Extracting information about image compression settings

Hi,
Is there any way using SDK 7.0.5 to determine what image compression settings were used for color, grayscale, and monochrome images for a given pdf file?
Also, is it possible to determine which color management policy was used?
Thanks,
Daniel Sheiner

Okay, Distiller was a bad example. The same range of settings are available for exporting PDFs from Word. What if someone converted a Word document to a PDF?
Supposing some or most of the information I'm looking for is lost, how much can I infer? For example, if a given PDEImage has the PDEColorSpace DeviceRGB or CalRGB, that at least tells me the user didn't select Color Management Policies -> Convert All Colors to CMYK. It would actually be tremendously helpful if you could tell me which other ColorSpace names, if any, would indicate the user didn't select Convert All Colors to CMYK.
It would also be quite helpful to know if there is some indirect way to determine that a given color or grayscale PDEImage has not been compressed using ZIP, or that a monochrome PDEImage has not been compressed using CCITT Group 4.
Thanks!

  • Extracting informations about rectangles, lines, fields etc from PDF

    I'm looking for a way, to extract rectangles, lines, fields etc from a PDF, for example think of a blue rectangle which is drawn in a Word document, which is later exported to pdf. I need informations about the position of the rectangle, the color, the size, if it is filled or not, etc. Is there something like an API or an SDK which can help me? I searched for quite a time (so please, no RTFM-answers), but the only references I found where about producing PDF or extracting text, images or graphics (oh, just at the moment, I had the idea, that lines and rectangles could be coded as vector-graphics in PDF, could that be possible?).
    I'm thankful for all answers and ideas (even if you just post links with informations),
    kind regards,
    Pivo

    Yes, lines and rects are coded as vector graphics (or specifically path drawing instructions) in a PDF.
    Adobe offers an SDK around Adobe Acrobat which would enable you to get this information. If you need a standalone solution, we also offer our full PDFLibrary.

  • Extract information about Travel Management

    Hi !!
       I need to work on extractor to get information about Travel Management, the user's need to know how much the company spend on travel.
      I read some documentation about  0FI_TV_01 and 0FI_TV_02, But I don´t know where I can get more information about how to activate this extractor's and how work on R/3 and connect with BW (7.0)
      At this time I konw how work 2LIS_02_ITM and how this extractor was configured and activated on R/3 Systems and their connection with BW.
      Please, If you know some documentation or you can send me one tutorial about this extractors, just let me know
      I will assign points to you.
      Thank you.

    Alice,
    My working week is Sunday -Thursday.
    It is true that you can see if an extractor is delta-enabled by looking at the table value.  It is also apparent in the info-package.
    However, the value in the table is not the reason why the extractor is delta-enabled.  There is an extractor program which handles the extraction, which, for these extractors have been programmed for full extraction.
    Delta extraction in principle is programmed based on certain fields like a change/creation date.  Sometimes the business process i.e 'management of the travel scenario' may not be readily amenable to programming data-extraction.
    In short, you do not have a quick solution for making these extractors delta-enabled.
    There has been some discussion in this forum on the concept of pseudo-delta - take a look at the link below:

  • Can I extract information about objects created in Designer

    Is there a way to extract a list of all the objects used within a form from designer. I know that the objects can be viewed in the Hierarchy palette but I would like to have this information extracted. Is this possible?

    I have made a form with email submit button in Adobe Designer8. Then I opened this form into Acrobat8 and distributed it. Every thing goes fine.
    The problem arises when recipients are also able to distribute my form if they open it in Acrobat8. Its very frustrating. If some one can tell mew how I can put restriction over this option to the recipients.
    I will be thankful for this help.

  • How to extract text and image information from postscript file

    I want to write a programe,and extract text and image information from postscript file using Java.Is it possible? How to extract ?
    Thank!

    First of all, PostScript is not a "text" file. It can and often does contain binary data. Since PostScript streams often contain nested procedures, unless you process the procedure definitions and can "execute" them, you cannot simply "scan" a file to get what you want. No, I can't talk about this in detail since it is quite complex. But Adobe does have the
    PostScript Language Reference Manual on-line for download at
    . Look that over and you will have a fairly healthy respect as to the task involved.

  • Where can I find a general information about settings of the PCI-IMAQ-1411 board?

    There is many attributes in the properties dialog of the IMAQ channel in the M&A Explorer. For example Mode (Frame/Field), Lock speed (Slow/Normal/Fast/Very Fast), Luma Comb (Disabled/Enabled). Where can I find a comprehensible description of them?

    The starting point is the help file. There is a section with the title: "Setting IMAQ Device and Camera Properties". That section provide some explanations about the properties and options to configure your IMAQ cameras.
    You can obtain more information by visiting the Developer Zone at the NI website. Look for the Vision section at the Resource Library. The exact address is:
    http://zone.ni.com/devzone/devzone.nsf/webproducts/7d6146d8c67a832e862567f1006c29ee?opendocument
    You will find explanations, tutorials and examples about different topics in vision, including configuration descriptions.
    Finally, a full understanding of some properties requires knowledge about vision and image processing. A good book about Image Processing in general should be of benefit.

    According to:

    It has DVI ports.  This means you are best to use an adapter that supports DVI.  Note there is no audio that carries over DVI.  What you need is a mini-Displayport to DVI adapter, and the proper DVI cable. Since Dell doesn't have the specs, you'll need to tell us if you have pins or holes, and how many are grouped.

  • [CS3 JS] Getting information about Photoshop images in InDesign

    Hello,
    Through an InDesign script I can get many pieces of information about an image such as the file name, resolution in PPI, dimension in inches, color mode, etc.
    What I am wondering is if it is possible to find out how many layers a Photoshop image may have. I would like a quick way to know if an image has been flattened (one layer) without having to open up the image in Photoshop.
    Tom

    You can do this via BridgeTalk, here is an example. Select a TIF or PSD image and run the script.
    const gScriptName = "Get number of layers";
    const gScriptVersion = "1.0";
    var gLayersNumber;
    Main();
    //===================================== FUNCTIONS  ======================================
    function Main() {
        var image, pixelDimensionsArr, folderPath, copyResult;
        var doc = app.activeDocument;
        try {
            if (app.selection[0].constructor.name == "Image") {
                image = app.selection[0];
            else if (app.selection[0].images.length > 0) {
                image = app.selection[0].images[0];
            else {
                ErrorExit("The selection contains no image.");
        catch(err) {
            ErrorExit("The selection contains no image.");
        var link = image.itemLink;
        if (!link.isValid) ErrorExit("Can't get the link.");
        if (link.linkType == "Photoshop" || link.linkType == "TIFF") {
            if (link.status == LinkStatus.NORMAL) {
                linkFile = new File(link.filePath);
                if (linkFile.exists) {
                    CreateBridgeTalkMessage(link.filePath);
                    alert("Number of layers: " + gLayersNumber);
    function CreateBridgeTalkMessage(imagePath) {

  • No Preview Box in "Standard Video Compression Settings"

    Hi:
    I'm taking a class in Photoshop CS5.  Our textbook is Adobe Photoshop CS5 Classroom in A Book and we've reached Lesson 12 Working with 3D Images.  At the end of the chapter we made a 3 second Quicktime (H.264 Compression) movie.  According to the book, after choosing Quicktime Export in the Render Video diolog box, it should open a Movie Settings diolog box which, after choosing Videe Settings button, opens the Standard Video Compression Settings box.  In the lower right of that box there should be a Preview window showing the effect of the compression on a frame of the animation.  For me the preview window is blank even though I can compress the file. I've moved the animation's timeline current time indicator to the beginning, middle, and end of the animation but to no effect.
    I'm rumming a Macbook 2 Ghz Intel Core 2 Duo with 4 GB of SDRAM.  The computer does support OpenGL which appears to be chosen in the 3D section of Photoshop's preferences.
    Thanks for any suggestions.

    Don't worry about file size at this point; the determining factor is program length. A single layer 4.7GB DVD will hold about two hours of video. The compression is handled in the DVD authoring application.
    From FCE, just export to QuickTime Movie (do not use QT Conversion). If you'll burn the DVD on the same computer, make sure the "self-contained" box is unchecked for a much quicker export.

    if having issues opening raw files also the exact camera make and model that generated them,
    if you're having printing issues, indicate the exact make and model of your printer, paper size, image dimensions in pixels (so many pixels wide by so many pixels high). if going through a RIP, specify that too.
    A screen shot of your settings or of the image could be very helpful too,
