So I got put in charge of figuring out how to use acrobat at work and other than shopping on the internet I am computer illiterate. Anyway, what I need to do is this:
we scan in a type written document as a .pdf, on this document there is a handwritten chunk of text that I need to crop-cut-whatever out and save as a .jpg It needs to be saved the same size as it is when it is cut out.
I think I achieved this once yesterday but have no idea how I did it. Is there a way to do it? An easy way I should say.
WE have acrobat 8 standard.
Any help would be s greatly appreciated you have no idea.
Something to try.
First, Open MS Paint. With the cursor, select the edge of the default "canvas" and click-drag to make a rather small box in the upper left corner.
Now, with a PDF open in Acrobat, select the "Snapshot Tool" (Tools > Select & Zoom > Snapshot Tool).
Click-Drag to create a box around the desired portion of the PDF's content.
Release of the mouse button results in a dialog/alert window that tells you that the selected area has been copied.
Click OK.
The selected area is in/on the Clipboard.
Go back to MS Paint.
Use Edit > Paste.
The selected area is now on the MS Paint "canvas".
Do File > Save As
The Save As dialog is presented. At the bottom, you can use the drop-down menu to choose the file type.
From the Save in feature (top of dialog) you can dictate where the file is to be saved.
