Download of documents

I am trying to create a download of pdf or other documents from the web site I am creating.  I would appreciate very much receiving some help how this is done.

Hi Jon, I follow what you are saying in principal.  Are you aware of any tutorial or step by step process that I can follow.

It's pretty simple, you just create a link to the .pdf file and the viewer's computer will either display it in the browser (if they have the browser plug-in) or download it to their desktop.
1. Add the .pdf to your site
2. Highlight the text or image you want to use as a link to the .pdf
3. Add the location of the .pdf in the Link text box of the Properties inspector.
That's it.
You can't force a browser to open a .pdf and display it, but you can force it to download it by zipping the file first. The user would then have to unzip the file before they could see it.

  • "Downloads" and "Documents" Stacks in the Dock  10.6 Snow Leopard

    Is there a way to get the little blue folder icons that say "Downloads" and "Documents" to appear on the stacks in the dock instead of a thumbnail type icon of the first document or download in the stack? 10.6 Snow Leopard.  The Apple Web page describing "Stacks" as a new part of Snow Leopard shows them.

    Yes, right click (control click) on the icon and select Display as Folder.

  • Arching of files is gone from the downloads and documents folder

    The arching list of files is gone when rolling over the downloads and documents folder. I removed the downloads folder by accident yesterday from the dock. Once I found it, I replaced it back on the dock and now the arching of files is gone on both folders. I have them as lists by date. I have restarted my MacBook Pro several times, clicked on the dock and properties and nothing seems to work. Does anyone know how to get it back? Are there any settings that I am missing?. Thanks!

    Right click on the folder in the Dock (or hold down the Control key and click on it if you have a one-button mouse), and choose "Stack" under the "Display as" section, and "Fan" under the "View content as" section in the resultant contextual menu. You can also choose how they are sorted from this menu as well.

  • Is there some way of getting adobe to work without having to download a document first, then adobe will show the pages.

    Hello,
    I am trying to find out what I can do, to get adobe to open up a pdf file so that I can read all pages, without having to download the document first. I get the first page only; then I download and have access to all pages. Then I delete. Seems like such a long process. Is there another way? Do I need to download a different adobe?
    Thanks for your help.

    How are you seeing your document on iCloud from your laptop? Web browser, or OS X Pages open dialog?
    If you have MS Word or .pages formatted files parked on iCloud, the web interface will not permit their download as PDF, and in fact, PDF is an inactive option in that download menu for these word processing files. There is no copy facility available, but duplicate functionality exists from the iWork category within the iCloud web presence.
    If you have Pages v4.2 or later installed on your (assumption: Mac) laptop, launch Pages and in the open file dialog, select iCloud on the dialog toolbar. Now, press and hold the option key as you drag and drop a copy of our document from iCloud to your desktop. The reverse works also.
    See if you can open that document on your laptop now.

    using (SPWeb mi_web = oSiteCollection.OpenWeb())
    string path = System.Web.HttpContext.Current.Server.MapPath(fileName);
    string name = System.IO.Path.GetFileName(path);

    Hi,
    Here is a blog about how to call a Java EE Web Service from a .Net Client for your reference:

    If you want to download a document from a Sharepoint library, we can use the REST API provided by SharePoint and use Apache HttpComponents in Java.
    http://www.rgagnon.com/javadetails/java-get-document-sharepoint-library.html
    About how to upload file using jaxrs webservice in C# code, I suggest you post it to C# or ASP.Net Forum, you will get more help and confirmed answers from there.

  • I cannot download word documents. Error message says assocated helper application does not exist.

    Tried downloading word document from email. error message Associated helper application does not exist

    To open a document you must have installed an Android application for it. The file is downloaded but can be opened with Firefox, but with the specific app from Android.
    Try installing a documents app and for sure it will work.

  • How to print a downloaded color document in black or gray scale

    I have Adobe Reader 9; Windows Vista Home Premium; HP Officejet Pro 8000 Wireless printer.  I have downloaded a document that is pre-set to print in color.  I want to print it in black or gray scale.  I click on the printer icon for the printing pop up.  When I click on the Properties bar to make the request for black or gray scale, nothing happens.  What steps can I take to convert the pre-set color download to be printed in black or gray scale?  Thanks!

    I have only had the experience when I have downloaded a link from within an email to my Hotmail account when the download has already been set up in color.  To date, I have not had that problem with Word.       There are specifically two situations regarding two different monthly emailed newsletters.  This is through Internet Explorer 8; Windows Vista Home Premium.  (I will not use Internet Explorer 9.  It causes blocks for routine procedures, especially involving my Hotmail account--such as not being able initially to download a normal attachment or, if downloaded, not being able to print a normal download attachment.)     However, after I sent out my request for help, I switched to Mozilla Firefox and was able to print the "color" download in black right away because the Preferences bar responded as it should.  (Through Internet Explorer 8, regarding this particular link/download/attachment, the printing pop up had a Properties bar.  However, I am aware that, in some other pop up formats, there are both a Properties bar and a Preferences bar to choose from.)       I have Mozilla Firefox as a backup because, sometimes, I have to resort to it to download email attachments (whether black or color) coming from the east coast when they will not download through Internet Explorer 8.  (I am near the geographic center of the US.)     Thank you for your interest in my concern.  I will gladly accept any advice regarding being able to print an email attachment/link color download in black when using Internet Explorer 8!  Does it depend on how the link attachment is set up or what the link attachment is??

  • Download iWork documents from iCloud to Mac in Pages 5.0 and Numbers 3.0

    Does anyone know how to download iWork documents from iCloud to Mac, most specifically from Pages 5.0 and Numbers 3.0. It seems that Apple have taken away the ability to do so, as in the past I believe there was a download button... All I am trying to do is download the document to attach and send via Gmail.
    Extremely frustrating as I can't find any discussion surrounding this problem.

    Have you tried right-clicking the document to get an option to download it.

  • Adobe Reader XI 11.0.06 and IE10 enhanced protected mode. Downloaded PDF documents do not open

    I have Reader XI 11.0.06 installed with IE10. If I enable Enhanced Protected Mode via group policy, the plugin loads documents inside the browser window. However, if the site forces the browser to download the document, EPM blocks the Reader plugin. The address bar in IE shows that it is trying to load the PDF from the IE cache.
    Is there a fix for this issue?

    Having done some more research on this, I just can't see that the advertised support for enhanced protected mode actually exists. Anyone got it working?

  • Restrict download of documents from a Document library

    Hi,
    I am working on a trial version of SharePoint online E3. I enabled IRM on it with a hope that it will restrict "DOWNLOAD" of documents from a document library itself. However to my bad, it seems it allows downloading... with imposed restrictions. 
    Can anybody help me in this? I need only some of the users to be able to download/print/copy documents from library and NOT all of them. Rest can only view the document. Is it possible in SP Online? 
    Is it possible in SharePoint 2010 or is it the same in here as well?

    Hi 
    yes,sharepoint online we can Use IRM. please refer yes,

  • Can I add a downloadable pdf document to my epub?

    Can I add a downloadable pdf document to my epub?

    Yes.  If you want the pdf file to download immediately when the link is selected and not be displayed in the browser, zip/compress the pdf file (Control (right)-Click on the pdf file and select Compress from the contextual menu) and link to it in the Inspector/Link/Hyperlink pane witn the Link To: A File option.
    A second option is to zip the pdf file and upload it manually to your website server.  Then link to it in the same preference pane but use An External Page option. The URL would be http://URL TO FILE ON SERVER/File _Name.pdf.zip

  • Lost ability to download PDF documents with upgrade to 4.0

    Before upgrading to 4.0 could go to a website and click on a document, then pick a specific page to download to Adobe Reader 8 and get a clean PDF document. After upgrading could go to the same site, download a document and the site would show that it was transmitted to me but I would only get a blank page. Have downloaded the (what I believe to be) correct add-on to 4.0 for PDF reception.

    There is a Mac Version of Adobe Acrobat which does this. There was a hiatus when there was some incompatibility between the MacOS, QuickTime and Adobe Acrobat of the time, but as far as I know, everything works fine today.
    You may have problems starting with a Pages document though. I think InDesign is the best starting point.

  • This.submitForm fails to download target document

    after some probs with certificate installation (http://www.adobeforums.com/webx/.59b87b22/3) I can now successfully submit form information via this.submitForm in a Linux (Ubuntu) environment.
    I had a problem where the following was displayed: "Cannot process response due to unknown content type". This was a MIME issue: running install_browser_plugin resolved this: I ensured the plugin was present in firefox. I also attempted to open an fdf via firefox and this routes correctly to Acrobat and displays a pdf.
    The problem I am experiencing now is when submitting I get the following messages displayed:
    1. Preparing for Submit.
    2. Sending/Receiving data
    3. Download target document...
    The target document is never downloaded and I cannot view the success/failure response.
    What am I doing wrong?

    As per confirmation from Ben, this issue is solved now. In essence, it was same as SSL Issue reported earlier by Ben.
    Confirmation comments -    "Now I can submit and receive responses from Linux. You have resolved this problem!"
    A workaround has been posted at http://blogs.adobe.com/acroread/  ( SSL Error on Linux Reader - Resolution)

  • If I post a Word document on my website, I want to share the link. Firefox won't let me do that. It forces me to download the document. It won't go to the link. How can I get it to do that? Can I?

    My question was already detailed: If I post a Word document on my website, I want to share the link. Firefox won't let me do that. It forces me to download the document. It won't go to the link. How can I get it to do that? Can I?
    Here's an example. I want Firefox to go to this link:
    http://www.therevdrcharleswallen.com/CV2008.doc
    It won't. Explorer will go there, but Firefox won't. I don't want to open an extra document. I want to visit the site in my browser.

    Firefox can't handle MS Office documents and you will have to open such a file in an external Office program of viewer.
