I had tried to copy the whole document(which is in pdf format) to notepad and word but now I want to move at some specific page of document let say 3 and I want to store the content only of that page to the clipboard. Is there any way to do that?
Till all I know is how to store the whole document in the clipboard.
program acrord32
keyboard ⋘ALT⋙⋘DOWN⋙⋘3⋙
keyboard ⋘CTRL+A⋙⋘CTRL+C⋙
♥doc1 = ♥clipboard
Using keyboard CTRL+A in Adobe Acrobat always select ALL text in WHOLE ALL pages.
But there are other options.
This option is available in NOT FREE version in example "Acrobat Standard DC" or "Acrobat Pro DC". Unfortunatelly these versions are paid applications. In these version has function named "Extract pages" and you can specify that each page as separate file. After extraction you have any file with once page and you can using CTR+A :)
But we have alternative option by using google chrome. Open PDF file in google chrome and send file to print with change printer as "Save as PDF". There you can specify page as new file PDF.

The below is the line of code I'm using it currently which converts ppt to pdf, however I want to protect pdf , Is there any possibility
PowerPointapp.ActivePresentation.SaveAs path & pdffileNm & ".pdf", 32
This is not possible with the default vba functions available!
See this, not tested by me, example of using an external library to save pdf with password in the past.
Protecting a PDF is not permanent, once the file is opened (using the users decryption key provided by handing over the password), the contents are available to the new owner to add comment or fill forms or otherwise modify by print or text edit or remove watermarks.
Adobe reader will use different parts of those keys to reduce user writes, but no other editor has to.
Browsers need to edit PDF in exactly the same way so my Firefox pdf reader allows me to correct / change web page content or the embedded pdf contents, exactly the same as any other browser or pdf viewer or editor can. The only protected PDF is an unpublished one.
I am trying to print a section of an existing pdf to a new pdf. The original is searchable and selectable but the new pdf cannot do either. I am using "adobe acrobat reader DC" and print via "Microsoft Print to PDF". Unsure if there is any other relevant information.
After searching for a period of time I could not find an answer that allows for direct PDF to PDF print.
I did find a workaround however.
I downloaded a free software called PrimoPDF. Once installed, PrimoPDF becomes a printer option within Adobe acrobat reader. I then selected my desired pages and printed to PrimoPDf instead of Microsoft Print to PDF. This Generated a .ps file. I then imported the .ps file into PrimoPDF application and was able to generate a .pdf from that. The newly generated pdf was searchable and selectable and exactly what I needed.
Hopefully someone else finds this useful in the future.
Generally refrying (printing to PostScript then converting back to PDF) is a bad idea. The reason that Microsoft Print to PDF created a file that wasn't searchable is because when Adobe Reader detects that the printer it is targeting isn't capable of rendering the PDF correctly because of any number of reasons, like it doesn't have the right fonts for example, it will render the PDF itself and send an image to the printer. A simpler PDF probably would have worked just fine.
You are much better off getting a tool that will simply allow you to extract the pages you need to a new file rather than printing.
I have a pdf file that I am putting on a website for a client. It is located here...
http://www.optiphysicaltherapy.com/dev/wp-content/uploads/2014/02/OPTI_NewPatientForms.pdf
The title should be OPTI New Patient Forms but if you look at the tab in the browser and the name at the top of the browser window it says "Coury And..."
Where can I go to change this?
The website is using Wordpress 3.8.1 and I am not sure if it is in Wordpress or in the actual pdf file.
Thank you,
Matt
Ok, So I found out how to change the meta-data in a .pdf form here: http://help.adobe.com/en_US/acrobat/X/pro/using/WS58a04a822e3e50102bd615109794195ff-7c63.w.html (dead link; archived version here)
Sure enough the Title in the Meta Data within the .pdf was "Coury And..."
Once I changed this the Tab and the Title in Firefox web browser changed to have the title that I wanted.
This shows us that the meta-data in the .pdf does show in Firefox as if it were the meta-title of the webpage when displaying a .pdf within the browser.
Open the PDF with Notepad++ and search (CTRL+F) for /Title
Change title between brackets (and leave the brackets)
For instance:
Change "/Title (OLD TITLE)" into "/Title (This is my new title)"
Save the PDF and Voila
If you have access to the Word document in which the PDF is based, you can define the title when you save the file.
Whatever was on that link, I did it opening the PDF with a hex editor (HxD) and searching Title, so I found /Title (untitled) somewhere and just edited it (changed the value between parentheses, here untitled).
no need to change in meta of pdf. just to following change in iframe url
http://localhost:8080/getDataPDF//?patientId=145. use // to solve this problem it can hide your title.
Open the PDF document in Adobe Acrobat Pro: (OR use google chrome extension)
(1) Go to Select File > Properties
(2) Select the Description tab to view the metadata in the document, including the document information dictionary
(3) Modify the Title field to add or change the document's Title entry
When you open pdf in chrome you can hit print and save as pdf. As file name write what you want as title in browser, it should be the same now.
Open File > Properties, then in the box labeled 'Title', add your title.
Click on the 'Initial View' tab, where it says Show:, make sure the drop down says 'Document Title' instead of 'File Name'. This works for Chrome, but sadly not IE yet.
For change my pdf tittle I just open it on nano terminal, or with another text editor that open the raw, and I edit the Title field.
The title can be changed inside MS Office or LibreOffice if you have access to the source by going to file/properties/description.
As another answer suggested, printing as a PDF works here if you have the source document. What the other answer perhaps got wrong was that there is an option to add a title in the print dialog.
You can also use this online pdf editor to change metadata of a pdf file.
The title does not come from the pdf. it comes from the word file you export it from.
Right click on the word file, go to details. change the title and export again
Good luck
In InDesign I can define buttons and can add different actions to them. One of these actions is "go to page", but apparently that function is only usable when exporting the InDesign document as an SWF. However, we want to export an interactive PDF.
When we open the exported PDF in Adobe Acrobat Professional we can touch up each and every button in the document and set the page to the page we want, but this is of course extremely tedious work, especially when you have several proving runs.
So, my question is: how do I get my buttons in InDesign to jump to a specific page without having to do the touch up late in Adobe Acrobat Professional? Surely it must be possible to navigate between pages?!
I stumbled on this issue a while back too, and i figured out how to link to a place in an interactive PDF document via Buttons:
1) Create Bookmarks on the pages you want to link to. (I usually make a text in the top of the page in 'paper color' and create a bookmark from that)
2) Button action "Go to destination" -> Bookmark
Hope this helps...
Make a box in inDesign.
Select the box.
Open Hyperlink panel
"Create a hyperlink destination" I use the page number
Then go to the page in your inDesign document where you want to make the button.
Make a box and select it
Open hyperlinkpanel "Make hyperlink" and choose the destination you made using the pulldown (not the page number counter, that didn't work for me).
interactiv->Hyperlink and You choose "New Hyperlink destination" from menu in top-right dropdown menu. And choose page.
I tried sometime but now i know the deal (on CS5 on Windows). I only have the German version so maybe i´ll label some things wrong:
When you create your button and determine the "action" you´ll get a list with available options. Here the upper options work in PDF and SWF, but some options are available "only in swf" and "only in pdf.
"Go to a certain page" is not available in PDF :(
So you have to edit the document via Acrobat.
Another thing: When writing an interactive pdf-file use the option "Export..." under "File", here you chose "Adobe PDF (Interactive)" under filetype.
Maybe (as a thought) there is a way to use Javascript in InDesign and/or Acrobat to assign the buttons automatically.
I have looked for weeks and I keep hitting dead ends. I know you can create a text or image link and tell it to "print page" in a browser. But so far, I can't get it to print a document, specifically a pdf. I would like the print dialog to show after the link is clicked and yes, the pdf linked to has been printed.
Why does this seem to be such an impossible feat? I have seen it work in a Flash movie, but since I cannot access the native file I cannot see how it was done.
Any advice?
Thanks.
Many of today's printers support direct PDF printing. Lexmark, HP, Xerox to name a few all have this on most of the 'business' printers. On these devices simply sending the PDF file directly to the device over LPR, port 9100, or some other mechanism will result in a printed document. Some devices even support URLs. I do know that Lexmark had some devices that a URL could be sent to the printer as as long as it had access to the URL it would pull the document and print. In this case it supported basic HTML, JPEG, TIF, and PDF.
Hope this helps.
A PDF must be rendered as an image before it can be printed. Usually when you're printing a PDF file on your desktop you could simply right-click on the file and select Print and if you have Adobe Reader or an alternative application set as your default PDF viewer, then the PDF that you have selected will be opened automatically -- at this stage the PDF is rendered as an image -- and then the printing process will begin.
But if there is no access to a PDF viewer that can render the PDF and then print it, then you won't be able to print the PDF. Usually if you have Adobe Reader, Foxit Reader, etc, installed then when you click on a URL to a PDF then the PDF will open within the PDF viewer within the browser and you will be able to print it.
Alternatively, you could find a PDF SDK that silently renders a PDF as an image and then sends that to the printer, without the need to have a PDF viewer installed on your machine.
