What types of pdf files can be modified?

I have a pdf file created in some design software, no word.  Can I still change it?  Do I need Acrobat Pro or can I use Acrobat Standard?

It is not really "kinds" of PDF in a simple way. Assuming that you are talking about text, a PDF file can contain any combination of

* text is just an image; not editable, but you can sometimes use the OCR, not always

content which is the text, but pell-mell, impossible to change, copy or search

* text this is good text, but you do not have the police so can't change it

* text is the text proper, but for some reason any police you have does not match and you can not change this

* appropriate text and you can change it with the police that you own.

But then the provision of texts and other elements determines if you can change. Any type of modification that does not fit in one line (like changing a phone number) is many ask.

Acrobat Standard is not worse than Acrobat Pro for editing text.

  • Save a PDF file cannot be modified, losing the file HAVE changed.

    It's great that illustrator can edit PDF files and it's great that Illustrator can record on a non editable PDF. But why, for the love of sanity, I would like to save a PDF file cannot be modified, but then have the original file, currently open HAVE disappear leaving only this little pointless PDF file? I STILL want the file HAVE to remain the main current job file original. But it doesn't work.

    Or if, for some reason I can't understand, this behavior is necessary, and right, then at least it should show unequivocally that I am to modify a PDF file cannot be modified and strongly suggest to me that I might want to save an editable PDF or HAVE a file, or even do it automatically until I close the file (or Illustrator crashes as it is wont to do).

    I'm working on a file HAVE and I need to save a small file of WIP not editable for the customer display. I go to file - save as-> PDF / smaller file size / uncheck "preserve Illustrator editing capabilities". I send the PDF file to the client and continue to work and save, assuming that I'm working on the original. The file looks and behaves exactly as it did until I taped that, intuitively, I guess that is the file HAVE same, original, with the PDF file in a copy. However, when I come back the next morning, after having closed the file, only the low resolution not editable PDF file remains. The file doesn't help, and I have to redo all the work all the way back to the last time, I saved the file I saved the PDF.

    Much trouble, loss of hair, the time wasted, face Palm trees, etc.

    The thing is, I now /know/ does and I'm going out of my way to avoid it happening, but in the race at the end of the work and send commands to the client and manage multiple versions of files, it still happens. Now clearly this is my fault, but heck, Illustrator could behave much more usefully in this regard!

    Well, I must be missing something, I guess.

    I asked how "save a copy...". "is the way lasts, and you replied that you were referring to not using Save a Copy... So I re - submit that by using Save a Copy is the solution to your original problem.

    • Work in Illustrator; number of objects; several layers, live effects, etc.
    • Want a copy of WIP for the customer as you have described originally...
    • Choose file > save a copy... Format is not question could make no editable PDF, raster format, whatever...
    • Continue to work in Illustrator... under a State record which is absolutely no different than if I had never done the Save a Copy... There is no "silent dump' edit-ability or any such similar event. If I record, I save it HAVE original, or a new if the State was not saved.
  • Currently, I have Acrobat XI, but am ready to upgrade if my problem can be solved. I want to be able to say that a PDF file can be printed only ONCE. Is this possible.

    Currently, I have Acrobat XI, but am ready to upgrade if my problem can be solved. I want to be able to say that a PDF file can be printed only ONCE.

    I create and sell books. Asked me to create and sell PDFs of books. While it is easy, if I sell a PDF, there is nothing which could prevent the company to send the PDF autour and everyone by printing.

    So, I'm looking for a solution to this problem.

    Hoping that there is a solution.

    The upgrade will not help. No version of Acrobat can do that.

    The only way this is possible (and I'm still not 100% sure on this subject) is using DRM technology, which is very expensive.

  • What type of reporting, we can do on CDO and is it mandatory to have all records in CDO to map with contacts to appear in reports?

    Hello

    What type of reporting, we can do on CDO and is it mandatory to have all records in CDO to map with contacts to appear in reports?

    Any ideas?

    Thanks in advance

    Hello

    It is perhaps not necessary to map contacts but in case you need activity report too, so it must be mapped.

    To implement a reporting for the CDO, by clicking here.

    After you click here, you will get an option to add several LCO for reporting. And you can get the report here. After the addition of CDO to report, it takes 10 minutes to reflect changes in insight.

  • SQL convert image data [Coldfusion 10] type to pdf file

    Data of type image in my database table. How to save the data as a pdf file. The data in the table are already pdf type 0x151C240002000000080008001400... I tried select boxid, datapdf records where datapdf is not null FileWrite ("data.pdf", records.datapdf [1]); He did save the file as a pdf, but as soon as the file is says "it is not a type of file supported or because the file has been damaged".

    Maybe, maybe not.  Access unfortunately has a way of screwing of the binary (blob) data that is stored in it by adding a wrapper around the data.  I ran across this before, but I don't remember the details of what was going on - I think he had something to do with OLE objects compared to the data of the actual image (photos JPG) file.  I ended up needing to have the contractor who put data go back and reinsert the images correctly.

    In my case, some of the jpg files have been loaded correctly (and migrate to SQL Server correctly), but others are not.  You may need to use to open the file in Access and save the images out of files, then by running a separate process to load the images in your database system (you didn't specify that you are using).

  • Open a new File() by Script and set the Type of PDF file fails...

    Hi all

    I created a script to download PDFs from a server and store them in an Indesign Document. Everything works fine except Indesign doesn't not recocnize file Type when you try to place the pdf file and get an error that the downloaded PDF file cannot be due to the filter of the unknown.

    This is because the file type is apparently set to TEXT (creator is CARO) event if I write the file with

    myFile.open ('w', 'PDF', "CARO");

    No idea how

    -get Indesign all the file type of a file newly generated in PDF format

    or

    -Change the Type of file later

    or

    -tell Indesign what filter to use when you place this file?

    Thanks for your help

    BTW: Indesign CS5 (7.0.4), OS X 10.6.8

    UH... but you might be better off placing both '\0\0\0\0' and leave the treatment kick file extension.

  • In what program this PDF file created from?

    Hello

    I hope someone can clue me on how this PDF file has been done where I'm guessing that if you regularly Adobe Acrobat reader you can edit/interact with the file. I really love to know if there is a tutorial that can teach me how to create the blank square text for changes by others field. Here is the link

    http://www.sec.gov/about/forms/formd.PDF

    I thought that the document could have been done in Adobe InDesign or even Microsoft Word, but I doubt it. And I think there could be some XML implies that I have never learn how or know what it is.

    There are a number of programs that can create a PDF form. Adobe's Acrobat, LiveCycle, LiveCycle Designer, InDesign. Third-party providers inlcude Open Office Org and Nitro PDF. It is even possible to add form fields to a PS file and let distill them to create the shape. You can watch the Acrobat user community tutorials and seminars on creating forms.
