Cannot Drill From (PDF) using FF in Cognos Report Studio

Using Cognos Report Studio I can Drill From a PDF Report to another Report in IE.
I cannot Drill From a PDF Report to another Report in FF.

The PDF Viewer introduced in Firefox 19 does not (yet) have all the features of Adobe's PDF Plugin. You can switch using the settings described in this article: [[How to disable the built-in PDF viewer and use another viewer]].
The viewer is under active development, but I don't know how soon the feature you're using will be supported.

  • Extract Text from pdf using C#

    Hi,
    We are Solution developer using Acrobat,as we have reuirement of extracting text from pdf using C# we have downloaded adobe sdk and installed. We have found only four exmaples in C# and those are used only for viewing pdf in windows application. Can you please guide us how to extract text from pdf using SDK in C#.
    Thanks you for your help.
    Regards

    Okay so I went ahead and actually added the text extraction functionality to my own C# application, since this was a requested feature by the client anyhow, which originally we were told to bypass if it wasn't "cut and dry", but it wasn't bad so I went ahead and gave the client the text extraction that they wanted. Decided I'd post the source code here for you. This returns the text from the entire document as a string.
           private static string GetText(AcroPDDoc pdDoc)
                AcroPDPage page;
                int pages = pdDoc.GetNumPages();
                string pageText = "";
                for (int i = 0; i < pages; i++)
                    page = (AcroPDPage)pdDoc.AcquirePage(i);
                    object jso, jsNumWords, jsWord;
                    List<string> words = new List<string>();
                    try
                        jso = pdDoc.GetJSObject();
                        if (jso != null)
                            object[] args = new object[] { i };
                            jsNumWords = jso.GetType().InvokeMember("getPageNumWords", BindingFlags.InvokeMethod, null, jso, args, null);
                            int numWords = Int32.Parse(jsNumWords.ToString());
                            for (int j = 0; j <= numWords; j++)
                                object[] argsj = new object[] { i, j, false };
                                jsWord = jso.GetType().InvokeMember("getPageNthWord", BindingFlags.InvokeMethod, null, jso, argsj, null);
                                words.Add((string)jsWord);
                        foreach (string word in words)
                            pageText += word;
                    catch
                return pageText;

  • How to extract word coordinates from PDF using vc++6.0

    In sdk,i just know how to get coordinate from pdf using javascript,and it will be completed use vb.but i dont know how to get the coordinate througt vc++6.0.anyone can help me?
    thank you advance!

    PDEWordFinder is the usual method for getting words and co-ordinates.
    PDFEdit is not usually used, it is not suitable for getting text.
    It is very hard work to make the two worlds work together (e.g. to
    edit text you find).

  • How to read line number text from PDF using plugin?

    Hi, I would like to know how to read line number text from PDF using plugin?
    Thanks in advance.

    Ok, some background reading of the PDF Reference will help you understand why this is so difficult. PDF files are not organised into lines. It is best to think of each word or character on the page as being a graphic with its own position. The human eye sees lines where a series of graphics (words) are roughly in the same horizontal region.
    In the general case it is difficult or even impossible to answer this. You may have columns with different spacing (but the PDF stores no information on what is a column). You may have subscripts and superscripts. You may have text in graphics coinciding with other text. Commonly, there may be titles, headings or page numbers which are just ordinary text and might count as lines.
    That said, what you need to do is extract the text on the page and its positions. The WordFinder APIs are the way to do that. Now, sort all the words out, using the Y coordinates and size to try and guess what makes a "line". Now you are in a position to find the text (divided into words, not strings) and report the "line number" you have estimated.

  • Could not get exact contents from pdf using adobe acrobat professional

    Hi,
    I am using acrobat professional to extract contents from a pdf into HTML. During extraction of pdf into HTML some contents are getting rendered as images. But with pdf to xml extraction i can get the exact contents. But i need HTML file from pdf. Any suggestions. Thanks in advance.

    You might want to see if you can select the background with the object touchup tool. If so, can you then just delete the selected object. May take a while to go through the document, but if it solves the problem you are ahead. You may be able to select it with JavaScript and repeat the process. My point of using the object touchup tool is that it may not be a background set by Acrobat, but something that is simply labeled as an image from the Acrobat viewpoint.

  • Can't Use UPK with Cognos Reports

    I am trying to use UPK to record Cognos reports. If I have UPK open, the Cognos report freezes and will not run, so I'm unable to use UPK to record these reports. I have tried logging on as a remote user, or opening the report without UPK open, then opening and trying to record, and nothing works. Has anyone had this issue with Cognos or other web-based applications/reports?

    I'm not familiar with any issues related to Cognos. I would suggest opening a support ticket: http://support.oracle.com/
    Best regards,
    Marc

  • I cannot print a PDF using the Adobe printer.

    I have been using the PDF printer for years on the same system (Windows Vista Business using Acrobat v8), but now it won't create a PDF document from any program (Firefox browser, MS Outlook mail, MS Word, etc.).  I can start the print process, and it gets to the Creating PDF screen then finishes but doesn't show the results and no document was created.
    I just downloaded a new version 8.2.5 but that didn't resolve the  problem, so I uninstalled all and reinstalled the program from a disk, then downloaded  multiple updates until I'm back to the current v8.2.5.  The Printing Preferences were reset to print to the default Output Folder, and I changed that back to my usual location, though I've had to change that in the several locations offered but it's still not saving it; could this be related to the non-print issue?
    The Printer is called Adobe PDF, the Driver is called Adobe PDF Cconverter.  I thought maybe the Driver got corrupted but I can't find  the Drivers on this site.  Please help!

    Hey Daniel,
    Have you tried repair Adobe Acrobat DC?
    If no, then please repair the installation under Help menu.
    This could also happen due to an Adobe Acrobat DC installation file corruption. To resolve this issue :-
    Uninstall Adobe Acrobat DC using the Acrobat cleaner utility.
    Restart your computer.
    Re-install Acrobat Acrobat DC  Download Adobe Acrobat free trial | Acrobat Pro DC.
    Let me know if the issue persist.

  • Can't seem to save non-English as text from PDF using Reader

    I have several PDF documents that were originally generated by OpenOffice from a UTF8-encoded text file. The text is in different languages, e.g. Korean, Arabic, Russian, English. When I open these documents and then "save as text", the resulting text files contain garbage or nothing at all in all cases except for English. Is it possible to extract non-English text from a PDF document using Reader? If not, is there a different product that could be used for this purpose? Thanks much!

    They're using fonts that you don't have on your system so no, it isn't possible with Reader.

  • Cannot print from firefox using windows 7 x64 pro

    I cannot print using Firefox 3.6.3. I have a canon mx340 printer and am running Windows 7 Pro 64 bit. I can print from files, email (Outlook), IE and everything else. I downloaded newest print drivers. I reset printer in Firefox using "about:config" That fixes it temporary, but after a little bit of time it stops printing again.
    == This happened ==
    Every time Firefox opened

    I fixed this problem. I had to turn off the browser virtualization feature in Zone Alarm Extreme Security. This wiped out all of the Firefox settings, but I had bookmarks, etc. backed up. (answered by original poster)

  • Cannot print a PDF using the Oracle APEX print feature

    Hi,
    I work from a Wondows 7 workstation.
    I have Adobe FlashPlayer 11 installaed on that workstation.
    I can open a regular *.pdf file.
    I have the following configuration for my Oracle APEX application:
    Report Printing:
    Print Server Protocol: Advanced (requires Oracle BI Publisher)
    Print Server Protocol: HTTP
    Print Server Host Address: the IP address of my BI Publisher server
    Print Server Port: 9704 (from installation of BI)
    Print Server Script: /xmlpserver/convert
    On the page (that is an interactive report) that I want to print, it is configured with:
    Download:
    PDF option is checked.
    When I click on Action -> Download -> PDF for this page, I get the error:
    report_customers_region.pdf  file can not be opened because the file type is not supported or because it is damaged (because, for example as an e-mail attachment is not sent and correctly decoded)
    Does someone has an idea what the problem is and where I should investigate further?
    Thanks and Kind Regards.

    Well, is the PDF actualyl allowing to be printed? Check File --> Properties in Reader/ Acrobat.

  • Cannot download from Fileserve using FireFox

    For a couple of weeks now, I have been unable to download from Fileserve . ( I am a free user, not premium ).
    I select free download, solve the Capcha , and the count-down starts normally, but when it reaches zero, instead of showing a download link button, it reloads the original page for the file I am trying to access.
    This only happens with FireFox. I can download from Fileserve with K-Meleon, or Comodo Dragon.
    I have tried with all add-ons disabled, and it still fails, so it does not seem to be a problem with one of my extensions.
    I can download via FF from many other file sharing sites such as Filesonic and Rapidshare.
    It is only the Firefox / Fileserve combination that will not work.
    A search showed that I am not the only one with this problem, but did not provide a solution.
    I have sent three emails to Fileserve, but have received no response from them other than their auto-reply saying that I would be contacted soon.

    I have the exact same problem with FileServe and FF8. The workaround is to download their Fileserve Manager and install the Firefox add-on for it. You then simply right click on the FileServe link and select "Download with FileServe Manager" or highlight the link text at the bottom of the FileServe page and the FSM pop-up will appear. Click on "Download with FSM." This will start the program and you enter the Capcha through that.
    If you go into the FSM options you can choose to have it not start with Windows and only work when using FileServe and Firefox. I haven't had a problem with FileServe downloads using Firefox since I installed the FSM.
    Hope this helps.
