Resizing acrobat 9.5 file

Hi, I resize my models to the scale I want. I normally do this by opening the PDF file using Paintshop pro version 9.
However, I am trying to do teh same with the free Magnus Morcke models, but they are saved in Adobe Acrobat version 9.5 and when I open them in PSP they do not come out properly. They have layer or colours missing.


Can anyone recomend another program that I can open these files with or change format to an earlier PDf version? Preferably free or cheap!!

Managed to answer my own question! Rather than try to convert fiel to an eralier version I downloaded this Tracker Software Products :: PDF-XChange Viewer, Free PDF Reader . It's a free program and I was able to convert the file into images and these opened fine in my art package! I like the way I coudl choose which pages to export as images as well!

Happy modeller again!

Thanks for the follow up information. I will have to check that program out as I was going a whole different route to achieve the same result.

No problem. I've used it several times now and find it works better than my art program. My art program had to load every page as an image and was therfeore slow as it used lots of memory even on the plain insturction pages. This program being a pdf viewer loads quickly and it's then easy just to export the pages you want converted.
