Filling in PDFs that are not forms?

I have a form I need to fill in. Rather than do it by hand, I'd prefer to use my computer. Unfortunately, the PDF has not been designed with form fields. Is there anyway I can still fill it in using either Acrobat Pro or some other Mac OS X application?
Thanks,
Kelly

In Acrobat Pro you can add form fields and fill the fields. Or you can use the typewriter tool.

I have many pdfs that have the identical structure, but are NOT forms. How can I collect this data?

I have dozens of pdfs which have the identical structure, but are NOT forms. I would like to collect data across these pdfs to analyze. Is there a way to do this?

There are a number of ways that text can be extracted, but it may not be in the order that you'd expect or want. But if it's consistent in any case, you should be able to get at the content you're interested in. JavaScript can be used to loop through the "words" on a page, for example. I've used this approach for several projects that required data extraction.

Infopath Form error - validation errors that are not in the current view?

Hey Experts,
I have a Sharepoint 2010 server running on Server 2008. We have a list that has a custom form created using infopath for editing and new creations.
The problem appeared after a server restart.
Users can no longer create a new item in the list when they do they get this error:
The form contains the following errors:
Field or group: my:Author
Error: Cannot be blank
When I try and preview it in infopath2010 it also does the same thing but provides a more detailed error:
Infopath cannot submit the form because it contatains validation errors that are not in the current view. Errors are marked with a red astrick or red dashed boarder.
If you cannot find an error in otherviews, there might be a problem with the forms design.
I checked all thru the form for my:Author field and can't find it on the page as a control or in the list of fields. Any recommendations?
Thanks!

PDF files are not opening in IE!!!

Some PDF files are not displayed while opening in browser IE . The PDF files are generated through servlets (JWS 2.1). While analysing the problem we have found that the one request invokes the doget() method of the servelet more than once. This problem is not appearing in netscape.
Please give suggestions.

I am having the same sort of problem. I have a form posting to a servlet that displays a pdf based on the vars posted to it. My doPost() calls doGet(). When I post to the the servlet the doPost() is called and then it calls the doGet() and then SOMETHING else calls the doGet() again. Since the vars that I am using to load the pdf are posted they are out of scope for the second doGet(). I tried two things to fix this:
I changed my doPost() method to do nothing but check the request variables and hold on to them. Then I changed my doGet() to use the values that I held instead of the request vars. This only worked sometimes.
Then when I rolled all of my code back and changed my form from POST to GET everything worked fine. It seems that there is something that causes the browser to always call the GET when you are using application/pdf. If my doPost() calls my doGet() everything is lost on the second doGet()

After clearing cash on mac applications won't lunch any more..I tried to delete apps like VLC player with app cleaner and again download and instal new but it's the same..goes for all apps that are not originally part of Yosemite. Please advise me?!

After clearing cash on my mac ( Go to folder: ~/Library/Caches and clear all, than to Library/Cashes and clear all again) applications won't lunch any more..I tried to delete apps like VLC player, firefox.. with app cleaner and again download and install the new one but it's the same..goes for all apps that are not originally part of Yosemite. I have done this cash clean up very often on Maverick without any problems. This time I done it again because I could not open my web site, the server has blocked me and I was trying everything including deleting cash from mac. Please advise me what to do..?!? Thanks in advance.

It sounds like you may have multiple problems, but none of them are likely to be caused by malware.
First, the internet-related issues may be related to adware or a network compromise. I tend to lean more towards the latter, based on your description of the problem. See:
http://www.adwaremedic.com/kb/baddns.php
http://www.adwaremedic.com/kb/hackedrouter.php
If investigation shows that this is not a network-specific issue, then it's probably adware. See my Adware Removal Guide for help finding and removing it. Note that you mention AdBlock as if it should have prevented this, but it's important to understand that ad blockers do not protect you against adware in any way. Neither would any kind of anti-virus software, which often doesn't detect adware.
As for the other issues, it sounds like you've got some serious corruption. I would be inclined to say it sounds like a failing drive, except it sounds like you just got it replaced. How did you get all your files back after the new drive was installed?

H.264 export without audio creates files that are not recognized in Quicktime or VLC

Dear all,
I need to generate h.264 files with video only. (short clips for use with a "clickable" catalog on an iPad)
Used the "H.264" category and chose a preset. Unchecked "Audio" so I only get the video exported.
The resulting .m4v file is not playable in Quicktime or VLC or MPEG streamclip.
When I leave audio enabled with the same preset, the file is fine, but as soon as I export without audio, the resulting file is unreadable.
Source material is ProRes 422HQ, audio+video, about 30-40 seconds long.
Any clues?
Carl.

Thanks Jeff, I did get that far ;-)
I'm sorry, probably my question wasn't very clear. Of course I can find some technical info about the iPad...
And of course some of the presets in Media Encoder provide basic starting points for encoding.
But... there is also the first iPad, I couldn't find the specs about it on the Apple site. On everymac.com I found:
Apple reports that the iPad supports "H.264 video up to 720p, 30 frames per second, Main Profile level 3.1 with AAC-LC audio up to 160 Kbps, 48kHz, stereo audio in .m4v, .mp4, and .mov file formats; MPEG-4 video, up to 2.5 Mbps, 640 by 480 pixels, 30 frames per second, Simple Profile with AAC-LC audio up to 160 Kbps, 48kHz, stereo audio in .m4v, .mp4, and .mov file formats."
So if I want to be compatible with all iPads I need to probably stay under 720p30 with [email protected] for H.264
When I look at
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/H.264/MPEG-4_AVC
I find (from the example values) that 1280x720@30p is quite near the maximum matrix size. So with 1024x576 I should be ok there. My bandwith of about 2Mbit is also well within range in this case. But what if I want to fill an iPod screen (1024x768) with the highest possible quality video? How do I calculate if this fits the max frame size requirements, where this is expressed in a number of luma samples and macroblocks? What is my max bandwith? The tables says that the "Max video bit rate for video coding layer (VCL) kbit/s" should be <14.000kbps. Does that directly translate to the sliders in my encoding app?
If you look in the table "AVC software implementations" (under Software encoder feature comparison) you can see that some features that are supported in MainConcept, and not supported in Qt. (8×8 vs. 4×4 transform adaptivity, Quantization scaling matrices, Separate Cb and Cr QP control, etc. What are these exactly?)
In Streamclip one can choose to have B-frames or not, in AME there is no such control. Does that mean it always encodes with B-frames? Why would one not want to have B-frames?
A lot of parameters in AME H.264 encoding seem to be set to certain fixed values that are not accessible to the user. Other programs (Sorensen, Telestream) provide the user with access to more parameters. Which parameters in AME are set to what (fixed, non-accessible) values and why?
As I said earlier, Quicktime reports different codecs for what should be the same format but from different encoders. Why? Is there a program that can analyze a H.264 stream and report about it in more detail than VLC/Quicktime?
etc. etc. etc....
If anyone could recommend an online resouce or a book to learn more about the ins and outs of H.264 encoding/decoding that would be great. I have the first edition of Charles Poynton's (brilliant!) book "Digital Video and HDTV", which does talk about MPEG-2 but not H.264. I saw that the second edition goes a bit more into detail about H.264. Does anyone have the second edition? Worth buying just for the relatively small addition about H.264?
Thanks.

Pdf's are not converting to Word

Looking for help on why any of the pdf's are not converting correctly to a Word document. I'm not getting any error messages, but what is converting is jibberish. Nothing like the pdf doc that I'm trying to convert.
Thanks!!

Hello Sara
Many thanks for your replies.
I went through the following process a few minutes ago:
I opened the file
Selected tools
Selected the convert PDF to MS Word
Proceeded with the conversion
This took a few minutes
Received the message
"File successfully converted and saved to you online account "
Download converted file
It then gave me a save to choice which I selected
This time parts were converted but most was not
And there were numerous errors.Also a wide variety of fonts most of which I was
able to convert to Ariel Size 10 which is my normal choice
but nemerous letters I could not change.
As for the Samsung ViewScan microfilm viewer it is a beautiful piece of technology
for viewing old and poor quality microfilm.
I had not thought about checking whether it can convert to Rich Text but doubt it.
The main thing is I seem to be able to make some conversion but not complete.
Would it be OK to send you a page or two of the files I am working on?
Again I apprerciate your help.
Best wishes from Kiwiland,
Kiwi Bob

the old apps are on my computer but they have had upgrades since they were put on the ipod originally. you think you would get a warning about this when you restored. I was not worried about losing the progress of the apps but i would have been worried about the app it self!!!!!

How to list files that are NOT in a .jar file?

Is it possible to list files (resources, .gif/.jpg files, etc.) that are NOT included in the jar but are still to be considered part of the application somewhere in the jnlp-file?
My applications requires lots of icons which I have put into .gif files. So far I kept them in individual files next to the .jar file and that worked fine.
JWS now seems to support only stuff that is included in (a) .jar-file(s). That in itself woul not be much of a problem, however, when I include my .gif files into the .jar files they seem to get corrupted by the jar-signing process (at least that what's the code says, which can suddenly not handle these images any more).

My previous seem to have been non-sense. The .gif file were not corrupted, but rather they were not found at all. They actually must NOT be included in the .jar file, or else they are not found. Strange enough, the .properties-file seemingly HAS to be in the .jar file to be found.
This is something I'll probably never fully understand with java: which file-types it searches where...

How do you add/use typekit fonts that are not edge web fonts?

I am just trying out the new Muse CC 2014.1 (August) release and was keen to try the new font facilities. As far as I can see that while I can now add other fonts for which I have downloaded web font files via the Self Hosted Web Fonts function, Typekit fonts that are not "Adobe Edge Web Fonts" are effectively unavailable? Have I missed something.
As an example I want to use the Proxima Nova web font family. I have selected it on the type kit site, set them up to Sync via my Creative Cloud account. So for example if I select a font in Photoshop CC or Illustrator, the Proxima Nova fonts appear. Even ok in Word for Mac. They do not appear in Muse.
To add them as self hosted web fonts, I would need to physically download the relevant fonts files and install them on my desktop using the OS-X font tool. However as they are being sync'd via Creative Cloud this shouldn't be necessary should it? Also I don't see an option for doing so on the typekit site.
Any help or guidance would be very welcome.
PS: I seem to have a separate issue with the Creative Cloud app, which is not listing fonts under the Assets tab. But I don't think that is related as they are working fine for Photoshop, etc.

Hi David,
I'm sorry that you ran into trouble with this. To add fonts from Typekit to your Muse website, you will want to use the web fonts path instead of desktop fonts. (You can use a desktop font synced from Typekit in your Muse design, but it will exported as an image the same as any other system font.)
There are a couple options for using Typekit web fonts in Muse:
o) The Muse Insider wrote a post on how to insert the Typekit embed code from the Muse interface:
http://museinsider.com/how-to-add-typekit-fonts-to-your-muse-site.html
o) Or you can add the embed code to the Page Properties dialog within Muse, which will include it in the <head> of the page when you export your website. The steps are the same as this tutorial, but you will add the Typekit embed code to Muse instead of into your page directly:
TYPEKIT | Adding fonts to your site
Note that in either case the Typekit fonts will not be displayed in the Muse preview window. You'll need to publish your site to a server in order for the Typekit fonts to be loaded into the page.
If those look like more coding that you are comfortable with, you might try one of the fonts which you can select from the font menu instead. Here are some that are similar to :
https://edgewebfonts.adobe.com/fonts#/?xHeight=high&contrast=low&class=sans-serif&width=re gular
We are also working on a more complete integration of Typekit with Muse in the future, but I can't say yet when that will be available.
>> PS: I seem to have a separate issue with the Creative Cloud app, which is not listing fonts under the Assets tab. But I don't think that is related as they are working fine for Photoshop, etc.
Do you see a "loading" icon in the tab (e.g. a blue spinner wheel)? It sounds similar to this thread; you might try these suggestions:
Re: Adobe Creative Cloud / Desktop App / Home Screen: Constant Spinning Wheel
I hope that this helps; let me know if you have any other questions. Best,

How to create a view for all Service Requests that are not approved by reviewer

Hallo,
I want to create a view in the Service Requests library that shows all SRs that are not approved. How to configure condition that says: if a SR has related Review Activity which is In Progress, show that SRs?
I couldn't find this when creating the view. Thank you.

So here's the first problem with that: Which review activity? a SR can contain multiple RAs, so how do we decide if an arbitrary SR is approved or not?
As to the specific language you use (Any child RA is In Progress) you might want to look at the criteria from the default Change approval view, which does something similar:
<QueryCriteria Adapter="omsdk://Adapters/Criteria" xmlns="http://tempuri.org/Criteria.xsd">
<Criteria>
<FreeformCriteria>
<Freeform>
<Criteria xmlns="http://Microsoft.EnterpriseManagement.Core.Criteria/">
<Expression>
<And>
<Expression>
<SimpleExpression>
<ValueExpressionLeft>
<Property>$Context/Path[Relationship='CoreActivity!System.WorkItemContainsActivity' TypeConstraint='CoreActivity!System.WorkItem.Activity.ReviewActivity']/Property[Type='CoreActivity!System.WorkItem.Activity']/Status$</Property>
</ValueExpressionLeft>
<Operator>Equal</Operator>
<ValueExpressionRight>
<Value>$MPElement[Name="CoreActivity!ActivityStatusEnum.Active"]$</Value>
</ValueExpressionRight>
</SimpleExpression>
</Expression>
<Expression>
<SimpleExpression>
<ValueExpressionLeft>
<Property>$Context/Property[Type='CoreChange!System.WorkItem.ChangeRequest']/Status$</Property>
</ValueExpressionLeft>
<Operator>Equal</Operator>
<ValueExpressionRight>
<Value>$MPElement[Name="CoreChange!ChangeStatusEnum.InProgress"]$</Value>
</ValueExpressionRight>
</SimpleExpression>
</Expression>
</And>
</Expression>
</Criteria>
</Freeform>
</FreeformCriteria>
</Criteria>
</QueryCriteria>
This is a simple AND criteria with two componets. one looking for a Review Activity (TypeConstraint='CoreActivity!System.WorkItem.Activity.ReviewActivity') which is related to the targetting CR by Contains Activity ($Context/Path[Relationship='CoreActivity!System.WorkItemContainsActivity';
Context in this... context means the CR targeted by the view) where it's status (/Property[Type='CoreActivity!System.WorkItem.Activity']/Status$) is In Progress ($MPElement[Name="CoreActivity!ActivityStatusEnum.Active"]$). The other is filtering
for the target change request's status ( $Context/Property[Type='CoreChange!System.WorkItem.ChangeRequest']/Status$) is In Progress ($MPElement[Name="CoreChange!ChangeStatusEnum.InProgress"]$).
You could convert the second criteria to point to SRs and SR status values, and then use the similar text for the first criteria. i'd recommend
Anton's Advanced View Editor (or
the free version) to do the criteria adjustment.

Report to Show PR that are not released by release codes

Hello Experts,
I would like to know if there is any report on SAP 6.0 that shows all the purchase requisitions that are not released which shows the releease code (the person's name who has to release the PR). In me55 only could be found by release code, and it is required, I cannot has a report
I think that there is not, but i would like to confirm it.
Thank you in advance,
Best regards

Hello,
1)Go to ME5A t-code & select DYNAMIC SELECTIONS.
2)Select "Purchase Requisition" section and you can make use of parameters like Release Code, Release Indicator , Release Status etc., to fetch the required results.
Hope this helps you in resolving your matter.

HT201322 itunes 11.0.3 - in my iTunes library I can no longer see purchased TV shows and Movies that are not downloaded to my computer. also In my Itunes account i have no hidden TV shows or Movies

I'm running itunes 11.0.3 -
in my iTunes library I can no longer see purchased TV shows and Movies that are not downloaded to my computer.
In my Itunes account i have no hidden TV shows or Movies
I used to be able to view all cloud and downloaded content. I no longer can.

There used to be option to show items that are in the cloud in your library, but I can't find where that now is (unless it's been removed). You should be able to see what items that you can re-download via the Purchased link under Quicklinks on the right-hand side of the iTunes store home page (at the top right of that there should be a 'not on this computer' button)
Edit : Just seen your reply, though I don't appear to have that setting on mine.
