Creating PS and EPS files on the fly

Is there any way to get OSX to have a virtual spooler that when you drop a file on it, it will create a PS or EPS file. You could do this in OS9, but i cant seem to do it in Tiger
Thanks
Stuart

I have been wondering the same thing. I use LATEX
and have always made my figures in Powerpoint
for presentations and then need to transfer them
to LATEX in eps format.
OS8-9 would let you write an EPS file when you printed.
I currently have to transfer to Illustrator which can
be tedious.
The new OS seem to only write PS files only after
PDF compression which is lossy and still requires
conversion to EPS.

  • Can we create a XDP file on the fly

    Hi All,
    I am new to Live Cycle.
    I want to know if we can create an XDP file on the fly and immediately using this XDP file can form server create a PDF?
    Need this info urgently..
    Thanks in advance.

    There are several ways to do this. The third chapter in the
    cookbook is a good place to start.
    All things in ActionScript are based on objects. Constructing
    them with the data needed for the ui information you will need and
    then binding that data to your dashboard objects is basically what
    you are going to be doing.
    For me it makes the most sence to have an idea of what
    different types of objects you will be creating and create some
    extended components for those objects. Then when you recieve your
    data, binary or xml, you can digest the configuration settings from
    the layout and populate the constructor for each of your
    components.
    It sounds like you need to organize your layout structure in
    a heirarchy and from that you can walk each branch and create each
    set of things as you parse your data.
    Without a bit more information as to what you are
    specifically doing that is about as far as I can go minus adding in
    some code along some line that I think might work.
    Hope that helps some.

    This is right provided you have installed the webserver & app server

  • How do I port my Windows Word, Excel, and Powerpoint files to the MAC?  What software is needed on the MAC to use them?  Thanks.

    How do I port my Windows Word, Excel, and Powerpoint files to the MAC?  What software is needed on the MAC to use them?  Thanks.

    You can certainly use iWork, though I hesitate to recommend it to a seasoned Windows user simply because it would add another level of the unfamiliar with which you would have to gain familiarity. The iWork applications are certainly very competent and in most respects both easy to use and surprisingly powerful. They are not 100% compatible however, though that typically manifests itself in document formatting issues rather than anything more significant.
    I have never attempted to import emails from a Windows system into MacOS - other than in Outlook connected to an Exchange server, thus not really an issue at all. I doubt that the Mail app in MacOS can import directly, but of course you could always set the account(s) up on the Mac and then forward emails you want to keep from the PC. Not elegant, but it works. Virtually any Windows document or file, whichever application created it, can be opened or converted for use on a Mac, and using both systems on my desk each day I rarely see any issues switching stuff from one machine to the other. You may stumble over one or two issues, but likely not significant.
    In switching platforms there will be some inevitable issues, not so much with being able to import your stuff because there's usually a workaround or a utility that can help, but just with getting familiar with the platform and the differences between Windows and MacOS that can obscure their similarities. From time to time the support community here hears from a user who has found the migration very problematic and regrets it, but for the most part the phrase 'I should have done this years ago...' is rather more prevalent!

    --Quick Guide for flashing BIOS, provided by MSI--
    1. Create a MS-DOS boot diskette, then copy the the .exe and the bios file to the floppy disk. Both of these files can be found in the package you downloaded.
    2. Press "Delete" and go to BIOS setup while computer bootup.
    Check BIOS advanced features and see if BIOS flash write control is enabled
    (This option must be enabled. If you can not find this setting, it means the BIOS can be
    flashed.)
    3. Boot from MS-DOS boot diskette and get a:\> prompt.
    4. Type "", then press ENTER
    5. The flash program will then ask "Do you want to save BIOS?", please press "N" for no. The when you see Press 'Y' to program or 'N' to Exit, please press "Y" to continue.
    6. After flashing complete, remove floppy and reset the system .
    7. Press DELETE or F1 when prompted at first reboot after flashing.
    8. Load BIOS optimized defaults, then save settings and exits.
    Drivers & Needed Files:
    (Note: All these drivers are for Windows XP.)
    Leaked Nvidia nForce3 Chipset Drivers Version 4.40
    (Please use at your own risk, these are LEAKED drivers. Password for the .zip file is "ocworkbench rules". Also, you will need to rename the WinXP_2K folder in IDE to either WinXP or Win2K else the installer doesn't pick it up.) Thanks for the link Wonkanoby!
    *NEW* Leaked Nvidia nForce3 Chipset Drivers Version 5.03
    More leaked drivers? Seems some parts of the drivers are older and some are newer.
    1. Windows XP Service Pack 1A (Web Install) -or- Windows XP Service Pack 1A (Full Install)
    2. Microsoft DirectX 9.0b (Web Install) -or- Microsoft DirectX 9.0b (Full Install)
    3. Nvidia nForce3 Chipset Drivers Version 4.24
    4. AMD Athlon 64 Processor Driver Version 1.1.0.14
    5. Nvidia Video Card Driver Version 56.72 -or- Omega Nvidia Video Card Driver Version v1.5303
    (The Omega drivers are third party drivers optimized for gaming, most prefer these over the standard Nvidia drivers.)
    5. ATI Video Card Driver Version 4.7 -or- Omega ATI Video Card Driver Version 2.5.51
    (The Omega drivers are third party drivers optimized for gaming, most prefer these over the standard ATI drivers.)
    6. Onboard Sound Driver (Realtek AC'97 Audio Codec) Version A3.61
    It is HIGHLY reccomended that you install the drivers/needed files in the order listed above. Please note that there are two #5's because you either install one or the other depending on your video card, do not install both of them.
    You will come across a problem here though. You can't install the chipset drivers without installing the Windows service pack and DirectX first, but the Windows service pack and DirectX installs need the internet to download files and you won't have working internet until you install the chipset drivers. Here's what I did to get around this. Instead of downloading the web install versions of Windows service pack and DirectX, download the full version and and put them along with all the other drivers on a backup hard drive or burn them to a CD, this way you will have all the drivers you need when it's time to install them and none of them will require the internet to download files.
    Another note when installing drivers. Apparently the Nvidia chipset drivers also come with drivers for the onboard sound, but people seem to agree that the Realtek onboard sound drivers are better. When you are installing the Nvidia chipset drivers, just be sure to uncheck the box for sound drivers when it asks you which drivers you would like to install. Now you can safely install the Realtek drivers without any chance of conflicting sound drivers. Thanks for the tip Wonkanoby!

    oh.  IIRC the installer just says USB 2.0 will be fully functional after SP1 is installed.  So after you install SP1 you go into device manager and u click update driver and it will auto search and update the driver.
    Simplicity-wise, i guess its pretty much equal.  It might take less preparation to just copy DX9 full onto a CD and install that first, then nforce driver, then right away you have yoru internet connection.
    but i dunno.. i guess i will try it your way this time when my RMA"d board comes.
    i will be fomratting and doing a fresh install later on today and will let you know if i come across any problems

    ASM is reliable but a smart DBA is very careful. If ASM is doing mirroring this is like RAID doing mirroring. What happens if you accidentally delete one copy ... the other one disappears instantly. Not a good idea.
    With respect to redo logs you need a minimum of three groups, two members, and one thread per instance. So a 2 node cluster should, at a minimum have 12 physical files.
    Not mirroring the redo logs, assuming multiple members, is not as critical.

  • How to process files on the fly instead of uploading them to server ?

    Hello,
    We are using upload package of oreilly. is there a way to read files on the fly ? We don't want to upload files to server, open them and process them. But processing them on the fly will be faster for us.
    thanks in advance...

    Hello,
    If we can upload a file to server by using oreilly's package, there should be a way to read the file after it's POSTED by client's browsers..
    If we can do that, we'll not have to do followings:
    - Saving file to our server
    - Openning this file
    - Reading this file sequentially
    We want to read file on the fly. isn't it possible ? If not possible, how can oreilly package save files to a directory on our server.

  • About the MDF and log_LDF file in the SQL server

    Hai Experts ,
    I need known the , What is MDF and log_ldf file .
    In our BPC server there are MDF and Log_LDF file in the MSSQLSERVER folder under the E drive.
    The both file have huge database size .
    Can u explain what is MDF and Log_LDF file , why its created ....
    Regards
    Daya......................

    Hi Daya
    Those files are the actual SQL database files, in SQL Server management console, you have a logical view of the database with all of the objects within the database. The *.MDF and *.LDF files are the actual physical files which makes up the database in SQL Server. (Where the actual data is stored...)
    The MDF file is the actual data file
    The LDF file is the transaction log file, SQL Server uses this file in order maintain ACID compliance. It uses transactions to ensure that the database will always revert to a known consistent state on failure.
    More Info:
    [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Microsoft_SQL_Server]
    You don't provide much information regarding the environment, i.e (DEV, QA, PROD, etc), but your *.LDF file should not be bigger that your *.MDF file, and if it is quite large, then you will need your DBA to shrink your Transaction Log file.

    You have to get the classname of the Items you receive from getitems.
    There you have only to look for Folder.CLASS_NAME. Example:

    String[] sort_attributes = {"NAME"};
    //sort will be ascending
    boolean [] sort_orders = {true};
    oracle.ifs.common.SortSpecification sort = new oracle.ifs.common.SortSpecification(sort_attributes, sort_orders);
    ifsFol.setSortSpecification(sort);
    PublicObject[] contents = ifsFol.getItems();
    System.out.println("Here are the names of the items in folder: ");

  • PC Suite converts flac music files on the fly to A...

    PC Suite 6.86

    I convert my music to AAC 128 with the Nokia PC Suite App. I drop files by hand onto the application and it converts it correctly.
    Now I a have a lot of files encoded in flac format. I KNOW ALREADY that the 5320 does not play flac files.
    (and I also know that there is the free app oggplay that plays flac, but because oggplay cannot use the hardware buttons of the Nokia 5320 this is not a solution for me).
    But is it possible to have flac files converted on the fly when I drop them onto PC Suite. At the moment it doesn't seem to work so I guess Nokia Suite cannot read flac files to convert them to AAC?
    Any way to change this?

    Just to clarify:
    I read the topics about flac on this board and I DO NOT want to add to the flac support questions. I do not need flac files to play on tthe 5320.
    All I wanna do is convert the flac files on the fly with Nokia Suite (to AAC or eAAC+ or whatever is supported) and at the moment it seems its not working. So I would like a confirmation if it is not supported for conversion or if I am doing something wrong or maybe my PC Suite version is not the right one.
    Thanks again.

    You need Illustrator to open .ai files. That is, if you want to edit them.
    If you just need to place them, then tell us what you want to do with the files.
