Acrobat 9.4 install settings for base Image.

We are creating an image that we can use to clone 500 systems. The OS is Windows 7 64 bit and we have Acrobat Reader 9.4 installed, we would like to set the Save As and Save Text default file locations. Looks like the default location for Save Text is C:\windows\system32. How can the default save as location be set on our image so when the user gets the new system and does a Save Text function they are not going to "by mistake" save the file where they can't find it.
There has to be a registry setting that remembers the last save location we can tweak, no? It's easy for most of us to simply change the location but end users are not always capable of changing locations or figuring out where they saved a file. If we can set the default save location we can alleviate potential calls to the helpdesk or missing "BILLABLE" work.
Thanks in advance for any helpful suggestions.

Hi Ed,
Whenever I have this type of question, I use Regshot to take a before and after shot of the registry after exercising the feature. I could be wrong, but it looks like to me that the save as location is handled by Windows. This is the key that changed for me:

If you find out I'm incorrect, please post so here.
thanks,

The value should be set for Base image URL and Image file directory

Hi experts
Now customer has the following issue.
XML Publisher concurrent request, using RTF layout template with LOGO, does not generate the LOGO for Excel output.
but in output formats PDF, it is shown normally.
from the debug log, we can found the following error message
======
[051812_054716051][][ERROR] Could not create an image. Set html-image-dir and html-image-base-uri correctly.
======
so I tell the customer to do the following action plan.
1. in XML Publisher Administrator resp > Administration expand the HTML Output section.
2a. enter a value for 'Base image URI'
2b. enter a value for 'Image file directory'
Customer set the value as following and retest this issue,but he found the issue is not solved.
Base image URI: /u01/r12/ebssnd/apps/apps_st/comn/java/classes/oracle/apps/media/XXSLI_SONY_LIFE_LOGO.gif
Image file directory: /u01/r12/ebssnd/apps/apps_st/comn/java/classes/oracle/apps/media
I verified 'Base image URI' and 'Image file directory' settings:
1) Change output type to HTML.
2) Click the Preview.
but the image is correctly displayed on HTML, so I think the issue is caused by user's uncorrectly setting of the base image URL and/or image file directory
but could anyone give me some advice on which value should be set for Base image URL and Image file directory

First thing to do is to edit the post and use some tags to format the code as it is unreadable and too much!
Read the FAQ (https://forums.oracle.com/forums/help.jspa) to find out how to do this.
Next we need to know the jdev version you are using!
As the code is generated I would first try to generate it again after the db change.

How to add MS Office add-in from inside a Thinapp 5 virtual application to a MS Office 2013 suite that is installed on a base image

Hi,
We have the following solution:
VMware Horizon View 5.3.1
Non-persistent Linked-clone pool with delete VM after logoff
Windows 8.1 Update 1 Enterprise 64 bit
MS Office 2013 32-bit installed on image
Thinapps registered for each user from logonscript with thinreg.exe command. Thinapps is located on a network share
Native Windows roaming profiles with appdata/roaming, appdata/local without appdata/locallow(persona management does not support Windows 8.1 in View 5.3.1)
This is our issue:
We have a 3rd party application with a couple Thinapp entrypoints(exe files) and in the Thinapp package process we also installed Office addins. We tested that the Add-ins was opened inside Outlook, Word and Powerpoint before post installation scan.
The problem is that the add-ins is not added to Office 2013 before or after the Thinapp is started on a test client.
I have tried several changes in the package.ini and virtual filesystem attributes(no registry changes yet):
Package.ini:
ChildProcessEnvironmentExceptions=WINWORD.EXE;EXCEL.EXE;POWERPNT.EXE;OUTLOOK.EXE;
ChildProcessEnvironmentDefault=External
ChildProcessEnvironmentExceptions=excel.exe;outlook.exe;powerpnt.exe;winword.exe
ChildProcessEnvironmentDefault=Virtual
VirtualizeExternalOutOfProcessCOM=0
DirectoryIsolationMode=Merged
RegistryIsolationMode=Merged
I have also read that you could make entrypoints to the locally installed Office 2013, but I get errors on the build process. ref. link: http://edwinfriesen.nl/content/?p=105#comments
The best thing would be if the add-ins were added in the logon process together with thinreg.exe, but if that is not supported, the add-ins must be added to Office either in a custom Office shortcut/entry point or after starting the Thinapp virtual application.
Remember that the application needs to registered every times the user logon, because we use a non-persistent View pool.
I would really appreciate if somebody could tell me how to add Office add-ins from inside a Thinapp virtual application/package to a locally installed MS Office 2013 suite on a Windows "base" image?
We do not want to add the whole Office suite to the Thinapp virtual package and not add the add-ins trough GPO,SCCM etc.

What about the COM object parameters in package.ini ?
We can live with scripting in logon or changed logon scripts etc.
And you don't no need to lock in the project files.
From package.ini documentation:
ObjectTypes Parameter
The ObjectTypes parameter specifies a list of virtual COM object types that are visible to other applications in
the physical environment. You can use scripts, such as VBScripts, to call objects that start captured applications.
An object type is registered to only one native or virtual application at a time. If you install Office 2003 on the
native machine and want to use a virtual Office 2007 package, you must determine whether to have the virtual
or native application handle the object types.
If you want the virtual Office 2007 to handle the object types, you can leave the ObjectTypes setting in the
Package.ini file, build the package, and register it using the thinreg.exe utility. If you want the native Office
2003 to handle the object types, you must remove the ObjectTypes setting from the Package.ini file before
building and registering the package.
You cannot add random entries to the ObjectTypes parameter.
You can only remove entries that were generated by the capture process.
Example: Starting a Virtual Application When a COM Object is Created
If a script or a native application creates an Excel.Application COM object or other COM objects listed in the
ObjectTypes parameter, ThinApp starts the virtual package.
[Microsoft Office Excel 2007.exe]
ObjectTypes=Excel.Application;Excel.Application.12;Excel.Chart;
Excel.Macrosheet;Excel.Sheet; Excel.Workspace

Acrobat v9.5: Insufficient data for an image

Hi,
There are several cases where I have scanned in a document on a Konica Minolta c203 or c451 and have been unable to open the file in Acrobat v9.5. The document fails to open with "Insufficient data for an image" error. I'm using Windows XP sp3.
As a test, I used a original install of Acrobat 9.0. With this installation, the document opened without any problems. When I had Acrobat update to 9.2, I was no longer able to open the same file. I received the "Insufficient data for an image" error. I performed the next up to v9.5 and still have the same issue.
I've read the other entries about this error, but there does not seem to be an agreement on how to fix it other than possible downgrading to v8.x or upgrading to v10.x. Is this the only option? Any other ideas?
Thanks,
-J

You scanned to what kind of file? Opening a file does not say anything about the format of the scanned image.

Copy/Paste Develop Settings for multiple images

I'm trying to update some settings on multiple images. In Develop mode, I start by making the corrections to a single image, and then click the "Copy ..." button. I then select multiple images in the Filmstrip and click "Paste". This works just fine, but only on the 1st image/highlighted image, and not the whole selection. Am I doing something wrong here? Shouldn't I be able to update multiple images, at once, like a batch process?
Thanks in advance.

Hi Lee Jay
How do you know this is on purpose? It seems like a bug to me.
See this thread: http://forums.adobe.com/message/2951457
If your reasoning was correct, how come the settings do paste to the entire target selection and not just the active image when the toggle in the lower right hand side of the screen is switched to Auto Sync?
Would love to hear more of your insight, because this is really confusing me.

Need suggestion on Color Profile settings for printing image

I am trying to print the image below on a Xerox Docucolor 242. Im trying to get a better understanding of profiles and all that, which I THINK I do now.
Under Color Settings in Indesign, I have under Working Spaces, RGB is set to my monitor brand and type and CMYK is set to my exact printer. I have both of the Color Management Policies set to Off.
When I print the RGB version of this image, everything looks ok except for a very faded look. Probably noticed mostly because of all the black background that is used. When I print the CMYK version of it, it seems to print nice and dark but there is a strong white halo effect showing around both the flames which doesnt show on the screen or the RGB printout.
Anyone know what settings are causing the faded look in the RGB printout and the halo effects in the CMYK printout?

As others have said, this is a complex process, but one that is solvable.
I agree with others the RGB profile should NOT be the monitor but the profile of the original image. For most midrange cameras this will be sRGB or Adobe RGB depending on the settings in the Camera when the images was captured. It is NOT arbitary and choosing the wrong profile will have a large affect on the image.
The CMYK profile for the printer is more complex. There are two steps in calibrating and profiling a Xerox printer. First the calibration, or linearisation, sets the printer to a known state that can be repeated. This is best done with a spectrophotometer and not the CalorCal software provided by Xerox which uses a known colour chart scanned from the glass of the copier. The glass method of calibration does not calibrate correctly at the black end of the curve actually turns over reducing the available black, and is due to reflections from the glass. Calibration is normally done daily.
When the calibration has been completed a full ICC profile is created by printing a profile chart of some 2000 colours and reading this with the spectrophotometer. This is only valid for a calibrated printer and for the type of paper used. Different papers will require different profiles. It is a once only operation.
Another thing to watch out for is how your RGB images are being converted to CMYK. There is a setting both in the Creative suite and in the printer to set the black compensation. What you want to achieve is the same black as in the original image. In the CMYK case this will be printed as a combination of black toner pus a mixture of CMY to incread the density. The profile takes care of this for you.
Your description of weak blacks suggests that the black me be being printed as pure black toner.

Registry Settings for Exporting Image resolution (RDC XI R2)

The following document describes registry settings to control exported image resolution:
[http://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/boc/go/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/30407084-c51d-2b10-1f81-813488350e6f?quicklink=index&overridelayout=true|http://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/boc/go/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/30407084-c51d-2b10-1f81-813488350e6f?quicklink=index&overridelayout=true]
However, that document is old.
Where can we find instructions for XI R2 RDC applications?

There are several informal & conflicting suggestions that one can find via internet searches. For example:
Add the following registry entries under HKEY_CURRENT_USER
-> Software -> Seagate Software -> Crystal Reports Designer Component -> Export
BitMapMagnifDenominator = 4 (DWord)
BitMapMagnifNumerator = 5 (DWord)
I'm looking for a definitive document/instruction from SAP.
One of my customers just reported that the following settings work:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER
-> Software -> Business Objects -> Suite 11.5 -> Crystal Reports Designer Component -> Export
BitMapMagnifDenominator = 1 (DWord)
BitMapMagnifNumerator = 4 (DWord)

Rasterize settings for placed images?

How do I place images in AI to make sure that they come in at a high quality? Is there some setting that controls the rasterize settings?
Thanks.

Placed images are placed at whatever resolution the original file is at. You can't directly control the ppi of any placed image.
If you are using raster effects (drop shdows, glows, etc) or are specifically rasterizing content within AI, you'll want to set the Document Raster Effects Settings (in the Effects menu) to "high" or 300ppi.

Set image colour settings for multiple images

In my workflow I place (Adobe)RGB images into InDesign. PDF export takes care of the RGB to CMYK conversion (convert to destination with preserve numbers).
However this uses the default rendering intent for every conversion: relative colorimetric.
For images, i want to use perceptual.
Is there a way to quickly select all images and change the rendering intent?
All the images have the same ojbect style. Unfortunately i could not find a way to couple the rendering intent to the object style.

You can do it it via Assign Profiles...
It can also be scripted, something like this AppleScript:
tell application "Adobe InDesign CS6"
    tell active document
        set imgs to all graphics
        repeat with x from 1 to count imgs
            if class of item x of imgs is image then
                try
                    set image rendering intent of item x of imgs to perceptual
                end try
            end if
        end repeat
    end tell
end tell

Export Settings for uploading images for albums

I can not upload my files to an online site to design a photo album. Apparently they are too large. Can someone send a screen print of how the export should be set to produce a quality 10 x 10 album and will upload in a reasonable time frame? Thanks so much!

I would have to guess, as I don't know your upload speeds wherever you are located. You also don't say what your need for quality is, or what use these photo albums will be put to. And if you are a professional photographer, I suppose the needs for quality are higher than for me (I am not a professional photographer).
So, my starting point in the Export dialog would be to set the Quality slider to 70. If the quality isn't good enough, try higher. If the upload speeds are too long, try lower.
Sorry, I can't give you a screen capture, as I am at work at the moment.

ACS SE base image UPgrade

HI,
We have upgraded the ACS SE 1112 as following.
Cisco Secure ACS : 4.0.1.42 to 4.1.1.23
Appliance Management Software:4.0.1.42to 4.1.1.23
Appliance Base Image needs to upgrade from 3.3.1.8 to 4.1.1.4 but we are not able to download the package at download centre as it is not available.
Kindly suggest for base image upgrade.
Regards,

It should work as long as you don't miss anything, and yes you are supposed to install an agent that matches the version you are running. You might want to go ahead and put the latest updates on the ACS before you put it into operation. The process is kind of different than other updates. You might want to read my other ACS posts. I recently killed one of my ACS boxes because I did not install the CSUPdate cumulative patch before installing the lastest patch of the same rev level. (i.e. read directions carefully). Make sure you do an FTP backup before updating the software. If anything goes wrong you could have to reimage the box. There were lots of bug fixes in the updates since 4.1.1.

IPhoto '11 Saved Slideshow not saving settings for individual slides

Please, need help in iPhoto '11 with Saved Slideshows. I will try rephrasing my question as I received no answers when I posted yesterday. I create my Saved Slideshow by choosing File>New>Slideshow. It then shows up at the bottom of my Source List under Slideshows. I am trying to have individual settings for each slide: timing, transition, and Ken Burns effect. I check each box in the "This Slide" menu and type in what I want. When I exit the Saved Slideshow the first two settings are saved and as I left them, but the KB box is no longer checked. It works fine when I click "Preview." I have carefully read all the forum discussions dating back to last fall and see that I am not the only one with the problem. Like others I noticed that the KB effect won't "stick" only on certain slides, mostly Landscape images. KB settings for Portrait images seem to "hold." I'm not a novice in creating Saved Slideshows. I've done this in iPhoto '08 with no problem at all. I reported this to Apple as a possible bug. I feel like there is now no way I can make the slideshow I want to burn to a DVD to share with family and view on a TV. As far as I can tell you can't do KB effects for individual slides in the latest version of iDVD without having made a Saved Slideshow in iPhoto first. Can anyone help me? I am so frustrated.

I am 99% sure that this has something to do with how NEF files work. If I understand them correctly, the original raw data is stored in one portion of the file and then versions of the file are stored within it (these are the 'versions' that you can make in NX2). The versions are just whatever mathematical transformations are applied to the raw data to get the version of the image that you want to see. It is a brilliant way to store information and many versions of photos (different sizes of crops, b/w, colour, sepia, etc...) in their highest possible resolution without taking up an inordinate amount of disk space. The raw data are huge, but each version only adds a tiny bit to the size.
The problem with iPhoto is that it can only see the raw data - not the metadata containing all of the transformations to get the edited version of the photo. This means that if you load the photos into the iphoto library as nef files and then edit them with an external editor (i.e. NX2), the files will be edited, and when you open them again in NX2 from iPhoto, then you'll see the edits, but the edited version will not be visible in iPhoto. If you work with NX2 and iPhoto (as I do), you basically need to save your edited versions of files as .jpg or .tiff and then re-import them into iPhoto. It is a bit of a pain, but I am sure that it could be fixed in a future version of iPhoto.
Cheers.

Help with print settings for Panoramas

Hi,
I use an Epson 2880 and I am trying to figure out the print settings for doing an 11 x 34in panorama print on 13" roll paper from Aperture 3.0.3. I finally got it to do one print properly, but the setup was totally counter intuitive and I can't reproduce it. I tried using "Custom" Paper size and setting it to 13" x 36", then using the landscape mode and setting the Image Size to 11 x 34". Any way I did this ended up with the image printing the wrong way on the paper. So I went back and picked "Roll" paper. This leaves only one field to fill in, which I presume is the paper width (it really didn't make this obvious in the dialogue.). Then I set the mode to Portrait, and made sure that the settings for the Image size were 11 x 34. It then printed fine. But when I went back to print another file, even though I had saved the settings, now I am presented with only one box for specifying the Image Size and there is no way to get it right again. HELP! The settings for this kind of print in Photoshop is also counterintuitive, but when you get it set right, and you know the settings, no problem reproducing it. I think maybe there is a bug in AP3 with regard to this sort of setup.

It now only allows me three options and the style I have been using for the last year is not there. How do I add additional options and get my preferred signature style back?

Hi Amanda ,
Which version of Acrobat are you using?
Which signature style are you talking about?
You can go ahead and try uninstalling and reinstalling it and see if that works for you .
Use the cleaner tool to uninstall it .Here is the link.

Acrobat XI Pro Install via CCP Packager for Enterprise unuseable - tips for the unitiated

Well, after at least six weeks of trying to script and package Acrobat XI via the CCP packager for enterprise (Windows 7 X64) I have learnt many home truths which I thought I would share with the unitiated. This process, from the point of view of an IT admin who has to mass deploy this application to 680 PC's as part of an updated SOE has been the most painful scripting process I have ever found of any package (we successfully deploy Office, and Autodesk apps!). Not only that, but our entire State technical colleges have all purchased the same version. This will be affecting IT staff across a huge area, perhaps worldwide. Below are some some facts relating to this that I will share so others do not have to trawl the minefiled of dead-ends and confusion that is Adobe forums/official documentation. Apologies for not finding direct links to all of the below just yet but I've run out of time as we now have MANUALLY install Acrobat XI on all of these machines. When I get time I will post some of the links:
Facts:
Acrobat XI and Lightroom are NOT "CC" packages. Therefore they rely on a spearate serial numbers to install standalone without another major Adobe product (eg Photoshop) to be installed and then run first. Otherwise they will run in trial mode. If your organistaion is wanting to install these products I highly recommend seeing if Adobe can provide you with these.
Without the use of serial number for Acrobat XI this almost renders the Customisation Wizard effectively useless, none of the silent install switch will work with "Offline Exception"
Yes, one Adobe employee notes that you must install a major package before Acrobat but as the aoplogies for not fixing this were posted last August, we are still in the quandry of not having any useable fix except for the ridiculous "Exceptions" file and Exceptions installer.
If you run the Build and/or execeptions msi's it installs Acrobat twice, gold Adobe, gold.
http://forums.adobe.com/message/6039529#6039529 - look at this for a working script for Photoshop etc, it's great.Thanks to http://forums.adobe.com/people/PetriRiihikallio for posting this. However, alas, it cannot silently install Acrobat correctly (thus far).
It appears that the msi builder for CCP for enterprise is fatally flawed. I have never had as much problem with installing msi's - ever. For example, I have had to re-package the msi multiples times and many times simply running the msi will fail.
The idea that all major installs have to install the 32 bit version AND the 64 bit version is riduclous, enough said.
http://blogs.adobe.com/acrolaw/2013/02/acrobat-xi-deployment-guide-for-large-firms/ this guide may be useful for people who have been given a separate serial number.
http://helpx.adobe.com/acrobat/kb/known-issues-acrobat-xi-reader.html another useful link
I think for the time being I have now wasted enough time trying to tear my hair out with this. I will be waiting for Adobe to announce Acrobat and Lightroom CC. this will enable the correct deployment of a single app without having the bloat my SOE with unnecessary applications that most staff rarely use. Ahhh, I love a good manual install via VNC/RDP, don't you?

Hi Waltpenner and others, yes it can be very confusing and writing script after script got me even more confused.
Now, the story continues, after 6+ hours on the phone with Adobe Support...
When you install Adobe Acrobat XI it asks you to install the C++ Redistributable package and this is where the msi will STOP INSTALLING. even though the MSI says "complete"
Now you think to yourself, OK, I'll write a script to install this msi package no problems, solved.
Nope, the msi for Acrobat Pro XI will Still Halt even if you write this into the script along with halt no err or something similar in your code.
So what do you do?
When you create your msi in Cloud Packager, even though this feels completely against your better judgement tick the box under conflicting Process entitled "Ignore Conflicts and Continue installations" This will (finally) allow you to run the msi. Please see the wonderful deployment script above, which you may still need to edit to your needs (I did) - which I post once it's working perfectly.
You could then install the C++ redist from Microsoft at a later date ----> On that note however (thanks Microsoft for this gem) the Visual C++ redist is an msi for download, but it's actually a zip file calling an exe inside it. I suggest using the App Deploy Repackager to help you change registry entries if you need to install this, but choose your favourite tool (and no I'm not talking about that work colleague you don't like
Note: You will need to install this for certain features of Acro Pro XI to function, most of which relates to sever functions of Acrobat. I will post the exact reasons when I find them. Under pressure to get this deployed, I have not deployed this pckage as yet. Also, I'm unsure how Visual C++ will affect other major apps across my enterprise just yet.
Things to still consider
Acrobat still installs twice in the program directory (1.7GB nd 1.8GB respectively)
As all of the other CC packages are quite easy to install, Adobe needs to provide better service to it's enterprise customers by creating a proper version of Acrobat and Lightroom which is Acrobat CC and Lightroom CC, not version numbers tacked onto their new Cloud Service.
As for the above point I would still recommend creating the smallest msi packages you can, as large msi's that install a number of Apps (eg all of the web/image editing apps) take forever and quite often exhibit install errors
The amount of time I've spent on this is ridiculous, and we've had to package everything from Office to Autocad.
The amount of bandwidth I've chewed up is excessive, with package re-creation (download) of all the products probably about 100GB - however the ability to edit these packages with updates with the CCP is a good step forward.
Using the CCP through a proxy is horrendous, and complicated with the amount of exception through the servers you have to prvide (even then it rarely works).
The MSI packager still needs quite alot of work. As Petri states why he had to write a script like this when Adobe could have done the same thing is beyond him.
Adobe needs to trawl it's forum posts and take out the many false leads and dead ends provided by it's experts.
When I Think of anything else, or wite more scipts I'll let you all know.
Cheers,
