No margins, positioning, nor photo sizing restoration

Adobe sucks. Instead of forcing manual editting for everything and making it hard so people stay subscribed, try to create a product people can get things done with on less frustration and higher utility so people are actually satisfied.

 

3 issues I've identified which are blatantly difficult - more frustration should lead to longer sub times?

-Sizing when uploading photos -> shrinkage versus the original

-Positioning items -> no way to align to the center (though ruler tool has ways to measure but you can't move it after you've pasted the ruler rendering it useless to copy positioning)

-Adjusting margins -> no way to measure or replicate from prior pages

 

Basically everything is forced manual changes which makes it quite useless to do but make basic edits... so the future of content is to make it difficult for your users?

Acrobat is not a layout program. For such changes you need to use an application that suits the task, like InDesign or Word.

Thanks for pointing this out. I used a ruler to try to replace a photo with proper zoom and got the positioning right but a stretch instead of a nice resolution expanded page match. By hand, that was one hell of a print and mouse drag job. Wish they had some things like set to position on a page based on coordinates especially when margins are important for things like decks but the picture pastes somewhere on a white page leaving you somewhat in no mans land. Some of these features are quite intense to find, including printing in black and white which I managed to do with an add-on without losing the formatting.

Then, use the "Replace Pages" feature in Acrobat Pro.
