Excel file trucation in PDF output file

Having problem with PDF output file as the imported EXCEL table gets truncated - approx. the left 1/2 upper left corner is the only part of the table that appears in the PDF file. Master file displays correctly in PM. No apparent memory issue so any thoughts? Thanks.

A bit more info please.
Windows or Mac, and which versions?
Which version of PM?
How did you import the speadsheet into PM?
How did you create the PDF?
Cropping and displacement of meta-files when creating PDFs from PM is well known and there are work-arounds.
The long term answer is move on to InDesign.

I am not able to modify the text in pdf output file using pdf editor

Hi,
We have upgrade the xml 5.6.1 in server level. After upgrading this, we are not able to modify the pdf output file. Previously we used to modify text and delete text in pdf file which is generated by oracle Application. As of now we cann't upgrade higher version. Can you suggest what to do?.

Check the xdo configuration file option in the user guides. There should be options that allow / disallow modifying text specifically. If you are in EBS, you should be able to change the configuration file options from the XML Publisher Administrator UI.

Same with reports 6.

Name of PDF output file?

Within Adobe Output Desinger I have set PDF as my presentment target. How do I define what the name of the PDF output file will be and where it is saved?

The "-zdirpath,u[.ext]" parameter on the ^job statement or on the definition for the jfmerge task to create the PDF is what you are looking for. The ",u" option tells the system to create a random name to avoid overwriting duplicates but if you have a specific name in mind, this could look like "-zc:\folder\filename.ext". Also, include the "-aspPDF" parameter to tell jfmerge that the PDF presentment target is to be used.

When I open up an e-mail attachment a box pops up PRINT TO FILE below that line OUTPUT FILE NAME with an empty line for the file name vs. simply going to my default printer?

when I open up an e-mail attachment a box pops up PRINT TO FILE below that line OUTPUT FILE NAME with an empty line for the file name vs. simply going to my default printer?

Make sure that '''''Print to File''''' isn't selected in the native print dialog box ''(see screenshot below)'' middle-right, and make sure your Printer is selected at the top of that dialog box.

File Information in PDF Output

Does anyone know why InDesign is putting the file info outside of the crop marks? Screen shot below:
We have an outside slug area of 24 pts defined and at first I thought it was going to that but it is actually about 4pts IN from that. We've also done that same thing with the slug area on other files but they always put the file info on the inside of the crop marks.
I think it might just be that the small trim trim (just 4.25 inches wide) is simply too small. When I output as spreads, it puts the info inside the crops on the spread pages but not on the single pages.
However, when I output as spreads I don't get the file name from CS3, only the page number as shown in the below screen shot.
Does anyone know if not including the filename is a bug in CS3? CS5 seems to output the filename as I would expect.
For anyone who cares: On a couple of series we do we take InDesign's PDF output and manipulate it for various things, sometimes cropping the sides of the pages tight to the crop marks. With InDesign putting the file info outside the crops we can't do that without lopping off the crop marks.
Any input would be greatly appreciated.
Ken

OK so I've narrowed it down a bit. All of this in CS3.
Turns out that when you export a single file to PDF spreads it includes the filename, but it DOESN'T include the filename (only page numbers) when you choose "Export Selected documents to PDF..." from the book fly-out.
Again, any suggestion to get that filename to come out would be apprecited.
Thanks!
Ken

Is there a pdf output file size limitation?

Hi,
I have an rtf invoice template that worked fine in test environments. Now that it has been migrated to Production, it works except for this one invoice that has created a meta data XML file that is 2 MB, which is not that large, is it? Additionally, I cannot open the metadata file in html, it just hangs, but can in a text editor, so I have been chopping up the file into smaller pieces and can get pdf output of around 175 pages worth.
I've tried it with different sets of data from this file, and they work, just not the whole file. Is there some setting required for this to work?

Thanks, but what sort of infrastructure are you referring to? There are 8500 rows of data for this invoice at three levels which is not large, but some fields are 240 characters long.
I'm not getting an Out of Memory type of error. In fact, I'm not getting any errors, just that there is no output. pdf-compression is set to true. What else could I check?

PDF output file from Image Capture corrupted

This problem occurs only when scanning multiple page documents into image capture, the lower 1/4 of the first 2 pages are unreadable blurs. The page shows up ok in the Image capture preview window, but the PDF output is corrupted. The printer is a Brother MFC-7820N, I am scanning 150 dpi grayscale, US letter, no image correction, to PDF. The problem occurs with both of my computers, Quad G5 10.5.8, and a MacBook 10.5.8, this has happened since I purchased the printer, I was running 10.4 at the time. I have just scanned 1 page at a time with no problem, but now I have a large amount of documents to scan and I get the corrupt files. If anyone has seen this and found a solution, I would appreciate any suggestions.

Ah perfect, you made me aware of a feature kink I didn’t know about! When you import stuff using Image Capture, it goes into /private/tmp/Image Capture_Import.(string of numbers and letters).
You can navigate there by going to the Finder, hitting Command-Shift-G, and typing in /private/tmp—if the folder still exists, as it usually does for some time, sometimes even until the next restart or so—you can see the folders which should include one or more of thoe Image Capture_Import.something folders and find your files.
Incidentally, if you want to find a “system” file, i.e., one that’s in a location normally hidden by the Finder, you can:
1. Open up a new Spotlight/Find window in the Finder, and start searching by name.
2. Next to where it says Search: This Mac… etc. there’s a + button. Click that, then
3. From the dropdown menu choose Other… and look in the list for “System files” and check the “In Menu” checkbox for it.
4. Hit OK.
5. Choose “System Files” which is now in the dropdown, choose “are included” from the next dropdown.
Be careful what you do with files you find using this method. It will show everything, including files essential to running your Mac properly, so unless you know exactly what you’re doing, don’t just start dragging files off this window onto your Desktop or anything, try to copy them instead by option-dragging (holding down the option key while dragging)—that way, you’re only making copies, not moving a file from where it’s supposed to be, and your Mac can find it.
Hope this helps! If you can’t find your files this way, there are other programs which can undelete and perform other operations to recover data… this happens to everyone, no matter how long you’ve been a user.

Regression testing on PDF output files from Reports?

My current client is looking to do more automated regression testing of the output (content) of their reports, most of which are output from Reports6i into Adobe Acrobat PDF file format. Is anyone currently using or aware of a tool (QARun, WinRunner, etc.) that will do this? (Most of the tools can do a binary comparison of the PDF files that were output, but we need something that will look into the PDF files themselves and tell us where any differences are found in the actual content (text) of the report itself.)
Thanks in advance for any info anyone can provide!
- Bill

Dear Nick,
Just ensure a printer is configured. This can be done by typing in echo $PRINTER at the $Prompt.
If it returns null then configurea printer and i fell this should resolve your problem,
Since it did resolve my problem.

Urgent: How to break pdf output file in multiple pdf files without bursting

Hi all,
I am developing a rtf template which will take a xml file which contains data for many employees. Now the requirement is to create a individual pdf file for each user. I know that it can be done through Oracle bi publisher's interface through bursting but we don't have that option. We have to do it at template level.
Right now my template produces report for multiple employees on a new page.
<?for-each-group@section:row;./USERS_SYS_ID?><?split-by-page-break:?>
<?end for-each-group?>
Is there any method like <?split-by-file-break:?> by which each employee report can be started in a new output file.
Thanks and Regards,

Thanks, George!
I will try your suggestion.
While waiting for a response, I ran into another problem:
Some of the PDF documents I am to work from are "protected," meaning I can read them but not extract any pages or click to add them to a list of files to import...but I need to extract some or all pages from it. Any suggestions on this?
Thanks!

FTP Receiver File adapter -- CRLF In output File in Windows environment.

Hi All,
Idoc to File : Receiver File adapter.
I use the endseparator 'nl' and the output file is coming correctly with NFS and It is not working when we are doing with with FTP.
Tested with NFS (Unix environment)
I used the endseparator 'nl' and the output file is coming with CRLF.
Tested with FTP (Windows environment)
When I tested the same the output file is coming with LF.
I tried by using the module "SAP XI Sample/ConvertCRLFfromToLF" which will convert from LFToCRLF.But it is serving my purpose.
Can anyone please suggest how I can get the CRLF in the file while putting in the output directory which is in windows environment.
Thanks
Seema

Do not mention endSeparator in content conversion parameters...by default XI puts newline as endSeparator
It should work for NFS and FTP on Windows

File Adapter Overwriting the output files

Hi All,
I´m using a File Receiver Adapter to write flat files on to an FTP. Same Communication Channel is used for all types of output files (As per the business requirement the file name(
MzOutput.txt) shud b same for Deliverz orders, Purchase orders etc...). The receiver legacz szstem reads one file at atime and deletes it. So if i´m writing a Deliverz Order File, i have to wait until the file MzOutput.txt gets deleted and then i have to write the next file using the same name. in order to acheive this, i had used a module processor which waits until that MzOutput.txt gets deleted. Mz problem is
As there are ´n´ no of orders waiting in the queue, if at 12:14:00 the MzOutput.txt gets deleted, then two threads which check for the existance of the MzOutput.txt file finds nothing and tries to write at same time. as a result, first file got overwritten by the second file.
I dint check the indicator OverwriteExisting File in the CC configuration.If i use two different CC channels to write the same file, it is giving FTP Exception which is true.
I´m loosing few deliveries as a result of the above case. Can anzone please help me out in this regard?
Thnx in Advance
Anil

Hi Anil,
Why dont you write the files with 'Add time stamp' option on for the file name and then the third party/legacy system to read the files in the order which they were created.?
Another option will be to write these files into a folder with these Add time stamp option/counter option and make a shell script check the folder for the MzOutput.txt file exists in the folder from where the third party/legacy system reads the file and once it has deleted the existing file, then ur files shud be moved in the order in which they were written n the temporary folder.
This will avoid the queue of messages in the adapter engine.
Cheers

Exe file not producing the output files

Could anyone please help me with my exe file. I have an exe file "exeFile" which takes more than one file as input from the source "c:/files" and produces some files as output into the destination "c:/files". Both my source and destination is same. My code given below is neither showing any error nor outputting any files. My code is:
private static void compilingFiles() throws IOException
     String FirstParam = "C:/files";
     String SecondParam = "C:/files";
     Process proc =Runtime.getRuntime().exec("cmd /c start /MIN C:/files/exeFile " + FirstParam, (String[])null, new File(SecondParam));
}

After going through The reference, I modified my code as under. My first exe file "tex" is doing the necessary as before, that is producing the output files to the destination, but the second exe file "fi2t1" is not producing the necessary output.
My output after running this file is:
<ERROR>
</ERROR>
Process exitValue1: 0
<ERROR>
</ERROR>
Process exitValue2: 0
<ERROR>
</ERROR>
Process exitValue1: 0
<ERROR>
</ERROR>
Process exitValue2: 0
<ERROR>
</ERROR>
Process exitValue1: 0
<ERROR>
</ERROR>
Process exitValue2: 0
So as per The reference, I think my code is right - "So, MediocreExecJavac works and produces an exit value of 2. Normally, an exit value of 0 indicates success; any nonzero value indicates an error.".
So please tell me where am I wrong. My code is:
import java.io.BufferedReader;
import java.io.File;
import java.io.IOException;
import java.io.InputStream;
import java.io.InputStreamReader;
import java.util.*;
public class FontDriverCompile
     public FontDriverCompile()
     void compileFile(File newFile, String renameSub, File outputfile) throws IOException
          String FirstParam = "C:\\Temp\\sample\\font-driver.tex";
          String FirstParam2 = "C:\\Temp\\sample";
          String SecondParam = "C:\\Temp\\sample";
          try
               Process proc1 =Runtime.getRuntime().exec("cmd /c start /MIN C:/Temp/sample/tex " + FirstParam, (String[])null, new File(SecondParam));
               InputStream stderr = proc1.getErrorStream();
               InputStreamReader isr = new InputStreamReader(stderr);
               BufferedReader br = new BufferedReader(isr);
               String line = null;
               System.out.println("<ERROR>");
               while ( (line = br.readLine()) != null)
                    System.out.println(line);
               System.out.println("</ERROR>");
               int exitVal1 = proc1.waitFor();
               System.out.println("Process exitValue11: " + exitVal1);
          catch (Throwable t)
               System.out.println("t.printStackTrace()_1");
               t.printStackTrace();
          try
               Process proc2 =Runtime.getRuntime().exec("cmd /c start /MIN C:/Temp/sample/fi2t1 " + FirstParam2, (String[])null, new File(SecondParam));
               InputStream stderr = proc2.getErrorStream();
               InputStreamReader isr = new InputStreamReader(stderr);
               BufferedReader br = new BufferedReader(isr);
               String line = null;
               System.out.println("<ERROR>");
               while( (line = br.readLine()) != null)
                    System.out.println(line);
               System.out.println("</ERROR>");
               int exitVal2 = proc2.waitFor();
               System.out.println("Process exitValue2: " + exitVal2);
          catch (Throwable t)
               System.out.println("t.printStackTrace()_2");
               t.printStackTrace();
