Attachments and RTF format

Hello.
I'm using Mail 3.1 (OSX 10.5.1) and I noticed an odd something. I switch on the following options :
1. Edition -> Attachments -> always send windows-friendly attachments
2. Edition -> Attachments -> always insert attachments at end of message
That works perfectly when I send «plain text emails». But, when I want to send «RTF emails» and I look to the source of those emails, I have :
--Apple-Mail-3--371093136
Content-Type: text/html;
charset=US-ASCII
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit
<html>
<body style="word-wrap: break-word; -webkit-nbsp-mode: space; -webkit-line-break: after-white-space; ">Test de html
</body>
</html>
--Apple-Mail-3--371093136
Content-Disposition: attachment;
filename=VRALLY2.GAM
Content-Type: application/octet-stream;
x-unix-mode=0700;
name="VRALLY2.GAM"
Content-Transfer-Encoding: base64
/2nTRRiPyqMzpB6IKr0SkWDyTtl861LEqd+F7U/ZY/XJYj9zlhW4LPpsJ0
--Apple-Mail-3--371093136
Content-Type: text/html;
charset=US-ASCII
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit
<html><body style="word-wrap: break-word; -webkit-nbsp-mode: space; -webkit-line-break: after-white-space; "></body></html>
--Apple-Mail-3--371093136--
The question is : «Why is there something after the attachment, whereas I activate the option 2. ?»
Notice that <html><body style="word-wrap: break-word; -webkit-nbsp-mode: space; -webkit-line-break: after-white-space; "></body></html> displays nothing, it is useless ! And that is interpreted as an attachment (Part 1.1.3) in Outlook and Thunderbird.

Yes, it creates an attachment called "Part 1.x" with Thunderbird and Outlook Express.
It is not a big problem but many people who don't know about informatics will open the Part 1.x, and will say : "There is nothing in your attachment". I'm afraid for "official emails".

Crystal report 8.5 export to csv and rtf format not working with office 2013

Hi Experts,
Crystal report version 8.5 hangs and eventually crash when i export my report to csv or rtf format on windows 7 with office 2013 installed, code is written in VB 6 although the same scenario is working with office 2010 installed.
i debugged the code and found the application hangs at function Report.Export(False).
below is the code snippet
       .PDFExportAllPages = True 'ePDFExportAllPages
       .PDFFirstPageNumber = ePDFFirstPageNumber
       .PDFLastPageNumber = ePDFLastPageNumber
       .RTFExportAllPages = True 'eRTFExportAllPages
       .RTFFirstPageNumber = eRTFFirstPageNumber
       .RTFLastPageNumber = eRTFLastPageNumber
       .UseReportDateFormat = eUseReportDateFormat
       .UseReportNumberFormat = eUseReportNumberFormat
       .UseReportNumberFormat = eUseReportNumberFormat
       .XMLAllowMultipleFiles = eXMLAllowMultipleFiles
       .XMLFileName = eXMLFileName
     Report.Export (False) ----Application hangs here and eventually crash
Looking forward for your help, as it is very urgent
Regards
Mohit

Hi Mohit
CR 8.5, being about 15 years old, does not support Windows 7. I am surprised this works for you with MS Office 2010 and to be honest, I'd consider my self lucky there. The fact that is does not work with office 2013... well, like I said, lucky with Office 2010 and your luck ran out with Office 2013.
Your option; rewrite the app in VS 2010 / 2012 / 2013 and use the CR Assemblies for VS .NET from SAP Crystal Reports, Developer Version for Visual Studio .NET. The CR Java SDK would be another option.

How to open Report output in RTF format using concurrent request form.

Hi
I have created a report using BI publisher and RTF format. This report is working fine in PDF format. User can submit report using consurrent request form and can see report preview in PDF format.
Now user wants to submit another request and wants to see report output in RTF format.
User submitted a request, request successfully completed and generated a output RTF file in unix box but when user wants to see report output using concurrent request form (View Output) then window is showing raw data instead of RTF output.
Can any body tell me about solutions?
Thanks
Ravi

Hi Ravi
I did little R&D on it and found following 2 solutions.I am sure that you also find something but for my shake i am putting it here.If you already find the solution then ignore it.
I) 1st Solution
1)Change the profiles 'Viewer: Application for Text' and put value as 'Browser'
2) Change the profiles 'Viewer: Text' and put value as 'Browser'.Either change it system level or concerned user.
3) Log out from Current session and close all internet explorer application.
4) Log in again to check the result
II) 2nd Solution
1) Navigate to: Sys admin --> Install -> Viewer Options to open the Form "Viewer Options".
Do the entry as shown below:
File_Format     Mime Type               Description
RTF          application/rtf Microsoft Word(.rtf)
RTF          application/msword          Microsoft Word(.rtf)
2) Then ensure that the profile option Viewer: Application for Text is set to BLANK at the Site Level and User Level.
3) Then ensure that the profile option Viewer: Text is set to 'browser' at the Site Level.
-- It will pop-up the screen to choose application name from above two values.
Hope this will work it for you. For me i replicated the scenario and both solutions were working for me.
With Best Regards

How do you extract attachments from an emails in RTF-Format

When ever the XI receives an eMail in RTF-Format the XI can not extract the eMail-attachment. Does someone have the same problem? Is there a solution?
Thanks

RTF is a proprietary format of Microsoft and therfore cannot processed by the XI mail adapter.

Generating BIP report in RTF format generates blank report

Hi all,
When generating a BIP report in RTF format the report output is blank!?
If I run the report in any other format the report displays the data correctly.
We're running siebel 8.1.1.2 and BIP 10.1.3.4.1.
When looking at the size of the report when the 'File Download' window appears it seem like the report contains data as the size is 62KB, compared to the pdf format which do display data is 20KB. The output generates the amount of pages that is needed for the report, but all pages are blank.
The report is an activity List report with just one for-each statement in it.
Has anybody come across the same?
Regards,
Hakan

Hi alka,
To invoke Word automatically, use command
line options DESTYPE=CACHE,
DESFORMAT=RTF and MIMETYPE=application/msword.
This is an example URL: http://webserver:80/cg-bin/rwcgi60.exe?module
=test.rdf&userid=scott/tiger@mydb&
destype=cache&desformat=rtf&mimetype=application/msword&server=myrepserver
1. Check the appropriate mimetype setting for Word by Starting Windows Explorer,
choose View -> Options from the menu, go to the File Type tab, find Microsoft
Word Document in this list, click Edit, and get the value for Content Type
(MIME). This is the value that needs to be used in the MIMETYPE command line
option, and it will typically be application/msword, but may differ on
different machines.

Report Server: RTF format on Solaris gives Core Dump

We have Report Server 6.0.8.11.2 on Solaris.
We are running reports thru URL and it is working fine for PDF and HTML. When we specify the desformat as RTF it gives Segmentation Fault Core dumped.
We have tried using rwcli60 thru command line and it gives the same error, while PDF and HTML format is fine.
Is there a patchset for Solaris for the same or are we missing on some parameter?

Converting from PDF directly to Java Objects/XML (and PDF format questions)

Hi,
I posted this originally in the Acrobat Windows forums but was told I might have more luck here, so here goes:
I am desperately trying to find a tool (preferably open source but commercial is fine also) that will sit on top of a PDF and allow me to query it's text for content and formatting (I don't care about images). I have found some tools that get me part of the way there, but nothing that seems to provide an end-to-end solution but is quite lightweight. My main question is WHY are there so many tools that go from PDF to RTF, and many tools that go from RTF to XML, but NONE that I can find that go PDF to XML.
To clarify, by formatting I simply mean whether a line/block of text is bold/italic, and its font size. I am not concerned with exact position on the page. The background is that I will be searching PDFs and assigning importance to whether text is a heading/bodytext etc. We already have a search tool in place so implementing a pure PDF search engine is not an option. I need a lightweight tool that simply allows me to either make calls directly to the PDF OR converts to XML which I can parse.
Some tools I have tried:
1) PDFBox (Java Library) - Allows the extraction of text content easily, but doesn't seem to have good support for formatting.
2) JPedal (Java Library) - Allows extraction of text content easily, and supports formatting IF XML structured data is in the PDF (not the case for my data).
3) Nitro PDF (Tool) + RTF to XML (script) - This works quite nicely and shows that PDF to XML is possible, but why do I have to use 2 tools? Also, these are not libraries I can integrate into my app.
4) iText (Java Library) - Seems great at creating PDFs but poor at extracting content.
I don't really expect someone to give me a perfect solution (although that would be nice!).
Instead, what I'd like to know is WHY tools support PDF to RTF/Word/whatever retaining formatting, and other tools support RTF to XML with the formatting information retained. What is it about PDF and RTF/Word that makes it feasible to convert that way, but not to XML. Also, as I found in 3) above, it is perfectly feasible to end up as XML from PDF, so why do no tools support this reliably!
Many thanks for any advice from PDF gurus.

XML doesn't mean anything - it's just a generic concept for structuring
information. You need a specific GRAMMAR of XML to mean anything. So what
grammar would you use? Something standard? Make up your own?
However, there are a number of commercial and open source products that can
convert PDF to various XML grammars - SVG, ABW, and various custom grammars.
But the other thing you need to understand is that most PDF files do not
have any structure associated with them (as you saw when using JPEDAL). As
such, any concepts of paragraphs/sections/tables/etc. Are WILD GUESSES by
the software in question.

Wordpad object in rtf format - XML publisher

We are trying to insert a Wordpad OLE object(Printer Signature Escape code Sequence) in the xml template and trying to generate the xml report in rtf format. When we generate the report or preview in rtf format the inserted Object Contents are not displaying. Any one faced this issue in xml publisher.
This is what I did.
1.Open the XML template. In Word under Insert option Selected Object . Select the object type as Word Pad Object(In Create new Tab). Type somethinng.. I typed this as printer escapecode sequence ~(4B~(s1p53v0s
2.Loaded the XML data and tried to preview in RTF format the Object disappears and nothing displays in the place of Obejct.
When I preview in PDF format this displays. but PDF format is not supported by our troy printer.
This is we are doing to get the signature with printer escape code. It would be great if any one have any alternatives?. They are not going to give the Signature as an image.

This is the General XML forum.
The homepage description says :
Discussion of the general XML language, standards (XSLT, XQuery, XMLSchema, etc.) and application management issues, suggestions and tips.
The BI Publisher forum is here :BI Publisher
So please mark this post as answered and ask again over there.

Initial-page-number not working in RTF format output

A report has a parameter for the page number to start with. In rtf template below code is present
<?initial-page-number:xdoxslt:ifelse(P_FIRST_PAGE_NUM!=’’,number(P_FIRST_PAGE_NUM),1)?>
The report page number starts with the value which we pass in p_first_page_num in PDF format but in rtf format output it always starts with 1.
Is initial-page-number not supported in RTF format output ? If not then what is the alternative?

the method u followed is fine as need a page number staring from a specify value which u input.
@section is only for resetting page number to 1 for every group and for that pdf and ppt will be fine but only for rtf u need to use that ( pressing F9).
u can use @section and initial page number combined but they give u same output as get now. rtf output wont support it will only reset 1 every time
What ever u do rtf output wont support initial page number code ..........
i mentioned that F9 work around to mention that it is the only work around u have upto now to control rtf output with regards to page number.
Guru's correct me if i am wrong. wait for a day or two if some one from guru's confirm it .
If u need real confirmation raise an SR oracle will let u know .

How can I embed files of word, excel, and pdf format in a pdf document

I have a word document of the product, which I am updating for next product release. However, there are some excel, word, and pdf files embedded within a word document. When I double click these embedded files in word, these files open in a new window. However, we deliver documentation to the customer in the pdf format. Therefore, when I am converting the word document in the pdf format, only an icon of the embedded file is displayed and the files do not open in a new window. Can someone let me know how can I embed these files (in word, excel, and pdf format) in a pdf document?

You must attach them to the PDF file after it is created. You cannot embed file attachments onto a page as you can with Word.

HP Officejet Pro 8600 won't save scanned document in searchable PDF or .rtf format

HP Officejet Pro 8600 won't save scanned document in searchable PDF or .rtf format
The scanner scans the document without a problem but when I select 'SAVE' and
specify a location and file name, a system error 'The HP scan application was
unable to save the file to the specified location'. It will save a regular PDF file
or a JPG file with no problem, but trying to save an searchable PDF or .rtf file
results in the above mentioned system error.
This problem occurs either from HP SCAN or from the 8600 scan panel.
The computer is running Windows XP and the I.R.I.S. OCR software is
loaded.

Hello TrailsEnd,
Welcome to the HP Forums!
I understand you're receiving an error message "The HP scan application was unable to save the file to the specified location". I will do my best to assist you!
First, I would recommend downloading this tool called the Print and Scan Doctor. This tool diagnoses and helps resolve common printing, scanning, and connectivity problems, including: (This information is stated here.)

Let me know if this tool fixes a scanning problem on this post. If this doesn't resolve your issue, then I am going to recommend uninstalling the software. Please follow this HP document on Uninstalling the Printer Software.
Once this is complete, you can perform a clean boot on your computer. I will provide a Microsoft document here to help you. This helps eliminate software conflicts that occur when you install a program or an update or when you run a program. Now, you can install the full feature software from the HP website here.
Please post your results, as I will be looking forward to hearing from you. Have a great day!

Mail attachments and forwarding as attachments

Since upgrading to Yosimite 10.10.1 Mail will not work with attachments saying that it cannot find the downloads folder. If you forward as an attachment the icon is not in mail format or recognised.

Hi Chateaubugs
Open Mail.app, make sure you see the Message Viewer window.
Click on the menu Edit > Attachments and enable
- Always send windows-friendly attachments
- Always insert attachment at the end of the message.
Outlook is not good at showing embedded media content from Mail.app. It likes to have them, where it's expecting them - at the end of a message.
A hint: Make sure you have at least a part of your message (for example your signature) typed before you attach a file to a message. This is because of a small issue when attaching mails at the end of a message: If you have nothing typed, there is no end to attach to. It will fail.
