Container Layout Web Item supported for PDF Printing (Stack 11)

Dear all and Mr. Prakash Darji
I had an information that PDF export would be supported for Container Layout Web Item with SPS11. We hrecently have installed SPS11 but the functionality is still not available.
Does any one have more info on this ? Has SAP changed the plan ?
The current document at the service marketplace about functional enhancements on the following link does not say any thing about this.
Link:

I would be greatful for any input on this
Thanks

I' an APEX newbie and believe I am having the same or a similar problem. I am (for now) developing a system using the hosted Apex development system online. I have created a Report Query which works fine with the default layout. I downloaded the XML (tried both sample data and schema) into Word 2007 with the BI Publisher Template Builder. I used the table wizard to create a simple layout containing all columns with no customization at all. Saved as an RTF, uploaded to Apex as a Report Layout, associated it with the Report Query, clicked Test Report -- and I got nothing.
When the is a PDF, I get the same error you mention ( Adobe Reader could not open the <file name> 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 decoded ). If I switch to an HTML file the out is just a blank screen.
If I switch back to generic report layout, it works fine. This suggests there is something wrong with the template, though it looks fine in Word with the sample data.
I've searched the forums and Google for the better part of a day. What am I missing?

Weblogic 10.3.4 as report printer for PDF printing using apex_fop.jsp

Hello,
Is it possible to use the apex_fop.jsp in combination with Oracle Weblogic 10.3.4 for PDF printing?
We have managed to get our Apex application to print PDF documents using Apache FOP with Oracle Weblogic 10.3.3 or Apache Tomcat 6 as a report printer.
But when we are trying the Oracle Weblogic 10.3.4 server as report printer, we will get the Error 500--Internal Server Error error in the pdf.
One of application server log shows the error "Expected Node-set in Path Expression".

Steve,
I am using JSF2.0 and getting javax.el.ExpressionFactory NoClassDefFound issues.
OEPE Helios
Weblogic 10.3.3
I have an EAR containing one WAR.
WEB-INF/lib
el-api-2.2jar
el-imp-2.2.jar
jsf-api.jar (2.1.1)
jsf.impl.jar (2.1.1)
jstl.jar (1.1.0-D13)
web.xml has
     <context-param>
          <param-name>com.sun.faces.expressionFactory</param-name>
          <param-value>com.sun.el.ExpressionFactoryImpl</param-value>
     </context-param>
EAR has
weblogic-application.xml with
<wls:prefer-application-packages>
<wls:package-name>org.eclipse.persistence.*</wls:package-name>
<wls:package-name>javax.faces.*</wls:package-name>
<wls:package-name>com.sun.faces.*</wls:package-name>
     <wls:package-name>com.sun.el.*</wls:package-name>
     <wls:package-name>javax.el.*</wls:package-name>
</wls:prefer-application-packages>
I see by your post that JSF2.0 support can be solved by either deploying a shared-library or using the weblogic.Deployer utility. Unfortunately, we don't have access to change the Weblogic instance in any way. I was hoping that using the prefer-application-packages would be sufficient to use alternative classes to Weblogic's but I have not been able to get it to work for the javax.el classes. I have tried not including javax.el and the app deploys but then accessing a page produces a javax.el.ELResolver no method found for invoke. Invoke being a newer method defined in el-api-2.2.jar. If I was able to convince them to add some shared libs, what are all the jars that would be required to make this work?
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
John

SOLVED - BIOS UPDATE "SYSTEM DOES NOT CONTAIN the NECESSARY WMI SUPPORT for this VERSION of HPQflash

If you get infamous error when updating HP Portables (laptops/notebooks/ netbooks) BIOS within Windows:
"SYSTEM DOES NOT CONTAIN THE NECESSARY WMI SUPPORT FOR THIS VERSION OF HPQFLASH":
I am posting a solution found for own business laptop (HP 8540W & 8760W) so WebSearch engines index/register it in a few days - future sufferers come here and get a SOLUTION, finally. Disreagrd previous "experts" advises, they don't work 100% & pity on TechSupport folks who get HP paychecks yet don't know products their co. designs/manufactures (on deep Technical level):
Below is a SOLUTION (WORKING) !
Go into Services (Run "services.msc" or get there thru ControlPanel-->AdminTools-->), find following 2 services ==> make sure they're running, chances are they're NOT (as in my case I keep them disabled unless need running):
1) "HP Software Framework"
2) "HP Service" [no typo - a real plain name]
If not running, set Properties-->Manual and click "Start", make sure both are running.
Rerun BIOS updater, choose option for "Within Windows" or something to that effect (using HPQ/ROMpaq updater), rather than "create USB BootDisk on Key", this time it should work without the hassle of a BootDisk creation.
Should work from within Windows environment.
Notes:
a) Likely only one (1) service is responsible - namely "HP Software Framework" for HPQ Updater to fail, but doesn't hurt to reenable/restart both services.
I in fact am responding to other customers who elect to Update BIOS within Windows, perhaps oldfashioned but to me Boot Updater is more natural & always works regardless of WMI Support.
b) After done, don't forget:
*) Recheck BIOS settings - update may've added new and/or changed old, so rescan tobe sure.
**) Go BACK into Windows-->Services.msc & redisable both aforementioned Services if were originally disabled; or you're a computer Pro, you know what you're doing & like me keep all HP services disabled. The ones we got on EliteBook 8760W are pests consuming system resources, you just enable "Software Framework" when occasional issues emerge with HP softupdate (typically no issues) & redisable after use, rest of services are bloatware - some attempt to overrun Windows Wireless console, some seekout HP Networked printers (Ethernet, Wireless, but not USB), some do this & that - I study/know which one does what and decided to disable all. This is called a "minimalist" philosophy & turns your machine into a fast beast, I recently sold a very obsolete 4-year laptop which however handles 3DMCAD & complex designs/simulations, better new machines out fo a store, as new machines are loaded w/bloatware chocking down resources.
BUT nobody is requiring you to disable anything though.
The solution merely states the fact:
These 2 (or 1) services when not running halt BIOS Update "within Windows" (you can still run "BootDisk option", however, if preferred).
Simply restartung them solves your problem. Usually
Ya'll have a good day and enjoy!
===========
BELOW ARE IMPORTANT WARNINGS:
1) IF YOUR BIOS UPDATE STILL FAILS, SOME OTHER PIECE IN WMI SUPPORT IS MISSING - IN MY CASE WAS THESE 2 SERVICES, BUT THERE'S REMOTE POSSIBILITY SOMETHING ELSE MIGHT BLOCK UPDATER. DON'T WASTE TIME & CHOOSE "USB/BootDisk" options instead
2) Once BIOS updater does its job, will ask to auto-restart - let it go on & complete, it will self-shutdown (click "Next" to skip 60-second timer), then do NOT turn it on manually!, wait - it'll turn on by itself in 15 seconds, let it boot into Windows, you're done!
3) WARNING: close other apps before proceeding, be 100% sure your ACpower won't be interrupted or better yet - make sure battery is in/charged (so if ACpower accidentally disconnects, you're autoswitched onto battery) b/c power loss may result in severe damage to internal hardware. In the old days it'd result in fatal damage, these days powerloss would still result in a major repair (ROM chip corruption).
So to summarize: those 2 services I specified, are often responsible for whether HPQ/ROMpaq will or won't run.
Other causes possible, but I've not witnessed; and if so - choose BootDisk option.

Publisher name in Item info for PDF is not displayed

Hi All,
Publisher name in Item info for PDF is not displayed (shows; unkown publisher) in Adobe Digital Editions. The Adobe Acrobat Professional does not have "Publisher" field to add Publisher name; it facilitates user to provide "Title", "Author", "Subject" and "Keywords" into the Document Properties (Ctrl+D)
Some one please guide, to get Publisher name in "item info" for PDF in Adobe Digital Editions.
Cheers
Vikas

For PDF the Publisher name comes only from the encryption information that is included when a PDF file is packaged for use by Adobe Content Server. If this information was not included at packaging time there is no end user method for adding it in after the fact.

WAD defaults for PDF printing?

Hi There,
First of all I'm sorry if this is not the correct section but please correct me is that's the case.
Is there any way to change default margin values for PDF printing? I can change them on template but from where comes those default values and can I change those?
Thanks in advance,
Jari

Hi,
Yes but if I don't set them in "EXPORT" I'll get for example default margins "25" from somewhere. Is there any way to set those defaults to something else?

How do i get PCL5 support for P1606dn printer windows 7 64-bit

how do i get PCL5 support for P1606dn printer windows 7 64-bit

The full solution, off the product page, is the recommended solution for this product. It works for most windows applications and installed by default.
The PCL 5 UPD driver only works for the 1606 models and is recommeneded for general office printing and 3rd party or custom software programs.
The XPS print driver (off the prodcut page) is recommened for capturing and printing exactly what is on the screen.
When you install the UPD driver, I would recommend that your install it in the traditional mode instead of the dynamic mode. Just my preference. This way you don't have to wait for it to search for the printer everytime you want to print.
I am an HP employee.
Say Thanks by clicking the Kudos Star in the post that helped you.

How can i prevent modifing the itemes in Adobe PDF Printer Setting?

Hi,
I have installed an Adobe Acrobat X Pro 10.1.0 in windows xp.In print dialog,push the Property button,it will appear a dialog of Adobe PDF Setting,one of the setting itemes is "View the Adobe PDF Results",it can be set to view or not view the new created PDF file. I want hold the default setting and prevent modifing it,How can i do? can it be realized by javascript program?Thanks a lot!

Hi,Test Screen Name
Because HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Print\Printers\Ad obe PDF\ is the dir where to set the property of Adobe PDF printer when windows load it , this is experience, no documentation(or i don't find) , perhaps there will be other registry itemes which does not list in that dir ,but i don't know , that is why i think it just like what you have said ' It looks very like a "discovery" rather than a policy ' . For this reason , i want to realize it by adobe acrobat SDK programming ,but now the second way is impossible. Thank you again !

Web Service Support for WebLogic

Add Support for Web Services to WebLogic using IONA's XMLBus
For anyone interested in Web services, IONA has just released a free
technology preview of iPortal XMLBus, with support for BEA WebLogic 6.0
patch 1. You can download it today from www.xmlbus.com, a Web site entirely
dedicated to Web services.
The iPortal XMLBus Technology Preview enables Java Developers to turn
existing EJBs and Java Applications into Web services. XMLBus is 100% pure
Java and installs seamlessly on top of the
WebLogic. It implements the W3C v1.1 draft specifications of SOAP and WSDL.
SOAP is the communication protocol used by Web services to traverse over
HTTP, SNMP, and FTP. WSDL has become the standard for describing Web service
interfaces in XML.
XMLBus automates the process of turning Java classes into Web services,
ensuring that Java developers do not need to learn a whole new programming
language to turn existing applications into Web services.
Wizards guide the developer through the identification of interfaces and
methods the developer wants to become a Web service. The wizard deploys a
SOAP Listener and a WSDL interface for that Java Class, as well as Java
client proxy applications. The client proxy can easily be incorporated into
any Java Application to invoke the corresponding methods described in the
WSDL.
Download a free copy of the iPortal XMLBus Technology Preview from:
http://www.xmlbus.com/work/
Post Questions to the XMLBus Newsgroup:

This is fixed now. Someone had defined a Servlet for the web service in web.xml that was preventing the EJB container to kick in.

Web Services support for collection like ArrayList

Getting this error message:
"<Info> Did not find property empty in java.util.ArrayList:
java.lang.NullPointerException"
Are collections like ArrayList supported or am I trying to do something that
can't be done? Any suggestions?
Thanks
Danny

Hi Danny,
Betcha thought I forgot 'bout cha, huh?
I didn't ;-)
The short answer to your question is no; WLS 6.1 does not support using any of
the classes in java.util.*. However, it does support Object arrays as an element
of an Object array, which means you can have code in you service implementation
that looks like this:
public Object[] getNestedObjects()
     Object[] objects = new Object[2];
     objects[0] = new Object[]{
          new String("23.76"),
          new Float((float)23.76)
     // Here, WorkOrder is a JavaBean or an object
     // that implements weblogic.soap.xml.XMLizable
     WorkOrder[] workOrders = new WorkOrder[]{
                    new WorkOrder(),
                    new WorkOrder(),
                    new WorkOrder()
     objects[1] = new Object[]{
          new String("My name is"),
          new String("Slim Shady"),
          workOrders
     return objects;
The main issue I see with doing this is again, interoperability ;-)
If the SOAP toolkit consuming the WSDL for the web service with the above method
cannot handle the "xsd:anyType" XML Schema data type, you're in trouble. In general,
SOAP toolkits want to know what type an element is so they can process it correctly.
When you use a Variant data type (in Visual Basic) or java.lang.Object (in Java),
you are basically promoting the use of weak data typing (or late binding). From
what I've read about SOAP (well, actually what Don Box said he had in mind), XML
Schema and namespaces were adopted to combat this very thing- weak or no data
typing. Personally, I agree ;-) I think strong data typing makes processing a
SOAP request much easier and faster, for everyone. Don't get me wrong, I don't
have anything against object casting, but SOAP parameters (and return values)
are not objects. They are XML elements, just like the other parts of the SOAP
message. There is no behavior, just state. This being the case, isn't it safer
to stick with the data types (e.g. arrays, structures, primitives, etc.) defined
in the SOAP spec and "XML Schema Part 2: Datatypes" document? Enough SOAP boxing
(pun intended). If you are interested in the "complexTypes" object graphs (using
developer defined classes that implement weblogic.soap.xml.XMLizable) lab results,
I can send you a zip. The biggest difference between using JavaBeans and objects
that implement weblogic.soap.xml.XMLizable, is that you have much more control
over which Java objects the later gets serialized/deserialized to/from. With classes
that implement weblogic.soap.xml.XMLizable, the SOAP processor passes you the
actual XML stream for the SOAP parameter (which in this case, is your developer
defined class). It (the SOAP processor) also calls your developer defined class
to get an XML representation for it's data types. It works great with Java clients
(using the client.jar, of course), and I'm trying it out with .NET and MS SOAP
clients this weekend. The most interesting revelation was figuring out how wsgen
(well, actually the WSDL processor) generates the information in the <types> element
of the WSDL ;-) I actually even know how to code an XMLizable so that it produces
the exact element and attribute names I want. I also figure out how to get it
to produce an <element ...>, as opposed to a <attribute ...>, and visa versa.
Of course, WLS 7.0 (and WebLogic Workshop) make all of this a moot point, but
it was fun to get the SOAP/WSDL processors in WLS 6.1 to "do my bidding" for a
short while ;-)

Mike Wooten

Hi Mike,
Thank you for your response. Do you know if WLS 6.1 Web Services support
the
return of nested object array (object that contains other object arrays).

Deploying the fop.war file for PDF printing

I suppose this should maybe be in the App server thread but im following instructions from here to enable PDF printing in APEX
http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/developer-tools/apex/application-express/configure-printing-093060.html#05
The instructions are a bit out of date but
I navigate to the OC4J home > select applications > Deploy WAR file
browse for the fop.war file on local machine
for Application Name i have ApexFOP
for Map to URL I have /apex/fop
then I click Deploy
it says succesfully loaded but when I click on the ApexFOP in the Deployed applications list it says not loaded
I have re-started the OC4J
any help would be very gratefully recieved , I'm going nuts trying to do this
Cheers

Acrobat support for PDF 1.4

Are there any plans to stop supporting PDF 1.4 in Adobe Reader?
Thanks,
John Sulik

I seriously doubt Adobe will do that since PDF 1.4 is the basis for PDF/A (PDF for Archive).

ICloud support for .pdf file format

Help mentions iCloud supports .pdf file formats, but then does not show anything about how to get one of these files onto iCloud. Since the pdf files I have were never created by one of the supported Application how does one place or retrieve a pdf file to/from iCloud?
Thanks

PSE 4 does do 16 bit - although there are a limited number of things you can do at that depth.
It has essentially no support for actions.

Web Item Selection for Characteristic Structures

Hello experts,
I have created a web template with a query that has some characteristic structures. When planning functions are executed, I want to restrict the affect against the structures using web item selection (data binding). Is it possible to set data binding for strucures?
Thank you.

Hello Gernot!
Did you find a solution for using row selection in combination with a structure in the query?
I face a similar situation and one solution I found so far is to use an dropdown-box to make the selection although I would prefer using the row selection-feature as it is more convenient and obvious to the user.

Samsung ML-1210 foomatic+gdi - no support for envelope printing?

I've installed the Open Source foomatic+gdi print drivers for my Samsung ML-1210 laser printer on my two Macs running Panther (10.3.9). Printing ordinary pages works fine, but the supplied PPD doesn't have any support for envelopes or the fact that the envelope feeder is centered on the print drum. Anyone know of a better PPD or other solution which correctly prints envelopes?

Welcome to the Apple Discussion forums.
I don't have this printer and am not familiar with the gdi drivers. Were there PPDs that came with the download or built from compiling the drivers? In looking at the foomatic generated PPD, I do see that there is a definition for envelopes. For example, I do see the imageable area for a #10 envelope:
*ImageableArea Env10/Envelope #10: "0 0 297 684"
Do you find lack of support for envelopes in all applications or just certain ones? Are you selecting the envelope in Page Setup from the File menu?
I really don't pretend to have any firm answers here; just a line of things to look at when troubleshooting.

No effective support for new printer from HP

I just tried to get support for a Laserjet I bought about a year ago.
The HP support operation just sends the user in circles.
I visited the website. I watched a video. I read docs. At their
suggestion, I filled out a dopey e-mail form.
They sent return e-mail, saying I couldn't reply to their response.
Then they sent another e-mail -- asking me for all the information I
already had sent them.
No phone number. No fault-specific website. No human's name.
These people are worse than Wal-Mart. My printer has been down
24 hours, now looks like that outage will last a week. For a LaserJet!
Epson, anyone?

HP provides toll free support for 1 year and life of product e-mail and IM support. Did you ever register your printer?
When you use the e-mail support there is an automated acknowledgement of your question that can't be responded to, that is SOP for many e-mail support operations. They may then ask for additional information to solve your problem. It may seem like info you previously gave them. If so, point that out in your response. You can also choose to enter a chat session with an HP rep for real time support. I've been using HP products exclusively for over 7 years, everytime I've needed to ask for support, my questions have been answered completely and quickly.
Hope this helps,
Scott
