Ejecting a dvd from a pdf file

A friend gave me a dvd that needed a pdf file to open. Now I cannot find anyway to eject the dvd. How do I get it out of my computer?

I figured it out. Go to the task icon and it offers you the ability to eject.

HT1758 my old imac has no manual button to eject my dvd from the hard drive

I am having trouble ejecting the dvd from my old imac which has no manual button to help me eject manually.

Force eject a stuck cd/dvd
First try the normal methods to remove the disc. Drag its icon to the Trash can in the Dock or select 'Eject' from the File menu.
If you are running a virtual machine, e.g. VMFusion, ensure that the CD is disconnected from the virtual machine. This will sometimes allow the CD to now show up in Mac OS X.
Shut down the computer and start up whilst holding down the mouse button. This may take some time, but keep your finger on the mouse button right up until the disc comes out or the log-in screen has appeared.
If you have Toast Titanium installed on your computer, choose EJECT DISC from the menubar.
Sometimes you can successfully use the eject disc button in iTunes even if the disc is not visible to the Finder
Open Disc utility and choose the disc you wish to eject in the left-hand pane, then click on the Eject button.
Some Macintoshes have a paperclip hole that you can insert a straightened paperclip into, manually triggering the eject mechanism.
Open Terminal and type "drutil tray eject" to eject the disc/tray, and "drutil tray close" to close the tray.
If your computer has an eject button on the keyboard, restart the computer holding down the Option key. When the startup disk selection screen appears, let go of the option key and press the keyboard's eject button.

How to extract text from a PDF file?

Hello Suners,
i need to know how to extract text from a pdf file?
does anyone know what is the character encoding in pdf file, when i use an input stream to read the file it gives encrypted characters not the original text in the file.
is there any procedures i should do while reading a pdf file,
File f=new File("D:/File.pdf");
               FileReader fr=new FileReader(f);
               BufferedReader br=new BufferedReader(fr);
               String s=br.readLine();any help will be deeply appreciated.

First, you set i once, and then loop without ever changing it. So your loop body will execute either 0 times or infinitely many times, writing the same byte every time. Actually, maybe it'll execute once and then throw an ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException. That's basic java looping, and you're going to need a firm grip on that before you try to do anything as advanced as PDF reading. the case.oops you are absolutely right that was a silly mistake to forget that,
Second, what do the docs for getPageContent say? Do they say that it simply gives you the text on the page as if the thing were a simple text doc? I'd be surprised if that's the case.getPageContent return array of bytes so the question will be:
how to get text from this array? i was thinking of :
    private void jButton1_actionPerformed(ActionEvent e) {
        PdfReader read;
        StringBuffer buff=new StringBuffer();
        try {
            read = new PdfReader("d:/getjobid2727.pdf");
            read.getMetaData();
            byte[] data=read.getPageContent(1);
            int i=0;
            while(i>-1){
                buff.append(data);
i++;
String str=buff.toString();
FileOutputStream fos = new FileOutputStream("D:/test.txt");
Writer out = new OutputStreamWriter(fos, "UTF8");
out.write(str);
out.close();
read.close();
} catch (Exception f) {
f.printStackTrace();
"D:/test.txt" hasn't been created!! when i ran the program,
is my steps right?

How to read metadata from a pdf file

hello
i have got xmp sdk for windows.
i want to read the metadata from a pdf file but i cannot
find a way to do so.
i cannot understand that which method to use to open the file whose metadata i want to read.
if someone can tell me by an little code example then it would be great help.
thanks

The sample XAPDumper read metadata in a file (PDF or not) if it is valide. If you want to keep the XAPMeta object, don't delete this object in ProcessSubstring().

I am trying to delete pages from a PDF file. I opened the bookmarks, selected the pages to delete and choose Edit Delete. The selected pages are not deleted. Note: I have to open the file using a passport provided by an external party.

Figuring out how to extract images from a PDF file

Hi,
I'm trying to write a small app that extracts all images from a PDF file. I already wrote a nice parser and it works good but the only problem is that I can't quite figure out from the reference how to decode all images in a PDF file to normal files such as tiffs, jpegs, bmps etc. For now I'm focusing on XObject images and not dealing with inline images.
From what I understand so far just by trying and looking at open sources I figured that if I see a XObject Image with a DCTDecode filter, taking the stream data without doing anything to it and saving it as a jpeg file works. But doing the same to FlateDecoded streams or CCITTFax didn't work.
What is the right way to properly extract the images?

In general you have to
* decode the stream
* extract the pixel data
* use ColorSpace, BitsPerComponent, Decode and Width to unpack pixel
values
* reconstruct an image file format according to its specification
There are no other shortcuts. The DCTDecode shortcut (which doesn't
work for CMYK JPEG files) is just a piece of fantastic good luck.

Just converted a PDF document to Word, none of the graphics from the PDF file show up in the Word document?

Just converted a PDF document to Word, none of the graphics from the PDF file show up in the Word document?
What do I need to do to bring the graphics and exhibits from the PDF file to the Word file?

Hi jackp52432917,
How was that PDF file created? Please see Will Adobe ExportPDF convert both text and form... | Adobe Community
It could be that the PDF file you're converting was created using a third-party application, and it doesn't contain all the information necessary to ensure a clean conversion. Have you had similar troubles converting other PDF files?
Best,

I can't use thunderbird 31.2.0 to send attachement from a pdf file with Acrobat PRO XI

I can't use thunderbird 31.2.0 (Mozilla) to send attachement from a pdf file with Acrobat PRO XI. Each time, Acrobat replies (in french) : "il n'y a pas de client pour la messagerie par défaut". Thunderbird is indicated as "by default" in the list of programs of Windows.
Even if I type my e-mail address, etc. in the account of Acrobat, it doesn't change. Each time, I have to record a PDF file in a folder and return to Thunderbird to send it as attached. It is a too long process, compared with Windows XP with Acrobat Reader or Acrobat 5, I had before.
Would you please help me to explain the process. My OS is Windows 8.1.
Thank you

Thank you for your answer.
What i want to do : to send PDF files as attached documents in a message
generated by thunderbird by my e-mail address [email protected] or
another one I have.
When I introduce my e-mail address under Edit-Preferences-Email
Accounts, Acrobat ask the e-mail account, the password, the IMAP for
ingoing message (and I use POP) and SMTP for outgoing messages. Even I
introduce all the datas, it doesn't change, Acrobat is unable to send
the message. And the process is not convenient, because I need all my
outgoing messages be documented inside Thunderbird.
So, I repeat my request : how can I use thenderbird as program by
default from Acrobat or any other software ?
Thank you for your next message.

How do I remove password protection from a PDF file in Adobe Reader

How do I remove password protection from a PDF file in Adobe Reader?

PDF security can only be implemented or removed using Adobe Acrobat.

I have a document made up of separate PDF files which reside in a folder and are linked to each other via hyperlinks. Each pdf file is set to open with bookmarks displayed, however if I link from one PDF file to another and use the "Previous View" button

I have a document made up of separate PDF files which reside in a folder and are linked to each other via hyperlinks. Each pdf file is set to open with bookmarks displayed, however if I link from one PDF file to another and use the "Previous View" button to navigate back to my starting point the bookmarks are replaced by "page thumbnails". Is there anyway to stop this from happening?

Hi Pusman,
While setting up the links, if you choose to open the file in a new window then you won't face this issue, then you can simply switch to the previous file and bookmark view will remain as it is.
Does that helps with your query?

Rahul

Can I use Visual Basic to covert form user data from multiple .pdf files to a single .csv file?

Can I use Visual Basic to covert form user data from multiple .pdf files to a single .csv file? If so, how?

You can automate Acrobat using IAC (InterApplication Communications), as documented in the Acrobat SDK. Your program could loop through a collection of PDFs, load them in Acrobat, extract the form data from each, and generate a CSV file that contains the data.
Acrobat can also do this with its "Merge Data Files into Spreadsheet" function, but this is a manual process.
