Hello,

I saw a video on youtube: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=taBeIrDKgVY&eurl=http://www.turnkeyflyers.com/index.php%3F&feature=player_embedded

It shows a PDF where the end user can insert images and the PDF automatically resizes them.

I want to create PDF's where the end users can edit images and text, the text i can figure out but the images? I cant seem to find a way of doing this with acrobat...

Help??????

It's not possible to edit images inside Acrobat. You can only place them in a PDF and then resize or move them around. If you want to edit them you will need Photoshop, or some other image editing application.

They use PDF forms with image fields - you can place an image in the field and print the PDF, as try67 says, but can't edit the image in any way (contrast, rotation, cropping, etc.). Lots of people ask us about using images in forms - search the forums for explanations on how it works.

Thanks,

Does that mean that the end user can change the image? I just need the end user to change it not to change the (contrast, rotation, cropping)etc....

Ive looked in the forum but theres no concrete answer...

Much apprecaited....
