Convert Dynamic XDP to PDF

Can PDF Generator programatically (Java) convert a dynamic XDP form that has been filled out by a user into a static PDF?
Thanks,
Bob

Hi,
Is it possible to access interactive PDF through windows logon( windows may have multiple user accounts). On one particular account , if the user enter login credentials--(if valid)--then he should access the paricular pdf( fill & submit vice versa.).
Any useful information would be appriciated.
Thanks,
Ramesh

Converting XDPs to PDFs

My company, Viga Technologies, has recently developed an object which converts Adobe Livecycle Templates (XDP) to PDF automatically. It can be deployed as a server side object to be incorporated into existing applications, as a stand alone application or as a service to be performed by our company on a per-form basis. The basic input is an Adobe Designer Template (XDP) as well as an XML data file to be merged into the final PDF. It is extremely fast and generates PDFs which have a 60-70 percent smaller file size than PDFs generated by Adobe Designer. If you have any questions, please feel free to contact me.

The file size decrease is noted in all XDP to PDF conversions, regardless of content. If you would like a demo copy, please send your company contact information me and you will recieve a customized demo version. Thankyou.

Dynamic Images in PDF and Escaping Special Characters

I used the following to create my own PDFs with dymnamic images:
http://marcsewtz.blogspot.com/2012_02_01_archive.html (Dynamic Images in PDF - What 32k Limit? )
I have installed this application on Oracle's free workspace to test.
The issue I am having is that when there is a special character in the description, such as <>'"& then the the PDF will not open. I have tried using the dmbs_xmlgen.convert to convert the description but haven't had any luck.
I'm a complete novice with xml. Any help with this is greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Glen

I have been able to find a solution, but it's not completely perfect. I have changed the "description" field as follows:
XMLCdata(replace(description,''&'',''and'')) description,
The characters greater than (>), less than (<), single qoute('), and double quote (") can now all be in the description and will not cause errors. For some reason, I couldn't get the & not to give an error no matter what I tried, so I just replaced the & with the word "and". This solution will work for my needs, but it would be nice to be able to get the & to display.
Does anyone know of a way to get the & to display correctly?
Thanks again,
Glen
The complete code I am using is below:
declare
l_print_layout clob;
l_xml_data clob;
begin
-- load print layout from database
for c1 in (
select layout from eba_pdfimg_layouts where id = :P1_LAYOUT
) loop
l_print_layout := wwv_flow_utilities.blob_to_clob(c1.layout );
end loop;
-- generate XML data
for c2 in (
select dbms_xmlgen.getxml('
select
id,
file_name,
mime_type,
XMLCdata(replace(description,''&'',''and'')) description,
-- description,
blob2clobase64(image,''Y'') image
from eba_pdfimg_images
') xml_data from dual
) loop
l_xml_data := c2.xml_data;
end loop;
-- download print document
wwv_flow.g_page_text_generated := true;
apex_util.download_print_document (
p_file_name => 'image_demo',
p_content_disposition => 'ATTACHMENT',
p_report_data => l_xml_data ,
p_report_layout => l_print_layout,
p_report_layout_type => 'rtf',
p_document_format => :P1_FORMAT
end;

How to convert the Adobe 10 PDF to Adobe LiveCycle ES2 so that I can make the text boxes expandable?

When I convert the Adobe 10 PDF to Adobe LiveCycle ES2 it is a static document, thus not allowing me to make the text boxes expandable. How do I take a current Adobe 10 PDF with Text and convert it to Adobe LiveCycle ES2 so that I can make the text boxes expandable?

Hi Alan,
TextField objects can expand dynamically. There are a few things that you need to do:
1. The TextField object should be contained in a subform that is set to Content: Flowed. This isn't technically necessary, but if you have anything below the expanding text box and the subform is set to Positioned, the text will expand and overlay what's below.
2. On the Field tab of the text field's Object property tab, check the Allow Multiple Lines checkbox
3. On the Layout tab, check the Expand To Fit checkbox under Y:/Height
4. Set the PDF Render Format under Form Properties/Defaults to Dynamic XML Form. If you're previewing in Designer, don't forget to set the preview to Dynamic too.

Convert site content to pdf

Sorry to disturbe you all, i do see sometime when am searching online, that some website just open in like a pdf format, so you can download all the content of the site at once. just like a website grabber. This site clearcydia.com, and other forums contain some post i need and i cant go through them all at once. How can i get a page into pdf and read later without having to copy and past.

No.
Adobe Acrobat Reader only views pdf files. What you need is something that can convert web pages into pdf files. Acrobat Reader isn't the right tool. The only tool I know that Adobe makes is, like I mentioned earlier, Adobe Acrobat.
Keep in mind that even Acrobat may or may not work as expected. It really depends on the site itself and how it is set up. Some sites work, others don't. Especially sites that serve up dynamic content.
You can give it a shot by installing the fully functional trial of Adobe Acrobat (good for 30 days) from here: Adobe Document Cloud | Adobe Acrobat DC

Convert XFA form to PDF document

Within a process, I have form defined as a xfa variable and user can fill it in workspace and also include attachment when submitting the form.
Then after the form is processed, approved by manager I need to convert it to a pdf(which should contain attachments) and save it to a folder. how can I do that?
Thanks.

There is another way but it's a manual process and it's a HACK. Using this process will basically kill any XFA or JS functionality that was in the form previously. So proceed at your own risk...
Use a tool that can view and edit the internals of a "static" LiveCycle PDF form (i.e. Windjack's PDFCanOpener).
Delete the XFA dictionary
Do a SaveAs to a new form name.
Close the form
Re-open the form and then you should be able to edit the form with the Acroform tools.
Note: This WILL NOT work with dynamic forms.

It seems like Live Cycle is a server side application for pages on my own server. I need the ability to go out to other servers request dynamic pages from them and convert those pages to PDF. Right now i am using a fire fox add on "PDF touch" that lets me convert my current browsed page to pdf. I want this same functionality but with a list of pages. Is this possible with any Adobe products??

Convert SPList Items to PDF using iTextSharp

Hi, how can i convert SPList Items to PDF using itextsharp?

hi
in addition to other replies I would like to mention that most natural way to give users possibility to export list item to pdf is to create new context menu command "Export to PDF" (in those context menu which is shown when mouse pointer
hovers the list item) and handler of this command in query string should receive ID of list item, for which user clicked it (it can be implemented as common ASP.Net ashx handler). Then in codebehind handler should open list item using passed id and send fields'
values to itextsharp or any other library you would like to use for exporting to PDF. In order to see how to create PDF documents with itextsharp you should check documentation of this library.

Converting bmp file to pdf

Hi all,
Please help me to solve this:
1) convert bmp file to PDF( using FM) .
2)There can be many such bmp files ..append them to single pdf file after converting them.
Thanks and Regards,
KC

As has been discussed many times here before, you can't really merge PDF files programmatically in ABAP after they have been created. Your best bet with this 'unique' requirement is to use a form-based approach I think.
With a smartform one approach is to create a single page with a window with a graphics node (dynamic name) in it, with the bitmap name specified in the form interface. Unless you have already loaded the bitmaps in the graphics manager (SE78), you would load the bitmaps at runtime from the presentation server or the application server and then create the graphics dynamically using the methods of class CL_BDS_DOCUMENT_SET prior to calling the form for each bitmap (a topic discussed recently in the ABAP forums or you can view how SE78 does it by checking the code). Create a merged spool and then use the standard function to convert the OTF data to PDF format.
A similar approach can be used with Adobe forms, but you would need to load the bitmaps to the web repository, not the graphics manager.
What exactly is in the bmp files and where are they stored? Are they form templates? You may get a better answer with more details.

Dynamic Images in PDF Report

Hi,
I want to create Badges from employee table (ID, NAME, JOB_TITLE, PHOTO). I downloaded and installed a demo application "USING DYNAMIC IMAGES IN PDF REPORT". It works fine with smale images < 20K. I'm getting the following error for images > 20K :
"ORA-06502: PL/SQL: numeric or value error: raw variable length too long"
it seems like a buffer problem.
could you pls help to solve this problem
Thanks,
Ribhi

Hi Carsten
That was exactly* I was looking for. Maybe I should Google more in German ;-)
The main problem was that I defined my image outside the first repeating group (that doesn't repeat, it's always just one object) - the first group is followed by 7 more.
Just like the "Name" (that's positioned outside the group in the document header), I positioned the image above the table representing the group.
Doing that, the "Name" is filled correctly, the Image only when the Output Format is Excel or HTML - not Word or PDF ... makes no sense but that's tje way it is.
After moving the image inside the group....it works great!
(One more thing...the image size is fixed to the image you use as "dummy". Is there any way to make that more flexible, because now some scaling happens...)???
@Trent: That was the way we initially did it, but when the size of the row exceeds 32K...you know what happens.. And even with a small image the 32K limit is hit easily
The way I use it now (very similar to Carsten's description) there is no limit....
Thank you all!

How to make Adobe acrobat feature to convert SAP Pages to PDF available for multiple users connected to the same server

We have installed Adobe Acrobat X Pro- English,Francais,Deutsch version 10.1.9 in our test environment and tried testing it for converting SAP pages into PDF with a few pilot users. In doing so we faced a challenge, where only one user at a time can use Adobe Acrobat PRO to convert SAP pages in to PDF.As long as the first user who is connected to Adobe Acrobat Pro via SAP isn’t logged off, other users connected to the same server are not being able to get the “Save As” dialog box to save the PDF in their preferred location.
This is a business requirement and we need an urgent solution for the same. Can anyone help us in telling us if this is possible and if yes the how to go about?

It's not something we deal with here, the LiveCycle products are a different world. Key points: Adobe LiveCycle is a range of products, some desktop, some server. LiveCycle PDF Generator is the one you should look at, it comes in 3 editions. License terms are by negotiation. Key management is via its Java API.

Is it possible to convert a DWF to PDF using a command line or batch process. How can I see this in action?

I need to convert DWF files to PDF. Is this possible? Adobe able to batch them and can they be converted via a batch or scheduled process.
We have a team placing DWF files on a network drive. Then we need to scoop them up and convert them. Using SSIS or a C# program we can move the converted files to an archive folder. Is this possible to do using Adobe?

Hi pnorm,
Please check the 'Convert AutoCAD files in batches' section in the Doc : http://help.adobe.com/en_US/acrobat/X/pro/using/WS58a04a822e3e50102bd615109794195ff-7f35.w .html
