Add PDFmaker to multiple CAD programs

My default CAD program is Land Desktop 2006, and I'm making the transition to Civil 3D 2009.
When I recently downloaded Acrobat Pro, icons and drop-down menus for the Adobe PDFmaker were automatically added to Land Desktop, but not to Civil 3D. How can I add them to Civil 3D?
Thanks.

As I recall, there is a post tucked away down the forum's time-line that stated the update to Acrobat 9.1 provided support for Civil 2009.
If you are not at 9.1 or better it may be worth processing through the updates.
Be well...

Fixing CAD Program Paths

I'm often asked to edit drawings that were created in engineering CAD programs. I keep running into the same problem where Illustrator can't fill a closed path completely, and I can't find a workaround yet for this.
Let's say I have a closed path of a basic shape, with rounded corners. (Well, I assume it's a closed path. It sure looks like it to me.) If I select this shape and fill with black, only the corners are filled black. The rest of the shape remains white.
I'm looking for a command in Illustrator CS3 that will correct this path, so the shape will fill entirely with black.
Can anyone comment on this, or offer a fix?
I've asked the engineering guys to look into their Export or Save As settings on their end, but there doesn't seem to be anything. I have been receiving .AI files and also AutoCAD .DXF format files, if this is of any help. I also understand some of these files are drawn in SoftWorks.
Thanks in advance for any potential help in fixing these simple paths.

i've had to bring lots of cad files into illustrator and that's always a drag and non of the solutions are quick.
you can use the plug in Concatenate to join segmented paths - this will require you to do one object at a time for clean results. you can do a whole document but you might end up with multiple merged objects etc. it's also not always clean, depending on your object you might end up with multiple lines on top of each other. but in general it helps a lot.
one helpful thing to do before using it is to get rid of anchor points before joining.
another way i've been working around this is by using the Live Paint. select the lines enclosing the shape you need and paint fill it.

Hobby CAD program recommendation? Where is spread sheet on iMac

Hello
Originally I was replying to J.C. in another thread about software. The question was answered with a star so not sure if J.C. or other question answering types will look at it so I am requizing here.
Sorry this is a bit stream of couciosness but my basic question is: what app has drawing capability freehand and CAD, desk top publishing enough to take notes and add pictures and can calc with a spreadsheet.
The following is how I arrived at the above question.
Is there a basic spread sheet that came with my 2007 17' iMac? I just use the one on my old computer. Looking through the apps I just see a demo of Office. Back in the day I purchased Wings for my Mac SE to have a spread sheet (didn't come with an s sheet).
Any recommendations on a desktop publishing app with drawing capability that integrates with above spreadsheet? I use it for taking notes and designing things for hobby. Metal working, furniture, etc.
I have Publishit Easy on Mac SE. I was writing employee manuals back then. Then my life took other turns and now I am back as if dropped from the past into the future. Help!
Back then 1989 when I was shopping for a computer, at the Mac store I said I wanted one I could upgrade to be able to use a basic cad program. Rather than educate me they just laughed. I bought else where. They called the store microage I fondly remember them as stoneage. They are out of business. No wonder.
Within a few years my friend was using a cad program on his laptop. Stoneage had no vision.
Perhaps I want a Cad program now. Still need to integrate/do the above with it. Should I enter this as a question in another forum here?
I assume any cad I would get now would be a bit over the top for what little I want to do (no cam use).
sincerely

There is Office for Mac but you will have to purchase it and dump the trial that came on your Mac as it will expire after 30 days. Office comes with Word, PowerPoint, Excel, and Entourage(email client). Excel does spread sheets, PowerPoint does presentations and Word creates documents. You could also get iWork for your Mac which are Apple's version of Word, PP, and Excel.

I'm not too familiar with CAD applications for Mac so you'll have to do a little research unless someone else can chime in. I just typed in Google "CAD for Mac". When you find one that looks good then go back to Google, type in it's name and look for some reviews.

Will the antispyware that downloaded with the Firefox upgrade interfere with my CA security suite? I've been told not to intstall multiple security programs.

Will the antispyware that was downloaded with the Firefox upgrade interfere with my CA security program? I've been told not to install multiple security programs?

Alternatively, though we're not sure how it got on your system, if you don't want it installed you should be able to remove it via Add/Remove programs in your Windows XP Control Panel.
From the Microsoft documentation for XP, located here...
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/307895
How to remove an installed program
To remove a program that is installed on your computer, follow these steps:
1. Click Start, click Control Panel, and then double-click Add or Remove Programs.
2. In the Currently installed programs box, click the program that you want to remove, and then click Remove.
3. If you are prompted to confirm the removal of the program, click Yes.
Some additional observations...
You seem to be running Firefox 3.0, for which security support ended in March of 2010. You may wish to update your Firefox to the newer Firefox 3.6 in order to continue to receive security updates. I believe simply pressing Help in the menu bar of Firefox, and then "Check for Updates" will accomplish this.
Lastly, your Adobe Flash player for Firefox is out of date, and contains a security vulnerability. It can be updated by following the below link and clicking Agree And Install Now and then running the downloaded file.

Can multiple LabVIEW programs simultaneously access the same NI-DAQmx hardware?

I am developing a test station system that, in essence, runs several
seperate LabVIEW programs simultaneously on the same computer, each
controlling a different set of I/O channels on one shared set of NI
DAQ hardware (analog and digital I/O PCI boards with external signal
conditioning).
I have already gotten a system like this running almost flawlessly
using LabVIEW 6.1, NI-DAQmx 7.1 with traditional channels, and older
E-series DAQ hardware. So long as two programs do not try to write to
the same output channel simultaneously, everything works exactly as
expected--I can even read from the same (named) channel simultaneously
from more than one program. The only issue I have had is that if
one
of the compiled applications is closed (not just stopped, but closed)
while others are still running, Windows XP (SP1) will bluescreen on a
driver error. This is undesireable, but acceptable (though if there's
a fix/workaround, I'd love to hear it).
I am now building a similar system using mostly the same software
(with an upgrade to LabVIEW 7.1), and I've noticed that the new
M-series DAQ hardware seems to offer much more bang for the buck than
old E-series hardware and its kin.
My question is this: It appears that I/O on M-series hardware must be
performed with new mx channels, with traditional channels not being an
option. I am therefore wondering if I will be able to do this kind of
multiple simultaneous access with mx channels, or if I must purchase
the classic hardware and use traditional channels for this somewhat
unorthodox application.
(Incidentally, the multiple simultaneous program thing is a
requirement for this system, as it is the only clean way to run
multiple
identical copies of the same complete program that only
operate on different I/O channels, and re-doing the program from
scratch is not an option.)

Dear Anonymous,
Thank you for contacting National Instruments.
To address your question, I don't know if multiple simultaneous access with mx channels is possible, but I do not see why it wouldn't be. The best way to find out would be to test it. I don't have your program or hardware, so I'm pointing you to some Compatibility VIs. These are VIs that look exactly like Traditional DAQ VIs except that underneath they call the DAQmx driver instead of the Traditional DAQ driver. If your device works when you substitute these Compatibility VIs in for the Traditional DAQ VIs, then you'll know the M Series boards will work for you.
Here is the link for information about the Compatibility VIs:

Let me know if you have any further questions or if this does not resolve your issue.
Thanks again and have a great day!

How do i add EQ to multiple music tracks

in an effort to make my touch's battery life last longer i read the tips and 1 was to turn off eq on the touch and add eq to the tracks from itunes but i can only do 1 at a time which is very slow. how do i add eq to multiple tracks??
im talking like 700 music tracks 1 by 1 isnt an option

You should be able to select the top track in a list and then hold down the shift key and click on the bottome of the list. Or you could use select all from the edit menu to select all the tracks in a play list/library.

How do I find the BIOS settings? I'm trying to install a VM so I can run CAD programs for my work.

I am an engineering student and thus having the capability to utilize CAD programs is highly advantageous to me, so I talked to several of my friends who have Macbooks and they recommended using Parallel. After I installed the program and my Windows OS, it keeps giving me an error message saying that the hardware virtualization has been disabled in the BIOS settings. I cannot find the BIOS settings anywhere! How do I change this? Does anyone know?

There are no BIOS settings, because Macs don't have a BIOS. I don't use Parallels, but I assume it has simulated BIOS settings. You'd have to consult its documentation to find out how to change them.

I down loaded new OS X (Lion)operating system and discovered my CAD programs no longer run. Is it possible to reload the original OS X and remove Lion?

If you backed up before the upgrade, restore the backup.
If not you are going to have to erease the disk and install the older OS.
You should back up any data you want before so that it can be restored afterwards.
Is there a version of you CAD program that is Lion compatable? That would be an easier solution.

Exporting DXF with Coordinates Illustrator to CAD program

Hi,
I often have to export graphics from Illustrator CS5 for use in Catia or Pro Engineer.
Usually, if it's a graphic I have made myself, all I do is drag the 0,0 on my rulers to the position on the artwork where I require the coordinate system to be placed in the DXF file and that's fine.
However, recently I have received files from other sources which need to be converted from a PDF to a DXF for use in my CAD programs and I am having difficulty relocating the coordinate system to the desired location.
For instance, if I convert the PDF to DXF without moving my 0,0 location on my rulers, sometimes the coordinate system is top left or bottom left of the artboard the PDF has been imported into Illy on. (It varies file to file). So I figured that if I move the 0,0 location of my rulers to where I want the coordinate system to appear, that should work because it usually does so in artwork I create. But it always gets overwritten. The only way I can counter this is to assume that the coordinate system is bang-on the corner of the artboard and move all my artwork to the corner and then convert the file to DXF.
I guess my question is, for those of you who have a similar task to do, is this the only way I can relocate the coordinate system (by moving the artwork to the corner, which seems a bit dodgy cos it's all on assumption) or is there a more accurate way to do so.
Thanks in advance.
Sonya

I o not know if that is the only way but I will point out the reason you might be seeing 0,0 either at the to left or lower left is that in Cs 5 it has been change to the top left i CS 4 and earlier it was the bottom left, so depending on what version it was created from it might change this for you as well a way of changing this for you is to ask from them to save the file as an ai fie first in a version that is CS or earlier than make that a pdf.
Or what might be easier is to live with it until everyone changes to CS 5 or later?
Or make it a symbol and use the orientation proxy in the symbols options to select the orientation you desire.

Attempting to add aditional functionality to my program. Can it be done?

I play online poker. I've written a program that keeps track of poker hands I've played, as well as the players I've played against. After every hand, the poker client writes the hand to a text file. My program reads these text files, extracts certain information regarding the hands and stores it in a database.
I want to add the functionality to the program that would enable it to be aware of things that are happening during the course of a hand; i.e, what cards are displayed on the board, what action each player has taken (raise, bet, check, etc.), how much each player bets, etc. These things can easily be attained AFTER the hand is over by reading through the text file that is saved, but I want the program to have access to this information DURING the hand, so I can have it preform various calculations and various other tasks.
Now, I'm not sure how to go about doing this, nor am I sure if this can even be done in java. I expect what I would need to do is have the program intercept the data which represents various things - actions taken by players, bet sizes, displayed cards, etc - that is transfered between the poker client and server . Or, perhaps, there is a simpler, more obvious solution to this.
So, is there any way to do the above with the proposed solution? If not, is there any other way that my program can work with the poker client itself in order to obtain the desired information without dealing with the interaction between the poker client and server?

Who does this and how? Is the progam dumping this information? Are you manually entering it? Or did you actually write a program that is doing this? And how does it work?What happens is after a hand is completed, the poker client writes the hand to a text file. My program reads through this text file and extracts certain information. So, the text file looks something like this:
Seat 4: player 1 ($156.50 in chips)
Seat 6: player 2 ($17.50 in chips)
player 1: posts small blind $1
player 2: posts big blind $2
*** HOLE CARDS ***
Dealt to player 1 [9s Js]
player 1: raises $2 to $4
player 2: raises $2 to $6
player 1: calls $2
*** FLOP *** [3d As Jh]
player 2: bets $2
player 1: calls $2
*** TURN *** [3d As Jh] [3h]
player 2: bets $4
player 1: raises $4 to $8
player 2: calls $4
*** RIVER *** [3d As Jh 3h] [6s]
player 2: bets $4
player 1: calls $4
*** SHOW DOWN ***
player 2: shows [Ah Kd] (two pair, Aces and Threes)
player 1: mucks hand
player 2 collected $39 from pot
*** SUMMARY ***
Total pot $41 | Rake $2
Board [3d As Jh 3h 6s]
Seat 3: player 2(big blind) showed [Ah Kd] and won ($39) with two pair, Aces and Threes
Seat 4: player 1 mucked [9s Js]
So my program just parses this text and extracts certain information, then saves it to a database I created using JDBC. I can then access this info through the GUI I created.
This question is problematic because I don't see how if you actually wrote a program that actually does something that you couldn't make it working during the game and not just after. What I suspect is happening is that either the client is dumping this information for you or that you are manually capturing it.
So can you describe how you are getting the information now exactly?The problem is that the text file is written to AFTER the hand takes place, not during. I'm looking for a way to access what is taking place in the hand, during the hand and not after.
Is that helfpul at all?

In Photo Stream, how add comments to multiple pictures before sending to iCloud?

When you have multiple photos in your Camera Roll that you want to send to subscribers via an iCloud Photo Stream, it seems that you can only add a comment to the first one of those photos before you post them all to iCloud. Am I missing something? I know you can add comments to multiple pictures once they're on iCloud as part of a Photo Stream, but I'd like to have the option of adding multiple comments before I post them.

Open Photo Stream.
Tap Select
Tap the pictures you want to save and a check mark will appear on each.
Tap Save
Choose either camera roll, or you can even create a new folder at this point

How to add metadata to multiple images via Template

Hi
Wonder if anyone can tell me if it is possible to add Metadata to multiple images using a metadata template. I see that I can add to multiple using Organizer but with that you have to type in the metadata. In Elements 11 I can do it using a template but only for 1 image at a time.
Is there a way to do this in Elements 11 or Organizer?
Thanks in Advance.

In the File properties dialog of the editor you can enter your values in the metadata tabs, then use the 'Import' button on the bottom of the dialog, switch to 'Export' and that exports your values as a template.
As far as I know, this is to be used in the advanced dialog of the downloader : you can use your templates at import time for a batch of images.
Otherwise, when you have selected many images in the organizer, you can click on the 'Add IPTC data' button in the tags panel on the right side : you have to enter the data which will be applied to all the selected files.
