Image filename description in PDF

Hi,
I have a converted powerpoint file which is showing up the original jpeg filenames when you mouse over the images in the PDF which i would like to remove or edit as they are just nonsense rather than a proper description.
I have looked in acrobat but I cannot find where it shows them up, can anyone help on this please,
I am using a PC version of version 9.
Ta muchly
Simon

Hi Dean,
Here is a sample of the image issue: https://acrobat.com/#d=EGVpC0TT2iHGyNXPUqWmCw
You can create/drag buttons from the Object Library onto the page. Then in the custom appearance you can set the fill and border to the look and feel you want.
In LC Designer, make sure that in the File > Form Properties > Defaults tab, you set 'preserve script changes' to automatic.
Also the object should have a 'normal' or 'name' binding in the Object > Binding palette. It depends on which version of LC Designer you are using.
When deploying forms it is important to consider what your users will open the form with - Acrobat or Reader. Here is a summary of what features are available depending on what the user has and whether the form has been Reader Enabled:
A summary and PDF is here:
http://assurehsc.ie/blog/index.php/2010/05/using-livecycle-forms-in-acrobat-and-reader/
There are two ways to Reader Enable the form: using Acrobat OR using the full server product LC Reader Extensions ES2. Come back if you need more info.
Good luck,
Niall

Remove the mouseover filename from a PDF document

I'm trying to generate a PDF using Adobe Acrobat X Pro through the Word 2007 interface. When I generate my PDF and mouseover an image, the mouseover text displays the filename of the image file (ie mouseover text="ImageFilename.png"). Additionally, some of these aren't even correct (the image filename is actually a previous revision of the image file and not the current file). I would like to know:
-What data does Acrobat poll to get these filenames. I know it isn't the actual filename since some are incorrect, so it must be some data contained in the word document itself?
-How can I remove this function altogether? There is no significance to the image filenames and I'd rather not have to ensure they all match the document text.
I have searched this and other forums but can't find instructions on how to do this. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!

I'm not aware of anyway to automatically remove them from the pdf file. You can manually remove each of them but it's always better to treat the source file than to treat the PDF file for changes.
To keep from seeing them without having to remove them all in Word, just use the "print method" to create the PDF file. Print to the Adobe PDF printer rather than using the Save as Adobe PDF feature.

Remove back image while exporting to PDF (InDesign CS4)??

Hi All,
I have two images in my InDesign CS4 file and one image is hiding behind my second image. When I am exporting my InDesign file as Pdf and opening in Acrobat, Acrobat showing bottom image first and then showing my top image.
Is there any way to remove my bottom image which is appearing behind in my top image while exporting to Pdf.
I don't want remove manually because it happening with most of my InDesign file.
Please suggest.
Thanks
Baljeet

I would move bottom image to separate layer and then eventually I would switch it off.
If you don't want to change anything in InDesign you can eliminate the second image in your already generated PDF.
Open your PDF in Acrobat Pro.
Advanced -> Print Production -> PDF Optimizer.
You can leave only "Clean Up" check box marked (eventually Transparency if Acrobat will not allow you to switch it off). All the rest leave unchecked.
This operation will remove hidden image.
Correction: It will not remove the image. It just made the PDF to be displayed much more faster that is why the second image appearance was not noticeable. Sorry for the inconvenience.

Help I can't get my images and description from recordset to display in repeat region table

Hi everyone,
could somebody please help me, this is my first php and mysql website, I have a web page that is supposed to display a table with 2 rows 3 columns.
In each column i want an image, a description and a paypal button.
then i have a repeat region placed around the second row which should display 3 records at a time.
The recordset worked when I tested it several times, and the paypal button displays in the browser, but the image and the description won't display and the repeat region doesn't work either as only one button paypal button displays.
I have uploaded the actual page, in the hope that some could take a look and help me to find out what the problem is.
Thanks

In the second row, did you mean you want the three fields to display, not three records? A record is one row of data.
Start by getting a single row to display, and leave the paypal button out for now. So that means you will see the first record in your recordset, the image and description. To view the description, use the data bindings panel, expand the recordset and drag the description field onto the page in the table. For the image, insert and image placeholder and point the source to a dynamic data source. Again, choose the approprate field from your recordset.
Once that record is working, add your repeat region and test.
For the Paypal button, I am not sure if each button will carry the correct information with it in a repeat region. There has to be a way to dynamicall add the approprate data to the paypal link for each record. You may want to also incude checkboxes or radio buttons and have only 1 paypal button - but that introduces other issues which we can tackle later.

How to: add images into an Interactive PDF

I was wondering if it was possible to add images into an interactive PDF once it has been sent to someone. The PDFs are forms that need to be filled by a client via their iPads using Adobe Expert, and they may need to occasionally attach images to the document and be able to edit these images (i.e. circle parts of the image to highlight them) then send these PDF's back to myself.
Is there a way this can be done?
Thanks

There is no program on the iPad called Adobe Expert. I think you mean Adobe Reader.
Adobe Reader lets you fill in forms but not to attach images. If you wish to make a request of the Adobe Reader product manager, you can post on the Adobe Reader for iOS forum here:

How do I resequence image filenames in an iPhoto event?

My system configuration: iMac i7 (2013), OS X Yosemite 10.10.1, current iPhoto app, all updates installed, and iPhone 6 Plus.
Within an event in iPhoto on my iMac, I have 300 photos. I have taken photos at various times within a two year period. After taking the photos I imported them into the iPhoto event whenever it was convenient. Now I have many photos in that particular event that have various unsequenced image file names such as IMG_0250, IMG_0262, IMG_0271, etc, etc. I am worried that sometime a photo that I take with my iPhone 6 Plus will have a duplicate image filename again such as IMG_0262. I do not want the duplicate IMG_0262 on the iPhone to overwrite the previous IMG_0262 file on the iMac. Since my photo filenames are unsequenced, I would like to sequence them and begin their names with IMG_0001, IMG_0002, etc, etc. I resequenced the image names once before in another event, but do not remember the procedure I used. Can someone please assist this old man. Thanks

1. These are filenames created by your camera, not image titles.
2. A new photo with the same name will not ever overwrite another one. The file management on iphoto is smarter than that.
3. You can change the title of a photos using the Photos -> Batch Change command.

Why doesn't Photos display image filename?

Updated to Photos but found that whereas before one could display information beneath each image now there is no way to show the filename or the date of a picture. Over the years I have changed image filenames so that I can quickly find specific images and having the dates visible makes for easy classification without having to create loads of albums etc etc and then move stuff around. It would be nice if Apple didn't remove functionality when replacing software.

Because there is no need for the file name - it is of no use
and if you have been using iPhoto you have never changed a file name
By default both iPhoto and Photos set the title to the file name if there is no title in the MetaData - but changing the title has no effect on the file name - in either program it is not possible to change file names
In Photos you can see the title in the info window - if you want it below the photo request that apple add that option

Set filename of printed PDF via script

Hi folks!
I have a little problem with generating a PDF. First my Workflow:
I have a InDesign document with 6 pages. This document is merged with a databasefile containing 100 records. After merging it, we have to generate a PDF file. This PDF file is opened within acrobat. Within the document, I'm searching for an ID each record has so I can split the document to 100 files (each with 6 pages) and name it by the ID I found.
The script within Acrobat is finished and working. I thought, the InDesign script is finished ,too. But I was wrong -.-
I merged the databasefile with the document and exported it as PDF. But after exporting, we noticed that the script within Acrobat isn't finding the adressheader where the ID is in. The script only noticed the text after that header. The result is, that Acrobat get's always "null" as ID
If we print the PDF with our PDFprinter, the header could be read by our Acrobat script. I don't know why this is... But now I changed the script to print the files via our PDF printer. Unfortunately I can't set a name for my exported file - do you know if there is a possibility to print PDF's without prompting after each one and with a via script given name?
Here you can see the old script for InDesign and right after it, the Acrobat sript. Maybe I made some mistake by generating my PDFexport and don't need to use the printer?
INDESIGN SCRIPT:
* prompts filebrowser and stores name and path of file in variable
var sourceDocument = File.openDialog("Bitte Indesign-Dokument auswählen", "*.indd", false);
* stores only prefix of filename for use as new filename
var newName = sourceDocument.name.substr(0, sourceDocument.name.length-5);
* stores folder where file is stored
var dbSourceFolder = sourceDocument.parent+"/";
* prompts for databasefile where generating should begin
var dbstartfile = File.openDialog("Bitte Start-Datenbankdatei auswählen", "*.txt", false);

var dbstartfilename = dbstartfile.name.slice(0, dbstartfile.name.search(/_Teil+/));
* gets number of first databasefile
var i = dbstartfile.name.slice(dbstartfile.name.search(/_Teil+/)+5).slice(0, -4);
* generates path name and name of first databasefile to use

Crystal Reports Developer 11 - image quality in exported pdf file

I need to create a report with many images and export it to a pdf file. The image quality in the pdf file is slightly lower than in the rpt file. Can someone tell me how to increase the image quality in pdf file?
Thanks,
Hong

This document explains how to increase the image resolution when exporting:
https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/sdn/go/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/30407084-c51d-2b10-1f81-813488350e6f
But it's for Crystal Enterprise 8.0, do you know if Crystal Reports 11 will work the same way?

Photos do not show in Messages - Only show as image filename

For a long awhile now on Messages has not been handling images sent to me properly.
All that shows up on Messages on my MBP (now running Yosemite) when someone sends me a message is the image filename (example: IMG_0456), with a little Preview icon to the left.
Before the image used to show up on my Messages app on the MBP. Now, even clicking to open the image filename, just brings up a little dialog box with a larger Preview icon and the size of the image.
In order to view images sent to me, I have to check them on my iPhone.
I was hoping the Yosemite upgrade would fix this, but it seems to not have, and numerous searches for answers brings up no results. I have no idea when this started as it happened awhile ago.

I have an early 2014 MBP (4th gen i7, 16 GB of RAM, IRIS Pro graphics) and am having the same issue. Attachments that could show previews displayed properly in Mavericks. If someone sent me a video, I could watch that video inline. If someone sent me a picture, I could see a preview right in the messages window, and double-click the image to view it at full-size / potentially open in Preview if I wanted to. Now, after upgrading to Yosemite, I too only see the filename of the attachment, and if I double-click it, a window displays with the filename, file type, and date created.
This is obviously a problem.
Has anyone figured out a way to fix this issue?

How to imbed image from XPAAJ into PDF livecycle form

We are having a very hard time trying to add an image to a dynamic XML PDF created in livecycle Designer 8. Basically we have a letter document and we are importing data into the PDF as XML. We need to insert an image of the users signature to appear on the form. We have saved the image on a file share and I created an image field in the PDF. How do we get the image into the PDF?? The rest of the XML data is properly inserting into the PDF but the image will not. We are using the XPAAJ API. ANy help would be GREATLY appreciated. Thank you.

I'm hoping you have figured this out by now, but in case others are having the same problem there is a section in the livecycle designer 8 regarding how to do this. You can search for "XML schema binding" and an example schema on how to include the image data in the XML you are passing to the PDF (I've been using the XPAAJ library as well) is shown.
Essentially you just need to base64 encode the image data and include a contentType (image/jpg, image/png, etc.) and a transferEncoding (base64) attribute on the element containing the data.

Image hot spot in PDF

Hi all
I am very new to the Livecycle product ...WOW ..it's awesome !
I wonder if someone could please help me ....
I am using Livecycle Designer ES2 latest version and it is sinstalled stand alone on my PC.
My two problems are :
1. I would like to add an image into the fillable .pdf I am creating, so I can click anywhere on the image and I could set an action to go to a particular are in the .pdf file or to a url or print.
My questions are as follows :
Is this possible ?
If so the how do I do it ?
2.As a teacher I let my students fill in the fields in the fillable .pdf file and after making all the selections, they click submit or print.
Is there any way the resultant form can still be fillable because once they have finsihed doing the clicking and filling in the fields I would still like to edit it and then finally save/submit or print it.
Can it be done ?
If so then how do I do it ?
Really looking forward to a little help :-)
Thanks a million

The description I added for the S and S Show has worked. But for some reason, the description for my other site will show up and then disappear.
The last time this happened, the description was gone from my xml file. I added it again, it then showed up again and now its gone again. No idea why this is happening.

Link image filename to text.

Hi, I am making a catalog and I have it in a basic format. Image of product first, underneath it is ProductID + Price. The image filenames are formatted with the d of the product. How can I link it so in my catalog where is says ProductID: to have a string or variable after so that it will auto. take the file name of the above product and put in the id without .jpg following. I have tried but there is not even one way I can think of other then a simple link to the text box and the image box, there should be a feature to create any variable you like.

In the sample scripts there is one called LabelGraphics which might work as a starting point (I've never used it myself). You could then run a series (if more than one format is involved) of GREP Find/Change queries to remove the extensions from the file names.
