Best practise for creating monochrome PDFs @ 600dpi

At work I deal almost exclusively with 600dpi bitmap / monochrome scans which I assemble into pdfs.
I tend to use photoshop to get things ready, at the right size, as a bunch of tifs, then I use acrobat file->merge files into a single pdf to make a pdf.
My scans are all A4 sized at 600dpi. I find them a bit sluggish to open and view in acrobat, despite having a superfast computer. Not really slow, just not as fast as other pdfs when I flick the scroll wheel. I wonder what is the best way to optimise my 600dpi images in acrobat so they display a little faster, without reducing the quality too much? Perhaps it's a file compression thing?
If anyone has any good tips I'm all ears. Thanks

Hi,
The first one is the best option (copy and paste as deltalink) as the new changes on upgrade are visible in your custom iviews,pages,worksets.so you need not to manually do those changes again.Thats an advantage.
Thanks.

What are the best options for creating a PDF with bookmarks and a hyperlinked TOC?

What I'm interested in is whether or not there is an alternate process I could follow that would side step Word 2011's inability to export to PDF with bookmarks and hyperlinked TOCs. How do you create PDF documents with bookmarks and hyperlinked TOCs in your documents?
Some background:
In Word 2010 and 2013 for Windows (and I'm sure this applies to older versions as well), you can export documents to a PDF file format where the exported file will carry over the bookmarks and hyperlinked table of contents. Specifically, by making specific text headers, will appear in the final PDF file as bookmarks on the side (see image taken from Adobe's website).
Regarding the table of contents, using Word's built in Table of Contents feature successfully ports the ability to navigate to a specific section by clicking on its chapter in the table of contents to the finished PDF file.
I've read several forum discussions that say it's not possible to do this from Word 2011, so my current solution is to just finish all documents on a Windows machine (either with parallels or a separate computer). The alternate process flow of creating a word document, exporting it to PDF, then rehyperlinking everything in Acrobat is just too time consuming to consider.

Hi, beejasaurus
I found a possible kluge from this discussion here
https://forums.adobe.com/thread/1008480
Create the hyperlinks in Word, save the file
Open that file with Pages, export as PDF.
The links work from that PDF.
Note, I did not try this with TOC but it worked with hyperlinks embedded in the Word document

Best practise for creating an application that connects to a SQL Server database

I have created an application that connects to a SQL Server database and views information using a datagrid and performs several updates when a button
is selected.
I have created a SQLcontrol.vb using the following code:

I am fairly new to vb.net and have read a few books and followed a few tutorials on youtube, what I would like to know is, are there any disadvantages
to the way I have connected to a SQL database using the SQLControl.vb. A lot of the vb books include data adapter and dataset within the form, I'm not sure if I'm following best practice by have the connection details outside of the form.
My other question is, I have created two connections in the SQLControl and call these connections within the same form using the same data adapter
and dataset. It all works fine but I just wanted to know of any potential issues?
Public SQLCon As New SqlConnection With {.ConnectionString
= "Data Source=;Initial Catalog=;Integrated Security=True"}
'connection 2
    Public SQLCon1 As New SqlConnection With {.ConnectionString
= "Data Source;Initial Catalog=;Integrated Security=True"}
Thanks

My other question is, I have created two connections in the SQLControl and call these connections within the same form using the same data adapter and dataset. It all works fine but
I just wanted to know of any potential issues
1) You are not using Sepration of concerns for a solution that is doing data access, like using a DAL.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Separation_of_concerns
2) You are directly issuing SQL commands at the UI, leading to sql injection attacks.
3) You are not using a UI design pattern, which leads you to tightly couple database activity to the UI.
http://www.codeproject.com/Articles/228214/Understanding-Basics-of-UI-Design-Pattern-MVC-MVP
@System243trd, parameters are important to prevent SQL injection attacks (people will insert SQL commands into the database if you do not perform basic checking of what you are passing to the database). If you write a stored procedure try to make
the variables the correct SQL server data type to avoid problems later of people trying to call it directly.  Darnold924 is right, I see no code to prevent against SQL injection attacks. In addition, during development in some instances LocalSQLDB
database system is used and during deployment you usually need to use the production SQL server database. Moreover, Linq-to-SQL is used on Windows Phone 8.1 and it is required for phone development later and so I highly recommend learning
it if you plan on developing windows phone applications.
@System243trd, If you want the code for the windows phone app I think it uses the MVVM model or that might be for universal apps or regular windows phone apps. I have been using the windows phone Silverlight pivot or panorama template (it might
be pieces of both). I've already submitted to the windows phone marketplace and it had to go through certification first. I plan on later making an article on it but I need to first fix one or two simple problems I have with it. Here's a link to
the source code if you later want to look at the source code (in vb.net):

Best method for creating a PDF Brochure???

Hello,
I would like to create a printable PDF brochure and post it on my website [url deleted by host]. I’ve tried just using the existing web pages and think I could get something better looking starting from scratch. I just started working with Acrobat 9 extended and am not too familiar with it’s potential. Any suggestions whether I should do it all in Acrobat, or use a different program and import it. I have the Adobe Web Premium Suite 4 with Fireworks and Illustrator.
Thanks.

Use whatever desktop publishing application that you have then use Acrobat to print to a PDF. Do
n't use Acrobat for the layout. That's not what it is for.

Best method for dynamically populating PDF on the web?

Hi there,
I'm trying to find a web-based solution to populate text within an existing PDF with a person's name (using a name variable within the PDF body copy in several spots). I know that LiveCycle Designer is the best method for creating dynamic PDF's but since I'm on a Mac, LiveCycle Designer wasn't packaged with my CS5 Suite / Acrobat 9 and I'm not eager to run windows in parallel and pay for acrobat pro a second time just to have it on windows for the LiveCycle functionality...CS5 wasn't cheap ha.
So I'm trying to find out if there are alternative ways to achieve this without going down that road. I don't mind writing PHP or using some other programming language to set it up online, but I just seem to be finding many different methods coming up and cannot find the most straightforward solution.
Any help is greatly appreciated!

LiveCycle Designer won't do what you want. It requires server software: LiveCycle Forms will do the trick.
You can find information on it here: http://www.adobe.com/products/livecycle/forms/

Best Practise for rebooting ISE Nodes?

Hello Community,
I administer an ISE installation with two nodes (I am not an ISE Specialist, my job is just to manage the user/mac-adresses... but now I have to move my ISE Nodes from one VMWare Cluster to another VMWare Cluster.
(Both VMWare environments are connected to our enterprise network, but are different environments. vMotion not possible)
I would shutdown ISE02, move it to our new VMWare environment and start it again.
Than I would do this with our ISE01 Node...
Are there any best practises for doing this? (Shutdown application first, stopl replikation etc)?
Can I really simply reboot an ISE Node - or have I consider something bevor I doing this? After I doing this?
Any tasks after reboot?
Thank you for any answer!
ISE01
Administration, Monitoring, Policy Service
PRI(A), SEC(M)
ISE02
Administration, Monitoring, Policy Service
SEC(A), PRI(M)

There is a lot to consider here. If changing environments means changing IP Address and IP Scopes, then your policies, profiles, and dACLs would also have to change among other things. If this is the case, create a new ISE VM in the new environment using the built in evaluation license and recreate the deployment from the old environment using the addressing scheme of the new environment. Then spin-up a new Secondary node and register it on the Primary. Once this is done, you can re-host the license from your old environment onto your new environment. You can use this tool to re-host:
https://tools.cisco.com/SWIFT/LicensingUI/loadDemoLicensee?FormId=3999
If IP Addressing is to remain the same, it gets simpler.
First, and always, perform a configuration and operational backup.
If downtime is not an issue, or if you have a maintenance window of an hour or so: Simply shut down both nodes. Transfer them to the New Environment and turn them on, Primary Node first, of course.
If downtime is an issue, shut down the Secondary Node and transfer it to the New Environment. Start the Secondary Node and when it is up, shut down the Primary Node. Once services on the primary node have stopped, promote the Secondary Node to Primary Node.
Transfer the OLD Primary Node to the New Environment and turn it on. It should assume the role of Secondary Node. If it does not, assign that role through the GUI.
Remember, the correct way to shut down an ISE node is:
application stop ise
halt
By using these commands, the risk of database corruption decreases by about 90% (Remember to always backup).

Best practises for replication

Hi,
I want to know what is best practise for duration of replicaation of database between two Cisco ACS.
Regards,
Atif.

Hi Atif,
The replication time interval should always be higher.
Reason: Everytime you replicate the data it requires ACS services to restart so doing this frequently may affect your production enviroment.
However, if you want to replicate internal user's password then there is an option to replicate password changes right awayvwithout a full replication. You can enable this option under System Configuration -> Local Password Management. With this enabled you could potentially set the replications to a larger interval.
It also depend how often you do changes in your ACS. If its normal then I would say set it to every sunday 12:00 PM.
This is how replication happens:
The primary ACS stops its authentication and creates a copy of the ACSinternal database components that it is configured to replicate. During this
step, if AAA clients are configured properly, those that usually use the primary ACS fail over to another ACS. The primary ACS resumes its authentication service.
After the preceding events on the primary ACS, the database replication process continues on the secondary ACS. The secondary ACS stops its authentication service and replaces its database components with the database components that it received from the primary ACS. During this step, if AAA clients are configured properly, those that usually use the secondary ACS fail over to another ACS. The secondary ACS resumes its authentication service.

Wats the best practise for performance

Hi all,
In my out line i have 15 dimensions and for one dimension i have 39000 members so wat is the best practise for performance , If we have more dimensions and more meebers is there any problem for performance
so wat is the best practise for dimensions and members??
Thanks in advance??

If it is ASO application it is not a problem.
If it is a BSO application surely it will hit the performance.
More dimensions will create performance issues.
If the said 39000 members dimension is a Flat dimension. It will be another issue.
If BSO is obvious try to split into two models.
Create intermediate groupings for the Filat dimension.

BEST PRACTICES FOR CREATING DISCOVERER DATABASE CONNECTION -PUBLIC VS. PRIV

I have enabled SSO for Discoverer. So when you browse to http://host:port/discoverer/viewer you get prompted for your SSO
username/password. I have enabled users to create their own private
connections. I log in as portal and created a private connection. I then from
Oracle Portal create a portlet and add a discoverer worksheet using the private
connection that I created as the portal user. This works fine...users access
the portal they can see the worksheet. When they click the analyze link, the
users are prompted to enter a password for the private connection. The
following message is displayed:
The item you are requesting requires you to enter a password. This could occur because this is a private connection or
because the public connection password was invalid. Please enter the correct
password now to continue.
I originally created a public connection...and then follow the same steps from Oracle portal to create the portlet and display the
worksheet. Worksheet is displayed properly from Portal, when users click the
analyze link they are taken to Discoverer Viewer without having to enter a
password. The problem with this is that when a user browses to
http://host:port/discoverer/viewer they enter their SSO information and then
any user with an SSO account can see the public connection...very insecure!
When private connections are used, no connection information is displayed to
SSO users when logging into Discoverer Viewer.
For the very first step, when editing the Worksheet portlet from Portal, I enter the following for Database
Connections:
Publisher: I choose either the private or public connection that I created
Users Logged In: Display same data to all users using connection (Publisher's Connection)
Users Not Logged In: Do no display data
My question is what are the best practices for creating Discoverer Database
Connections.
Is there a way to create a public connection, but not display it in at http://host:port/discoverer/viewer?
Can I restrict access to http://host:port/discoverer/viewer to specific SSO users?
So overall, I want roughly 40 users to have access to my Portal Page Group. I then want to
display portlets with Discoverer worksheets. Certain worksheets I want to have
the ability to display the analyze link. When the SSO user clicks on this they
will be taken to Discoverer Viewer and prompted for no logon information. All
SSO users will see the same data...there is no need to restrict access based on
SSO username...1 database user will be set up in either the public or private
connection.

You can make it happen by creating a private connection for 40 users by capi script and when creating portlet select 2nd option in Users Logged in section. In this the portlet uses there own private connection every time user logs in.
So that it won't ask for password.
Another thing is there is an option of entering password or not in ASC in discoverer section, if your version 10.1.2.2. Let me know if you need more information

What is the best practise for setting dirty flag of a page/view?

For a page/view, normaylly there are 2 things to do for diry data:
1. when it's clean, Save button is disabled, when it's dirty, save button is enabled.
2. when it's dirty and the window is closed, a popup says "you have unsaved data, close will lose the data".
My thought is: it must be handled at client side, because not all valuechange is auto submitted. E.g., you type the 1st letter of a string in a input box, the server side does not know it, but save button should be enabled immediately.
Is it possible to capture all valueChange events in a page or a view at client side?
I'm not sure what is the best practise for setting dirty flag? If there is better solution? Does ADF provide facility for this?

public void save(ActionEvent event){
boolean formValid = isFormValid();
   if (formValid) {
save button is enabled.
    private boolean isFormValid() {
        boolean valid = true;
        if (Check Condition 1) {
            valid = false;
           showErrorMessage1();
        if (Check Condition 2) {
            valid = false;
           showErrorMessage1();
        return valid;
    private void showErrorMessage1() {
                when it's dirty and the window is closed, a popup says "you have unsaved data, close will lose the data".

Best Practise for connecting to Ethernet based device

Hi,
I have inherited a system where we have a cDAQ-9181 controlling an vehicle access barrier, with a LabView application on a PC talking to it via Ethernet.
(The application is very simple - press a button > send a value to the 9181 unit > opens the barrier )
All works fine most of the time.
( We occasionally get network related errors. The LabView application sometimes thinks another PC has reserved the unit, or gives “error 89130 - device not available for routing” )
The users would now like to be able to easily run the application from a second PC ( not at the same time ), but this seems to be a problem. If I exit the application on PC “A” and run it on PC “B” it struggles to reserve the chassis, and throws the “89130” error and I have to restart the unit via MAC.
While I’m a “veteran” control programmer, I’m new to LabView, and would be very grateful for any pointers on “best practise” for talking to devices via Ethernet, or any specific suggestions for handling multiple PCs talking to a single device.
Thank You.
Tim.

Hi Tim,
Thank you for your post and welcome to the NI forums.
There are lots of knowledgebase articles on our website and you should be able to find documentation for most of our hardware.
There is a good troubleshooting guide for cDAQ Ethernet here (http://ae.natinst.com/public.nsf/web/searchinternal/e67b4e4749f378ff862577270059bd4b?OpenDocument) - it outlines the steps to take to ensure you have a stable a connection as possible. You may have already seen it, but the quick-start guide for your specific device may also be worth consulting for best practices. Are these helpful?
As for using more than one PC - this shouldn't be too much of an issue. I would expect that the resource isn't being closed correctly - when you exit the App on PC 'A', how are you closing off the resource?

Best MacBook for Creating Video

I need help choosing the best MacBook for creating sports videos using either iMovie or Final Cut. I currently us a Mac Mini but I want to purchase a laptop to be more mobile.

Any layer may be replaced with new footage by simply selecting the layer you want to replace in the composition, then selecting the new footage in the project panel, then holding down the Alt/Option key and dragging the new footage to the composition.
If you want to automate the process of replacing footage you'll have to use a script.
If you want to use a project as a template then simply copy the template file in it's folder and paste it into a folder that contains the same structure as the template. IOW, the folders should look like this:
Template Project
     >template.aep
     >Footage
New project
     >copiedtemplate.aep
     >Footage
Your footage has to have the same filename as the original template project.
You can also save an AE project as a template (aet) project. That's what they are doing on siges like Video Hive. The template isn't easily overwritten so it maintains the work. Then you simply add your footage using the first technique that I talked about.

Best workflow for creating logsheets before ingesting.

I'm looking for the best workflow for creating detailed log sheets of my avchd footage before ingesting/transferring it to FCP. I have many hours of footage shot with my Sony NX5U and only want to ingest the necessary clips. I'm using FCP 6.5 on a MacPro tower. Thanks.

>I'm using FCP 6.5
NO you are not. You might be using FCP 6.0.5.
Well, the only way you can ingest only sections of tapeless media is by using Log and Transfer. And you cannot Log clips first, and transfer later. You cannot do the same thing you did with tape, make a Batch Capture list. So you would look at your footage in the FCP L&T interface, and you can send one to be transcoded while you move onto the next one to watch. That can happen at the same time.
But, there's another issue here. The Sony NX5U uses an AVCHD format that is slightly different than normal...not that there is a normal. But I discovered that importing clips up to 10 min in length work fine, but anything over 10 min, and it took 4-5 times longer to import. meaning a 30 min clip took just over two hours. It was something that ClipWrap2 addressed before FCP did...and they only addressed the issue with the FCP 7.0.3 update. FCP 6.0.5...or even the last update for that version, 6.0.6, doesn't address this. There might be issues in importing this footage into FCP 6.
And the other options...Avid Media Composer and Adobe Premiere...don't have a "log and transfer" type interface. They bring in the full clips only. With Premiere, you are stuck with them being full length. But with Avid, you acccess the footage via AMA (Avid Media Access), and then you'd make your selects on a sequence, and then consolidate/transcode only the footage on the sequence.
And no, there's no way to make a logging sheet for these apps either.
The best you can do is watch the footage, note the timecode, and manually enter those numbers when you go to bring in the footage.

Best workflow for creating games for pc and starling games in AIR

best workflow for creating games for pc and starling games in AIR.
I need to develop for tablets with starling and AIR as well as for pc without starling ie: downloading from a server.
In starling you have to
1. instantiate starling
2. use texture atlases for loading graphic assets - well its the recommended way
3. use juggler
etc...
ie: with all these differences is it best to:
1. create completely different projects
2. just create different classes for the starling specific parts
3. use a conditional compile constant
    eg: CONFIG::STARLING
            "then do this"
or      CONFIG::CPU
          "then do this"
I currently have the latter but it feels a little messy. I would prefer separate classes for each platform where the image loading is concerned.
There must be so many game developers out there but in large gaming companies that know exactly what to do. Perhaps you can point me in the right direction with a book or something.
CHEERS

The other thing is that I can't see the games being very different as you suggest. I have downloaded Lee Brimelows tut on creating a starling game on Lynda.com and the code is great for creating games using states for menu, play, gameover etc... The only difference is that he uses texture atlas and there is a great difference in loading them etc... so technically you would only need to handle them in a different class as collision and the rest of game play should be the same in both. I think!!!
Well, actually not exactly but near enough - maybe it might be easier to create separate projects and just cut and paste the new code introduced.
