Exporting images in PDF and broadcasting with custom template error in BI 7

Hello! We're in the process of creating broadcast reports and are running into some problems. We need someone with experience exporting PDF's or creating broadcasts using custom web templates in 7.0.
Our issue is two-pronged:
1) We want users to be able to export (with WAD command) web reports to PDF with the company logo. We have a custom web template with just a JPG image and analysis grid. But for some reason, when this template gets exported to PDF, the image does not get included. We've tried embedding the image into table, group, container, container-layout to no avail. Any suggestions?
2) We also need the company logo in PDF broadcast reports. We replaced the standard broadcasting web template 0BROADCATING_TEMPLATE (using RSCUST27) with a custom one, but we immediately get the "error loading template ..." when trying to access the Broadcaster. There seem to be no OSS notes for this. 
Please let me know if you need any additional information.
Thank you!!

which std template are you replacing with this custom template?
Broadcasting
Query Precalculation
Report Precalculat.
Enterpr. Report
Ad Hoc Analysis
I mean which template does online link default to when it is clicked.

  • Exporting report as PDF and CSV formats same time with out executing DB query twice

    Post Author: cpriyanka
    CA Forum: Exporting
    I am using Crystal Report 9.0 version and Java.
    I am getting "PrintOutputController" from "ReportClientDocument"
    And then by calling export(ReportExportFormat.PDF) generating PDF format report.
    Now I need to generate both PDF and CSV format files same time. How can it be done?
    My understanding is when we call "export" it does the DB query execution and other functionality.
    In that case, if I call "export" two times with two different formats, then DB query will be executed twice and that takes lot of time.
    To avoid, is there a way I can all some API so DB query executed once, but I can export report in to multiple formats?
    I appreciate your help.
    Thanks.

    Hello,
    Are you using the "pull" or "push" method for your crystal reports?  If you are using the "pull" method (the report itself executes the sql) then I believe there is no way around having the query execute twice since it is fired off each time you open and export the report.
    If you use the "push" method, however, then you can just create the recordset/dataset and then set the datasouce once for the report.
    Here's a broad overview of push and pull though the Crystal Report Viewer is used.  The viewer may or may not be applicable in your case:

  • Export PSD to PDF and retain text

    I know that you can export a PSD to PDF by printing the document with something like NovaPDF, however, doing so will result in a PDF that has no text - it appears the text has been rasterized and the PDF document is just a series of images. Is there a way to export a PSD to a PDF and retain the text blocks?  This would be very helpful in that the PDF can be indexed, or so that the Find feature works on the document in Adobe Reader.
    Thanks!

    Don't worry. On some versions, it's not that easy to spot. Most Save_As will have Photoshop PSD at the top, then drop down alphabetically, so that Photoshop PDF is amongst the "P's." Sometimes I have to squint to see it and have paniced, when I could not initially find it tucked away.
    Good luck,

  • Error while converting Image -to- PDF and then to PDF/A

    Hi,
    I'm trying to convert a Image format(JPEG,bmp,tiff) to PDF and then to PDF/A. I could able to convert Image to PDF successfully.

    I've just read a footnote in the API documentation which indicates that the transformPDF function cannot be used for this purpose:
    "GS_Enterprise said on Nov 24, 2007 at 12:03 PM :
    Please note that the parameter "inPdfDoc" for transformPDF assumes that the stream content is an XFA-based PDF, and that it's not an XFA-based PDF with a PDF background (also known as "XFA foreground"). In other words, this function does not convert any input PDF to PDF/A, but only those PDFs generated from an XFA template which does not include any static PDF content as a background."

  • Dynamic Images in PDF and Escaping Special Characters

    I used the following to create my own PDFs with dymnamic images:
    http://marcsewtz.blogspot.com/2012_02_01_archive.html (Dynamic Images in PDF - What 32k Limit? )
    I have installed this application on Oracle's free workspace to test.
    The issue I am having is that when there is a special character in the description, such as <>'"& then the the PDF will not open. I have tried using the dmbs_xmlgen.convert to convert the description but haven't had any luck.
    I'm a complete novice with xml. Any help with this is greatly appreciated.
    Thanks,
    Glen

    I have been able to find a solution, but it's not completely perfect. I have changed the "description" field as follows:
    XMLCdata(replace(description,''&'',''and'')) description,
    The characters greater than (>), less than (<), single qoute('), and double quote (") can now all be in the description and will not cause errors. For some reason, I couldn't get the & not to give an error no matter what I tried, so I just replaced the & with the word "and". This solution will work for my needs, but it would be nice to be able to get the & to display.
    Does anyone know of a way to get the & to display correctly?
    Thanks again,
    Glen

  • Missing images in pdf and swf

    When I print to FlashPaper (2.01.2283) my pdf and swf result
    files don't contain the logo image in the word document. Is there a
    workaround for this. I was able to generate a correct pdf using
    pdf995.com's free converter. But I would like also to provide the
    site with Flashpaper, as I've been able to do this for all the text
    only documents.
    Thanks.

    I think I've narrowed this down to the AVG Linkscanner. Turned it off and all images are present and correct.

  • Since update to 10.6.8 can't export images from powerpoint and also other programs

    Ever since I updated my software to 10.6.8 I can't export images from Powerpoint or from a graphing software GraphPad Prism.  It's really frustrating.  I had no problems at all until this update. Is there any way to revert my version to the old OS 10.6?
    I can't work when I can't put images into illustrator!
    Thanks, AOH

    I just contacted Final Draft and they helped me with it. If you have FD and are going to upgrade an OS, Deactivate Final Draft first then re-activate it once the new OS is installed.

  • Need advice. Is it necessary to put images in folders and subfolders with LR?

    It seems that the concept of spending hours putting files into folders, sub-folders and sub-sub-folders is not needed  with LR. Creating all these folders takes hours, especially if you are like me and need a major reorganization of image organization. My thought is that all images can go into one massive folder as long as they are properly tagged. I can then use LR Smart Collections to essentially virtually organize all my images. I can create many more sorting options using Smart Collections than I can by putting images into a folder. This flies in the face of everything I've learned about storing data on a computer so I'm nervouse to head this direction because it starts with unorganizing my folders and removing all tags so I can start fresh.
    I don't want to take this on only to learn I didn't think of a gotcha issue. One drawback is that you are now committed to find anything by using LR or tags only. What do you think?

    Okay, then be honest.  What would you do if you were me?....So - give me an honest recommendation on a go-forward path (no "coulda, woulda, shoulda's").
    Honestly, I always start off from assessing what you really need or what value you could get from keywording. I wouldn't advise you to add keywords for their own sake.
    Lee Jay wrote:
    Meanwhile, I can already find all my images efficiently in seconds in nearly all cases.  I estimate that there is about one situation per year where having a comprehensively keyworded image store would be helpful in saving me time - perhaps 15 minutes each time that happens.
    Let's pretend that this isn't quite as black and white as you always put it. Let's say we're mainly talking weddings - typically wedding photographers add few keywords, if any. And let's say you do need to find certain images more often - each time you go to meet prospective clients you want to put on your iPad (you?) a portfolio of your best work for their broad type of wedding. So you might have categories like indoors / outdoors / subaqua, particular venues, age groups, religions through humanist,  formal / weird. Let's assume you do judge it worthwhile to increase the number of keywords.
    Lee Jay wrote:
    I could start tagging images now as I collect them.  But then I'd have all those other images that aren't tagged and all the new ones that are.  That means using the smart-collection approach would mean all the new ones were in neat collections, and all the old ones were in a gigantic "untagged" collection with over 100,000 images in it.
    Actually, that is the way I would advise you to go. Don't let the perfect be the enemy of the possible. It's not at all uncommon that people are put off beginning doing some keywording by the scale of the complete task. But beginning with the images that you're currently working on isn't too much extra effort. Even if it turns out that you never eventually do go back and keyword the old stuff, in a year's time you'll have a whole year's worth tagged. While doing so you'll probably adopt ways to make keywording less of a chore. For example you might add metadata presets to slap on overall keywords for the typical shoot "Wedding, Ceremonies, Christian" and then one or more keyword sets if you can justify putting time into varying the keywords between images - eg Bride, Kids, Cake. I wouldn't waste any time building up a hierarchy (do if you want, or not if you don't).
    I simply wouldn't worry about the 100,000 remaining untagged - they'll be easier to tackle once you're you've got the experience / benefits from keywording new stuff. I'd advise you to do it only as and when you need - it's too big a task to do anything else. Let's say you need your best shots of Jewish weddings and - as you're currently keeping a lot of metadata in your head - you know some are in that untagged mass. Find them through the folder system as you do now, whack on some keywords like "Wedding, Jewish, Non-orthodox". All those shots are of the bride - whack on "Bride" (maybe from a keyword set). Hey, she's got an obvious tattoo - let's just add that keyword just in case it'll be useful. And quickly move on. Whatever seems worthwhile.
    Although scripting could help, where's the script? Worthwhile to write/adapt one yourself? Instead for folder names I'd just just smart collections to gather image - eg folder name contains "weddings" - and then slap on the keywords. Sure, there will be some duplication between the pseudo-metadata in the folder names and in keywords, but duplication happens with metadata. In fact, it'll be quicker to search by the keyword "Wedding" than search for images with the keyword "Wedding" and / or with the folder name containing "Wedding".
    So that's how I'd advise you - start with the new work, and deal with the older stuff ad hoc.

  • Gray box around images in PDF and when printing? Why?

    Hi,
    I'm using CS5 and I'm getting a gray box around any image embedded in my document.  The box comes if I click on it when a PDF and it prints around them.  I can't seem to figure this one out.  I'm not used to prepping files for print and I'm trying to send this out to someone who needs to print it.
    It's CMYK.
    I've tried to flatten transparency using both vector and rasterize.
    I've made sure the images are embedded.
    I can't figure this out!!
    Please, help.
    Thanks.

    does this look like your problem?

  • Export word to pdf and maintain font color inside tables

    Hello,
    I'm strugling with producing a PDF from Word document and keep the red colored text inside excel tables that are on the Word document.
    From excel I copy the tables to Word 2007, with "Paste special --> Paste link as Microsoft Office Excel 2003 worksheet object".
    In Word all the colors and objects are fine. The problem happens when I try to produce a PDF from that. The red and blue text inside the tables appears with black color on the PDF.
    This happens always. With MsOffice Save as PDF, with Acrobat 9 save as Adobe PDF, print Adobe PDF and with free PDF Creator.
    I've attached the *.doc and *.xls where this problem is occuring.
    http://www.4shared.com/zip/XmKvKJYH/Wireless.html
    If anyone knows the cause of this problem please let me know.
    Thanks

    Solution found. For the pdf printers to work correctly it is necessary to adjust the format when copying from excel. That option needs to be enabled in advanced:

  • Difference between VMI and collaboration with customer

    Hai,
             I am trying to understand the difference between VMI and collaborative planning with customer(CPC)
    Please correct me if I am wrong. In VMI, a vendor or manufacturer sells his material to customer and through EDI, the customer gives the information such as forecast, stock etc.
    In CPC, the vendor and customer interchange information, such as demand, stock levels, promotions, delivery dates etc., based on ITS.
    What is the difference between these two?
    If I am not wrong, EDI is used for outside company communication andITS for within. So, can I say that VMI is for customer outside the company and CPC for internal customer?
    Thank you.

    Hi Visu,
    Service provided by a vendor for a customer, whereby the vendor plans material requirements in the customer's company. Vendor-managed inventory is only possible if the vendor has access to the customer's current stock and sales data.
    In the ERP system, the following functions are available for vendor-managed inventory:
    Transfer of stock and sales data by EDI
    Receipt of stock and sales data by EDI
    Replenishment planning for customers
    Creation of a purchase order for an external EDI order acknowledgment
    supply chain management tool that synchronizes demand signals and supply chain activities by utilizing Internet technology. Collaborative Planning enables supply chain partners to view, share and synchronize common information within the supply chain.
    Hope this helps.

  • AM7.1 and DS with custom DIT/schema

    I am installing AM 7.1 in realm mode and using a remote DS 6. I use the configure now option and choose no when asked if directory is provisioned with user data. Everything is ok but i need to config AM for my directory.
    My DIT is strange because all my users are at root, o=company. I also use a custom attribute for the rdn in user entries. How do I get AM to look at root for people entries, it seems by default to use ou=people? How do I get AM to see and use a custom dn for people entries?

    This is a conflict in the OID or Name in either an object class or attribute.
    No attribute must have an identical OID or name as another defined attribute
    (both OID and name identical between 2 definitions means same definition)
    The error log on the Consumer should have the OID or the name of the schema element that is already defined.
    Schema replication between 5.2 and 5.1 servers is explained in the Administration Guide of Directory Server 5.2 and may require some settings (I don't recall which way, but it's covered in the documentation).
