Adding title block to PDF docs

I'm using software that's similar to AutoCAD for furniture plans, but it doesn't create a nice title block so what I do now is just convert the building plans to PDF's and send them away. I'm wanting to create a nice title block that I could add into these plans after I convert them to PDF's. Are there any programs that could help me do that?
Thanks

You can use Acrobat pro.
Please check this forums http://forums.adobe.com/community/acrobat to see if any recommendations help.
Thanks.

I saved a PDF doc in adobe and then added text to the form. But every time I try an email it it only

I saved a PDF doc in adobe and then added text to the form. But every time I try an email it it only sends the original form without text. Once I've changed a doc in Adobe, how can I save it so that I'm able to use it with added text and notes? Also, I'm using a new iPad.

If you are using those apps or websites, they are likely viewing the PDF using iOS' built in PDF previewing, which will not show annotations and markup to the PDF. We have informed Apple of this issue, but do not have any insight into whether or when they will fix it.
Regarding the qustion about importing pictures, Adobe Reader does not provide any capabilities to import pictures into a PDF. To do this, you'll need to use Acrobat, available on your desktop computer.

Cad title block cofig docs required

Hi All.
I am also working on the integration of CAD integration with mySAP PLM.
I am using AutoCAD 2007.
As per the settings suggested in this thread, I have already completed it.
Still, I am facing the problem with Title Block field Mapping.
In this regard, I have done following steps:
1. Title Block Bordering is done.
2. Customizing for SAP--> CAD is completed.
3. Customizing for CAD--> SAP is done.
While saving the Drawing document using DIR, the Document number, version etc details do not replicate to the CAD desktop.
Can anybody help me out in this?
Regards

Hi Rahul,
I believe you are using CIDEON interface of AutoCAD with SAP,
Have you done all the CFG file settings? i.e. "TbkMapping"
& "SystemCfg" settings
First:

NOTE:-
We have used a Function Module to call the Title block "CAD_GET_TITLE_BLOCK_DATA" & included under "ZXCADRU01"
here we have defined all the myfields to be mapped in the TbkMapping

ColdFusion 8 drops Arabic characters when generating PDF doc

Hello All,
Please let me know what I'm doing wrong here! I have trouble with generating a PDF document from ColdFusion.
The cfm document contains mixed English and Arabic text and it seems that the ColdFusion's embedded PDF Generator drops Arabic characters when creating the PDF file.
I attached a bare bone cfm document (see print_test.cfm) that I used as an example to the stated problem.
The document:
displays fine in FireFox 3.0.10 (see attached print_test_screenshot.jpg) Used link:
http://localhost:8500/Print_test.cfm?display=yes
This image file also shows the characters that get dropped by the ColdFusion's embedded PDF Generator.
is converted fine in PDF by the FireFox 3.0.10 using print command line (see attached print_test_firefox.pdf) Used command:
“C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\firefox.exe" -print "http://localhost:8500/Print_test.cfm?display=yes" -printmode pdf -printfile "c:\pdf\print_test_firefox.pdf" -printdelay 150
is NOT converted to PDF properly by the ColdFusion using the embedded PDF generator (see attached print_test_cf.pdf) Used command: http://localhost:8500/Print_test.cfm
The print_test.cfm file, which I had to remove since this forum allows me to post only 3 attachments, has the following content:
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">

"I suppose you did it through the cfdocument tag in a cfm document". nope i used
the iText library (the one that ships w/cf) directly in cf to see where the
problem actually was. i don't think this is something you want to do?

your own bug report here:

How do I make 2 pdf docs into a one page pdf file.

If often need to take an existing pdf file and add a small title block/revision history block to it but I have not found a good way to achieve this. The smaller title block needs to be free sized according to how much area is available on the origional pdf file.

You are probably look to impose a document. Have a look at Quite for their third party impostion plug-in solutions:

BLOB Column with PDF docs

I already read a different ways to extract the PDF docs from oracle table and open it through forms. All of them with java classes, webutil integration and dbms_lob.
But, if I need an other way to show it (select the column and open it) through the forms module, I can do it. Like Developer 6i, we can defined a OLE container field in forms and query the table and show the BLOB data.
This are my scenerio:
Oracle DB: EE 9.2.0.6.0
Developer: 6i Rel 2 & 10g v. 10.1.2.0.2 (for test and eventually for migrate to production environment, with iAS R 9i)
I already read if I need to use java, dbms_lob or webutil, I need to use it through iAS and in some cases I need to create a DAD.
But, If have 10g in developer enviroment just for test and I don't want to use a iAS, do I have any other way to select a BLOB column (with a PDF files store in there) from a oracle table and be able to open it with acorbat reader.
thank you a lot guys and sorry about all this message (related with the same) but I am no a guru oracle developer.

Keynote app PDF docs loaded in iTunes library not synching to ipad

I've downloaded the Keynote apps, accessed the iTunes library => Apps => Keynote => added the PDF files I wanted
They are visible in the iTunes library on my computer. Now synching my ipad to the computer, open Keynote apps, selected + copy from iTunes and I can see the list of all the PDF docs I have added but there are in grey shade and cannot click on them to add them to my ipad.
Any suggestions? thanks!

Sounds like you just updated your IOS. Check the iTunes settings and confirm that nothing was changed:

Pdf docs created in pages show only photos, graphics, NO text, Help

I have tried exporting to pdf, best quality & also "Print" to pdf with same results. The resulting thumbnail on my desktop and the one in "get info". look fine but when the pdf doc is opened only the graphic elements including photos show up. NO words show up at all (on Mac or PC). I need to be able to create pdf so I can print on pc network. Any suggestions. It would appear that I am following the instructions correctly as a pdf is actually created but with the above results.

Tried your suggestion to no avail. However found some new info that might help find the problem.
1. When I open in preview rather than Adobe the document looks correct.
2. When I click and drag across the missing text I can produce grayed blocks where the text should be..
3. If I then "copy" and "past" into a blank word document the text appears in the word document.
4. I was able to open the document with the problem with e-copy desk top a kind of reader/converter.
5. My OS is up to date.
5. Adobe reader is up to date as well (8.1 think).
Thanks, for your help though. I really appreciate your trying.

Creating new column in existing pdf doc

I am trying to add a new column with some CFif content into a pdf doc that is already created. the original pdf doc contains a table PropertyDetails_T with columns such as 1st column : 'customer name' 2nd col : 'no. of. vehicles' 3rd column : 'area of farmland'. I have to insert a new column between 1st and 2nd.
i am using dreamweaver. in design mode i inserted columns to right of 1st column and added the column name "area of property".
Next i include CFif lines in code mode as given below :
<cfif getPropertyDetails_T.areaofProperty NOT EQUAL "">
<td> #NumberFormat (getPropertyDetails_T.areaofProperty,"_______.__")#</td>
<cfelse>
<td>0.00</td>
</cfif>
but after writing these lines and saving, the table in design mode has been messed up. i see that CFif content of 'no.of vehicles' has been moved to the next column 'area of farmland'. i have the new Cfif content - <cfif getPropertyDetails_T.areaofProperty NOT EQUAL "">
<td> #NumberFormat (getPropertyDetails_T.areaofProperty,"_______.__")#</td>
where it should be that is 'area of property' column.
But i see that value '0.00' has been diplayed below the column 'no.of vehicles' instead of the CFif content that was previously added to it and is now pushed to next column.
does anyone have pointers as to how i could correctly apply indentation or code it right to align the right column to the right CFif contents.
thnx,
sachinpol

Making a PDF doc accessible on my iPhone

How do I transfer a PDF file from my iMac to my iPhone 3Gs?
I've uploaded this PDF doc to my website but dont see how to download it and store it locally on my iPhone anywhere in the Safari running on my iPhone.
Also, I've downloaded the app iPDF but again, don't seem to be able to figure out how to get the PDF doc over to my iPhone as iPDF's search engine only seems to be title specific as opposed to entering in a web address.
Needless to say, when I drag the doc from my iMac to my iPhone via iTunes, iTunes stops loading the doc into the iPhone as it says it isn't a recognised format for iTunes (not surprisingly).
Any suggestions?
Thanks!

Hi, I use MobileMe and would e-mail the PDF to myself which can be opened on my iPhone. If I wanted to store on my iPhone, I would save this e-mail in a folder within my MobileMe account.
If you use MobileMe you could also upload the file to your iDisk folder, then download the iDisk app onto your iPhone. You would then be able to access the file on your iPhone via the iDisk app.
Hope this helps.

Get Plugin Finding Service Error for weeks & weeks now - can't update plug-ins, need download .pdf doc, but says adobe unstable, plug-in needs update. now what

Want to download .pdf doc, but pop-up says it's unstable, need update plug-in. Tried to update, got error message, with "try later". Same for weeks now. Tried check for updates, Firefox is up to date, clicked update plug-ins... it tries, then again... same error message: "Plugin Finding Service Error. Please try again later".
Been so long now -- when becomes a mighty big question. Looked in forum, no joy.
Please, can someone tell me -- what's the go. I'm absolutely no good with computers, but this needs to get fixed. Should I stop using Firefox or what?
Thanks for your help.
Happy 2013 to all.
PS. (added a couple days later)
I'm told I should have added my next question in reply to TylerDowner here, instead of as I did. Sorry if that's so (really?) but I didn't even realize I could edit this.
So... TylerDowner, thanks very much for your reply, and please would you -- or anyone else who might be able to help -- see my first reply to you below. (seems a waste to slot in here again)
Feelin even dumber, (ha-ha)
raaraa

Tylerdowner -- >> thank you << for your reply, and my sincere apologies for this delayed response (probs, hospital, blah-blah, you don't want to know).
Have tried to download via that link but not sure if successful. Very slow dial-up connection is the pits. Waited hours 'n hours, fell asleep in chair even, finally had to give in and go to bed, left it going. Server does time out every 8-12 hours, so not sure how long it went. The download appeared complete -- ie, did not show any note of failure. Not sure if it would -- some things in the past haven't.
Anyway, had success downloading one much older .pdf file, but the link for one I wanted had expired, and I don't know anything else to try. Tried a couple of other links I have, not sure of age of file -- on clicking link, the browser opened, but nothing more happened.
Wondering -- is the download available in separate pieces instead of one big one? Perhaps worth trying again that way?
Please, if you would be forgiving, and persist with me a little further/longer -- would you make your recommendation/s for next step/s please?
Hope you're in a safe, comfortable place. So many places in the world suffering with extremes of all kinds.

Arrgh. Old reliable firefox suddenly crashes whenver I try to download a file, access a pdf. doc or other random situations...I have the latest version.

Using Windows XP
Yahoo mail or G-mail. Trying to download a file from an e-mail I sent to myself from a smart phone, which had worked just fine a week ago, suddenly results in a crash of Firefox. I report said crash. Try to download pdf doc from banking website ...crash. And a few other times, I can't quite remember the exact details...crash.
On Firefox...7.o1
Love Firefox...hate this.

My firefox on an XP is behaving itself.
Try using firefox's [[safe mode]]
* do not make changes in the first window, just click on continue
* use only the default themes
* whilst in safe mode, disable all plugins
Firefox should then be working, and not crashing at this stage but it will restrict what you are able to do. If you get crashes:
* see [[firefox crashes]]
**follow the tips, and if necessary because crashes continue try to submit crash reports, and copy and paste a few recent crash ID s into your next message.
If firefox works, then try gradually adding back extensions, then plugins. <br/>(If you have a lot break the list into sections compare 1/2+1/2 ; 3/4 +1/4 etc it is faster than one at a time)

I would like to get to the point whre txt, pdf,doc are all getting indexed

Hi gurus,
Please reply to my question.
I would like to get to the point where txt, pdf, doc, etc... are all getting indexed
Edited by: 784786 on Feb 5, 2011 5:55 AM

HOW to get to the point .....If you do not provide a context to your question, you are a very far distance away from the point.
Sybrand's response is what would be the response to a question that is very [very] inadequately framed.
Without knowing the Oracle version, how you plan to load documents , there is no way your question can be answered.
For all we know, you aren't even planning to use an Oracle database but might be looking at Microsoft Windows Indexing !!
At the top right corner of the forums.oracle.com page, you would see a link to "FAQ". The FAQ is currently hosted at http://wikis.sun.com/display/Forums/Forums+FAQ
See the question titled "What is proper discussion forum etiquette?"
You could also see the well known article "How To Ask Questions The Smart Way" at http://catb.org/esr/faqs/smart-questions.html
Returning to your question :
Assuming that you are using Oracle 11.2.0.x, you can explore the Oracle Text option.

Hi Niranjan,
You are not taking a template from SAP to CAD.
In CAD Interface always you should work with CDESK i.e through CADDESK.
It is imperative to use the transaction CAD Desktop in Order to establish the link between the Cad drawing and Document Info Record(DIR ) while the drawing needs to be updated for title block entries.
The Following Procedure for working with CAD for Titleblock updation.
1. Open ACAD/Inventor , you see the SAP icon on the ACAD menu (top right)
2. Opend SAPview of CADDESKTOP i.e. AutoCAD/Inventor> SAP>CAD DESKTOP--->SAP VIEW.
3. Choose Working Directory for the Cad desktop log files.
Prefarably ( C:\Sap WorkDir\Acad or Inventor)
4. Enter DIR key (doc # + doc type ) you wish to edit
Result: SAPView tab is populated with DIR
5. Choose SAP View -> Originals-> Edi Originals
6. A Successful checkout shows ("File Copied")
7. choose "Execute" to edit the Original file. & Edit the drawing.
8. Save
This is the procedure you should follow to work with SAP-CAD when you have CAD Interface only this will update your Title block and likage will be maintained.
But you should use Function Module to mention all the Technical names of the Fields you need to maintain in the Title Block.
The in CFG File you need to map those fields.
i.e. in path
Cfg-File\LocalCfg\TbkMapping
Here you need to map all the required fields (DIR Fields in maintained in Function Module & the Template (ACAD/Inventor) Attributes)
Hope you are Clear.

Rehman
