that printing an HTML document would be a nightmare for the printing industry lol.

Thanks for any help or answers, they are much appriciated

You can use the same method of forms for images, but it only gives you no control over postioning in the framework or the scale/crop update.

The key here is really that this kind of editing must be done in the ID, and if they want to they should probably invest in a license, even if it's just a subscription to the month, when they need it.

    If you create a PDF file from an image, it is always a picture, and you cannot change it.

    If the image contains text, then you need to perform the text recognition (OCR) before you can actually change the text.  Acrobat can do that.

  • Create a PDF template to use import Excel data

    I created a 'cover' page in Acrobat. I want this to be a template where I can import Excel data and insert my signature before sending it to our customers. It is a management report.

  • Create a PDF from Word 2010 file is not correctly convert pictures and text boxes

    I have 11 Acrobat and my co-workers with 9 and 10 can correctly convert Word documents with images and text boxes, but v.11 cut the text and is not convert the images correctly.

    Hey Luke,

    You may need to check with other files in Word also to analyze whether the problem is with word or Acrobat.

    Open a word document, add images, then try to convert it to PDF using the Adobe PDF printer as PDFMaker option well.

    Let me know what happens.

    In addition, to make Adobe PDF as default printer and check.

    You could even go in PDFMaker preferences and uncheck the option "enable accessibility and reflow with tagged Adobe PDF" on the tab "settings".

    If that don't work, then please share the file with me by e-mail (email ID sent via private message) so that I can check my end.

  • I created a pdf template in Illustrator. Since Acrobat Pro, need to return to the model

    Hello.  I'm new to this forum.  Here's my question;  I designed a form in Illustrator.  It's a piece of evidence Art to approve Screenprinted t-shirts.  Pretty basic.  Once completed, I opened in my Acrobat 9 Pro and let the program do its thing and create text fields.  He did a great job.  I've added and modified fields.  A week ago, I tried to change something in the basic form that I created in Illustrator.  I remember right click and see something "change model".  When I clicked it, the open model in Illustrator, where I was able to change it.  From there, I closed the Illustrator of the form and return version in Acrobat, the changes were there.  This is the problem... I don't remember how I did it.  I need to make other changes to the form (model) and for the life of me, I don't know how to get the form to open in Illustrator.  I literally opened each tab and right click anywhere on the page.  No luck.  Please help me find my way back to the editable shape in Illustrator in Acrobat.  Thank you 1 million.

    In Acrobat 9, you would first select the object editing, right-click on the page and select "change the subject". But this isn't the best way to do it. Should rather edit the original source document in Illustrator, generate a new PDF and in Acrobat, replace the old pages with the new ones. Any fields, links, bookmarks, code, etc. that you added will be retained.

  • How to create the PDF template

    Hello.  I have Adobe Pro and I need to change an art file that I created in Photoshop (which I turned to PDF) so that customers can enter the page and type in their own information and add a picture.  Is this possible?  I can't find how to do this anywhere.

    (it's a marketing brochure and customers have different 'contact information' and logo of the company that they're different) so I have to do so they can add their own logo and text on my art folder.

    Thanks for your help!

    Unfortunately, the method that is available with Acrobat is no longer works with the drive, but I remain optimistic that adobe can restore a day.

    Acrobat Pro is shipped with LiveCycle Designer, which allows you to create another type (XFA) of the PDF form that supports an image field. A the image field allows the user to select an image (JPEG, GIF, TIFF, PNG) to display.

  • VDDK v1.2 is unable to create the disc on the other file system

    I work on one file system other than NTFS for Windows and should be able to create a virtual drive it.

    Using the new v1.2 VDDK, I try the following command:

    VMware-vdiskmanager - c - a free - 0 TS 70 GB
    .pdvfs\myserver\2\CarlData\CarlData.VMDK

    It fails with the error:

    Unable to create the disc: the file is too large for the filesystem (0xc00000015).

    With the help of the utility even 1.1 VDDK works very well.

    If I map the 'share' to a drive letter, the next command in the V1.2 works too well:

    VMware-vdiskmanager - c - a free - 0 TS 70 GB Q:\2\CarlData\CarlData.vmdk

    I know from painful experience last year that the error "the file is too big" is pretty generic, and generally means vixdisklib think that the target file system is not NTFS.  I changed my driver year last to convince vixdisklib v1.1 it was OK to create a large virtual drive here.  "I also remember that the library is the distinction between a target name starting by".
    "compared to the other with a drive letter.  "Is there something I can do to make the v1.2 to accept the"
    .pdvfs' form of file name?

    I see a sensitive case named streams, acl persistent search for support as defining NTFS for this audit. Can you confirm if you have these?

    Thank you

  • Advantages and disadvantages of creating flash_recovery_area in NFS while other files in ASM

    In my previous implementations of RAC, I used some ASM disk groups
    for Oracle and flash_recovery_area database files. This option has worked
    Well for me, it's just sometimes painful back up RMAN sustained files
    ASM disk for bands or a separate storage groups. I'm sure a lot of people
    have a similar experience as I did.

    To overcome the challenges of backup, I would try something different for this
    time (I'm sure others probably have already done this). It is a node two 11.1.0.7
    RAC on AIX 6.1. As usual, I use ASM for files of data Oracle, controlfiles and redo
    log files; and use NFS from a NAS to flash_recovery_area. Assuming that NFS
    similar availability as the ASM, someone sees no problem to do?

    You input is highly appreciated.

    Be sure to choose NFS mount options...

  • Cannot create a PDF file after the upgrades: Adobe 9.2 and Mac OS 10.6.2

    After the upgrade to Adobe Professional 9.2 and Mac 10.6.2 I lost the ability to create PDF files.

    The printer Adobe (display says that the printer is v. 9.0) indicates the status of the job as "Mistake" and has the following message; "You must install the software to use this printer.

    I get errors when I try to create a PDF from a Web page.

    I get the following error when I try to create a pdf from a word file: "Acrobat cannot open 'AAA.docx' because it is not a type of supported file or because the file has been damaged (for example, it was sent as an attachment to e-mail and has not been correctly decoded).

    To create an Adobe PDF document, go to the source application. Then print the document in Adobe PDF format".

    (I can create a PDF from jpg files... but I never really have a need to do this...)

    I uninstalled Adobe Professional by using the uninstall program (then emptied the trash and restart), then reinstalled Adobe Professional from disk (and restarted).  After the reinstallation, I always get the same problems, even if I get no error message until Adobe Professional updates from 9.0 to 9.2.  Before the upgrade Adobe, v9.0 attempts to print to pdf just act as the pdf is created (no error message), but I do not get a backup fast, nor is a new pdf no matter where the document is located.

    Help, please!

  • I created a PDF form with several drop downs, all with the same drop-down values. When I select a value of 1 in the drop-down list fields, it breeds in all others - which I don't want. How can I fix?

    I created a PDF form with several drop downs, all with the same drop-down values. When I select a value of 1 in the drop-down list fields, it breeds in all others - which I don't want. Can I fix?

    I am fairly new to this, but I think it has to do with the way you have drop them downs named. Copy you a then keep stick in each area? If so, that's the problem. You must rename each with a different number: Dropdown1, Dropdown2, etc. I think this might solve the problem.

  • How can I create my own template pages, to print a 4-page newsletter on both sides of the tabloid-size paper?

    How can I create my own template pages, to print a 4-page newsletter, using both sides of the tabloid-size paper?

    The finished newsletter should be a folded booklet: a piece of 11 x 17 paper folded to form a 8.5x11 "booklet". This clearly means pages 1 and 4 should be printed on one side of the tabloid sheet and pages 2 & 3 on the other.

    I can't find such a model in the Pages.

    There is no such a model, so you'll have to make your own, using a spread on presentation of your newsletter.

    Use shapes, images and text boxes to position available for your model.

    You didn't say what version of Pages that you are using but if it's Pages 5.x, it has no text boxes related so this will make it difficult and it's going to be a lot of manual work.

  • Automatically create color PDF can not deposit Officejet Pro 8600 Plus

    I have an Officejet Pro 8600 Plus and an Apple OSX Yosemite iMac running. I installed the full software from the HP support site, and in particular the analysis of the HP is version 4.4.1 (21).

    I want to create a color PDF directly in a file on my computer to the scanner.

    If I select Save as PDF, I get a b & w image in a file that is automatically created.

    If I select print daily scan opens in HP Scan and I am able to create an image in color, but with additional steps.

    I looked at other similar topics in 2012 and 2013 and saw advice to change the mode in HP utility/Scan to computer/change Scan tasks/editing, but there is no option of color Mode.

    Finally, I figured this out. It CAN be done.

    Go to HP utility/Scan of the computer.

    Make sure that enable Scan to computer is checked.

    Select Edit analysis jobs

    Select Save as PDF/change

    In the presets drop-down, select generalist

    In the section move the items from the Finder, you can also specify the folder where the scans will be saved.

    Saved color, managed directly from the printer scans on my iMac. Sweet!
