How to "print" to a PDF file using several templates?

I have Adobe Acrobat X Professional.
Now I want to export my documents (letters, bids, invoices etc. from my ERP) to PDF files using the Adobe PDF printer driver using different layout templates for example: we have two different letterheads (already PDF files) and some of the documents have to be exported/merged onto the first, and others have to be exported/merged onto the second letterhead.
Are there any options on how to select different templates in the Adobe PDF printer.
And if not, are there any solutions how to integrate this functionality into Adobe PDF printer.
Any help is greatly appreciated
Cheers,
Harald

ok, that's right. i also can use the add layer command to create the text over the letterhead.
but this is impractical. the users should be able to export the document using the desired template.
i need a superimpose feature or something like that for the pdf writer. hopefully it will be implemented
Thanks anyway.
Cheers,
Harald

    How do I edit a PDF file using Acrobat 9 - Version 9.4.0
    I need to edit - copy, extract text, add text, etc. from existing PDF files to SAVE my changes,
    or create a new PDF file from an existing file.
    This is very important for me to be able to do my job effectively.
    I spent over 2 hrs the last few days, and another hour today, still can't do it.
    PLEASE respond ASAP with a solution.
    Thanks in advance,

    PDF is an end destination format - although Acrobat is capable of making minor changes to a file (e.g. to correct typos) it is not a word processor or DTP application. Major changes must be done in the original document, and the PDF file re-exported.
    You can copy text from a file by selecting it and right-clicking, or you can save the file as plain or formatted text. To make small changes to the text on a page, use the touchup tool - see the help file for more info.

    It depends where the pdf is located. If in the Finder or in an attachment to
    an email in Entourage, the message is ³You can¹t open the application
    ³Acrobat Reader 5.0² because PowerPC applications are no longer supported².
    If an attachment in an email that has come via Safari, the message is
    ³Safari can¹t open the file because no available applications can open it².
    In each case the menu bar is Finder or Entourage or Safari as the case may
    be.

  • How to enable commenting into pdf files using java?

    Hi All,
    Is there any way available to enable comments into pdf files through java. I have a Adobe Reader 9 and also I want put some comments into pdf file, but the reader is not allowed to place a comment into pdf file before enabling the Comments into pdf. After enabling the comments in pdf file then only we can place the comments and we can the pdf file with comments.
    Is there any way available to enable comments into pdf file to view acrobat reader.
    Thanks in advance.

    The end user who uses the web application has Acrobat installed in their mahcine needs it only for the purpose of enabling comments in pdf. If this task of enabling comments in pdf is done through my application there is no need for acrobat in such user's machine which was requested as a cost cuttnig measure.
    For this purpose, i need to know about how to enable comments in pdf through java api.
    I have used itext java api for other pdf related manipulation in java. But it does not have feature as per the requirement posted above. Can any body suggest relevant java api to achieve the task requested?
    Tahnks in Advance.

    Well, the ability to convert the pdf to html and then to PDF is a worthy solution.
    10,000 emails would require a batch convert solution.
    This is very much beyond what I know. I'll have to leave this to better minds.
    I could suggest a third party tool. Have a look at this:

    Other than that,I can't think of anything else.

  • How can I read a pdf file using an ALC process

    I have a pdf form with a schema, I want to read the pdf form in to an xml with same schema so that i can process the data  that i get from the pdf file.
    I have tried the following
         I have created an input document variable (where i ll give my pdf form as input)
    I have created an output xml variable with the same schema as the input pdf document.
    I have created a process with set value service which assign the input pdf into the xml variable(so that i ll get the data from the pdf in to xml)
    Is the above approch is correct ..
    If any one knows, please suggest an approch to read my pdf.
    Thank You

    The fact that you have used a schema merely meand that the submission of the form data will be in the format defined by the schema. Generally when you submit the form you associate an XML variable in the user step to recieve that data (this assumes that your form is setup to submit xdp data). If you associate your schema with that XML variable you will be able to expand and see teh structure of your schema when using SetValue services etc. If you are merely interested in getting what was submitted (say to validate the data against the schema) you will have to assign the inbound data to another variable and remove the outer nodes that were added for our internal purposes (xfa.datasets.data). This is done in a setValue where you woudl use an XPath expresion of xfa/datasets/data/* (meaning that all nodes below the data norde are copied to the named variable.
    Hope that helps

    Thanks for your prompt reply. Well forget about conversion but there should be a way to just password protect any PDF file, correct?
    We have a 3rd party tool which does that for our VB6 apps, I am surprised how come Acrobat SDK doesn't expose those Properties/Methods for VB6 model.

  • How to print PDF files using java print API

    Hi,
    I was goign throw lot of discusion and reading lot of forums related to print pdf files using java api. but nothing seems to be working for me. Can any one tell me how to print pdf files using java api.
    Thanks in advance

    Mike,
    Can't seem to get hold of the example described in your reply below. If you could let us have the URL to get then it would be great.
    My GUI application creates a pdf document which I need to print. I want to achieve this using the standard Java class PrinterJob (no 3rd party APIs I'm afraid, commercial restraints etc ..). I had a stab at it using the following code. When executed I get the pretty printer dialog then when I click ok to print, nothing happens!
    boolean showPrintDialog=true;
    PrinterJob printJob = PrinterJob.getPrinterJob ();
    printJob.setJobName ("Contract.pdf");
    try {
    if (showPrintDialog) {
    if (printJob.printDialog()) {
    printJob.print();
    else
    printJob.print ();
    } catch (Exception PrintException) {
                   PrintException.printStackTrace();
    Thank you and a happy new year.
