Creating geospatial PDFs on a server

Hi,
Does anyone have any experience creating geospatial PDFs on a server, or know of a good method for doing so?  This would be on Apache, using data from a remote instance of GeoServer, in case that's relevant.  There's the PHP PDF library, but I didn't see any geospatial functionality there, unless I'm missing it.  Any ideas?
Much thanks,
Tom

This is the wrong forum to ask this on, since this is about the details of the PDF file format.

    Give the physical path to the filename. You have write

  • How to create in InDesign with "Helios Server" a flattened pdf file?

    Hi,
    anybody know about how to use Helios server to create flattened pdf file?
    some details:
    software: InDesign CS4
    Operating System: Macintosh

    I hope you meant it when you said any and all suggestions would be appreciated. This is kind of for listed bullets, but you seemm well versed that you could play with this to make it work.
    First, you want to set your text and apply some general bullets. You can make a new paragraph style if you’d like to set your indents for personal preference. Off to the side, place your graphic you want to use for the bullet.
    Next, select your bullet text and convert the bullets to text. Now it gets bouncy, but follow slowly and it may work for you.
    Copy one of the general Bullets to the pasteboard. Then, Find/Change, pasting the bullet text character in the Find what. Go back to your document and copy the logo or graphic to your clipboard. Make sure it is formatted to your bullet size and colors, etc...
    Go back to your open Find/Change dialog and select the Change to (special characters for replace) to clipboard contents, formatted. From there, you can select and tweak things such as text wrap.
    Just one FYI - When you try to select all in your text box, the graphics used for the bullets will NOT be selected in the links pallette.

  • Multiple pdf attachments from server folder using SO_DOCUMENT_SEND_API1

    Dears,
    I am trying to build a program able to send an email with multiple pdf attachments.
    The files are stored in a folder in SAP server.
    I am able to generate a pdf file from a spool and sucessfully attach it to the email using:
    CALL FUNCTION 'CONVERT_OTF_2_PDF'
          IMPORTING
            bin_filesize           = v_bin_filesize
          TABLES
            otf                    = job_output_info-otfdata
            doctab_archive         = it_docs
            lines                  = it_lines
          EXCEPTIONS
            err_conv_not_possible  = 1
            err_otf_mc_noendmarker = 2
            OTHERS                 = 3.
        IF sy-subrc = 0.

          ENDLOOP.
          TRANSLATE gd_buffer USING '~ '.
          DO.
            it_mess_att_aux = gd_buffer.
            APPEND it_mess_att_aux.
            SHIFT gd_buffer LEFT BY 255 PLACES.
            IF gd_buffer IS INITIAL.
              EXIT.
            ENDIF.
          ENDDO.
        ENDIF.
    Internal table it_mess_att_aux is the parameter contents_bin of FM SO_DOCUMENT_SEND_API1.
    I have now 2 files on a server folder which I would like to include as well.
    I am reading the content of the pdf files in following way:
    DATA:   gd_buffer                 TYPE string,
          OPEN DATASET lv_fileserver FOR INPUT IN BINARY MODE.
          IF sy-subrc <> 0.
            MESSAGE e257(zmsgsd) WITH lv_fileserver.
          ELSE.
            CLEAR: it_mess_att_aux[], gd_buffer.
            DO.
              READ DATASET lv_fileserver INTO gd_buffer.
              IF sy-subrc <> 0.
                EXIT.
              ENDIF.
              APPEND gd_buffer TO it_mess_att_aux.
            ENDDO.
            APPEND LINES OF it_mess_att_aux TO it_mess_att.
    I do not understand the purpose of the statement:
            TRANSLATE it_lines USING ' ~'.
    in this context. Could anyone explain it?
    All the files are attached to email with the desired name but corrupted and with the wrong size.
    Can anyone help me build the logic to attach a pdf file from server in a email?
    Thank you in advance,

    Is there a way to create a PDF from outlook e-mail that does not embed the attachment? better, is there a way to convert the e-mail with attachement (not embeded) as pdf pages?
    - Problem: I have 1400 e-mails with attachments that need to be converted into pdf and the attachments cannot be embeded.
    System: PC Windows 7 using Acrobat X Prof. - Thank you!

    Hi ,
    There is an option of embedding index for faster search while converting email to a PDF .
    However I am not sure that will serve your purpose or not .
    I would recommend you to get in touch with Microsoft support as well .
    Meanwhile I'll work on it and get back to you in case I get a desired solution .

  • How do I add a functional "submit button" to a pdf form in Adobe Acrobat Pro XI ? I created the pdf form in Adobe Forms Central.

    How do I add a functional "submit button" to a pdf form in Adobe Acrobat Pro XI ? I created the pdf form in Adobe Forms Central. It's for an online Diet Questionnaire. After people complete the form I'd like them to click "SUBMIT" and the completed form will be emailed to me.

    This can be a bit confusing because Acrobat 11 comes with the desktop app that allows you to create simple PDF forms without having a FormsCentral account. Some people find this helpful, but you need to understand that when you generate the PDF form, it is Reader-enabled by Acrobat. In order to edit the form further in Acrobat, you have to create a non-enabled copy of the form. You do this in Acrobat by opening the form and selecting: File > Save a Copy
    and opening the copy. It is not opened automatically.
    You can now add a button and set it up to submit by email, either using a "Submit a form" action or the submitForm JavaScript method. You can set it up to include just the form data or the entire PDF, and will want to use a mailto type URL. Submitting the form to the FormsCentral server has a number of important advantages over email (much more reliable, more secure, etc.), so you might want to consider it.
    If the form needs to be saved with Reader versions prior to 11, then you will need to Reader-enable the document. In Acrobat 11 you do this by selecting: File > Save As Other > Reader Extended PDF > Enable More Tools

  • How can you create a pdf report to attach to an email?

    I have a need to create a PDF report with graphics and signature and somehow attached the PDF document to and email to send out. This is all hopefully done in my APEX application. Has anyone done anything similar?

    I have several projects that use PL/PDF - with the pdf form filling API's - to populate pdf form and then attach the output to a BLOB variable in PL/SQL - which can then be attached to e-mail, displayed to user's browser, and saved into a BLOB column in a table. If you are comfotable with coding PL/SQL packages, this is not difficult to do at all.
    The goodness of PL/PDF is that it is composed of PL/SQL packages with some wrapped Java programs - the output is generated directly from the database. You don't need to deal with the complexity and security concerns of calling an external Java middle tier to return the document. However, if you are not comfortable with PL/SQL coding, this may be a lot of work because the software does not have a report designer like Oracle BI Publisher, which costs more than $90K to run on a 2-CPU Server.
    Thanks.

  • Creating a PDF from a database

    Hi all I hope somebody could help here as I have been around
    and around trying to work this out
    Problem: PDF creation from a database
    I have a database which has all the text information to
    create a PDF.
    All images are from the web and are not stored locally web
    serve on a server
    Goal:
    To create a viewable PDF on the fly from the database when a
    user clicks on a link.
    bring in the picture and relevant information then insert a
    header and footer
    Dose anybody have any php scripts that could achieve the
    final result effort less
    when writing this it just popped into my head , could I call
    a web page into the PDF
    if so how

    No that won`t work. AlivePDF uses its own method of embedding fonts (if I remmeber correct you can only use ttf not otf font formats). AlivePDF is not exactly well documented or much used. Its technics are a little "arcane". It was created by the same Guy whose brainchild was Stage3D so you can imagine how complex it is for us mere mortals. A good start is this little blog .
    I also can see why Adobe (who is his boss) isn`t exactly highly motivated to make AlivePDF too much of a Acrobat Double ;-)

  • Create accessible pdf from html pages dynamically

    Hello,
    I am trying to create a 508 compliant Pdf from a simple HTML page using the HTML to Pdf feature in Livecycle ES4 server. I was able to configure the service to generate tabbed Pdf, but the created Pdf has multiple accessibility issues.
    Some of the issues encountered are:  incorrect tab order,  some links are not tabbable while others are,  link text is being read “Blank”,  some text is skipped while tabbing,  missing alt text for images,  page being rendered in the responsive(mobile) view,  etc.
    I have tried both the available approaches, of 1) providing a URL to create the PDF, and 2) to send the html document as a zipped file, with same results.
    Attached is a sample PDF generated from a simple HTML page I created for demo.
    My questions are:
    Is it possible to generate 508 compliant (accessible) Pdf documents using Html to Pdf service from Pdf Generator? If yes, which settings might I be missing?
    Is there any other service provided by Adobe Livecycle Server that can generate 508 compliant Pdf documents from a 508 compliant HTML page?
    Your help is much appreciated.

    I don't think it's possible to do this using a standard JavaScript script in Acrobat, since the newDoc function doesn't work with URLs.
    The only option I can think of is to use an external automator that will call the Create PDF From Web Page dialog, paste the address from a file, and after the PDF file is created will continue to the next line.
    I might be able to create such a tool for you. If you're interested, contact me by email (click my username for the address) or PM.
