Can't Create Form From Existing PDF

I received a PDF from a woman, it is a form that I can print out and snail mail. I decided to convert it to a PDF fillable form as it would be faster and cleaner to fill out...I can't. I am getting the following error and it's not just her PDF, I get this on any file I convert to PDF and tell to create a fillable form of. I didn't have this problem until I upgraded to CC and installed the latest Acrobat version.
Error:
"Acrobat was unable to make this document accessible because of the following error:
Bad PDF; error in processing fonts. <bad Type0 font> [1]
Please note that some pages of this document may have been changed. Because of this failure, you are advised to not save these changes."
I don't know what font she used nor the program, I don't have control of that short of asking her to change the font so Acrobat will play with it. One could assume she used the exact same file she made the previous year and just updated the year and date on it which, using my previous version of Acrobat would work fine at creating a fillable form.
Enquiring minds want to know.
Thanks

If you are adding/modifying ejb-jar.xml outside JDeveloper and trying to see the changes.
Save the ejb-jar.xml file which is being modified externally
Select ejb-jar.xml in JDeveloper
and do View | Refresh
This will load in the changes (providing the source path has been set properly)

Can't create EJB from existing .java AND ejb-jar.xml entries

I've noticed that I can create the source files for an EJB outside of JDeveloper, then I can do the "Create Entity Bean" thing, and specify the path to the source files, and it will use those source files, instead of forcing me to create them again.
However, I've noticed that if I manually add the information to the "ejb-jar.xml" file, and then try to add the bean, it won't let me. I've found I have to delete the entry from the ejb-jar.xml file and let JDeveloper control the creation of the fields, even if I know exactly what needs to be set.

I've created a PDF form using Adobe acrobat. I created the forms from a PDF that I made using pages

I've created a PDF form using Adobe acrobat. I created the forms from a PDF that I made using pages and word on Mac running Mountain lion. How do I allow the user of the form to insert JPEG files when filling out the form and how do I allow the user to add more fields or groups of fields as needed.

The type of form yo're describing is possible if you create it in LiveCycle Designer. It may also be possible in Acrobat, but there are certain restrictions. The type of form is known as a dynamic XFA form. LiveCycle Designer is not available on the Mac, so you'd have to install the software on a Windows machine and learn how to create this type of form. The LiveCycle Designer forum here is a good resource for getting more help.
Reader 11 now supports creating new pages using templates with a form that you create in Acrobat (Acroform). This requires some JavaScript programming. It also adds support for using a button to display a page from a PDF, which can be an image or anything else a PDF can be. So the user would click a button, be prompted to import a page from an existing PDF, and the button (or a different button) displays it as its icon. This would require the user to convert the image to PDF first, which is relatively easy these days (e.g., using Preview on the Mac, or Word on Mac/Windows). This too involves a bit of JavaScript programming, but it's very simple and straightforward.

We can't create form using dblink and synonim

We have created a dblink pointing to a table in the remote database.
When we create a form based on table or view using this dblink, we get the error "page not found".
We read from
Re: I can't create form using dblink
that we must create a synonim, and this was done creating one in the same schema of the db-link using the "Database Objects" of oracle portal 10g (external db is an oracle 9.0.2).
The new synonim work (tested with reports and pl/sql page)
but if we click on "Grant Access" (of the synonim) we get the following error :
Error: The underlying object of the synonym does not exist, is a remote object or is not of type function, procedure, package, sequence, synonym, table or view. (WWV-17076)
Does form work only with table and view of the portal database (not external one)? or have we loose something in the creation of the synonim?
Have someone succesfully created a form based on a db-link towards an external database?
Thanks to all.

Hei guys, has nobody created succesfully a data-driven forms based on a dblink towards an external database?
I can't believe this!!!!

Remove watermark/image from existing PDF?

I need to be able to remove a watermark from existing PDFs we have stored in a database. This is a legitimate requirement (rather than trying to remove trial software watermarks) as we have > 10 million PDFs stored with a "copy" watermark that we now want to store without the watermark.
I want to write a service in .NET which can do this programmatically.
Is there any Adobe SDK to support this.? if YES..please help.!
Any samples appriciated..
satish

The first issue you will face is trying to determine HOW the watermark was
added. If it was done in a standard way by a well written tool, then it
will be easily to locate and remove. However, if not, you will have your
work cut out for you.
Either way, you will not be able to use .NET with the Acrobat SDK for this
type of low-level operation.

Extract Tag Tree from existing PDF

Hello,
We are starting a new project where a user can accessibility check their pdf. They do this by uploading the pdf file and on a new screen we are supposed to show if the tag tree of the pdf (if it has tags).
Can the tag tree from an existing pdf be extracted on the server by running some command line code in the background or by calling a method in the .NET SDK? Anyone have any ideas.
If this isn't possible does anyone know of any other software programs that I might use in order to get this information. As long as I can get the tag tree I shouldn't have any problem marking it up into HTML and rendering it to the person's browser.
Thanks,
Dustin Michaels

Are you sure you can't install it on a windows server? This links says you can.
http://www.adobe.com/products/acrobatpro/productinfo/systemreqs/Re: Extract Tag Tree from existing PDF
Microsoft® Windows® 2000 with Service Pack 4; Windows Server® 2003 (32-bit or 64-bit editions) with Service Pack 1; Windows XP Professional, Home, Tablet PC, or 64-bit Editions with Service Pack 2; or Windows Vista™ Home Basic, Home Premium, Ultimate, Business, or Enterprise (32-bit or 64-bit editions).
Anyway even if you couldn't install it on a server we could always have it installed on a Windows XP machine and have the windows server contact the Windows XP machine to get the tag tree from the pdf uploaded.
Do you have any idea how you might extract the tag tree regardless of what operating system adobe acrobat is running on using some .NET code?
Thanks,

Which programs if any can extract the image from existing QTVR pano file?

Which programs if any can extract the image from existing QTVR panorama files that were created with one image?
Any ideas?
Thank you

Unless you can find an open source ODBC driver for SQL Server that runs on Solaris (and I wouldn't be overly hopeful there) Heterogeneous Services would require that you license something-- a third party ODBC driver, a new Oracle instance, or an Oracle Transparent Gateway.
As I stated below, you could certainly use SQL Server's ETL tool, DTS. Oracle's ETL tools would require additional licensing since you're just on 9.2. You could also write a small application (Java or otherwise) that connected to both databases and transferred the data. If you're particularly enterprising, you could load the SQL Server Type 4 JDBC driver into Oracle's JVM and write a Java stored procedure that connected to the SQL Server database via JDBC, but that's a pretty convoluted approach.

Adobe Reader XI won't launch, can't download or open existing PDF files.

Running Windows 7 and have had no trouble with PDF files until few weeks ago. Now Adobe Reader Xi won't execute and I can't download or open existing PDF files using Adobe. Interesting that I can open existing PDF files unsit PaintShop Pro X4 but not in Adobe. Have unistalled and reinstalled Adobe Reader XI several times with no change in problem.

You can try using Windows Explorer to navigate to C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Reader 11.0\Reader, then double-click on Eula.exe and accept the license agreement

Can't create WORD or EXCEL PDF?

Can't create WORD or EXCEL PDF's?
All Adobe updates are already installed.
I am running Adobe Professional 8
I am running Office Professional 2003
When opening WORD or EXCEL I get this error message:
Microsoft Visual Basic
Compile error in hidden module: DistMon
A suggested solution was to go to:
C:\Documents and Settings\IBM USER\Application Data\Microsoft\Excel\XLSTART
Then delete PDFMaker
The error message goes away but I cannot create a PDF Doc either, so that's no good.
When I click the create PDF button in EXCEL this is the ERROR Signature:
AppName: excel.exe
AppVer: 11.0.8307.0
AppStamp: 49ee85df
ModName: unknown
ModVer: 0.0.0.0
ModStamp: 00000000
fDebug: 0
Offset: 00000000
Also, when I click on send error report, it never finishes.
If I open Adobe Professional 8 and click on create PDF, then select a file,
the error message I get is:
Missing PDFMaker files.
Do you want to run the installer in repair mode?
If I click yes, it takes forever and nothing happens.
Suggestions?

I got this message when trying to use Excel 2003. I went to Microsoft's web site's community and entered the error message that you got. There was a solution offered that worked for me although I cannot remember now what it was. You might also try Microsoft's knowledge base for any possible answers for this problem. IMHO, I believe this is an Office 2003 problem and not an Acrobat problem.
I usually find the answers to problems such as these on Microsoft's web site. Good luck.

I am getting this error with my JSP's, i am running on Resin on Win2k, and MySql as backend.
Has anyone else also faced this issue ?
Looking for someone to help me to solve this issue.

Looking for someone to help me to solve this issue.Maybe you are closing the connections. You might want to verify that you are not doing that. Or if you are that that is the correct way to return the connection to the pool.
Or you could have stale connections. Some databases will time out connections if the connection is no used in a while. (This is a good thing.) But this means connection pools must do something with connections that are not used for a while. The pools usually have a configuration option(s) which allows you to set up a keep alive message which keeps the database from closing the connection.

How can I delete pages from a pdf file

How can I delete pages from a pdf file

Hi timk,
None of the Acrobat.com online services allow you to edit a PDF file. But, in checking your account, I see that you purchased an Acrobat Standard subscription, and you can certainly use that to edit a PDF file.
Have you downloaded and installed Acrobat Standard? It sounds to me as though you may be opening the PDF file in Adobe Reader, rather than Acrobat. (Reader doesn't allow you to edit PDF files.)
If you haven't already, download and install Acrobat from https://cloud.acrobat.com/acrobat. Then, make sure that you're opening your PDF files in that rather than Reader, when you want to edit them.
Please let us know how it goes!
Best,
Sara
