Creating Dynamic PDF file

Hi ,
I need to create PDF file in my JSP/servlet application. After we do a
database search , we are supposed to create a PDF file using the search
result , so that user can print it .
I understand Apache-cocoon has similar XML API's. But when I looked into
cocoon's document I found it needs servlet2.x for servlet operation. I
am using weblogic4.51 which comes with servlet1.x .
Any suggestion/ideas ?
Thanks

"FOP is the world's first print formatter driven by XSL formatting objects.
It is a Java application that reads a formatting object tree and then turns
it into a PDF document. The formatting object tree, can be in the form of an
XML document (output by an XSLT engine like XT or Xalan) or can be passed in
memory as a DOM Document or (in the case of XT) SAX events."

  • Is there an ADOBE plugin for MS Project 2010 to create Dynamic PDF files?

    I wonder if there exist any ADOBE plugin for MS Project 2010 to create Dynamic PDF files?

    We are not going to use form fields. An employee is going to create large projects in MS Project 2010 and want to share his projects with other employees. So the need is just a viewer. So I guess we need to check out all the third part MS Project Viewers which is out there. Thanks for your answers guys!

    I posted a link in this thread to a lib that lets you create PDFs from an app. They have a Java version. I have not used it but I know someone who used it with Microsoft ASP and they liked it.

  • How to create a pdf-file dynamically

    Hi all,
    does anybody have a tutorial or self-made code, in which is illustrated, how to dynamically create a pdf-file.
    I am getting some information like this: "Line one has a textfield and an input-field", etc. These informations have to be translated as a pdf-file by myself.
    I read, that a pdf-file needs a xdp and the data as an inputstream. Is there anybody who can explain this issue?
    I think, that there are a lot of people, who are interested in this problem.
    Thank you for your help.
    Kind regards, Patrick.

  • Flatten Dynamic pdf Files

    Hi,
    I have a dynamic pdf file where users complete text fields, drop down lists and image fields. I also have lock all fields button script that I found in this forum to lock all form fields once user completes it. I was wondering is there a way to save or produce a flat static pdf file in the end? Sometime the dynamic form can increase in size due to the size of image inside the image field. So is there a way to flatten all its contents in the end and produce a smaller copy of that file? This way any user even with old version of adobe reader can open it  since its no longer a dynamic form.
    I know sometimes I can do it by printing it as an "adobe pdf" file but it does not allow me when have the permissions set-up. I dont want to give full access too. What permissions do I need to change to enable this? Is there another way to flatten a dynamic file in the end? Has anyone done this?

    Thanks radzmar...sorry it took me awhile to get back to you.
    This is were I have a problem. Since these LC forms are password protected with a permission pwd to prevent the form from being edited, I am unable to print this form to PDF. It gives out the following message:
    %%[ ProductName: Distiller ]%%
    This PostScript file was created from an encrypted PDF file.
    Redistilling encrypted PDF is not permitted.
    %%[ Flushing: rest of job (to end-of-file) will be ignored ]%%
    %%[ Warning: PostScript error. No PDF file produced. ] %%
    I am guessing that above message is displayed since the document is restricted from being changed. So is there a way to allow a pdf printing with the permission password enabled?
    Alternatively, I thought another way to flatten pdfs might be to save the pdf file as jpeg image or any image file. But that doesn't work when the permission pwd is enabled as well since it shows the message "Insufficient permissions for image extraction". So whats the solution in this case? what are my options to flatten the pdf files in the end when the permission password is enabled?

  • How can I create multiple PDF files from multiple InDesign files?

    I have 144 InDesign files that I need to create a PDF file for each. I do not want to open each InDesign file to create the PDF's. Acrobat Batch create won't open the InDesign files. Is there another way?

    Only InDesign can do this. You may want to look at InDesign automation.

  • Is there any way to create 3D PDF file without having the model tree ?

    3D communication is good but sometime we don't want the receiver to be able to study every components in model.
    or any way to make the receiver cannot use model tree and measurement tool ????
    Thank you very much

    You can remove the assembly tree by doing a roundtrip in 3D Toolkit, here's how:
    - start Acrobat 3D
    - drag & drop a CAD file
    - click on 3D Annot to activate
    - right-click on 3D
    - select 'Edit in 3D Toolkit'
    - 3D Toolkit launches
    - click in 'Scene Tree' panel

    - select 'File->Exit'

  • How to create a pdf file from multiple images ?

    Dear All,
    I want to create a SINGLE page pdf file from two or more page size images that are combined to make a single page pdf. Again, this question is on pdfs that are made out of several, atleast  two color images and a black-and-white mask for one of them.
    I have such pdf files from an unknown source (the producer is edited out) whereby there are three tiff images, obtained using the well known pdfimages extractor.
    When I want to make a pdf out of tiff or png or other image formats, I right click and tell Adobe Acrobat to make a pdf.
    However, I dont know how I can give a command to select say,  three tif images and specify which is the mask for which and then join  them in a way that I get the pdf from the composite of the two color images and a mask for one of them.
    Please help me out.
    I am a little familiar with the pdf structure skeleton and when necessary, fixed xref tables in one of my favorite editors. A few years ago, I also wrote a bunch of javascripts to make some annotations and needed some automation and used some itext type libraries. However, I need your help in this problem as I am now rusty and forgot some of what I studied to solve my earlier problems. This is a new problem for me. Gentle hints from you would be very nice to help me in this problem. Please specify if necessary what manual and pages to read. in the pdfspec.

    I would gladly mention that I am working on windows platform, preferably XP.
    I can also work on linux for free products that come with it.

    But adding other products, for the help of an adobe products user,
    even if it outside adobe, shall add greater prestige to your company
    and give impression of user-centeredness.

    Well, just add the few pdf stanzas since you are proficient on it and
    I am presently a little rusty as I mentioned. Just asking a little
    extra yard, not even to go an extra mile.

    Well, ascii format or uncompressed format that is human readable. I
    know its a binary file, but human readable ascii version of it.
    I hope you can give me some stanza and various other approaches
    possible so I can select or combine things for myself. I see only a
    miniscule number of posts claiming to have written masks in this forum
    and then with no details.

  • Using Acrobat X and creating a PDF File from EXCEL 2010, I notice that the Pagination restarts at 1 for each Worksheet included in the PDF.

    I use Acrobat X Standard and created a PDF file from two or more worksheets using EXCEL 2010.
    The resulting PDF file restarts the PAGE # (In header/footer settings of Excel) at 1 for each worksheet.
    However, a colleague of mine who has Acrobat X Pro version, using EXCEL 2010 and same exact file does the same task, he gets a file that starts at page 1 and second worksheet continues the page # from the last page of the First worksheet.
    We both are using the ACROBAT menu (not the print to Adobe printer) to create the file so that we can get Bookmarks included in the resulting file for each worksheet.
    We cannot figure out any option in Acrobat's preferences that controls the pagination on either of these versions of Acrobat.
    So is this just a feature that works one way in Standard version and another way in the Pro version, and the user has no control over it?

    This is so sad. I read your comments and I said, "Huh?" Haha!
    I tried the indexed color option and it did make the final file smaller. Around 600KB. But there's probably another way to make it even smaller like the gazillion-paged pdf file that I mentioned that was only about 300KB.
    And by saying a layout program, does that mean like Adobe InDesign? Does that mean that I should just make my graphics in Photoshop and then import using another program and finish the file there?
    What other layout programs can I use?
    Thank you so much!

  • Installed Mac OS X v.10.6.7, and now we cannot create a PDF file

    Installed Mac OS X v.10.6.7, and now we cannot create a PDF file using Adobe Acrobat Professional.  This has been done on two computers, one an iMac and the other a MacBook Pro.  Assistance greatly appreciated.

    Yes, Adobe Acrobat X Pro is the same thing as Acrobat X Pro.
    Print to PDF is probably the most reliable way to create a PDF file.
    File > Create > PDF from File
    is shaky.  It works with some file types but not with others.
    Another issue is creating a multi-page PDF from a scanner.  If you neglect to check the box "Prompt for scanning more pages" and, instead, simply try to add a second page, the application crashes.
