Can I UNEXTEND an ADOBE PDF document?

[Former Community Member]

I want to unextend a document. I recently failed to keep a "pure" backup of a document for a project. Now I have the document extended and I wanted to provide the document to users who are outside of my licensed users.

My option seems to be to convert it back to draft, which leaves a watermark, or to Final, which would technically break my license agreement.

Any Advice?

Also, can I edit the watermark to put something related to my organization?

Was it a document created in Designer? If so you can open the PDF in Designer which will convert it back to an XDP, then you can save it out as a PDF and it will be unextended.

Now the answer seems so obvious. Many thanks Chris.
