Best way to view PDF page(s) with in a custom program

What is the best approach for viewing PDF page(s) in a custom program? I know you can hook in Adobe PDF Viewer, but I need access to mouse clicks and location on the page. As well, I need to control the scale and zooming of the PDF page(s).
I'm not looking to change the PDF file, but rather draw over top of the page(s).
Thanks for any help or pointing me in the right direction,
Shayne

Actually, Ive already implemented an interface after throughly reading all the Acrobat documentation on Javascript within the PDFs. Its functional but not spectacular. It simply uses the setField function to get and set the values to the Field objects. It do this by posting messages to and from the web page that is hosting the PDF object.
I was wondering if there is a better way. It needs to stay a thin-client interface - nothing besides PDF Reader loaded on the workstations. I am currently investigating the several other methods but was hoping for some guidance.

Best way to view .pdf and .doc files on an iPhone

thank you if you know and are willing to post - cheers

ok, email attachments definitely worked, was able to read .pdf files for sure.
Problem is those emails, a week later, are buried under 100 new ones. VERY INCONVENIENT.
This is how far the iPhone has come in 18 months ?
The Google phone is starting to look very interesting. . .

I have a PC but a friend of mine has MAC, and we're both looking for best way to view pdf documents, but not through e-mail savings. Can you please help us, by naming any good APP or anything like that.
Thanks for the answer,

If the app store is not available then no one can recommend an app to read PDFs except as email attachments.

Best way to view Text files from Mac on iPhone 4?

What is the Best way to view Text files (loaded) from my Mac onto my iPhone 4?
Will any of the "readers" (e.g. Kindle, Kobo) allow me to put my own text files onto my iPhone and read them easily?
Thanks

I actually purchased GoodReader because it is easy to transfer files without iTunes. I dislike the file sharing through iTunes. You can use a Mac or PC. Once I was in the app I clicked the "Wi-Fi" symbol which brings me to "WiFi-transfer." It will show this --
"WiFi status: ON
Use one of the following addresses exactly as you see them
1. IP-address: http://192.168.0.98:8080 <-- Local LAN address the iPhone is broadcasting on.
2. Bonjour-address http://Myname-iPhone.local:8080"
All you have to do is type one of those addresses into your browser. (Safari, etc.)
It will take you to a page that has iPhone Connection and a list of options. You can either create a new directory within the application or use an existing one to upload a text file. It's rather simple, you just select "Choose a file to upload" > Select your file > Press upload > Start the app and see your text/pdf/whatever file.
You can also connect to a server to download a text file, browse the web, or enter a url. I see it also has an ICloud folder which I'm not sure if it integrates with Apple's iCloud or not, I think it does. I'm not affliated with the app and I'm not saying you have to buy it, I'm just a happy user.
If you don't want to buy this app let me know I'll keep looking for a free or cheaper one for you if you want.

Best way to find duplicate pages / find duplicate background images

What is the best way to detect duplicate pages?
The pages I am dealing with are searchable image (scanned Image background with selectable text overtop). In this case, Any two pages that have the exact same background image will be duplicate.
I only know how to get page text though, so I've been getting the text and hashing it, then checking for duplicate hashes. This works for the most part, but I fear running into two different pages with the exact same text.
What about looking at the background image? If a PDF has multiple pages with the same background image, I assume it would store the image once and then just reference it from the pages? Is it possible to check duplicate pages this way?
Or Does Acrobat have a built-in checking solution I haven't discovered? As always, any help is appreciated

Ok, well for the most part doing it by text works, but it sometimes flags things that arn't duplicate: such as two of the same worksheets that were not filled out will have the exact same text, despite being completely different pages

Best way to view a panorama

I was wondering what is the best way to view a panorama on the iPad?
The panoramas are NOT 360 degree. It is created by a digital camera, one of those which has this newer built-in sweep panorama mode, where you hold the camera and turn, and it snaps photos and stitches them together for you in the camer itself. And of course you can hold the camera in portrait or landscape mode and you will get a panorama with different dimensions this way.
So I import one of these panoramas into the default Photos app (after scaling it down in PS because obviously I don't need to see a 5000 something pixel wide pano on the iPad).
Anyhow. I think the iPad's Photos app displays panoramas in a rather stupid way. First, it just shrinks the pano so it fits the whole display. Then, if I double click it, it zooms into the panorama like 3 times or so, completely blowing up the pixels.
The only way I find is to zoom into the pano with two fingers, and then I can pan the photo left/right. I think this is rather lame way of doing it and was wondering if anyone has a better way to tackle this issue.
I am NOT interested in purchasing programs for the iPad that creates/stitches panoramas together for me. I want to create the panos with my digital camera, edit them and then import it to the iPad, which results just a simple photo, albeit much longer width then height. I'm just looking for a better way of looking at them on the iPad other then that mediocre default Photos app.
Thanks!

Here's a free viewer that can be used for panos on ipads even though it's a product viewer ... you would need the beta one that actually works on ipads with zoom support http://www.webrotate360.com/360-product-viewer.html

How can I resize a pdf page content with annotations and highlights in Acrobat Pro?

How can I resize a pdf page content with annotations and highlights in Acrobat Pro while maintaining page size and annotation/highlight interactivity? I've tried to use the crop tool in Acrobat Pro (9) and the page does resize, but the highlights and annotations go all over the place. I specifically need to scale the page content smaller (83%) but maintain page size and annotation/highlight to content connection and interactivity.

An old trick (not recommended) would be to print to a new PDF with the page size selected but a scaling of the content. Only print the document, not the markup, to a new PDF. Close that PDF when done and reopen the old one (or maybe a copy of the old one for safety) and use Document Replace pages and select the new document to replace your current pages. You will then have to go back through the markup to locate it all correctly. There may be a more elegant way, but this may be the fastest.

Best way to view footage.

Hi Everyone,
If someone has Standard Definition PAL DV captured using a PAL easy setup, what is the best way to view it.
It's FCP 6.0.5 running on a 24' iMac. Not sure of the processor but it's top spec.
I have to ask because I get a bit confused with the whole 'what your watching it on' thing. This footage in particular will only be viewed on a computer or an LCD tv which, as far as I knew, are both non-square pixels. But purely for viewing/editing on the computer, is the native resolution the best it's going to get?
Thanks,
Double Ohh

best is to view your footage while working is on an external broadcast monitor, but if you don't have that - connecting a TV through a camera is better than just working off your computer monitor.
computer monitors are square pixels.
for viewing on a computer native is as good as it gets (quicktime will compensate for the pixel aspect ratio)
Viewing on a DVD is mpeg2, not PAL DV - you converted it during the dvd making process - either with compressor, dvdsp or idvd (etc.).

Is FOP the best way to create PDFs in java?

hi,
Is using FOP the best way to create PDFs in Java? I played with it for a while and it looks really cool.
I think FOP is more flexible than iText since it uses XML and XSL to generate PDF files. In iText, you probably will have to hard code all the styles and layouts in java.
Any other thoughts?

We have a commercial alternative to FOP that might do the job - our Report Generator at http://big.faceless.org/products/report can take XML documents and convert them to PDF. Like FOP it uses CSS2, but instead of the XSL-FO tags it uses basically the same tags as HTML. There's a free trial download available so you can give it a try and see if it fits your needs.
Cheers... Mike

I'm assuming you have the lastet OSX version 10.9 "Mavericks." Here are some useful links from Apple I think will help:

I suspect you have a newer iMac than the pre-2006 models this forum covers (the forum labels are unbelieveably vague). If you can confirm that yours is newer than 2005, I can ask the Hosts to move you the the forum for current iMacs, which gets many more views.

Best ways to view data, total records of an application table ie VBAK

Hi all,
What is the best way to view data of an application table in the source system?
I know about SE16....but are there other ways to know details ie the total no of records and different field information about a
application table ie VBAK in source R3?
Also, using SE16 when i checked for VBAK and clicked on the "number of enteries" then it showed 0...however
when i directly checked from the sqlplus then i found about 5000 records in there in VBAK. I am not sure why
via SE16 it showed 0. Does anybody have any idea what i missed here?
Thanks...will give points for ur input.
ak

I tried "number of enteried" on se16 and it shows 0 enteries without any selection criterion...i cheked by putting relevant time range as well but it shows 0...
As i told that when i checked VBAK separately via logging to database directly then i did find 5678 rows there.
Please note that this is a new demo version....so i thought that i first need to activate the table which i did using tcode SE11. Now the VBAK table is active but still via SE16 shows 0 nuber of enteris....
Can anybody please advise here..
Thx

What is the best way to set up business accounts with multiple ipads?

Here are three different methods >
How to use multiple iPods, iPads, or iPhones with one computer, http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1495
This article > iOS: How to transfer or sync content to your computer, http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1296
suggests using contacts groups.
When syncing contacts, you can choose to sync all of your contacts or only selected groups.
You can select a group of contacts to which all new contacts created on your iOS device will be added.
You can set up groups in the Address Book application.
If you are all going to use the same iTunes apps library, turn off "Automatically sync new apps" in the apps tab just below the list of apps. Then you won't get new apps on your device unless you select them.
