Standard PDF Encryption with owner and user passwords used to be the only PDF protection. Unfortunately passwords do not stop somebody of passing the PDF document on to somebody else. Even worse is the fact that PDF passwords can be removed very easy. The owner password for example can be removed in a matter of seconds without even knowing the passwords. The Aloaha PdfCrypter solves these PDF limitations and offers are complete DRM solution. Aloaha encrypts the PDF documents with the public key(s) of the user allowed to read/display the PDF document. As the resulting PDF document is PDF 1.5 compatible it can be read with the free Adobe Reader 6 or higher. Certificate encrypted documents cannot be passed on to a third person – thus making them the ideal solution for eBook distribution or secure sealing of documents. The Aloaha FileCrypter encrypts any document with a list of public keys stored in the users address book or certicate store. These encrypted files can only be decrypted if... See less

Once you have decided upon the best format for your ebook, your next step will be the design process. In this lesson, we will be focusing on PDF ebook design. No matter which format you choose, one of the most important factors in determining your ebook's overall success is your presentation. Your ebook should not only look professional in design, but should also be well organized and easily navigated. In addition, your ebook should include images that will enhance its appearance and compliment your subject matter. Although you can design your ebook using an application of your choice, for the purpose of this article, we will focus on designing your ebook with Microsoft Word. When you purchase and install Adobe Acrobat, a shortcut button will be added to your Microsoft Word toolbar. This button will enable you to instantly convert your word document into a PDF document.

A while ago, I posted an article detailing a trick to make the value of a field be displayed entirely within the field’s content area. Essentially, by setting the value font size to zero, this tells Acrobat to shrink the field’s content area (value) font at will to make the entire value entered fit horizontally. This can certainly be useful but there’s one significant drawback: the value font may shrink such that it becomes too small for anyone to read depending on how much data the user enters into the field. Fortunately, there’s an alternative method to making a value fit within a field’s content area when you don’t know how long the value will be: Making the field’s width and/or height expandable! The advantage of this solution is that the value font’s size remains constant (the same as which you specified it to be when you designed the form). When a field is make expandable, its "w" (width) and/or "h" (height) attributes are replaced by "minW" (minimum width) and/or "minH" (minimum... See less

Learn how to make a book in Adobe Photoshop, using just Photoshop no other 3D modeling program. Create a new document in Adobe Photoshop with a white background. In the next steps we’ll make the front of the book. Save the next picture on your computer and open in Photoshop. Drag’n'drop it on the document: Step 2 Resize it and draw a rectangle (with a black background color) below the layer which contains the picture. Delete an area at the bottom of the picture with a small brush like “Soft Rounded 80 pixels”. This is my result: Step 3 What we can do now is to add some kind of elements on our book’s cover. We can add some kind of text or other graphic details: Step 4 Now “link” all the elements which you draw. To do this step click on the boxes in the Layers Tab; like in the next picture: Step 5 “Rasterize” the text elements: right click in the Layers Tab on the layer and choose Rasterize Layer.

For best results, you may want to make your image a good bit larger than my example and scale down the final result to your desired size. Create a new layer and go to Filter>Render>3D Transform. Click on Options and make sure Display Background is checked. Select the Cube Tool (), and draw a box. Focus on making the right panel the correct side for the face of the box.

Here's a few simple steps to generate variations of line art from your digital photos. The source image used in this tutorial is from AbsolutVision.com. Register today for a great high resolution image of the week or for a cost effective monthly or yearly memebrship. To begin, have the target image layer selected, as I have captured above. Next, go 'Filter/Blur/Smart Bur' as I have captured below. From the 'Smart Bur' dialog, make sure the 'Edge Only' Mode is selected and toy with the 'Radius'/'Threshold' sliders. The objective is to ensure that an edge line covers the entire image with some overspill into the interior of the image as well. This will produce a similar result as below. Next, with the same image layer active, go 'Image/Adjustments/Invert', as I have captured below. Inverting produces the below resulting image. The above result is quite satisfactory, but to add to the edge effects of the line art, go 'Filter/Artistic/Cutout' as I have captured below. Depending on how... See less
