Hi to everyone,

I have Acrobat8.

How do I reformat the number of pages taking of the blanks area after deleting text or images?

Thanks.

Hi --

If you remove content from the pages, the rest of the document doesn't automatically reorganize itself, as I am sure you discovered!

The only way to do it in Acrobat is to select/delete/paste content from one area to another and gradually close in the spaces. This method is great if you only have a couple of changes to make.

On the other hand, if you have a lot of blank spaces throughout a document, it's a lot simpler and faster to return to the source document, make the corrections there, and then recreate the PDF file.
