Built-in PDF viewer could better render low quality PDF using the recognized text

I've been a little frustrated with this. When I view a low quality PDF on a university website, zooming in/out on firefox (v34.0 and v35.0.1 on linux is what I've tried) proves that the quality could be drastically improved. The original fonts looks like the pdf-lowqual.png file below: (unable to upload images on here)
http://i59.tinypic.com/169kkcw.png
While zooming in or out, the font displays as normal "hypertext" or whathave you before going back to looking ugly again, as seen here:
http://i61.tinypic.com/2gvptw0.png
Is there a way to permanently display the recognized text with local or internet fonts? I assume the text is recognized as that is what allows one to select text.

[[Use the Adobe Reader plugin to view or download PDF files]] or [[View PDF files in Firefox without downloading them]] are the current offerings for viewing pdfs in Firefox.
However, there are alternatives like embedding fonts into the pdf. I do also know that there are web safe fonts with similar function: [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Web_typography#Web-safe_fonts]

How to put in low quality without use the mouse ?

Hello,
I look for a means to put an flash player application in low quality by passing only by the keyboard.
By example, for put in high quality, I can use the hotkey shortcut ctrl + h.
I search that too for the option 100% and "afficher tout" (in french).
Thank you very good.
(sorry for my approximately English)

You can change the quality with the stage class in ActionScript. For example: stage.quality= StageQuality.LOW;
If you want to use key events to change that then you will have to create keyboard event listener and in your event listener function you change the stage's quality.
Hope this give you some insight

How to Create a PDF Document and apply Digital Signature in C# using the Adobe SDK?

Hi Everybody!
I have to do two distinct tasks here:
1) How can I create a PDF document using the Adobe SDK in my .NET Applications(C# - 2.0)?
I just need a basic sample to create a document with a simple text, for example. I did not find any useful information in the adobe documentation. I have the Acrobat Professional 8.0 in my computer, but it's very dificult to work whith de Acrobat.dll and .NET with a poor documentaion.
2)How can I apply digital signature in a existent pdf document?
I need to sign documents using the SDK, just a basic sample in c# would be helpful to start!
Anybody could help?
Thank in advance!

Leonard Rosenthol or anybody that can help, sorry to insist.
I will explain better my problem:
I have an ASP.NET WebPAge (C# - 2.0). In this page, the user make a request. The request should generate a PDF document with the informations of the request and with a field to add a digital signature. The document created will be send to a approver that will confirm the approval applying his digital signature (I need to do too, a webpage where the approver open the page, choose the pdf document, and sign, just selecting his own certificate and clicking in the button SIGN... but this is another problem).
That's the reason that I have to create a PDF document. If I create a WORD or HTML document, and then convert to PDF, how can I add a field to digital signature in this pdf document?
Is there any solution using Acrobat SDK?
Thank you very much!

I need to convert PDF file to Word Document, so it can be edited. But the recognizing text options do not have the language that I need. How I can convert the file in the desired of me language?

The application Acrobat provides no language translation capability.
If you localize the language for OS, MS Office applications, Acrobat, etc to the desired language try again.
Alternative: transfer a copy of content into a web based translation service (Bing or Google provides a free service).
Transfer the output into a word processing program that is localized to the appropriate language.
Do cleanup.

Hi Steve,
ExportPDF is definitely available in the United Kingdom. However, it's necessary that you have an Adobe ID, and credit card and billing address from the same country in which you're trying to purchase a subscription.
If you are using an email address (Adobe ID), and credit card/billing address from the United Kingdom, and are still unable to subscribe, please let us know and we'll take it from there. (And, if you're receiving an error message when you try to subscribe, let us know. That will help us figure out what's going wrong.)

Could not connect to DbaaS Service using the given user name and password.

I'm not able to create Java Cloud Service (Oracle Java Cloud - Virtual Image Services) for my newly created Oracle Database Cloud Service instance. It fails with
"Incorrect values entered
Could not connect to DbaaS Service using the given user name and password.
Verify that the user name and password are correct and the user name has SYSDBA privileges."
I'm using SYSTEM user and the password I used during Oracle Database Cloud Service instance creation. I've verified them with sqlplus and also by connecting remotely.
Java Cloud Service wizard doesn't allow me to proceed to instance creation.

Hi Alexander,
Maybe you'll find useful the document from Oracle docs specified bellow regarding Creating an Oracle Java Cloud Instance:

Heard that the screen was going to be smaller in the future. Lots of low vision people use the ipad to make it thru the day. Hope the screen stays the same for their sake.

Heard that the sreen was going to be smaller in the future. Lots of low vision people use the ipad to make it thru their day. Hope for their sake the screen stays tha same size.

Don't believe all the rumors you read. Rumors that purport that Apple will release a model of iPad with a smaller screen have been around for a couple of years, and so far have not come to pass, though of course that's no guarantee for the future. I strongly doubt that Apple would abandon the current screen size even if they were to release another iPad model with a smaller screen.
Anyway, if you want to comment to Apple, you can do so here:

PDF Generated doesn't render on other PDF Viewer

This is my first time on the forum, so pardon me if this posting is on the wrong category. I have a question regarding the PDF output of my generated PDF. I have created a PDF using the LiveCycle webservices and everything is working perfectly, the only problem I have is that when I try to view the PDF on other viewer other than Adobe Acrobat it doesn't render. Can anyone tell me what can I do so that the PDF I created can be view on other viewer other than Acrobat. Thanks for your time and help.

Hi,
What viewer are you trying to open the pdf in? Check the version of pdf you are converting to in the conversion settings. Maybe the viewer is too old for that version.
Maybe you could post a sample pdf?

I'm unable to read pdfs in what I'd call Mozilla's pdf-viewer (ie. in a new tab, but inside the browser). This broke between morning and afternoon of 15.10.14.

I have followed instructions on a forum on checking through 'Options' that my browser is still set to open pdfs inside Mozilla and it is.
It frequently comes up with a bar along the top saying 'This PDF might not be displayed correctly.' Then a button 'Open in Different Viewer', which I've tried pressing, but nothing has happened. (I don't actually want to open it in a different viewer, I want to open in Mozilla).
I'm currently doing a lot of research work and this makes it a lot longer so would REALLY appreciate any help :)

The built-in viewer has limitations, definitely. If you prefer that to Adobe Acrobat, you might try the latest "Development" version of the viewer, which may have improved feature support but with its limited test cycle, could be more crashy. There's a link to it about halfway down this page under Firefox:
https://github.com/mozilla/pdf.js
Otherwise, you might need to use the Acrobat plugin. (I think you have seen the article, but just in case: [[How to disable the built-in PDF viewer and use another viewer]].)

A checked checkbox is rendered as unchecked in default pdf viewer of firefox. It is checked when the pdf is opened with adobe.

I am using DynamicPDF to render a PDF. There are multiple check boxes which are checked. When the PDF is opened in Firefox, none of the check boxes are checked. However, when I save the PDF and open with Adobe, check boxes are checked. There might be a problem with the Firefox built in PDF viewer as the built in PDF viewer for other browsers work fine.

Current Firefox versions have enabled a built-in PDF Viewer that doesn't have all features that other PDF readers like the Adobe Reader have or may not function properly otherwise.
You can change the action for Portable Document Format (PDF) from Preview in Firefox to use another application like the Adobe Reader or set to Always Ask in "Firefox > Options/Preferences > Applications".
You can set the pdfjs.disabled pref to true on the <b>about:config</b> page to disable the build-in PDF viewer.
You can check the value of the plugin.disable_full_page_plugin_for_types pref on the about:config page and remove the application/pdf part if present or reset the pref to the default via the right-click context menu if you want to display PDF documents in Firefox with another application (i.e. not the built-in PDF Viewer).

Low quality pdf generated

i want to create pdf from uiview but the quality of generated pdf is poor.How can i create high quality pdf.

Here is my code to create pdf of UIView.
- (IBAction)drawPdf:(id)sender {
    // Creates a mutable data object for updating with binary data, like a byte array
    NSMutableData *pdfData = [NSMutableData data];
    // Points the pdf converter to the mutable data object and to the UIView to be converted
    UIGraphicsBeginPDFContextToData(pdfData, self.view.bounds, nil);
    UIGraphicsBeginPDFPage();
    CGContextRef pdfContext = UIGraphicsGetCurrentContext();
    // draws rect to the view and thus this is captured by UIGraphicsBeginPDFContextToData
    [self.view.layer renderInContext:pdfContext];
    // remove PDF rendering context
    UIGraphicsEndPDFContext();
    // Retrieves the document directories from the iOS device
    NSArray* documentDirectories = NSSearchPathForDirectoriesInDomains(NSDocumentDirectory, NSUserDomainMask,YES);
    NSString* documentDirectory = [documentDirectories objectAtIndex:0];
    NSString* documentDirectoryFilename = [documentDirectory stringByAppendingPathComponent:[NSString stringWithString:@"createdPDF.pdf"]];
    // instructs the mutable data object to write its context to a file on disk
    [pdfData writeToFile:documentDirectoryFilename atomically:YES];
    NSLog(@"documentDirectoryFileName: %@",documentDirectoryFilename);
    UIImage *currImage = [self imageByRenderingView];
    NSData *data=UIImagePNGRepresentation(currImage);
    NSArray *paths = NSSearchPathForDirectoriesInDomains(NSDocumentDirectory, NSUserDomainMask, YES);
    NSString *documentsDirectory = [paths objectAtIndex:0];
    NSString *filePath = [documentsDirectory stringByAppendingPathComponent:@"pngFile.png"];
    BOOL save=[data writeToFile:filePath atomically:YES];
    NSLog(@"BOOL = %@", (save ? @"YES" : @"NO"));

Low-quality copy (to the clipboard) in Keynote and Pages

Hello,
I am running Keynote 6.5 under OS 10.10 on MacBook Air. Just after updating to Yosemite I have noticed that if I copy (command-c) something from Keynote (say, some text, or a graphic) and try to paste it outside (in Preview, or in Word) I get a low-quality image (bitmap rather than vector). It was not like this before. Also, I have verified that this problem is limited to Keynote and Pages; i.e., copying something out of (e.g.) Powerpoint works perfectly (vector image).
Anyone can help?

I can confirm this is also a problem with Numbers. Anything copied out of the iWork apps appear to lose the ability to be pasted as a .PDF, even in applications that can accept the higher quality .PDF format. (In looking into it, there's additional weirdness I'm seeing related to iWork and the clipboard, but that's for elsewhere).
At this time, the only possible thing you can do to get high quality output from Keynote is to Export as a PDF, then open that and crop it.
Just to help a bit more, when you check Preview for how to crop a PDF, the help is incorrect. The command you're looking for is not
Choose View > Show Edit Toolbar,
it's
Choose View > Show Markup Toolbar
However, I haven't tried to see if you can get PDF's without backgrounds... checking now
I've also confirmed that Keynote '09 can still produce .PDF's from copied content. And, I am using a MacBook Pro.

BC4J View not Thread safe, user sessions are using the same view instance

Hi There,
We are using BC4J that came with JDeveloper 10.1.2.0.0 with Oracle 10G 10.1.2.0.0.
I have an BC4J account search view (BC4J AccountSearchView) that users can call to search for an account. So this view could be used by numerous users and pieces of code at the same time. Now my understanding is that each user gets their own instance of the view so changing the view's query should not be an issue (since the view definition is not changing). Under a light load the account search view looks like everyone get there own instance of the view and there expected account search results. But under a heavy user load when we have User A and User B the search query that was for User A will be used by User B. So the user results for one user will get the other users results.
I do not understand if the view definition is been changed by the other user and is impacting all view instances. How can this occur if it is thread safe?
I have enclosed the core code for this search.
If you can help that would be much appreciated, thanks in advance,
Nigel
accountSearchView.setQuery(baseSelectQuery+generateWhereClause());
logger.debug("SearchAccounts Query: "+accountSearchView.getQuery());
System.out.println("SearchAccounts SQL: "+accountSearchView.getQuery());
accountSearchView.setPassivationEnabled(false);
accountSearchView.setForwardOnly(true);
accountSearchView.executeQuery();
get attributes for each row result and place in new Java bean objects and return to user.

Nigel, we've only certified JDeveloper 10.1.2 against the Struts 1.1 with which it ships.
If there have been any changes in Struts 1.2 to the Struts Request Processor, then this could easily have an impact on the BC4JRequestProcessor's correct functioning, depending on what the changes were.
My quick look into the issue tells me that the ActionServlet init parameter named mapping in web.xml that we use for the 9.0.3-style BC4J/Struts integration is getting ignored by Struts 1.2. This parameter is used by Struts 1.1 to globally configure a custom ActionMapping subclass which can support additional properties. My quick test shows me that Struts 1.2 is ignoring this setting and so the oracle.jbo.html.struts11.BC4JActionMapping subclass of Struts's default ActionMapping is not getting used correctly as it does in Struts 1.1. This leads to errors when Struts tries to configure its actions in struts-config.xml since the Apache digester tries to set properties on the ActionMapping instance that don't exist (since the BC4JActionMapping has these properties, and it's not being used).
<servlet>
    <servlet-name>action</servlet-name>
    <servlet-class>org.apache.struts.action.ActionServlet</servlet-class>
    <init-param>
      <param-name>mapping</param-name>
      <param-value>oracle.jbo.html.struts11.BC4JActionMapping</param-value>
    </init-param>
</servlet>This is my quick analysis of what's not out-of-the-box compatible. I don't know enough about the changes in Struts 1.2 to know why this Struts 1.1 feature broke in Struts 1.2, or what the Struts 1.2 way to accomplish the same thing is.
I'd encourage you to use Worldwide Support's Metalink site and open a TAR for any time-critical issues you need assistance in resolving. Many of us are constantly traveling and only able to sporadically chime in with tips in the forum as our time permits.
The source of the BC4JRequestProcessor ships with the produce in the ./BC4J/src directory inside the bc4jstrutssrc.zip file.

Low quality when using Ken Burns effect

Hi,
I tried to import hi-res photos from iPhoto 6 to iMovie HD 6, adding some zooming with Ken Burns. The resulting clips are very blurry, lots of artefacts - very low quality. Is anyone else having this problem? It happens on my iBook as well on my iMac. Or am I just expecting to much?
Thanks for any advice, Patrick
iBook G4 800GHz, iMac G4 17" 1.25Ghz Mac OS X (10.4.4)

Hi Sue,
Have you ever tried Photo to iMovie? Apple even recommends it.
Yes, I know Photo to iMovie. But if I buy an integrated solution like iLife'06, it makes no sense to buy additional shareware programs to correct some flaws of it.
Isn't it possible to raise the quality of a Ken Burns effect, I would say in iLife '05 it was much better.
So I am looking forward to an update of iMovie HD 6...
Kind regards,
Patrick

Is the iSight camera in the MBA a lower quality one than the MB?

My friend just bought a Macbook Air from eBay, the model identifier is "MacBookAir1,1". It's had a fresh install of Snow Leopard on it and all the updates have been installed. It might be my imagination but the built in iSight image seems way below par compared to my old white MacBook. When I load Photo Booth it just looks grainy, even in good light.
I wondered is this because the camera in the MacBook Air is simply not as good as the camera in the regular MacBook? Or are the cameras the same, and it's just that the software needs something doing to it? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

You are probably correct that iSight hardware resolution is lower on MacBook Air (MBA).
BTW, the lower resolution cameras are not limited to MBAs. My 13" MacBook Pro has the lower resolution camera, too.
Many MacBooks (with possible exception of the MBA) have 1.3MP (1,280x1,024 pixels.) To determine whether a built-in iSight is the 1.3MP camera or the 0̸.3MP version, you may be able to use the test explained in this page:
http://macdaddyworld.com/?p=19
If your Mac will not run that software, you can test by recording a short video test clip using QuickTimeX (Snow Leopard users only) or iMovie 8 (the iMovie version called iMovie '09 in Apple's iLife '09) at maximum resolution to see if you can capture video larger than 640x480.
iMovie 8 can use my LED Display's inbuilt iSight to record at resolutions of either 640x480 or 1024x576, but any iSight that can capture greater than 640x480 images with any software must have the 1.3MP iSight.
For info of other readers: All external iSights were 640x480 cameras.
Everything discussed so far has dealt with hardware resolution. The only thing you can do about hardware resolution is to use a different camera. This link gives info on camera alternatives:
http://www.mac-compatible-web-cam.com/
Understand that software runs all iSights. Therefore, even if Macs with the higher resolution camera, you only get higher resolution images if the software you are using accesses the additional pixels. Therefore, don't trade Macs or cameras solely for increased resolution unless you know that the software you want to use can use the additional resolution.
For example, Photo Booth can only produce a 640x480 image, even with an iSight that offers higher resolution. If you are looking at the images on the respective Macs that captured the PB images, the difference you see may be largely due to the differences in the displays. To remove that variable, copy both images to both computers to judge whether the disparity is in the camera or the display.
