Can I generate PDF thumbnails on server using Acrobat SDK

Hi All,
Are there any licensing limitations or restrictions that prevent me from utilizing Acrobat's COM objects or interfaces to generate thumbnails for PDF documents on the server keeping in mind that I will install full version of Adobe Professional on server?
Thanks.

You should read the product pages for a description of the LiveCycle ES suite. It is not an API interface to Acrobat - it is an entire range of PDF-based server solutions for paperless workflows. Many different products that can be extended directly via Java.
> how about the third-party tools that extend adobe sdk
Can you give me an example? I don't know of any products that extend the Acrobat SDK (which is what I assume you meant by Adobe SDK). I know of several the provide extended interfaces to the PDF Library SDK, as well as many 3rd party proprietary solutions (since the PDF standard is an open format, anybody can write their own libraries for it from scratch).
> any thoughts?
Yes. Call Adobe Sales or Customer Service, and get answers straight from the horses mouth. They're a for-profit company (and quite good at the profit part). Sometimes the decisions they make may not make everybody happy, but it is their right to make those decisions.

Is it allowed to convert pdf documents into rtf using Adobe SDK

Hello
Can I convert pdf document into rtf using Adobe SDK?
Is available this functionality on c# code? Which assemblies i can use for it?

which is why it has to be on the desktop and not a server.
I didn't quite understand your statement. Could you, please, explain, why I can't use it only on the desktop and not a server? And, could you provide documentation, where I can find information about converting documents using c#?

My customer's solution has several issues generating PDF files and we are looking at the Acrobat SDK as at the instance of the final truth.
I use Interop.Acrobat.dll as a .NET project reference to open and resave PDF documents. I'd like to do all things I mentioned above.
After years and years, I have concluded that if you do serious PDF development, you need a set of libraries. For instance, if you are doing typesetting type of work ("vertical center", "horizontal center", "margin", etc., etc) , there is an excellent library from a guy in Germany (land of Johannes Gutenberg and printing presses)...
... which turned out to be useless in my next project which dealt with AcroForms.
I know exactly what you mean by "the final truth", sometimes I wish Adobe had some sort of official validating tool (like XML does).
Per your comments, I would recommend you to consider this library. It is available in all languages and its output is the same quality as Adobe's or at least in the same league:

If you want to comment further, we must go to a different forum, since we are not supposed to discuss any non-Adobe products here.

How to enable forms extenstion for adobe reader using Acrobat SDK?

Adobe acrobat GUI tool enables PDF forms designers to extend the use of Adobe Reader and allow the end user to save the PDF form locally using the Reader.
Is it possible to do the same kind of fuctionality at run time on the server using Acrobat SDK?.
We are creating several PDF Form on the server, is there any way we can use Acrobat SDK to enable form's extenstions programatically on the server after the PDF is created.
If Yes How? any code example?

Not using the Acrobat SDK, no.
However, Adobe sells the LiveCycle Reader Extensions Server that can be
used on a server for exactly this purpose.

Can not generate PDF Output in RoboHelp 11

Can not generate PDF Output. I keep getting the same error message:
"Microsoft® Word has not been started on this computer.
Launch Word and click the 'Start using Microsoft® Word' option before generating Printed Documentation again."
I have MS Office 2013 32-bit and RoboHelp on a 64-bit Wondows desktop.
What do am I doing wrong?

Is the 32 bit version of Word the only version of Word you have on the machine?
Where does Word's normal.dot reside? On your local machine? Sometimes it gets put on a network drive and that can cause problems.

How can I convert .pdf file to .doc using the free adobe reader app? when I try to convert the .pdf file it asks me to sign in. when I click on "sign in", I am taken to a service subscription page. So, no free conversions using free adobe reader app?

As has been mentioned Adobe Reader cannot export PDF page content. Nor can it create PDF or manipulate PDF page content.
What you can do is use one of Adobe's online subscription services. Two provide for PDF to Word export.
There's ExportPDF and PDF Pack.

Thanks, Dave A.

A Java AWT, X11 problem posted in the weblogic ejb newsgroup. I haven't been in here for long, but
that has to be a first.
If you have the DISPLAY env variable set to :0.0, you have to be at the console on a Solaris box
running the XServer. 'xdm' I think is the code that has to be running. Also, I think the format is
<hostname:0.0> or better <hostname:0> unless you are on a multi-headed workstation. Something like:
export DISPLAY=hostname:0
where hostname is the name of the host running an XServer and the .xhosts file allows access to the
XServer from the display client.
Apparently, you are not at the console?
Anyway, I don't think there is a newsgroup here that I could even recommend to cross-post this to as
it is not a WebLogic question. I think I would try the Discussion Forums at http://java.sun.com.

i am wondering if this case has something to do with jdk 1.3.1, and perhaps newer versions of jdk can take the parameter and operate correctly
is that right?

is headless option supported in jdk1.3.1?No,
It was added in JDK 1.4:

Can't connect to X11 window server using

java.lang.InternalError: Can't connect to X11 window server using "Ip" as the value of the DISPLAY variable.
I get the above error when I try to create an instance of the JProgressBar.
I have not been able to create a workaround.
One suggestion that I had was to use the following system command.
System.setProperty("java.awt.headless","true");
That gave me a null pointer exception.
I also tried setting the compiler parameters to make this process headless, but it did not make any difference.
I am running this code in a Unix environment.
Any ideas?

Hi
Generally in Unix environment the server should accept the connections from clients. Run the xhost + command on the server to which you are trying to connect and then try your application.
Thanks

Hi, Kelly
Thanks for your kind response.
The X-server should work, when I export DISPLY to a remote X-server.
How about ImageServlet.. It seems that the ImageServlet has more advantages than X-server or XVBF
I tried to configure OC4J using ImageServlet follow UIX developer's guide. But I was not able to force OC4J to use ImageSevlet. But OC4J is stll try to find X-sever..
I modified the web.xml file for the sample application I deployed.
Is this a right configuration? What is the different
<servlet>^M
<servlet-name>uix</servlet-name>^M
<servlet-class>oracle.cabo.servlet.UIXServlet</servlet-class>^M
<init-param>^M
<servlet-name>uix</servlet-name>^M
