Automating a link and Updating pages in Acrobat

I've a report created in Microsoft Access and exported as a PDF file. I've also created several links in the PDF document to make it user friendly. There are 5 pages that are updated on a daily basis (Exported from Access and appended to the existing document). I'm new to Acrobat JavaScripting and would like to automate the PDF creation by doing the following;
1. Automatically append/update the 5 new PDF pages to the existing document.
2. Automatically create/update links based on a particular text in the updated pages PDF pages.
I sincerely appreciate any help I can get on this.

I've a Task Scheduler that open Access and runs a macro that pull data from an external server and a report is created based on this data. When the Access database is closed, the updated reports are saved as PDF to a particular folder. I'll like to update the existing PDF Document with the newly created PDF files/pages.

  • Default value in LOV field in Create and Update page in OAF

    Hi All,
    I am unable to default LOV field in Create and Update page in OAF.
    I tried in below way :
    OAMessageLovInputBean lovBean1 = (OAMessageLovInputBean)webBean.findChildRecursive("AAA");
    But I am getting developer mode exception, so please guide me how i can set the default value for create and update page instead of using code in process request method in controller.
    Thanks

    Hi,
    1) In case of create, you can default the value either in EOImpl or in AM while initializing the row:
    //in EOImpl
    public void create(AttributeList attributeList)
    super.create(attributeList);
    setXXAttribute(<value>);
    //in AM, VO new row initialization :-
    VOImpl VO = getVO1();
    VO.setMaxFetchSize(0);
    VORowImpl row = (VORowImpl)VO.createRow();
    row.setXXAttribute(<value>);
    VO.insertRow(row);
    row.setNewRowState(Row.STATUS_INITIALIZED);
    2) In case of update, execute the VO (also set the where clause if required) in PR method of update page.

  • Hi guys. i have some problem with a link from a pdf on-line,when i click on it,the page adds a "%" at the and of the link and says "page not found" because of it

    Hi guys. i have some problem with a link from a pdf on-line,when i click on it,the page adds a "%" at the and of the link and says "page not found" because of it.
    This happens only when a load my pdf file on my server, because if i click on the link when the file is on my iPad, the page opens without problem.
    Any help please?
    thanx

    the % sign is often used when there's a space in a name. HTML doesn't like spaces so it fills them with % or %20
    try, on the end of that link, see if there's a space built into the page or the link when the page was made
    On the web address you may be able to 'backspace' at the end and erase that space to get the address, but whomever made the page possibly put a mistake in the link

  • All of a sudded, my firefox browser isnt allowing my to click links and open pages, or open anything on the top area of the screen.

    All of a sudded, my firefox browser isnt allowing my to click links and open pages, or open anything on the top area of the screen. For example i go to my email and i cant click on inbox, send, create, folders, mark as unread. It is like this on every website?? Its really annoying i cant do anything becasue most sites have login at the top of the screen and i cant login to anything.

    That problem can be caused by the Yahoo! Toolbar that extents too much downwards and covers the top part of the browser window and thus makes links in that part of the screen not clickable.

  • ORA-20001: Unable to create query and update page.

    I am using the wizard: Form on a table with report 2 pages. I do not change any of the values when using the wizard (just taking all default values)
    I created over 10 pages successfully already.
    When creating the one page, I received this error on clicking the 'Finish' button
    Error creating query and update.
    Return to Application
    ORA-20001: Unable to create query and update page. ORA-12899: value too large for column "FLOWS_010500"."WWV_FLOW_PAGE_PLUGS"."PLUG_QUERY_COL_ALLIGNMENTS" (actual: 269, maximum: 255)
    Seems like it might be table related since I can continue and create more forms/reports on other tables.
    Any help would be appreciated.

    336554,
    Looks like there is a 127-column limit on the number of report columns supported when using that wizard. Do you have more than that?

  • Safari's mail link and mail page options cause system wide hang

    I am having a very odd and serious problem with mail/safari in the 10.4.6 update
    When I select mail contents of this page or mail link to this page from the file menu and mail is NOT open it causes the entire system to hang and the only option is to reboot
    I tried to mail a page when mail was open and I didn't have any trouble
    I have seen several posts that are similar but don't involve safari's mail link issue
    If someone knows of a more appropriate area please direct me there
    Thanks
    Mac Mini   Mac OS X (10.4.6)  

    I usually don't use this feature with the Mail.app quit but it shouldn't make any difference.
    As a test, I quit the Mail.app and used Mail Contents of This Page from Safari. The Mail.app launched without any problems and a new Mail.app message opened with the contents of the selected web page copied to the message.
    As a first step, I suggest Resolving Disk, Permission, and Cache Corruption for system troubleshooting procedures and when doing so, follow all steps/instructions in the order provided.
    Did you check the hard drive for any directory problems with Disk First Aid repair via Disk Utility when booted from your Tiger install disc before installing the 10.4.6 update and did you quit all running applications before the install?

  • Is it possible to link and update external files in a Indesign document when sharing the Indesign file in Creative Cloud with multiple users?

    I am new to Creative Cloud, but have been using Adobe software for many years.
    Now we are considering sharing an Indesign file with my project group using CC.
    The Indesign file contains links to external files (one Illustrator and multiple .txt files); and we export the approved version to an Hi-Res PDF.
    These .txt files are currently hosted on our internal server but have not been linked directly: we first copy them over to local desktop and update the links in Indesign before creating a new PDF. 
    Since these file can be update by different people we would like to keep them outside the Indesign and Illustrator files.
    Is it still possible with CC to link directly to the files on our server in Indesign and see if there have been updated?
    Or can they also be stored in the CC cloud? Or is there another method?
    Thanks in advance for any help or suggestions
    Ronald

    This will work if you all use the file syncing of the Creative Cloud desktop application and then you use the Collaborate option for the folder containing all the files. Then it will work on each of your desktops.
    Links to files will not work in the browser when viewing the InDesign document from https://creative.adobe.com/files.

  • Linking and updating colors across multiple illustrator files

    Is there a way to link and automatically update color swatches across multiple illustrator files (CS4)?
    I've saved swatches into an ASE file, and opened the ASE file into multiple illustrator files, but the secondary files don't seem to reference back to the ASE file, when a new version with changes to the swatches has been made.
    Thanks for any advice.

    @SP/RAA
    Jean posted perhaps the best solution for your problem.
    A template is an Illustrator document for startup. You can create a document...place all the colors you want to the Swatches panel....insert contents to symbol, brushes, graphic styles and so on. Then you can go File > Save as Template.
    Now...when you want to start a new document..you could File > New from Template. Then new document will have all the stuffs of the template, including other specifications like rulers viewed...guides...
    But even using template you cannot update a batch of documents...The template is only a document for start...and it does not keep linked to new documents based on it.
    Or you try via script (do not know how further it would help) or try the alternative given by Jean.

  • Automator click link on web page

    Is there a way to use Automator to click a link on a web page? I print to a Toshiba copier that requires me to input a code to validate the print job. I would like Automator to:
    1. Go to the web page (on our intranet) in Safari
    2. Click the bullet for my print job
    3. Select "Release" to release the print job, which brings a popup screen
    4. Type in a pre-programmed print code (five digit number) in the entry box on the popup screen
    5. Click the "Enter" radio button on the popup screen
    6. Close the Safari window.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    hi
    thanks.
    giving the link is a little bit difficult: 
    when i copy the link that is embedded in the graphic advertising the product, it initially resolves to a double-click site, but then eventually resolves to the iTunes app store Safari page advertising that product.  it is after that page is resolved in Safari that the mac App Store app opens automatically and goes straight to apple server page that advertises that product.
    I can give you the link to the apple page itself, but thats not the problem because that link does not subsequently open the App Store app.
    i hesitate to give the name of the product in this forum for obvious reasons.
    its just so odd - this automatically opening an app. never seen it before happening on a mac. thats why i thought if the App Store app was just a browser window that that behaviour would be acceptable (even though I so have Safari set to open in a new tab  - not a completely new window).
    if you email me i will send you the very very long link that can be copied that is embedded in the graphic, and i can send you a screen shot of the safari page it is happening on.
    since ads are so much specific to what ever IP address /  region / country you access it from, even if you have the same web link to the original site where this ad is currently on there is no guarantee you will see that ad when you access that site since your location is different from mine.
    i wonder if apple is testing a new jump that goes direct from an ad such as this directly to opening App Store, eventually bypassing the intermediate apple explanation page.
    stumped.
    thanks

  • Preserving PDF links and actions created in Acrobat after editing in Illustrator

    I created an interactive PDF in Acrobat from an Illustrator file saved as a PDF.  It's basically an interactive prototype that simulates dropdown menus, highlighted selections and navigation between screens.  Using the Link Tool, I set layers to appear through the layer visibility action, and certain layers to toggle through javascript.  Since the prototype is evolving, however, I have to periodically make minor edits to it in Illustrator.  Once I make an edit and save the PDF again, when I open up the saved document in Acrobat, all the link tool actions are gone.  This is highly frustrating because most of the edits take just a minute or two in Illustrator, but I have to re-create all the links in Acrobat when I'm done, which takes a very long time.  How can I make minor edits in Illustrator while preserving the action elements I created in Acrobat?

    Well, that's a bummer.  It's so close to a feasible workflow for generating quick early-stage prototypes that you can continue to work on. 
    Thanks for the info.

  • How to search a word and its page in Acrobat 6.0 using vb6.0

    Hi all,
    I would like to search a word and its corresponding page number in my PDF document. The word may be occur in many of the pages and i have to collect all the page numbers and need to create bookmark for all of them.
    Eg: The word "Chennai" can be found in the pages 5, 6, 7 and10. Then I need to create bookmarks Chennai1 - Page 5, Chennai2 - Page 6 and so on...
    I have tried this with Acrobat 7.0 professional and it was working fine. But in 6.0 Professional i am not able to collect all the pages. Below I have given the code that i have used.
    Dim objFind As Acrobat.CAcroAVDoc
    Set objFind = CreateObject("AcroExch.AVDoc")
    Do While objFind.FindText("MyText", 0, 1, False)
                    Dim objPageView As Acrobat.CAcroAVPageView
                    Set objPageView = objFind.GetAVPageView
                    strPageNo = objPageView.GetPageNum + 1
                    If strPageNo = strPrevPageNo Then
                        intIncremental = intIncremental + 1
                    Else
                        intIncremental = 0

  • Linking and updating between photoshop and illustrator cs6

    Im using CS6 and it used to work fine, I'm not sure if I disabled a option somewhere but now It doesn't update the files when I make changes.
