Custom PDF Viewer & Printer

Hi PDF Gurus,
I need to develop an application in which I can:
1- Only view a PDF document (and any other features to browse in PDF document) but not freely print it, save it as... and send it by email.
2- with a customized button I can print document with some watermarks and text for every pages of PDF document.
3- this application will open a document in an UNC path with access restrictions only for the application itself.
4- The application will receive the following parameters:
PDF file name to open, username and password to access to UNC path.
5- Application will run on 50 client (up to 15 simultaneously) under Windows 32bit
IS there someone that already developed it, or otherwise, could you please indicate to me a SDK Library for C++ or VB.net to develop it?
Thanks in advance

I'm looking for a virtual PDF-printer for PPC2003. I need to be able to print out from a database application for recording ECG on the PDA, and then print out the result from the recording to a file that can easily be sent by e-mail via GPRS from the PDA. I've searched everywhere for a virtual PDF-printer for the PPC2002 - 2005 witout success - does anyone know were such printer driver can be found, if there is any?

PDF Viewer / Printer

Hi all,
I'm looking for a PDF Viewer to embed within a Swing application that would hopefully give a printing option as well. I've been looking at Adobe's now unsupported Viewer, as well as a product call PDFGo. Does anyone have any recommendations on these? Are there suggestions for other alternatives? Thanks,
Max

Why don't you let the default browser of the user do the work for you?`
Start the browser with the URL of your pdf-file. The browser will do the rest.
Check out http://browserlauncher.sourceforge.net/ if you are looking for a way to start the default browser from within your application.

Iphone sdk custom pdf viewer in uiscrollview

just like in the subject, I am struggling to get pdf view in uiscrollview.
now, first of all - I know I can do it with UIWebView. I am doing so now, but next version of my app - I need to gain much more control, hence need for doing it like that.
I hope one day, apple will create example of quartz vector graphics inside uiscrollview.
now, to the point.
basicaly got two methods:
- (void)renderZoomToBitmap
int w,h;
NSDate *start;
NSTimeInterval elapsed;
start = [NSDate date];
CGPDFPageRef pageref = CGPDFDocumentGetPage(pdf, _page);
CGRect mediaBox = CGPDFPageGetBoxRect(pageref, kCGPDFMediaBox);
mediaBox.size.width *= zoomf;
mediaBox.size.height *= zoomf;
w = mediaBox.size.width+0.5;
h = mediaBox.size.height+0.5;
CGRect viewBounds=CGRectMake(0,0,w,h);
char *renderBuff = malloc( w * h * 4 );
CGContextRef cgContext = CGBitmapContextCreate(renderBuff, w, h, 8, w * 4, CGColorSpaceCreateDeviceRGB(), kCGBitmapByteOrder32Host | kCGImageAlphaNoneSkipLast);
CGContextSetRGBFillColor(cgContext, 0.1, 0.1, 0.1, 1);
CGContextFillRect( cgContext, viewBounds );
CGContextDrawPDFPage(cgContext, pageref);
CGContextFlush( cgContext );
renderPage = CGBitmapContextCreateImage(cgContext);
free(renderBuff);
CGContextRelease(cgContext);
elapsed = [start timeIntervalSinceNow] * -1.0;
// NSLog(@"view bounds past zoom w:%f h:%f", b.size.width, b.size.height);
self.frame = viewBounds;
NSLog(@" renderZoomToBitmap zoom:%f took %f s", zoomf, elapsed );
and one that draws actual bitmap
- (void)drawRect:(CGRect)rect
CGContextRef context = UIGraphicsGetCurrentContext();
NSLog(@"draw rect %f %f %f %f", rect.origin.x, rect.origin.y, rect.size.width, rect.size.height);
CGContextTranslateCTM(context, 0.0, rect.size.height);
CGContextScaleCTM(context, 1, -1);
CGContextTranslateCTM(context, -_offset.x, _offset.y);
CGContextDrawImage(context, rect, renderPage);
[self setNeedsDisplay];
now everytime
- (void)scrollViewDidEndZooming:(UIScrollView *)scrollView withView:(UIView *)view atScale:(float)scale
is called , I set new zoom scale (zoomf) in above UIView instance, and call first method - to refresh bitmap.
it does work okay when zoomf=1.0, but when user starts zooming in/out, it does funky things.
What is the problem , do any one of you fine folks know ? please help me out with this. I am very new to quartz.
thanks.

ECL Viewer 6.0 - PDF View & Print Resolutions

Hi,
We installed SAPGUI 710 & ECL Viewer 6.0 Patch 4 for all our users.
Settings were made to display PDF through ECL Viewer in DC30.
We observed the following issues while working on PDF
Display quality are not good due to poor resoultion.
Even when we print from ECL Viewer, the quailty is very bad due to the poor resolution.
I have changed the settings to High Definition/Low speed for both Print quality & Preview.
There is some improvement. But, it is not as it is suppose to be.
Are there any other settings to improve the resolution to display & print from ECL Viewer.
Best Regards,
Madhu

We have installed the latest patches for the ECL Viewer and are still experiencing issues with resolution.
When I open a drawing and click on properties, I can see the 2D Loader Preferences for PDF's but cannot change them.
Currently the 2D Viewing Preferences are:
View As: TIFF Group4, Monochrome
Density: 300
The preferences are grayed out and cannot be changed/saved. I currently have PDF's configured to use %EAIweb.webviewer2D.1 %SAP-Control%. I have researched KPRO and SPRO trying to find the config to change the Density from 300 to 1200 to see if this resolves the issue of the drawings opening and printing in low resolution but am unable to find this config.
I may also note I have not set up the MIME types. I have read that this should be done but again I lack understanding how this would be impacting my issue of resolution using the viewer. If I configure SAP to open %auto% the PDF's open with the workstation application Adobe and are clear. BUT this does not support our requirement to complete mark up's within SAP.
Any assistance on this would be appreciated.
Thank You!

Universal PDF Viewer - Default on Letter and not on A4?

Hello guys,
Does anybody know how I can change the default settings of my Universal PDF Viewer printer?
I have to put this thing back to A4 format everytime I print.
So it is created with the Letter format default now.
It uses the HP Color LaserJet 8500 PS driver in SGDADMIN.
THNX alot!

Is ID exported PDF considered non-editable? (In the case of view&print embedding permission fonts)

Hiya!
I am a graphic designer and I use InDesign 5.5.
I have a question about font embedding when using the InDesign's export as a PDF in "print" format feature.
Many fonts allow embedding into digital documents only for the purpose of viewing and printing.
In addition to this the font EULA's mention that the embedded font may not be used to edit the document.
Is it possible to create a non-editable PDF with embedded fonts?
Is choosing PDF export option "print" the key here, or embedding the fonts as a subset?
Isn't it still possible to edit PDF in Acrobat with touch up text tool? Or use some third party editing program?
OR Is a PDF file - with fonts embedded as a subset - non-editable as such, or at least considered to be non-editable enough?
Or is it just that the file doesn't really have to be non-editable, but it must not be edited...
How do I ensure that? Do I even need to ensure that?
Whole thing seems so controversial.
Hope someone can shed some light into this!!!
-Ahlax-

Ahlax,
There are several separate concepts here.
First, PDF is really a final form file format. It wasn't designed as an editable format for layout such as InDesign's .indd format ane Word's .doc and .docx formats. Although PDF files may be tagged with contextual metadata, typical content of PDF files contains no context in terms of words, sentences, paragraphs, columns, etc. It is simply graphical objects including text fragments, vector artwork, and raster images at a particular place on a page with specified graphical attributes (color, transparency, etc.). As such producing a full PDF file editor first requires definition of what it actually means to edit such a file given the characteristics of PDF files.
That having been said, Acrobat and various third party plugins to Acrobat as well as third party applications provide some degree of editability for PDF files, recognizing that such edits are definitely not at the abstractual level that you get with InDesign. You can “touch-up” text, but doing a re-layout is effectively impossible. In most cases, it is better (in terms of time, effort, and resultant quality) to go back to the source document, make the changes there, and then regenerate the PDF.
Fonts are a totally separate issue. Adobe products will not embed any font into a PDF file unless the font allows for at least preview and print embedding. For PDF forms, Acrobat requires a font to allow editability embedding. However for text touch-up and other edits, Acrobat never uses the embedded font. Such edits are only allowed if the user has the same font actually installed on their system.
In terms of forcing a PDF file to be totally non-editable, that is done by applying security to the file when you export the PDF file from InDesign (the Security tab) or in Acrobat Pro after PDF creation (go to the Security tab under Document Properties (Ctrl-D) to set such security).

How do I stop pdf viewer from printing 4 pages per page?

When I print a file off pdf viewer in firefox, my printout comes out 4 pages per page, even though I check advanced settings and verify that it is set to 1 page per page. I do not know where else I can look to correct this problem.

HI nmrdata,
It may be that Firefox printer settings need to be reset. Please see [[Fix printing problems in Firefox]].
If you have any questions on how to open the about:config page please do the following steps :
# In the [[Location bar autocomplete|Location bar]], type '''about:config''' and press '''Enter'''. The about:config "''This might void your warranty!''" warning page may appear.
# Click '''I'll be careful, I promise!''' to continue to the about:config page.
# Look for print.printer_print and reset the option.

How do I view/print a pdf document in an email? I'm not getting the little hand icon.

How do I view/print a pdf document in an email? I'm not getting the little hand icon.

Ah, yes, I'm using Adobe Reader! That makes sense. Thanks so much for your reply. At the moment, I scan Word documents into my computer and they're automatically converted to PDFs. If I had Adobe Acrobat on my computer, and scanned in documents, would they open in Reader automatically or could I open them in Acrobat and therefore add password protection?

I am running Quickbooks Online and need a pdf viewer plug in for Firefox 5 in order to print checks. Is it available and if so where?

After writing a check in QBOL it shows it in a pdf viewer within my browser. After upgrading to FIREFOX 5 I can not print checks correctly as the earlier pdf viewer plug in is nit compatible with Firefox 5

Try the version posted here:

Need help on remote printing info for custom PDF form...

Hi,
I did quite a lot of search on this requirement but failed to access the correct info in this forum. In case anyone has already done this, please do explain and point to the right link. thanks
I have a custom table where I will maintain every customer's email id, printer name (printer in his network where he wants me to print this PDF output, there can be multiple printers separated by comma) and his fax number.
Question 1: For remote printing,what all details do I need to maintain in my custom table regarding that printer (IP address or what ?? )? Also, any other configuration to be done to make this happen ?
Question 2: In my code how do I trigger my ADOBE form to be sent to that remote printer for printing ?
Currently I have done
CALL FUNCTION 'FP_FUNCTION_MODULE_NAME'
CALL FUNCTION 'FP_JOB_OPEN'
CALL FUNCTION z_FUNCNAME
CALL FUNCTION 'FP_JOB_CLOSE'
As of now, the print dialog opens and i can see the adobe output in the print preview option. This is OK for me when I want to do local printing. But how do I trigger the remote printing automatically based on the values in the custom table.
This is purely a custom transaction based printing and hence no output determination is configured .
Apologies if this question is repetitive, but I fail to assimilate the required info from the forum.
thnks

resolved.thanks

Unable to view/print pdf from Banks website.

I am unable to view/print pdf files from banks website, a white blank screen appears. I've uninstalled and reinstalled Adobe multiple times. I'm running Windows Explorer 9 and Adobe Reader XI. I am able to view/print these files from a different computer and save them to a flash drive. I am then able to open the files on my computer directly from the flash drive. I am thinking maybe I have a setting enabled/disabled somewhere??

Thank you for your response. Please be patient with my ignorance--I am not a power user.
1)I do not know what you mean when you direct me to open the PDFs within Reader. I typically do open PDFs that are already stored in my files on my computer, but I don't know how do vies/download pdfs that I need to view or download from the Web from within Reader. Can you please tell me the steps involved?
2) Do you happen to know whether this is a new development with Chrome? I have been using both Chrome and Adobe Reader seamlessly for several years with no issues.

Firefox 29 no longer prints properly from the built in PDF viewer

I print several EBAY labels a day. Just upgraded to firefox 29 (not realizing really what had changed - now regretting) and the built in PDF viewer no longer prints properly. It shows the label fine on the screen, but when sending to the printer (I tried two different ones) it just prints out two blanks pages. I tried a number of different printer settings and as i mentioned two different printers. Can't get anything to print now except two blank pages. If I switch the application settings in firefox to use an external 3rd party PDF viewer (e.g. Adobe reader 11, PDF Viewer plus, etc) those work fine. However, the default built in PDF viewer clearly broke in this new version. A very disappointing launch for me as this is critical feature for my use. Yes, I have a work around, but the point (and new bug) is still valid.

Unable to view/print some PDF documents

I am unable to view/print some of the technical documents (white papers) in the 91AS documentation page. When I attempt to open them I get the netscape "extend capabilities" dialog, but my local internet support does not have a plug-in/download for the file type multipart-byterange and requested that I contact the site owner for a source for the file. I am using Netscape/Communicator 4.73 and adobe acrobat reader 5.0
Thank you

Format on HTML report different than on PDF view

I have a Quote report based on Product Revenue that we send to our customers. I have it formatted nicely when initially displayed and also when viewed with the Printer Friendly HTML option. But... when I view it as a PDF, it is not even close.
The layout of the report uses a narrative section with HTML formatting to get the elements to align correctly, per the documentation. The HTML I use is as follows:
Narrative Section formatting code:
<table width="600">
<tr><td colspan=3> <div align="center"><b><font size="5" face="Times">
@10</font><br>
<font size="4" face="Times" > Prepared Exclusively For: @8</font></b>
</div></td>
</tr>
<tr> <th width="250"><div align="left">Quote Details</div></th> <th width="50"> </th><th width="300"><div align="left">Sales Manager Info:</div></th></tr>
<tr>
<td>Quote ID: @9</td><td> </td><td>Name: @16</td></tr>
<tr>
<td>Quote Date: @15</td><td> </td><td>Email: @17</td>
<tr><td>Quote Expiration: @14</td><td> </td><td> </td></tr>
<tr><td colspan=3><div align="center"><b>Phones - Cell:</b> @18, <b>Work:</b> @20, <b>Fax: </b> @19 </div></td></tr>
</table>
Notes: @11Is there another way to get the HTML view and PDF view to look the same (or at least close)?
(more details and examples here --> [HTML and PDF Views|http://crm.nurserysupplies.com/images/CRM_HTML_and_PDF_views.doc])

To date, this is considered a product limitation. I just talked with an escalation manager regarding this very issue, and he offered to bring this up with the product managers/engineers on 5/15/09. I recommend escalating this issue and asking your escalation manager to do the same.
We are trying to create a customer contract based on Opportunity information.
The best way to accomplish what you are trying to do is: Click Printer Friendly > Click HTML > Click on File - Print in browser window > Either print to PDF using a pdf printer from adobe or the cutepdf or print a hard copy.
