Copy/paste issues with certain files...

    I notice that in some pdf files I get that I can't do a copy/paste.... I think the reason is because its a graphic vs real text (even though it is text that I see) not sure if I have the right terminology here....
In any case I can't c/p....
Also, when I do a word search that doesn't work, I assume it's for the same reason....
Any work around for this, or a way to convert the file to pdf text ?

Not with Reader no.
Adobe Actobat has an OCR function or there are a few other third party applications that are dedicated OCR tools.

Right, I'm sure it's a graphic/image, so there is no tool to convert to text ?

  • A serious issue with excel file read in ODI

    hi gurus,
    Issue with excel file read is that we can read only one file by setting the path from ODBC Data Source Administrator-->System DNS -->Select Work book
    what i want to read the dynamic path(Every time I cant go back and set the Work book to select the excel file..
    So i came up with a solution to write a Vbscript that convert the excel to csv my problem got solved for dynamic paths the script is as follow:
    Set objArgs = WScript.Arguments
    For I = 0 to objArgs.Count - 1
    FullName = objArgs(I)
    FileName = Left(objArgs(I), InstrRev(objArgs(I), ".") )
    Set objExcel = CreateObject("Excel.application")
    set objExcelBook = objExcel.Workbooks.Open(FullName)
    objExcel.application.visible=false
    objExcel.application.displayalerts=false
    objExcelBook.SaveAs FileName & "csv",23
    objExcel.Application.Quit
    objExcel.Quit
    Set objExcel = Nothing
    set objExcelBook = Nothing
    Next
    Now this script convert the xls file to csv with comma seprated values
    e.g in excel sheet if data is ABC XYZ PQR
    csv will come with ABC,XYZ,PQR
    here the delimiter is , i want the delimiter as pipe | who's ascii code is 124
    but if i change 23 with 124 its not working i getting the error cannot save as...
    can anyone tell me that what should be the correct code for pipe
    so that the output is ABC|XYZ|PQR
    AS WE CAN USE THE SCRIPTS IN TOOLS

    I dont have the answer for your question but i have different approach in handling multiple Excel File.
    Step 1. Copy a sample source Excel File and Call it Final.xls .
    Step 2. Map this Final.xls to DSN and in Topology call this Final.xls
    Step 3. Do the Reversing and Map and test the Interface . Once its done.
    Step 4. Create a Package and using a http://odiexperts.com/?p=1426 get the list of all the Excel File
    Step 5 . Using this http://odiexperts.com/?p=273 create a Loop to Read the Excel File name
    Step 6 . Copy using OdiFileCopy to Final.xls and run your interface .
    Step 7. Increment the Loop and copy your next File for Final and run the interface
    Step 8 . Finally you will be able to read all the Excel File .
    Step 9 . Delete the source file [ Optional ]
    Hope this helps.

    I am having issues with Sidebar files not appearing from within InDesign CS5.5. They show up fine from other Adobe applications. Using OS10.6.8.

    I would first of all trash the preference file for InDesign, make sure the application is closed then find the prefs in
    /Users/USER NAME/Library/Preferences/Adobe InDesign and just throw the entire folder away, it will generate a new one after you launch InDesign again.
    Now launch InDesign and see if the problems are resolved.
    If not I would repair your permissions on your hard drive wih disk utility, and if that fails then di-install InDesign and re-install that single application.
    Let me know if any of these suggestions work for you
    I will be checking my email although you might have to wait for a response as I will be taking a microlight flight over the Victoria Falls tomorrow. Yay can hardly wait.

  • Issue with Sender File FCC

    Hi Experts,
    I have an issue with Sender File FCC Adapter. The file being picked is of type TXT and it is tab seperated. The first line contains the field names and from next line onwards we have values for those fields.
    The field names and field values are tab seperated. Even inserting a single letter in some field value manually disrupts the whole setup & alignment of the TXT file and the Sender File CC is unable to pick up the file from the shared folder. If the first file is errorenous and after that a correct TXT file is posted, it fails to pick up the correct file as it is trying to pick the errorenous file first.
    The Error thrown is :
    "Conversion of file content to XML failed at position 0: java.lang.Exception: ERROR converting document line no. 2 according to structure 'ABCD':java.lang.Exception: ERROR in configuration / structure 'ABCD.': More elements in file csv structure than field names specified!"
    I have two questions:
    1. Is there a way to handle such a scenario? For e.g., the errornous TXT file gets picked but throws error in PI.
    2. Is there an alternative that the sender FCC channel picks up the correct files and filter out the errorneous ones ? ?
    Thanks,
    Arkesh

    Hi Arkesh,
    I think you are passing more number of fields than expected. Please check paramters defined and send the data accordingly.
    In the processing parameters tab of sender file adapter, you have an option called Archive faulty source files, below to that you would have option to enter the " Directory for Archiving files with Errors".
    I hope this helps you....
    Thanks,

  • Copy & paste embeded object to file system

    Cross-post at:
    http://stackoverflow.com/questions/27685791/copy-paste-embeded-object-to-file-system
    Background:
    I wrote a large piece of VBA code in an Excel workbook to help handle a lot of repeating jobs. I found it is painful to maintain and modify the code by using the "pool" VBA Editor. Then, I decided to move those VBA code to C# solutions, which I
    suppose I can benefit from the modern editor - Visual Studio.
    Problem:
    Although I don't know too much about VBA, I know even less about C#. Hence I got some problem when I try to "translate" my VBA code to C#, and here is one of them:
    I create a document-level solution for Excel. I need to embed some files (.cab, .exe) into the solution, so when I run a method (e.g. by clicking a button), those files will be copied to the file system, and do some job.
    In VBA, I embedded those files in the Excel workbook, then I can copy the embedded objects to the clipboard by using the following VBA code:
    Sheet1.OLEObjects("obj_cab").COpy
    And then I can paste the object to the file system by using the following VBA code:
    CreateObject("Shell.Application").Namespace("C:\Sample\").Self.InvokeVerb "Paste"
    In the C# solution, I can use the following equivalent method to copy the embedded object to the clipboard:
    Microsoft.Office.Interop.Excel.OLEObject OLEobj = (Microsoft.Office.Interop.Excel.OLEObject)sheet1.OLEObjects("obj_cab");
    OLEobj.Copy();
    Then I stuck here, I don't know how to get this object from clipboard and put it to the file system. The 'CreateObject' method does not exist in C#.
    Anyone can help? Either a better way to embed those files or a working way to paste those objects (files) from clipboard to the file system?
    Thanks a lot!

    Hi FantaC,
    It's possible to save the oleobject to the disk. But it's not very simple. Because when you call the Copy method of OLEObject to clipboard, it's actually not the exact the oleobject file itself, it's actually a wrapper of the file, it means that it has different
    file headers and some other information from the original oleobject file.
    To save oleobject on the disk, you need to analyze the byte array by yourself, this would be a little complicated. You could check the answer in this thread for the code sample:
    https://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/vstudio/en-US/1ab7a178-8021-4c67-a14b-5031a254fd9c/saving-oleobject-content-to-a-file

  • Issues with RAW files from my 7D

    I have Aperture 1.5.6 on my computer and the software updater says that is the current version. I shoot with a 20D and a 7D. I upload my raw files to Aperture and edit them from there and then process for a jpeg. However, every time I upload a raw file from my 7D I get the following message when I click on it to edit it: Unsupported Image format.
    Any words of advice, other than just buy Aperture 3??

    I have Aperture 2.X and had zero issues with RAW files from a 7D, so I think the problem is you are on 1.X. Converting to DNG first was a good suggestion if you don't want to purchase 3.X. Yet another reason to hate proprietary raw image file formats.......

    Hi,
    I can't tell. What I can tell is that the code in the sample you reference for sure doesn't cause this - but it doesn't help you I guess.
    Btw.: Here is a solution that works on all browsers. The solution in the blog (Chris - please forgive me) is a bit awkward to be honest.

  • Sharpening issues with RAW files

    Hi,
    I have downloaded lightroom 5 as a one month trial and have been playing with the program. I am not an experienced user and are wondering if I am doing something wrong, have wrong settings applied or if it is the known sharpening bug that messes with my photos. I know that sharpening and noise reduction includes a bug that does not let you export pictures 1/3 of original size with sharpening/noise intact. However, in my case, this also happens with RAW files. I do not crop or change size/resolution to any of the photos, but the sharpening is still not working. Photos look great in develop mode, but when I click on library mode to export them, all sharpening disappears!
    Is this the same bug previously reportered "only for pictures 1/3 of original size", or do I have some strange settings applied?
    I was loving lightroom 5 up until I noticed this, and now I am reluctant to buy the product...
    I'd be greatful if anyone has any input on this!
    Thanks in advance

    Delete background Apps from memory and then Reset.
    To Delete background Apps, double click Home button, in the bar at bottom, hold down on an App Icon until the minus sign appears, tap all the minus signs, until all background Apps are cleared from memory. Then Reset, hold both Home and Power buttons until the iPhone begins to restart itself, ignor the 'slide to power off' let the iPhone restart itself.

  • Issues with .mov files from Canon 5d mk3 - since Mavericks upgrade...

    Hello,
    Ever since I upgraded my OS to Mavericks, Premier Pro has been refusing to 'see' .mov files in my projects. In the timeline the bits of .mov footage are appearing as red blocks, in the preview pane you get 'Awaiting media' then the red block of doom.
    So currently I'm having to convert footage from .mov to mp4v - then it seems to be OK. The upgrading to Mavericks could be a coincidence ... but before that I had no issues with PP.
    This is my system:
    Processor  2.8 GHz Intel Core i5
    OS X 10.9.1 (13B42)
    Graphics  ATI Radeon HD 5750 1024 MB
    Memory  12 GB 1333 MHz DDR3
    I would love some help/ideas on this - it's doing my head in having to convert .mov files, and having to back convert stuff in my existing projects ... please help!

  • Weird Copy Paste Issue

    Having a strange issue with Copy & Paste on my Windows 8.1 install. Whenever I copy a link, text or anything even a picture.. usually when I go to paste it.. either by keyboard shortcut (ctrl + V) or right clicking.. nothing is pasted. In the right
    click menu, Paste is there and not grayed out. It is very frustrating, as I always have to go back and copy it again and try again. Most of the time it works the second time sometimes it will not. Not sure even how to go about troubleshooting this.  Anyone
    else ever experience this issue? When copying and pasting from within the same app it doesn't happen. But more so when I am on a site.. I copy the address.. by the time I switch to Outlook and open a new message and paste, it's lost. 
    Thank you
    edit: trying to move this into th Windows 8.1 forum, but can't find out how, I apologize.
    update: seems to be when copying is from a browser. Chrome, IE etc...

  • Issue with Deduplicated files and Mac OSX 10.9.2

    Running a Windows 2012 R2 DFS with Deduplication enabled on the storage drives.  Both Macs and PCs regularly interact with the system with no issues.
    However with Apple's rollout of 10.9.2 SMB2 'fix' users are no longer able to correctly interact with any files on the file server with the "SparseFile" attribute, which appears to be from the deduplication of the file.
    When the Macs attempted to download a "sparsed" file they get an error along the lines of "you do not have permissions to copy this file".  This is annoying enough, but the biggest head ache is when a user tries to
    copy a folder that has sparced files in it, the folder and its files are seemingly copied but the Mac does not copy the sparced files... and give no indication to the user that it ran into an error... Finder just closes like
    the operation was completely successful.
    Even more annoyingly the user can open the file directly from the server, and work on the file with seemingly no issues, but when they save the file the changes are often not saved, and the user gets NO feedback from the application or OS.
    It seems the Macs are seeing the file as having a NULL file size and they skip the file when they download it.  This was not the case in 10.9.1 or any other version of any other OS we have tested.  We have entered this as a bug to Apple
    and hope they will fix it... mostly just posting this for the next admin who is pulling his hair out trying to figure this out.
    For a work around you can force the Apple 10.9.2 system to use SMB1 by using the CIFS protocol to connect to the server instead of normal SMB... which is not ideal but will work for now.

    Hi,
