How big can a word document be before Pages (iPad1) crashes?

I have an iPad1 and was thinking of using it for some quick edits. Since my MacBook struggles a bit with some of my larger word documents, I wondered how the iPad would fare. I don't want to waste the $10 on Pages if it isn't going to work for me. My documents tend to be 100-400 pages, with TOC's, indices, tables, and figures spread through out. The file sizes (of .doc and .docx files) range from 2MB-12MB. Is the idea of editing these documents on an iPad just a dream?

There is no fixed limit on what Pages for iPad can handle and 2-15 MB is doable.
That said, 100-400 pages is not a "consumer" level document. Thats a very large document. If Word on a full blown computer is having issues with your documents then Pages on a Mobile device may struggle.
Pages may run slowly with that number of pages and complexity you indicate. Embeded graphics take more of a tole than simple text. In addition it may not preserve some of the unique formatting you might have from Word.
It might be wise to take an example document to an Apple Retail store or Best Buy and load it on one of their iPads and see what it does.
Cheers.

How big can a mySQL db be before performance degradation?

Hi there,
I have a Flex app that accesses a mySQL database via PHP built using the Flex Builder wizard. It works fine but I have some questions about how big the database can be before the loading of tables begins to bog down the application too much.
Basically the way it works, as learned by David Gassner's Flex Bible and other sources, is that when my Flex app launches, it loads all the tables in the entire database into the Flex app.
Then, the different bits of information are displayed based on filter functions. Each user that logs in has different amounts of their own personal information that can be viewed and updated.
The thing is, based on the way it's built, ALL information in the entire database is loaded into Flex, then it's filtered based on which user has logged in. This works fine really, but I have one table in that database that has grown to about 20,000 rows of really simple text-based information. According to phpMyAdmin that table's usage is 1,971.1 KiB, which is what, almost 2 MB?
The thing I'm concerned about is as this mySQL database grows, the loading of my Flex app's data upon launch will become so slow for everyone because it may get so big. Is this a feasible concern? How big have your SQL databases been?
Is it possible in Flex to somehow filter the data on the server first from mySQL, then load only the required data up? So that users that have very little data in their account don't have to wait for the entire mySQL database to load first?
Any advice about this is greatly appreciated.

Thanks, that makes sense.
I know how to pass a variable from Flex to a PHP script. Is there anyone that can help me modify the canned Flex PHP Wizard script for "Find All" so that it simply takes my "where" variable that I pass to it and returns only the data that fits it. Just like this:
SELECT *
FROM `myTable`
WHERE `variable_id` =7
Currently the generated Flex Builder PHP just gets everything in the entire database but I'm not a PHP wiz and I can imagine that the canned PHP script can be easily modified to accept my variable and then run the query as usual.
Any help would be appreciated and I would be willing to pay someone to help me on this one.
Thanks

How to insert a word document or an RTF document into RichTextEditor?

How to insert a word document or an RTF document into af:richTextEditor. I am using Apache POI for reading the Word document and getting its contents. I am able to display the whole content of the document except the table and image within the document. The data in the table is getting displayed as a string and not as a table inside the editor.
Can we insert a word/RTF document into a rich text editor?
Can we insert images into the rich text editor?
The following is the code that I used. On clicking a button the word document has to be inserted into the <af:richTextEditor>.
<af:richTextEditor id="rte1" autoSubmit="true"
immediate="true"
columns="110" rows="20">
<af:dropTarget dropListener="#{SendEmail.richTextEditorDrop}">
<af:dataFlavor flavorClass="java.lang.String"/>
</af:dropTarget>
</af:richTextEditor>
<af:commandButton text="Insert at position" id="cb2">
<af:richTextEditorInsertBehavior for="rte1" value="#{RichTextEditorUtil.docFile}"/>
</af:commandButton>
Java Code: I am using Apache POI for reading the word document.
import org.apache.poi.hwpf.HWPFDocument;
import org.apache.poi.hwpf.extractor.WordExtractor;
public String getDocFile() {
File docFile = null;
WordExtractor docExtractor = null ;
WordExtractor exprExtractor = null ;
try {
docFile = new File("C:/temp/test.doc");
//A FileInputStream obtains input bytes from a file.
FileInputStream fis=new FileInputStream(docFile.getAbsolutePath());
//A HWPFDocument used to read document file from FileInputStream
HWPFDocument doc=new HWPFDocument(fis);
docExtractor = new WordExtractor(doc);
catch(Exception exep)
System.out.println(exep.getMessage());
//This Array stores each line from the document file.
String [] docArray = docExtractor.getParagraphText();
String fileContent = "";
for(int i=0;i<docArray.length;i++)
if(docArray[i] != null)
System.out.println("Line "+ i +" : " + docArray);
fileContent += docArray[i] + "\n";
System.out.println(fileContent);
return fileContent;

Hi,
images are not yet supported. Its an open enhancement request for the rich text editor.
For tables, it seems they are supported but in a basic way (just HTML 4 style) if I interpret the tag documentation correct

How to launch a word document through VC

Hi All,
I have requirement which is as follows:
I need to provide help for the screens of my application for which there are separate word documents which describes the process of using the application.
There are about 6 help documents (MS word). I need to have a "Help" link on every screen. On click of the "Help" link a new window must open and the word document should be displayed. Can the word documents be stored on the server?
How can we achieve this. The Visual Composer version is 7.1
Regards,
Poojith MV
Edited by: Poojith M V on Nov 18, 2009 10:15 AM

Hi Poojith MV,
You can use a Dynamic Web Project to upload documents, images etc. to a J2EE server (i.e. a server that runs VC).
This is done in the NWDS.
You create a new Dynamic Web Project (from the File -> New -> Project... dialog) with an EAR project, copy the documents to the WebContent folder in the Dynamic Web Project, export the EAR project as SAP EAR file and deploy that file to the VC server (configured in Window -> Preferences -> SAP AS Java). Then you can access the file using the Dynamic Web Project name (http://<server>:<port>/<dynamic web project name>/<document name>).
Let me know if you encounter a problem with this method.
Best regards,
Tal.

How to attch a word document to Purchase requisation ME51N

Hi
I am facing a problem to attach a drawing document or word document to the transaction ME51N how I can attach a document for purchase requisation, when I tried to click attch document in item overview sub menu bar . one pop up screen is coming in that it is asking Document type and document part and version , where i can do the customising attach the document .
can any body help me to get the solution .
Thanks in advance
Srinivas .Rangi

Hi,
Do you need the document to be visible outside of ME52?
You can attach a document to a requisitions by clciking on the icon underneath the OK code field (on the line that says "Change Purchase req.......).
It is an Icon that is often overlooked.
Click on it and then click on the "create" Icon.
the problem with this isthat the attachment will only be to that requisitions in that transaction, it will not be carried forward to the PO.
If you want attachments that stay with the document throughout the process then this is available in ECC6 but not in 4.6 or earlier (not sure about 4.7, I don't think it works there either)

How to convert a Word Document to SAP SCript standard text.

Hi team,
Does any one know how to convert a word document or text in Word format to standard text.
So that we can use that standard text in Script output.
This might be very useful if we need to convert a lot of text into standard text.

Hi,
Create the name of the standard text you want in SO10.
When the editor is called up, select Text -> Upload and then browse for your file(s). Must be saved in RTF format in Word remember.

You can email it to yourself, or if you have an app on the iPhone that can open Word documents, you can probably sync the document from your computer through iTunes:
