Apex 3.0 PDF with Images

Hi,
i would like to integrate my company-logo inside the pdf report.
is there a chance to do this ?
Thanks in advance
Marco

Marco,
You can do that when using RTF based report layouts. This requires BI Publisher. Once that's configured, and "Advanced" support for PDF Printing is enabled (in the instance settings), you can create RTF report layouts using the BI Publisher Word template builder and include images in that RTF file. Here's a link to the BI Publisher site on OTN where you will find more info on the Word template builder:
http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/applications/publishing/index.html
The steps in APEX to set this up would be:
- go to shared components / report queries
- click create
- enter your query
- step forward until you reach the page that lets you download your report in XML
- load that XML file into the Word template builder
- design you report layout incl. image
- save as RTF and upload the file into APEX (on that same page where you downloaded the XML)
- finish the wizard
- use the URL shown to integrate with your application, e.g. use the link as the target for a button
Hope this helps, viel Erfolg,
Marc

How do i control my images so that they come fit on that pdf file for any image size that i take.
    Thanks in advance

    I am having a similar and more serious problem. It takes a
    long time to execute, but even attaching a small image balloons the
    pdf to 6MB plus. After a few images it gets up to 20MB. These are
    100k jpeg files being attached. The resulting PDF is too large to
    email or process effectively. Does anyone know how to reduce
    size/processing?

  • Upload/Insert PDF with Image Manager

    I used to be able to insert a PDF and MP3 file through the Image Manager within the Item Description area but for some time have not been able to. I had asked the question in the old forums to no resolve. I've tried multiple sites from multiple browsers on both Mac and Windows but same issue.
    What I do:
    1.) From within any webpage/web app item description text area, I click on the Image Manager icon (little picture with sun and mtn. in the toolbar above the text area) and the Image Manager opens up.
    2.) Now the Image Manager DOES allow me to upload both PDF and MP3 files onto the server from here (which is good). Then I go to the list and find the file on the server, I'll select the file and then click on "Insert" but the Image Manager just closes and nothing is inserted into the Item Description area.
    This had worked for many years and like I said I can't get it to work in any testing scenerio. Same issue everytime when inserting, nothing gets inserted. The only alternative is manually inserted the href into the HTML but several of my clients have difficulty with this and it used to work before.
    I know it's been stated that the Literature/Media Module is how you handle files but this is way more cumbersome then it should be and the way I and my clients used to do it through the Image Manager worked great. Any help or clarification would be great. I can't even find if this is a feature done away with. Thank you for the help.

    Tersieff,
    I know you mentioned it had worked for your over the years. However I would recommend using the either the file manager or better the media downloads to upload and manage your media files. I see that it would come in handy to be able to select the file through the image manager, but I don't think it's working for media files other than images. Using the media downloads you will be able to provide a download link to this file, the downside is that you will have to manually enter the module for each media download within the item description.

  • I can't sign PDFs with images

    Hello everyone,
    I'm on a Mac OSX 10.8.5 and I am trying to follow these instructions: AMS Financial Aid Forms by Rachael Arestad on Prezi using Adobe Reader 11.0.10. However, there are a couple problems that come up.
    1) I can't print the PDF as a PDF like the tutorial wants me to, I can only save. Why it wants me to print as PDF is beyond me.
    2) If I try to add an image as a signature, Reader tells me to save a copy. Okay so I click save a copy, and I try again... and it tells me to save another copy! (ad infinitum)
    What's happening here? Sorry if I come off as snarky, but this is a surreal and frustrating problem.

    The author of the piece was, frankly, misinformed.
    1. They say use Adobe Acrobat Reader. It hasn't been called that in over 10 years. It's Adobe Reader now. But this isn't important. But I mention it because the names of products are critical here.
    2. They say to use the "Adobe PDF" printer. But this is not and never has been part of the free Adobe Reader. It is included in the product Adobe Acrobat ($$).
    3. This option is no longer available on Mac OS even if you buy Acrobat.
    Now, the save a copy thing. If you save a copy, you must save with a new name. THEN you must close the document you are working on and OPEN THE COPY.

  • PDF Printing with images

    Hello all-
    I was wondering if it is possible to create a PDF document with images from a report that has images, through the FOP. I have tried this on APEX 3.2.1 and APEX 4.0.1, but with no success. I installed FOP in a standalone OC4J that I have installed on my PC and this works fine. I am using the Demonstration Application to test creating the PDF with images by trying to print page 23 - it is a report with images. I get a PDF report, but the image column is blank - no image, no errors. Has anyone been able to accomplish this?
    Thanks in advance,
    Greg

    Hi,
    yes you can, this tool allows you to create FOP templates with images (look at the examples)
    http://www.java4less.com/fopdesigner/fodesigner.php?info=guide
    You can of course create your own FOP templates without this tool, there is a XSL-FO tag to do that, you must make sure the images are available to the print server, either by referencing images on the file system or deploying the images in the print server.

  • Bridge CS4 won't output to pdf multiple images with same filename

    Hiya...my googling efforts have thus far failed!
    I've got CS4, and in Bridge, I created a New Smart Collection to find all filenames in a folder containing "." or ".jpg" - which in turn searched through all the subfolders like what you used to be able to do in Photoshop CS3.  Very simple stuff, but all the images are jpg's, but in multiple folders (I don't want to move them out of the folders, as the files came from an external source, and there are heaps of folders, and I don't want to pdf each subfolder seperately as it will take forever).
    The problem is that some of the files have the same filenames (again I'd prefer not to rename, as it happens a lot on this project, and they are all over the place).  So whilst Bridge will show the thumbnail images correctly in the content tabbed screen in my New Smart Collection, but once I've done the Output to PDF thing, for example, instead of showing both different images it has pdf only the first image but repeated it twice.  And this happens multiple times throughout the pdf, the more times the same filename is used, the more times the first image gets repeated.
    I know that it is messy to have multiple similar filenames, but why can't bridge just place the image anyway?  It allocated a space for it on the pdf and does show it in bridge, it just doesn't seem to survive the transfer to pdf well.
    The only other thing that I have done is use the below link (which was posted on another adobe forum thread) to create a custom pdf output template (nothing too fancy, just number of rows / columns, size, font etc).  But I've tried using the standard bridge templates and it does the same thing.
    http://www.proficiografik.com/2009/08/03/save-custom-pdf-output-template-in-adobe-bridge-c s4.html
    Any help would be appreciated...even if to tell me that I am being unreasonable!
    UPDATE 16/11/09
    Just to let you know that I seem to have resolved the bug inadvertently with one of the Adobe updates. The below is the link for the AdobeOutputModule-2.1-mul-AdobeUpdate.zip which was released on 2/19/2009 - which allows for headers & footers to be placed in the Ouput pdf. I finally installed it today, and everything seems to be working fine now (i.e. I can pdf multiple images with the same filenames and the pdf will actually show each different image rather than repeating only 1 of the images).
    Must have been a fix installed in the contact sheet templates that get installed with the update - not sure why the original version was corrupted, but I've left that with the Adobe guys (I submitted a bug report - and they were able to replicate the problem but hadn't fixed it as yet).

    When I click import from disc I am asked to choose a disc and then I get this message:
    The following photos will not be imported because they are already present in the catalog. To see these photos in the catalog select 'Show in Library' (the import will be canceled).
    This is followed by a long list of images. If I click 'Show in Library' I can see all the images with the same filename. And then they start to automatically write over those images with images from the disc. However they keep the same metadata and keywords from the previous images. If I click on Import and deselect the "don't reimport suspected duplicates" box, it imports only the images that don't share filenames and none of the images that do.
    Is there a way of setting the "Don't reimport suspected duplicates" box in preferences?

  • Generate pdf with apex listener 2.0

    hi,
    we would like to generate pdf out of apex.
    as long as we have text (IRR) WITHOUT special characters (öäü), everything is working fine.
    when we have this characters in a text-columng (IRR), then we get a .pdf with the following content:
    javax.xml.transform.TransformerException: com.sun.org.apache.xml.internal.utils.WrappedRuntimeException: An invalid XML character (Unicode: 0x3) was found in the element content of the document.
    could this be a problem of the characterset? but if, where to change what?
    - we defined in ADMIN in 'report printing' / 'instance-settings': oracle-apex-listener
    - we are working with apex-listener 2.0 (integrated in weblogic-server)
    - we work with APEX 4.2.1.00.08

  • Error "Failed to Export PDF" with big image on CS6 (32) and CC (64)

    Hi everyone,
    I'm on indesign CS6 (v8.0.2) and when I try to export pdf with a very big image ( *.tiff, 25000*35000 pixels, ) , the action failed with this message :" Failed to export a PDF".
    To be sure that there is no any corrupted elements, I made a very simple layout (one page , and just one element for my image,I turnoff prefilgth and all  ressource intensive options, and export with no downsampling or resampling) and try to export with different size image:with 20000*30000 -or smaller -image the export works, always failed with image .The export failed to in scripting mode.
    If I diveded my image in four , the export works but this solution is not convenient (I actually made tests for a fully automatised process, and we want to be sure that the indesign  component is  enough "safe")
    I try the same action with an evaluation version of indesign CC 64 bits (v9.2) and have the same behavior.
    I can imagine that there is a memory issue there, but my config seems to be strong ( windows server 64 with  16GB ram, DD with more than 100GB free). I don't undersant why-in a "full" 64 bit environnement- it is not possible to manipulate and export very large image ?
    I'm wonder If the background task is a part of the problem, and if it 's possible to disable it in CS6 or CC as in cs5 ( creates an  “DisableAsyncExports.txt” file in  Adobe InDesign executable directoty don't seems to disable it  in CC or CS6).
    Thank you for your help and good ideas..

    this is a .tif (not a "big"tiff) compressed in LZW or ZIP.

  • PDF with hyperlinks to images and other PDFs.

    Hi, All.
    I would like to create a small booklet with approximately 12 to 16 pages as a PDF document but wish to have images and text in the document set as hyperlinks so that they can launch other images and/or documents. In other words, a viewer could click on an image or text and then see an enlarged image open on the center of his computer screen or see another document open over the original PDF. This would work in a similar fashion to what one can do with interactive books on the iPad created with iBook Author.
    The questions I have are:
    Where can I find more material to read on how to create PDF with these features?
    I have seen PDFs that open with an application on screen that makes them 'feel' more like a real magazine. They are not a typical Acrobat or similar PDF viewer but rather an application that 'flips' the pages in a similar manner to what one would do holding a real magazine. Is it possible to do this with the PDF documents launched by hyperlinks on my PDF document?
    Can these hyperlinks open enlarged images in the center of the screen while the remaining area around the image (background) become darker to place emphasis on the image?
    How can I learn more about these features and how to use them with Acrobat and PDF documents?
    In case the information is relevant I am currently running Acrobat 9 Pro version 9.5.3 on a Mac.
    This is sort of an urgent project so any help you can share will be very appreciated.
    TIA,
    Joe.

  • How to open a pdf file and then attach it with images

    I am new to Indesign Server.
    I'm currently working on a pdf.
    I have a white blank pdf template.
    that I want to attach/glue it with images.
    How to open a pdf file and then attach it with images.
    Please, help me.
    Thanks.

    First step would be to make yourself familiar with InDesign desktop version.
    Whatever you intend to achieve, do it there manually. (see regular app docs or forums)
    Then try to automate your steps with scripting (see scripting docs or forum)
    If you can do it with a script in the desktop version, that script will likely also run in ID Server. (see server forum).
    If you can specify missing features not achievable thru scripting or manual use, reconsider to write a plugin (this forum).
    A seasoned C++ programmer will need a few months to learn the basics, wade thru tons of documentation etc. Alternatively consider to hire a consultant to do the development work for you.
