Creating popup menus using bookmarks in acrobat pdf

Hi All,
I have a requirment to create a button called "Index" in a pdf.
When I click on that button it should show the popup menu and if I click any of the menuitem in that, it should take me to that particular page. I saw some of the interactive pdf's available on the web and they have this facility. I tried to incorporate this into my pdf, it shows the popup menu item correctly but not taking me to that particular page and throughs an error message.
itemIndex is not defined
3:AcroForm:Index:Annot1:MouseUp:Action1
Below is the code I tried for your reference.
My question: Is there any way to populate this popup menu with the action to go to particular page, from the available bookmarks of a pdf?
Please help me. Thanks in advance.
var itemInedex = app.popUpMenu("Executive summary", "Why backups?", "Defining the data status (consistency)", "New disk technologies", "Understanding disaster recovery and restart and recovery", "Drawbacks with backups", "Backup in mainframe", "Schematic presentation", "For more information")
switch (itemIndex) {
case "Executive summary":
this.pageNum = 0
break
case "Why backups?":
this.pageNum = 3
break
case "Defining the data status (consistency)":
this.pageNum = 4
break
case "New disk technologies":
this.pageNum = 5
break
case "Understanding disaster recovery and restart and recovery":
this.pageNum = 6
break
case "Drawbacks with backups":
this.pageNum = 7
break
case "Backup in mainframe":
this.pageNum = 8
break
case "Schematic presentation":
this.pageNum = 9
break
case "For more information":
this.pageNum = 10
break

Hi
Thanks a lot. I did not notice that .
Is there anyway to populate this popup menu item from the bookmark list? I did write these bookmarks and page numbers manually.

Problem in showing dynamically created popup menus in MacOs.

I have problem with dynamically popup menus. When the menu item is selected, below method is calling:
public JPopupMenu getPopupMenu(){
JPopupMenu r = super.getPopupMenu(); // My class extends JMenu.
r.removeAll();
String[] remoteEngines = SimulationManager.getRemoteEngines();
try {
for (int i = 0; i < remoteEngines.length; i++) {
JMenuItem item = new JMenuItem(remoteEngines);
item.addActionListener(this);
r.add(item);
} catch (Exception ex) {}
return r;
On windows and linux I get menu populated by servers' names, but under MacOS popup menus don�t appear.
I have MacOs 10.4 and Java 1.5.0.5

Uncheck "Web provider in same cookie domain as the portal" and also for the User/Session Information, choose either "Always" or "Once per user session" NOT "never".

Bookmarks created for elements not selected in Acrobat PDF Maker

I recently upgraded to Windows (7 64-bit) and Word 2007 (SP2 MSO). I am using Acrobat 9 Pro (9.3.3) to convert a Word document to PDF. The bookmarks created in the PDF document are for all Word Heading styles (H1, H2, H3, H4, H5). However, on the Bookmarks tab of the Adobe PDF Maker, I only selected 3 heading styles (H1, H2, H3) for bookmarks. I did not have this problem using Word 2003 and Acrobat Pro 9.
I searched this forum and I have found reports of similar issues, but no resolution. I also found a thread back in 2009 where a response suggested this is a bug and provided a link to report it. I have not found any information confirming this is a known issue and if there is a resolution in the works.
Are there settings in MS Word I need to consider? I've looked at all of the conversion settings in Adobe PDF Maker and nothing seems obvious.
Please help!

Can you print to the Adobe PDF printer? Does the PDF Maker menu show up in WORD or other OFFICE product?

Creating template file using ireport while generating PDF(jasperreports)

thanks.

Hi,
since 10.1.3 does not have templates I am wondering what you were attempting to do? It appears as if the Faces libraries are not available for the project, so you may want to give us a steb-by-step instruction of how to reproduce the error

I can create them in Numbers but not in the Tables in Pages. Also am not able to copy/paste a table w/ a popup menu from Numbers to Pages ('09)

check box, popup menu, slider, stepper, links between tables
Here is a list of some features unavailable in Pages and Keynote.
Hurry up:
_Go to "Provide Pages Feedback" in the "Pages" menu_, describe what you wish.
Then, cross your fingers, and wait _at least_ for iWork'10

Creating TOC Bookmarks in a PDF created from Microsoft Word

Does anyone know how to modify PDF creation settings so that bookmarks are automatically set from the Table of Contents in the PDF version of a Microsoft Word document? This is possible in Windows using word and Acrobat Pro. But it's not automatic in the OSX-resident PDF creator and I can't find any way to modify preferences. I'm using Word 2004 (11.3.5) for Mac. Thanks!
iMac 21" Intel Mac OS X (10.4.10)

I am using Acrobat XI Pro on PC.
Of course, I have done all the steps you mention, but I wanted someone to confirm me if these setting values are correct in order to obtain the best results. I repeat the paragraph of my previous discussion that I want to clarify, just in case some of you can help me, mainly about optimization
I digitalized the document from the scanner. This scanner is installed in the net, so I personalized the settings in Acrobat and I chose memory mode instead of native mode.
Mode color: black on white
Resolution: 600 ppp
As you say in your mail, I understand I should choose ClearScan OCR not searchable just at this moment.
Well, and what about the options of optimization?, JBIG2 (without lost)?, 4 CCITT?
And filters?, I have: activated, low, activated, medium
Are these values congruous or compatible?
Thank you

FM10/Acrobat X 10-use named destinations for PDF linking

My company wants our documentation to be accessible from a web page. No problem there. But they want to provide users with links that open the PDF files to a specific section.
My books are in FM10. I created hypertext named destinations (example hyperlink syntax: newlink alarm) at the points where they want to open the PDF. I then saved the book to PDF, with the Create Named Destinations for All Paragraphs check box selected.
We are now trying to build a link from the web page to open the PDF at the named destination. Here is some info from the web developer on his syntax:
These zoom but do not position you to the named destination:
     <a href="Documentation/IO.OS 2.1.3 Technical Overview.pdf#nameddest=alarm&zoom=40">Tech Doc</a>
     <a href="Documentation/IO.OS 2.1.3 Technical Overview.pdf#alarm&zoom=40">Tech Doc</a>
This positions to the indicated page and zooms:
     <a href="Documentation/IO.OS 2.1.3 Technical Overview.pdf#page=20&zoom=40">Tech Doc</a>
What are we doing wrong? I've been searching the forums and community help and we've tried all the syntax examples we can find. Thanks so much for any help you can provide!

Hi Kim,
Our team recently found a way to put custom named destinations in our FrameMaker files that can be used for linking to specific places in the PDF output (with no strange alphanumeric codes added to the named destinations).
The named destinations are anchored in FM so they stay with whatever heading/text/graphic/etc they are "attached" to, even as content is added to/removed from the FM files.
Will the following work as part of the solution you're looking for? (We're also using FM10 and Acrobat X.)
In FM, insert a new text frame object.
Type the following code in the text frame: [/Dest /Help123/Dest pdfmark
where “Help123” is the name that will appear in the PDF for this named destination. This is name you would use in your hyperlinks. Our programmers use this name for the context-sensitive help links in the user interface.
Right-click on the text frame and select Object Properties. Click to select the PostScript Code check box, then click the Set button.
NOTE: Once the PostScript Code check box is selected, the text in the text frame cannot be edited. To edit the text in the text frame, you have to first turn off the PostScript Code option, edit the text, and then turn the PostScript Code option back on.
Select the text frame object, then cut and paste to create a new instance of it. This places the text frame inside an anchored frame.
You can now “attach” the anchored frame to whatever heading/figure/text/etc the named destination should link to.
Here's the catch. To get the named destination in the PDF output, you can’t use the “Save as PDF” command in FM – you must print to PDF instead:
In the FM file, click File >> Print Setup.
Select Adobe PDF in the Name drop-down list, then click the Properties button.
Deselect the Rely on system fonts only; do not use document fonts check box, then click OK.
Click OK.
Click File >> Print.
Select the Generate Acrobat Data check box.
Click the PDF Setup button to define bookmark links, print quality, etc, then click the Set button when done.
Click the Print button.
The generated PDF file should contain all the bookmarks you’ve defined as well as all the named destinations you added (with the exact names you specified).
Hope that helps. Thanks, and good luck,
Jason

Embedding several PDF files into one using bookmarks

Hello, everyone.
My concern is about embedding some PDF files wherein there are bookmarks for each file to navigate through their chapters, sections, etc. using any PDF Viewer.
I want to embed these PDF files into an overall document which creates bookmarks to navigate through the embedded PDF files preserving the internal bookmarks of every PDF file.
Minimal bookmarks example:
File A
File B
Chapter 1
Section 1Figure of file A
Section 2
Prologue
Chapter 1
Section 1Figure of file B
Section 2
Prologue
Overall document
File A
Chapter 1
Section 1Figure of file A
Section 2
Prologue
File B
Chapter 1
Section 1Figure of file B
Section 2
Prologue
Which I am almost sure it can be done with Adobe® Acrobat but I do not know how to do it and I still do not manage to get it by myself. I would not prefer to do it by joining PDF files without bookmarks and recreate them because I have files with more than one hundred sections and chapters, it would be really troublesome besides I have not enough time to devote on it.
Thank you in advance to everyone.

Use Acrobat's Combine files feature (available in Acrobat XI Standard and Pro).
Be well...

Hi Recardo,
Thanks for response.
Earlier we faced issue of 'NPE', while adding markups and it was show stopper for that we had to give this fix and now few markups are missing.
With the reference to the SR, SR 3-10406750311 : During creating Annotation dimensions getting Exception in thread "AWT-EventQueue-0" java.lang.NullP we were asked to implement Listeners.
Please let us know if we can have any further fix to our current code.
Current SR:
SR 3-10549887951 : Annotation are printing randomly on 2nd page of PDF using Autovue 20.2.3 version
We have uploaded Markups and log files that have requested by Michel.
Thanks

Some of the times when I print a document from the internet using my Adobe Acrobat 8 Pro printer, the letters appear in the PDF as symbols, How do I correct the problem?

On many documents that I try and print from the internet such as receipts, conformations, etc, using my Adobe Acrobat 8 Professional printer, the PDF shows some if not all the letters as symbols. I think it might be font issue, but do not know how to fix the problem. Any suggestions.
On another issue, can a Tiff file of my signature be inserted in a PDF?

Hello,
For 1st issue please follow the steps in given article:
Missing or Garbled Text Printing from IE9 to Adobe PDF Printer
For 2nd issue:
You can create a signature appearance:
For example, you can include your scanned signature.
1 (Optional) Save the desired image on a page by itself, and convert the page to PDF.
2 Choose Edit > Preferences (Windows) or Acrobat (Mac OS) > Preferences, and select Security.
3 Click New, and type a title.
4 (Optional) Select Imported Graphic, click File, and select the desired file.
5 Specify options as desired.

I am using CC adobe Acrobat to combine multiple pdfs and add page numbers. Mac users can no longer read the page numbers but pc users can.

I am using CC adobe Acrobat to combine multiple pdfs and add page numbers. As of about 2 weeks ago the mac users can no longer read the page numbers they get a font error message and see only -- where the page information should be. The pc users do not have this same problem. When I replace our regular font (URW Grotesk) with a system font (Verdana) everyone is able to read the page numbers. This is a new issues, I have been creating these documents in the same way for years without a problem. I have been on hold and on and off calls for the last two hours, I keep getting hung up on once I find someone in adobe support to talk to!

Hi KnoopL,
Are the Mac users using Preview to view the pdfs or Adobe Reader?

Unable to save a PDF created from a secure webpage in Acrobat X

Hi,
Our Acrobat X standard won't 'save' or 'save as' PDFs created from a password secured website. Same symptom on two machines here. Other PDFs work fine.
The workflow we're using is opening acrobat, selecting create pdf from website, and then specifying a website with an https address and entering a username and password to access the site. This generates a pdf which looks great, all the links work etc... but when you click 'save as,' absolutely nothing happens. You're left just looking at your PDF with no save window or anything opening.
This gets done every day in the office here. I suspect the latest update may have caused the issue?

Hi Bill@VT,
Thanks for your reply!
I checked document properties and security is off. I've also unticked "Enhanced Security" under Security (Enhanced) in the Edit > Preferences menu.
This issue is only affecting our acrobat 10 and acrobat 11 users. I still have a couple acrobat 9 users here and they're unaffected.
The Save As button is not greyed out -- it's available but clicking on it just closes the file menu and does not open the save as dialog box.

Creating Bookmarks in a PDF Doc

Hi,
I have a created a couple of ibots that create PDF documents - does anyone know how to have bookmarks created in the PDF file ?
In a previous BI tool we used when a PDF was created it created a tree of bookmark links on the left side.
Any idea's appreciated.
Thanks,
Patricia

I don't think this is possible with Answers reports. But BI Publisher does support PDF bookmarks, have a look at this:
