Pictures in PDF

Andystriker

Hi all,

Someone has sent me pictures in a PDF folder. I would like to put them into "My Pictures" in the "My Computer" folder. I would like to be able to put one of these pictures as desktop background.

However I can't copy and paste into My Pictures from PDF. I can get the picture into a word document but still cant paste into My Pictures (just goes in as scrap).

Is there a way of doing this?

Thanks in advance.

Quick and easy way would be to get a freeware screen capture utility. Then crop and save or paste.

Try here....

Hi,

you could try this.

You should be able to use the Image Select tool in Acrobat Reader to take a snapshot of each picture (It's an icon on the toolbar). Paste each snapshot into Paint, and save as a JPEG into My Pictures.
You can then select an image in My Pictures as a desktop background.

Very handy but make sure you're not trying to bypass someone's copyright of course. Sometimes people use PDF files for a reason.
