Automatically display newly created document

I'm using Acrobat XI Pro and need to figure out why newly created pdf files do not automatically display on the screen. I had to purchase a new hard drive for additional space and reloaded Win 7 Pro and all programs. On the old setup, whenever I created a new pdf by printing to the Adobe PDF Printer, the new document automatically displayed full screen. On the new setup, the pdf is created, but my current program still takes precedence on the screen. The pdf icon appears in the taskbar and glows looking for me to click on it, but I don't want that extra step. I just want the new pdf to take over and appear full screen. I do have "view Adobe pdf results" checked so that is not the problem. Any thoughts on how to get windows to automatically switch to the newly created pdf?

Thanks for the response:
It's not a relocation, but a complete fresh install. So that should not be the problem and everything else about it is fine.
The pulsating taskbar icon is just telling me that there is a new document that hasn't been clicked on yet. This is simply the typical Windows behavior of launching a program but not switching to it so yes it is in fact already open. It's just not taking precedence over the other programs. It's basically opening in the background.
Double clicking on a pdf  displays them full screen.
If Acrobat is already running, it behaves the way I want so maybe you are on to something there.
So if all instances of Acrobat are closed, newly created pdfs just give me the blinking taskbar icon until I click on it. If I already have one pdf open (even if I am not looking at it), the newly created pdf automatically opens full screen, which is what I want.
Any idea what could cause this behavior? It's almost like Windows will only give it some sort of priority if it is already running. You can see on the image below what I am getting. It will stay this color until I click on it. I'm trying to avoid this.

  • Accessing the newly created document number

    Hi,
    I was able to create an invoice successfully.
    I am using the ICOMPANY object to capture the newly created document number as comp.getnewobjectkey().
    But the number i get is different from what is created in the system.
    For example. i receive the number as 28590 from method comp.getnewobjectkey() but the actual invoice number in the system is 28587.
    Any ideas on why this is happening?
    Thanks
    Ramakanth

    Hi Ramakanth,
    GetNewObjectKey will return you the DocEntry value not the Docnumber.
    If you need the docnumber, run a query. "SELECT DocNum FROM OINV WHERE DocEntry = 28590

  • Is there a way to automatically display a Word document in Print Layout view?

    I am using Report Generation Toolkit (v.1.0.1). After displaying the report, the view in Microsoft Word is always "Normal." It would be really nice to automatically show it in "Print Layout" view. (i.e. in Word, go to View >> Print Layout) Is there a way to do this programmatically through the vi? I'm using LV 7.1 and Windows 2000. Thanks,

    Hey dj143
    The best way to do something like that is with property nodes.You can do this the easy, by going into word and recording a macro. Then look at the macro and duplicate it using property nodes.here is a vi that I did for you that answer your question

  • When combining PDFs Acrobat XI Pro crashes. It manages to save the newly created document but the resulting crash is really frustrating. Any input would be welcome, thanks!

    Just as the post said, I have a user that frequently combines PDFs. When she tries to combine documents, it crashes, although it does save the new document.
    The crash takes away from her productivity and she isn't pleased as this was also happening with Acrobat 9 Pro that we just upgraded from. Any ideas on why
    this is occurring would be most welcome. Thanks!

    Acrobat versions prior to 9 had a bug which allowed you to do what you did. In Acrobat 9 this bug was fixed. In order to do what you want you need to certify (apply special certification digital signature with your certificate -- it is "Certify (Visible/Invisible)" choice in the "Work with Certificates") your document first. In the process of certification you can specify which modification permissions you allow the users of your document to make after signing. Certification signature must be the first signature in the document.

  • Automatic type detection when creating document from InputStream in Java

    Hello all,
    I'm trying to write a batch load program in Java, that connects to an Informix database, reads from a large document table the equivalent of BLOB fields (in Informix, a TEXT field) to a Java InputStream, and then, creates a document in iFS from this stream.
    Almost everything works, but since I have no indication of what document type the stream is, I have no clue of what name should the newly created document in iFS have.
    Knowing that the original documents can only be Word docs or TIFF images, is there any way for iFS to autodetect the document type, so it can be created with the right extension (in my case, .doc or .tif)? I'm thinking about some API class that peeks inside the stream and do some kind of autodetection based on the doc header or something, but I really don't know if it exists.
    Any help will be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

    Hi Luis, (funny, first time I ever see a 'Luis' like me in a Forum, with 's' and all),
    I have a column indicating the type in the original database, but of about 220000 documents, 40000 have a null in this field (talk about strong constraint enforcement - the field does not have any constraint at all!).
    I made a size checking and found that the tif images have around 100-150Kb, and most of the docs are much smaller, so I´ll make a guess and create the docs based on size. Once they are created as documents in iFS, I think it will be easier to detect and correct the type using some windows-based tool.
    Thanks for your reply!

  • Create document item from list, then no lookups

    SharePoint 2013: I have a content type set up in a document library with a default document template attached (in this case an excel workbook file).
    In SPD 2013 (using a 2010 workflow), I can use the "Create Item in List" function in SPD from an adjacent list on the same site collection to create a record in the document library, and set the content type such that when the workflow is done there
    is indeed a new document waiting for me in the doc library, utilizing the expected template file.
    The issue:
    The output of the "Create Item in List" function is the ID of the item created.  Using the Create variable, I believe I should be able to immediately lookup attributes of the newly created Document item, such as the last modified date and URLs.
     I'm doing the lookups within the output of a Log (to workflow history) function.  However, certain fields always come back blank.  Performing the same lookup, using a known Document item ID (created in another w/f session) is successful.  It
    would be nice to email out a URL of the file I just created from the same workflow.
    I've tried having the W/F wait up to 5 minutes, but it appears that certain attributes cannot ever be retrieved in the same workflow, while others can indeed be retrieved (GUID of the new doc is successful, for instance).
    I've read some online debate related to this, but I can't find anyone having the exact same issue as me, nor explain why it's happening.  It seems like it should be so straightforward.  Any ideas?  Thanks!

    Hi,
    According to your description, my understanding is that you create a document library item using “Create item in list ” action and when you log some certain attributes of the item to workflow history list, then
    it has no value.
    I try to reproduce this issue with your steps and it works as expected in my environment.
    For a better troubleshooting, I suggest you do as the followings:
    1. Check if the certain new created item field has value in the list which always return blank.
    2. I suggest you can create a new simple workflow to log the field data for new created item to workflow history list to test if it works.
    3. If the issue still exists, I suggest you can track the workflow using Fiddler. You can see detailed web request for the workflow, it will be easier to find the cause of this issue.

  • Using a newly created Library document to create a list item and attach itself

    I have a workflow that moves a document from one library to another.
    When a document is moved to a certain library I want to create a list item with a link to the document in the list item.  Keep in mind there could be 10 files submitted to the library, so then in my list I would want 10 new list items created for
    each file, with a link to the individual file. or is there a way to attach the document to a newly created list item programmatically?
    is this possible?

    Hi,
    According to your post, my understanding is that you wanted to use a newly created Library document to create a list item and attach itself.
    I recommend to create a workflow assocaited to the second library, and start the workflow automatically when an item is created.
    Then add action as below:

  • Officejet Pro 8620 will not print old documents, only newly created ones

    When I use the driver designed for the printer I can only print documents (Word, Excel, and Publish 2007) that are new, as long as I have not copied and pasted or inserted sheets from previously created documents.  It will not print any Outlook 2007 emails but it prints PDF's fine. Also, the printer works fine with driver for deskjet 990c but limits my options on page size and the margin on the right side won't change and are way to big for most of my documents.  Any thoughts?

  • Connect content of archive link with newly created kpro document

    Hi all,
    i hope this the right plase to post my question. Unfortunatelly i did not find any SAP Records Management Topic.
    The issue is:
    i am able to create a new document in Records Management with the FM:
    SRM_DOCUMENT_CREATE
    But,  what  is not realy clear for me, how can i connect content of archive link with newly created kpro document.
    Thanks and Best regards,
    AT.

    Hi Attila,
    there is a difference between SRM_DOCUMENT_CREATE and ArchiveLink Documents.
    If you use the SAP Standard Service Provider for Documents SRM_SP_DOCUMENT this
    will refere to so called KPRO-Documents (KnowledgeProvider). This is totally different to
    common ArchiveLink scenarios.
    If you would like to use ArchiveLink Docs with attributes, there is the property unification in WebAS 6.40 available.

  • Displaying Image in Document Category Created through N2T6

    Hi Experts,
           I am Creating a Document Category in ISH from Tcode N2T6 i want to display the image on the Screen Created  for Document   Category.
             Please let me know how to display image in document category.
    Regards,
    Rajesh

    Hi Rajesh,
    there are a few options to integrate images into a PMD application. At the end it depends on your use case. For example an image taken by CT would be shown using an external application, the DICOM viewer. On the other hand a simple picture used for illustration purpose can be easily integrated.
    In case you want to use an external application, I would recommend to implement a button in the PMD or the application toolbar to call the viewer application.
    In case you want to embed the picture into the PMD you have to utilize a Link element. There are a few implementations shipped with the standard delivery. For details check the online help [here|http://help.sap.com/erp2005_ehp_05/helpdata/en/4d/c7854878c86d4be10000000a42189e/frameset.htm] In paticular please check the PICTURE link element type.
    In addition you can also implement your custom link element type.
    Also I would like to share with you, that in the next delivery, Siemens will shipped a link element type for image management. It was designed to work with various image management services, but for now we have a implementation with imagic ims only.
    Hope this helps.
