And always pdf files open with Adobe reader. So, there is no difference.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<h2>Can you import PDF into Photoshop?<\/h2>\n<\/p>\n<p>When you open a PDF file in Photoshop, you can choose which pages or images to open and specify rasterization options. You can also import PDF data using the Place command, the Paste command, and the drag-and-drop feature. The page or image is placed on a separate layer as a Smart Object.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<h2>Why is my PDF blurry?<\/h2>\n<\/p>\n<p>If you start with a low-resolution image or other file, the resulting PDF may look blurry or pixelated, especially if printed out. PDF converters can&#8217;t make your finished document look any clearer than the original. Use files with resolutions of at least 72 dots per inch for Web display and 200 to 300 dpi for printing.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<h2>How do I edit a PDF in Photoshop?<\/h2>\n<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>Backup your PDF file.<\/li>\n<li>Open the PDF in Adobe Acrobat (Pro)<\/li>\n<li>Select the page, right click, edit in Photoshop.<\/li>\n<li>Do your edits in Photoshop.<\/li>\n<li>Save the image (you might have to merge the layers first)<\/li>\n<li>Return to Acrobat to find the updated image in place.<\/li>\n<li>Repeat for the following pages.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<\/p>\n<h2>How do I fix a pixelated PDF?<\/h2>\n<\/p>\n<p>Please check your font smoothing options in Adobe Reader X under &#8216;Edit&#8217; >> &#8216;Preferences&#8217; >> &#8216;Page Display&#8217;.
