I recently received this email from one of my blog readers:
Does Adobe Acrobat have a feature similar to the eraser in the old MS Paint program to edit pdf documents? The feature does exist in ScanSoft Paperport (I have version 11). It is very useful to remove stray marks on scanned images, staple marks, fax headers, punched hole marks, etc. If used with extreme zoom, I can remove just about any marks on the page so it looks like new. However, it would be useful to have all the features in one program. I prefer to use Adobe Acrobat to OCR, and otherwise manage PDF documents, but if they need editing I am forced to use ScanSoft Paperport. Also, the file size seems to go way up after I edit the document with Paperport.
There are two ways you can clean up content in a PDF:
- Use the Redaction tools (Acrobat Pro only) and redact using the 'No Color' option.
See my Redaction Guide for instructions. - Use the Edit Image option and an external editor to clean up the PDF
I’ve never written about the second option previously, so this seems like a good opportunity to do so!
Using an external image editor makes the most sense for image-based PDFs. However, Acrobat can also call a program to edit vector content, too.
Image Editor Preferences
When you first install Acrobat, the installer program searches for compatible editing programs on your Mac or PC.
The install process will select Adobe tools— Photoshop for image editing or Illustrator for vector editing— as the defaults, but you may also use tools like MS Paint.
If you install an image editor after installing Acrobat, you will need to tell Acrobat where to find it.
To view or change your image editor preferences:
- Edit> Preferences (Acrobat> Preferences on the Mac)
- Go to the Content Editing category
- Click the Image Editor button to find a program which can edit images
- Click OK

With your image editor preferences set, you are ready to edit an image embedded in a PDF. Note— this will only work on an image within a PDF or on an scanned PDF document..
