Email a file

Okay I have read lots of very confusing information about emailing a pdf from a form. All I know is mine does not work. It says acrobat is unable to connect to my email program when the email button is clicked. I am sure I need to set that up somehow, but I have no idea how to do that. Is it possible to set up a email based program such as Yahoo or gmail? Or will it have to be outlook? Through out my search for information on this topic I came across the different methods of using email in a PDF. I would love to be able to have a dropdown populated with a list of email addresses based on a radiobutton selection. Baby steps though for me. First, How do I set the email up? Through livecycle or through reader? Thanks for your help

Hi,
First if you are trying to 'submit the form as a PDF', then this will work in Reader IF the form has been Reader Enabled before it is sent out. More info here:
http://www.assuredynamics.com/index.php/category/portfolio/deploying-forms-in-acrobat-and- reader/
The submit be email should work with your default email client. I have found that this works best with Outlook. What email client are you using?
If you are trying the button when Previewing the form in LC Designer, then it is likely not to work. Try clicking the submit button when you have the form open in Acrobat.
When it comes to online email services, like gmail, then you cannot set up a submit button that will 'talk' to that online email service. The user will have to save the form to their computer and manually attach it to an email.
Here are a couple of email solutions (depending on the version of Acrobat/Reader you are using):

    How can I sav an emailed .mov file to my iPad?

    Yes there is, if you hold down the attachment widget in the email once the video is downloaded, it will give you a series of options to save it to, including camera roll.

  • How do I create a slide where users can upload a file to server or email a file?

    Could anyone guide me in how I could go about creating a slide where users can either email a file or upload it to my server?
    Any help would be greatly appriciated...
    Steve

    Hello,
    Welcome to Adobe Forums.
    I am not sure how you can Upload a file, you might need a Javascript.
    You can create a slide and a button of that slide can call the default Email client (MS Outlook, Outlook Express....)
    1) On  you Slide insert a button (Insert -> Standard Object -> Button
    2) Double Click on that button and select "Open URL or file" for On Success (Under Properties Inspector)
    3) Write "mailto:[email protected]" in the URL box (For Example : [email protected])
    4) Publish the result, when you click on the button, it will call the default mail client.
    Screenshot :
    Note : This might not work if you have a Network Security which do not allow calling Mail Client through a Script (Clicking of Button calls the script)
    Thanks,

    I have Windows 7, Microsoft Outlook and PSE 13. I have used the "Share photos as embedded images" feature frequently, but today when I went to use it, it wasn't there, only the option to send email with files attached. How do I get back the ability to send emails with photos embedded. I like adding the frames and backgrounds and I think it's easier for recipients to look at the photos. Thanks for any suggestions of things to try.

    I had a similar problem in that my wife's iphone 5 could not send pics with imessage.  Had to set the settings to default to SMS or whatever.  After laboring many hours on the web I coincidentally was on the phone with the internet people to question my internet speed.  They changed the router channel, which is something that I am capable of doing myself.  After that, the pics go over imessage.  My own Iphone didn't have the problem.  We are both latest IOS 7.0.6.

  • After upgrading to ios6 my iphone will not open .xls files in emails with the default viewer. Is there a fix for this? The same emailed .xls files still open on my ipad using ios5 while viewing email like they did on my iphone prior to upgrading.

    After upgrading to ios6 my iphone will not open .xls files in emails with the default viewer. Is there a fix for this? The same emailed .xls files still open on my ipad using ios5 while viewing email like they did on my iphone prior to upgrading. I have no special software like numbers or anything else installed on either device. Just using the default viewer provided by apple for viewing email.

    The attachment is an .xls excel 97-2003 spreadsheet. I viewed the file in the email and did not edit it with any software. I can forward the file to anyone that is may want to check it out to see if they can help me. I was wondering if there was some way of forcing another ios6 install on my phone and maybe that would solve it.
    Is there anyone out there that is viewing .xls files in email using ios6 w/o any other software installed like numbers or any other add ons? I am not upgrading my ipad from ios5 to ios6 so I can still continue to view the emails on my ipad. Is there an email viewer .xls plug-in that will be availablle in the next ios6 update?

  • SAP version 4.7  Email pdf file that is password protected.

    Hi Gurus,
    We have a requirement:
      Email pdf file that is password protected.
      Once the user receives the email,  clicks on the attached pdf file,
         it should ask the password.  Note that Password value should come from SAP.
    What we have done is get the spool number and by using function module CONVERT_ABAPSPOOLJOB_2_PDF, it converts the spool document to pdf.
    On this function module, there are no parameters to make pdf as password protected and
      also include the password.  This is the problem.
    Question:
       (a) Is there a way to make pdf password protected that will be emailed?
            What function modules, etc to be used?  (sample coding if available)
       (b) Somebody mentioned the that Adobe LiveCycle Policy Server should be installed together with SAP.
            If this is installed, how then would be the abap coding be in order to make the pdf password
                protected?
            How is the new policy server gonna be linked to SAP and how do the abap coding gonna be?
               (sample abap coding if available)
    Thanks.

  • Opened a bogus email *.zip file from amazon that put two files in my downloads folder OSX 10.8

    Hi
    Can anyone advise my next steps to take, I accidentally opened a bogus email *.zip file attachment from 'Amazon" It unzipped an put two files in my downloads folder one appeared to be a *.exe file. They were deleted immediately along with the email.
    Now I am terrified that there is something lurking on my system...trojan/ keylogger/ virus..
    I am no expert so can anyone give me help!
    My mac is 8 months old running OSX 10.8 with latest updates.
    Thanks Mick

    Thank you both, you have put my mind at rest.
    Normally I am red hot at intercepting bogus emails, not today it would appear!
    I actually was in the process of deleting it and double clicked the file by complete accident, and in a flash it had opened up and put the files in the folder, I spent the rest of the afternoon panicing and reading all forums blogs etc..
    Actually Thomas I found your blog and took some good tips from it, one of them was to switch java off immediately.
    Thanks again

  • Iphoto won't share photos by email, share file won't open.

    iphoto won't share photos by email, share file won't open. what do I do?

    Remember: we cannot see your machine. There are 9 different versions of iPhoto and they run on 8 different versions of the Operating System. The tricks and tips for dealing with issues vary depending on the version of iPhoto and the version of the OS.  So to get help you need to give as much information as you can. Basic things like :
    - What version of iPhoto.
    - What version of the Operating System.
    - Details. As full a description of the problem as you can. For instance: 'iPhoto won't export' is best explained by describing how you are trying to export, and so on.
    - History: Is this going on long? Has anything been installed or deleted?
    - Are there error messages?
    - What steps have you tried already to solve the issue.
    - Anything unusual about your set up? Or how you use iPhoto?
    Anything else you can think of that might help someone understand the problem you have.

  • Email attachment file names

    I have a sender mail adapter that picks up emails with file attachments from a mail box using the IMAP transport protocol.
    The mail adapter passes processing onto the PayloadSwapBean and then onto a customised module that processes the file attachment (a CSV file).
    When I use the messaging system i.e. http://xiserver:port/MessagingSystem/monitor/monitor.jsp
    I can see that Content-Type includes the attachment's file name:-
    Content-Type: application/octet-stream;name="INV_5016888091848_20060912_00001.csv"
    Content-Disposition: attachment;filename="MailMessage.bin"
    Content-Description: MailMessage
    In my customised module I would like to pick up this file name so that it can be stored in a database table. I have attempted to pick up this file name from the payload using the "getContentType" method of the "XMLPayload" class but this only returns "application/octet-stream" and does not include the file name.
    Does anyone know how I can get hold of the above file name using the Adapter Framework API? Or, alternatively, by some other method/approach.
    Any help on this would be greatly appreciated.

    Please check for Adapter -Specific Message Attributes
    ->To store adapter attributes in the message header of the XI message, set the Use Adapter-Specific Message Attributes indicator.
    The following attributes are added to the XI message header if the sender makes them available, and if you choose Variable Transport Binding.
    To transfer further header fields, set the relevant indicator. You can then store the following attributes and their values in the XI message header:

  • Burst by email - specify file name

    Hello All,
    I have implemented the bursting by email functionality for one of my reports. I have tested this report. Everything is working fine. I am able to receive emails with file attachements.
    The problem is the attached file names are prepended with some xmlp_12345678_ .
    Ex: if the building_id is 'AB0001' , the file name in the attachement is xmlp_23456789_AB0001_1.xls.
    I would like to know is there any way to get it as AB0001.xls.
    I tried to give bldg.building_id||'.xls' as one of the parameters in bursting definition. But, looks like its ignoring it. The file attachment is still prepended with some xmlp and some auto generated number.
    Here is the bursting definition
    select distinct bldg.building_id KEY,
    'Report_with_status' TEMPLATE,
    'RTF' TEMPLATE_FORMAT,
    'en-US' LOCALE,
    'EXCEL' OUTPUT_FORMAT,
    'EMAIL' DEL_CHANNEL,
    'my email address' PARAMETER1,
    null PARAMETER2,
    'my email address' PARAMETER3,
    'Report for '||bldg.building_id PARAMETER4,
    'Please find the attached report' PARAMETER5,
    'true' PARAMETER6,
    'Do_Not_Reply email address' PARAMETER7,
    from building bldg
    Any ideas are greatly appreciated.
    Thanks in advance.

  • I cannot open all email attachment files(pdf, doc, etc) in Mail on my New IPad.

    I cannot open all email attachment files(pdf, doc, etc) in Mail on my New IPad. I installed all viewer apps but I am not able to click and hold to select the option of viewer apps to open the files. I dont get the "open with" option when I click on the arrow in the menu bar. I can open attachment files on G-mail website from Safari though. It is really ridiculous that I cannot open the files from Apple Mail app! What's wrong with it!!

    We cannot possible know what's wrong with it. But we can offer suggestions that might help.
    Try resetting the iPad - its like rebooting a computer.
    Reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.
    This might help as well.
    You can try resetting all settings. Settings>General>Reset>Reset All Settings. You will have to enter all of your app preferences and device settings again
