How can I programati​cally control the names of files output from Labview into .pdf format (ie with Adobe PDF Writer or Distiller)​?

I would like to save some data forms for a standard test controlled with labview in a pdf format. Due to the large number of forms and test reports, I would like to have Labview automatically assign the .pdf file name based on test number already contained in the labview code. How can I do this.
Note: This question is very similar to:
"Labview and Adobe Acrobat output" posted by John Balone on 1/26/2000. The reponses offered good suggestions but it is not clear to me how to implement them.

This information is essential if you plan to use the Acrobat Distiller printer driver and any of the examples listed here:

  • How can I edit or change the name of a bookmark in the bookmark library window?

    How can I edit or change the name of a bookmark in the bookmark library window? I can figure out just about everything else I can do in the window, but can't seem to edit a bookmark.
    thank you

    In the Bookmarks Manager you can change the properties of a bookmark in the Details pane at the bottom right.<br />
    That Info pane has a More/Less button to show or hide extra properties.
    * You can change the Properties (including the name) of a Bookmark or Tag in the Details (Properties) pane at the bottom of the right pane in the Bookmarks Manager (Bookmarks > Show All Bookmarks: Shift+Ctrl+B) after selecting an item. You can rename a tag by selecting the Tags folder in the left panel and change the name in the Info pane at the bottom right.
    * You can make changes to a Bookmark in the Bookmarks menu drop down list or in the side bar (View > Sidebar > Bookmarks, Ctrl+B) via the Properties entry in the right-click context menu.
    * You can open a bookmark in a tab and click the yellow (blue on Mac) star in the location bar to open the "Edit This Bookmark" dialog and see in which folder a bookmark is located.

    leave it as is make it a grayscale tiff import int Illustrator and color it it in Illustrator like this
    Or trace over it with the brush tool aand then give it a color ground.
    Or do the original over and do a cleaner job with no tone or a minimum of tone. Then Live trace.

  • How can I completely remove iTunes and all associated files/programs from my Windows PC?

    How can I completely remove iTunes and all associated files/programs from my Windows PC?

    iTunes, along with Quick Time, iCloud, Apple Software Update, Bonjour, Apple Mobile Device Support and Apple Application Support can all be removed from your PC by uninstalling them using 'Uninstall or change a program' in Control Panel. The only obvious thing that will be left behind is your iTunes library which remains untouched. If you want to remove that as well it's just a question of deleting it.
    Hope that helps.

  • How can I tell what control the modulation wheel is assigned to?

    Hello,
    I understand how to reassign the Mod Wheel and other controls with Command-L. However, once I deleted my learned assignments I realized that the modulation wheel had not been working as it should with the thousands of other presets. Apparently, when I assigned it to the EVP88's Tremolo, it became deactivated from controlling all sorts of fun stuff on the synths.
    My questions is in a two parts:
    1. If I open up some presets in the ES E (for example), I hear the mod wheel tweaking the sound, but I don't see the control it's manipulating when I'm looking at the instrument window on the screen. How can I find out what control the mod wheel is linked to in each instrument?
    2. If I want to reassign the mod wheel on a particular instrument preset, how can I tell logic that this assignment should only be aplicable in a particular preset, and to forget that reassignment when swiching instruments or presets?
    Thanks in advance,

    I don't recall there being a way that I've seen to find out if the Hotspot is connected to Band 4 or Band 13. The diagnostic pages are very basic.
    A good rule of thumb with Band 4 is to consider the following. If you have 3 bars or less, you're likely not on Band 4. The device will head to Band 13 as it will usually provide better signal reliability. If you're indoors, you're more likely to be on Band 13.
    Also take note that Wi-Fi is a common limiter on the speeds you'll get. You'll usually see nothing more than 30Mbps on most Wireless N devices. Connect to the Hotspot using USB Tethered mode and speeds should be a bit better.

  • How can I programati​cally add items to an Expression​Edit ComboBox?

    Items can be statically added using the ActiveX Properities/ComboBoxItems.  How can this be done programatically from C#?  I am using C# 2008 and TestStand 4.1.
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    Doug-
    That was the answer.  I was missing an assembly reference which was why I wasn't able to use the ExpressionEdit.ComboBoxItems methods.  I had "NationalInstruments.TestStand.Interop.UI.AxContro​ls" reference in my project but also needed to have "NationalInstruments.TestStand.Interop.UI" and "NationalInstruments.TestStand.Interop.Ui.Support" assemblies.  ExpressionEdit.ComboBoxItems.Insert() is working fine now.
    Without your input, I wouldn't have gone back to examine my references.  Thanks.

  • How can i get and save the name of the file

    Hi all
    in my program i'm dealing with several text files each has its own name
    after doing some process on each i do save the output as output.txt
    can i add the file name before or after the output.txt
    i.e i want the name of the file to be part of the saved output
    filenameOutput.txt
    or
    outputFilename.txt
    any ideas?????

    Just write it - somewhere in your code you have to have the file name anyway, or you couldn't write to that file.

  • HT1296 How can I stop and delete facebook names and phone numbers from my iphone

    How can I stop facebook names and phone numbers from being downloaded to my iphone and how can I delete the ones that are already there?

    A better way might be
    Settings > Facebook > Contacts > turn off.
    There are other Facebook settings you might want to leave on. But I also prefer to turn off Calendar there as well to keep every Facebook friends birthday from clogging up my calendar app.

  • How can I restore up to the current day after restoring from a disk image??

    I do two types of backups... Every night I connect my MB to TM and it backs up changes made throughout the day. On Saturdays I do the same. I bring up time machine and force to backup NOW. I then turn off time machine. I then perform an image backup of the full disk and keep that full weekly image offsite.
    Well I upgraded to SL, and once again many of my drivers still don't work with SL particularly a Verizon Broadband card that I was provided drivers for that have a bug. So back to Leopard I go again.
    I restored the full image backup using boot from DVD & Disk utility. This worked fast and quickly restored my MBP to exactly the point where I forced the backup to time-machine. I had done some work Sunday morning, and made changes to a bunch of files. I forced a TM backup later that night to ensure to catch these changes. After the failure of the SL load, I restored as I noted from an image which is much faster.
    The question is... I am now at the same point of Sat morning. How can I restore to the point where I was Saturday night just before I did a test upgrade to SL if I touched a bunch of stuff. (Some work files, some personal files). So what I really need to restore is the files backed up after my full image from Saturday AM? Any way to do this without knowing the files I updated?
    CLearly TM knows what files were changed and backed them up Saturday night before I performed the upgrade??
    Thanks!
    Mark

    The easiest, most reliable way is to do a full system restore, as of the Saturday night Time Machine backup. See #14 in the Frequently Asked Questions *User Tip* at the top of this forum.
    If for some reason you don't want to do that, you can get a list of the items that were actually backed-up, via +Time Tracker+ or +Backup Loupe.+ See #8 in the FAQ Tip.

  • AUSST setup. How can I easily verify that the computers (macs) are updating from the AUSST server?

    I have set up everything according the recipe. Watched Karl Gibson video about this probably five times.
    Server is working
    Users have AdobeUpdate.Overwrites file in place
    Everyone is getting updates (could not do that before by themselves).
    How can I easily see that updates are downloaded from the AUSST server instead of directly from Adobe online?

    I found this out on my own.
    The answer is found (on a mac) in the /Applications/Utilities/Console
    Look in the sidebar for Adobe Download
    DML.log
    Hope this helps someone.

  • How can I store movies in the cloud and access them from my devices?

    Hello,
    I would like to store movies in the cloud and access them from my device without having to download them to the device because there is not enough space on the harddrive to store them on it. How would I do this? Would I have to download the movies to my PC or could I store them directly in the cloud?
    Thanks,
    Tyler

    Unfortunately I don't use sugarsync myself, I have a dropbox account and it works slightly differently.
    As I understand it you can upload files to a folder in sugarsync from your computer without having them sync to any of your devices. You can access that folder from any of your devices, and although you would need to download them in order to play the video file, you could then delete them without deleting the files in the sugarsync folder in the cloud.

  • When making a slideshow in iPhoto some iTunes files can no longer be found (cannot find link). How can I relink iphoto to the moved itunes files?

    Hello everyone :-)
    I am Using Iphoto 09 ver 8.1.2 & itunes ver. 10.2.2 in this situation.
    I have recently moved my iphoto library & Itunes library files to a large external hard drive.
    I have successfully set the computer to read / run both libraries from the hard drive & they are working well as a stand alone. ( I Have done this before)
    Unforntualey this time I foolishly moved some itunes album folders around from compulations / various artists into the main media file before checking into what the ramifications would be.
    After searching on here I learned that was not advised as itunes would not be able to automaticly find them since I moved them.
    In itunes clicked on some of the exclamtion marks of the songs that I moved & linked them up to the main media folder so they could be now found by itunes. I believe itunes asked to look there in that location for all missing files & I selected that option.
    It appears to have worked as when I click on them in itunes they now play.. yeah!
    But now I am finding that when I try to add certain songs for slideshows in iphoto & imovie that those moved songs cannot be found by those programs :-(
    ( I assume the same would be true for iDVD)
    So my questions are... Is there now a way to have those other programs find the moved songs?
    I do have a older backup of my itunes media & I can try & move the album folders back to the original place they where by comparing the two but it is a very large library of 40k songs... so I thought to ask the knowledge & wisdom of the community before I attempted any further fixes.
    It would take a bit of time but it could be done & I don't want to just use the older copy of my itunes as I have made many additions of albums to the library & added allot of album artwork as well. (Stuff that "itunes" & "tune up" couldn't automatically find)
    Thanks in advance for any advice on this silly mistake I made.
    Sal

    Try the following:  delete the iPhoto preference file, <b><i><font color="maroon">com.apple.iPhoto.plist</font></i></b>, that resides in your Home/Library/Preferences folder.
    NOTE: If you're moved your library from its default location in your Home/Pictures folder you will have to point iPhoto to its new location when you next open iPhoto by holding the the Option key.  You'll also have to reset the iPhoto's various preferences.
    Also delete the com.apple.iApps.plist file from the same Preferences folder.  Then launch iTunes and then iPhoto.  See if that will restore the links.

  • How to load a curve and the view automatically in diadem from labview ?

    Hello,
    I want to automate a system for processing and analyzing data and for that I am using labview.
    I recently discovered software diadem and already I am able to send data from labview.
     I would now like to obtain a curve directly in the "view" is that possible?

    Hello Beneuss,
    You can create a layout template in VIEW, save it to disk and then load it when DIAdem is started. These two lines will automatically load a VIEW layout called "Example" and display the VIEW window.
    Call View.LoadLayout("Example.tdv")
    Call WndShow("VIEW")
    To automatically have a curve show up in VIEW, make sure that you assign the correct curves in the VIEW layout before you save the layout. This is done with the drag&drop functionality from the DataPortal. Just assign the channel you wish to see, and then save the layout. It will "remember" all the channel assignments and automatically show all the channels you had assigned, as long as you don't change the channel names.
    Please let me know if that helps and if there is anything else we can help you with.
