Converting excel documents to rdf?

anyone know how to convert excel spreadsheets to an rdf document? i know there are programs that do it but i would like to write my own! cheers.

1. You need to know how to read an Excel sheet.you can use the Jakarta POI library to read and write MS Excel file.
http://jakarta.apache.org/poi/
Note: this library supports limited set of features (but it's one of the best free library to access MS document)
2. You need to know how to write a RDF.you need to find a RDF API (much easier than to create one)
http://jrdf.sourceforge.net/

Converting excel document into a tempravory database

i have to acept a excel document and convert it to the tempravory database and allow the user to edit .if the user have changed anything it should change the details in the excel document.
anybody know how to do this..

I dont have time to explain what datasource is but you can create one as :
I have Windows XP box here, to do it you need to go to
Control Panel >> Administrative Tools >> Data Source(ODBC) >> System DSN >> Add >> select Excel sheet driver >> hit ok then it will ask you for datasource name now give what ever name you want to give and select your excel file from select tab.
And that's it now use the datasource name in "jdbc:odbc:your datasource name "

Problem converting excel document to PDF

The Adobe Acrobat Pro X has started converting all pages of my excel documents into one single page PDF. I have set the page breaks correctly in excel, so I am not sure why Adobe is converting the documents like this?? Thanks!!

Under the Acrobat ribbon in Excel, click on Prefereces, and make sure you have "Fit Worksheet to a single page" turned off.

Convert excel document to Appleworks help

I have a 10.6.8 OS. I need to be able to open, read and write to an Excel document a co-worker is sending me. Can't even open it......

Although in the past, AppleWorks 6 was able to open almost all Word & Excel documents, it is not able to open those saved with newer versions of either Mac or PC application. The Office translators in AppleWorks were introduced in late 2000 or early 2001 & have not been updated. In the meantime, Microsoft has made significant changes in the file formats & AppleWorks can't open them any more. AppleWorks 6 was released in March, 2000, & hasn't even had any kind of update since January, 2004.
Your best option would be to use a free Office clone such as LibreOffice or Numbers, part of iWork.

Select all the pages at once in Excel by clicking on the first tab then Ctrl clicking on the last tab. Then print to the Adobe PDF printer and you will get one document with all pages in it.

Yes, I can. But not with Adobe Reader.

Im trying to convert a PDF into an excel document and I keep getting an error message that reads "An error has occurred while trying to access the service". WHat am I doing wrong?

it seems my subscription had expired so I signed up again.. It was still having trouble so I repeated the sign up process again.. Then it worked perfectly.. Unfortunately, I think I just subscribed twice and need to cancel one of them. Ugh. Such a pain when I'm trying to get this project completed. I'll be canceling at least one of the subscriptions in the morning. Adobe is not my favorite company right now. None of this was intuitive. And trying to get help was an absolute waste of an hour.

How do I convert an excel (2008) document to Numbers? When I drag the Excel document onto the Numbers icon I get, "Import error. The file format is invalid"

How can I convert an Excel (2008) document to Numbers. When I drag the Excel document onto the Numbers icon I get, "Import error. The file format is invalid.

That extension identifies the most current Excel file format, a format that can be opened by Numbers '09 (and by Numbers '08).
A check with Numbers '09 shows it capable of opening .xlsx files when right-clicked (and Numbers chose as the application to open, when double-clicked (if Numbers has been set as the default application to open this type of file, or when dragged to the Numbers icon in the dock.
I see two possibilities for Numbers inability to open it and the message you receive:
1. The file is not actually an Excel file, and the sender has added the .xlsx extension to the filename manually.
2. The file is an Excel file, but has somehow been corrupted.
Have you tried opening the file with a different application? The open source Office suites, OpenOffice.org, LibreOffice and NeoOffice can also open .xlsx files. If they're unable to open this one, that would point toward the file itself being faulty. You can download these applications from their rspective websites, linked in the names above. All request a donation to support future development, but only Neo requires one to have been made recently, and that only for the current release (which won't be necessary to open .xlsx files).

How do I get a refund? I have tried to use this converter to change a PDF to a word document or excel document three of four times and it always fails.. I want my money back but don't see any way to communicate with Adobe.

How do I get a refund? I have tried to use this converter to change a PDF to a word document or excel document three of four times and it always fails.. I want my money back but don't see any way to communicate with Adobe. i really just want my money back. Very disappointed. Also disappointed that it is so hard to find a way to communicate with Adobe that I have to resort to asking this question in this forum.

You need to use the CHAT link in support to reach Adobe staff. Be sure you know the product name you are trying to cancel, Adobe have lots of products, several converters etc. I think it is ExportPDF you have, most likely.

Excel document is automatically converting to a word doc and won't open

I Installed Microsoft Excel and Word 2007 onto my laptop. Since the, whenever I create an excel document and save the same, it saves as a Word doc and when trying to open the doc, an error message comes up. Why is the Excel doc automatically saving as a Word doc? How to correct this issue?

Hi judyf73891847,
I don't think you're doing anything wrong. I'm not surprised that ExportPDF is having a hard time converting handwriting. One option is to disable OCR as described in this document: How to disable Optical Character Recognition (O... | Adobe Community. Then, ExportPDF won't try to convert those elements into editable text. The only drawback to that is that you won't be able to edit those items when you open the converted document in Word.

Hi there, I currently subscribe to Adobe Pro Subscription (yearly) and I also subscribe to Adobe PDF pack (monthly). I only require Adobe to read and create PDF documents such as converting word/excel document or a web based document. Can someone tell me if I'm doubling up as I'm not sure of the differences between the products and would like to save a few dollars.

Acrobat Pro can do a lot more than the PDF Pack online service.
Try if you can do everything you need with PDF Pack; otherwise keep Acrobat Pro.

What would be the best Adobe Product option for me if I only need it to be able to convert PDF documents to Excel Format?

Hello, I'm hoping to pick everyone's brain about which Adobe Acrobat Product / License I would need if the only Function I require is the ability to convert PDF documents to Excel format. This would not include Scanned documents.

Only you can decide what is a "best fit".
PDF content export to Excel can be performed by Acrobat XI or either of Adobe's online subscription services "ExportPDF" or "PDF Pack".
Be well...

Can't convert pdf document to excel

I tried to export a pdf document to Excel using the conversion process presented, but that didn't work at all. I then uploaded the document to my workspace but don't see any links that would convert the document there. How does this process work?

Hello,
'''Try Firefox Safe Mode''' to see if the problem goes away. Safe Mode is a troubleshooting mode, which disables most add-ons.
''(If you're not using it, switch to the Default theme.)''
* You can open Firefox 4.0+ in Safe Mode by holding the '''Shift''' key when you open the Firefox desktop or Start menu shortcut.
* Or open the Help menu and click on the '''Restart with Add-ons Disabled...''' menu item while Firefox is running.
''Once you get the pop-up, just select "'Start in Safe Mode"''
'''''If the issue is not present in Firefox Safe Mode''''', your problem is probably caused by an extension, and you need to figure out which one. Please follow the [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]] article for that.
''To exit the Firefox Safe Mode, just close Firefox and wait a few seconds before opening Firefox for normal use again.''
''When you figure out what's causing your issues, please let us know. It might help other users who have the same problem.''
Thank you.
