Save my resume in pdf and then upload into an online application

IPAD 3 G
frankly I am DISGUSTED with the LACK of productivity available on the IPAD.
i bought "THE BEST" so that I wouldn't be disappointed......what a rip off
another writer said it best..... apples a good for CONSUMING MEDIA... surfing, email, etc
BUT if you need to write or edit a document...you might as well pull out your ten year old PC laptop 
Here is MY proof in the form of a question;
HOW DO I SAVE MY RESUME IN A STANDARD FORMAT, DOC, DOCX OR PDF...IN MY IPAD AND THEN
HOW DO I UPLOAD IT TO AN ONLINE JOB APPLICATION.
PLEASE..... if you are going to refer  steps or apps THAT I HAVE TO DOWNLOAD / BUY PLEASE REFERE ......ONLY...
to apps you have personally proofed.....
I can...not....STAND....... this TOY......it is USELESS....AS  A  TOOL FOR PRODUCTIVITY.
TALK ABOUT LOWERED EXPECTATIONS.
so i just tried to select the type of equipment I am using..... AND IPAD 3 G isn't even on the list!!!!!!

There is much to agree with on both sides of this argument. Yes it's just a tablet and not a full blown PC but at the same time, how pathetic it is if a website asks you to upload a document and all the iPad will do is look in the pictures folder? This is so frustrating that's it's actually quite annoying!
So picture the scene, you've got a really important document or CV to upload to a generic website and all the iPad (or iPhone) can do is look straight at your photo's. GREAT, that'll really help me out, ...erm NO!!
As a user we can't change the website and we can't certainly change the OS on the tablet so where does that leave you? That's right, going on a wild goose chase looking for a free app that will change your document into a picture, just so you can upload it. It's just not productive at all. And before you say get Dropbox or Onedrive etc, I already have them. The website your trying to upload to can't get past the 'straight to pictures' problem i mentioned above. Infinite loop ensues...
To be honest, if your iPad or iPhone has Apple Pages on it, why doesn't the device allow you to choose from that as well? That would put an end to this lack of productivity and eventual apple device annoyance. So going back to your original complaint, I agree, I find my iPad to be more of a toy than a work station, and I will only change my mind when Pages is better integrated to be of actual use in Safari and other essential apps.

  • How can I convert a word file into a pdf and then upload to a web site?

    I need to convert a word document into a pdf and then upload it to a web site so people can read it from my
    site. How can I do this? Can anyone please help? I'm only a newbie. Thanking you in anticipation.

    Hi there,
    There's actually an easy streamlined way to do this using Acrobat.com. Here are the steps:
    1. Log in to Acrobat.com with your Adobe ID.
    2. On the left, you'll see a navigation menu that includes the item "Import and Edit". Click that.
    3. Choose the .doc (Word) file you want to convert and upload it to Buzzword.
    4. After making sure that it looks the way you want it to, go to the top menu (still in Buzzword now, not the organizer where all your files live) and click the document menu. There will be an option to "Export" - choose that.
    5. When prompted to select filetype, choose "Adobe PDF" and press OK.
    6. It'll save to your desktop, so now you have to get it into your acrobat.com organizer. To do that, close the Buzzword document by clicking the little "x" in the upper right corner, under the Sign Out button. This'll get you back to your organizer, where you can choose "Import" from the left nav menu again. This time choose your new PDF file.
    7. Select the  file icon in the organizer and click the Share button. Or, select Share  from the file context menu.
    8. Select Allow Anyone With A  Link To Share This Document to set the document to open access, and then  click Copy Embed Code. The necessary HTML code to embed the preview is  copied onto the clipboard.
    9. Open the HTML file and paste  the code into the file. The Flash previewer can display any file type  that you can convert to PDF.
    Hope this helps! Good luck, and let us know how it works out.

  • How do I convert a word document into a pdf and then upload it to a web site

    How do I convert a word document into a pdf and then upload it to a web site so people can read it from my
    site with Dreamweaver 4?. How can I do this? Can anyone please help? I'm only a newbie. Thanking you in anticipation.

    First you need to install a means of printing to pdf from word.  I like cutepdf writer ( http://cutepdf.com/Products/CutePDF/writer.asp ).  Once installed you will print the doc in word and under the printer selection you choose pdf.
    Once you have the file you put it in your local site folders and upload it using Dreamweaver.  Be sure to link to it from a page so users can get to it and I would recommend giving the link a target of _black so it will open in a new window (see the properties inspector in DW).

  • JSP that converts office extensions to pdf and then upload them

    Hi there !
    Im trying to convert office extensions ( .xls, .ppt, etc) to pdf and then upload the resulting file to a server .
    currectly im using the upload solution posted by the user anna_DRA here : http://forums.sun.com/thread.jspa?threadID=672874
    and as for the conversion im using a solution which uses OpenOffice's lib to do the conversion.I'm going to post the codes of my JSP and my HTML ( which just contains the form to get the file to be converted and uploaded).
    observation: the point which is giving me headaches is how to get the file sent by my form, convert it into a File object, use my conversion tool and then deliver it to my upload tool so it can be stored.... i cant seem to get the File object from the request object ( tried getattribute and it returns null....) .
    observation':I do know about and how to use MVC but my boss asked me to make this work with just one JSP or a JSP and a HTML.

    Hello TSN,
    Test Screen Name wrote:
    Picking just one point: PDF -> EPS -> PDF. This could not possibly do more than one page, because EPS is absolutely by definition a single page format. Therefore you must choose a page when exporting PDF to EPS.
    Thanks for your response.
    I was thinking Microsoft... which has allowed multi-page eps files for years. But you're correct, this is normally an unsupported .eps format.
    I solved the problem over the weekend by doing the following:
    1) I removed the suspect OTF font family but despite doing so, the folder still had two 'corrupted' but unused copies of an italic font. They refused to remove so I had to boot into Win7 SAFE mode to remove.
    2) After complete removal of the OTF font family. I reinstalled the OTF font *BUT* only from a different repository (oddly, this other OTF font set is slightly larger per font).
    3) Once installed, I tested with Flare, published and uploaded to Crocodoc SUCCESSFULLY. Yeah!
    I don't have anymore time to test but the questions remain, such as, was it one or more of the following issues:
    a) Flare has a problem handling some OTF fonts or cannot error correct (the way other programs do) for marginal fonts or font errors?
    b) Was it the two corrupted fonts in the Windows/fonts folder?
    c) Was it the slightly different OTF fonts that I am no longer using?
    Take care

  • Can you save a document in Pages and then upload it to a website?

    In other words, can I create a word document in Pages on the iPad and save it somewhere (?) and then go to a site and use its upload feature, ie Browse for a document, and then send it to the site.
    (Right now, the "Choose File" button on the site I want to use is grayed out on my iPod Touch)

    I have the same need as vudean. I don't understand the security issue. If I type a document using Pages or whatever, why can't I upload the document to a web site? I think Apple should make the standard web "file upload control" available to iPad users.
    I understand that there should be some limitations, but it should be possible to upload standard user files. I can upload them to Dropbox, so I don't se the big difference.
    Does Apple read this? If not, where can I propose this feature to them?

  • Can I copy text from a website or Facebook account and paste it into another web application?

    Can someone read my question above and help to resolve. It does not make sense that I cannot copy from the web????

    I've done it. Select your text, copy and then go into the other application and paste it.
    If you want to see what it'll look like you can open the notes app or a word processing app and paste it there, then into your final destination.

  • My hard drive died last week, and I needed to install a new one.  Previously, I was able to save a .doc with text and inserted photo to .pdf and then to .jpg.  Now I can get the .pdf but can't determine what to do to convert to .jpg.  Does anyone know ?

    Rather than do that, which means starting over from scratch, losing all your edits, organisation and so on, why not simply use iPhoto Library Manager to revert the Library to the older version? Easier, less destructive.
    The instructions on that are here
    If you really want to start over: you can access the Originals folder simply by going to your Pictures Folder and finding the iPhoto Library there. Right (or Control-) Click on the icon and select 'Show Package Contents'. A finder window will open with the Library exposed.

  • Do I begin by scanning my illustration in a pdf and then save it as a png on illustrator?

    Do I begin by scanning my artwork as pdf and then saving it as a png on illustrator?

    Depends on what you want to do with the file. Most scanning software can scan as tiff, png, jpg and sometimes pdf. In each of these cases the resulting file is usually a raster file. The exception is software that can convert text into edible text known as OCR, or have some time of auto trace feature for converting artwork into vector objects. This is where pdf would shine compared to the other formats. Tiff is the only remaining one that can also save live editable text.
    As I said once the pdf is imported into illustrator, what format you choose to save from there will depend on what you plan on doing next with it. Ai, pdf, psd or tiff would make good candidates for master files. (A file you can re-edit at a later date with no worry of degradation) And then each of these formats have their pros and cons.

  • When I save a pages document as a pdf and then try to email the document, it loads as an application octet-stream dat file instead of a pdf. What's happening?

    When I save a Pages document as a pdf and then try to email the document, it loads as an application octet-stream dat file instead of a pdf and recipients can't open it. Some load correctly, but about half don't load as a pdf. What's happening?

    Hi mjmonck-
    Which email provider are you using? There are different solutions possible for different providers. Yahoo is having trouble with attachments, outside of any Firefox issue. I've seen a Google user fix this by manually adding the mail URL to their ad block program- which mistakenly perceived the webmail page as an advertisement.
    Hope this helps.

  • Save as Reduced Size PDF and Save as Optimized PDF do not reduce the file size.  What gives?

    Save as Reduced Size PDF and Save as Optimized PDF do not reduce the file size.  What gives?  I used Acrobat 9 to do this for a long time.  I recently received new laptop loaded with with Acrobat 10 and it does not work the same.  I typically scan 8-10 pages of receipts, combine the files in Acrobat, and then optimize to reduce the size so I can upload with my expense report.  Typically, my files were reduced to 200-400 KB.  I have a 2 MB file that will not reduce at all.

    Bernd, thank you for your attempt to help but the option dialog windows do not contain the same options.  There are numerous other posts on this forum about this issue and there is no answer.  Clearly, there is an issue.  I have submitted this issue to our internal help desk.

  • Print to pdf and then email...

    I frequently print a document to pdf and then email it as an attachment.  The print dialog box allows me to save as pdf or email as pdf.  I would like a print plugin that does both actions - allows me to name and save the pdf to a specified location and then adds it as an attachment to a new email.  Any ideas?

    Create a Print Plug in Automator, such as the below, which does exactly as you want. When you set it up, make sure you click the Options that I clicked and this will allow you to name the PDF, and save it wherever you want to.
    I named my Print Plugin "PDF File & Email"

  • I have a separate apple id and my daughter bought a song using my ID rather than hers.  Now I've got this song that I don't care for and have no use for.  Is there a way to get it to her ID short of burning it on to CD and then uploading it to her phone?

    I have a separate apple id and my daughter bought a song using my ID rather than hers. She was playing on my computer and bought it, thinking it would download to her phone through the cloud. Now I've got this song that I don't care for and have no use for.  Is there a way to get it to her ID short of burning it on to CD and then uploading it to her phone?

    sure pretty simple.  make a backup of your current settings
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1766?viewlocale=en_US
    then restore device from old backup you need pics off of
    then import pics to computer
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4083
    you may need to save pics to camera roll first
    then restore the new backup and sync pics back to phone via itunes
