Can you create a 3D PDF with environment reflections without specialist software?

Just asking this because I had a job last week in which I was asked to create a 3D PDF with environment reflections... I started by trying to use a combination of Photoshop and Acrobat, and although I could set my materials and environment image in Photoshop, when I exported the 3D layer and imported the U3D into Acrobat, the environment wouldn't come with it, so no reflections. I really searched around for more info, but I couldn't a way to do this with just Photoshop and Acrobat alone. In the end I had to buy a program called SimLab which achieved what I was looking for, but it seems a bit odd that this shouldn't be possible with Photoshop so I wanted to double check I wasn't missing something obvious...

OK..., but do Photoshop or Acrobat allow you to embed an environment texture into the U3D or PDF in some way?
The program SimLab will allow you set a reflection map for your meshes and this obviously gets embedded into the PDF or U3D when you export it...

How can you create a writable PDF document from a PPT presentation ?

You can make a PDF file out of you notes and handouts but using the Adobe PDF printer.
Open your PowerPoint Document then go to “File” “Print”
Select ‘Adobe PDF” Printer
Under slides, select which way you want to print. Note it will not print to a printer but to a PDF file.
After then go into printer Properties and Setup PDF properties, do the following: (see second image below)
Default: PDF/A 1-b
Adobe Security: none (change as needed)
Adobe Output folder: Prompt for Adobe file name
Adobe Page size: Letter (change as needed)
Check the following check boxes
View Adobe PDf Results,
Add Document Information,
Rely on system fonts only,
Delete Log files for successful jobs.
Select OK
A pop will ask you where you want to save the document. The file extension should be PDF. After giving the file name select okay and the file should popup as a PDF. Down side is if you want to speaker notes included then you will have to do another file, like wise with just screen shots then combine into one PDF document.
I used Acrobat IX Pro. So to do this you need Acrobat IX or X Pro.
Hope this will help.

Can you create a site map with Dreamweaver?

Greetings,
Can you create a site map with Dreamweaver?
Crawkers do not work because many of my pages are not linked.
Thanks

I'm not too sure what Crawkers is, but I do not think DW has that capability out of the box. There are some web based solutions that will scan you site for you and give you a map for search engines. I choose to go with a commercial option which is pretty good from WebAssist, it's called Surveyor: http://www.webassist.com/dreamweaver-extensions/surveyor/ .

IPhoto 8.1.2 can you create a smart album with only one face

I'm using iPhoto 8.1.2 and have about 23k photos in the library. I have identified 32 key faces, and would now like to create some smart albums that contain only the face or faces that I want and to exclude all the others. S for example a smart album that has only my son.
I tried using the doesn't contain this face, but you can only have around 10 filters/critiria in a smart album.
any suggestions are appriciated

You can't really, because you can't exclude enough of the faces.
I would keyword the preferred images as well, so finding the face and the keyword would find the pics of the person alone.

How can you create a karaoke video with the music lyrics?

I'm working on a generic music video. I want to add written lyrics to the video so that people watching can follow along with the singing. What is the best way to create trailing lyric highlights to the way the song is sung?

QuickTime Player Pro ($30) and lots of patience.
QuickTime Player supports "text" tracks and, with some special manipulation, can display the text "karaoke" style.
QuickTime Player 7.6.6 (not the X version) can play ".kar" files. Millions of them found on the Web and easy to download. They include MIDI audio (computer generated sound) and are very tiny in file size.

I downloaded a .kar file using QuickTime Player Pro and the Movie Properties window, extracted the text track and then changed the text using TextEdit. I then added my new text track and deleted the original.

Can you create a product report with attributes?

I have tried create a customer and orders report in order to show a list of people who have purchased classes..
My product is setup as : SATURDAY CLASSES, with product attributes eg: JAZZ, BALLET, DRAMA etc
When I run the report, it only shows the initial product, SATURDAY CLASSES, and no attributes.
Report goes like this:
Custom Reports > Add a Customer Report
> Customers and Orders > Then I choose my fields required.. and Generate Report.
I realise to fix this problem I could change the products to individual products and group them together, but that means the product discounts I have set up wouldn't work....
Which makes it hard to see who has booked into which class..
Is there any way to run a report that will show attributes?

Our reports currently do not include product attributes. I believe that this item is on the wishlist so I would encourage you to go there and vote for it.
Cheers,
Mario

Can you create a time delay with AS3?

Is there some simple ActionScript 3 code which would cause a delay in the timeline when it's encountered?
Say, for example, we hit Frame 50. Is there code I can place there that would make the timeline "stop" for a specified amount of time?

Thanks, if you say it's simpler I'll look that up as well.
Sometimes there just isn't enough time to learn something as complex as ActionScript. I'm currently juggling Flash, Dreamweaver, CSS, video editing, After Effects, Soundbooth, Cinema 4D, broadcast video etc. etc. I wish Flash would automate at least some of this stuff like they did before with Behaviors.

Can you create an ODBC connection with a VI ?

One VI came up when I searched example code; however, it had problem with loading a VI (see attached) and seemed limited. I wanted to be able to create an ODBC for connecting a SQL Server database that is hosted on the network.

Your error message states that your VI has no block diagram, so it could not convert to LV 7. It must have been saved with the option to not include the block diagram.
To answer your question about ODBC, I believe you need the Database Connectivity Toolset, comes with Enterprise Toolset or Toolkit, to make database connections and SQL queries. It works well and is worth the extra money. Visit NI website to learn more about this toolset.

Can you create a custom PDF Preflight report?

Is it possible to customize the preflight report?

bollocks, everything can be changed, including acrobats default preflight report, but since adobe isnt forthcoming with options to do so, look at enfocus pitstop instead. acrobat without pitstop is like a car without a steering wheel.
http://www.enfocus.com/en/support/knowledge-base/how-to-add-a-company-logo-to-the-prefligh t-report?q=Search
and the same is true for acrobat, just gotta find all those resources and a way to edit them without getting into licensing trouble over edititng adobes code.

NewBie Question: Can you make a website completely with Java?

Greetings my new Fellow Java programmers. My name is Jason and I am a computer programmer and web developer. I am verse in the following:
1. HTML/XHTML
2. CSS
3. Asp.net
4. VB.Net
5. SQL
I want to expand my skills to include:
1.JAVA
2. Action Script
3. Java Script
4. Ajax
I have always wanted to learn Java and now I think it is the right time. So my question is can you create a site complete with Java or have a majority of the site functions and look attributed to Java? Is it similar to creating a site with vb.net and asp.net which utilizes html as well? Please explain. I am eager to learn this language. Thank you.

...ROOOOOF!

I find it strange that you have to ask this. Of course the end result will be HTML/XHTML, that's what the browsers want. I would think that if you know the .NET side of web development, these concepts (client/server technologies) should already be clear to you.
The short answer is yes it is possible. However if you want to learn Ajax/Javascript/Actionscript, I would learn those technologies before you learn Java web development as they are completely unrelated. You know that Javascript is not Java, right? You can implement javascript/Ajax in your .NET web applications already.
Before you want to learn Java web development, learn Java. Seriously, learn basic Java first. It will be a great deal harder (and ultimately a lot more frustrating) to jump directly into the web development side of Java without knowing any of the basics. One of the biggest differences between .NET and Java platforms is that Microsoft basically holds your hand when it comes to making decision about which APIs to use and how to attack a problem; Java leaves you to the wolves to select from a gigantic amount of APIs and tools available that can each solve a problem in their very own way. Freedom is great, but it can be very daunting when you are just beginning.
So before you even think about web development, I suggest you explore the java tutorial and see if you can get to grips with the language and the tool set.
[http://java.sun.com/docs/books/tutorial/|http://java.sun.com/docs/books/tutorial/]
When you are comfortable with the Java language and you are sure that Java web/enterprise development is still something for you, then come back and ask the question again.

How can I create a full page on Adobe Muse (without side space)?

Muse uses Fixed width Layouts so that is not 100% possible. You can extend images and box elements to full width but not actual content.

Can you create a .ics file from entries in a PDF?

Hi,
I'm wondering if anyone can help me: Can you create a .ics file from entries in PDF?
Example:
I'm wanting people to be able to choose a number of dates for some events within a PDF, then click a button that will then create a (or number of) .ics files so they can add those dates to the calendar of their choice. Is this possible?
Thanks

Using the solution supplied by Leonia, and cited by Keith, you can do the same thing (flopping the Curve profiles) in LightRoom. So, it makes sense. Though I didn't know know it worked for Color Negatives.
A friend of mine with a Nikon Coolscan is going to scan nearly 150 B&W rolls of 35mm negatives for me, and I want to import them all into Aperture, naming and keywording as I go. The objective is, of course, to have the convenience of a diigtal library. But also to have some made into large prints for framing.

How can you create a spry menu bar with no background colour?

How can you create the first level of a spry menu bar to have no colour? I have a coloured background right now and the colour matches when you load the site in Internet explorer but does not match in Firefox. Any suggestions are welcomed on how to fix this.
Thanks!

Here is the site:

I am learning with code, (obviously) so any feedback would be nice. I use dreamweaver CS4, but when I originally designed the site it was in a much older version of dreamweaver. I wonder if that could also be a cause. (besides human error)
Thanks again,

How can you create a playlist with music and music video and play those from same playlist through Apple TV?

How can you create a playlist on Ipod touch with music and music video, and play those from same playlist through Apple TV? I can download, create a playlist with both music and music video, stream that through the Apple TV with no problem. The sound and the information show up on the TV, but when it gets to a music video, it only shows the information and "artwork".
I also have a video playlist - videos play fine through the Apple TV, but will not shuffle through all videos - continues to repeat the same one. I have most definitely selected shuffle in both locations - from the playlist and on the ipod video screen while video is playing.

I finally got it... had to sync the photos with the music in iMovie, arrange the voiceover in GarageBand then export to iTunes, and then I was able to put it all together in iMovie and burn in iDVD... had a few glitches along the way but finally finished : )
