    Preview stopped showing embedded photos for PDF

    I can't seem to figure out how to show the embedded pdf photos when I open a pdf? Preview used to work fine, but something must have happened. Attached is an image, on the left is the pdf opened using Acrobat Reader and on the right is the same PDF in Preview. Help! http://imgur.com/a/kk0rS

    iCloud Drive - highlights and notes

    Preview Fillable Form Font Size

    Hey all, This one has confounded me for a while. While the font toolbox works great for formatting the text inside a text box, PDFs that are downloaded and typically marked as "Form Fillable" seem to have some alternate text box that has no adjustable properties. The font toolbox does not...

    macOS Merge two Automator PDF scripts?

    I have two scripts that I use for manipulating PDFs, and I'd like to merge them into a single one. However, I struggle to get the output from the first command to act as input for the second. Script one simply flattens the PDF with Ghostscript and modifies the file extension to differentiate...

For example: a book has 10 pages of introduction so I want it to start reading from the 11th on... is it possible WITHOUT manually selecting all the...

    PDF rendering in Preview

    Preview was once a great PDF viewer. Since the last two or three OSX versions, it became less great, and I wonder what has happened. This is a part of a PDF with editable fields (the numbers can be edited), when I fill them in with Preview: Note how the baseline between the filled-in text...

I'm guessing this is new in 9.3 but perhaps I just haven't been paying attention. This is huge...
