Difference b/w Offline & online Pdf's

Hi Friends,
   can any one tell me a what is the difference b/w offline and online Pdf's
Thanks,
vino

hi Vinoth,
<b>in the ONLINE scenario</b> you fill the form online, i.e. your PDF form is within a WebDynpro View. in this scenario there is a mapping between the interactive form UI elements and the Web Dynpro context.
Any changes done to the UI element's conten are reflected back in the Web Dynpro Context and vice versa.
<b>in the OFFLINE scenario</b> you get an offline copy of the PDF form. which you can fill and save on ur filesystem. when online you upload this offline PDF form with data saved in it to your Web Dynpro application and again you get all data stored in the form mapped into the corresponding WebDynproContext. which thus is available to you for programming use.
hope this helps...
with regards,

  • Transferring Data on Offline PDF to Online PDF

    Hi All,
    I have an Offline PDF Form filled with Data and i need to transfer this data to another Form of the same structure but which is online and can be submitted to SAP from there.
    How can i deal with this situation and what are my options?
    Thanks in advance..!

    Hi,
    though I do not understand why you don't just upload the offline PDF-Files as a complete file to the desired online location, I try to give you some suggestions.
    To my mind you've several options to solve the problem:
    1) You can start by uploading the complete file to sap and then parse it there. Try to gather the information by keywords and at which place they are located and by the format of the text. For instance in case of a simple form which looks like that: Firstname: ________ Lastname:____,
    you could go for the keyword 'Firstname:' and you'ld put the following 8 characters in a variable which you insert in the online pdf-File. Doing this, you have to get a little bit familiar with Postscript, then you'll understand where to insert in the ps-file the parsed information in the right way. Use ghostscript to check the validity of the ps-file. (PDF-Format is just an enhanced .ps file) Open the online-file with a function module, change it and close it again. After reloading the site there have to be some visible changes.
    2) The second idea is to use an offline pdf2xml converter. Once you have the desired information embedded in XML-Tags, you can load the file and put the data in a table, which you design according to the information you need for the online pdf-form. Once again, open the online file, do the changes from your database entries of the offline form field by field and close the file. Reload. Done.
    3) If you didn't mean online .pdf but just an online HTML-form(?), XML-Data provides a good basis to deal with  the data and to go on with it.
    I don't know if this meets your problem, just an idea.

  • Viewing online PDF documents with Adobe readerX1

    Can someone please help me with this. For the past two months I have been unable to read online PDF documents. I have now followed the Quick Fix instruction re plug-ins but it made no difference. I couldn't even open the Adobe terms and conditions in this section so had to just tick the box anyway to get through.

    Pat, I downloaded 11.0.04 but can not now install it because I get the message:-
    "The upgrade patch cannot be installed by the Windows Installer service because the program to be upgraded may be missing, or the upgrade patch may update a different version of the program. Verify that the program to be upgraded exists on your computer and that you have the correct upgrade patch".
    Do I first have to uninstall 11.0.03.37?

  • Problem printing Online PDF file

    Have a strange problem printing online PDF files. The printer prints all other documents ok - Word, Pages, PDF files that are stored on disk etc. However when i try and print a PDF file online - i.e. online job application form, the printer goes into melt down. It will only print part of the first page then stops. The drive wheel pushes the paper back and forth a few times then stops. I can print each page one at a time but won't let me print all at once.
    Any ideas? It does this regardless of which computer I use (both mac's). Makes no difference if the printer is connected direct via USB or Airport.
    Any ideas?
    Colin.

    What kind of printer is it? Is the software up to date? Is it possible to provide the URL of the page you are trying to print?

  • How do I complete online .pdf form and then print?

    Sometimes, I can enter data on an online .pdf form and sometimes, I cannot.  I need to complete forms and then print them rather than print a blank form to complete by handwriting.  Window XP and Vista on my computers.  I have installed some Adobe and Acrobat programs but do not know which ones would help me with my problem.  thank you

    Adobe is the company. I assume you are talking about Reader and Acrobat. It would be nice to know which ones, but the answer is likely the same. With Reader, you can only complete the form electronically in Reader if the creator added from fields for your to fill in. If not you have one option and that is to print. You could still play with filling it out electronically, but you would have to print the form, put it back in the printer, and use your word processor to place the information on the form. This is a bit time consuming and requires some measuring and possibly some trial and error, but it does work - I used to fill forms out like this all the time, but generally forms I filled out once a month and so it was worth the time.
    With Acrobat, you can use the Typewriter tool, Use the Text Touchup Tool (not real convenient) with the ctrl key used when you place the cursor, or create your own fields. Depending on your version of Acrobat, you may not be able to create form fields (like AA7 Std and before I think, Pro includes the form tools). With forms, you may also have the choice of the form files under TOOLS>Advanced Editing (typically called AcroForms) or the FORM menu that typically takes you to Designer.
    Those are your choices, though there are variations with version (next time try to tell us the program version you are using and if it is Reader or Acrobat - for Reader you may want to go to the Reader forum).

  • Is it possible to make an OSB Proxy service offline/online based on BS

    JMS QUEUE
    |
    |_____ Proxy Service <-------->Business Service <---------> External System URL
    I have a configuration as shown above.
    There is a way to make the Business Service offline/online based on the External system URL being offline/online by setting the
    Business service-> Operational Settings->Offline Endpoint URIs with a timesatmp.
    Is it possible to make the state of the proxy service to enabled/disabled based on this state of BS based on external enpoint URI?
    This is a requirement such that the messages in the JMS queue doesnot get lost or consumed when the external system is offline.
    Thanks in Advance!

    I have thought about this. There are some problems here....
    I cannot use the same proxy to invoke the java callout and then based on the code or handler disable it, since
    1) i would have no way to enable back the proxy again.
    2) Also there is some amount of message loss.
    So i will have to use another proxy to do the same, but in this case
    1) what would be the trigger to this proxy?
    2) And how often do i invoke the java callout to see if the URI is up or not? (wouldnt that affect the performance?)
    I am just wondering why did they give an offline URI option in the business service and no similar option in the proxy service, Any Idea?
    Thanks

  • I have ADOBE X reader installed in my systems. When I wanted to open an online pdf form, Mozilla puts up a error message and the form does not open.

    When I try to open a online pdf form, I get a error message to close the reader and try it again. Sometimes, the message does not come but what I see is just a BLACK screen in Mozilla.

  • Opening an Online PDF

    Since our IT Department installed Acrobat Pro 9.0 on my computer, I have not been able to click on a PDF link on a web site and open it. When we click on the file, we get the following error message:
    "The Adobe Acrobat/Reader that is running can not be used to view PDF files in a Web Browser. Adobe Acrobat/Reader version 8 or 9 is required. Please exit and try again."
    Since I'm using Acrobat 9, the error message is, well, erroneous. How do I solve the problem? The work around they came up with was to install Foxit Reader. Since I updated Acrobat 9 earlier today, I'm back to not being able to read online PDFs (which means that I have to reassociate Foxit with the files, unless someone here can tell me how to get Acrobat Pro to work.)

    Do you also have Reader on the machine? If so that might be the problem. If not, then do you have Acrobat set to view in the browser?

  • Cannot Create Online PDF

    Beginning last evening I was able to log into my Create Online PDF account but when I tried to create a PDF from HTML as I usually do, I was told by the pop up window Your Trials Have Expired. It went on to,say, "We're sorry. You have used all your free trials.

    Hi. This is the qmail-send program at yahoo.com.
    I'm afraid I wasn't able to deliver your message to the following addresses.
    This is a permanent error; I've given up. Sorry it didn't work out.
    <[email protected]>:
    64.18.5.10 does not like recipient.
    Remote host said: 550 No such user - psmtp
    Giving up on 64.18.5.10.
    I then started a Web Case and haven't hear a word. Every time Create PDF Online inserts a red service alert, my heart almost stops because I know I am going to get into trouble. This has all happened before. This red alert saying Users of Adobe PDF Online may experience an interruption in service between 5:00pm and 6:30pm PST on 1/14/11, while maintenance activities are being performed. This red alert has been going on for a lot longer than this recent alert. There has been a red Service alert on the page for that three weeks. I was able to create files without a problem. But now, I am welcomed to my email address, however my five free trials have ended and I am asked to subscribe. I am paid up until the next transaction date of 01/26/2011. My free trials ended back in 2007 if not earlier when I subscribed to this Online PDF service.

    I'm having the same issue. When I log in it says my trial has expired. But I have been a subscriber since 2007. And so far I have lost a whole days worth of work trying to figure out what is wrong with it. I have not yet found a way to log in as a subscriber. Adobe please fix the issue. I will cancel my subscription if the problem persists, I'm not paying $119.88 for something that is not going to work or help my buisness.

  • Save data for online pdf

    Hi!
    Don´t know if I doing this to complex, but I would like to work in an online pdf, and be able to save data - and on open i load the xml file.
    flow
    1) start form - lets say it has 10 fields
    2) fill out 5 fields and save data - export/submit it to a script that can save an xml on webserver
    3) on open, the pdf form opens with data. Could also be that an xdp was uploaded, which had a ref to pdf.
    Is there a better way - come with your surgetions! I would like the server-site script to be PHP, which a have a little experince with..
    Look forward to those clever ideas :)
    Thomas Groenbaek - Denmark

    No, you have to do it by creating duplicate and then renaming. In the Documents list, tap the Edit button, select the file, and tap the "Duplicate selected document" icon at the top, second from the left.
    To rename: Edit > select file > Rename (icon to the left of the trash can)

  • Since I got OS10.8.2 Safari won't display online PDF files?

    Since I got OS10.8.2 Safari won't display online PDF files?
    Can anyone tell me what the problem is?

    Back up all data.
    Triple-click the line of text below to select it, the copy the selected text to the Clipboard (command-C):
    /Library/Internet Plug-ins
    In the Finder, select
    Go ▹ Go to Folder
    from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-G. Paste into the text box that opens (command-V), then press return.
    From the folder that opens, remove any items that have the letters “PDF” in the name. You may be prompted for your login password. Then quit and relaunch Safari, and test.
    The "Silverlight" web plugin distributed by Microsoft can also interfere with PDF display in Safari, so you may need to remove it as well, if it's present.
    If you still have the issue, repeat with this line:
    ~/Library/Internet Plug-ins
    If you don’t like the results of this procedure, restore the items from the backup you made before you started. Relaunch Safari again.

  • Why doesn't Adobe Reader XI load when viewing online PDFs?

    This is probably a stupid question, but I noticed something odd last night.  I have Adobe Reader 9 on my netbook and Adobe Reader XI on my main computer.  I had been browsing some online PDF files on my netbook, and in Adobe Reader 9 I get the Reader "interface", i.e., there is the border surrounding the PDF, with the page number box at the top and I can search the document for various things.  On my main computer with Adobe Reader XI, the PDF files are simply downloading and I don't have the Reader "interface" anymore, so there's no way to search for items or go to specific pages.  Is there someplace to edit my settings in XI so that I get the interface?  Thanks so much for your help.

    Open Chrome
    In the address bar, type chrome://plugins and press Enter
    Scroll down to the entry called Chrome PDF Viewer and click Disable.
    Scroll to the Adobe Reader or Acrobat entry and click Enable.

  • When printing from an online PDF, the page prints in extra large scale. How do I fix this?

    when printing from an online PDF, the page prints in extra large scale. How do I fix this?

    This can happen when Firefox has misread the paper size from the information supplied by Windows. Clearing it can involve finding some obscure settings, but here goes:
    (1) In a new tab, type or paste '''about:config''' in the address bar and press Enter. Click the button promising to be careful.
    (2) In the search box above the list, type or paste '''print''' and pause while the list is filtered
    (3) For each setting for the problem printer, right-click and Reset it. The fastest way is to right-click with the mouse and then press the r key on the keyboard with your other hand.
    Note: In a couple other threads involving Brother printers, the preference '''printer_printer_name.print_paper_data''' was set to 256 and when the user edited it to 1 that fixed the paper size problem. If you see a 256 there, you can edit the value by doubling-clicking it or using right-click>Modify.
