Auto-adjust layout

Transcript

So here we have a PDF that our designer has sent us and it looks okay, but it’s a little bit everything is weighted to the left. So what I’d like to do is move some objects around. Of course I have a PDF and if I try to do that I can’t. I can select these objects and I can do a few things. I can mark them up, but I really can’t change much about the layout. So enter a new feature in Acrobat called Auto Adjust Layout. In order to invoke auto-adjust layout what we need to do is first go into edit mode. So I’m going to click on this button here and watch this little animation up above here. It says Auto-adjust Layout and there’s a spinning circle, and when it stops, it says auto adjust layout is on, which means that the document has been uploaded to the Adobe Cloud. It’s been analyzed and it’s now ready for those changes. So, for example, if I want to take this screenshot right here, this display screenshot and I wanted to make it bigger, I would simply drag and notice that everything below it moves accordingly as it would if you were working. For example, in Microsoft Word. I’m going to turn on my rulers here with the command are on the Mac and I’m just going to drag a guide to the center. I know this is an 11 inch page, so I’ll drag a guy at around five and a half and then I’m just going to move that shot over there and I’ll take this image and will drag it about like that. I’ll take this block of text which otherwise I couldn’t move. So this can now sit around there. We can even take the table, move that into the center and so on. Notice also that if I take this text block and I want to place it now beneath the table, watch what happens. See that blue line which indicates the new destination. And when I let go, the table now moves up, takes the place of the text, block, and the text is now beneath.
