Clickable PDF for download to smartphones

I want to recreate my groups recall roster for download to a smart phone, IPhone and Android. Is there a way to make a phone number clickable so that the hyperlink takes you to a call/text box and can I make a street address open up in a drive to function? Any help is appreciated. Thank you.

I don't believe this has been implemented, at least with Adobe PDF viewers. There is no such action defined in the PDF spec, so this would have to be implemented separately in a PDF viewer, kind of like how Reader interprets URLs in the text of a document as links even though no actual link annotation is present.

How do I attach a .pdf for download?

hi all,
I am designing a site and would like to include a .pdf pricelist for clients to download off my site - can't figure out how.
thanks for your help!

Welcome to the discussions. In general, you can hyperlink a file by setting it up in iWeb Inspector's Link tab as "Link To: A File. The following video tutorial shows an example of a PDF document being linked for downloading, but it can alternatively be an MP3 or other file:
http://www.apple.com/findouthow/web/iweb08.html#tutorial=nav
Note that you won't be able to test the hyperlink in iWeb itself — only after publishing will you be able to test the hyperlink in a browser.
A PDF hyperlinked in iWeb as "A File" will open in the current browser window/tab. At the bottom of this test page (not mine) there are a couple of text links to PDFs — click on them and see what happens...

...In Safari 3, you can move the cursor to the bottom of the PDF page to display a small black control window.

How do I add a PDF file for download to my iWeb page?
I have created one using Apples Pages program.
Thanks!

Hi-
You need to create a text link to the file...
On your page, type a word that you want to be the link... then select the word, and in the inspector pane, click the link tab (the arrow on the far right) and check "enable as hyperlink." Then choose "file" from the dropdown menu and a chooser box will open for you to locate the file on your hard drive.
Choose the file by clicking "open" once it's located. Then the next time you publish, the file will be uploaded and linked to!
Hope this helps... I think I got all the steps in there!

File name for downloaded PDF

I have an application that provides files for download using obscured urls. I use the Content-Disposition header in the http response to set the proposed file name. This works fine if the user opts to save the file directly from the link without opening it (for example, in Internet Explorer, the user right-clicks the link and selects 'Save Target As...'). However, if the PDF is opened, and then the user selects 'File-Save As' from the menu (or clicks the Save icon), the proposed file name is not used. This does work in other applications, just not in Adobe Reader.
So, the questions are:
1 - is there a way to make this work as required - OR -
2 - is this something that will be fixed in a future version

Its been almost 3 years, has there been any update on this issue? We are experiencing the same issue. Our numerous customers are thinking about just using a different pdf reader that supports this standard. All workarounds we have encountered are hacks around the URL and are unacceptable for our customers.
Please respond, we would hate for Adobe to lose all of the users that our customers have.

What's happened to downloadable help pdf for Premiere?

How do I download a help pdf for Premiere? When I open the help topics page, there is message bottom right which says that this info can be downloaded. But how?*

Thanks and sorry it took so long to reply.. I don't get notified of your reply. It's not really about the pdf version to be honest....
and I would do that... except that 1. I shouldn't have to do that to get answers or when I use it as a reference. and 2. the help (more often than not) isn't for myself. I help other people with Photoshop and I used to be able to direct them right to the page at adobe.com for help. For that the old help system was PERFECT! I use it more as a reference for msyelf, so the downloaded pdf is fine for that. But when I need to help others it's EXTREMELY FRUSTRATING. I was literally almost in tears earlier today (hence me revisiting today.... to complain some more).
Sorry for your frustration. The new Help system takes some getting used to, as there are no page numbers or indices, only search and a Help and Tutorials page. I would suggest using the html version of the Help when dealing with others, as you can refer your clients to specific URLs.

I honestly and truly, hate with all my heart and soul, hitting F1 and getting that new help system page. Not only the new help system but a help system for a version I don't even have! I'm pressing "F1" within CS5 and someone thought it was going to be a good idea to send it's user to the lamest help system ever, for a program we may not even own! I can hardly find answers to just about ANY problem/question as the search results are a joke. They RARELY are even close to what I typed in!
Sorry you don't like the new Help system. Maybe I can help? Help for Premiere Pro is now "versionless" and is for CS5, CS5.5, and CS6. Every page is marked with the proper version. We still have the previous Help system in PDF format. Perhaps that would work for you? If so, go here: http://helpx.adobe.com/premiere-pro/archive.html
If you are having trouble searching for articles, I agree it isn't exactly intuitive. We're working on it. In the mean time, I wrote this blog post which should help you with better search results: Better Searches for Community Help.

Set default PDF extension for Downloaded Forms - Collaborator

Is there a way of making .PDF the deafult file extension for downloaded forms?
I'm trying to dteremine if this feature is controlled by the actual subscription type pr the access type.
I have a Basic User Account setup as a Collaborator on a form which I author under a Plus subscription. I would like the default file type to be .PDF for any forms that are saved with their own unique name. However, unless I include the .PDF as part of the file name, the file saves without an extension.
Is there a way that I can set this as a default for the Collaborator because having to remeber to add the file extension is a pain.

Please see my response in your other post of the same question: http://forums.adobe.com/thread/1343769?tstart=0

Which page has a button to open a library tree javaapplet for download pdf files?

i have got the page and download some pdf files like "PLSQL User Guide and Reference" for oracle 8.1.6. But i cannt find it from the download documentation page now. please help me, i wanna download some basic concepts pdf for oracle. thks

This is not something that you can set in the code I provided. There's an app-wide setting that can be set (in principle) using code, but it's not a good idea to change it, because it applies to other documents as well.
And regarding JS and CodeAcademy: It's always a good idea to try to learn more, but keep in mind that Acrobat JS is quite a niche thing, quite different from the kind of JS that is used in web-pages. You can find more information about it here:

Turn a text database search result into a clickable .pdf link to specific images

Hello and Good Afternoon all.
This is baffling me to no end, pretty desperate at this point.
I have a successfully implemented a search and results page from my database table 'products'. The results page displays a field from this table as products, msds, datasheet, description. I would like the msds & datasheet results to be clickable links to files in my images/pdf/msds folder or the images/pdf/datasheet folder.
The links are specific filenames such as msds-product.pdf or datasheet-product.pdf.. How can I get these links to open the exact filename that comes up in my search result? I can make it open the entire folder but I want just the specific file.
I don't write code very well - thank you for any help you can provide. Cindy

Hi Murray - Here is the exact code in DW on the results page with file names exposed in live view. I am concerned about not properly implementing this statement - where exactly should I insert?
<form action="data_search.php" method="get" name="data_results_form" id="data_results_form">
         <p> </p>
         <?php do { ?>
              <table width="75%" border="0" align="center" cellpadding="5" cellspacing="5" summary="MSDS & Datasheet search results page. You may click on the hyperlinks to download pdf for each document.">

Why are calculation functions lost from Reader Extended PDF when downloaded from website?

I am creating PDF forms with most fields performing calculations. I am saving the forms out as Reader Extended PDF> Enable Additional Features. When I email the form there is no problem with the person using the form, all calculations work. The person is able to save the form and all info is present.
However, when the same file is posted on a website with a clickable link to download, once downloaded, all the calculation functions are missing from the fields. Additionally, when the user fills the form out anyway, the info in the fields is invisible.
I am on a MAC OS 10 using Acrobat X Pro. The majority of the people going to the website and using the forms are on Windows. What am I doing wrong?

It sounds like you're actually using the Preview application when viewing the form on your Mac. It does not support JavaScript, which is how the automatic calculations are implemented. It also corrupts forms when it saves them. A result of this corruption is when the form is subsequently opened in Acrobat/Reader, the fields are blank unless a field has the focus.

Error while opening PDF file downloaded from database Blob column

Hi All,
I am working on jdev 11.1.1.4.0.
In my use-case I am using filedownload Actionlistner on a link to get the PDF file stored in the database in blob field. These files are being uploaded from other use-case in adf only.
After getting the dialog box to open/save/cancel for the PDF file when i click on open then i am getting an error *'Adobe Reader could not open 'abc.pdf' because it is either not a supported file type*
or because the file has been damaged (for example, it was sent as an email attachment and wasn't correctly docoded)' for some files , and to my surprise I am able to open some files.
When I open these PDF files separately from desktop I am able to view the content of each and every file in adobe reader.
I dont know where the problem exactly lies , while uploading/downloading the file . Any ideas/thoughts to resolve this issue?
Thanks
Kanika

Thanks a lot Timo...!!!
I checked the PDF file downloaded directly from the blob column in DB, there only it is corrupted so must be the problem in uploading the file. I am checking the code line by line,, but no problem in setting the file content type,size etc.
Here is the code snippet ..
byte[] buff;
buff = new byte[(int)length]; -- Length is the file size
int bytesRead = is.read(buff);
for (int i = 0; bytesRead < buff.length; i++) {
// int b = is.read();
int b = is.read();
if (b == -1)
break;
buff[i] = (byte)b;
BlobDomain blobDomian = new BlobDomain((buff));
TestVORow = (TestVORow Impl)TestVO.createRow();
if(blobDomian != null) {
TestVORow.setAttachment(blobDomian);
am.getTransaction().commit();
This seems to be Ok to me..the same issue, file is still corrupting.
Any thoughts from your side ???
Thanks
Kanika
The problem is resolved.
Changes made are instead of
InputStream is;
used ... BufferedInputStream bis ;
and after
for (int i = 0; bytesRead < buff.length; i++) {
// int b = bis.read();
int b = bis.read();
if (b == -1)
break;
buff[i] = (byte)b;
bis.close(); // use this close bufferedInput Stream.
Able to open each and every file now..Thanks for your suggestions Timo and Frank.

Error in maintenence optimizer while selecting files for download for EHP4

HI,
We are trying to download files for upgrade of ECC (HCM) and Portal systems from EHP3 to EHP4.
This download we are doing through the Solman 7.0. Solman is currently at 7.0 but going to be upgraded soon to EHP1.
Problem is that after we select the files for download of ECC EHP4, in step 2.1 i.e. 'choose stack', the next screen shows error as "Only one EhP release is allowed additionally".
Is this because the Solman is not upgraded to EHP1 yet or soem other reason?
Please let us know.
Thanks for your time.
Thanks & Regards,
Kunal.

..have a look at the How-To Install EHP4 Guide (http://service.sap.com/~sapidb/011000358700000293582009E.PDF)
3.4.2 Only one EHP release is allowed
Issue: You get the error message: u201COnly one EHP release is allowedu201D
Reason: This problem is documented in SAP Note 1139602.
If you get this error message, then you already have installed another SAP enhancement package on this system before (for example SAP enhancement package 3 for SAP ERP 6.0).
The error tells you that you have chosen too few technical usages. If you continued with this selection, you would not update all of the software components to SAP enhancement package 4 that are currently on SAP enhancement package 3. So in the end, some software components would be on SAP enhancement package 3 while others would be on SAP enhancement package 4. That way you would have several SAP enhancement package versions in one system, which is a state that is not supported.
Solution: SAP Solution Manager Maintenance Optimizer requests you to select more technical usages and proposes a list for you to choose from.
If you implement SAP Note 1287216, then Maintenance Optimizer automatically pre-selects the technical usages that are already installed on the system. In the example here, the technical usage Central Applications has been installed on a previous version of SAP enhancement packages.
In rare cases you still get the error after accepting what SAP Solution Manager proposes. The reason for this is that you updated software components without properly covering technical usages.
Hope that helps - best regards,
Christian.
