How to Edit a pdf file to reduce font size?

pdf image

Kanwarjeet

I've downloaded a pdf file which contains lot of pages written in quite large fonts. I need to take print outs of these pages. Is it possible to reduce the font size in a pdf file so that i can reduce the no of pages? If yes then how?

Answer
The best way to edit a pdf file is to edit in its source document, to modify in existing pdf files, you will definitely need 3rd party programs to help you either convert to editable documents or make pdf files editable.

It seems that your file is text-based one then you can use pdf redactor like this, follow this tutorial to change font size and print off in it.

How do I convert non-editable pdf document to editable form without losing formatting etc. ?

Q. I have a pdf document that needs to be filled out. Instead of printing a hard copy and manually filling it, I will like to convert it to an editable format and fill out the soft copy. Need urgent help.

Answer
Due to your situation, I think you should try some PDF to excel converter. This kind of tool could help to reuse the data from PDF file to excel file, and then you can use or edit it easily.
I always need data from the internet, they are always in PDF files. I am using a converter either, it works well.
You can have it a try. May that help:)

Is it possible to convert a pdf into powerpoint or another editable format?

raven

I have a pdf of a powerpoint presentation and I need to make some changes, but the person who created the presentation is no longer with my organization and we can't find the original file. Is there any way to convert it back to powerpoint? I'm guessing not, right? Any suggestions on how I can make edits without having to re-make the whole thing?

Thanks very much!

Answer
If you have a PDF Editor, (not just a reader) you can modify the PDF file directly.
If you do not have a PDF editor:
A PDF file is essentially a picture. If you only have minor changes to do, you can use a picture editor by pasting another picture over top of the existing one.

How do you program a hyperlink in a PDF doc to open into a new browers window?

cerealcity

I am converting Word docs to PDF. If an exisiting browser window is open when you click on a hyperlink in the PDF doc it opens in the exisiting browser window instead of opening a new window. Why is this? How can I make it so the hyperlink always opens a new browser window?

Answer
I am not sure if this can be changed for a PDF document, but you can change your personal Internet Explorer settings to always open up in a new window:

Tools > Internet Options > Advanced (tab) > Browsing (section) > Reuse windows for launching shortcuts (checkbox).

This is assuming that you are using Internet Explorer too, for other web browsers I am sure there are similar options.

What is the best way to protect my PDF eBook?

I made a PDF from a Microsoft Word document. So far so good. Now what is the best way to protect my PDF eBook to ensure I don't get thousands of unauthorized copies of my PDF eBook floating around the internet?

I don't want to use a simple password to protect the PDF document, because judging by the amount of unauthorized PDF copies of other eBooks I have seen available on the internet, that security method is very weak.

Answer
