CFMAIL formatting question

I'm sending out a email using CFMAIL, but have noticed that
the formatting
gets all screwed up in places like Hotmail.
What is the best type of formatting options to pick? I have
the options set
as shown below:
<cfmail from="[email protected]"
to="#form.Email#"
bcc="[email protected]"
subject="Requested fencing information"
server="mail.site.com"
port="25"
charset="iso-8859-1"
type="html"
mimeattach="c:\emailDocs\#SendFileName#.zip"
mailerid="Site"
failto="[email protected]"
replyto="[email protected]">
And the the actual mail is being sent as:
Dear #user1#, 
Thanks for requesting fencing
information.
Your requested information has been attached to
this email in the
form of a ZIP file. You will need a program such as PKZIP or
WinZIP to
decompress the attachment. The programs listed above can be
obtained from
<a href="
http://www.pkware.com">PKware</a>
or from <a href="
http://www.winzip.com">WinZip</a>,
if not already
installed on your computer.
You have requested the following
documents: 
<cfloop list="#form.Events#" index="i">
<cfset file1=findnocase("/",#i#,4)>
<cfset dl_file=right(#i#, file1+2)>
#dl_file# 
</cfloop>
We hope this information answers your questions,
and we hope to see
you at a fencing class soon.
Is there a better way? The message is getting all jammed
together, no
spacing for paragraphs, etc......
Thanks!

What a pain that is!! :)

Landscape formatting question

Can anyone help me with a formatting question? I have a number of PDFs that are landscape format. Every time I open them they default to portrait, even when I change orientation in page set-up and re-save...

You are only changing the view, not the pdf. Use the Rotate command in the Document menu, not the view menu.

Cascading lookup format questions

Hi everyone,
I have a couple of questions regarding formatting the cascading look up fields. I have a list that filters classes and mnemonics by educator which works fine however on the entry form, when the "Educators" drop down menu is changed,
a secondary description box appears. The question is, how do I get rid of that secondary description box?
The second formatting question is that when I have filled out the form, on the edit entry form, there is a hyperlink to the list that the cascading lookup is using as a reference. How do I get rid of that link? See image 002 below

It's not easy to understand the question, please attach the image here.
if you mean to achieve a cascade lookup in SharePoint new/edit form, after selecting one column, the cascaded column below will show with filtered value, otherwise, the column is hidden, you may consider to use JavaScript/JQuery to show/hide the second column,
following is an article about how to use cascaded lookup in SharePoint:

Adding loops and loops format question

Hi, i've been facing difficulties adding loops into my GB. My problem is: "Loops do not appear in my loop browser nor the loop list from the silver loop bar above the browser".
Yes, forgive me for asking this repeated question but after checking the help tutorial, my personal GB guide books, and even HangTime's FAQ, sadly, i still dont find any answers.
Generally, the procedure is pretty simple from all the sources i've read. Simply drag the folder or loops into the browser and thats DONE right? I did exactly what it said but sigh...maybe there's something wrong with my Macbook?
For your information, all the loops that i've been adding are loops from CDs coupled with FutureMusic and ComputerMusic magazines, so i believe the sources are pretty reliable i hope.
As i was struggling to add the loops, this msg popped up for the first time; "Loops that are not in Apple format will not be added into GB"
So, is the loop format the main cause of my problem?
if yes, is there any way to convert the format? what is the procedure?
ps: My current status is, some loops i added are in my browser while some dont although they exist in User/Library/Audio/AppleLoops/UserLoops.
Thank you in advance.
Peace

So, is the loop format the main cause of my problem?
likely.
if yes, is there any way to convert the format? what is the procedure?

Converting from PDF directly to Java Objects/XML (and PDF format questions)

Hi,
I posted this originally in the Acrobat Windows forums but was told I might have more luck here, so here goes:
I am desperately trying to find a tool (preferably open source but commercial is fine also) that will sit on top of a PDF and allow me to query it's text for content and formatting (I don't care about images). I have found some tools that get me part of the way there, but nothing that seems to provide an end-to-end solution but is quite lightweight. My main question is WHY are there so many tools that go from PDF to RTF, and many tools that go from RTF to XML, but NONE that I can find that go PDF to XML.
To clarify, by formatting I simply mean whether a line/block of text is bold/italic, and its font size. I am not concerned with exact position on the page. The background is that I will be searching PDFs and assigning importance to whether text is a heading/bodytext etc. We already have a search tool in place so implementing a pure PDF search engine is not an option. I need a lightweight tool that simply allows me to either make calls directly to the PDF OR converts to XML which I can parse.
Some tools I have tried:
1) PDFBox (Java Library) - Allows the extraction of text content easily, but doesn't seem to have good support for formatting.
2) JPedal (Java Library) - Allows extraction of text content easily, and supports formatting IF XML structured data is in the PDF (not the case for my data).
3) Nitro PDF (Tool) + RTF to XML (script) - This works quite nicely and shows that PDF to XML is possible, but why do I have to use 2 tools? Also, these are not libraries I can integrate into my app.
4) iText (Java Library) - Seems great at creating PDFs but poor at extracting content.
I don't really expect someone to give me a perfect solution (although that would be nice!).
Instead, what I'd like to know is WHY tools support PDF to RTF/Word/whatever retaining formatting, and other tools support RTF to XML with the formatting information retained. What is it about PDF and RTF/Word that makes it feasible to convert that way, but not to XML. Also, as I found in 3) above, it is perfectly feasible to end up as XML from PDF, so why do no tools support this reliably!
Many thanks for any advice from PDF gurus.

XML doesn't mean anything - it's just a generic concept for structuring
information. You need a specific GRAMMAR of XML to mean anything. So what
grammar would you use? Something standard? Make up your own?
However, there are a number of commercial and open source products that can
convert PDF to various XML grammars - SVG, ABW, and various custom grammars.
But the other thing you need to understand is that most PDF files do not
have any structure associated with them (as you saw when using JPEDAL). As
such, any concepts of paragraphs/sections/tables/etc. Are WILD GUESSES by
the software in question.

And a partition in a pear tree...format question

Well, I've spent almost an hour of my life I won't get back. Trying to archive an iDVD project (33gb) from internal hard drive to new Lacie 160g external. Keep getting "Error in archiving project" message. Even though I was able to copy some large folders onto the drive, with no problem, iDVD doesn't like that the drive is apparently formatted to FAT. I assume. Whatever. Okay, I'll play: I'm ready to reformat the drive. Understand HOW....but that's not the question....
"You can choose up to eight partitions." Okay, Eight. How about seven? Why not 1,000? How do I, as the APPLE tech support docs says, "choose the number of partitions I want" if I don't have a clue as to why I am choosing them. I figured two would be good enough. So, any help would be appreciated (I've copied the files back over to what's left of the hard drive so I can format now with impunity. I hope this solves the "you can't get there from here after spending more time and money" message. All I want to do is archive the files so I can get 155gb of the 160gb hard drive back. And understand "choose the number of partitions you want" and run the disk utility instruction.

Hi TuckerdogAVL
What you need to do is partition the drive in Mac OS extended for it to work with iDVD6.

The procedure might look something like this:

Hope this is Helpful.

Photo format question

Newbie question: when designing an ID document (let's say ID CS4, since that's what I'm using), is there any difference in placing a Photshop image (.ps) versus a .TIF file? I've done both. And is there any harm in using high-res .JPG's? I have a friend who works in Quark and he always changes every photo to .TIF before placing. Thanks.

Resizing is a different issue altogether from format.
It's safe to scale the image in ID regardless of the format. If you look in the info panel with the image selected you'll see two resolution numbers listed, actual and effective. Actual is just the resolution at the dimensions the image was saved and is essentially irrelevant. Effective resolution is what you have at the dimensions you are currently using, and that's the number that counts. If that number is in the range that is acceptable for the type of output you are using, there is no need to resize the image in Photoshop at all.
If you MUST resize the image, then yes, convert to something besides jpeg if that's what it is to start. And keep in mind that up-sampling won't improve image quality in general, and downsampling more than 20% or so can cause you to lose fine details (but so will scaling down).

Apple mail formatting Question

I just bought a MBAir and in using Apple mail I cannot seem to format email replies to contain an extra two lines of blank space above the original email. Is there a way to format email replies to do this automatically?

Roland,
What is the question? The reference to the system administrator, is more in reference to how the IMAP server is configured. Does this IMAP work, as expected?

Script format question: Title over

Question: In the script format when using a "TITLE OVER" is it a General, Shot or an Action format. Appreciate any input here, thanks.
Rich

It a good question, as it is worth thinking how the elements in our screenplays will be used down the line. So for example, although the formatting of making it a Shot certainly would put TITLE OVER in caps, and making it Action would allow the paragraph it is in to be lower and upper case, it better to think how the elements may be used as metadata when you move on from writing, rather than how they look on the page. The tags and elements will be used by others in many different ways as the script moves through the planning and shooting steps.
Shot elements will be processed by an application like Adobe OnLocation which will create a placeholder shot for it for the shoot. That could be theoretically correct in this case as the title will need to be shot. However to answer your question I think General is the appropriate element, just as the Title and Author are General on the titlle page.
Are there other elements of the screenplay that will need to be tagged in special ways so they are available as the right kind of metadata later in the production process?

JFileChooser and date format questions

I have a JFileChooser that currently works - I set the default directory and allow the user to select a file or enter a file name.
I have been asked to modify this to prepopulate the file name field on the JFileChooser.
How do I do that? It is not obvious which method to call to set the filename field.
Also, the file name needs to be a timestamp "*yyyyMMddHHmmss*.dat"
I tried creating the timestamp part with the following code, but it does not format as expected.
        String s = "";
        SimpleDateFormat dateFormat = new SimpleDateFormat("yyyyMMddddHHmmss");
        try
            java.util.Date now = new java.util.Date();
            java.util.Date dat = dateFormat.parse( now.toString() );
            s = dat.toString();
        }What is wrong with this?
Thanks.

PDA Formatting questions ...

Environment
APEX 2.2 - I know, I know, we're working on the upgrade, they say 'soon'.
Oracle 10gR2 on the database side
I'm trying to format an APEX application to fit on a PDA screen even though the PDA hasn't been selected yet, I'm using a Symbol scanner running Windows CE as a test bed.
The application runs OK but there are still some blank lines that I can't seem to get rid of.
Here are a couple of questions:
1- Can I change the height of the text and item fields on the screen?
2- How can I get rid of the Region/Page name and reclaim that space?
3- I have 2 buttons at the bottom that appear side-by-side on my PC but are on top of each other on the PDA, can't find out why?
4- Is there a way to put a 2nd label (or free text area) for an item to the right of it?
I'm pretty newbie-ish at this so please be gentle with your suggestions! ;-)>
Thanks very much! APEX rocks!
-gary

Dimitri, et al
I've done as much as I can with the version of APEX I'm currently using, thanks for the suggestions.
I now need to know how to initiate the scanning function on the scanner. I'm using a Symbol NC9060 to test but it looks like we'll be using NC9090 for Production. I believe the NC9060 is running Windows CE and the NC9090 is running Windows Mobile 6.
Is there a function code I need to send to the scanner before we start the application? If so, is that done through APEX or some program outside?
We'd obviously like to use the scanning function to gather barcode information as input.
Thanks in advance for any assistance.

Format Question - Biz Objects

I created a report with 8 data fields; I added a 9th column and included a formula that provides a 'status' for a given line item based on the data pulled within the report. There are three seperate statuses; I then inserted a break which now seperates my three statuses into groups by that status, which is exactly what I want. I can't figure out out to get a 'heading' above the three groups though. Since I created a formula for the column of 'status', it won't let me drag that column heading to 'drop here to create a section' when I am in view structure mode . I would simply like to be able to have a static heading above each section and have scoured the options/formatting/etc. Is that possible to do?
Thanks

New to business objects; valid question you ask. In my 'research', it is only a dimension value that allows for the section headers, which is why I havne't been able to figure this out. That said, I guess I am not clear on exactly what a dimension variable is or how to do that.
To drive my status, I created the following formula in that column:
=(If Not(IsNull([Income])) And (([Address]) <> "To Be Determined") Then "***Needs Action***" ElseIf((([Address]) = "To Be Determined")) Then "No Action - Property TBD" ElseIf(IsNull([Income])) Then "No Action - Incomplete")
Thanks for the reply.

Basic Mac / DOS format question

I need to transfer some large video files from a friend's MAC system to another friends Windows system. They're 4.2 GB each.
I do have a NTFS driver on my own MAC system, so I can bring the files home and copy them from the MAC drive to an NTFS drive.
However, I would just as soon eliminate that extra step. (I'd have to bring it back here, and it would add an extra day to the process.)
My question: if I were to bring a standard DOS (not NTFS) portable drive, would it be able to accommodate files of that size (4.2 GB). Is that the limit?
Thanks! I appreciate it. I know this question is a comparatively easy one for most of the members of this focum!

thanks! that was very quick. 3.9999 is the limit - the "old" DOS system is technically called "ex-FAT" or something like that, as I recall.
Anyhow. most importantly, MAC can read an ex-FAT drive without an additional drivers or modifications, so I have to get the guy to generate slightly smaller files.
thanks again,
w
No, the 'old' Dos format is called FAT32 and is the one with the sub 4GB limit. eXFat can accommodate files larger than 4GB and should work for your purpose but is a less reliable system, use it for transfer, not for long term storage.
Here's a link to the Wiki page for eXFat
