Pdf Help!!

:hi2:

Don’t know if this is the right place but here goes!!

I need to edit some pdf files which were imported from another program (Family Tree Maker).

At the moment,all I want to do is delete some unwanted info which the FTM automatically prduces-deleting a few words to create a blank side when two side printing & to delete a couple of words from a “Contents” page,automatically generated by the FTM.
It’s only a tidy up process really.

I’ve got a pdf Editor (CAD-KAS PDF Editor 2.2 Pro) and read on Adobe.

Problem: Whenever I delete,all or part, of a page, Adobe says:

“There was an error processing a page. There is a problem reading this document (109)”

I cannot read the subsequent modified document as a result.

Can anyone tell me what,in my ignorance,I’m doing wrong or what I should be doing,please.

Thanks

try saving a brand new copy of the PDF as something else on the ROOT of your hard drive (C:), you’re troubleshooting two types of possible errors there.

error 1: possible file location error (due to weird folder names or curruption)

error 2: the file may not be compatible with your PDF editor, because you’re resaving it will convert it to ITS mode.

if all fails try downloading Nitro PDF Professional free 30-day trial version download

:smiley: Thanks Dwarfer. I’m not sure that I understand the technicalities but,since posting, I’ve found that if I delete the original “Save As”,& create a new one by exporting to Adobe, it will then save to Adobe pdf. That means I can ignore the editor.
To do my page blanking, I just create one just containing a full stop.
To do my editing I copy the “Contents” page to a blank text page, which I can then edit on FTM & then discard the original FTM “Contents” page.

A bit clumsy but, if it gives me what I want,what the hell!
