Finding in a Combined PDF file -- which PDF has each find

I have created a combined file of some 20 PDF files. I now wish to find text across this combined file. I find these as expected and all I see is the page number within the combined file. This is of no value to me. I would like to know how I display the individual PDF filename for each of my finds?

If you've combined pages into a single PDF then the concept of "the individual PDF filename" doesn't mean anything anymore. The combined sections don't know where they came from.

Indexing and Searching pdf files which are used as attachment in an Announcemnet list item

Hi all,
I am using a SharePoint 2013 online environment and trying to search and find pdf files which are attached to a announcement list item. However it does not find anything when I search for the name of the pdf file or the content of the pdf file.
When I attach a word to the list item it gets indexed and it find the file.
thanks and appreciate every kind of advice.

Are you able to search for pdfs in other locations? SharePoint 2013 comes with an iFilter out of the box unlike 2010 which needed configuration.

How do I re-sequence pages in a pdf file, which is in booklet format?

I have a pdf file which is an A5 booklet in duplex for-printing order, with two A5 pages printed on one A4 area. I want to re-sequence these pages to simple ascending page number order, for reading online. How do I do it?
The first A4 page of my pdf file consists of A5 page 1 on left and A5 page 48 on right, followed by the second A4 page consisting of A5 page 47 on left and A5 page 2 on right, and so on. [I can print this out OK as a booklet, except that the second A4 page, etc. is upside down.]
Do I need to take the crude, grunt approach and cut and paste each A5 page, one at a time, into a new document? I am using Acrobat XI Pro

You can reorder pages by dragging them to new positions in the Pages pane on the left.

Create PDF file which will write to mdb

HI there.
I have a requirement to add some code to a set of PDF files which will be read by members of my team as part of their induction. Each pdf has a form at the end which captures their name and a tickbox to state that they have read the document. When a submit button as part of the form is clicked I would like to write these basic details to an access mdb database so that we can keep a check of who is compliant with the induction process.
Is it possible to use Livecycle designer to create a document which will do this when opened in Adobe Reader? I don't need the code to do this - just need to know if it is possible. If not are there any other ways I could save the information on the form silently without the user needing to do anything other than submit the information?
I've read somewhere that for certain things to work you need to activate some kind of reader extensions - is that the case for this solution?
Thanks in advance for your advice.
Matt

Hi Matt,
Yes, if the user has the free Adobe Reader, then database access will require the form to be Reader Enabled in LC/ADEP Reader Extensions.
While you can Reader Enable a form in Acrobat (with restrictions), connecting to a database is not permitted.
See here for a summary: http://assure.ly/etkFNU.
Hope that helps,
Niall

Every time I open a pdf file which includes a javascript, a dialogue box pops up. I have a question why 'Do not show this message again' is not working even I checked on the checkbox. It should block the dialogue next time when I open the same pdf file but not working. What is the matter and how can I deal with it?

I am trying it on Adobe Acrobat Reader 9.2.1. Tried to fix Hex code, and also tried 'edit-preference-trust manager'. I focusing on Adobe registries but still couldn't fix the problem.

I have a document made up of separate PDF files which reside in a folder and are linked to each other via hyperlinks. Each pdf file is set to open with bookmarks displayed, however if I link from one PDF file to another and use the "Previous View" button

I have a document made up of separate PDF files which reside in a folder and are linked to each other via hyperlinks. Each pdf file is set to open with bookmarks displayed, however if I link from one PDF file to another and use the "Previous View" button to navigate back to my starting point the bookmarks are replaced by "page thumbnails". Is there anyway to stop this from happening?

Hi Pusman,
While setting up the links, if you choose to open the file in a new window then you won't face this issue, then you can simply switch to the previous file and bookmark view will remain as it is.
Does that helps with your query?

Firefox keep asking to open or save pdf files which are already in my disk.

Hi all,
Firefox build in function to open pdf files was working ok.
Lately when i try to open a .PDF file which is already in my disk i get a window asking me :
"What should firefox do with this file?
-Open with (firefox default)
-Save the file"
Since the .PDF is already in my disk , i want to open it but firefox keeps asking in that window so i have to cancel and a new blank tab stays there.
What should i do to open the .PDF file?
BTW,i tried to delete the mimetypes.rdf file as read on a message here in order to Reset download actions but in vain.
Thank you for your time reading this.

Hi cor-el,
I used your suggestions and i have the below results:
1.
"''You can change the action for Portable Document Format (PDF) from Preview in Firefox to use another application like the Adobe Reader or set to Always Ask in "Firefox > Options/Preferences > Applications''"
This is not satisfactory because i don't want to use it.I just want the internal viewer for PDF's of Firefox.
2.
''"You can set the pdfjs.disabled pref to true on the about:config page to disable the build-in PDF viewer."''
I set the pdfjs.disabled pref to true and after firefox restart it kept opening empty tabs (weird)
3.
''"You can check the value of the plugin.disable_full_page_plugin_for_types pref on the about:config page and remove the application/pdf part if present or reset the pref to the default via the right-click context menu."''
I did that and just keeps me asking in new tabs what to do with pdf (open or save)
Then i thought maybe another addon conflicted with firefox PDF viewer so i started it in safe mode.Tried to open a pdf and started to open empty tabs...
Finally i installed [https://addons.mozilla.org/en-us/firefox/addon/pdfjs/ this] addon and pdf open ok now.
Still i had to use an addon to make them open.
It was running correctly with out add on.
Is there something else to try since i dont want addon?
Firefox pdf internal viewer was very satisfactory for me...
Thank you for your time reading this.

Why do old Adobe PDF files which I attach to a document show as Firefox files instead of an Adobe PDF file after an Adobe Reader update??

Why do old Adobe PDF files which I attach to a document show as Firefox documents in my files instead of an Adobe PDF file after an Adobe Reader update? My saved files Adobe PDF documents also appear as Firefox documents instead of Adobe PDF files.

NO MATTER WHAT VERSION OF WINDOWS YOU'RE USING:
Right click one of the PDFs with the Word icon.
Select "Properties"
Where it says "Opens With" there is a button to change it from Word to Adobe Reader, which should be in the list of available programs that pops up.
Choose Reader, and click APPLY before clicking OK.
That will change ALL PDFs to Reader as the default application.

Hi, what do you mean when you say they get "locked"?

I need my application to be able to open a .pdf file which was previously synced to the iBooks PFDs Collection. I then wish to remove the file from the collection and send it to email.

Is there a way we can use Acrobat Standard to assign a password for opening of signed PDF file once it has been downloaded from DocuSign?

Prior to implementing DocuSign, we used to scan manually signed document to a PDF file and then store the PDF file in a HR file share. We would then use Adobe Writer Standard to assign a read/write password to the PDF file. We now use DocuSign to have documents electronically signed and download the DocuSign PDF in our HR folders. However Adobe Acrobat Writer does not allow us to assign a password. It pops up a dialog box saying ""you cannot change security on this document because the document is signed or certified". We want to continue being able to store the PDF in our HR file share with passwords to restrict who can view off the share. Is there a way we can assign a password to the PDF file once it has been downloaded from DocuSign?

Thanks Bernd. We can't assign passwords before signature process starts as people will not be able to open the PDF without knowing the password. I think we will change our process and simply leave the electronically signed PDF in DocuSign and then "print" the PDF to our local file share for internal HR purposes. thanks again.
