Editing .pdf documents

[Liz_Speake@adobeforums.com]

Can I edit a .pdf document? I have Adobe Acrobat 6.0 professional. I hoped I would be able to do that. If so, how do I do it?

Can you be more specific? What type of editing are you trying to do??
Change form fields? Change text labels? Change images?? All of this is
possible in the professional version of Acrobat.

What kind of editing? Please be very specific, because the answer
varies all the way from "easy" to "impossible" with shades in between.

Can I edit a .pdf Document? With the old Adobe I could click on the word and change it. Or I could pull a word out of a corner so you can read all of it. Now with Adobe 6.0 I cannot figure out how to do this without shifting all of the words. How do I do this???

Thanks,
STef

try going to tools > advanced editing and choosing touch up text tool, you will be able to edit text if the document has been ocr'ed(Means you should be able to highlight the text, and the pdf is not just an image) If you want to add text you can try the text field tool in tools > advanced editing > forms > text field

How do I pull the words from the corner (if It is partially hidden) so you can see the entire word? Also, in the old Adobe the arrow would allow you to move a word (just grab and move) Can you do this with the 6.0?

THanks,
Stef

hmmm, try using the touch up object tool

Used to be able to select line tool and have options to change color and add arrows to the ends. Now, once you draw a line,which seems to have a mind of its own-How do you reselect it? How do you delete it? How do you change thickness, color, and have an arrow head? How can you get it to draw where you want it to draw without it snapping away from the intended place? I hate this new line tool!

Used to be able to use type tool and was able to change the color, font, size, and style. How do you do that now?

Hi

I want to copy and paste using the touchup text toll, but my pasted
text appears as questions marks. Any ideas why?

Is the Touch-up Object tool available in the Adobe Professional 6.0?
Thanks

In Adobe Acrobat 6 Professional, yes, the TouchUp Object Tool is available.
