Does Adobe provide a free API for creating PDF files

Does Adobe provide a free API (for Windows) for creating PDF files? We are currently using
a basic, internally developed API for creating PDF files, but would like some additional
capabilities ... in particular the ability to add a watermark that appears when printing
but not when viewing PDF files on-line.
If this is not the right forum for this question, please let me know what forum would be
appropriate.
Thanks,
Mark

OK, with a little bit of searching on Adobe's web site, I found the answer to my question. Yes, Adobe does offer
an API for creating/manipulating/reading PDF files: it's called the Adobe PDF Library SDK and it has to be
licensed. Version 9 is the latest. The cost is decided on a case-by-case basis. Here is the link:

I have Adobe Photoshop Elements 10 plus I create PDF files for work some are scan pdf docs. When I install Photoshop Elements 10 it DOES convert all the PDF files to Photoshop Elements-10 Docs. it even changes and shows the PSE-10 Icon. So I am alway installing PSE-10 or uninstalling it. If I send the PDF file that has been automatically converted to a PSE-10 the person I send the file to can not open it because they do not have PSE-10. What can I do to stop PSE-10 from converting my PDF files? Don't tell me to upgrade PSE-10 I tried their on-line program and it is too advance for a hobby photographer like myself and their Help Desk is impossible to reach.

How to open my file in Gmail after download free trial for converting PDF file to Microsoft Words.

after download the Free Trial for Converting PDF file to Microsoft Words, I can't open my file in gmail

One solution would be to generate the report via an servlet which you then call with an af:golink with an target frame set to blank.
For a sample how to do this check out http://tompeez.wordpress.com/2011/12/16/jdev11-1-2-1-0-handling-imagesfiles-in-adf-part-3/

Does Adobe provide a PHP library for dynamically generating a non-editable PDF on a website?

As the title says, I am wondering if Adobe provides a PHP library for dynamically generating a non-editable PDF for my company website. Any information on this would be greatly appreciated!

By non-editable I assume you simply mean "with password security set" and understand the serious limitations of this.
While Adobe doesn't offer PHP it offers several server options
- LiveCycle PDF Generator. Java API and watched folder. Convert file types to PDF. Security can be set, but perhaps only globally.
- Adobe PDF LIbrary. For experienced C/C++ programmers. Licensed by DataLogics.

Hi sonotim,
I'm not sure what you mean by your question. There's a couple of different ways of thinking about this. Could you be more specific about what you're trying to find out?

Does Adobe offer a mobile app for editing PDFs?

I'M looking for a mobile app that can be used on a Chromebook or iPad that provides the PDF editing functions offered by Acrobat. Does Adobe offer such a product? If not, what do you recommend from the currently available apps.

AFAIK, no.

Interactive Report uses XML data saved in database for creating PDF files?

Hello all,
I installed Apache FOP to allow a PDF "Download" in the Interactive Reports.
Correct me if i'm wrong, when a PDF file is created with the Interactive Report option "Download", it uses a XML data to make it. Right ??
I would like know where in the database is this XML code located.
Regards Pedro.

After some searching i found that XML its stored as a BLOB and it is used as XML based report data and RTF or XSL-FO based report layout.
I didn't find yet where is located the XML used by Interactive Reports. If someone knows where in the APEX database is the XML located please share.
Regards Pedro.

Making Adobe Reader my default application for viewing PDF files.

Hello,
Can someone help me on this issue. I am trying to put adobe reader as the default pdf application instead of preview. I have tried everything...however when i download a pdf document it only provides me the choice to open with preview.
Thanks,

Control/click (or right click if you're using a two button mouse) on whatever file you're wanting to change the association to. In the menu that comes up select "Get Info" and another box will open. Down towards the bottom you should see Open with: and a drop down that has suggested apps. If it's in the list select it (if not navigate to it) and then once that file is associated with whatever app. right below you'll see Change All... and select it and now all those file types will open with whatever app you've selected.

I can't create PDF files from DWF files

I'm looking for a solution for creating PDF files from DWF files. When I attempt to create a DWF file to PDF, the file has problems being created. Does anyone have a solution to this?

We are trying to print to pdf format from a dwf (Autodesk Design Review) drawing file. DWF is autodesk’s version of PDF. In autocad, you can print to either dwf or pdf. However, some of the fonts within autocad are not recognized by adobe so the fonts often don’t print properly. Thus, we print to dwf first, then print again to pdf.
We operate 2 basically identical computers; the one computer is able to print from dwf to pdf and the other is not. When I say not able, only part of the drawing actually prints; like it is not able to process the data. The computer that cannot print from dwf to pdf, can actually print directly to pdf from Autocad. It just cannot print from dwf to pdf.
Both computers are running Windows 7, Autocad Architecture 2015, and Adobe acrobat X.
Let me know if this is enough information.

Create PDF files

Does anyone know of a free software that creates PDF files that can be sent to a printer?
I normally create them within QuarkXPress 8, however, when I upload them to the printer I get a message that the PDFs were not created in the latest PDF software and that a printing a problem may result.
In the past I've experienced my type being substituted by a different font which was all jumbled up and unreadable. The photos were fine.
Thanks for your help.

Thomas and J D, thanks for your replies. I'm not that too well versed on this PDF environment.
I'm not printing my own book, but having it printed at an On Demand Printer (Viovio).
They would prefer PDF 1.6 whatever that is. I was under the impression that PDF is PDF.
I create my books using QuarkXPress 8 with jpegs of photos created in photoshop CS2 in place.
I use just 3 fonts and only 1 weight (style) of each. No option characters or accents.
Garamond LightCondensedItalic
HelveticaNeue LightCond
HelveticaNeue BoldOutline
After I complete my pages I make sure all photos are flattened and check the Usage on photos and fonts.
I convert my jpegs to CMYK so I can see the difference rather than have the printer to the conversion.
I don't use any spot colors, all colors are process colors.
I then save them as Export>Layout As PDF
I check to embed fonts and save as High Quality/High Resolution.
I then use PDF Merge to combine all the inside pages as one PDF document for ease of uploading.
The covers are uploaded separately.
In the past i was using QuarkXPress 6. This is the first book I'm that I'm using Quark 8.
The only difference I see now is that saving the PDF in Quark 8 does not have the option of saving SUBSET FONTS.
I've read that PDF files can be created in Panther, it that true? If yes, how does it work?

How to create PDF files in Arabic?

Hello,
I work with Adobe Acrobat 7.0 Professional to create PDF files, but I can not insert Arabic characters, could you help me please?
Thank you!
(see the attached file)

You need to use Arabic edition of Adobe Acrobat Pro-ME, which allows you to type, view, copy paste Arabic within PDF. To create Arabic PDF you could use a program like Adobe InDesign CS4-ME, and export to PDF in one step! Once the Arabic PDF is created, you can share with anyone, and they can open, view Arabic PDF. If you create PDF correctly, they can type Arabic within the PDF using a free Acrobat ME Reader. Many many options, see http://www.fontworld.com/me/acrobatme.html
