FAQ
How do I go about extracting PDF text, images, and vector line drawings?
In Adobe stack you can approach all that in Acrobat Pro Illustrator and to some extent in Photoshop. While copying is pretty ubiquitous and nearly every PDF reader supports it Acrobat goes a step further in that it identifies distinct paragraphs for you so you don have to remove the residual line breaks from the exported . That does not work during copy-pasting but works while editing in Acrobat and when you export your PDF to other formats like docx or pptx. In fact for it usually best to export to Word and copy from there. You will also preserve some or all of styling along the way (with clipboard you can too use the Copy with Formatting option on selected ). Keep in mind that there are many methods to store in a PDF not all of them optimal so export results vary wildly especially for languages not based on Roman alphabet. If you are having trouble with a particular file try copying from it in several viewers. Often the standard Mac OS X Preview app handles tricky most gracefully. Alternatively you can try using the various font fixups available in Acrobat Pro Preflight panel or just resave to PDF Acrobat applies some of those in the process. Images. For starters from Acrobat you can batch-export all s checkbox) with control over file format andpression resolution and colorspace. Alternatively you can go one by one. Select the that won work anymore youll only be allowed to open them as a PDF in Illustrator. If you need a number of select s or 3D models. If you click Images Photoshop lists all that you need your best bet is to rasterize the entire page then cut out the or as mentioned in Photoshop the Pages open option. Vectors. No direct SVG export from Acrobat youll need Illustrator. First of all don forget that PDF natively supports Bue9zier vectors and that it is a working format for Illustrator under the hood (you can even open 99% of .ai files in Acrobat provided thepatibility checkbox was not unticked in Ai save options). So it works fine the other way around just do File Open on any PDF in Illustrator choose one page and edit your vectors or export them to SVG of all flavors. If you need to get to that one vector element from a PDF in Acrobat use Edit tool select one or more elements (vector or raster or in anybination) right-click and choose Edit to open in Illustrator. Or choose Save selection as to make a new PDF with just the selected objects on a blank page that very handy. Another useful extraction feature is afforded by the Preflight functionality in Acrobat Pro. It allows sorting vector raster and objects in your PDF by layers. Invoke the Preflight panel switch to fixups search for layer to get to the Create different layers for vector image fixup. Ultimately there is a wealth of Acrobat plugins to allow you almost any manipulation you could ever think of on a PDF. E.g. Enfocus PitStop for granular access to every object with searching and automation. Do study the enormous power of built-in Preflight first though. One thing that Acrobat will not let you extract is fonts. While it is technically possible Adobe intentionally avoids venturing there for font licensing issues. Use Google to look for alternatives. Another thing of note about fonts for all the same reasons is that while editing in Acrobat Pro you can only use locally installed fonts not those in the file even if fully and with all permissions.
Has foreign piracy of your work ever cut into your book sales?
It is extremely difficult to tell to what degree foreign piracy affects the sales of books. Firstly the mere fact that someone illegally downloads your book in a foreign country does not mean that they would have bought it had it not been available for free online. Secondly because any digital copy of a book can be shared and re-copied an infinite amount of times once a book bes readily available online it is impossible to trace and track each clone let alone retrieve them. Thirdly the benefits and disadvantages of foreign piracy must always be considered. If a grassroots movement surrounds your work in a particular country this could have an unexpectedly positive effect on book sales there. It could even be possible that in particular countries where strict filters are placed between internet users and the internet at large there is no other way for pirates to get their hands on your work. All these things have to be considered when trying to figure out how much foreign piracy affects our book sales. Internet piracy in general is estimated to cost the economy between $2 mil and $25 mil each year. But again because the culprits of piracy are rarely caught it is difficult to give anything but a ballpark figure. This is why most authors opt for preventative measures referred to as DRM (digital rights management). The of DRM available usually fall within the following three categories Password Protection Using various apps such as Adobe Acrobat or the native MacOS alternative Preview you can password-protect your PDFs and e-pubs. There is no flexibility in terms of what users can access - they either have the password to open the file or not. This can deter users but the encryption is less than industry-standard and can easily be removed for free using various services and solutions. Watermarking or Social DRM Social DRM is implemented in various ways but typically involves imprinting your PDF or e-pub with a visible or invisible watermark containing the user personal information. This discourages sharing as a file with your personal information attached to it means any copy of it is trackable and attributable to you. Industry-Standard DRM Protection DRM protection with secure encryption and the versatility to control what users can and cannot do with your PDFs and e-pubs will cost you money. The security of these services relies on them constantly being one step ahead of the thousands of people attempting to decrypt their solutions for their motives be they business or personal.
