How to edit a scanned PDF file

Edit images or objects in a PDF

Easily correct, update, and enhance PDF files. Resize, move, or replace images— without returning to your original
source document.

Place an image or object into a PDF

1

Choose Tools > Content Editing > Add Image

2

In the Open dialog box, locate the file you want to place.

3

Select the image file, and click Open.

4

Click where you want to place the image, or click-drag to size the image as you place it.

A copy of the image file appears on the page, with the same resolution as the original file.

5

Use the bounding box handles to resize the image, or the tools in the Content Editing panel to Flip, Rotate, or Crop
the image.

Move or resize an image or object

1

Select the appropriate tool depending on what you want to move:

Image

Choose Tools > Content Editing > Edit Text & Images

. When you hover over an image you can edit, the

image icon appears in the top left corner.

Interactive object

To edit form fields, buttons, or other interactive objects, choose Tools > Interactive Objects >

Select Object tool

.

Do any of the following:

• To move the image or object, drag it to the desired location. You cannot drag images or objects to a different page

(you can cut and paste them to a new page instead). Shift-drag the object to constrain movement up or down, or
right or left.

• To resize the image or object, select it, then drag a handle. Shift-drag the handle to retain the original aspect ratio.

Note: If you select multiple objects, you can move or resize them together.
