Hi,

Is it possible to convert a PDF file back into Pagemaker without losing formatting. Had a nasty crash and what I have left is a PDF Of the file. I am in serious trouble if this is not possible.

Any info will be appreciated!

Ah, no. The only thing you can do is import a pdf into a programme, but this can be no better than an image.

If there are really important bits of text, artwork etc then you can copy and paste items from acrobat into a document, but I am afraid that all your formatting and page templates will not be retained. Derren

You can often open the PDF in Illustrator and do some very limited editing. This has saved me in a pinch. When in doubt, deny all terms and defnitions.
