Impossible to edit PDF files now
I have Acrobat 5 and 9.4 on my machine. My work includes the duty to reframe and change PDF files on external resources. Lately, my problem is I can't open all PDFs with 5 where are all my editing tools. What do I need to get the files edit 9?
I have Reader 9 on some machines with AA5 because AA5 cannot read a large number of recent files. If you need to change them, you're out of luck. There is a roundabout way is not that great and many wouldn't recommend it, but you can open the file in Reader 9 and then print the Acrobat Distiller printer. Don't know how this will work, but it might do the job. I'm also not what else you might lose. Tabs and such other markup will be effectively lost.

Hi imad,.
We have a work around for this problem. I hope that it will work in your scenario.
Print the PDF using "Adobe PDF". Edit this new PDF instead of the original one.
Steps to follow:
1. go to file-> Print. (Ctrl + P)
2. Select 'Adobe PDF' as the printer.
3. click on print. Save in any desired location when prompted.
4. open the new PDF.
5 edit.
Let me know if this helps.

"Choose" switch to "and correct the problem. The other is "content preparation courses. "Please wait while the document is being prepared for" and displays a progress bar. One last question, I noticed it is adobe hangs quite frequently and shows "not responding". I had Adobe Acrobat X Pro for several years, and these have not always taken place only months.

How to edit pdf file (in indesign) without having to re-export then and redo all the fields of the form and formatting?
Edit PDF files in InDesign is not a good idea. If the file was originally exported ID, then change the original and then create a new PDF file.
Open an old, and then use the command replace Pages to insert the new pages on the 'old'. The fields that you have already created will remain in place when you do this.

I can't seem to edit PDF files in Adobe Acrobat, as it says the files are protected and I need to enter a password of Permissions?
If the files have a permissions password, you must know it and delete security, before you can edit the files. That is right.

I bought a pack of Acrobat 89.99 but cannot find a way to edit PDF files, which is the reason why I made the purchase. How can I change with this software?
Hi peggyb50904266,
I'm sorry for the confusion: Adobe PDF allows you to create and combine PDF files, but not change them. To do this, you must use Acrobat. If you wish, we can move your Pack PDF subscription for a Standard or Acrobat Pro subscription.
Best,
Sara
