USING ACROBAT 9 STANDARD 58 Creating PDFs Note: The PDF Editor can make changes in text only with PDFs created from blank pages. To add a blank page to a PDF created by another method, create a blank document in another application and convert that file to PDF. Then import the blank file into the existing PDF. Create and add text to a new, blank PDF 1 Choose File > Create PDF > From Blank Page. 2 Begin typing text to add to the page. 3 Add any formatting to the text by selecting it and selecting options in the New Document toolbar. 4 As needed, select other tools and options. 5 Choose File > Save, and select a name and location for the PDF file. Note: When the page is filled with text, the PDF Editor automatically adds a new blank page to the document. Edit text in a PDF created from a blank page 1 Choose File > Open, and locate and select a PDF created with PDF Editor (that is, one created from a blank page). 2 Choose Document > Resume Editing. 3 Add text and formatting as needed. Prevent changes in PDF Editor You can freeze the text you have added to PDFs created from a blank page. This prevents anyone from adding or changing the text. There is no Undo for this process. 1 Choose Document > Prevent Further Edits. 2 In the message that appears, click Prevent Further Edits to confirm your choice. Or, click Keep Text Editable if you want to continue adding or editing text with the PDF Editor. 3 In the Save As dialog box, select a new name and location for the file, or leave the original name and location selected to replace the original file with the uneditable version. Preferences for the PDF Editor The PDF Editor preferences are available in the Preferences dialog box under New Document. Font Specifies the font family to use by default for typing on a new, blank page. Size Specifies the size of the default font. Default Margins Specifies the measurements of the insets from the edges of the page: Left, Right, Top, and Bottom. Size (under Default Page) Specifies the standard paper size, such as Letter, Tabloid, A4, and so on. Orientation Specifies whether the longer side of the page runs horizontally (Landscape) or vertically (Portrait). Enable Fast Web View in a PDF Fast Web View restructures a PDF document for page-at-a-time downloading (byte-serving) from web servers. With Fast Web View, the web server sends only the requested page, rather than the entire PDF. This option is especially important with large documents that can take a long time to download from a server. Check with your webmaster to make sure that the web server software you use supports page-at-a-time downloading. To ensure that the PDF documents on your website appear in older browsers, you can also create HTML links (versus ASP scripts or the POST method) to the PDF documents and use relatively short path names (256 characters or fewer).
