Diary App with PDF output support

I have an MA course this term for which I need to keep a learning diary. Could you recommend a diary app using which I can export all the entries to a PDF and have it printed as a book?

Figured it out myself! yay!  (only took my entire moring)
The solution:
Dont print to PDF!
SAVE AS COPY, then select Adobe PDF and click SAVE, this will bring up a dialog box with the options you need (including the "High Quality Print" Adobe PDF Preset)
This was not clear in any of the instructions i read

  • Problem with PDF output quality

    We recently upgraded to CS4 Suite Design premium and i am having problems getting illustrator to print high quality output.  I have a file created in illustrator which contains 300dpi tiff images created in photoshop (CMYK colorspace in both photoshop image and illustrator file)  when i print this file to pdf everything looks hi-rez except these images.  i have attempted adjusting all the obvious settings in the print dialoge box including:  Output/Printer Resolution, Graphics/Postscript level, Advanced/overprint and transparency flattener options/custom settings.  and nothing has worked.  Other things i have noted, is that in the print dialog box the only presets listed are Custom, Default and Default Web/Video/Mobile.  I have looked through the online help files and found the info on how to add "High Quality Print" to my adobe pdf presets, however it doesn't work.  furthermore i have tried the instructions here: http://help.adobe.com/en_US/Illustrator/14.0/WSA79FA899-BC95-401e-BD44-5B26BC31B369.html  where it says to move the files from "Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\Adobe\Adobe PDF\Application Support\Adobe PDF"  however there is no folder called "Application Support" on my system.  I have run out of ideas.
    The odd thing here, is that i can take the AI file into photoshop, and print a "High Quality Print" from photoshop with no problems, but i'd like to remove this step to speed up my workflow.
    I've attached both the high-quality pdf output from photoshop and the low-quality pdf output from illustrator for reference. (look closely at the logo's)

  • Multiple RDF exeuction with PDF output?

    Hello,
    First, let say I'm beginner with HTML DB but experimented with Forms and Reports.
    We want to create a new application with an HTML DB front end to enter data and launch reports.
    We have 3 complex crosstab .rdf reports that produce PDF output. Our users want us to run them separatly but also they want the possibility to run them together and present only one pdf output, that is the concatenation of the 3 pdf, via a single button click.
    In Forms, I would probably generate the 3 pdf on Report server file system and after execution completion, run a freeware that merge the 3 pdf together and present the resulting pdf on the screen. This required to run report one after the other in sequence (sync).
    But from HTML DB, I don't know if I can do something like this i.e. create the 3 pdf and when created, merge them and present it to the user? I have take a look at Oracle Report itself but found nothing.
    We run our DB on Unix, we are using 9iAS for listener and Win2000 on the client.
    Thank you
    Jean

    We solved a similar situation by creating a 4th report that was a combination of the original 3 reports. When the print all button is hit, we run the 4th report.
    It does makes maintenance of the reports an issue. If you change one of the reports you have to change the 4th report.
    However, you do get some benefits like page numbering.
    Another possibility, might be to just have 1 report that does the whole thing, then use parameters to decide to print all or part of it. That way you wouldn't have the issue of maintenance.

  • Embedding Fonts in Oracle Reports with PDF output

    I've read in the data sheet for Oracle reports that you can embed font in the PDF output, but I cannot seem to find any documentation on how this is done. Current we have PDF reports being generated using reports server on Compaq (Alpha based) server running TRUE64 UNIX. The reports server uses the fonts install on the Compaq to figure out the layout (we use auto-sized fields). When the PDF is displayed on a Windows client the fonts are substituted and the labels and fields overlap. I want to embed the UNIX fonts into the PDF so that the output is reproduced as it was generated.

    You need to export as PDF (Interactive) and you also need to view the PDF in Reader or Acrobat 9 or later.

  • HowTo make a servlet with PDF output to the browser

    A new one goes here !
    How do I make a Servlet which functions like the rwservlet, and pushes a PDF output to the clientbrowser ?
    Is there any sample code that uses rwclient or others to produce a response ?
    Thanks anyone.

    Requests to the ReportsServer to run a job and return PDF is simply submitting a URL. You could easily write a servlet to submit a URL and stream the results back to the browser. However, this is a more generic requirement not really involving Reports (apart from the fact that you're calling it via the URL).
    For more information on creating a servlet to submit a URL and get the results, you might like to cross-post to the JDeveloper forum.

  • Once Again, Problems with PDF Output in 3.0

    Sorry that i write another thread to this topic. i think i ´ve read all other posts (and oracle documents from oracle) but i can´t find the answer to my problem
    there a two things i wondering about:
    first: What is the right port (and how can i prove it, which one is used?)
    Some write use 8888 , some use the listener Port 1521 ???
    second: after copying the fop directory, do i have to use
    oc4j -install ?
    Bonus Questions :-)
    I always get 0 length pdf documents. Is there a logfile, where i can look in?
    At my first try i put the 3 lines at the of the file application.xml, but i got an error
    now i use this :
    <library path="../../../j2ee/fop-0.20.5/build/fop.jar"/>
    <library path="../../../j2ee/fop-0.20.5/lib/batik.jar"/>
    <library path="../../../j2ee/fop-0.20.5/lib/avalon-framework-cvs-20020806.jar" />
    </orion-application>#
    Is this the right position?
    Thanks
    marco

    Hi Marco,
    First: What is the right port (and how can i prove it, which one is used?)In your OC4J configuration there will be a line which specifies which port should be used. To check which port it is try doing this -
    [jes@db j2ee]$ grep "port=" home/config/http-web-site.xml
    <web-site host="localhost" port="8888"
    <web-site port="8888" display-name="Oracle9iAS Containers for J2EE HTTP Web Site">
        <!-- <frontend host="your_host_name" port="80" /> -->I ran that command whilst in the j2ee directory, you can see the output I got (3 lines), so in my case it is running on port 8888 (the third line is actually commented out).
    To check if the port is actually listening, try this -
    [root@db root]# lsof -i:8888
    COMMAND  PID USER   FD   TYPE  DEVICE SIZE NODE NAME
    java    9047 root   14u  IPv4 5133190       TCP *:8888 (LISTEN)
    java    9048 root   14u  IPv4 5133190       TCP *:8888 (LISTEN)
    java    9049 root   14u  IPv4 5133190       TCP *:8888 (LISTEN)
    java    9050 root   14u  IPv4 5133190       TCP *:8888 (LISTEN)
    java    9051 root   14u  IPv4 5133190       TCP *:8888 (LISTEN)
    java    9052 root   14u  IPv4 5133190       TCP *:8888 (LISTEN)
    java    9053 root   14u  IPv4 5133190       TCP *:8888 (LISTEN)
    java    9054 root   14u  IPv4 5133190       TCP *:8888 (LISTEN)
    java    9055 root   14u  IPv4 5133190       TCP *:8888 (LISTEN)
    java    9057 root   14u  IPv4 5133190       TCP *:8888 (LISTEN)
    java    9058 root   14u  IPv4 5133190       TCP *:8888 (LISTEN)
    java    9060 root   14u  IPv4 5133190       TCP *:8888 (LISTEN)
    java    9061 root   14u  IPv4 5133190       TCP *:8888 (LISTEN)
    second: after copying the fop directory, do i have to use
    oc4j -install ?No, when you run OC4J it should automatically setup the files for you, you can start the OC4J container by doing this -
    [root@db home]# $ORACLE_HOME/jdk/bin/java -jar oc4j.jar
    07/03/29 07:05:43 Oracle Application Server Containers for J2EE 10g (9.0.4.0.0) initializedYou can change the path to the java command to suit your own installation.
    Is this the right position?This is what my application.xml looks like -
    [root@db config]# more application.xml
    <?xml version="1.0" standalone="yes"?>

  • Problem with PDF Output

    Hi all,i am new to Oracle Apps.Today i happen to show the PDF o/p from my form.I created the template and attached in the XML publisher responsibility.But,when i try to run the form i can't see the PDF o/p,instead i get the XML o/p.Can anyone kindly say me what might be wrong?

    --  fnd_message.show;
    end if ;Thanks in advance!!

    HI,
    Check the Template registration Sequence and change it the output format to PDF or other wise while running the concurrent program there is a option to change the output format.
    Click the option button in the concurrent program window and change the format what u need

  • Problems with PDF output

    I created a journal page in Illustrator - which is a series of lines, some thicker than others.  They have been combined into a layout for a journal in InDesign.  All looks great and prints great from both programs.
    When I output to PDF I lose the integrity of my lines.  On screen they all look the same width (and they shouldn't), and when I print from the pdf, the thinner lines are completely gone.  I have tried various PDF settings and can't figure out what is causing the problem and why the pdf isn't looking exactly like the original.

    Are you printing with Adobe Acrobat? Other PDF software sometimes gives strange behavior, especially Preview.

  • Any iOS app with enabled keychain support yet?

    Hello,
    can someone tell me if there are any apps which have been upgraded with the ability of use the password stored in the iCloud keychain? I'm starting to think that it is not working on my iOS. I have some "common" apps, like Amazon, eBay, Paypal and no one of these, support the keychain?

    If you cannot hear the voice call but they can hear you it sounds possibly like a codec miss match
    g.729 g.711 etc. Some client software allows the choice of codec or changing the order of preference
    fall back . If one side is using for example g.711 and the other g.729 or doesn't have or disabled a VoIP codec you can have this happen

  • Preview.app with .pdf: crop box view in slideshow revisted

    Regarding the archived discussion found here:
    https://discussions.apple.com/message/11230425
    The question was never really answered as to provide a working solution for Nicolas. Here is his original question:
    When I preview a .pdf in the "crop box" mode and I start a slideshow, it shows me the "media box" version.
    How can I see the the crop box in the slideshow?
    I have had this same issue with certain PDFs in Preview. The simplest and quickest solution I propose is:
    1) Open PDF in Preview
    2) Find out the actual cropped page size via Tools > Show Inspector
    3) Go to File > Print... and then to Paper Size: Manage Paper Sizes... and create a custom paper size for the cropped page size.
    4) Finally, click on PDF V Save as PDF... and save a copy of the original PDF.
    When you open the file copy in Preview and go to View > Slideshow it will now compose without the crop marks and bleeds.
    If anyone still is having this issue, I hope this helps.

    Since the media box (as you may know) is the size of the largest page in the PDF file, regardless of placement of objects in the PDF. The crop box is always a subsection of this (or the same size, but never larger), defined by you. It should be the part of the PDF page (media box) that contains the text, pictures, etc. that you want the person reading your PDF to see.
    For example, when composing the layout for print publication, you would want to set the media box to be slightly larger than the media you will be printing on. You would then set the crop box to be the precise size of the final, printed media. If you were printing on normal 8.5" x 11" paper then media box would be larger than 8.5" x 11", and the crop box to 8.5 " x 11". This way, you can position pictures and text and whatnot right up to the edge of the printed page. This will also allow you to see whether anything is positioned wrong and is hanging over the edge of the crop box (which would mean it'll be cut off when printed".
    So basically, what I meant to say is: the crop box isn't meant for changing how a PDF is displayed; it's meant to control what prints out, and what doesn't, when printing to paper. Microsoft Excel does the same thing -- when looking at a spreadsheet on the computer, you see all cells. If you want to only print a portion of the spreadsheet then you'd use the "set print area" option. Setting the print area isn't the same as just printing a single page or selection of pages, although in some situations they may produce similar printed pages.

  • Issues with PDF output

    Hi,
    I have a report registered for language=English and territory=Netherlands. But when I run the report, I cannot see the output. I get the following message:
    "Unable to find published output for this request"
    The report fetches data and creates the XML correctly. I have registered the template with Language = ENglish and Territory = Netherlands. I run the above report from a Netherland installation.
    Any pointers how to debug this.
    Thanks,
    Ashish

    Hi Aashish,
    I suggest you to check the RTF Template of your report ....as if your xml output file on submit request form--->diagnostic --->view xml ...is generated ... it means that your data defination file is perfectly fine but there is issue with your rtf template....may be some of grouping or tag is not put properly...
    one thing i want to suggest you to pls save that data file as .xml extension and upload in rtf u designed on youe desktop.... check theprview if its coming fine or not.
    let me know if u still facing the same problem.
    regards

  • Preview.app with .pdf: crop box view in slideshow

    Hi,
    when I preview a .pdf in the "crop box" mode and I start a slideshow, it shows me the "media box" version.
    How can I see the the crop box in the slideshow?

    Since the media box (as you may know) is the size of the largest page in the PDF file, regardless of placement of objects in the PDF. The crop box is always a subsection of this (or the same size, but never larger), defined by you. It should be the part of the PDF page (media box) that contains the text, pictures, etc. that you want the person reading your PDF to see.
    For example, when composing the layout for print publication, you would want to set the media box to be slightly larger than the media you will be printing on. You would then set the crop box to be the precise size of the final, printed media. If you were printing on normal 8.5" x 11" paper then media box would be larger than 8.5" x 11", and the crop box to 8.5 " x 11". This way, you can position pictures and text and whatnot right up to the edge of the printed page. This will also allow you to see whether anything is positioned wrong and is hanging over the edge of the crop box (which would mean it'll be cut off when printed".
    So basically, what I meant to say is: the crop box isn't meant for changing how a PDF is displayed; it's meant to control what prints out, and what doesn't, when printing to paper. Microsoft Excel does the same thing -- when looking at a spreadsheet on the computer, you see all cells. If you want to only print a portion of the spreadsheet then you'd use the "set print area" option. Setting the print area isn't the same as just printing a single page or selection of pages, although in some situations they may produce similar printed pages.
