Hello,

I need to insert photos in a PDF file. I have Adobe Acrobat Professional but I can't get it to work. Any help out there?

TIA

Not easy, but... Sep 16, 2008

If you can make room for the photo, do this:

Select the STAMP icon > Select "Create Custom Stamp..." > Browse for the photo type, and name it. Click Ok.

Once named, stamp it (place it), and manually size it.

That's it.

Yeah, that should do Sep 16, 2008

But the DTP person left you a hard task. The DTP should have sent you the source file; I mean, the file from where the PDF was created: InDesign, PageMaker, Quark, Word, maybe?

Well, anyway, you can do it as I said before.

Have luck.

Use Adobe Illustrator to modify PDF-file Sep 16, 2008

Hi Harris,

if you have Adobe Illustrator, you can open the PDF-file, save it in the '.eps format, then add your photo, then save file with different name in format '.pdf.
You know, that Adobe Illustrator supports extentions: *.ai, *.eps and *.pdf, don't you?

Hope I could help you.

In case you don't have Adobe Illustrator, please don't hesitate to contact me. If you send me your PDF-file and your additional photo, I can help you.

Best rega... See more
