Error (15) in a document, readable by other pdf viewers

Hi all,
I am using pdfedit, an open source tool, on ubuntu x86-64, to insert pages from several pdf files into a master pdf file.
Now, in the resultant master pdf file - most of the pages are inserted correctly, and the document, approx. 190 pages, is viewable in acrobat reader, no problems.
But, 3 pages, having 3 heavy plots, when viewed with acrobat reader, both windows/linux, both version 9.4 and version X on windows, all fail with the message
"There was a problem reading this document (15)".
Now - the pdf file is completely viewable in other viewers, e.g., foxit on windows, okular, evince, etc., in ubuntu.
Moreover, the original pdf which has these plots is also completely viewable in all viewers, including acrobat reader.
So - question is what's wrong with acrobat reader?
How do I fix it?
I would also need to print this file as a book - and therefore, the printing sevice would most probably use acrobat reader or other acrobat products.
So - it would be better for me as well....
Thanx for any help, in advanced,
Jigal.

Hi,

Also, is it a 64 bit machine? check the target platform of the application and set it accordingly.
Few things to try
- Check if the reports exist and are accessible by the application (permissions, filepath,)
- Do not publish the report using the publish option, just as a test copy them manually.
See if this helps,

Clearscan Errors in Preview and other pdf viewers

I scan a lot of documents and have started using the ClearScan OCR option. This produces very good quality scans and very small file sizes, but I've been running into problems when I try to read my pdfs in Preview or other pdf readers. If I open a ClearScanned pdf in Preview and try to copy and paste some of the text, it pastes just fine. If I save the pdf in Preview, however, and then try to copy and paste text, the result is something like this: "␣␣␣␣␣ ␣␣␣". The PDF still looks fine, it doesn't change its visual appearance, but the OCR is no longer correct. This is a big problem because I use several other pdf readers to read and annotate my PDFs, and any time I save a ClearScanned PDF I lose the functionality of scanned text (since I can no longer copy and paste or even search the PDF since all the letters have been replaced with "␣"). Has anyone else had any problems with ClearScan? Is ClearScan only compatible with Adobe, or is there any way to save a ClearScanned PDF so that it will work correctly with other PDF viewers? Thank you!

I have not tried it, but I've seen posted in another thread that one of the Preflight options in AA9 allows you to embedd the fonts created by the ClearScan process. This might fix your problem. You just have to figure out how to use Preflight!
I just tried this - it's the "Embed fonts" option under the PDF fixups category. I can't tell if it will do what you need though, as I don't use Preview or any other PDF viewer. It did seem to embed fonts that were previously not embedded, though (a) they still didn't show up in the PDF Optimizer dialog, only in the document properties dialog, and (b) it seems like the ClearScan were embedded in the first place, even before I ran this Preflight.

Preview.App does not find text in pure text pdf works in other PDF viewers

Hi I am using reportlab an open source python based pdf generating package to generate pdf reports.
The generated pdfs are searchable using Adobe acrobat and Google -Gmails built in pdf viewer . However in Preview.App the text seems to be only recognized as individual characters . For eg the text "hello world" will not match hello or world , but typing just h into the search bar will show up matched text as "h el l o" . So although visibly the text appears as a single word , semantically the words just seem to be composed of one or two characters.
Only Preview.App seems to have a problem with the generated pdf. Adobe Acrobat ( Mac and Windows) , Google-Gmail pdf-view , Evince-Gnome-PDF viewer ( Linux) dont have any problem with finding the text in the PDF documents generated.
I have a thread in the reportlab user forum discussing the issue (see http://two.pairlist.net/pipermail/reportlab-users/2009-August/008643.html). ANd the problem definitely seems to be with Preview.App . The pdf (sample see example text in corner) is available at this url ( http://s3.amazonaws.com/code-itch/searchtext.pdf)
The app is targeted at scientist Mac users . And I want to have the pdf reports searchable and indexed by spotlight , so getting this working is very important for me.
Your help is greatly appreciated
Hari

The posts on the reportlab newsgroup suggest that
"> If the preview is actually rendering the pdf and then searching, the 0
degrees case should be searchable. If that's the way the search is happening
then it's no surprise that the search should fail if the rendered letters
are at 90deg." -Robin Becker
Test cases show that search fails completely at rotations of 90 , succeed partially at rotations of 45, succeed fully at rotations of 0.
So , is there a way to prevent Preview from only searching the final rendered PDF. The pdf I am complaining about are searched fine in the many other PDF readers I tested that probably handle search differently.

Interactive form on mobile devices and other PDF viewers

Hello! I made an interactive PDF, which i first made in InDesign. It's basically built up like this: There are fields with a picture and text which go to transparency 0% when i go over them with the mouse and then you can see the background. I dind't have problems in Acrobat Pro and the Reader on PC and MAC, but when i open the PDF on a mobile device, even Adobe Reader, i can't use these effects. When i tap just short on the screen it marks the field for like a second and when i leave my finger longer on the touchscreen it shows me some options like making a signature and so on.. Is there any way to get this interactive effect going on mobile devices? And could it be that the interactive form only works with Adobe software? because I tried it with a preinstalled version of a Windows 8 PDF Viewer and the only thing that worked were the links i set to some websites.

hi Vidyadhar,
The Adobe Reader was installed in handheld. It can open standalone (offline) pdf document. But it would appear error when display dynamic generated adobe form in browser.
Thanks.

Weng

You need to get a new copy of the PDF.

Is there a way to flip the pages in a .pdf so that all of the text is readable (in other words all documents are right side up)? I have Adobe Acrobat X and am using Windows 8.1.

I have a pdf with over 2,000 pages, many of which are sideways. I do not want to manually flip each one (few are next to each other). Is there a way to automate the function so that all sideways or upside down text pages are righted?

Error on update of document stored in content server

Error on update of document stored in content server
On a regular basis (but not reproducible) we find that after updating a document, it is deleted from content server (or at least it cannot be retrieved). These problems have only been experienced since we switched to using content server as our storage repository, as opposed to R/3.
We create and maintain documents through a bespoke transaction, which calls standard SAP functions BDS_BUSINESSDOCUMENT_CREA_TAB and cl_bds_document_set=>update_with_table.
Whilst the errored documents are listed in the BDS via transaction OAOR (business document navigator), an error is received when you try to display it (in our case an MS-Word error indicating file/pathname invalid).
We are satisfied that file/pathname are valid and find that this occurs occasionally when a document has been updated. It appears that the document has been deleted.
This bespoke transaction has been running successfully for almost two years, and these problems have only been experienced after switching to content server as a storage repository (as opposed to R3 previously). Has anyone else experienced these problems?
We are running :
R/3 Enterprise 620,
SAP HTTP Content Server Version 6.30 Patch 13
SAPDB version 7.3.0.54

Hi Sonny,
To check the connectivity between your content server and Workstation and SAP Server.
Pls goto the command prompt of your workstation
give the command like this example.
C:\>Ping 117.123.45.201
you will get the reply from the server. here 117.123.45.201 is your content server IP.
If you are getting the reply then it means that your contentserver and workstation are connected propely.
Like that pls check the connectivity between your systems.
Pls check the hosts file of your systems also.
If the hosts file entry is not maintained, you can check-out file from content server but you cannot check-in the original.
Pls let me know what kind of error Message you are getting?
From where you are trying to check-in the Original? From the DIR screen or from CAD Desktop screen?

MRK

Web Analysis 9.3.1: Error occured while opening document. Document ID = {0}

Hi Experts,
I am having an issue while opening a web analysis dashboard report. When I try opening it, web analysis runs for about 15 mins & then throws following error:
Error occured while opening document. Document ID = {0}
The report opens with its header having company log & two buttons, but data grid remains empty.
The source of Grid is Essbase. The tunning parameters in Essbase.cfg file are in place.
Could anyone please through more observation on this issue. Let me know if any further information is needed!.
Kindly suggest me any way to resolve it.
Thanks,
Krishan

The isapi (if you use one) timeout setting might be smaller than the time essbase needs to retrieve te information.
but most probably the analysis applicationserver jre heapsize is either to small or needs to much time to allocate it. Be sure to increase heapsize and set max equal to min (try 800mb, if your hardware has that resource)

Hi Natesh,
Thanks for your reply to my query posted in this forum. Please find my inline answers between asterisk to your questions:
Whatz the source of your Grid? Relational SQL Query (OR) A spreadsheet with Essbase database connection file?
* Yes, the source is Essbase.*
If source is Essbase, it seems- Outline might've got altered when you're trying to refresh the report.
* The outline was in tandem when we tried running this report in WebAnalysis. This outline & WebAnalysis report which is in Dev Server is a replica of the one in Test Server where it runs fine. *
If source is based on a Relational SQL query, chances are that- Query is no longer valid.
* NA as this statement is NOT applicable to our source.*
If it's Essbase, it's also likely that- It ran out of time while fetching the data from Essbase. You may try playing around with the parameters in Essbase.cfg file.
* This might be one of the causes, but I double checked the all the tunning parameters in Essbase.cfg file in place.*
Could you please through more observation on this issue. Let me know if any further information is needed!.
Thanks for your time.

Heap space error while creating XML document from Resultset

I am getting Heap space error while creating XML document from Resultset.
It was working fine from small result set object but when the size of resultset was more than 25,000, heap space error
I am already using -Xms32m -Xmx1024m
Is there a way to directly write to xml file from resultset instead of creating the whole document first and then writing it to file? Code examples please?
here is my code:
stmt = conn.prepareStatement(sql);
result = stmt.executeQuery();
result.setFetchSize(999);
Document doc = JDBCUtil.toDocument(result, Application.BANK_ID, interfaceType, Application.VERSION);
JDBCUtil.write(doc, fileName);
public static Document toDocument(ResultSet rs, String bankId, String interfaceFileType, String version)
    throws ParserConfigurationException, SQLException {
        DocumentBuilderFactory factory = DocumentBuilderFactory.newInstance();
        DocumentBuilder builder = factory.newDocumentBuilder();
        Document doc = builder.newDocument();
        Element results = doc.createElement("sims");
        results.setAttribute("bank", bankId);
        results.setAttribute("record_type", "HEADER");
        results.setAttribute("file_type", interfaceFileType);
        results.setAttribute("version", version);
        doc.appendChild(results);
        ResultSetMetaData rsmd = rs.getMetaData();
        int colCount = rsmd.getColumnCount();
        String columnName="";
        Object value;
        while (rs.next()) {
            Element row = doc.createElement("rec");
            results.appendChild(row);
            for (int i = 1; i <= colCount; i++) {
                columnName = rsmd.getColumnLabel(i);
                value = rs.getObject(i);
                Element node = doc.createElement(columnName);
                if(value != null)
                    node.appendChild(doc.createTextNode(value.toString()));
                else
                    node.appendChild(doc.createTextNode(""));
                row.appendChild(node);
        return doc;
public static void write(Document document, String filename) {
        //long start = System.currentTimeMillis();
        // lets write to a file
        OutputFormat format = new OutputFormat(document); // Serialize DOM
        format.setIndent(2);
        format.setLineSeparator(System.getProperty("line.separator"));
        format.setLineWidth(80);
        try {
            FileWriter writer = new FileWriter(filename);
            BufferedWriter buf = new BufferedWriter(writer);
            XMLSerializer FileSerial = new XMLSerializer(writer, format);
            FileSerial.asDOMSerializer(); // As a DOM Serializer
            FileSerial.serialize(document);
            writer.close();
        } catch (IOException ioe) {
            ioe.printStackTrace();
        //long end = System.currentTimeMillis();
        //System.err.println("W3C File write time :" + (end - start) + " " + filename);
    }

you can increase your heap size..... try setting this as your environment variable.....
variable: JAVA_OPTS
value: -Xms512m -Xmx1024m -XX:PermSize=256m -XX:MaxPermSize=512m

Getting error while uploading a document in a library

Hi,
I'm getting a weird error while uploading the document in the library. And I don't get it all the times but most of the times.
It reads:
The file <library name>/<file name> has been modified by i:0#.<user-id> on <datetime stamp>
How to resolve this ? I have referred many articles on this one, but none helped.
Thanks for your response in advance.
Regards

Hi Prajk,
Based on your description, I recommend to check if there are any ItemAdded event receiver or workflows which are triggered when an item is created to update the document properties in the library.
If there is any ItemAdded event receiver on the library, I recommend to wait for ItemAdded to finish before the ListFieldIterator control residing on EditForm.aspx loads (It’s the ListFieldIterator which displays the Item’s fields ).
http://blogs.msdn.com/b/manuj/archive/2009/09/22/itemadded-event-on-document-library-the-file-has-been-modified-by-on-error.aspx
If there is any workflow on the library, I recommend to add a Pause for Duration step at the beginning of the workflows.
If above cannot work, please check ULS log for detailed error message.
For SharePoint 2013, by default, ULS log is at C:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\Web Server Extensions\15\LOGS.
Best regards.
Thanks
