Convert block of text to PDF with Acrobat

Hello. When to convert a text file to PDF with Acrobat X Pro the spacing of the characters in the resulting file is incorrect.  The columns of figures that line up correctly in the text file, do not properly align in the PDF file.  I adjust the conversion settings in the CREATE PDF FROM WEB PAGE THE box and I chose a fixed-width font.   If I use Adobe PDF Converter (printer driver), the result is perfect.  If I open the text file with Microsoft Word and then convert it to PDF with PDFMaker, it is also perfect. I want to use Acrobat so that I can bulk convert my files 300 text in PDF format.   Can you please help as I have tried everything?  Thank you.  Paul Pontikis (Deakin University)

How are the files PDF, text is a set of text-as-graphics. Individual graphs can be lines, words or even simple letters. So there aren't really spaces at all in many files, just the text is a little further away.

Clearly Acrobat calculates wrong - I think as I said, this looks like a rounding error.

There nothing like what you are looking for - once the PDF file is made, the locations are fixed.

    Hi higi97,

    How are you connected to the internet? You're behind a corporate firewall particularly safe? You're on Mac or Windows? You have an anti-malware software running on your computer which can prevent applications other than your browser to connect to internet?

    You can try the steps below:

    1. close the application of creative cloud.

    2. navigate to the OOBE folder.

    Windows: [system drive]: \Users\ [user name] \AppData\Local\Adobe\OOBE

    Mac OS: /Users/ [user name] / folder/Library/Application Support / Adobe / OOBE

    3. delete the opm.db file.

    4. launch creative cloud.

    Let us know if this helps,

    Kind regards

  • Import data from Excel in PDF with Acrobat Pro XI - is it possible? How?

    I need to be able to create a pdf file where certain information can be merged to an Excel spreadsheet in the pdf file so that our land use specialists can use tablets to fill the field. I also need to be able to create a field where the user can join or import a jpg file. Is it possible to do this with Acrobat Pro XI? Another program is necessary. I need to know the answers to my questions by January 28, 2016.

    Hi shannonr80675036,

    Yes, but you there are two things you need to do in Excel for this to work:

    Columns must be named the same as the field names in the PDF form. The names that you use in your PDF form, or you must change the names of fields in the PDF form so that they correspond to the column names in Excel, you can either match. In this example, I took the first approach and used the field names as my column headings:

    When you export your data to Excel file, you must select the "Tab Delimited Text" format. It is one of the export options in Excel (and other spread sheet applications) which is available when you select file > save as:

    Once you have your tabs-delimited text file, open your PDF form, and then select Tools > forms > more form Options and click Import:

    In the file dialog box, select this option to import a text file, browse to your exported text file and select it. In the next screen, you can then choose what import record, you can import only one record at a time:

    This will complete the PDF form with the selected values:

    That, for each record you have in your Excel file and save the PDF file under a new name.

  • Why Firefox tries to open the PDF with Acrobat 8 when I set properties using Reader 9.1?

    If I click on a link in a PDF file from Firefox 3.6.10 he's trying to open it with Acrobat 8 and breaks down, while if I double-click on a folder it opens properly with Reader 9.1

    If I try to open with Acrobat 8 for the record, he does not either, but why Firefox does not use the default program?

    Go to tools | Options | Applications. The first 4 entries focus on Adobe. Make sure that the association is your version 9.1. If this is not the case, click on the association that shows. You will get a triangle pointing downwards to the right. Click it, and then check if 9.1 is displayed. If so, select it. Do the same for the other elements of Adobe.

    You can also check the "Folder Options" in the control panel. In the tab "File Types", you will find all file extensions and the programs with which they are associated. Scroll to the PDF extension and make sure that it is associated with a "Document of Adobe Acrobat. If this is not the case, click the < button > and find adobe in the programs list.

    Just to let you know, Adobe Reader is now up to version 9.4. You can go to the Adobe website to download the latest version.

  • How to create a pdf with Acrobat Pro 7 which can be edited/saved by user

    Found the link to this and he lost!  Now, I'm wasting time trying to figure it out yet - 3 hours!  The PDF with fields was created with Acrobat.  When I tested with Adobe Reader, it will not allow the user to save the file - fill and print ONLY.  Friday, I was able to find a workaround, but now I forgot.  Any help is appreciated.  Thank you!

    Hi Tiggerc,

    If you have Acrobat Pro 7 or higher, you can add reader allowing rights to the PDF document that will allow the user with the Reader Adobe free to fill out and save the form.

    You can find it in the menu advanced in Acrobat 7 with similar wording to "Expand in Adobe Reader" or "Enable usage rights in Adobe Reader".  After selecting this menu option just follow the guests of the dialog box.

    Let me know if you have any questions

    Kind regards

  • After the new installation unable to print to PDF with Acrobat 8 Pro

    I recently had to do a clean install on my desktop computer.  Is it possible that I can print to PDF with my Adobe Acrobat Pro 8, which was working fine before the clean install.  I am aware that Adobe supports this version is no longer, but isn't this program, able to run without updating?  You want to print the pdf files from Web sites and Microsoft office.  Spin operating system Windows 7 Ultimate.

    Hi Hi liseb25468237,.

    Ah, I see! This isn't a format supported for conversion. But you can 'print' your Word Perfect for PostScript files and then download the PostScript files for conversion to PDF. Please see this document for instructions: PostScript files create | Pack PDF | Windows

    (I noticed that the document refers to the CreatePDF Desktop tool at the bottom - this tool has since taken his retirement.) "But the instructions at the top of the document are still valid).

  • Get bookmark evil levels when converting Word to PDF with Acrobat 7.0

    I am using MS Word 2003, Windows XP and Adobe Acrobat 7.0.

    When you convert a DOC to PDF, all the features are perfect except bookmarks are located at the level of evil, that is, the first chapter 'Introduction' is the first level, that is desired; but the second chapter and later versions will be placed as the subelements of the first. It is a serious problem for me because I need a very precise conversion.

    P.S. I upgraded the convertion of properly before bookmarks in the conversion.

    So I wonder If there is a solution of parameters of Word or Acrobat.

    I use Acrobat 7 because the versions(8.0 etc.) later has the running header problem. If 7.0 is also problematic. I don't know what version can do a perfect conversion.

    I agree with Lori, it seems that you do not use bookmarks in WORD correctly I read his post. I also noticed that you show 7.0. These early versions often have bugs, and you need to update to the latest version of 7, currently 7.1.4. I would say the same update for AA8 namely 8.3.1.

    Hello comrades,.

    Some skins display a home page, but the home page only text/video/images allows to appear on it, but not links to other pages for example.

    Am I missing something?
