Making changes to a pdf file ?

I received a pdf file of powerpoint slides. To print it, I want to make it into two slides per page and print double-sided (ie odd pages first followed by even pages) without messing up the order of the slides, how to do it?



Thanks!Making changes to a pdf file ?
Contact the person who sent you the file and have then send you the original PP file. PDF files are actually ';pictures'; for the original files, then makes them readable on any PC with the original PP software (which is PDF files are for - readability), but it severly limits the editability of the file (again, something you often want with a PDF file). So there is not easy way to do it. Powerpoint would let you do this with the original slides.



Now, if you have the full version of Acrobat Adobe, and not just the reader, you might be able to use the selection tool to extract each slide as a graphic, insert the graphic into a Word document, rotate and reduce it to fit two on a page, order them the way you need them, and print double-sided. Would probably need a graphic editor to crop each of the slides before inserting them into Word. Lot of work, but you could do it.



Or just print the full size slides back to back.Making changes to a pdf file ?
You need to have the original power point slide and in the print menu choose how you want the slides to print. You would then print your slides to the adobe pdf writer. Save the file. Then in adobe pdf reader you could print the odd/even pages via the print menu (when you select File--%26gt; print--%26gt; ).
Load and edit in power point or use photoshop.
