Drag image file from portfolio pdf into image field in reader

I'm new to the Adobe world and this is my first project. I'm not sure if this is even possible, but here's what I'm trying to do...
One document is a PDF portfolio with 200 images (jpg or tif). Each image in the portfolio will have a description. The second document is a PDF form created in LiveCycle. I want to be able to (from Reader with rights enabled) import the image from the portfolio into a field and have that image displayed along with the description all inside the form. Thanks so much in advance!

Hi, I'm using CS4 and would love to be able to drag n drop straight to a new layer in an existing file.
At present when I drag n drop I get a new image in PS. I then have to move this to my existing image. I have tried draging to the tab, the layer box, the image, the blank space, using shift,ctrl & alt.
A simple how to would be nice

  • Can No Longer Drag JPG files From Finder Directly Into .fla Stage?

    For the past six months I have been following a manual process to convert JPG files (exported from InDesign) into SWF files for display advertising assets. 
    Using pre-built FLA files as templates (configured with clicktags):
    Open FLA templates (3 separate files for 3 IAB ad sizes)
    Drag JPG from Finder directly into stage of FLA file, aligned to
    Publish to output folder for renaming
    Today, for no apparent reason, I can no longer drag anything into the stage of any FLA file.  Not just the pre-built templates.  Nothing will drag & drop into an FLA stage. 
    What I have tried:
    Restarted Mac
    Reset Flash preferences
    What I know I can still do:
    Drag files from Finder into the Library, and drag into FLA stage from there
    "File > Import to Stage..."
    This works but because of my naming convention it prompts to import them all each time because Flash sees the sequence
    This is not another step I am willing to contend with for my manual workflow
    Me and my creative team need to process hundreds of assets like this each week, so I'm very anxious to discover why functionality that was working, suddenly stopped.
    Running:
    MacBookPro Retina OS X 10.8.5
    Flash CS6 v. 12.0.2.529

    just want to add my annoyance to the pile here. I can't see any logic behind removing the drag and drop function, especially when adding a new folder is now a multi-step process that is far from obvious. to start a new playlist with local folder content you now need to:enter settingsclick into advanced settings (basically all settings now seem to be "advanced"?)manually find and add the foldergo through the adventure of finding the files in your library.
    -- because they may or may not be listed under "local files" - you won't know because Ctrl+F is also removed. so you have to remember/know what the album you added is called and search for that. if you have a mixed bag of file names from various albums, you're basically shafted; there's no way to find them all with a single search.then you can add them to playlisteta: but wait! there's more! if you have more than 15 files? you're **bleep** out of luck, because the search will only display the first 15 hits among your local files, and then show you spotify library tracks.I can't help but feel as though spotify is doing everything they can to stop us using spotify to listen to local files, as bugs that make it more or less impossible persist through multiple versions - and now features that seem to me to be basic functionality are being removed?mega minus points from someone who's been using spotify since 2008.

  • I am trying to drag and drop one page of a .pdf into another .pdf in Acrobat Reader.  I used to be able to drag and drop from one .pdf to another.

    I am trying to drag and drop one page of a .pdf into another .pdf in Acrobat Reader.  I used to be able to drag and drop from one .pdf to another.

    If you could drag and drop pages before, it wasn't in Reader. You no doubt had Adobe Acrobat (Pro or Standard) which shouldn't be confused with Adobe Acrobat Reader. They recently added Acrobat to the name of Adobe Reader so the confusion about which product you had and/or have is understandable.

  • Dragging photo files from Entourage into iPhoto 09

    I recently upgraded to iPhoto 09 running on Snow Leopard. I believe I was previously running 10.4.9? At any rate, I can no longer drag photo files from an email in Entourage and drop them into the iPhoto icon in the menu bar for import. Now it seems I need to save the files first and then drag and drop. Is there a way to avoid this extra step?

    I realize iPhoto is not a file manager, I've gotten over that part. At this point I would just like it to recognize different folders as different events. I feel like that is a little feature that would go a long way, not only for migrating libraries like in this case, but also in the future.
    I will often create separate folders within my camera's menus for different events, so that when I import the photos it makes it easier to distinguish the different events, even if they span multiple days. If only there was a checkbox next to "imported items from finder" called "treat folders as events when importing" that applied recursively to folders imported.
    Update: I took a leap of faith and dragged a portion of my library into iPhoto (after unchecking that "Autosplit Imported items from Finder" checkbox) and it did exactly what I was hoping it would! Turns out it does apply recursively, which is really handy. I can just drag my entire "Pictures" folder with all of my photos nicely organized into events by folder into iPhoto, and it recognizes each folder as a separate event without having to drag each folder separately! hooray! I ended up doing so with the "Photos" icon selected in the sidebar, I don't know if that made a difference or not. Thanks for pointing me in the right direction!

  • IPad does not let me add files from creative cloud into ps touch.

    When I attempt to add a file from creative cloud into iPad ps touch I receive a connection failure message.  I have tried this on two different wifi locations.  Sync works as I can see the file I uploaded from a desktop computer into creative cloud, but I cannot go to new from creative cloud, choose a file, and click add.  It gives me a connection failure - downloading failed -image cannot be loaded.  please try again.  My desktop computers work fine on the same networks.

    This is happening to me as well and the service department had me on hold for 1 hour and 10 minutes and couldn't help. 

  • Extracting files from Portfolio - problem with outlook email created portfolios

    Currently I have developed a plugin that can extract files from portfolios using:-
    PDNameTree tree = PDDocGetNameTree(pdDoc, ASAtomFromString("EmbeddedFiles"));
    and
    PDFileAttachmentFromCosObj
    But i've noticed with Outlook email created portfolios the above is PDNameTree invalid.  any suggestions?   is it under another atom string or something?
    Thanks,
    Lee.

    ok, found something out here... if I close the doc using AVDocClose then re-open in the code using PDDocOpen then the PDNameTree tree = PDDocGetNameTree(pdDoc, ASAtomFromString("EmbeddedFiles"));  works!!!
    but now I have a problem getting the original pdf open filename.
    usually can get it with below code but it's returning the Folder path + garbage instead. (this only happens with portfolios created by outlook that I have tested)
    There must be a better way of doing this, any ideas? thanks, lee.
    ASFile asFile = PDDocGetFile(pdDoc);
    ASPathName asPathName = ASFileAcquirePathName(asFile);
    char* temp = ASFileSysDIPathFromPath(ASGetDefaultFileSys(), asPathName, NULL);

  • Trying to save the data from the pdf into XML

    I have Adobe Live Cycle 8.0 installed and without the blade for Reader Extension.
    The objective is to save the editable data from the pdf into a XML file
    the code for that is:
    // to fetch the input pdf file from the local drive
    FileInputStream fileInputStream2 = new FileInputStream("C:\\Adobe-Final PDF\\stitched_Letters.pdf");
    Document inPDF = new Document(fileInputStream2);
    Properties connectionProps=new Properties();
    connectionProps.load(new FileInputStream(_propertiesPath));
    //propertiesPath is the path of the properties file
    ServiceClientFactory myFactory = ServiceClientFactory.createInstance(connectionProps);
    FormDataIntegrationClient dataClient = new FormDataIntegrationClient(myFactory);
    Document resultPDF=dataClient.exportData(inPDF);
    What happens is that this ultimate resultPDF does not get the XML with data but rather with empty tags. Does this require Reader Extension?

    //Set connection properties required to invoke LiveCycle ES
    Properties connectionProps = new Properties();
    connectionProps.setProperty("DSC_DEFAULT_EJB_ENDPOINT", "jnp://localhost:1099");
    connectionProps.setProperty("DSC_TRANSPORT_PROTOCOL","EJB");
    connectionProps.setProperty("DSC_SERVER_TYPE", "JBoss");
    connectionProps.setProperty("DSC_CREDENTIAL_USERNAME", "administrator");
    connectionProps.setProperty("DSC_CREDENTIAL_PASSWORD", "password");
    //Create a ServiceClientFactory object
    ServiceClientFactory myFactory = ServiceClientFactory.createInstance(connectionProps);
    //Create a FormDataIntegrationClient object
    FormDataIntegrationClient dataClient = new FormDataIntegrationClient(myFactory);
    //Reference a PDF form from which to export data
    FileInputStream fileInputStream2 = new FileInputStream("C:\\Adobe\\Loan.pdf");
    Document inputPDF = new Document(fileInputStream2);
    //Export data from the form
    Document resultPDF = dataClient.exportData(inputPDF);
    //Save the exported form data as an XML file
    File resultFile = new File("C:\\Adobe\\formData.xml");
    resultPDF.copyToFile(resultFile);
    }catch (Exception e) {
    e.printStackTrace();

  • Can't drag and drop from Windows Explorer into iTunes 10

    HI. I recently upgraded to iTunes 10 and now, it won't let me drag and drop files from Windows explorer into iTunes. Is there a setting I need to turn on to get this to work again? I am running Vista.

    I might be wrong, but ...
    I know Microsoft Office 2011 is Mountain Lion compatible.  In fact, Microsoft released updates to it right around the time of Mountain Lion's release to assure compatibility.
    I do not believe Microsoft Office 2008 is Mountain Lion compatible.

  • Script command to Save File From Portfolio

    This is the script command to save as, app.execMenuItem("SaveAs")
    What's the script command to Save File From Portfolio?
    Do you know?

    Hi,
    We were looking for that before: Exporting XFA PDF from within Portfolio
    Paul exposed the menu items and while I was hopefully that app.execMenuItem("ExtractFilesFromPackage"); would work - but it didn't.
    It transpires that only a few of the app.execMenuItem commands are unrestricted and available.
    So we continue to use the "open"button on the top right of the portfolio to open the file out of the portfolio:
    I think you are stuck with that,

  • How can I read pdf files from LabVIEW with different versions of Acrobat reader?

    How can I read pdf files from LabVIEW with different versions of Acrobat reader?
    I have made a LabVIEW program where I have possibility to read a PDF document.  When I made this LabVIEW program it was Acrobat Reader 5.0.5 that was installed on the PC. Lather when the Acrobat Reader was upgraded to version 6.0, there was an error when VI tries to launch the LabVIEW program. And Later again when we upgraded to Acrobat Reader 7.0.5 I must again do some changes and rebuild the EXE files again
    It isn't so very big job to do the changes in one single LabVIEW program, but we have built a lot of LabVIEW programs so this take time to due changes every time vi update Acrobat Reader. (We have build EXE files.)
    The job is to right click the ActiveX container and Click "Insert ActiveX Object", then I can brows the computer for the new version of acrobat Reader. After this I must rebuild all the "methods" in the Activex call to make the VI executable again.
    Is there a way to build LabVIEW program so I don't have to do this job every time we update Acrobat Reader?
    This LabVIEW program is written in LabVIEW 6.1, but I se the problem is the same in LabVIEW 8.2.

  • Error while reading excel file from application server into internal table.

    Hi experts,
    My requirement is to read an excel file from application server into internal table.
    Hence I have created an excel file fm_test_excel.xls in desktop and uploaded to app server using CG3Z tcode (as BIN file type).
    Now in my program I have used :
    OPEN DATASET v_filename FOR INPUT IN text mode encoding default.
    DO.
    READ DATASET v_filename INTO wa_tab.
    The statement OPEN DATASET works fine but I get a dump (conversion code page error) at READ DATASET statement.
    Error details:
    A character set conversion is not possible.
    At the conversion of a text from codepage '4110' to codepage '4103':
    - a character was found that cannot be displayed in one of the two
    codepages;
    - or it was detected that this conversion is not supported
    The running ABAP program 'Y_READ_FILE' had to be terminated as the conversion
    would have produced incorrect data.
    The number of characters that could not be displayed (and therefore not
    be converted), is 445. If this number is 0, the second error case, as
    mentioned above, has occurred.
    An exception occurred that is explained in detail below.
    The exception, which is assigned to class 'CX_SY_CONVERSION_CODEPAGE', was not
    caught and
    therefore caused a runtime error.
    The reason for the exception is:
    Characters are always displayed in only a certain codepage. Many
    codepages only define a limited set of characters. If a text from a
    codepage should be converted into another codepage, and if this text
    contains characters that are not defined in one of the two codepages, a
    conversion error occurs.
    Moreover, a conversion error can occur if one of the needed codepages
    '4110' or '4103' is not known to the system.
    If the conversion error occurred at read or write of  screen, the file
    name was '/usr/sap/read_files/fm_test_excel.xls'. (further information about
    the file: "X 549 16896rw-rw----201105170908082011051707480320110517074803")
    Also let me know whether this is the proper way of reading excel file from app server, if not please suggest an alternative .
    Regards,
    Karthik

    Hi,
    Try to use OPEN DATASET v_filename FOR INPUT IN BINARY mode encoding default. instead of OPEN DATASET v_filename FOR INPUT IN text mode encoding default.
    As I think you are uploading the file in BIN format to Application server and trying to open text file.
