Perhaps someone can tell me what happens when I try to edit image in Acrobat
6. In 5 I could select a picture, open it in Photoshop with the edit image
tool and edit the photo with no trouble.

In Acrobat 6 however, when I try to select a photo there will be several
"layers" of blue outline boxes which mostly have nothing in them. Sometimes
they will have type or art in them but not always. If I do edit the picture
and save it when I reopen the PDF the layers are all askew and the original
ad is now useless.

I put layers in quotes because I tried the Acrobat 6 layers tool and it
showed no layers. I am not saying that the original artist did not have
layers, just that they do not show up in the Acrobt 6 layers tool.

Further, I know that some of the PDFs I get are simply newspaper pages
produced by unsophisticated (in graphics) editors. Surely they are not
deliberately creating layers of any sort.

The problem is especially severe if they use PageMaker 7, any photo imported
into a frame will have an additional layer, or whatever it is.

Can anybody tell me how to deal with these things?
