Action to add Annotations to Multipage document

I have several hundred multiple page documents that I need to add annotations to. The annotation needs to go in the same place on every page of each document. It will be a rectangle or polygon of a solid color. Is there a way this can be done? I have acrobat pro 11

You can do this with a script in an Action. Here's a link to the documentation for the doc.addAnnot method that you'd use: http://livedocs.adobe.com/acrobat_sdk/9.1/Acrobat9_1_HTMLHelp/JS_API_AcroJS.88.434.html
See the following tutorial for important information about the coordinate spaces: http://acrobatusers.com/tutorials/auto_placement_annotations

Question about TextEdit. How do i add a custom header to a multipage document? For example, "Smith, page 2", "Smith, page 3', etc. I can do it in Microsoft Word, but cant figure out how in TextEdit.

How do i add custom headers to a multipage document in TextEdit? i need to add a custom header in upper right of page, for example: "Smith, page 2", "Smith, page 3" etc. The add header setting in Textedit file-print only adds date : time in upper right, with "Page 1 of 3" on bottom right.
Thank you.

It's just a text editor not a word processor.

SharePoint 2013 : Add annotation to document library item

Hi all,
Is there a possibility to add annotation to library items. Example, I am sharing a document library item to a user then the user add an annotation and share to another user. The other user also should add his/her comments on the item.
Can anyone help me how to achieve this?
Many thanks & regards
Vinay

We've done this in the past using a Rich Text Field in the metadata of the document. You can set it up so it Appends new entries to the bottom of the field instead of replacing the existing content. When a user edits the metadata they see a
blank field. When they save it their comments are added to the bottom with their name and a timestamp. We've used it primarily on issues lists, but it should work on a document also.

Add annotations with JavaScript

Hello,
I'm currently writing a JavaScript function (that will be executed in a JSP page) to add annotations to PDF files. So far, so good. Actually everything is working as intended except one thing: the position of the annotation. Somehow, it always ends up at position 0,0 (bottom left) of the document with a size of 0, but I know it's there because I can see it in the list of comments. Here is my JavaScript function:
function annotPdf(src)
     // Create the ActiveXObject
     var pdf = new ActiveXObject('AcroExch.PDDoc');
     // Variables
     var pdfJS;
     var annot;
     var printParams;
     var page;
     var rectSize = new Array();
     // Open PDF
     pdf.Open(src);
     // Determine where to place the annotation
     page = pdf.AcquirePage(0);
     page = page.GetSize();
     rectSize[0] = 25;
     rectSize[1] = page.y - 50;
     rectSize[2] = page.x - 25;
     rectSize[3] = page.y - 25;
     // Get the JSObject
     pdfJS = pdf.GetJSObject();
     // Add the annotation
     pdfJS.addAnnot({page: 0, type: 'FreeText', rect: rectSize, author: 'Automated', contents: 'Test'});
     // Printing
     printParams = pdfJS.getPrintParams();
     printParams.interactive = -1;
     printParams.firstPage = 0;
     printParams.pageHandling = printParams.constants.handling.fit;
     // pdfJS.print(printParams);
     // Save instead of printing for testing
     pdf.Save(1, "C:/Tempo/test.pdf");
     pdf.Close();
Again, everything works. The annotation is created, but not positioned (as if rect was not doing its job). Now, if I open the same PDF document with Adobe Acrobat 9 and go into the JavaScript Debugger and put:
this.addAnnot({page: 0, type: 'FreeTest', rect: [25,742,1199,767], author: 'Automated', contents: 'Test'});
It correctly adds the annotation to the position I want. My theory is that passing an array with Javascript to add an annotation is bugged, because I can do the exact same thing with VB (Pass an array of Integers to rect) and it works perfectly!
Anyone could help me find a way to make my function work?
Thanks, Rukk.

Oops, my bad. It's installed on client not server. My mistake.
As I said, the ActiveX has no problem to instantiate. That part works. As I said in my first post, I can open my PDF file, add an annotation to it, print it, etc. The problem I have is that I can't decide where to put my annotation (with the rect property). Please refer to my first post.
Again, thanks for your answer.
Edit:
I had to retype it, because when I did copy & paste it added lot of extra blank line (that I wasn't able to delete) and formatting was a bit weird.
It' a typo.

Add annotation with Adobe Reader

Hello,
We have gotten the RIKLA from Adobe.It is said that PDPageAddNewAnnot will work on any PDF document which has been Reader-Enabled for commenting.But I found it can't work.Is there other method to add annotation? Or maybe I use the wrong method.
Best regards!

Thanks all.
I can make the transformation now. But there is still a big problem. After add annotation using COS API, how to notify Acrobat to redraw? Each time I had to minimize the Acrobat to make the annotation show.
Leonard Rosenthol said there are some functions to do that. I have tried some function such as PDPageNotifyContentsDidChangeEx,also used these function:
AVDoc avDoc = AVAppGetActiveDoc();
AVPageView page = AVDocGetPageView(avDoc);
AVPageViewInvalidateRect(page, NULL);
AVPageViewEndOperation (page);
AVPageViewInvalidateRect(page, NULL);
AVPageViewDrawNow(page);
,but still can't . Can you tell me how to let the annotation show immediately?
Best Regards!

Since upgrading to Mavericks I can only print one page of a multipage document.

Ever since I upgraded to Mavericks my HP Deskjet 6840 color printer will only print 1 page from a multipage document at a time no matter how I set the job. And sometimes it prints the same page even thought I set the parameters for a different page. I have the latest driver. I can't find any solution on the HP site or elsewhere on the internet.

The driver should be part of OS X, not something you download.
This link shows supported HP printers (6800 but no 6840).
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3669#HP
I suggest you delete the printer, turn it off, restart your system, and turn the printer on and add it back in.

How to add a record in document library without upload file.

Hi,
how to add a record in document library without upload file?
Is it possible? I want to create a folders in Document Library but inside folders i do not want to upload a file instead of just i want to create a record. I will map my local file path to the records.
Can anyone help me on it?
Thanks & Regards
Poomani Sankaran

Hello Sankaran,
document library is to upload documents, without document you will not be able to add a record or Item to it.
for your requirement you can use a list and enable folders within the list and maintain the local path of the file as an item in list.

Cannot add data to unknown document?

Hi there,
There are several computers working on a server and two other employees were working on the same indesign document at the same time, causing both of them to suddenly crash and then the file became corrupted. When I try and open the document I get the error message 'cannot add data to unknown document'. I still get the same message even when trying to open the file from my desktop. I am using CS5.5 and am on an imac....
I have tried to find a solution to this in the threads, but so far no luck! Have also tried to call Adobe but they were no help . Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
E.Coe

First off, two people shouldn't have the ability to work on the same file at the same time. That was a bug in the initial release of CS5 or CS5.5 (not sure which) but it was fixed in the first patch. If you haven't updated to 7.5.3 you need to do that to prevent future problems and take advantage of other bug fixes.
As far as your file, it doesn't sound all that hopeful. Try opening as a copy. If that doesn't work you may have to rebuild, or if more cost effective, use the Markzware recovery service: Bad InDesign or Quark File Recovery Submission Form

CS3: how to create action to add fixed text of foreground color, etc.

I'm trying to create an action and/or brush preset(?) that will:
1) Add a fixed text string in the forground color, consistent font, size, etc.
2) Apply a consistent Layer Style -> Bevel and Emboss setting
3) Allow me to move the text to whatever position
4) Change text layer opacity
5) Flatten
At some point in the past when searching the internet I came upon a description of how to create a brush preset (I think that was it) that did at least most of this, but somehow I seem to have lost the preset and don't know how to recreate it.
thanks,
Mike

First it is And/or you can create both or one or the other. For in actions and scripts you can not automate the use of a brush.
1) Add a fixed text string in the forground color, consistent font, size, etc.
    Easy if all images are the same size and a little more work if image size vary for you will need to scale the image.
    If you want to scale the image back to it original scale at the end of the action you need to use a little script in the action. .
2) Apply a consistent Layer Style -> Bevel and Emboss setting
    Again easy if aoo images are the same size not posible if images vary in size for many setting in layer style are in absolute pixel size.
    However layer styles will look good for a range of images sizes like Print Size or thunbnail size or small web sizes.
    Therfore I create actions for print size images and work full size. if I need smaller image I work full size and resize before output.
3) Allow me to move the text to whatever position
     This is quite easy to do in an action you simply add an interactive transform step after adding the text layer.
     However this is not a good idea if you want to batch the action. Interactive sort of defeats batch.
     With an action it is easy to posion a layer.
4) Change text layer opacity
    Simply change the added text layers opacity and or fill and it will be recorded.
5) Flatten
    Simple just record it I don't like actions that flatten though. If you give your action to some and the use it on an image the did a lot of work on the may get very upset the your acrion flatten all their work.
Have a look at my Crafting Actions Package it cantains a sample action that add a text copyright layer to any size image.

Can I add a downloadable pdf document to my epub?

Can I add a downloadable pdf document to my epub?

Yes. If you want the pdf file to download immediately when the link is selected and not be displayed in the browser, zip/compress the pdf file (Control (right)-Click on the pdf file and select Compress from the contextual menu) and link to it in the Inspector/Link/Hyperlink pane witn the Link To: A File option.
A second option is to zip the pdf file and upload it manually to your website server. Then link to it in the same preference pane but use An External Page option. The URL would be http://URL TO FILE ON SERVER/File _Name.pdf.zip

How to add custom field in Documents Tab of PO Header ?

Dear SRM Friends,
This is a challenging task as an ABAPer to confront to..
We are in the midst of a requirement where we have to add a custom field in the PO Header. But the requirement is to add the field in Documents Tab in PO Header Data as found in the following path of SRM Webpage :
Operational Purchaser > Purchase Orders > Process Purchase Order > Select a PO > Header Data > Documents.
As guided by "Note 672960 - User-defined fields 2" , on executing all the steps of the note the field is getting added, but in the Basic Data Tab of the PO. But this doesnt meet the client requirement.
Anybody having some solution to this, shall be greatly awarded.
Thanks in advance,
Vikas.

Hi Vikas,
You can define a Text ID in Header data with F4 help. But the list of values will be fixed, but configurable. This will exactly solve your problem. This will be quite simple and straight forward solution with no custom developments.
Please Navigate to
SAP Implementation Guide -> Supplier Relationship Management -> SRM Server
-> Cross-Application Basic Settings -> Text Schema
1. Define Text Types
Select BBP_PD and double click text id. Add a new text id here.
2. Define Text Schema
Select PO and add the newly created text id and set required parameters.
3. Define Fixed Values for Texts
Select your PO transaction type and maintain the required values for F4 help / drop down.
Hope this would solve your problem.
Regards
Kathirvel

IDCS3 error message "Cannot add data to unknown document"

I am using a Mac and last week I opened an ID document from my flash drive, worked on it, saved it back to my flash drive and reopened it just to make sure it saved right. Now when I try to open it, it says "Cannot add data to unknown document". All the permissions look fine. Is it a file problem? Is there anything I can do to recover it?

That is a very dangerous workflow. NEVER work off of removable media.
Always copy to your harddrive and work there.
That said, try copying the file to your harddrive now and working on that.

You will have to first extract the video file from the DVD. If it's not encrypted, use MPEG Streamclip
<http://www.squared5.com/>
Then you can play the video and subtitle files with VLC
<http://www.videolan.org
or QuickTime Player if you install Perian
<http://www.perian.org>
Make sure the video and subtitle files have the same name (except for the .srt extension).
