Grayscale output for PDF

Goal: Grayscale PDF file from Illustrator CS3, suitable for imagesetting at newspapers, magazines, and other publications.
Solution: Print Illustrator file to AdobePDF 8.0 PS file, then use Distiller to make a press quality PDF file. (PDF/X-1a requires CMYK separation, even if CMY are blank.) Effects such as "outer glow" or "drop shadow" must first be rasterized in grayscale.
Question: Anyone know a simpler (faster and less error-prone) way to generate a black-only PDF file for imagesetting? (In particular, one that doesn't require picking a printer resolution and screen frequency, which may not be known?)

Here's a tip from Anne-Marie Concepción that appeared in InDesign Magazine (#15), which tells how Convert Colors in Acrobat Pro is a better solution (though far from ideal):
Create a Grayscale PDF
To make a grayscale PDF out of your color InDesign layout, you could follow the steps in the tip Print a Grayscale Version but specify the virtual Adobe PDF 7.0 (or 8.0) printer as your output device instead of your actual printer. However, its faster to export a color PDF using any of the usual PDF Presets and then convert the file to a grayscale PDF in Acrobat Pro itself. Unlike InDesign, Acrobat has no problem converting color .eps files or spot colors to grayscale.
To convert a color PDF to grayscale in Acrobat Pro 7, choose Tools > Print Production > Convert Colors, and set all the Document Colors listed in the top section to Convert via the Action dropdown menu directly below. Then choose one of the Gray Gamma presets at the bottom of the Destination Space dropdown menu, set any other options youd like (pages, conversion options), and click the OK button to convert the PDF. To verify that everything is grayscale, open the Output Preview dialog box (Tools > Print Production) and check that nothing is on the CMY plates, just the K plate.
Her example also shows that "Don't Embed Profile" and "Preserve Black Objects" are enabled.
Another way to test the result is to use Advanced > Print Production > Preflight > PDF Analysis > "Document generates more than one plate".

XML output for pdf concurrent program

Hi,
We have one custom concurrent program defined with output as pdf.
We want to generate an xml output some times. We dont want to register another concurrent program.
We want to use same concurrent program, but want to generate output some times pdf , some times xml.
Please suggest whether any possible way of doing this even using CONCSUB also fine.
Thank you,
Venkat.

Hi Ramana;
We want to submit the concurrent program, but output type either as xml or pdf it will be known during runtime.AFAIK if you prepare template in XML publisher than you can take output as pdf, by the way you can take xml output too
Please check user guide:

Bridge cs5 won't display controls for output for pdf or web

hi, selected some images to create a contact sheet, but when i clicked on "output" nothing appeared in the window, as if this module didn't launch. any suggestions for a reset? i'm at a college, so it will be a pain if i have to reistall software (IT guy has to do it). nothing in bridge's preferences refer to the output controls. any help appreciated.
mark

nothing in bridge's preferences refer to the output controls. any help
appreciated.
In general you don't need to reinstall at first trouble. A restart holding
down option key and from the pop up menu resets all preferences to default
settings including the default workspaces.
But could you be a little more specific about your workflow, f.i. on what
output you are clicking for the module (the default workspace, the icon or
menu view-workspace-output) And does that window look as output containing
at least the content panel, preview panel and output panel with all its
settings (document-lay out-overlays-header etc).
Maybe you can provide a screenshot of what you are seeing when in output?

Issue in PDF output for xml report

Hi,
I developed one template in RTF and output in pdf is looks fine.
I have issue in the output, For some invoices i have more lines,when the line details comes to next page for the same invoice i can able to view only the lines information in the next pages for the same invoice without any header details.
I need header information too if the lines comes to the next page.
i given <G_Headers> in the top of the page and <End for each> in the end of the page.
please how to resolve this issue.
with regards
Ram

There are lot of ways of doing this,
Simple one is given here.
If you are using table to display the rows, there is option in word table properties, to repeat the header in each page,
Repeating table headers
If your data is displayed in a table, and you expect the table to extend across
multiple pages, you can define the header rows that you want to repeat at the start
of each page.
1. Select the row(s) you wish to repeat on each page.
2. From the Table menu, select Heading Rows Repeat

XML PO Output for Communication does not show barcode on PDF

Hi,
I am attempting to add a barcode to the PO Output for Communication XSL style sheet. I am doing this by calling 2 RENDERX XSL style sheets, the second containing an SVG template.
I have successfully accomplished this locally on my personal computer using FOP to generate the PDF (barcode appears perfectly). When I transfer the files to Oracle (the new custom PO XSL-FO style sheet in a template, along with 2 new templates for the 2 RenderX XSL stylesheets. The RenderX style sheets appear to be imported at runtime using calls similar to: <xsl:import href="xdo://PO.ALKS_CODE128_BARCODE.en.US/"/>
The PO Output for Communication report runs successfully with no errors or warnings, and all of the output appears EXCEPT for the barcode (remember this is SVG). Same thing happens when I View Document from the PO form.
Why does my SVG barcode not appear on the PO Output for Communication within Oracle, yet the same code runs perectly on my PC. I've looked into the Adobe SVG Viewer plug-in, but I do not have that on my local machine yet the barcode appears fine in the PDF. It seems the PDF should be able to show any image anyway.
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Suzanne

Hi,
I am not using a barcode font. I am using RenderX's XSL stylesheets to generate the barcode. As I said, the barcode generate's fine in the PDF on my computer but does not appear in the PDF when the code is moved to Oracle.
Thanks,
Suzanne

Ditafm-output.ini and PDF output for different situations

I'm using a DITA 1.2 structured app and templates that I've set up. I'm generally happy with the output that I'm getting now, but I've also come to realize that I have two different situations for PDF output--in situation one, I need to set up for printed books, i.e., facing pages, keeping chapters starting on right-hand pages and so on. Situation two is for electronically-distributed PDFs that are NOT books--files that customers might print themselves, probably not double-sided, so I don't need facing pages with the associated blank pages in the file, and so on.
I'm using flags in the ditafm-output.ini file to control the pagination for the printed book in my output. Both situations currently use the same output templates, though I may create a single-sided template for situation two. That's easy enough.
My question, then, is this: It seems to me that I'll need two different ditafm-output.ini files for the two situations. Is there an easy way to switch between them? Output seems separate from the structured application, and I don't need or want two separate apps.
The best I can think of at the moment is to create a second ditafm-output.ini file with the settings I want for situation two, name it ditafm-output_foo.ini and change it to the "real" name when I need it. This, of course, introduces a potential overwrite disaster. Naturally, I'll keep backups.
Unless there's a better way??

That's the only way I can think of using "default" Frame to support multiple output types. To make it less error-prone you might set up batch files that do the copying .. just run the right batch file before you build each type of book.
OR .. you could use DITA-FMx which lets you define an INI file for each book-build (and provides many more features).

Procedure
 When we activate the Smartform the system generates a Function Module. The function module name we can get from Smartfrom screen from menubar
Environment => Function Module_Name . In a report we can get this Function module name by calling a Function Module standard SSF_FUNCTION_MODULE_NAME. This function module at runtime calls the FM generated by smartform, which in turn is then used to pass data from the report to Smartform. In the report given below the FM generated is /1BCDWB/SF00000152 . In this FM we can see CONTROL_PARAMETERS in import tab. This is of type SSFCTRLOP. We need to set the GETOTF of this to be X. Setting this field will activate the OTF field in smartform.
In export tab of the FM generated by smartform we can see a parameter JOB_OUTPUT_INFO which is of type SSFCRESCL. The SSFCRESCL is a structure of having one of fields as OTFDATA. OTFDATA in turn is a table of type ITCOO. ITCOO has two fields TDPRINTCOM and TDPRINTPAR. TDPRINTCOM represents command line of OTF format data and TDPRINTPAR contains command parameters of OTF format data.
In every Smartform output in OTF format, TDPRINTCOM begins and ends with //. EP represents the end-of-page value for TDPRINTCOM field.
In addition we need to set few fields at the place where we call this FM(generated by smartform) in our program. While calling this FM we should set control_parameters, output_options, user_settings and job_putput_info fields as shown in program.
Once these settings are done we can call Function Module CONVERT_OTF to convert the OTF data of smartfrom output to PDF data format. Once these are done we can call method cl_gui_fronted_services=>file_save_dialog to specify the directory path where we want to save the output PDF file. After this we can call Function Module GUI_DOWNLOAD to download the PDF file on our local system.
Here is a sample code of program to perform the function.

Unable to generate XLS output for Quoting Module

We are using XML Publisher to generate Quote report. We need the output in XLS (Excel) format but it generates only PDF.
We debugged the following files:
qotSCopOverview.jsp
qotSCocPrint.jsp
qotSCopPrint.jsp
jtfcrmchrome.jsp
oracle.apps.aso.print.webui.MainCO.class
We have set DES_FORMAT to XLS instead of PDF, however it is not generating XLS but the output is PDF only.
We would like to know the exact JAVA/JSP file which calls XML Publisher engine, so that we could directly change the FORMAT parameter.
Kindly let us know whether it is possible to generate XLS in this way. Your help will be greatly appreciated.
Thanking you,
SURESH KUMAR M R

Finally we found the solution for this problem.
1. Open qotSCocPrint.jsp and add below line inside <SELECT id="qotOutFrmt" name="qotOutFrmt"> statement. This line should be added after "for" loop.
<OPTION value="EXCEL">Excel Format</option>
We can add as many options the XML Publisher supports.
2. Decompile oracle.apps.aso.print.webui.MainCO.class (Controller).
Change the below line
httpservletresponse.setContentType("application/pdf");
to
httpservletresponse.setContentType("application/"+quoteOutputFormat.toLowerCase());
Take a backup of the original file, compile the java in the same directory.
3. Decompile oracle.apps.aso.print.server.PrintQuoteAMImpl.class and change this line
Field field = class2.getDeclaredField("OUTPUT_TYPE_PDF");
to
String outputFormat="OUTPUT_TYPE"+as[12].trim();
Field field = class2.getDeclaredField(outputFormat);
Bounce Apache and generate the Quote output in desired format.

Bridge CS4 won't output to pdf multiple images with same filename

Hiya...my googling efforts have thus far failed!
I've got CS4, and in Bridge, I created a New Smart Collection to find all filenames in a folder containing "." or ".jpg" - which in turn searched through all the subfolders like what you used to be able to do in Photoshop CS3. Very simple stuff, but all the images are jpg's, but in multiple folders (I don't want to move them out of the folders, as the files came from an external source, and there are heaps of folders, and I don't want to pdf each subfolder seperately as it will take forever).
The problem is that some of the files have the same filenames (again I'd prefer not to rename, as it happens a lot on this project, and they are all over the place). So whilst Bridge will show the thumbnail images correctly in the content tabbed screen in my New Smart Collection, but once I've done the Output to PDF thing, for example, instead of showing both different images it has pdf only the first image but repeated it twice. And this happens multiple times throughout the pdf, the more times the same filename is used, the more times the first image gets repeated.
I know that it is messy to have multiple similar filenames, but why can't bridge just place the image anyway? It allocated a space for it on the pdf and does show it in bridge, it just doesn't seem to survive the transfer to pdf well.
The only other thing that I have done is use the below link (which was posted on another adobe forum thread) to create a custom pdf output template (nothing too fancy, just number of rows / columns, size, font etc). But I've tried using the standard bridge templates and it does the same thing.
http://www.proficiografik.com/2009/08/03/save-custom-pdf-output-template-in-adobe-bridge-c s4.html
Any help would be appreciated...even if to tell me that I am being unreasonable!
UPDATE 16/11/09
Just to let you know that I seem to have resolved the bug inadvertently with one of the Adobe updates. The below is the link for the AdobeOutputModule-2.1-mul-AdobeUpdate.zip which was released on 2/19/2009 - which allows for headers & footers to be placed in the Ouput pdf. I finally installed it today, and everything seems to be working fine now (i.e. I can pdf multiple images with the same filenames and the pdf will actually show each different image rather than repeating only 1 of the images).
Must have been a fix installed in the contact sheet templates that get installed with the update - not sure why the original version was corrupted, but I've left that with the Adobe guys (I submitted a bug report - and they were able to replicate the problem but hadn't fixed it as yet).

When I click import from disc I am asked to choose a disc and then I get this message:
The following photos will not be imported because they are already present in the catalog. To see these photos in the catalog select 'Show in Library' (the import will be canceled).
This is followed by a long list of images. If I click 'Show in Library' I can see all the images with the same filename. And then they start to automatically write over those images with images from the disc. However they keep the same metadata and keywords from the previous images. If I click on Import and deselect the "don't reimport suspected duplicates" box, it imports only the images that don't share filenames and none of the images that do.
Is there a way of setting the "Don't reimport suspected duplicates" box in preferences?

Hi Guus,
We are not using the new authorizations we are still on 3.5 authorization and we tried for an user with SAP_ALL, SAP_NEW authorization , so i am not sure if this is an authorization problem.
We have a new issue on hand, initially i was able to broadcast thru xml,mhtml, xml formats, yesterday our portal was down, when the portal was brought up, i found that even the ones that were working were now throwing an error.
I spoke with the basis person, and he told me user mappings were lost, but even after restoring the user mapping were restored we still have the problem.
If this error is caused by lack of new authorization, atleast we know what we are dealing with, but for now iam not sure if this error is due to authorization or some settings on the web server side.

Report output as pdf

I followed the instructions from OTN "Rendering Oracle HTML DB Reports as PDFs Using Formatting Objects Processor". All installation steps have been performed.
After clicking on the "Output to PDF Document" link I get the following errormessage in a new browser window:
"The requested URL /htmldb_fop_render.jsp was not found on
this server."
I've changed the path in the htmldb_pdf.js file to:
var g_Render_URL = 'http://131.141.11.163:7777/htmldb_fop_render.jsp';
Any ideas?
Thanks for your help

Depending on your environment (I tried the following with AS 10g / J2EE); you should use http://131.141.11.163:7777/j2ee/htmldb_fop_render.jsp - note the additional j2ee.

PAYABLES NOT GETTING THE REPORT OUTPUT IN PDF AFTER APPLYING RUP5 R12

Hi All,
RDBMS:10.2.0.3.0
Oracle Apps :12.0.4
OS:AIX 5.3
Problem Description:
We are presently facing an issue in Payables not getting the report output in PDF esp for the reports "Invoice Register", Invoice Hold Report and also other reports. We were able to generate the reports till our last test performed on last Thursday. This instance was cloned over the last weekend and probably the new upgrade to RUP5 R12,would have impacted it.
Concurrent Programs submitted are completed normal but on clicking "view output" results in Blank PDF output.
The error message what was shown is as below:
"Adobe Reader could not open 'AcrC.tmp' because it is either not a supported file type or because the file has been damaged (for example, it was sent as an email attachment and wasn't correctly decoded)".
Where could we locate ther above 'AcrC.tmp' of Adobe Reader..
could anyone please share such an experience encountered for resolution..
Would appreciate an early response..
Thanks for your time!
Regards,

I suggest you speak to your DBA/sysadmin. This is not likely to be a reports problem.
Check that you can see the output from apps through the viewer (the report may not hav output anything)
Check whether you can print anything on that printer from apps.
May also be worth checking to see if you can print to another printer from this report.
