Replace Image Replaces the selected image with the image you choose. Locate the replacement image in the
Open dialog, and click Open.
To rotate the selected image manually, place the pointer just outside a selection handle. When the cursor changes to the
rotation pointer , drag in the direction you want it to rotate.
Move an image or object in front or behind other elements
The Arrange options let you move an image or object in front of or behind other elements. You can push an item
forward or back just one level, or send it to the front or back of the stacking order of elements on the page.
1 Choose To o ls > Edit PDF > Edit .
2 Select the object (or objects).
3 Under Objects in the right hand panel, click Arrange and choose the appropriate option.
Alternatively, you can right-click the object (or objects), and point to Arrange and then choose the appropriate
option.
For complex pages where it is hard to select an object, you may find it easier to change the order using the Content
tab. (Choose View > Show/Hide > Navigation Panes > Content.)
Align images or objects
The Align Objects options let you precisely align multiple objects on a side - Left, Vertical Centre, Right, Top,
Horizontal Centre, and Bottom.
When you align objects relative to each other by their edges, one of the objects remains stationary. For example, the Left
option aligns the left edges of the selected objects with respect to the left edge of the leftmost object. The leftmost object
remains stationary, and the other objects are aligned relative to it.
The Horizontal Centre option aligns the selected objects horizontally through the centre of the objects, and the Vertical
Centre option aligns the selected objects vertically through the centers of the objects. The objects are aligned along a
horizontal or vertical line that represents the average of their original positions. An object can remain stationary, if it is
already aligned to the horizontal or vertical line.
Depending on the alignment option you select, objects move straight up, down, left, or right, and might overlap an
object already located there. If you see an overlap, you can undo the alignment.
1 Choose To o ls > Edit PDF > Edit .
2 Select the object (or objects).
3 Under Objects in the right hand panel, click Align Objects and choose the appropriate alignment option.
Alternatively, you can right-click the object (or objects), and point to the Align Objects option from the context
menu and then select the desired alignment option from the submenu.
Edit an image outside Acrobat
You can edit an image or graphic using another application, such as Photoshop, Illustrator, or Microsoft Paint. When
you save the image or graphic, Acrobat automatically updates the PDF with the changes. The applications that appear
in the Edit Using menu depend upon what you have installed and the type of image or graphic you have selected.
Optionally, you can specify the application you want to use.
