Formatting files for PC's using AutoCad machine control

I sent a series of line drawings (Illustrator 12.0.1, OS 10.4.1) to a water-jet cutter who asked for the drawings in dxf format. He controls his CNC machine with a PC running AutoCad program. The drawings imported into his program OK but he says AutoCad doesn't like the Illustrator segments, particularly the long bezier curves and he has to go over every drawing adjusting the control points and adding others to get the CNC machine to perform properly. (Dumbing down???)
I'm thinking the solution is to somehow apply the Illustrator option 'split long paths'. Is there an option to do this according to values that I can enter somewhere? Or is it only possible to do this manually with the scissors tool? Or does anybody have any experience with preparing files for use by PC's with AutoCad for the control of a CNC machine? Advice?

James,
George needs less segments/anchor points. The bezier curves that Illustrator creates when exporting to DXF is a nightmare for a waterjet cutter. It is interpreting the bezier data as many tiny individual line segments that make up an arc. He would be better off exporting version 8 AI ( everything higher than 8 is PDF based ) if his vendor could import it. They are definitely "cleaner" when importing into CAD vs the DXF export from AI and DXF import into AutoCAD. I am assuming the vendor cannot import AI, that is why I recommended www.kandusoftware.com
I have been down this road many times, cleaning up bad DXF files with numerous line segments. You get good at it after a lot of practice, but it is still takes a lot of time to get good output on the waterjet cutter.

How do I export v-card formatted files for use with either Numbers or Excel?

How do I export v-card formatted files for use with either Numbers or Excel?

Did you open Automator and just look around?
Actions are listed in the left pane.
You drag them into the workflow on the right in the order you need to process the items that you want.
If this is a on-off requirement, just make a Workflow. If you plan to use it often, make it an Application.
If you want to select the contacts you want to export, use a get Selected action. You'd then select the contacts in Contacts App before running the workflow.
I'm not on a Mac to take screenshots, so you'll have to look at Automator's help or google for more info.

Dear Merlino,
I have some steps about withholding tax is it suitable or not find out but some scenarios is suitable kindlay check out
Hi
Withholding tax is calculated and posted to the appropriate withholding tax accounts at different stages, depending on the legal requirements in each country. As a rule, withholding tax is posted at the same time that the payment is posted, in other words the outgoing payment (Accounts Payable) or incoming payment (Accounts Receivable), is reduced by the withholding tax amount.
In certain countries, such as Brazil, the Philippines, and Spain, withholding tax can or must be posted when the invoice is posted. This means that the amount receivable or payable is reduced by the withholding tax amount.
Extended withholding tax supports both concepts.
The key concept in extended withholding tax is the distinction between withholding tax type and withholding tax code. While withholding tax types represent basic calculation rules, specific features of these rules - in particular the percentage rate -
are represented by the withholding tax code. You can define any number of withholding tax codes for a given withholding tax type.
If a particular transaction requires more than one kind of withholding tax, this is covered in the SAP System by defining more than one withholding tax type.
When entering a line item, you can enter withholding tax data for each of these withholding tax types.
How To Configure Withholding Tax?
Steps for extended withholding tax :
1. Check withholding tax countries
2. Define Ex. Withholding tax types for invoice postings
3. Define Ex. Withholding tax codes
4. Formula for Ex. Withholding tax calculation
5. Assign Ex. Withholding tax types to Company code
6. Activate Ex. Withholding tax
8. Create a G/L a/C for Ex. Withholding tax
9. Define A/C for Ex. Withholding tax (DBWW)
10. Make changes in Vendor master (XK02)
11. Maintain Company Code Settings:
Path: IMG -> Logistic -> General -> Taxes on goods movement -> India -> Maintain company code settings
12. Activate country version for specific fiscal year position
Path: IMG -> FA -> -> **** -> Taxes on sales purchases -> Basic Setting -> India -> Activate country specific for fiscal year position

Exporting file for Flash Catalyst use?

Hey everyone. I've made a video in Flash Pro, and I want to be able to play it in Flash Catalyst. I'm using 5.5 of both versions, btw. I export the Flash Pro video to a .mov file and then use Media Encoder to make that a .flv file. I bring that file into FC and publish to web. However, when I put those 'deploy to web' files on my website, the video doesn't play. Everything else works except for the video. So I put a generic, short .flv file that I downloaded from the internet into my FC file. I published it to my website again, and everything worked fine. The video played. So obviously the problem with my video must be in the encoding process.
How should I do this? I read one article online that said when I export a .mov file for FC, I should make sure that I don't have 'Fast - Compressed Header' selected in the Streaming options. Well, I checked and I don't. It's just under regular 'Fast'. So what am I doing wrong here? I've even tried converting my .mov file to a f4v file, and that doesn't work. Help here would be so greatly appreciated.

Ah. I think they just tested the .html file. Though, they were trying nearly everything yesterday, so they might have tried the swf file, too. I'll ask him this afternoon. There's a webpage included in both deploy-to-web and run-local folders. Both are entitled main.html. I'm looking at both codes in Dreamweaver to see what would be different, how the code is calling to the flv video, and I can't see any change! I switch from one code view to the other, and nothing is different. The only difference is that in the video size area, the html file from the run-local folder is bigger. So obviously something more was put into the run-local html file, but what I don't know. I can't figure that out from the code. Here's the code from the run-local file, though it looks the same in the deploy-to-web html file, too.

But I don't see anything where it calls to my bathinline.flv file. Yet this one plays just fine. I've played both .html files, and only the run-local html file plays fine on my computer (not viewing from website this time). So I agree with you that I think it's a pathing issue on the deploy to web thing, but I have no idea what. The code isn't showing any difference.
Any more ideas. You've been really, really helpful so far!

How big should my external hard drive be for me to use Time Machine?

i am a student and dont have a significant amount of files and that on my computer so how big shuld my external hard drive be?
I will be using a normal external hard drive so will i be getting the full and the important features out of time machine if i do this?

There are two questions you should ask yourself:
1. How long will it take me to fill up my internal HDD?
2. How far back chronologically do I realistically expect to have go to retrieve data?
I submit that in the vast majority of cases, a HDD of the same size as you have in your MBP will be ample. If things change, adjustments can be made well in advance. Its the very rare user that will generate multi GBs of data and file changes every session.
As an example, I have a 750GB HDD in my MBP and a 750 HDD dedicated to Time Machine. The oldest backup goes back 7 months. At the rate that I update Time Machine, I expect the Disk to be filled and start deleting old data in about 3 months. For me, that is more than sufficient.
There is another aspect of backup strategy you should consider. I would highly reccomend that you have a second external drive to store your most important files that may be duplicates of those in Time Machine. All HDD will fail. You just never know when that will happen. If your Time machine disk expires, this way you are not left in a calamitious situation.
Though some of my views may be in the minority, the final decision is always yours.
Ciao.

Name of movie format file for html5

It's been a long time since I done this, but what is the name of the file format for video for HTML5? Also what is a easy format to do this?
Thanks, Joe

Hi Joe
Sorry, but we need just a bit more information here.
Do you have a Captivate project that will be used to create HTML 5 and you want to add a video to that project?
Or do you want to simply export the Captivate project out as a video that might be played within an HTML 5 page?
Unfortunately, when it comes to video, it's quite an "alphabet soup" or "word salad" of different things. There is no standard "format". What we have are a collection of "containers" with each container being capable of storing different kinds of video content inside. So you could have three different MP4 files and two may fail to play while one plays beautifully. It's all in the internal encoding of the video. Life with video is bizarre.
Cheers... Rick

Saving a formatted file for S1000D

Hi,
I have had some success creating a document using the S1000D download with Framemaker 9. I can save it as a .sgm file and get it back. Problem is I want to format the contents in Framemaker. SGML doesn't include formatting so I tried to save it as a framemaker 9 file and it bombed out completely and closed Framemaker. This happens even if I start a new S1000D document and try to save it as a .fm file immediately without changing anything. Has anyone else had this problem or am I doing something stupid?
Another Question: Has Adobe released a more up to date version of S1000D than 2.2? They're on 4.0.1 now.

I was hoping this wouldn't open another can of worms. I am indeed using the beta application pack for FM 7.2.
The strangest thing is that I've just tried it again and the sgm file saved successfully as a fm9 file and came back into framemaker with the formatting entact. I tried this several times earlier and it bombed FM completely. It might be because I didn't have any images this time. There are XSLT warnings when opening the sgm file though.
This is all moot if the SGML will be invalid.
To answer your question, I am trying to output to SGML by starting a new document using the S1000D2.21descript structured application. I then "Save As", choosing an sgm extension from the "Save as Type" dropdown. I can then open this file, special paste text from Word and save. Later, I open the .sgm file, save as a .fm file and format it.
What are the options if I can't use the beta application?
Thanks for your response. Let me know if you need any more details.

Stack File for JSPM when using Maintenance Optimizer

Hello,
As you know JSPM looks for a stack file when applying a support pack stack. When using maintanance optimizer I see no way to get a stack file. I end up having to do the work twice: once to get the files in maintenance optimizer, and again I have to go to marketplace swdc to choose the files and create the list of downloads again only to save a stack file.
Am I missing something? Is this double work really necessary?

Hello John,
It seems that you are doing double work.
If you use the download type as "SLM" then you have a chance to transfer the XML to SLM. Else if you choose the download type as "Download Manager" then the XML should be created in the EPS/in folder of the Solution Manager system.
You also need to check whether you have applied all the applicable notes for the Solution Manager stack from the note 1122966 and that the BC sets for MOPZ are activated correctly.
Finally check the permissions on the EPS/in folder of Solution Manager to check whether there is a issue with authorizations.
A SLG1 log ( filtered by the username who creates the MOPZ transaction and time at which the transaction was created ) will reveal the errors in the process.
Regards
Amit

Hi SK,
Thank you for your reply!
We are not allowed to use Visual Studio and the same thing we can use in JavaScript, but file stream takes path as one parameter which is physical location of your file system. When you use it some times users might not have access to the file system then
our code fails.
