Can the Paragraph Catalog be printed or exported?

Is there a way to print or export the Paragraph Catalog of a FM document? My goal is to compare the list of tags available in one document to those of another.
Thanks so much for any insights.

Thanks, Mike. I never even thought of RoboCapture. I think these are
FM9 and FM10 files I'm working with.
I would add that, if it's not just the Paragraph Catalog you want
listed, but a list of the items in the Paragraph Designer, then check
into the Format List plugin from Squidds:
<http://www.squidds.de/en/products/squidds-produkte/toolbox-for-framemaker.html>
Go to the link above and scroll down to the "Orderform US" link. It will
show a PDF that lets you order only the tools you need and not the whole
Toolbox.
Format List pumps all the data from the Paragraph and Character
Designers into a table that makes it really easy to compare your various
formats at a glance. There is a free trial.

Odd List Order in the Paragraph Catalog

I set up the paragraph catalog in FrameMaker 8, running on Windows XP. All listings were in alphabetical order, top-to-bottom. After logging on to the computer with a new user account and starting up FM, the paragraph catalog re-ordered itself into an odd mix of forward and backward alphabetical order.
Distinct letter ordering is still forward ("a" is listed above "b" which is in turn above "c"). This occurs for any combination of distinct letter groups ("bab" above "bcm" above "rlm" above "rxxx").
Reverse order occurs with repeat letter groups ("hhhh" above "hhh" above "hh" above "h") and with spaces ("bil" above "bi"). This reverse ordering is stopped by distinct letters (even though "bco" is above "bc", these both are above the following two: "blbn" and "blb". However, "blbn" is above "blb", which is reverse order again.)
This odd mix of reverse ordering inside forward ordering extends to keystroke recognition, which completely negates the use of keyboard shortcuts. When typing F9-h-h (to invoke the tag "hh H2" for Heading 2), the system proposes "hhhh" (tag "hhhh H4" for Heading 4) before tags with fewer h's ("hhh", "hh", and "h"). The system won't recognize the fewer letters.
After originally setting up the catalog, the odd reversing never took place and key recognition worked correctly. This brings up two questions:
1. How can this odd reversing be undone and complete top-to-bottom alphabetical order be restored?
2. Can users control the ordering of catalog listing to increase functionality by decoupling the keystroke mnemonic from the tag name (typically accomplished by entering the keystroke value in a separate field) and/or by decoupling the tag name from the catalog list position (manually move tags up or down the catalog regardless of tag name)?

Sheila,
Item 2: Would a test of saving it as an .mif file and then opening it in FM 8 be a constructive test?
Item 3: I switched to QWERTY, set it as the default keyboard, and restarted the machine.
Upon opening the FM file, the pg catalog was still in the odd order. I then renamed a tag (from "h H1" to "hhhh H1"). The tag moved up above the tag "hhhh H4" which is still the odd order: it should be above that tag since 1 comes before 4, but both of those tags should be below "hhh H3" and "hh H2". The two hhhh tags are above the hhh and hh tags.
I don't think this is the issue because I originally created the tag names with a Dvorak keyboard active and the catalog order was correct and F9 keystrokes worked properly. Until logging on as a new user.
I'll test whether logging on as the old user resets the list.

I have tried to order a photo book. Both times it uploaded images etc and then after payment details a message pops up saying this album couldn't be processed. Please try again. Has anyone else experienced this? Can the photo books be printed in store?

Your screenshot is not visible.
Anyhow, try a different browser. What were you using?
Firefox is known to work well with the download manager when other browers fail.

Can the comments in app store be exported?

Hi all,
I just wonder can the comments in app store be exported?.
and will the history comments show when the new version come out??
Seems that i cannot find an entry for the comments.
Appreciate your help.

Hello aimerwonder,
What do you mean by comments? Do you mean reviews? You can subscribe to the RSS feeds for your apps' reviews.

How can you add your own print and export buttons to the CR viewer toolbar?

I posted a previous question that was asking how to get around the Information Bar in IE7 when you export and print. Unfortunately the CR viewer file download code gets blocked by IE7 because the buttons don't directly download the file. However, I have been able to get a regular button that calls the following code and streams the file to the client and IE7 does not block it.
Sub PrintPDF(sender As Object, e As System.EventArgs)
     Dim crReportDocument as ReportDocument
     Dim crExportOptions as ExportOptions
     Dim crDiskFileDestinationOptions as DiskFileDestinationOptions
     Dim Fname as string
     CrReportDocument = New ReportDocument()
     CrReportDocument.Load(Server.MapPath("estactionlist.rpt"))
     Fname = Server.MapPath("./") & Session.SessionID.ToString & ".pdf"
     CrDiskFileDestinationOptions = New DiskFileDestinationOptions()
     CrDiskFileDestinationOptions.DiskFileName = FName
     CrExportOptions = crReportDocument.ExportOptions
     With crExportOptions
          .DestinationOptions = CrDiskFileDestinationOptions
          .ExportDestinationType = ExportDestinationType.DiskFile
          .ExportFormatType = ExportFormatType.PortableDocFormat
     End With
     CrReportDocument.Export()
     Response.ClearContent()
     Response.ClearHeaders()
                Response.AddHeader("content-disposition", "attachment;filename=test.pdf")
                Response.ContentType = "application/pdf"
                Response.Charset = ""
                Response.WriteFile(Fname)
                Response.Flush()
     Response.Close()
     System.IO.File.Delete(Fname)
End Sub
So here are my questions?
1. Is it possible to add a custom print control/icon to the CR viewer toolbar?
2. If one is not possible, then is it possible to override the CR viewer print and export buttons with your own subroutines like the one above?
I just want my page to look nice and hate to have print and export buttons outside of my CR viewer.
Thanks,
Kevin

It might be possible to replace the buttons in a windows app since you can retrieve the toolbar as a toolbar object in the winform viewer ( ToolStrip toolBar = (ToolStrip) crystalReportViewer1.Controls[3]; ) however with a web app, it's a lot more difficult.
The problem is that that you need to parse the Request string to try and figure out if the print / export button was clicked. The code below makes the print button disappear if you click it, so you should be able to modify it to call your custom printing / exporting code instead (You have to do this check in a postback)
        Dim I As Integer = 0
        If Request.Form.AllKeys.Length > 0 Then
            For I = 0 To Request.Form.AllKeys.Length - 1
                Response.Write(Request.Form.Keys(I).ToString & "<BR>")
                If Request.Form.Keys(I).ToString = "CrystalReportViewer2:_ctl2:_ctl2.x" Then
                    CrystalReportViewer2.HasPrintButton = False
                End If
            Next
       End If

Can the Sony HDV A1p print to tape?

Hi Guys,
I know there are may posts about HDV and printing to tape but I have not been able to find a specific answer to this question - can the A1p, the little sister of the Z1p, be used if you want to print to tape?
I plan to buy the Black Magic Intensity Pro (unless someone screams it's a bad idea) so hopefully a lot of the HDV issues will be side stepped but in the mean time...
Has anyone managed to PTT with the A1P? What settings did you use (camera/suite)? I am Pal 1050i if that makes any difference.
I just want to hear that one lone voice saying yes - I have done it.

No reply but I sorted it out. When you've got all your settings right (easy setup) and the plugs in the right slots and have refreshed the A/V devices and set the print to tape ready to go then it will only show the image in the camera viewfinder when you are actually recording (using record control in the play/edit mode.

Can the author please send me an exported version using H.264 video codec

Seems as thou I am having similar problems as other clients are having with movies. My computer guy asked me to ask you this question in the subject line. I have no idea what this means. I sent him a video, he has sound but no video, and he has tried multiple applications, but the results are the same. No video. So, I am suppose to ask the author to send you an exported version using H.264 video codec???? Please help get this resolved!

So, you need to re-export it, this time choosing H.264. What software are you using?

Can the screen be cropped to and exported at a custom aspect ratio?

I think I'm needing Premier to do something it's just not designed to do. What I need to do is to take five or six different screen and audio captures of the same event (a 3D virtual reality instructional session), each representing a different person's view of that event, assemble those in a split screen, synchronize them to the designated "main" capture's audio, delete the other audio tracks, and add CG title labeling each one. The effect is like looking at a display showing six security camera images. From what I can determine, it is possible to do those things in Premier.
However, what I then need to do is to crop out any extra space to the left and right of that split-screen image and export the file as a .mov with the aspect ratio produced by the cropping so that the videos are as large as possible and are not distorted from resizing them to fit the standard aspect ratio. Depending on the size of the screencaps, the resulting .mov might have nearly a 1:1 ratio. What is critical for this is that the video be as large as possible and the "black" space be as small as possible so that the person who comes in later to analyze these composite videos can see everything as clearly as possible. I also need to crop on the fly; because these images aren't always captured at the same size, it is impossible to preset a size for the resulting video.
We've been using a screen capture tool to do this that works but is a pain; clips can only be moved and resized by mouse-drags, and the software has to import to and export from its own proprietary format, which is very slow. However, ever piece of "real" video editing software I've looked at only seems to export in TV or film aspect ratios. Quicktime Pro looked for a bit like the best bet, but it doesn't seem to be able to handle multiple audio tracks (which are necessary since I have to synchronize tracks by ear much of the time).
Is what I'm describing--exporting .mov files while preserving custom aspect ratios that are created by cropping during editing--something Premier can do? If so, would it be something fairly easy for complete novices to do?

medeamajic wrote:
On a Mac based system ScreenFlow might work best but on the PC side FRAPS might work best. You can do what you want to do with Premiere Pro once you record the screen capture. As Stephen_Spider mentioned you might need to crop and even resize the images. FRAPS can record at 1/4 the screen resolution and still have decent results. PP CS 5.5 can play several layers (6 PIPs) of the FRAPS codec at 1/4 resolution in realtime.
Thanks, but we cannot change the screen recording process. According to the study's protocols, the virtual world has to be full-screen or almost nearly so during the session, and that full screen has to be captured for analysis. Resizing the screen captures is not a problem (especially since I already said I'm doing that), but if you're saying that Premier can only play back up to six screen captures simultaneously if they're captured at 1/4 screen, then that's a deal-breaker right there.
By the way, here's approximately what each of the completed composite videos looks like:
Screencap 1
Screencap 2
Screencap 3
Screencap 4
Screencap 5
Screencap 6
Each screencaptures is resized to the largest consistent size that will fit into this format, and then the resulting video is cropped to the outside border. If there are only five screencaptures, I simply center the single one on the bottom on the "center line."
And, to be clear (though I've said this several times already), this is something that is already being done. We probably have more than 60 of these .mov files, each around 45 minutes long, with five or six synchronized screen captures in each. Frame rate etc. has not been any issue with these, and neither has playback of the .mov file from HD or DVD.

Can the imagerunner 1025 multifunction printer use the scanner scanner function on a 64 bit pc?

I needed to restore our computer to factory settings and now I can't find a scanner driver for our Imagerunner 1025iF. I have a 64 bit PC running Windows 7. The install wizard only allows installation of the printer and fax. Searching the internet for the ScanGear driver only came up with 32 bit drivers which don't seem to work on this computer. There is nothing on the Canon website.

Hi Ancientanne!
Canon does not provide direct support for imageRUNNER series products, but your dealer will be able to help you! If you don't have a dealer, please call us at 1-800-OKCANON (652-2666) and we will be happy to provide dealers who are in your area.

Can the Canon Pixma MX922 print pictures at only 4 x 6? If so, any other recommendations?

I am looking for a printer that primarily prints photos. I am looking for one that can various sized photos, hopefully from wallet size, to bigger. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!

OK. Understood. Easy Print Pro, which comes with the printer, will allow various layouts. You could do multiple wallet size on 4x6 or letter size.

JavaFX2.1 - TableView -Can the contents of a TableView be exported to Excel

Hi all,
I am new to the JavaFx scene, I have a desktop application that uses multiple TableViews of varied sizes and values. When the user closes down the table view in question they have requested that the output of the tableview be exported to a csv in a specifed location.

Sort order in Paragraph Catalog inconsistent / incorrect

b Problem Description:
Sort order of paragraph styles INCONSISTENT/INCORRECT when compared to standard alphabetical sort. From the Paragraph Catalog, or when I select F9, styles starting with "1a_" sort before styles starting with "1_". If a table with the style names is sorted, "1_" comes before "1a_".

I have the same problem. I've lost track now of the number of times where I've assigned the wrong paragraph style to something since switching to FM8. The styles are no longer in the same order, so my level 1 heading is no longer the first tag that comes up when I press F9. Now I have to dig for it through other tags that start with the number 1 in our catalog.
Our paragraph tags were developed years ago, and it wasn't until FM8 that there was a problem with the sort order. The characters no longer sort the same as Windows sorts. An underscore is supposed to come before all letters and numbers. Adobe, please fix this annoying bug!!!

Does the pixel size affect printing in iphoto?

Have trouble printing in iphoto. I can view the photo in iphoto fine. When I print, I am just getting a small corner of the picture. Can the pixel size affect printing?

Set your ruler increments to pixels Preferences>Units & Increments. You can fill the text box with placeholder text Type>Fill with Placeholder text and get a word count from the Info panel with Show Options turned on from the flyout.
From the Transform panel you can set a text box's width and height

Paragraph Catalog Not Indicative of Selected Text

I just loaded Framemaker 12 and noticed the the paragraph catalog no longer indicates the tag being used when I select text in teh documents. I cannot find an option to enable this. Any ideas?

Which point version of FM12? The latest patch brings it up to 12.0.4p445. The catalog highlighting of the tag name at the cursor location was only introduced with the 12.0.3 patch.
Note: you have to load the patches in order.

To plugin developers: can I have access to any metadata field of the catalog in Print Module?

Dear LR plugin developers,
Maybe one of you has already implemented such a feature, maybe I can entice you to do so, if several people find this useful?
Is there a forum for plugin feature requests? If so, forgive me for using this general user-to-user for this. Or would you look on the Adobe feature request forum for such input?
I would like to have access to any metadata field of the catalog in Print module, ok if for all LR standard catalog fields, preferable if also for custom fields created by other plugins.
I would want to add such a field underneath each image on a print page, e.g. something like complete exposure info.
Doing so in export in a "Mogrify-like" way would also be ok, if metadata accessible. Fixed custom text obviously would be cumbersome, as limiting to 1 image to export at a time. Creating jpgs in export is ok,
Print module would be preferable as I was hoping for more than one image per page=jpg.
Now if such text could even be placed anywhere on a print template, possibly containing also free text, and formatable - you would have corrected the basic design flaw of the Book module imo...

The problem one faces is that the SDK does not access Print or Book. You'll need to (ab)use the fields that are available, and I'd suggest you look at my Search and Replace plugin which can transfer values between fields. So you could move info from an inaccessible field to one that can be printed. Maybe use virtual copies which you can just discard afterwards?
