Creating pdf portfolios

I have created a pdf portfolio and want to email it. I want to prohibit the recipient from changing the look of the portfolio

Hi Candace ,
You can protect your PDF quite easily.
Acrobat comes with different options to lock a PDF .
What you can do is ,
Select Tools>Go to Protection and choose the best option that suits your requirement.
You can either encrypt it with a password or choose the Restrict Editing Option .
Stay well .

I'm currently using Adobe Acrobat X to create PDF portfolios for client deliverables. Within the portfolio, there is a "Files" view which can be seen below. I'm interested in knowing if it's possible to bulk import metadata into either the Description field or any user created field via a CSV, spreadsheet, etc. Thanks for any insight which can be given.

How to create PDF Portfolio ?

Hi,
I am developing a plugin for Acrobat X. My plugin have a menu item to create PDF Portfolios.I searched the SDK but was not able to find any API or sample to create a portfolio.
The SDK mentioned that the Navigator API have been removed from Acrobat X SDK.
I came across Acorbat Protfolio SDK which requires to install a package in Flash builder and a plugin in Acrobat X and also, the development of the navigator is done in Flash which is then imported in Acrobat.
I need help to create portfolio using Acrobat Portfolio SDK. Can anyone plaease help me?
Can anyone also, explain how will I import the NAV file in Acrobat and how will I execute this file on click of a menu item?
Thanks

Hi Leonard,
Thanks for the reply.
I searched the SDK and found javascript have collection object for portfolio. I looked into the SDK for adding files in portfolio but couldn't find any information. I searched through net also, and came across a script which combines files from one or more portfolio into a single portfolio.
Is there any way to add files into the porfolio? If yes can you please giude me to achieve this?
What I want to do is that on clicking menu item of my plugin, open a file browser to let user choose files. And once the user has selected the files, javascript will combine/add these files into a portfolio. Is this achievable ?
Thanks

Creating PDF Portfolio in ES2.

Hi ,
I have created DDX file and previewed the same in Assembler Descripter   editor , am able to create PDF portfolio and save it into local system.
The DDX :
<DDX xmlns="http://ns.adobe.com/DDX/1.0/">
<PDF result="Untitled 1">
    <Portfolio>
      <Navigator source="mysrc"/>
      <ColorScheme scheme="pinkScheme"/>
    </Portfolio>
    <PackageFiles>
      <PDF source="sourcePDF1"/>
      <PDF source="sourcePDF2"/>
    </PackageFiles>
</PDF>
<?ddx-source-hint name="mysrc"?>
<?ddx-source-hint name="sourcePDF1"?>
<?ddx-source-hint name="sourcePDF2"?>
</DDX>
Used above DDX file to genarate the PDF Portfolio thru Activity "AssemblerService - Invoke DDX ", I hope I genarated the PDF Portfolio, but i don't know how to   retrive the PDF portfolio from AssemblerResult output Variable.
I got same log files in both cases ....So assuming that Process created PDF Portfolio.
But I dont know how to get the PDF portfolio from AssemblerResult and store into local system.
Please help me to get PDF Portfolio from AssemblerRequest output variable.
Attached AssemblerResult as attachment.
Thanks
Praveen

I've always done it in a two step process (done all in one setValue operation):
1 - assign the resulting documents to a Map[document] object using the xpath:
/process_data/myMap =   /process_data/assemblerResult/object/documents
2 - get the correct response from the map. The map's key name will be the same as is in your DDX's result tag. In your case "Untitled 1"
/process_data/@myDoc = /process_data/myMap[@id="Untitled 1"]
With ES2 you can include the /process_data/@myDoc right in the DDX
<DDX xmlns="http://ns.adobe.com/DDX/1.0/">
<PDF result="process:///process_data/@myDoc">

Using Flash/Actionscript to create PDF Portfolio Navigator

Hi Guys
We've been using Acrobat Pro Extended to create PDF
Portfolio's for a wee while now, and now in order to create a
'fresh look', my boss is wanting to create custom navigators.
As the programmer of the team, I've looked into it and found
out that it involves Actionscripting/Flex. While I'm a decent
enough programmer, Actionscript isnt something I've used before, so
I was wondering if there were any online guides or books I could
buy that
specifically show how to create a customer navigator for a pdf
portfolio.
Any help you can provide will be much appreciated.

I also have the same goal except I am not even a decent
programmer. I am actively looking for a place to download the
working Carosel that is kind of advertised as a capability of
Acrobat. Even if someone was selling it...I just wanted to chime in
for support on the topic.

Acrobate 9 Pro - How to re-create PDF Portfolio?

Online literature says you can "re-create a PDF Portfolio after revising source files, without having to locate and gather the native files again".
How is this done?

I believe you need to open the source file from WITHIN the portfolio, make your changes and save it (the source file) and then save the portfolio again. I've done it this way and it works. There might be others way, but I haven't tried them.

Adobe Acrobat X Pro: Create PDF Portfolio not previewing Word docs

******BUG******
Concise problem statement:
Word documents won't preview on an Adobe PDF Portfolio, while other Office documents (Excel, PowerPoint, etc) will. It only shows a Word icon on the preview and you have to double-click the file to open it on actual word. This is not the way Acrobat is supposed to behave.
NOTE: Adobe Acrobat 10.1.2 (latest version) and Office 2010 Suite w/ SP1 installed.
Steps to reproduce bug:
1. Create a PDF Portfolio
2. Add Word (.doc, .docx) files to the Portfolio
3. Click on Preview and you will see a Word icon instead of a thumbnail preview.
Results:
You will see a word icon
Expected results:
A thumbnail preview of the document like it happens with Excel, PowerPoint, etc...
Can you guys reproduce this error? What do you think?

Here is what I am talking about...
Those files should be previewed and not just display a thumbnail with a Word icon.

Create PDF portfolios - Portfolios not listed under Create menu

Upon purchase of Adobe Acrobat XI Standard, I was able to download PDF Portfolio templates.
Under help file, instructions say to go to Create and select Portfolios.
No Portfolio option is listed in the Create menu.
How can I correct this?

Hi Sue,
Unfortunately, the PDF Portfolios feature is only available in Acrobat Pro. Acrobat Help | Create and customize PDF Portfolios

I have already fixed the problem, TY anyway

Create Folder with DDX in PDF Portfolio or add files to Folder

can I create folders in a PDF file same as we do with the Adobe Acrobat Portfolio using only DDX? I tried using PackageFiles, but had no results.

The Assembler service in LiveCycle ES (8.2) does not provide a way to specify folders within a PDF portfolio.
For more information about PDF portfolio capabilities in LiveCycle 8.2, see Using Assembler to Create PDF Portfolios.

Downloaded free PDF Portfolio, no Create PDF Protfolio option from File Create

Downloaded free PDF Portfolio, instructions say to load via> File, Create, Create PDF Portfolio, there is no option for Create PDF Portfolio in my Acrobat XI

(Actually, I think this question is about Adobe Acrobat, not CreatePDF.)
Do you have Acrobat Standard? If so, I think it is a mistake that you were offered this, as portfolios are a feature of Acrobat Pro. At least, that's what I remember.

PDF Portfolio Templates

The instructions given with this software download don't match the real options available to me "File\Create.......
Instructions:
To Install Your PDF Portfolio
To install a custom layout, select File > Create > PDF Portfolio. In the “Create PDF Portfolio” dialog box, click Import Custom Layout. Navigate to the custom layout file on your computer and select Open. Layout files have a .nav extension. The layout appears in the Portfolio Layouts list, where you can select it. Imported layouts are permanently added to the Custom Layouts section of the Portfolio Layouts panel.
There is no File\Create\Create PDF Portfolio"
how can I overcome this ?

So you don't see this menu in Acrobat Pro X or Acrobat Pro XI?

How do I set up/install my complimentary "PDF Portfolio Templates" zip file?

How do I set up/install my complimentary "PDF Portfolio Templates" zip file?
The Download site says: "Please click the button below and select “save” when prompted to download the files to your computer.* To add your content, simply open Acrobat XI and follow the instructions."
The instructions say:
"To install a custom layout, select File > Create > PDF Portfolio.
In the “Create PDF Portfolio” dialog box, click Import Custom
Layout. Navigate to the custom layout le on your computer
and select Open. Layout les have a .nav extension. e
layout appears in the Portfolio Layouts list, where you can select it.
Imported layouts are permanently added to the Custom
Layouts section of the Portfolio Layouts panel."
However, there is no "File>Create>PDF Portfolio" menu option...

Acrobat Standard can't make Portfolios; you shouldn't have been offered that item when you registered. I suggest you contact Customer Support and ask for your selection to be reset.
