Header / Footer in Analysis PDF

Hello,
I'm trying to add a default header / footer to all pdf generated by Analysis.
I looked at the section "18.6.2.1 Adding a Default Header or Footer to New Analyses" in OBIEE system administrator guide and followed exatcly the steps.
I created a new file like this and restarted the server:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<WebMessageTables xmlns:sawm="com.siebel.analytics.web.messageSystem">
<WebMessageTable system="Answers" table="ViewDefaults">
<WebMessage name="kuiCriteriaDefaultViewElements" translate="no"><HTML>
<view signature="compoundView" >
<pageProps pageSize="a4">
<pageFooter showOnDashboard="true" show="true">
<zone type="top"><caption>Acme Confidential</caption>
<displayFormat fontColor="#FF0000"/></zone>
</pageFooter>
</pageProps>
</view>
</HTML>
</WebMessage>
</WebMessageTable>
</WebMessageTables>
The problem is that when I do a new analysis, when clicking results tab, it appears an error "Bad XML Instance .......... Line:2 Col:811, Unresolved type 'saw:top' found in xsi:type handling"
Does anyone know how to solve this problem ?
Many thanks
Victor

Hello,
I could get it work by changing the zone tag from <zone type="top"> to <zone type>
Now I can see the footer in the compound layout. But when I export a pdf file the footer is not shown !!
Anyone ?

Is it is possible to identify Heading level, Title, Header, Footer, Paragraph in PDF using SDk or Script

Hi Friends
Is it is possible to identify Heading level, Title, Header, Footer, Paragraph in PDF using SDK or Script

In an ordinary PDF there is nothing to identify, the information does not exist. Just text at locations, the structure is entirely in the mind of the viewer. For tagged PDFs, yes. This requires a very detailed knowledge of the PDF spec and tagging, and writing a plug-in in C/C++. And of course it requires that the tagging is correct. Since tagging is often added automatically, it is often useless for real structural info. Who thought it was a good idea to tag automatically...!

For seeing the header footer on the xml publisher desktop you need to Patch 5579683
and follow these instructions
1. From Template Builder, select Help -> About Template Builder.
2. Go to the Workspace directory and change to the subdirectory jlib.
3. Rename existing xdocore.jar and copy xdocore.jar from this patch.
You can find the patch on metalink.
Hope this helps.

Thanks
Mohamed Idris

Hi Lenonard,
Thanks for your reply, I am refering JavaScript for Acrobat API Reference, Version 8 document , but i could not find the right syntax for the above task.
I am sucessfull writing script for page label but not for insertion of page number in the footer section.
Regarding combining PDF files i could merge file and it comes as single PDF file not like assembeling pdf files as package.
Please let me know the syntax and if i am looking at not right documentation, please let me know the document name to refer.
Thanks again.

Unsupported version Error while generating header and footer for the PDF

hi
I want to genrate header and footer for the PDF file however on the call of the EndPage class i got a Unsupported Version Error Unsupported major minor Version Error and Class loader Define class
What has gone wrong ?.

Can you provide more information about what you were trying to do? In particular, what does your code like like?
Also, can you include the stack trace, and the complete error message?

IDCS4 Export to PDF (Header/Footer Screwed Up) in PDF...Possible Solution?

THE PROBLEM (See "Evil footer setup.pdf"):
When you convert a IDCS4 document to a PDF while using a 2-page master, the PDF may be missing the odd or even pages. The page content (silly face) is there, but the header and/or footer is screwed up on either the odd or even pages. The even pages are mess up in this example.
THE REASON:
INCS4 does not like a single (header and footer) box to be dragged across both pages. Whe you do, you get them on one page or the other. Anything in theses header/foot goes asta-la-bye bye. In "Evil footer setup.pdf" both the header and footer boxes were two separate boxes drawn on one side, then dragged across the other page.
THE SOLUTION: (See "Happy footer setup.pdf")
On the 2-page master, set up the even (left pages) first with all of the header and footer information (include bleeds). If your using colored boxes for the header and foot area, put them on the bottom layer and put all text and page numbers on a new layer above. In the "Happy footer setup" example, the even (left) page header is identified by light cyan and the footer is identified by light magenta. Once the left side is done, group it, dup it and move it to the odd page (right side). The header on the odd (right) pages is now dark cyan while the footer is dark magenta. Once boths sides are set up, overlap each header and footer onto the opposite page by 1/8 of an inch to cover any gaps (seen in the happy example). This is assuming the header on both sides is the same color.
The "Sample Master Pages.pdf" (TOP) shows a single box header and footer dragged across 2 pages. (BOTTOM) shows a single box header and footer on each individual page. Remember the layers. Compare the sample to Happy and Evil and you'll get the idea.
Hope this helps someone.

This MAY be solved by the 6.0.4 update. See the release notes for item #2299929.

Header Footer tool replaces headers and footers in PDF

The header/footer tool replaces the headers and footers in my PDF, this header and footer I am referring to was not added in Adobe but was added in Word 2010, when I tried to add an additional header to my PDF (I added a page number) it replaced the footers that was already in my document. The only way I could get around this is with adding a header instead of replacing, which is quick fix, but as soon as you add more pages to your PDF and want to re-apply the header/footer to update the page number that I added to the header it would remove ALL headers and footers from the PDF.

I am having the same problem. Here are the steps. We created a series of documents in WORD 14.0.7143.5000 32 bit. Each WORD document has a footer specific to that document (i.e. WORD documents are: Business Plan, Market Study, etc. which are each a separate WORD document, each with a separate WORD footer). Each WORD document is converted to PDF with Adobe X. The PDF documents are then combined into a single document with Adobe X. Then with Adobe X we create a new footer (i.e. Document Package, with date, etc.) which is applied to each page of the Document Package. So each page of the Document Package SHOULD have a Footer of : (1) On the Left Margin - the original WORD document (i.e. Business Plan) and (2) on the right margin - the footer inserted with Adobe X (Document Package footer).
Here is where it breaks. The WORD footers are retained when we convert from WORD to Adobe. The WORD footers for each document are also retained when we combine the several PDF's into a single PDF (Document Package). It is only when we add the Adobe Footer to the Document Package that we lose all the original WORD footers. The result is the Document Package has only that one Document Package footer (on the right margin), and we lose each of the footers which were in the original WORD documents (left footers). I tried this two ways. First was to modify the footer, and the second way was to add a new footer - neither works - both delete the original WORD footers. Also, it is interesting because the original WORD footers do not show up in the ADOBE footer box (the screen where you enter the text and other information for the footer).
The use of the Watermark might be possible, and it is probably the work around we will need to use, but it is a poor solution. Please let me know when fixed.

Shrink image on PDF page to make room for header & footer

I have an application that prints to pdf with no header and footer, and does not leave wide enough margins for me to add the header & footer using Acrobat without overwriting part of the document/graphic on the page.
What would be the EASIEST way for me to reduce the image and widen top & bottom margins on each page of a .pdf document without cropping away part of the image, so that I can add the header & footer to each page?
Thank you in advance for your suggestions.

Use the graphics package that you used to create the PDF to add the margins. You might also print to a new PDF to add margins. Graphics do not scale in a PDF, at least in my experience.

How to Modify the Header/Footer that's created when printing to PDF?

Hi all,
How do I modify the header/footer that is added when I use the Adobe PDF printer in another application, like MS Word? Currently it adds the entire path of the file as the header, which is really annoying.
I'm not talking about the Header/Footer command in Acrobat's "Document" menu. In fact, that command doesn't even recognise the header that's generated by the Adobe PDF printer.
I'm using Acrobat Pro 8.1.3, btw.
Thanks :)

Generally you should set the whole look of the page in your application and then print to the Adobe PDF printer as you have been doing. If you are using a browser, there are header and footer commands for the printer that are typically set by the browser - those can be modified there. The PDF should look just like the preview in the application, that is the point of a PDF.

Adobe Acrobat Pro 9 Header/Footer

It is easy to add, edit or remove a footer on a PDF document.
It is possible to add the page number, the date, or a text by the "Document - Header & Footer".
My question is: Is it possible to include an AutoText in the footer of a PDF? I need the Filename in the text of the footer. Now, the only way I found is to manualy type all the differents file names but I have a lots of documents.
How can I include the FileName on a foother of a PDF document and is it possible to easily apply this setup to hundreds of documents.
Thanks in advance

You could use the watermark feature to stamp the information

Report header/footer not getting displayed ondashboard

We added deault header/footer to OBI reports as per the steps given in OBI Presentation services
administrator guide (section 3: Administering Oracle BI Answers):
By adding xml code as below under 'OracleBIData\web\msgdb\customMessages' folder
<WebMessage name="kuiCriteriaDefaultViewElements" translate="no"><HTML>
<view signature="compoundView" >
<pageProps pageSize="a4">
<pageFooter showOnDashboard="true" show="true">
<zone type="top"><caption>Footer Text</caption>
<displayFormat fontColor="#FF0000"/></zone>
</pageFooter>
</pageProps>
</view>
</HTML>
</WebMessage>
The 'Footer text' is coming in all new requests created, but when we add that request to a
dashboard as embedded section, the footer is not displayed. Can anybody please provide some
information that how we can get any customized text/link added in report footer to get displayed
on the dashboard page.
Thanks!

Hi..
yes, whatever the headers/footers you have mentioned in report will not be shown in dashboard..
But if you mention the report link - download (don't specify headers/footers for dashboard at this time), when you download that report you can see the headers/footers in that report..
But when you use download option for whole dashboard, you can't see those h/f s unless you mention the h/f s for the dashboard...
This is expected, because when user download the dashboard he shouldn't see the 2 h/f s.
So, you need to mention the print pdf s in edit dashboard.
Hope it's clear..
Thanks & Regards

Acrobat 8.1.2 crashes when Document Header & Footer Add .. is invoked

I'm running Acrobat 8.1.2 PPC on a PowerBook G4/1.67 Ghz running Leopard 10.5.4. I haven't used the page numbering function in quite a while, since before I upgraded to Leopard. Today I assembled a course packet of 150+ pages from 50 or so individual pdf documents. All was fine until I wanted to put a page number in the footer by invoking Document > Header & Footer > Add.... It either crashes Acrobat after putting a spinning system cursor (more frequently) or simply does nothing. I've tried "Examine" to remove things, but it doesn't help (and it removes bookmarks even when you tell it not to!). Running the PDF Optimizer on this document crashes Acrobat as well!
Invoking Document > Header & Footer > Add.... on other documents does work. Let me stress that this composite document was created by Acrobat itself! The workaround I found was to open the document in Preview, do Print > Save as pdf, and *then* invoke Document > Header & Footer > Add....
Has anyone else seen these problems? Are these remaining incompatibilities with Leopard? Advanced > Document Processing > Number Pages doesn't seem to add page numbers!

I don't think it makes a difference. An Adobe engineer has confirmed that this doc has revealed a bug in both Acrobat Pro 8 and 9.

How do I add a header/footer to a document?

I am using Adobe X Standard, version 10.1.2 and everything I am reading tells me to go to tools>pages>Header & Footer>Add Header & Footer, but once I click on tools to the left, the only options I have are export and create pdf files and send files. There is no tools option in the tool bar on the top. File, edit, view, window & help are my only options. How can I add a header/footer to a document?!

I think you might be opening your Pdf document in Adobe Reader. If you try open your pdf document in Adobe Standard and check again as far as your option are concerned you should be able to do that.

What you describe tends to indicate that you're using Reader, not Acrobat. If you do have Acrobat installed, make sure you're using it and not Reader.
