Is there any way to embed the pdf file in the book created in iBooks Author to make it available to be downloaded or sent to email? So that the user can print it out.

Is there any way to embed the pdf file in the book created in iBooks Author to make it available to be downloaded or sent to email?
I'm making the book for children and there is one chapter providing coloring pages. So I wish to attach pdf files that allow users to download it at the end of chapter so that they can print it out. Been searching through discussion, I've found some advice about taking screen snapshot page-by-page > then send the pics from photo album to email. However, I'm wondering if there's a way that make the process easier.

Warehouse that PDF on your own server, then link to it from your book.

Is there any way we can save PDF files of 1.8v & 1.9v to 1.4v using plug-in?

is there any way we can save PDF files of 1.8v & 1.9v to 1.4v using plug-in? (using PDDocSavePara )

Something like this.
Change VER variable to version number as you need. ex. VER = 7 -> PDF 1.7
pdoc = AVDocGetPDDoc(avDoc);
PDDocSaveParams saveParams;
unsigned char buffer[sizeof(_t_PDDocSaveParams)];
saveParams = (PDDocSaveParams)buffer;
memset(saveParams, 0, sizeof(_t_PDDocSaveParams));
saveParams->fileSys = ASGetDefaultFileSys();
saveParams->major = 1;
saveParams->minor = VER; //change version here
saveParams->saveFlags = PDSaveFull | PDSaveCollectGarbage | PDSaveForceIncremental | PDSaveKeepModDate;
saveParams->size = sizeof (_t_PDDocSaveParams);
saveParams->saveFlags2 = PDSaveUncompressed;
PDDocSaveWithParams (pdoc, saveParams);

How to repair corrupted PDF-File ?

Hi there !
I am having problems with a couple of PDF-files which got damaged due to a hard drive break down / file recovery action.
Neither can i open them ("...not supported") nor have several attempts in repairing them (by using Pdf-repair software) been successful.
Interesting point about it is, that in terms of file characteristics everything seems to be OK (file size, file type etc. are recognized by the computer).
Does anyone have an idea what could be done to get my PDF's back to a readable status ?
Thanks     timrelo
Ps: In case you got an idea about how to fix a corrupted pdf-file, i am willing to send you one of my files.
      To do so, please send an email to    [email protected]    and i will email you a file.

Hi Bernd,
unfortunately i don't have the root-file (indesign etc.) to re-create/export a new pdf.
all i got is a couple of restored (from the crashed hard drive) pdf files which are indicated as being "corrupt/damaged".
greets   tim

Is there Mac software for repairing corrupted pdf files?

Using Mac 10.5.8, Adobe Acrobat Pro 9.3.2.
Many of my pdf files are encrypted on a sparsebundle disk image, as they are personal financial files.
Randomly files become corrupted, and even though I back up, it is a recurring and very time-consuming problem.
It's basically the only problem I have with my system, and because of the importance of the files very frustrating.
There are PC-based file repair programs. I've come across references to a command-line program, but hey, I'm a Mac user, right?
Is there anything?
And while we're at it, what can I do to prevent files from becoming corrupted? These are files from my scanner, not downloaded.
Thanks

See this list for Cameras that are compatiblie with iMovie. Almost all Sony cameras made in the last 5 years work with iMovie, so odds are high that your camera will work. The only exception is that some manufacturers have started providing 60P cameras. These cannot be used at 60P in iMovie (or on a TV set for that matter). But these cameras typically have other settings like 30P or 60i that work fine.
The bundled software with the Sony is Windows software. They do not bundle Mac software with Sonys because iMovie comes with every Mac anyway, and that is all you need.
I think your camera works with an SDHC card. You can easily insert the SDHC card into a card reader and import the footage. New iMacs have card readers built into the side. In iMovie, you just start iMovie. Then insert the card and wait for iMovie to see it. Or you can click the camera icon on the middle toolbar if it does not see it.
You can also attach your camera via USB. In this case, the camera must be plugged into wall power, and you attach via a USB cable.
Follow the instructions in the manual for how to set the controls of the camera during import.
Edited to add...You need a Mac with at least an Intel Processor to import from this camera. Older PowerPC models (G5, G4) will not work. Even with them you can get third party software to convert to a form iMovie can handle.

Any way to force a PDF file to be opened in "fit to screen" mode?

Is it possible to force a PDF to open "fit to screen" -- overriding whatever the end user has set as his default viewing preference -- while still allowing said user to zoom in and otherwise modify their viewing mode, AFTER the document has been opened?
In other words, I'd just like to force the initial state on the reader... not limit them to it after the document has been opened.
The reason being that most screens today are widescreen, so when you open a LETTER-format PDF file, most of the time you only see the top half. I'd like to force a document to be seen "fit to screen" so as to see ALL of it when opened... then, the user can do what he/she wants with it (and subsequent pages).
Thanks.

Hope the information did the job. However, be aware that you might also tick off some users that do not like default settings others like. I would suggest you consider your reason to override the user setting is good before you do it. If you really want a full screen view, maybe a landscape mode might be preferred. In that case, I suspect users would not mind the forcing of a full page.
You can also force full screen viewing, but such is confusing to some folks that don't think of hitting the ESC key to get out.

Is there any way to merge multiple pdf into one?

Hi,
Is any there any way to convert different frame files into pdf and merge them into one programmatically using FDK11.
Like, for example,
a.fm, b.fm, c.fm to abc.pdf
Thanks,
Venkat

You got the point.
My actual requirement is to convert a Frame book to PDF. But for some reason the O/P PDF gets cropped out when i pass a Frame book as Input whereas it works good with Frame files.
Thanks,
Venkat

Interactive Report Produces Corrupt PDF File

Hello.
I am using Apex 3.1.2 and have created an Interactive Report (IR). I then chose the "Download as PDF" option and chose the "Open" option. This caused an error about a corrupt PDF file.
I then saved the file to my Windows drive and attempted to open it using Wordpad. I saw the following error as the very first line in the file:
ORA-06502: PL/SQL: numeric or value error: character string buffer too small
I would much appreciate any suggestions as to what to do.
Thank you.
Elie

No Christina,
First I went under report attributes on Interactive reports under download
Download formats:
CSV and PDF
I checked both. CSV format is fine. PDF format is corrupt.
Next I then went in using the below:
http://www.oracle.com/technology/obe/apex/apex31nf/apex31rpt.htm
It tells me I don't have a print server defined. I am trying to get the INLINE method to work.
I see in the ADMIN there is a print server configuration section though it is not totally clear as I would think that you would get the default print configuration as you would with any other PDF docuement.

Pdf image recovery from corrupt pdf files

the pdf file in which i kept my pictures gt corrupt. i used image extractor tools but for nothing. please help me. i am clueless what to do?

How silly was I as I had been using PDF files since the day I learned to operate the computer system and didn’t know anything about them. Then one day I realized that why don’t I learn something about PDF to become a mater in it.
As we know in these days, PDF files are most commonly used by worldwide. Belong to any part of the society, we as an individual or an organization use PDF files. Therefore it has become very essential element in computer service.
“Generally a PDF or Portable Document Format file is a self-contained cross-platform document which appears same as in the form of soft copy or hard copy. PDF files are used by all of us as they contain the complete formatting of the original document, including fonts and images, PDF files are highly compressed, allowing complex information to be downloaded efficiently.”
PDF is very popular due to its easiest form of transferring the files over and through the internet as it maintains the original formatting and secures the documents so nicely that other files’ formats don’t.
Any PDF file contains text or images and sometimes both i.e. text and images. It can be used for office presentation, school assignment or personal collection. But sometimes we don’t need the text part which is inside our PDF file. Occasionally, we need only the pictures from our PDF files. That time we usually do this: copy the images or pictures from the PDF files and then paste them in other new PDF file. That process of copy and paste takes a long time and makes us tired. So that time we need an application which can easily extract all the images and pictures from our PDF files in very short point of time.
But just think about this: How can you extract images and pictures from a PDF file which is corrupted. Because there is not any software application which can extract the images and pictures from a corrupt PDF file. Did I say no?
Actually there is a tool which can easily extract the images and pictures from not only a normal PDF file but also from a corrupt PDF file. With the help of this tool anyone can easily extract the images and pictures from a single or multiple PDF files of all versions such as 1.3/1.4/1.5/1.6/1.7, from Adobe Acrobat 3.x to Adobe Acrobat X either it is normal or corrupted as it is very simple to use. After extracting the images and pictures, it allows you to save them in different formats such as JPEG, BMP, PNG and GIF. It is one of the fastest extracting tools which does extraction process in no more time.
i used this tool as it was refered earlier in this thread, and i am totally satisfy from this tool : PDF Image Extractor from SysInfoTools. What a utility excellent work done by experts.

Is there a way to edit a PDF file without converting it into a word document?

Is there a way to edit a PDF file without converting it into a word document?

Then you posted in the wrong forum...
At any rate, you can use the Edit Text & Images tool (under Tools - Content Editing) to make changes to the file. You'll need to be a bit more specific about what you want to change if you want more detailed instructions.

IMovie '08 freezes up...any way to save backup working files?

I'm really frustrated at losing projects and having to spend countless hours rebuilding them. On two separate occasions, iMovie has gotten "stuck" on launch and only shows partial screens and is inoperable. I found a thread where several other people were having this problem also. The remedy for me was removing my projects from the projects folder and then it will launch and operate fine, make new projects and functions normally. However, the original project somehow got corrupted, and when moved back into the projects folder, it freezes up iMovie. All previously uploaded/imported raw events are still available and fine, once I remove the culprit projects.
I have installed all updates for iMovie, iLife '08, and iSupport. I also have removed several strategic preferences and cache files from the library, to no avail. One user reported success at making a new user account, logging in to that account, and copying the iMovie application to the shared folder, then logging back into the primary account and replacing the application. Didn't work for me.
I am wondering if there is any way to save the project files like the older version iMovie HD? That way, I could save a back up copy of the working file somewhere and hopefully be able to use it, in the event that my project becomes corrupt. The project files don't have any extension. In iDVD, you are able to save a project in progress (to any location) and reopen it any time to make edits. In iMovie '08 there is no option to "open" an existing project, only start a new one. This seems very strange to me.
I'm about to give up on iMovie '08, I see that many people are experiencing bugs and I'm tired of having to spend countless hours redoing work.
Any thoughts or suggestions?

Thanks for the suggestions. I tried them unsuccessfully. No worries, I've resigned to the fact that iMovie '08 is a POS, learned from doing some research, talking with tech support, and reading many other discussions. Why else would they offer a special iMovie 06 HD version for Leopard. Besides, much of the past functionality is now gone.
I've downloaded and will use the HD version until I purchase Final Cut. Users beware, iMovie 08 is sketchy.
