Associating other extensions with text PDF Maker

Is there any plan to allow users to associate other file extensions with a PDF Maker that are plain text? We have proprietary files with extensions bom,bot,dbk,drd, dts,emn,ewprj and more that are essentially text files that can be opened with Notepad. Rather than converting these one by one using the Create PDF from Web Page functionality and using the Text File Type settings, can Acrobat be configured to recognize these formats as text to more efficiently process these files?

I had this a long time ago and one of my students pointed out a setting in WORD. Unfortunately I do not remember the item that had to be fixed, but it was definitely a WORD problem.

How to associate other file extension with text/xml

Hi,
I found that I could only load files into XDB via ftp when they had the file extension ".xml". Why is this?
Thanks
Pete

The information as to which file extensions are associated with which mime-types is stored in the xdbconfig.file. You can add an entry using the following code
connect system/oracle as sysdba
call dbms_xdb.cfg_update
       updatexml
         dbms_xdb.cfg_get(),
         '/xdbconfig/sysconfig/protocolconfig/common/extension-mappings/mime-mappings',
         xmlelement
           "mime-mappings",
           xmlconcat
             extract
               dbms_xdb.cfg_get(),
               '/xdbconfig/sysconfig/protocolconfig/common/extension-mappings/mime-mappings/mime-mapping'
             xmltype
               '<mime-mapping xmlns="http://xmlns.oracle.com/xdb/xdbconfig.xsd">
            <extension>rdf</extension>
            <mime-type>text/xml</mime-type>
          </mime-mapping>'

PDF Maker Add-In

I have a machine with Windows 8, Office 2013 and Acrobat X. I'm having trouble with the PDF maker add-in. In Word and Excel, the add-in is listed as "active" but I have no Acrobat toolbar and it does not appear on the ribbon. In Outlook, the add-in is listed as "inactive". It allows me to check the box to activate it, but remains in the "inactive" list regardless of how many times I try to activate it. We have another machine in the office that uses the same hardware and same software versions, and the add-ins work on it just fine. I have run updates on the office and Acrobat software, uninstalled and reinstalled, and ran "repair" on both multiple times and still have the same issue. Help!

Hi Ludy,
If you insist that the plugin is working fine on the othe rmahine then you can try the following:
Check the status of the add in Office 2013 >File > Options > Add ins > COM Addins > Go,
The add in tries to configure for the first time and if proper permissions are not there, it fails to load and Office disables the add in.
Try launching Office 2013 as Administrator, i.e. right click on Office icon and select 'Run as Administrator' and then check.
Do also create a new user account and check the behavior.
Also update Acrobat 10 to the latest version and check.
Try repairing Acrobat by going to the help menu > Repair acrobat.
In addition to the above you can check the following within the Office Application :
Enable PDFMakerOfficeAddin from the Microsoft Office application's Disabled Items list.
Open the Microsoft Office program (Word, Excel, Publisher, or PowerPoint).
Open any Blank document and Click the 'File' menu button, then click the ' Options' button.
Click Add-Ins.
From the Manage dropdown list select Disabled Items and click Go.
Check the list for PDFMakerOfficeAddin:
If it is listed, then select it and click Enable. Close all dialog boxes and restart the Office application
If it is not listed, then make sure that PDFMOfficeAddin.dll is located in the '.../Program Files/Adobe/Acrobat 10.0/PDFMaker/Office' folder. If the file is missing, then reinstall Acrobat.
Note: Microsoft Office Applications disable add-ins as a failsafe if the application is prematurely closed (for example, if the system wasn't shut off properly or the application crashed).
Add the COM add-in file to the Windows registry.
In Windows Explorer, locate the COM add-in file (PDFMOfficeAddin.dll) and note the exact path, which may include spaces.
Choose Start > Run.
Type regsvr32 followed by a space, and then type the path that you noted in step 1, in quotation marks. For example: regsvr32 "C:\Program Files\Adobe\Acrobat 10.0\PDFMaker\Office\ PDFMOfficeAddin.dll "
Click OK, and then start the Office application.
Check if Acrobat PDFMaker Office COM Add-in is present in the list of available COM Add-ins for the Office Application.
Launch Microsoft Office program (Word, Excel, Access, or PowerPoint).
Click the Office button and choose '[Application name] Options'.
Click Add-Ins.
From the Manage Dropdown list select COM Add-ins and click Go.
Check the list for PDFMakerOfficeAddin and the checkbox in front of it is checked.
If the checkbox is not checked then check it, click OK and restart the Office application.
If the Office application doesn't allow you to check the checkbox and you have already tried Solution 1, then select Acrobat PDFMaker Office COM Add-in, click Remove and follw the next step.
If Adobe PDFMaker COM Add-in is not present in the list of available add-ins, then click Add and navigate to C:\Program Files\Adobe\Acrobat 10.0\PDFMaker\Office\. Select PDFMOfficeAddin.dll, click OK, then restart the Office application.

PDF-Maker launched from Outlook 2003 hangs suddenly

Hi there,
we have problems with the PDF-Maker plugin for office. The PDF-Printer itself is working, but when I try to convert an email to PDF the PDF-Maker window opens with the message "Adobe PDF wird erstellt" which means "Adobe PDF is being created", and nothing happes. The progress bar doesnt move, but also there is no error message raised, the window just stands there for several hours.
The affected users are all running CS4 Standard or Premium, and all of them told me that the problem didn't exist from the beginning, but started only ~ 10 days ago.
Has anybody an idea what the problem could be ? I even un- and reinstalled the complete CS4 suite on a machine, this did not help.
Thanks a lot in advance for your help

Hello everybody,
I am not quite thrilled by the idea of uninstalling a Microsoft patch in order to use this add-on. Leaving a known vulnerability unpatched at the expense of using an application feature is not my sense of complete security.
Is Adobe aware of the situation? Is there a fix available from Adobe? How can we engage Adobe on this?
Thanks in advance for all your answers and help in this matter.
Thanks
Mayank

}The issue I am facing is that with text area, the scroll bar is visible, which does not go with label. The label is being selected properly, but how to remove the scroll bar?

DVD SP is not Flash or Director and it sounds like you using "hotpots" are thinking more along those lines. If someone puts the DVD in a DVD Player they may get rather frustrated having buttons that do not do anything and the navgation is strange

How do I insert multiple images inline with text in Pages 5.0?

I have over 20 images in my iPhoto library that I want to insert in a document one after the other (inline with text).
How do I do this without having to insert them one by one and going into the image options to change the formatting? It's a pain to have to do it this way...
I tried using the media browser in Pages, but it seems you can only add them one by one. So I exported the pictures from iPhoto into a folder, selected them all in Finder and dragged them onto my document. All the images appeared stacked on top of each other in a random spot on my page. I can't select them all for some reason. So again, I have to click on them one by one to the formatting? Why is this not simpler? Am I missing something?

If you use the Help in your Pages 5 you will find the followings link http://help.apple.com/pages/mac/5.0/?lang=en#/tanca246d3ac

In large PDF files my cursor moves around the page at warp speed. It does not seem to make any difference if I slow it down with Sys Prefs. This is not only in preview but also other programs to open PDFs.

In large PDF files the cursor moves at warp speed with a mind of it's own, I've tried slowing it down in Sys Pref with no luck. On small files cursor action is normal. This happens in Safari, Preview and other programs that use PDF files. Sorry to say this does not seem to be a new problem with 7.# I've had it with prvevious versions of operating system Right now I'm using a Apple wireless mouse and key board. Using the USB keyboard and mouse the same problem does not go away.

Please read this whole message before doing anything.
This procedure is a test, not a solution. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
Step 1
The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is localized to your user account.
Enable guest logins* and log in as Guest. Don't use the Safari-only “Guest User” login created by “Find My Mac.”
While logged in as Guest, you won’t have access to any of your personal files or settings. Applications will behave as if you were running them for the first time. Don’t be alarmed by this; it’s normal. If you need any passwords or other personal data in order to complete the test, memorize, print, or write them down before you begin.
Test while logged in as Guest. Same problem?
After testing, log out of the guest account and, in your own account, disable it if you wish. Any files you created in the guest account will be deleted automatically when you log out of it.
*Note: If you’ve activated “Find My Mac” or FileVault, then you can’t enable the Guest account. The “Guest User” login created by “Find My Mac” is not the same. Create a new account in which to test, and delete it, including its home folder, after testing.
Step 2
The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party system modifications that load automatically at startup or login, by a peripheral device, by a font conflict, or by corruption of the file system or of certain system caches.
Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards, if applicable. Start up in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. You must hold down the shift key twice: once when you boot, and again when you log in.
Note: If FileVault is enabled, or if a firmware password is set, or if the boot volume is a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
Safe mode is much slower to boot and run than normal, with limited graphics performance, and some things won’t work at all, including sound output and Wi-Fi on certain models. The next normal boot may also be somewhat slow.
The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
Test while in safe mode. Same problem?
After testing, reboot as usual (not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of Steps 1 and 2.

Find text and replace with a pdf stored in the same folder

Hello,
I have a catalog that is updated every so often. I have written a script to find/replace the text from a .txt file. but i have a pdf that i want to insert that is part of it as well. Inside the .txt file i have the name of the document. and the pdf is stored inside the same folder as the original .indd and the .txt file.
can someone point me at some examples on how this could be done.
Thanks

I use this script: it puts a txt in a text frame, check the overflow and find/replace some words with a pdf. Hope this is helpful.

How to replace numbers with text in tax return pdf using Adobe Acrobat X Pro

How do I replace numbers with text in tax return pdf using Adobe Acrobat X Pro? The tax return was created using CCH software. Thanks for your review.

Thanks Bill for your quick reply. CCH software is one of the major
suppliers of tax return software. I found an internal source that helped me
make the changes from numbers to text i.e. "$123,456" to "See Schedule O".
I am not sure if I am working in form or final text. Thanks again! Kelly

Can we programmatically search, hightlight text and make annotations in PDF using JQuery?

How can i programmatically search, hightlight text and make annotations in PDF using JQuery?

JQuery is part of the OS and Acrobat/Reader is very isolated from the contact with the OS. If you were to write a plug-in in and add it to your copy of Acrobat/Reader you could then use that plug-in to access the OS shell.

PDF Maker problem in outlook using right to left text

Hello,
I am using the PDF Maker application in outlook (acrobat 7.0.5 and outlook 2002) which allows the user to convert an email message (or folder with messages) in the outlook to a PDF document.
My question is :
When the document contains languages from right to left (Hebrew), the converting PDF Maker process changes the letters order in the "from", "to" and the "subject" fields to be from left to right . The text in the message itself is in the right direction (right to left).
How can I overcome this issue ?
Thanks
Naomi

My acrobat version 7.0.5 does support ME languages

PDF Maker producing invisible text

When I use PDF Maker in Word 2003 SP3 on Windows XP SP3, some of the text in my headers and footers is rendered invisibly. It's still there in the PDF, becasue I can select it in Acrobat 7.0 Professional and even cut it to the clipboard. It's just invisible.
Curiously, not all header and footer text is affected. For example, left-hand page headers appear normally, right-hand headers are invisible.
If I print to Adobe PDF, rather than using PDF Maker, the headers and footers are fine.
This has only started happening recently. A few weeks ago, I had no problems.
Any ideas?

If you really have just 7.0, then try an update (download the updates from Adobe.com > downloads > updates). Be sure to install the updates in order. The last time I thought that the font issue was big was with AA5.0, but maybe it is still and issue.

I have created a .pdf form with text boxes, but the recipients are unable to fill in their answers.

How can I distribute a form with text boxes so that the recipients are able to type into the boxes?

This forum is for the Adobe FormsCentral (formscentral.adobe.com) which is a service that allows you to create, collect and analyze data using an online web form. You should ask PDF related form questions in the Acrobat forums: http://forums.adobe.com/community/acrobat/forms
I'll move your post to that forum so you don't need to retype it. They can help you out...

When converting word doc to pdf, my images with text only show the background color of the text box.

I have a word doc that I am trying to conver to pdf. I have jpegs with text boxes on top of them on one page. It looks great on the screen but after I convert to pdf, the text boxes only have half the text, the first half of the text box is just white - the background color. If I take the background color out of the text box, the text converts over fine but I need the background color.
I have tried many things here on the print settings, standard, high quality print, unchecking the compression on the images. Any help?

My hard drive died last week, and I needed to install a new one. Previously, I was able to save a .doc with text and inserted photo to .pdf and then to .jpg. Now I can get the .pdf but can't determine what to do to convert to .jpg. Does anyone know ?

Rather than do that, which means starting over from scratch, losing all your edits, organisation and so on, why not simply use iPhoto Library Manager to revert the Library to the older version? Easier, less destructive.
The instructions on that are here
If you really want to start over: you can access the Originals folder simply by going to your Pictures Folder and finding the iPhoto Library there. Right (or Control-) Click on the icon and select 'Show Package Contents'. A finder window will open with the Library exposed.
