A note about PDF files

PDF stands for Portable Document Format.
A PDF file will look the same on the screen
as in print regardless of what kind of
computer you are using or which software
package it was created from. Any computer
can view a PDF file using Adobe Reader,
which can be downloaded from the
Adobe website (www.adobe.com).

Changing the view of the page
There are a number of ways in which you can change the view of a page. There
are buttons on the toolbar that allow you to do this. Hover your mouse over parts
of the toolbar displayed below to see an explanation of what they do:

Customising PDF pages (1 of 2)
Selection tools
There are two selection tools that allow
you to copy items from the PDF
documents:
Select Text Tool
Snapshot Tool
It is advisable to use the Snapshot Tool

to copy any elements you do not want
to alter (e.g. tables, images and, in
particular, formulae and symbols), then
use the Select Text Tool to copy only
the text you want to alter. This will
remove the need for reformatting
tables.
Business
TUTOR RESOURCE FILE
To copy text:
Select the Text Select Tool:
Click and drag the mouse to
highlight the piece of text you want
to copy.
Either right-click on the highlighted
text and select Copy to Clipboard,
or select Copy from the Edit menu,
or press Ctrl + C on your keyboard.
EXIT
If you want to customise any of the

pages from the Tutor Resource File, you
can copy and paste the text and images
into Microsoft Word (or another word
processing application). You need to be
aware that the order of text can be
affected when you paste PDF files into a
word processing document, so it is best
to copy blocks of text rather than
attempting to copy a whole page at a
time.
BTEC NATIONAL

Customising PDF pages (2 of 2)
Click and drag the mouse on the

page to select the image (or other
part of the page) that you want to
copy. When you release the mouse,
the selection is automatically copied
to the Clipboard (i.e. saved in the
computers memory).
Then:
Open your word processing package.
Either right-click and select Paste, or
select Paste from the Edit menu, or
press Ctrl + V on your keyboard.
