Applescript help with password pdf separation

I'm looking for an applescript that will separate a pdf into separate pages but the pdf is password protected. I have the password. I've used automator's pdf to images to separate pdf's which is great but can't accomodate a password protected pdf.
Thanks in advance

Yes, same password.

Need some help with downloading PDF's from the net.

need some help with downloading PDF's from the net. Each time I try to click on a link from a website, if it takes me to a new screen to view a pdf, it just comes up as a blank black screen? any suggestions?

Back up all data.
Triple-click the line of text below to select it, the copy the selected text to the Clipboard (command-C):
/Library/Internet Plug-ins
In the Finder, select
Go ▹ Go to Folder
from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-G. Paste into the text box that opens (command-V), then press return.
From the folder that opens, remove any items that have the letters “PDF” in the name. You may be prompted for your login password. Then quit and relaunch Safari, and test.
The "Silverlight" web plugin distributed by Microsoft can also interfere with PDF display in Safari, so you may need to remove it as well, if it's present.
If you still have the issue, repeat with this line:
~/Library/Internet Plug-ins
If you don’t like the results of this procedure, restore the items from the backup you made before you started. Relaunch Safari again.

I need help with a PDF file that is an image, the "Read Out Loud' option does not work, please help!

I need help with a PDF file that is an image, the "Read Out Loud' option does not work, please help!

You mean an image such as a scanned document?
If that is the case, the file doesn't contain any text for Reader Out Loud to read. In order to fix that, you would need an application such as Adobe Acrobat that does Optical Character Recognition to convert the images to actual text.
You can also try to export the file as a Word document or something else using ExportPDF which I believe offers OCR and is cheaper than Acrobat.

I need help with creating PDF with Preview...

Hello
I need help with creating PDF documetns with Preview. Just a few days ago, I was able to create PDF files composed of scanned images (notes) and everything worked perfectly fine. However, today I was having trouble with it. I scanned my notebook and saved 8 images/pages in jpeg format. I did the usual routine with Preview (select all files>print>PDF>save as PDF>then save). Well this worked a few days ago, but when I tried it today, I was able to save it, but the after opening the PDF file that I have saved, only the first page was there. The other pages weren't included. I really don't see anything wrong with what I'm doing. I really need help. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I can't find it. I went into advanced and then document processing but no batch sequence is there and everything is grayed out.
EDIT: I realized that you cant do batch sequences in standard. Any other ideas?

Need Help with this PDF generation

Greetings,
Our company had a subcontractor (that is no longer
available) create a small system for a client that allows the
client to input some text in a flash form, and the system places
the text at a certain spot on a previosly created PDF document. For
80% of the users, this works perfectly and then can print and save
the customized pdf document. For 20% of users, they can see and
print the customized pdf, but when they save it, there is no
customization (area is blank). Can anyone help us understand why
this happens, and how to fix?
HERE ARE DIRECT NOTES FROM OUR CLIENT:
Users are able to input their customized info.
The customized info shows up in the PDF on the brochure.
Users can print the brochure with the customized info.
Users can save the BLANK PDF (without their info)
Users can NOT save the PDF with their info in it.
The exact message is in the top of the window with the PDF
brochure and says "please fill out the following form. You can not
save data typed into this form. Please print your completed form if
you would like a copy for your records."
Here is the input
form, feel free to test.
When you input into the brochure1.cfm Form, it sends the data
to
http://www.caduceuswebs.net/brochure1output.cfm
, which then spanwns the customized pdf to open.
If you want to see the native pdf, it is here:

Hi,
Thanks for the suggestion.
While getting rid of the ";" helps, but the output of the select statement is not displayed?When you do a SELECT statement in PL/SQL, you have to select the results into variables or arrays.
Try something like this:
DECLARE
     CURSOR C1 IS
                   SELECT TABLE_NAME
            FROM    DB_MGMT.CTRL_TAB_RETENTION
            WHERE   RETENTION_PERIOD_IN_MONTHS = 11
            AND     rownum                  < 2;
     min_dt_skey    NUMBER;
     max_dt_skey    NUMBER;
     stmt            VARCHAR2 (100);
BEGIN
    FOR i IN C1
     LOOP
        -- dbms_output.put_line('Table Name: ' || i.TABLE_NAME);
        stmt :='SELECT min(DT_SKEY), max(DT_SKEY) FROM DWH_RSRC_PERF.' || i.TABLE_NAME;
        dbms_output.put_line(stmt);
        EXECUTE IMMEDIATE stmt

     dbms_output.put_line ( min_dt_skey   || ' = MIN (dt_skey), '

Help with saved pdf' s,"more request cannot be completed.Service book information not found"

Hey from south africa,I'm using the curve 8520 on MTN service provider.I came across a problem a while ago where I had to setup my email address again,I had an email with some pdf's saved.They were working well until the re-setup,now when I try to load ones that I haven't read it gives me the error "More request cannot be completed.Service book information not found".I've sent the email back to myself but no luck,help.Thanks in advance.

You need to reset your email account again on your device & send the service books from the same interface on your device. Wait for the 30mins & register now yourself from the handset itself by following the below steps-click on Option Application-click on Advanced - Click on Host Routing table - Click menu key - select Register now option & Click, Follow these steps twice. Now go into your email application & click on it. Then press the menu key & scroll down,you can see Reconcile now option, Click on it twice !

Please Help with Converting PDF document to Word Document

I have downloaded our PDF document to be converted to a word document --- it did not work correctly--we need help with this
Scott Munsen
Abbott House -- Mitchell, SD

Good day Scott,
I received your document via our File Conversion Issue form. The root of the problem you're facing is the quality of the scan. I'm not sure if you were starting with a poor quality hard-copy or simply low DPI settings on your scanner, but the reason the results you received were so different than the PDF was the quality of the input.
If you're hard copy looks clearer than the PDF file you created, I would suggest increasing the resolution settings on your scanner.
Please let me know if you have any questions.
Kind regards,
David

New bee looking for applescript help with text edit app

I have a huge text files (20+) , I want to find a list of words like weather, farmers, ploughing. I want to find these words one at a time, as my text file is 250+ Mb in size.
I want applescript to count the how many times each word appears in the text.
Paste that occurrence of word into an spreadsheet file in a row named after text file , and in a column named weather, farmers, ploughing.
Please help.
Thanks much.
CF
PS so far I can open the text files with applescript, that is about the extent of my ability in programing.
Message was edited by: coldfusions onco

For a file of that size, you would need to use some shell utilities to get decent performance. To count words, the following script breaks up the text into words, then counts the number of times the specified word is found (a dictionary file is used as an example, so the match is equivalent to 'contains'):
<pre style="
font-family: Monaco, 'Courier New', Courier, monospace;
font-size: 10px;
font-weight: normal;
margin: 0px;
padding: 5px;
border: 1px solid #000000;
width: 720px;
color: #000000;
background-color: #DAFFB6;
overflow: auto;"
title="this text can be pasted into the Script Editor">
set theFile to "/usr/share/dict/web2" -- a 2.5MB list of words
set someWords to {¬
{theWord:"weather", theCount:0}, ¬
{theWord:"farmers", theCount:0}, ¬
{theWord:"ploughing", theCount:0}}
repeat with anItem in someWords
set aWord to quoted form of theWord of anItem
try -- break up into individual words, then search and count
set theCount of anItem to (do shell script "tr -cs '[:alpha:]' " & quoted form of linefeed & " < " & theFile & " | grep -ic " & aWord) as integer
end try
end repeat
someWords
</pre>

Help with resizing PDF's

I am in a company that draws plans for houses, similar to an architects.
Our problem is we are currently using a 2000i Autodesk cad based program and when we PDF
our files end up at about 14mb, while we sometimes come across other architects plans which are about 1mb
I was told to try out adobe acrobat 9pro to test if using out program with adobe we can reduce the PDF’s to 5mb max
I have tried several different options but the smallest I got was 12mb which meant changing the image quality to 300dpi which is very bad quality
We need it atleast 600dpi. Can anyone help me out how I must change it so it works out?
We are using the trial version for now as there is no point paying $500 for the program if it cant reduce the file size to as low as we want it.
I have tried an optimizer option and distiller and no change in size. the optimizer says that 98.17% of the file consists of content streams.
Or is it because we are using the trial version that we cant reduce the actual size of PDF’s?
while if i try and use the PDF option when rightclick on the file itself it leaves it at 3mb the whole file but it comes up as a pure line drawing not hiding the elements that are required.

The trouble is primary with pictures, not documents. The logo is not the
Adobe logo but looks like a sailboat. The document says that it opens with
Adobe 9.3 (loaded on my computer) but then I get the error sign.
Thanks,

Help with converting pdf to excel

I have a pdf of an excel file which I need to convert back to excel. The problem is that when I convert it only half the pages convert correctly to excel but the first three pages are unreadable. Any suggestions as I am stuck on why it only converts half the pages correctly.

You must be using the subscription service with Adobe Reader (ExportPDF)?
If so, you would need the password for the pdf. The bank may have (automatically) added a password preventing any changes. That would need to be removed first.

Need some help with the PDF ActiveX!

How can I resolve this issue., because On my application I have 3 buttons to open 3 differents pdf file and i can only open the first file (corresponding to the selected button).
I will appreciate all your help on this point.

Popo,
Thank you for contacting National Instruments.
I was able to run two copies of your VI on my computer simultaneously without any problem. I was able to open different PDF files in each instance of the VI.
It is hard to say what is causing your problem. If you are using multiple instances of this VI in a top level VI, try making each instance a different file name. I noticed some odd behavior when using multiple instances with the same file name. This odd behavior was corrected by giving each instance a unique file name.
I hope this helps!

Help with Password Management!!!

I am having a problem configuring my OID password management options... the Admin guide says that I can do it through Directory Manager by selecting the server in the left hand pane and editing the data on the password management tab... problem is I have no password management tab... it's not there!
So I notice that I can also use the command line tools to modidy the entry "cn=pwdpolicyentry,cn=oracle internet" directory. I assume that "cn=oracle internet directory" is the top level of my tree... doing a search for anything cn=* from the top level results in three things as follows... none of them are the entry I want:
cn=configset1,cn=metadird,cn=configsets,cn=oracle internet Directory
cn=odipgroup,cn=odi,cn=oracle internet directory
cn=odisgroup,cn=odi,cn=oracle internet directory
OK... so in desperation I attempt to add the entry "cn=pwdpolicyentry,cn=oracle internet directory" and the server says it already exists.
Seems to me there is something messed up with my Directoty Information Tree but I don't know why that would be (I just installed and the install gave me no errors) or how to fix it. Can someone please help???
Thanks
Chris

Querying the password policy entry can be a little bit tricky unless you are very familiar with LDAP. Here's the command that does the trick:
ldapsearch -s base -b "cn=pwdpolicyentry,cn=oracle internet directory" "(objectclass=*)"cn=pwdpolicyentry,cn=oracle internet directory
objectclass=top
objectclass=pwdpolicy
cn=pwdpolicyentry
pwdmaxage=0
pwdlockout=0
pwdlockoutduration=0
pwdmaxfailure=0
pwdfailurecountinterval=0
pwdexpirewarning=0
