Points to note about the placed PDF file :
- Is the placed PDF editable?
I mages and PDF documents are placed as raster graphics and cannot be edited in InDesign . If you want to edit the placed PDF content, do one of the following before you place them
- Edit the PDF file in Adobe Acrobat
- C onvert the PDF file to an InDesign document using Third-party plugins Ensure that you do your research before you use these plug-ins.
- How do I resize the placed PDF pages ?
We found a third-party Script that can help. This is a recommendation and not an endorsement of the plugin.
- Why do PDF pages get overlapped while placing the PDF file ?
This happens when page size s of the PDF file and the InDes ign document do not match. Go to File> Document setup and uncheck facing pages.
