Controlling filename of local copies of PDF document taken from a SharePoint Online library

I have a library of technical documents in SharePoint Online. People need to be able to attach them to emails to send to potential customers but I want to define the filename that will be applied when the document is copied out of SharePoint into the email,
and it won't be identical to the filename under which the file was originally uploaded but rather a concatenation of the original file name and some other fields from the library including the document type and version number.
I only have out-of-the-box SharePoint Online available and I'm a SharePoint novice, but I'm willing to have a go at some customisation if it's not too difficult.

Thanks for the reply Alex!
Certainly, as an example:
Under my top level site Collection:
/subsiteA has been created using the records centre template, and I have a document library: "test docs A" in this subsite.
In subsiteA I have a content type called "Test Content Type"
"Test Content Type" has a column "test column A" which is a basic text column.
When I upload a word document to this library, then open it again, I can see the "test column A" in the document metadata (which appears in Quick Parts).  However, "Document ID Value" does not appear.  If I run the same scenario
on /subsiteB (created using the team site template), Document ID Value does appear.
With regards to {_UIVersion}:
When I turn on an Information Management Policy and enable the Label feature, I can add {Version} to the field successfully.  However, when I upload and open a document from the document library in /subsiteA, the "Label" metadata is inserted
in the word document, however the value is {_UIVersion}, rather than the numeric value of the sharepoint item version (ie, 3.2).  When I do the same against /subsiteB, the "Label" metadata does contain the sharepoint item version correctly.
I installed the "SharePoint Manager 2013 Online" app to the library.  As you say, it looks like the enableparser property is not anywhere to be found.  The only difference I can see is: RootWeb->Webs->subsiteA.WebTemplate = OFFILE
whereas RootWeb->Webs->subsiteB.WebTemplate = STS.
I hope that makes some sense and thanks for the help!

  • Relative hyperlinks in pdf documents printed from visio 2007

    Hello to all. The problem we are trying to solve is to maintain relative hyperlinks that were created in visio 2007 when we publish or print a pdf document. The pdf document that we printed is written in adobe reader 9, and it maintains the hyperlinks but as absolute ones and we required the hyperlinks to maintain as relatives. The idea is to distribute the pdf document with its hyperlinks and the documents that are linked to it in different computers that are not in the same network. The documents that we are trying to link are pdf, word and excel 2007 documents. The operating system we use is Microsoft vista home premium. Does anyone know how to maintain relative hyperlinks in a pdf document printed from visio 2007? Thanks in advance!

    Bernd Alheit, thanks for your answer. We print the pdf document from visio 2007 and then we read it in adobe reader 9. The relative hyperlinks work fine in visio 2007, but they change to absolute ones in the pdf document.

  • All my PDFs/documents disappeared from my iphone 4

    All my PDFs/documents disappeared from my iphone 4( version) 6.1.3 after i restored my device, while these PDFs still exist in my itunes books list. I can't as well add new PDFs/documents to my ibooks app.Please help.

    A backup includes most items in iBooks, but I believe it does not include PDF files.  Are you saying that in the App tab (in itunes), for iBooks, the PDF files still show up?  Or do you mean something else by "itunes books list"?

  • How can I copy documents from a Sharepoint On Premises library to a Sharepoint Online library and at the same time preserving their metadata?

    How can I copy documents from a Sharepoint On Premises library to a Sharepoint Online library and at the same time preserving their metadata?
    I use the Open Explorer Windows to drag and drop the files, but the metadata are not copied. Thanks.

    To maintain the metadata you'll need to use one of the third party tools that does this kind of migration.  Metalogix has a product with a free trial that we have used before.  (Don't remember whether the free version maintains metadata or not).

  • When a pdf is taken from illustrator, white lines appears on images. How can be avoided it?

    When a pdf is taken from illustrator, white lines appears on images. How can be avoided it?
    I use illustrator cs5. It occures mostly on the cover pages of brochures which contains images, texts and some effects such as drop shadow etc.

    Thanks for your reply.
    When smooth line art is turned off in Acrobat preferences,the lines disappears but the text becomes raserized and goes its smoothness. Not only that, we are not sure that everyone who is viewing the pdf has the same settings in their laptop or desktop.
    Is there any other solution to remove these lines? I have added the screenshot of a part of the pdf.
    Thanks once again for your support.

  • Hyperlinks in a PDF document converted from Word 2003

    I have a large document for our state's mathematics vocabulary. It has internal hyperlinks to help someone navigate the document. I created it in Word 2003 and converted it to PDF using the tool in the menu bar. When finished, the PDF document has some working hyperlinks near the beginning (about a third of them), but most of the links (in the last two-thirds) do not work. I have also tried doing the conversion from Adobe Acrobat Professional 8 (8.1.4), but I get the same results. Can someone help me solve this problem so the PDF document has all working links? Thanks.

    Yes, you can create a script in Acrobat that loops through the links and adjusts the link's "rect" property to suit your needs. You'll want to consult the Acrobat JavaScript Reference, and look at the doc.getLinks method in particular: http://livedocs.adobe.com/acrobat_sdk/9.1/Acrobat9_1_HTMLHelp/JS_API_AcroJS.88.479.html
    along with the Link object properties: http://livedocs.adobe.com/acrobat_sdk/9.1/Acrobat9_1_HTMLHelp/JS_API_AcroJS.88.802.html
    Post again if you get stuck.
    I don't know what control you have over this on the InDesign side of things. You may want to ask in one of the InDesign forums if you haven't already.

  • Opening a pdf document automatically from the program

    Hi guys,
    I wonder if it's possible to 'run'/open from a standalone appliation a pdf document. I mean, my program produces a pdf file and it saves it on the local c drive. once this is completed i wonder how can i open it and show it to the enduser. (I want to save the time and hassle of locating it and double clicking the document)
    thanks
    peter

    Let me elaborate a little more on what I am trying to do.
    (1) A website (#1) is opened after entering a UID and PWD.
    (2) Within website #1, a link is clicked which opens a second web app (#2) in a seperate window using window.open().
    (3) Within website #2, a user can click on a link which opens a PDF as _SELF.
    (4) If the user:
         (a) exits out of website #1 by closing the brower
         (b) we would like to automatically close the PDF from website #2 also, as this contains sensitive information and most of the time the users are forgetting to close it

  • Will only give print option of "current frame" for a six page PDF document opened from link in Safari.

    I'm new to Mac having just moved from a PC.  The TD Ameritrade site provides statements as PDF documents which are opened by clicking on a link.  The document is displayed in a pop-up window and there is no problem viewing all pages by scrolling.  But there is no PDF toolbar and Safari will only allow me the option of printing the "current frame", not the entire document or several pages.  What am I missing?  Does the Mac not actually bring it up as a PDF? 

    Hold down the OPTION key and click on the link. That will cause the document to download to wherever you set DLs to go. Then, open it in Preview and print everything.

  • How do i remove local copies of my iCloud files from my iPhone?

    I have a 32GB iPhone 5. I've been using iCloud since its beginning and it does a great job of keeping everything in sync across all devices, but the more I use it, the more I see it taking up space.  How do I remove all of the local/hard copies of my iCloud files from my device without deleting them from iCloud, also? Particularly, i've noticed that, in Keynote on iOS, my presentations will have the cloud icon, showing that they are available for download, but not actually on my device... once i download a presentation to my phone, how to i remove the actual file from my phone, while keeping my icloud copy available for future download? I would love to be able to do this with all of my iWork files on iOS, as it would save me a few gigs of data storage on my iPhone.
    in similar fashion, is there a way to remove the local files from my Photostream on my iPhone, while keeping them available to view in a "streaming" fashion? As it is now, if i take an HDR photo and save the HDR and the standard to my camera roll, it then uploads both images to Photostream, which is great, but then i have another copy of both images stored locally on my phone in my photostream folder... this means if i hit the shutter once i wind up with four 8MP images stored on my device... that adds up fast. I understand that people want the security of knowing they have a hard copy backup, but I would love to have the option, at least, to keep my photo stream from being stored on my iPhone/iPad... I want to be able to stream my pictures, just like i stream my music with iTunes Match.  Does this make sense? Does this option already exist and i've just missed it?
    Any help with either of these will be a HUGE help, and very appreciated.

  • Hyperlinks in pdf documents created from Keynote

    For some reason the hyperlinks I've recently added to a keynote document are not active when I convert it to a pdf document. Neither Preview nor Adobe recognise them as hyperlinks.
    I've made the hyperlinks active using the inspector, and give the full url, including the http://. Can anybody help?

    Bernd Alheit, thanks for your answer. We print the pdf document from visio 2007 and then we read it in adobe reader 9. The relative hyperlinks work fine in visio 2007, but they change to absolute ones in the pdf document.

  • Unable to view pdf documents opened from a website

    I'm not able to view pdf documents, e.g. bank statements or tax returns, when opened from a website. If the site offers the option to download, I can do that and have no problem opening the downloaded file and viewing in pdf. The problem is when the pdf file opens in another window, or in a window within a window - then I just get a black screen where the pdf document should be. Has anyone encountered this and fixed it? I've already followed any help I can find online, like making sure pop-up blocker is turned off, and that java, java script are enabled, and downloading most recent adobe acrobat. So far, nothing has worked.

  • Is there anyway to transfer a pdf document (book) from iBooks to a third-party app like PDF Expert?

    I've been having problems using Dropbox to transfer a large pdf document(2.3GB) from my MacBook Pro to my iPad. Each time I upload the document to my Dropbox, the file becomes unreadable. I am able to read the document on my MacBook Pro before uploading it to my Dropbox, however. Since the uploading process seems to be corrupting the file somehow, I decided to transfer the file using iTunes, which places the doument into the iBooks app on my iPad. I have opened the file using the iBooks app and I am able to read it, but I want to be able to use PDF Expert to read the document and so I need to somehow move the document from iBooks to PDF Expert. Is there a way to transfer the file? Or I'm I now limited to using iBooks only? Any assistance would be appreciated.

    Have you tried GoodReader? It claims to handle very large file sizes and it's very good for annotations. It's my PDF reader of choice on the iPad
    From the GoodReader manual:
    File types to view in GoodReader
    There are two types of viewing engines - the ones that we've written ourselves, and the built-in device's standard viewing engine. Our own engines provide great flexibility and many additional features not found in the built-in engine (for example, opening very large files). The built-in engine is very powerful and knows many file formats, but has many limitations and no additional features.
    Files of very big size (our own viewing engine):
    very large PDF files (including password-protected). File size is not the limit. Revolutionary PDF Reflow (Extract Pure Text) mode. See Viewing PDF Files for details.
    very large TXT files. See Viewing TXT Files for details.
    high-resolution pictures and other graphic files (including slideshow viewing mode). See Viewing Pictures for details.
    And as a free bonus - files of normal size (iOS standard viewing engine):
    all file formats supported by Safari engine: Microsoft Office files - Word, Excel, PowerPoint, HTML files and Safariwebarchives
    iWork'08/09 files - Pages, Numbers, Keynote (files must be saved with Include Preview option)
    .ai files saved with PDF Compatible option
    audio files (natively supported by iOS)
    video files (natively supported by iOS)

  • Count documents in a SharePoint online library using PowerShell

    Hi,
    I would like to use PowerShell to iterate through a site (and its sites) and count how many documents are in each document library.
    Does anyone know if this is possible for SharePoint online please?
    Thanks

    yes. You can set an ID on counter. I don't have any idea about how to do that from the PowerShell but from SharePoint online it is possible by going in to document library settings and then select default view (All documents). Then go and then select
    ID as column and there is an option over there Total. If you select the ID column drop down you will get an option called count select that and click ok. Then go back to your document library and see the count of the documents you have in your doc library.
    If you find this information helpful then please propose this as answer and vote. Thanks.

    Hello guys,
    I'm facing some design issue with sharepoint 2010 and Microsoft office, hope you can help me to fix this.

    Hi Jeyaraman, in addition to Alex's solution, check the following browser settings:
    Make sure “Enable protected mode” in security tab & “Require server verification” in “sites” area are unchecked. In “Custom level,” choose “Automatic logon” way at the bottom.
