Netweaver 2004 :  How to create an pdf without need to use Adobe Control ?

Dear WebDynpro experts,
in my application I use Adobe interactive forms to create a pdf document for printing purposes.
I provide it as download using the file download GUI element.
There's no need to work with the pdf document afterwards, sionce it is only needed for printouts.
If I use my application with Firefox this works great. I can download my pdf without any problem.
But if I try to use Internet explorer and wand to download the pdf I always get the message that I have
to install Adobe Control into my Internet explorer.
Is it possible to configure my application the way that I don't need the adobe control on my Internet explorer ?
Is there a better way to provide non interactive pdf documents ?
Best regards,
Daniel

Dear Ruturaj,
thanks for your answer.
Unfortunately Í don't have an "display type" property for Interactive form.
I have beneath the Event and Event properties the following properties in my
property list for the Interactive Forms element :
data source
enabled
height
id
mode
pdfsource
templatesource
tooltip
visible
width
I also checked the Form Properties within the designer and didn't find a display type property.
I assume this is due to the fact I use an old version of Netweaver Developer Studio since I have
only Netweaver Developer Studio 2004 SP 20.
is there a way to switch off Active X using such a version ?
Best regards,
Daniel

  • How do I convert .pdf into searchable OCR using Adobe Acrobat Capture 3.0?

    How do I convert .pdf into searchable OCR using Adobe Acrobat
    Capture 3.0?
    Our division is digitizing it's files, and we've been using
    Adobe Acrobat 5.0 (2). We've 'scanned-in' several hundred
    documents, but they have been saved as .pdf files (which are
    currently not 'searchable', as they are only scanned images).
    We just received the Adobe Acrobat Capture 3.0 program, and
    we were told that we would be able to scan-in any new documents and
    save them both as .pdf and OCR documents (Optical Character
    Recognition). Therefore, we were told, we would be able to search
    through the body of the document, using OCR, and not just through
    the document filename, as we had been doing before.
    HOWEVER, we don't know how to use this new OCRing program.
    Also, we don't know how to convert the .pdf documents which we've
    already scanned into OCR recognizable documents.
    Is someone able to assist us here in this forum?

  • Can I create a PDF that includes photos using Adobe Reader?

    Is it possible to create a PDF document that includes photographs using only Adobe Reader?
    Or do you have to pay yet more for Acrobat?

    Rachel, although Word is not specifically designed for the job you describe, it can be used for it. Once you have completed your document, you can export it to a PDF file directly from Word (File > Save as > PDF). I would suggest trying first with a single page containing text and photographs like those you'll be eventually using. If results are not as good as you would like, you can explore other methods, such as using a proper design program to produce your originals. And, whatever method you use, don't forget to keep the original files along with your PDFs, and backup copies of both.

  • Creating a PDF from an image using Adobe Reader 9.0

    Hi, I've converted a bitmap image to Adobe PDF using Adobe Reader 9.0. I was able to open and read the file but not to modify it. The resulting file ended up being password protected. I do not have a password. I am using Adobe Acrobat X. Can you help?

    I used an application called Bloomberg (feed with investment info) from where I was offered to convert an image into a PDF to save it. The laptop on that station is loaded with Acrobat Reader 9.0.

  • How to create a pdf  without "ToolBar" in Adobe Reader by designer?

    My target is :
    A PDF is created by Livecycle Designer9,when people open it by reader that not show toolbar.
    If the PDF is created by Acrobat,I can set the Document Option to do it
    But in Livecycle Designer9,I don't know how to do.
    Please help me,thanks.

    Hi,
    Do you mean "open in full screen mode"?
    If so there is an example here: https://acrobat.com/#d=JK2I24ZgmsvMr6BtCQNMOg
    The script is in buttons to show the separate functions, but you can combine the ones you want in the docReady event.
    Hope that helps,

  • How to create automatically PDF with Adobe OLE/Automation without pop-up?

    Hi,
    I developped an application (langage Windev) which extract datas from  PDF documents and split them in many PDF documents.
    I use Adobe Arcobat Pro (version 10.1.8).
    I call the method "save" from the object AcroExch.PDDoc and  the method "close" from the object AcroExch.AVDoc.
    It works good mostly but sometimes, after the treatment of a document, I have this message at beginning of the treatment of the following document:
              Adobe Acrobat recovered one or more documents that have not been properly recorded before the Acrobat stop.
              Click Yes to open the documents retrieved.
    However, the methods "call" and "save" return no errors...
    Do you know what is the reason? Or how to catch this message?
    Regards,

    If you want dynamic content, then you want to use form fields and JavaScript.
    If you were to use a n Acrobat Template with the necessary JavaScirpt, you would need to add that template to each PDF and then run a JavaScript to overlay that  template over each page.
    It might be easier to use a Batch Process or Action to add the necessary Will Print script and form field on each page. You could even add a menu or tool bar item to perform this task.
    You can search these forums for the necessary code.

  • How to create a pdf file from multiple images ?

    Dear All,
    I want to create a SINGLE page pdf file from two or more page size images that are combined to make a single page pdf. Again, this question is on pdfs that are made out of several, atleast  two color images and a black-and-white mask for one of them.
    I have such pdf files from an unknown source (the producer is edited out) whereby there are three tiff images, obtained using the well known pdfimages extractor.
    When I want to make a pdf out of tiff or png or other image formats, I right click and tell Adobe Acrobat to make a pdf.
    However, I dont know how I can give a command to select say,  three tif images and specify which is the mask for which and then join  them in a way that I get the pdf from the composite of the two color images and a mask for one of them.
    Please help me out.
    I am a little familiar with the pdf structure skeleton and when necessary, fixed xref tables in one of my favorite editors. A few years ago, I also wrote a bunch of javascripts to make some annotations and needed some automation and used some itext type libraries. However, I need your help in this problem as I am now rusty and forgot some of what I studied to solve my earlier problems. This is a new problem for me. Gentle hints from you would be very nice to help me in this problem. Please specify if necessary what manual and pages to read. in the pdfspec.

    I would gladly mention that I am working on windows platform, preferably XP.
    I can also work on linux for free products that come with it.

    But adding other products, for the help of an adobe products user,
    even if it outside adobe, shall add greater prestige to your company
    and give impression of user-centeredness.

    Well, just add the few pdf stanzas since you are proficient on it and
    I am presently a little rusty as I mentioned. Just asking a little
    extra yard, not even to go an extra mile.

    Well, ascii format or uncompressed format that is human readable. I
    know its a binary file, but human readable ascii version of it.
    I hope you can give me some stanza and various other approaches
    possible so I can select or combine things for myself. I see only a
    miniscule number of posts claiming to have written masks in this forum
    and then with no details.

  • Create a pdf without showing it in the UI?

    Hello!
    I'm trying out Interactive Forms for Java for the first time, so please bear with me if this is obvious.
    Is there a way to create a pdf and not display it in the ui? If I for example just want to download or email it.
    I've tried setting visibility to None and Blank but that prevents the PDF from being generated at all.
    It sort of works if I use FireFox and choose DisplayType activeX since FireFox can't display ActiveX. Our customer runs IE so that is not an option however.
    Thank you for any input!
    Kind regards,

    Hi Richard,
    You can create a pdf without displying it in UI.
    Follow the below steps :
    1. Copy your xdp file under mimes folder.
    2. create a pdfsource context and DataSource node for pdf.
    3. Create a File Download UI element in Ui and bind the data property with pdf source context.
    4. Now copy the below code in wdDoInit() which is genrating the pdf from xdp.
    wdContext.getNodeInfo().getAttribute("pdfSource").getModifiableSimpleType();
    ByteArrayInputStream pdfInputStream = null;
         String templateUrl = null;
         try {
              templateUrl = WDURLGenerator.getResourcePath(wdComponentAPI.getDeployableObjectPart(),"Name of XDP with extension");
         } catch (WDAliasResolvingException e1) {
              // TODO Auto-generated catch block
              e1.printStackTrace();
         try {
              IWDPDFDocumentHandler pdfDocumentHandler = WDPDFDocumentFactory.getDocumentHandler();
              IWDPDFDocumentCreationContext pdfDocumentCreationContext = pdfDocumentHandler.getDocumentCreationContext();
              pdfDocumentCreationContext.setData(WDInteractiveFormHelper.getContextDataAsStream(wdContext.nodeDataSource()));
              pdfDocumentCreationContext.setTemplate(getByteArrayFromResourcePath(templateUrl));
              //pdfDocumentCreationContext.setDynamic(true);
              IWDPDFDocument pdfDocument = pdfDocumentCreationContext.execute();
              pdfInputStream = (ByteArrayInputStream)pdfDocument.getPDFAsStream();
              wdContext.currentContextElement().setPdfSource(pdfDocument.getPDF());
         } catch (WDPDFDocumentRenderException e) {          
              wdComponentAPI.getMessageManager().reportException("An error occured: "+e.toString(), true);
         }catch(Exception e){
              wdComponentAPI.getMessageManager().reportException("An error occured: "+e.toString(),true);
    5. create a another method in global section
      private byte[] getByteArrayFromResourcePath(String resourcePath)
         throws FileNotFoundException, IOException {
         FileInputStream in = new FileInputStream(new File(resourcePath));
         ByteArrayOutputStream out = new ByteArrayOutputStream();
         int length;
         byte[] part = new byte[10 * 1024];
         while ((length = in.read(part)) != -1) {
         out.write(part, 0, length);
         in.close();
         return out.toByteArray();

  • I need to know how to create a pdf document larger than 129 inches from MS Project 2007

  • How to create a pdf with the correct size?

    Hi there
    How do I create a pdf with the correct size? I created several albums and ordered them. Now I want to backup the album and I know how to create a pdf, but when I choose A5 it's to big, when I create my own size it's not the size it should be. The original (made with iphoto) is a small size album 200x150mm. But when I create my own size (200x150) it shows some white borders.
    Does anybody have some tips ore workarounds?

    Iphoto 11 (9.4.2)

    Books are designed for and printed on 8.5 x 11 inch stock, US Letter size.  You shouldn't have to select any size.  While viewing the All Pages mode in the book Control-Click on the page and select Save Book as PDF from the contextual menu. 
    That will create a PDF that iPhoto uses to upload and print.  Not all pages will be the same size as the dust jacket will be present in it's full size, 32.8 inches x 8.91 inches:
    If you want a PDF that's designed for your own printing the type Command+P while viewing the All Pages window.  In the first print window click on the PDF button.  It will present you with a contextual menu where you should select Save as PDF.  That will give you an 8.5 x 11 PDF file with all pages the same size.

  • How to print a pdf without user interaction (With C#)

    My boss assigned me a task that to get the ImagePreview of 1st page of PDF.
    My thought is to print the 1st page of PDF to file(virtual print to file), and get the image source, but there comes the problem:
    How can print a pdf without user interaction(With C#),question are these:
    1. I can use the ShellExcute but cannot assign the destination of output file.
    2. User interface is unwanted, I don't want show anyone the Acrobat Reader interface who click the file just want to get a preview.
    3. No place to put those parameters in.
    This problem confused me a lot of days, I wish someone can give some hints.
    Thank you very much!
    (Maybe you will tell me to use Acrobat SDK, please don't, I'm afraid we cannot afford that)

    >I have not read the document yet
    This is the first step. There are many documents, but start with the
    introductory/getting started material.
    > with a index.pdx
    A PDX is a search database to allow you to do fast searching in
    Acrobat.
    >
    >About the relationship between Adobe Reader and Acrobat, as far as I know is that, the previous one is just the reading tool for PDF document, instead, Acrobat can modify and resave the PDF doc. Is it right?
    Effectively, yes. But the Acrobat SDK is mainly for working with
    Acrobat. It's very important to keep this clear, since you have said
    you only have the free Reader, so 95% of what is in the SDK cannot
    work for you.
    >
    >Simply my questions,
    >1. I don't know which dll to refer in the .Net project to print with. Is the ActiveX folder in product folder?
    Simply, there is no point asking these questions, yet, because you
    have not started on the documentation.
    But let's continue in the SDK forum, where I have posed what seems to
    be a very important question about why print to file at all.
