Add Metadata to every document's page

Hello
I'm very new to XMP SDK but I would like to understand how I can add simple metadata to every page of pdf document.
Thanks
Stefano

Venkat,
When you create a Webcenter application in JDev, all the needed taskflows and libraries will be added to your project. In the resource palette you can browse the taskflows of webcenter. One of them is the page creation task flow. If you drop that to your page, it will show as a button. When you press the button at runtime you will see the popup to create a page.
This page is stored in the MDS. In order to retrieve the page you need the datasource for the pages. When you drop the create page taskflow on your page, the datasource will also be created and you will see it in the datacontrol panel of your application.
This way you can create a table that lists all the created pages.
You can also create the page using your own code using the page service
For more information about that taskflow and runtime creating of page see following page:
http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E12839_01/webcenter.1111/e10148/jpsdg_page_service.htm
Part 7.8 describes te API.
Adding and removing of portlets is done using the composer component in webcenter.
If you however are not happy with the composer and you want to create your own component that manages the portlet.... That is some other business....
I can ellaborate a bit on that if you wish to have more information on creating your own component but normally the composer should do the trick.

How can i add filename on a document in pages 5.1 ?

I am allways using a template to make documents, that I save under different names. How can I add the (changed) filename in the footer of a saved document ?
It is important to me to print the filename on document, to find and edit it on my mac later.
In MS Word it is easy to automaticaly add filenames, path, author and other filedata to the document. I can't find how to do that automatically in Pages templates.
I saw earlyer answers to this question on this community, but they don't work as I expect, or only on earlier versions of pages..... I trust there is an easy way to do this.
Can someone help me please ?

That function, present in "Pages 09" (i.e. Pages 4.3) , was not included in Pages 5.0-5.1. (Nor were nearly 100 other such features, from mail merge and bookmarks to non-contiguous text selection, 2-up page viewing and the ability to set alternating left/right margins, headers & footers.Version 5.1 is also notably buggy. One work around, or partial work around, is to click the file name at the top of the window document. You can then select the filename, copy it and paste it whereever you like. As far as I can see, however, there is no way to include the path: all you get is the filename and extension.

How do I add metadata in Pages 5.2?

I can't seem to find any Information tab in the Inspector like there used to be, where you can add metadata to your document -- Author, Title, Description, Keywords. Has this function disappeared?

I have voiced my opinioin that Pages 5.2 is so flawed that is unacceptable as a commercial product. 5.2 contains so many problems that is it useless for our purposes. We have removed the app from our machines.
Another reason for not using Pages 5.2 is that we have found no way to turn off auto saving. Consequently, if a document from Pages 4 is opened in 5.2, it will immediately be autosaved as a 5.2 file. This means the file cannot be opened in Pages 4, and the backwards export function in 5.2 does not work.
Bottom line, Pages 5.2 is a hazard to use. Pages 5 also lacks a very large number of features that were removed when Pages 5.2 was developed. Many of these were highly valuable.
As of now, we recommend that users remove this app from their machines and drop back to Pages 4.
Furthermore, we recommend that the word about all of this be spread as far and wide and as quickly as possible. We don't care about Apple, where some people should be fired on account of 5.2 We do care about fellow users of Pages 4. That means spreading the word about defects and risks associated with usinig 5.2
Some on this forum have pointed to varioius resources that provide technical solutions for problems that have been discussed here. These pointers have been helpful.
However, as a veteran of the software business let me say this. Under no circumstances should it be necessary to have to consult technical forums and read obscure Apple documents to figure out work arounds in what is supposed to be a finished, commercial grade product like Page. This applies to inexperieced users AND professionals.
Pages 5.2 is a textbook example of several things NOT to do with a commercial product. The first is to remove features that make a subsequent release of a product LESS useful than the one before. The next is to re-engineer the UI in a way that makes a product harder, not easier to use. And the obvious one, NEVER release a product that has not been fully tested, as Apple has done with Pages 5.2
The question I have been thinking about is the business issue. Why on earth would Apple release a highly defective product into the user base. There is one explanation. Pages 5.2 is free. This leaves the door wide open to follow on with a Premium product that works, maybe even a modestly enhanced verion of Pages 4 ... and sell it for a high retail price. THAT makes perfect sense.

How do I add metadata to a PDF to specify the document's natural language?

I have a PDF which isn't in US English. Can I add metadata to the document to say what language it is in?
Is there a standard way of doing this?
I see I can add Name:Value pairs to Custom Properties in Reader. Is that the right way of going about it? If so, what Name do I use?

Are you sure you can add custom metadata properties? I'm surprised to hear that, because Reader is not usually capable to editing PDF files in such a way at all, and I wasn't able to insert such properties in Reader XI, even with the Extended Reader Rights applied to a file...

Add a field to the last page of a document file only

Hello,
I currently have a script which will add signature and text fields to the first page of a document.
The script is required to specify the "last page" of the document and not the page number, as each file will vary with the number of pages.
The script is in run in batch processing on multiple files which are not open (usually 50 at a time).
If anyone can please advise how to modify the script I will be most grateful.
// Create Date field dynamically for employee signature field
var f = this.addField("Todaydate", "text", 0,
[60, 54, 135, 75]);
f.userName = "Today's Date";
f.value = "Automatic Update";
f.readonly = true;
f.fillColor = color.ltGray;
// Create signature field dynamically for employee
var f = this.addField("mySignature", "signature", 0,
[120, 85, 330, 105]);
f.setAction("OnFocus", "var f = this.getField('Todaydate'); f.value = util.printd('d/mm/yyyy', new Date());");

Thank you very much for your help, I really appreciate your quick response.
The script has been modified as you suggested and the fields are now added to the last page of each document and is working perfectly.
I have included the modified script as follows for reference:
// Create Date field dynamically for employee signature field, add fields to the last page of every file
// Determine the last page of this document
var page = this.numPages - 1;
var f = this.addField("Todaydate", "text", page,
[60, 54, 135, 75]);
f.userName = "Today's Date";
f.value = "Automatic Update";
f.readonly = true;
f.fillColor = color.ltGray;
// Create signature field dynamically for employee
var f = this.addField("mySignature", "signature", page,
[120, 85, 330, 105]);
f.setAction("OnFocus", "var f = this.getField('Todaydate'); f.value = util.printd('d/mm/yyyy', new Date());");

How can I add metadata to iWeb pages hosted on .mac?

How can I add title/description/keyword metadata to my website?
Is there an easy solution?
I publish my site to my .mac account.
Any direction would be appreciated. I work in the web marketing industry, so it bugs me not being able to add metadata to my site.
Thanks!
Macbook Mac OS X (10.4.7)

So I find the folder: Welcome_files for example
Then do I open up the Welcome.js file using text
editor?
When I add the metadata, then do I Save As and put
the file back into the Welcome_files folder?
Actually every page like Welcome has a Welcome.html file and then a folder "Welcome_files". The file you want to edit is the Welcome.html file. Not anything in the folder.
Do I need to Publish again, or is that process
automatic since the site is pulling from down from my
iDisk?
Nope don't publish again. That would just overwrite you changes again. Just save the file in the same place and you're done.
Will I have to re-enter metadata every time that the
page changes, or every time the site changes?
Anytime iWeb thinks the page needs to be republished, your edited file will be overwritten.

Acrobat Pro X Opens Every Document Directly to Page 2. WTF?????

Hello. I updated to Acrobat Pro X and now when I try to open a PDF file from a link on my website, it automatically opens every document starting on Page 2, instead of Page 1 as I have set in "Properties"
When I open the documents independent of the web browser, they open directly to Page 1, as specified.
What gives?
Anyone else having this problem?
I think I might punch Adobe Acrobat right in its face as my customers are going to open the docs on my site and go "WTF????????!?!?!!?!?!?!?!?!?!!" and then poop their pants.
What to do?

I was having a similar problem, but only when viewing PDFs that were set to "fit page", and only when viewing in the browser. "Fit width" PDFs worked fine.
I am running Pro 9 but made the mistake of installing Reader X. (This could explain why PDFs opened locally were fine, but those opened in a browser are not.)
I finally uninstalled Reader X. PDFs now open to page 1 properly. Strangely, I didn't have to reinstall Reader 9... I guess it's now using Pro 9 to view in the browser?
Not sure if this is a bug in Reader/Pro X or just a problem with having different versions of Reader and Pro on the same machine, but I thought I'd at least add a "me too" to the topic.

How do i add a second page to a document in Pages 5.2.2

How do I add a second page to a document in Pages 5.2?

Hello jeddi17,
You can insert a page break with the Insert (menu) > Page Break.
Note if your typing overflows the first page, then a new page is automatically created.
Pages for Mac 5.0: Change the flow of text
http://support.apple.com/kb/PH15334
Force text to the next line or page
A line break, also called a soft return, starts a new line without starting a new paragraph. A page break moves the next line of text to the top of the next page.
Click where you want the break to occur.
Do one of the following:
For a line break: Press Shift-Return.
For a page break: Click Insert in the toolbar, then choose Page Break.
Take care,

Glad you stepped in and elucidated my inadequate explanation.
Step by Step explanations of the problem will get Step by Step instructions, but its been a week and the O.P. hasn't elaborated on what they actually want.
You may consider it a horrible answer, what was your opinion of the question?

How do I add page numbers to a document in Pages 5.2

How do I add page numbers to a document in Pages 5.2? I'm sure there's some way to do this but it's less obvious than in the previous version of Pages.

Click on one of the Header or Footer fields and you will get a pop-up asking if you want to add page numbers, and a choice of formats.
You also may use Insert > Page Number.

How can I stop pages from wanting to make every document into an outline?

Every time I try to create a document in Pages, it insists in turning it into an outline. How do I type a staright document?

Have you tried starting from a different template?
As far as I can tell the Outline setting is contained in the document, so this should only happen if you are starting from a template that was saved with Show Document Outline selected.

HT4641 after modifying a document in Pages I found that there are horizontal lines across every line break when opened and saved it in DropBox. Does anyone know why?

after modifying a document in Pages ON MY IPAD AIR I found that there are horizontal lines across every line break when opened and saved it in DropBox. Does anyone know why?

Thanks a lot for your swift response. And sorry if it was a bit too hectic to go through my detailed query (which I did because it was misunderstood when I asked previously). As I've mentioned above, I was informed that updating to 5.0.1 would '''require''' me to '''delete''' the current version and then install the new one. And doing so will involve losing all my bookmarks. I guess I should have been more specific and detailed there. By losing, I didn't mean losing them forever. I'm aware that they're secured in some place and deleting and installing the software doesn't harm its existence. What I meant that if I install the new version, I'd have to delete the old one. And after installing the new version, I'd have to transfer them (bookmarks) back from wherever they are. Get it? When it updated from 3.6.9 to 3.6.13, and from 3.6.13 to 3.6.18, I didn't need to follow that process. They were already present on their own.
BTW, I'm having no problems with 3.6.18 but after learning about the existence of version 5.0.1, I'm a bit too eager to lay my hands over it.
Thanks for your help; hope this wasn't extremely long.

Display custom metadata/ add new columns in document explorer of spaces

We have client requirement to show custom metadata in the document explorer home sceen, like Document name, Size, Author, etc..
Can we display metadata from advanced properties of a file like a column or can we add new columns to display to document explorer.
How can we achieve this goal, can we customize taskflow to achieve this goal.
Thank you,

For what it's worth, I posted pretty much the same question a couple of days ago:
How to show document title instead of file name in Document Manager
If you check the source of the task flow you'll notice that the document explorer contains an af:treeTable that iterates over a collection of items.
I have not yet identified the class it is iterating over, but I doubt you will be able to add custom metadata to this table. Perhaps the document title (which I am looking for) which is a common field, but not others.
Might be an enchancement request for Oracle Support.
