Creating interactive elements for a PDF using CS5

I created some interactive elements in a CS4 document and ticked 'Interactive elements' in the options box on the PDF General dialog box, and the buttons do what they should when the resulting PDF. But when I try to create a PDF with this file in CS5, the buttons aren't working. Is there another setting I am missing? The Interactive Elements option is set to 'Include appearance'.

You will need to make an Interactive PDF.
Some wise guys at adobe decided to separate PRINT and INTERACTIVE pdf settings.
Choose File>Export and select PDF (interactive)

Interactive Reports for Marketing Campaigns using HANA

Dear Experts,
We are Implementing Interactive Reports for Marketing Campaigns using HANA Hence, I request you all to help with the Config Steps / any documents that help.
Your Help is really appreciated.
Thanks In advance
Satish

David,
There are several drawbacks with the standard functionality that you will encounter:
- SAPconnect only supports HTTP url posting or RFC destination setup (which means you need a third party server program)
- The mail forms do not impose a limitation on the length of messages
- Target groups do not check if the person has a mobile number.
If you look at SMS gateway providers they normally allow use via web service or SMPP. If you plan on doing "bulk" campaigns where you will generate multi-thousand messages a month then you need to use one of these options. SMPP is a binary protocol that is way too complicated for a business application to implement. So web services is your best bet.
If we used mostly standard CRM functionaliy we would do the following for SMS:
- Use the segment builder to handle our target groups
- Use the personalized mail functionality
- Use the open channel exits for segment execution to handle the communication to SMS gateway.
Now keep in mind that for SMS campaigns this is going to be cubersome, and not going to provide all the mobile marketing functionality you need. It still appears that even for CRM 52/2007 that mobile marketing is not really fully addressed in the solution with several major gaps.
We ended up going down a custom route, because the segment builder was not-user friendly and unstable in CRM 40 and the mail form technology did not meet our needs for sending messages and creating template based scenarios. We still make use of the CRM business partner master for the distribution.
If you have any further questions on doing SMS campaigns with CRM, please let me know. This is one area where I have spent some extensive research. If you are looking for SMS gateway providers in the US, I can also provide some names based on our previous research.
Thank you,
Stephen

Created two Elements For Accrual

Hi Genius
When we created Recurring Elements for Accrual we haven't checked the standard check box in the element link, which means it will not occur every month.
The problem is the client ran the payroll for last two months without attaching these two recurring accural elements.
Now I cannot check the standard check box. If it is possible to check the standard check box, do I need to change something in the fast formula.
Please share your ideas..
Thank You

Accrual formulas are not processed in a payroll.
So I'm guessing, you can still go back to a past date and make the link a STandard one.
Try making the link a Standard link in a test environment and see if the Accrual balances are calculated correctly.
If everything is fine, then you can make the changes in Production.
If the above doesn't work, then you should manually adjust the accruals for the 2 months, by adding a new element which adds to the Accrual plan.
From the current month onwards, make the link a standard link(use Update mode on the element link).
Cheers,
VB

Problem in creating new versions for existing DIR using CV01N

I am working in SAP ERP 6.0 EHP 4.0 system.
I have problem in creating new versions for existing DIR using CV01N
I create a DIR version 00 with functional location and mpd cycles. Then when i try to create a new version by copying the contents created from already created document.I change the MPD cycles in the new version and save it.
once when i display the first document created the mpdcycle specified in version 01 is copied to the 00 version.
The document is inconsistent where versioning of document doesnot work properly wrt MPDCYCLE and MP HEADER.
The problem which i found was the document identification guid remains the same for all the document versions getting created.
The same is working fine in SAP ERP6.0 EHP3.0 sytem.
Please someone help me in resolving the above issue.
Regards,
Prasad.B

There is a change in the standard code.The reason for the above problem was because of a missing Enhancemnet point in a standard function module 'CV110_DOC_CREATE_WITH_TEMPLATE'.
IS-ADEC-MPD - Enhancement to copy MPD data
ENHANCEMENT-POINT CV110_DOC_CREATE_WTEMPL_01 SPOTS ES_SAPLCV110.
+*$*$-Start: CV110_DOC_CREATE_WTEMPL_01----------------------------------------------------------$*$*+

Created a custom enhancement point similar to SAP ECC6.0 EHP 3.0 system.
The reason was the buffer was not getting cleared previously.After inserting the above code the DIR's are getting created withot any issues.

Cannot create opportunity lines for an opportunity using Web Services 2.0

When working with Web Services 2.0 API every object is exposed without any child objects, this means that if we want to query/update/create/delete child objects that child object has to be exposed via WSDL.
I searched for the opportunity lines child object (also known as revenue lines) in the available WSDL's in the application and also in the documentation and I can’t find it anywhere.
I also checked the opportunity WSDL and it does not contain any reference to the opportunity lines?

Help creating interactive presentation for iPad using InDesign

Hello All,
So I have some very basic experience using Adobe programs for my personal business solutions. Primarily photoshop. But I just got InDesign CS6 as it was recommend for creating an interactive presentation for an iPad.
Before I get to my main question I'd like to give you the basics on my needs for such presentation. I currently own a residential painting company and we have a printed client manual we use at our sales presentations to cover our services for prospective clients. I would like to create an interactive presentation, document, whatever (is easiest and will provide the best experience) for our sales reps to use on iPad devices. This presentation will ideally be between 20-30 pages long, with a main menu and 4-5 subtopics with page links, video & picture inserts, working web links, GIF's, and anything else that might spark customer interest or be an effective sales tool.
We are trying to integrate everything for use on the ipad for our sales presentation because we can use it as an all in one tool. Specifically for our client manual, schedule, job locations, credit processing, etc... Also, I see a video review on an ipad much more powerful tool than the boring written reviews we have right now.
Anyways, I really have absolutely no idea what I am doing. I have learned Adobe programs from scratch in the past, and I am looking for any beginner advice or resources you guys may have. Maybe some good starting points or examples of presentation templates for ipad use, functionality, etc... Really lost in the fog right now, and just looking for a little beginner guidance.
Any help or advice is grealty appreciated
Thanks
Tim

Tim,
I believe you can get more specific help over here:
http://forums.adobe.com/community/indesign
You may (re)consider the presentation format. A PDF (which may be created from an InDesign document) may an option for identical appearance (requiring sufficient pixel x pixel size of all appliances used. Otherwise, a floating (reflowing) format may be more appropriate. In the latter case, InDesign may be a dead end.

Creating interactive quizzes for use in InDesign CS6 DPS ebooks

Hi
Are there any Adobe products that I can use to create interactive quizzes that I can just drop into InDesign when producing ebook apps using the DPS. We’ve tried creating the quizzes in Adobe Presenter and Captivate, but couldn’t get the output to work in InDesign.
Ideally, I'm looking for a quiz generator that has a choice of question types and a input interface to enter the question details, much like that found in Adobe Presenter.
Any suggestions would be welcome.
Thanks

Neil,
I'm not a Captivate user but I downloaded the trial version, built a simple quiz and published it as per James’s instructions. I unchecked the box so that the timeline isn’t shown during the quiz. Since I’m not really familiar with Captivate, this might seem like a stupid question. Is there a way of not showing the initial screen with the play button and timeline at the bottom, so that the user would just see the first slide of the quiz in the publication? I also see the timeline on the Results slide. Can I turn that off? Or should I be posting this question on the Captivate forum?!
Thanks,
John

Best approach to creating a TOC for product catalog using data merge

What is the best approach for creating a TOC for a product catalog (over 1,000 items) using Data Merge?
The TOC would contain the product Categories.
So for example, Category A items could go from pages 1 - 3, and Category B items would start at pg 4, but if new items were added to Category A, then Category B may start from pg 6.
From the Data Source, there are 5 Data Fields I've chosen to be displayed. If this were a regular digital print document, I could use the Paragraph Style method for creating a TOC, but if I make any one of the Data Fields a certain Paragraph Style and use that for the TOC, it'll populate the TOC with that Data Field for all the items.
Any suggestions?

Peter Spier wrote:
TOC is not interactive in the ID file, though it can be in a PDF that you export (there's a checkbox to create PDF bookmarks). You might want to think about using Cross-references (rather than hyperlinks, I think) to build the TOC. You have to do it manually, but once done it should maintain itself, whereas a TOC is built automatically, but must be regenerated after you edit the doc.
One caveat witih TOCs created from cross-references: Although changing the text of an x-ref source paragraph (for example from "Patatas and tamatas" to "Tomatoes and Potatoes,"and/or when the source paragraph flows to the next or previous page) update automatically or when invoking "Update cross-references," MOVING a cross-reference source paragraph to a location before or after another source paragraph, does not change their sequence in the pseudo-TOC. You'll need to manually move the reference in the pseudo-TOC to the correct position in the sequence of cross-refs. So, put the task of checking the order of x-refs in the pseudo-TOC on your before hand-off check list.

Creating an Element for an XML Document

Assuming I have an XML file
file.xml
<root>
<child1>
<child2>
<child100>
<root>
i do
SAXBuilder parser = new SAXBuilder();
doc = parser.build(file);
root = doc.getRootElement();This returns a root elemnet for the entire tree.Now my question is how do i create a root element for say jus the top 10 children? That is, is there a way i can create a document just reading the first 10 elements from the file tree above so that when i do a getChildren on root I should have only 10 elements in the list.

| 1. How are the attributes of an XML element can be stored to the database
XML SQL Utility (which XSQL uses under the covers) only stores
documents in the canonical format. You'll need to use an XSLT
transformation to transform data into the canonical format
(including transforming attribute values into elements whose
names correspond to the column in which you'd like to store it)
| 2. How can I store a single XML document to multiple database tables?
I outline several techniques for this in my upcoming
O'Reilly book, "Building Oracle XML Applications".
The basic idea is to either:
(1) Use an Object View with an INSTEAD OF INSERT trigger, or
(2) Use a technique that transform the inbound document
into a multi-table insert-format and passes each
relevant part for insert to the XML SQL Utility separately.

Creating unique passwords for a PDF document

I'm going to be selling a PDF eBook on the Internet.
I would like to know if there is a way to create a unique PDF password for each customer
rather than having every customer have the same password that was created in Adobe Pro.
I purchased a $20 eBook that requires you to enter a unique alpha-numeric
password (given only to me) before the Adobe file shows the eBook contents.
I was given a password upon purchasing and when I downloaded and double clicked
on the PDF file, it had the standard message
"this PDF is protected. Please enter a Document Open Password."
They company selling that product must have found a way to create unique passwords
for each customer with their PDF document.
Any help or comments would be appreciated.

George - what I will be selling is a 650-page PDF eBook. Given the amount of content (especially the quality of the content), it's worth protecting it. LockLizard and such products are too high for a startup like mine. They are geared more for the enterprise business level.
Dave Merchant - I right clicked on the PDF eBook I mentioned in my original post that seems to have a unique password for each customer. On the 'general' tab, it says at the bottom:
"Security: This file came from another computer and might be blocked to help protect this computer."
I'm not sure if that tells you anything.
What's interesting is that after I cancelled the order for that $20 eBook product, the password still works - so the company using that password system either does not have the capability to revoke access or they simply forgot to revoke access to the eBook for me personally.
BTW, I found out that e-junkie.com has a PDF stamping option that will stamp each buyer's PDF with their name, email address, and transaction number. That would help. But I would still like to have the customer have to login with a unique password or key code to access the eBook contents. Having tenchology that revokes access to the eBook would also be ideal, but that might be too expensive to implement.
thanks

How to create Support function for internal Class use

I have created a class to find the MoonRise and Set time. There is a java code available and I am translating it to Obj-C.
My problem is that for the calculation there are many support functions which is internally used. When I try to duplicate this as follows
-(double) frac:(double)x {
// returns the fractional part of x as used in minimoon and minisun
double a;
a = x - floor(x);
if (a < 0) a += 1;
return a;
-(void)minimoon:(double)t {
// takes t and returns the geocentric ra and dec in an array mooneq
// claimed good to 5' (angle) in ra and 1' in dec
// tallies with another approximate method and with ICE for a couple of dates
double L0, L, LS, F, D, H, S, N, DL, CB, L_moon, B_moon, V, W, X, Y, Z, RHO;
//var mooneq = new Array;
L0 = frac(0.606433 + 1336.855225 * t); // mean longitude of moon
At this point it gives an error implicit declaration of function frac,
My question is how to create such helper functions which are used internally, actually there are many such functions where functionA call B which calls C.
Thanks
Raj

Here's yet another approach (creating a private category):
@interface MYClass (Private)
- (double)frac:(double)x;
@end
@implementation MYClass
- (void)minimoon:(double)t {
// takes t and returns the geocentric ra and dec in an array mooneq
// claimed good to 5' (angle) in ra and 1' in dec
// tallies with another approximate method and with ICE for a couple of dates
double L0, L, LS, F, D, H, S, N, DL, CB, L_moon, B_moon, V, W, X, Y, Z, RHO;
//var mooneq = new Array;
L0 = [self frac:(0.606433 + 1336.855225 * t)]; // mean longitude of moon
- (double)frac:(double)x
// returns the fractional part of x as used in minimoon and minisun
double a;
a = x - floor(x);
if (a < 0) a += 1;
return a;
@end

I liked the first method as I don't have to change much of the java code.
I like it too. I use that very regularly (though I often use C++/Objective C++), since there is typically a lot of implementation in any class that does not need to be an ObjC instance method. This approach helps to reduce the object's interface to its essentials while keeping maintenance low.
I'll put all the helper functions above the implementation.
Is there a good book/web site where I can get such insight? I know C and Delphi/pascal
Well, Objective-C is a superset of C. If you're porting Java, you'll find protocols (ObjC) similar to interfaces (Java).
*Getting Started*
Apple's version of ObjC is different from others. For the language, Apple's docs are the standard (IMO):
Language:
http://developer.apple.com/documentation/Cocoa/Conceptual/ObjectiveC/ObjC.pdf
If you are comfortable with C, this guide will help learning Objective-C quickly, though it has not been updated for (Apple's) Objective-C 2.0:

There are a few books on the ObjC2 language, but I have not read them (I just read Apple's docs for this).
