Title: PDF Editor needed for CB500 Parts Book
Post by: SteveD CB500K0 on March 17, 2009, 01:48:47 PM

Bryan Jones sent me a very precious CB500 K0/K1 Parts Book which I have scanned to pdf (157 pages!)

Checking the file, I find that I've missed out one of the contents pages and scanned one of the other pages twice.

This took me about 3 hours to scan so don't really want to do it again!

Does anyone have access to a PDF Editor programme so that they could fix the file for me before posting it on the site(s)

Steve

I might be able to get you a copy of acrobat 5 (kof--kof)

Thanks Bryan.

I've put the feelers out (as you can see) here and in the Triumph forums.

The pdf file is 7M (so not too big).

If you don't mind, I won't send the book back until I've sorted this  :(

Bob Wessner has offered to have a go.

I've put the files on my website so that he can download them.

That's the problem with PDF's technically they are not editable, they are just the output, a bit like electronic paper. I can progmatically exctract and insert pages into an existing pages to create a new document.

See how you go.

Did you manage to get the document sorted? If not, send me a link and I'll see if I can get it altered at work

Cheers
