Creating a button to print a file in a flash exe menu

What is the actionscript to assign to a button in order to
open a file/document that will be included on the same cd rom as my
flash EXE interface?
Any help would be appreciated.
Not looking for third party solutions just the scripting
required for the flash exe to locate the file from the cdrom and
print to the users printer.
Thanks!
Meg

This is an intersting challenge. The Javascript API certainly has the ability to change image mapping on the 3D objects. I doubt if this can be accomplished strictly through scripting, because Javascript is limited by nature to NOT allow file I/O. This is intentional, to prevent security exposures.
Maybe someone else would know how to load external files? If so, these images could be applied to the 3D models with Javascript.

  • I cannot print pdf files with Adobe flash player installed

    Hello,
    I have just encountered an issue with printing PDF files on my computer. I am running windows 7 64 bit. I just upgraded to the latest Flash player with firefox addon. After I completed the upgrade, I soon realized that I could no longer print pdf files. Whenever I opened a pdf file and attempted to print it, through several different supported pdf programs, the print screen would up becoming unresponsive and I would have to close the pdf program through the task manager. I unistalled the adobe flash player and it's accompanied addon, and I was then able to print pdf files again without any issues. Can you please help me resolve this issue? Is anyone else having similar problems? Thank you in advance.

  • InDesign CS5 or 5.5 interactive pdfs  - can I create a button for printing?

    Hello lovely InDesign experts.
    I am creating an interactive pdf using CS 5.5 and would like to have a button on each page that, when pushed, opens a print window (so the user can print the page, or range of pages, if they want). I know you can do this to the finished pdf in Acrobat but would prefer to keep everything in InDesign if possible.
    Thanking you very much in advance,
    Lisa

    And if you're getting into doing stuff in Acrobat these two links are worth reading, the first here written by Bob himself, the second here a cool new way that has been developed, if you requested they add a print button to the list of what you can do and it's possible they probebly would.

  • Creating a print button to print chart.

    Hi everyone, I created a button to print my module.
    The button works great. It pops up the Print Window and
    prints my module.
    but if I cancel the print dialog without printing, my module
    automatically unloads.... ?
    Is there anyway I can by pass this?
    Thanks!

    Flash Catalyst does not directly support printing. You are going to have to add that functionality via Flash Builder and writing ActionScripting. I have not worked with the printing capabilities in Flex, so there is not a lot I can offer past this in terms of advice.I would suggest browsing the Flex forums for some guidance on how to assemble your state for the printer.
    Good luck!

    Hi Zara,
    Here is a open source project on this topic,may be of help to you.
    http://spprintlist.codeplex.com/
    and Scott Hillier also has a project on list printing(Sandboxed)
    http://sandbox.codeplex.com/
    These code libraries will print the list, however if you want to convert into PDF, then you should try using some third party tools or write your own (http://www.codeproject.com/Articles/8038/A-PDF-Forms-Parser)
    Hope this helps!

  • Print button that prints only certain pages

    I am using Acrobat Pro, and have a large document, the first four page section of which can be a stand alone document.
    I have set up one print button which uses Execute a menu item > File > Print, for users who want to print the whole document.
    I would like to create another button that prints only the first four pages - is this possible?
    Thanks in advance

  • BUTTON FOR PRINTING A RANGE OF PAGES

    I need to create a button that prints only a specific range of pages. So far I´ve been using this script:
    >this.print (false, this.pageNum, this.pageNum);
    >// print a file silently
    >this.print({bUI:false,bSilent:true,bShrinkToFit:true});
    But the button is doing nothing. Any help welcome.
    Thanks

    First you should look at the click event of the print button for the xfa.host method for printing.
    Also you must know, that "this" doesn't give you the Doc object. In Designer 7 you must use "event.target" to get it. As I think
    event.target.print...
    should run.

  • Is there a way to create a button on the front panel that would automatically open the txt file data is being stored to?

    I am saving data read from FieldPoint to a .txt file. Is there a way to create a button on the front panel so that when the user pushes this button it automatically opens the .txt folder in notepad? I want to bypass the user having to find the file in the computer in order to open it.

    Hi jem,
    I suggest that you break this up into three seperate questions and re-post to this list. That way you get more ideas from others that may have better insites than myself.
    Re:the sysexec
    The Sysexec will allow you to execute a dos command. This is the equivalent of going to
    Start>>>Run
    What you should do is find the proper DOS command sysntax that is required to open a text file in notepad or your favorite editor. Once you know what a good DOS command is, you should pass that string to the Sysexec.VI. The Sysexec has an input that allows you to choose if the code waits for the command to complete or if it should just start the program and let it run in the background. Sysexec will open its own window to run the command you speci

  • How to create a button in a interactive document and use the button to launch and external "exe." file.

    I created an interactive document and will export as a swf.  I would like to create a button in the interactive document to launch and external "exe." file. Is this possible.

    You will need to create custom web part editor. Look at the following example. It also have added button and its events. I am sure you can use this sample as base and code your logic.

  • Adobe PDF Printing - no file is created

    Hi there,
    We have Adobe CS6 installed on our network, which includes Adobe Acrobat X Pro.
    Our clients are Windows 7 64-bit.
    We are experiencing a problem when it comes to printing to PDF.  e.g. using notepad or Microsoft Word, when selecting "File >> Print" and "Adobe PDF"
    We are presented with the "Save PDF File As" prompt, and at this point you can see the document appear in the Adobe PDF print queue with the status "Spooling".  However once we've chosen the file name and location, and chosen "Save" no file is created.  The job disappears from the print queue.
    We have tried a number of fixes based on other forum posts, such as choosing the print driver (AdobePDF.inf) again from C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Acrobat 10.0\Acrobat\Xtras\AdobePDF and repairing the Adobe Acrobat X Pro installation.....but to no avail.
    We are able to create PDFs within the Adobe Acrobat X Pro progam without any problems.
    I suspect from what someone else has written, this might have something to do with acrotray.exe but I'm not sure how to diagnose/fix this.
    We would greatly appreciate some further advice!
    Thanks!!

    The print process for PDFs as you have described is to create a PS file and then activate Distiller in the background to complete the process. A necessarily background application for this process is AcroTray that I suspect someone has removed. To check the process at the base level, use these steps:
    1. use print-to-file and save the file someplace you can find
    2. open the file in Distiller (it should be a PS file, but with a PRN extension or type)
    3. You should get a PDF
    If the conversion fails in Distiller, you will get errors on the screen -- typically related to graphics or fonts that you are trying to use or embed. You may find that .log files have already been created when you said you got no PDF. If that is the case, the log-file will let you know what the problem is (if you can figure out what is said -- or post here).
    So there are 2 common problems: 1. that errors occurred and are recorded in the log file or 2. AcroTray is not active.

  • Help, i am trying to print my JPEG file that i created in photoshop at a photo lab but it is coming out like an X-ray. I have printed these files before so i have no idea what i am doing wrong.

    Help, i am trying to print my JPEG file that i created in photoshop at a photo lab but it is coming out like an X-ray. I have printed these files before so i have no idea what i am doing wrong.
    Could it be something i have done in my settings?
    or when i am saving the file to JPEG?

    Basically you're approaching this the wrong way around. What you need is the extreme sections to be quieter, not louder. The problem with moving the lower end of the audio is that you'll move the noise floor too, and get what's generally referred to as a 'pumping' effect. So what you do is to use a compressor to tame the peaks, and leave the lower level sound alone. When you've done that, you amplify (or normalize to a level you can determine) the whole signal. So the noise floor will be higher, but constant and not pumping. 'Match Volume' is a completely different tool for setting the overall levels of different tracks so that they sound approximately the same - it doesn't even begin to do what you want.
    If it's music you are treating, then I'd almost certainly use the multiband compressor, because you get less artefacts with this. You need to experiment with the threshold levels, and almost certainly not use a massive compression ratio - 3:1 or 4:1 should be sufficient (although it's hard to tell without actually hearing the audio). You can tell what it's doing at any given point because the downward meter indicates how hard it's working. In theory you can apply make-up gain with it as well, but personally I leave that until everything's treated and use the 'Normalize' tool to set an absolute max level.

  • How do I create a print button to print a specific range of the document.

    How do I create a print button to print a specific range of the document.  I've found JavaScript to print a specific page, but a range or even multiple ranges.  Form is created in Adobe 9 Pro.  Any help would be truly appreciated! 

    Sure, I'll give it a test.  Its just that I have a 128 page form that not all of it needs to be printed.
    Currently,  I have an index page where I want to set up a print button queues per form, however there are several form scattered throughout the document that make up a specific section, but it does not require printing the entire document.  Does that make sense?
    I did find this JavaScript during my reseach, but have not be able to get it to work.
    var pp = event.target.getPrintParams() ;
    pp.interactive = pp.constants.interactionLevel.full;
    pp.printRange=[[1, 1], [3, 4]];
    event.target.print(pp);

  • I cannot print .jpg files created in PS or Painter 11 on my Canon Pixma MP500 Printer?

    Using SnowLeopaard on my iMac, I cannot print .jpg files created in PS or Corel Painter 11 on my Canon Pixma MP 500. No file is sent to the print que. My iMac prints well with Word, TextEdit, etc. AppleCare says the problem is with the printer even though there was no problem printing with previous Apple OSX.

    Do You use the latest version of the Printer Driver?
    And as You specifically mention jpg, I wonder: Are You able to print other file formats?
    If all else fails You could try saving pdfs and printing from Acrobat.
