Editing Vector Objects in PDF

[zulbat@adobeforums.com]

When I use the Touch-up Object tool to select a vector element in a PDF and right click to Edit Object the object opens in Illustrator. This is the program I have set in preferences to edit vector objects. The issue I have is when I edit and save the object it shows up in the PDF shifted from its original position (offset to the upper left). How can I get the object to update in the PDF without shifting position?

This is a known error. I believe it was correct if you upgrade to the
latest version of Acrobat 8 and Illustrator.

Using Acrobat 8.1.2 Professional and Illustrator 13.0.2, are these NOT the current versions? So glad Apple came out with the OS patch for the Photoshop server glitch.

Yes and No. You have the most up-to-date version of Acrobat 8.1 and
Illustrator, so the bug should have been fixed. I cannot say why it is
not working for you. Of course, the latest version of Acrobat is 9.0,
but I don't think you need to upgrade for the fix. Maybe someone can
chime in. What happens if you create a new file in Illy and create a
pdf, does the problem still happen?

I seem to remember this problem going away after about 8 months of the
CS3 release - Illustrator and Photoshop updates sorted things ...

Wow, I just don't get it then. I'm as current as current can be, I must say. When I get some time I test a bit more and see if I can come up with anything.
