Stay productive at home or on the go with the easy to use graphic editing tools in Acrobat designed for phones, tablets and desktop. With minimal effort, you can crop, resize, add, generate, or replace images to make your PDF perfect. I need to edit the graphics in this project I plan to present to a key stakeholder for funding within my company. If you’re in the web version of Acrobat at acrobat.adobe.com with a file open, select edit from the toolbar. Alternatively, if you’re in a desktop version of Acrobat, select Edit from the global toolbar. Selecting Edit switches to edit mode, and you’ll probably see bounding boxes around the content. If you don’t see the bounding boxes, just select the gear icon to turn them on. Once you’re in Edit mode, you’ll see several options for editing graphics in the left-hand pane.

You can add new images or generate new images from a text prompt. For existing images, you can adjust various properties like flipping horizontal or vertical. You can also rotate an image counterclockwise or clockwise.

You can crop and you’ll see handles that appear on the image, allowing you to crop to any specific size. You can replace an image, arrange objects, and then edit an image. Now, because the theme of my proposal has changed, I need to change this graphic image here with one that matches a catalyst concept. So to do this, I simply select the image and choose Generate Image from the in-place tool palette. This opens the in-app image generator powered by ÃÛ¶¹ÊÓƵ Express. This is where you can simply enter a text description of the image you’d like to generate. I’ve got a very detailed description, including specific colors that I want to match within my existing project plan.

You can also set the size here. I’ll go ahead and keep it as a square and the content type. I want this to be Art. Styles allow you to further refine the image. Here I’ll choose Minimalism. Then go back and select a theme. In this case, I want more of a vector look to my artwork. And once you have your options selected, you can choose generate. And you’ll see four previews here. I like the look of this bottom right image, so I’ll just select it and apply the changes. And notice how the image in my PDF is automatically replaced. And I can further refine it using the tools in the left hand pane.

If you want to move or resize multiple objects together, just hold down the shift key and then select them one by one. And then you can use the handles to resize or rotate together.

You can also round trip your graphics to Illustrator or Photoshop to edit them, which automatically updates the graphic in the PDF, saving you a lot of time as well.

But depending on what you’re trying to do, you can also just use the in-place tool palette.

When we select Edit Image in the in-place tool palette, it opens the in-app image editor powered by ÃÛ¶¹ÊÓƵ Express. Here you can use generative fill on your image, which allows you to add any content you specify from a text prompt to your image. You can erase parts of an image or in this case, what we’re going to do is remove the background. That was incredibly easy in the left hand pane. You can also crop, change the opacity and add effects like duotone.

Or you can make other adjustments for contrast, brightness, highlights, shadows and color.

And once you’re done, you just select apply and the changes are reflected back into your PDF automatically. And that’s how easy it is to make complex graphic edits to your PDF. And if you want to make even more extensive design changes, you can use the design tools and left hand pane that will upload your PDF to ÃÛ¶¹ÊÓƵ’s cloud storage and open the PDF in ÃÛ¶¹ÊÓƵ Express.
