How can I send instructions or keystrokes to an open Adobe reader from another program?

Hi Gurus,
In my previous question I opened the Adobe Reader as a help file.
Now consider the case that my help.pdf file is already open on page 100 but the context sensitive help of the next dialog is on page 50. What can I do if I do not want to close the Adobe Reader and reopen it again?
I suppose that the user has not closed the needed file and opened another one.
How can I force the curson jump up to the input field of the page number, and fill it with "50" and send an [enter] to it? Or how can I send a "Ctrl+F", a sought word and an [enter]?
TIA,
Regards
Ferenc

You can use interapplication communication with DDE messages.

Do you mean "Recent Tags" which has an icon a blue-colored folder with a primitive looking magnifying glass over the folder?
That folder does have a limit of 10 results. If you want to create an "All Tags" item on the Boomarks Menu, you can do that by creating your own "smart folder." The process I use is a little involved, so bear with me (also, see the screen shots).
The query used by Recent Tags is:
place:type=6&sort=14'''&maxResults=10'''
So for All Tags we will drop the maximum results limit:
place:type=6&sort=14
''If you prefer your tags in alphabetical order instead of having the most recently used at the top, use this instead:''
place:type=6&sort=1
Go ahead and select the line you want and right-click > copy it.
Next, click the bookmarks drop-down button, expand the Bookmarks Toolbar, right-click any existing item, and choose New Bookmark.
In Location, paste the query, and in name, type All Tags (or your preferred description). When you click Add Bookmark, Firefox will add it, but it doesn't show the blue search folder icon. Drag the bookmark to the menu, and it will turn into a functioning search folder.
Success?

How can I save the images and movies on a external Disk from iphoto program, to protect the images when problems occur in the laptop,

How can I save the images and movies on a external Disk from iphoto program, to protect the images when problems occur in the laptop,

Most Simple Back Up:
Drag the iPhoto Library from your Pictures Folder to another Disk. This will make a copy on that disk.
Slightly more complex: Use an app that will do incremental back ups. This is a very good way to work. The first time you run the back up the app will make a complete copy of the Library. Thereafter it will update the back up with the changes you have made. That makes subsequent back ups much faster. Many of these apps also have scheduling capabilities: So set it up and it will do the back up automatically.
Example of such apps: Chronosync - but there are many others. Search on MacUpdate or the App Store
If you want to back up the Photos only:
Export them using the File -> Export command.
This User Tip
https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-4921
has details of the options in the Export dialogue.

How to operate 3d model in adobe reader from external program

Is it possible to operate 3d model with adobe reader from external program?
Such as selecting a spefic node of 3d model and and highlighting it in adobe reader.
Thanks a lot!

Thanks Irosenth,
One thing I am still not quite sure. Do you mean I can use "Acrobat 3D API" to create the plugin? But seems the "Acrobat 3D API" only works with
Acrobat Pro Extended.
That means the plugin will not be able to work with adobe reader. Is that correct?
Or do you mean any other API which work with the reader?
Thanks.

Can you build and create a resume through the adobe reader from a iPhone or iPad?

Trying to figure if a resume can be built or created on adobe reader from iPhone or iPad?

Mrs. Perrin,
I'm afraid that you don't understand what Adobe Reader does. It's a PDF viewer. It views PDF files created in other programs.
You would need to build a resume in a program like Microsoft Word, Pages, InDesign, etc. Then you'd create a PDF file in one of those programs and you could view it on an iPhone or iPad using Adobe Reader.

How can I copy or print all text highlights in Adobe Reader for Android?

I read many tech books as pdfs. And highlight the parts I want to note.
Since I am now reading them on an Android Tablet using Adobe Reader for Android, I need to find a way to move my highlights to a separate doc when I am done reading. I don't see instructions for this anywhere.
How can I copy all text highlights at once from a document?
And / or
How can I print all text highlights from a document?
Thanks,

Thanks.
Kindle Reader will let me do that with Kindle books and docs that I buy from
Amazon, but not with personal docs (such as pdfs) that I import, unfortunately.
Is a VERY useful feature!

How Can I stop signature fields disappearing on my IPAD Adobe Reader 11

Hi, I am using trial version of Adobe Acrobat XI pro. I have converted a Word document to PDF. I have added text fields, Java scripts to automatically add Todays date as default, Form Reset buttons and Signature fields. File is saved as standard save. All of the above is done in Windows 7 environment. On same computer, In Adobe Reader signature fields are visible although I do not have the means to test it. When the same File is emailed and opened on an IPAD using Adobe Reader 11.2, the signature fields are missing. I intend to have my users access the file (and 30 others like this) on an IPAD. Can someone advise how to resolve the missing signature field issue. It appears that Adobe do not help with such issues as it is not considered an installation issue.

Digital signatures are not supported on mobile versions of Adobe Reader. Other PDF viewers like Readdle's PDF Expert treat them like e-signature fields, allowing the user to draw/apply their drawn signature, but this is not the same as a digital signature. Adobe Reader for iOS allows you to add an e-signature, but it doesn't use digital signature fields for this feature. Instead, you tap the screen, choose the annotations icon, and then the signature icon.

How can I get my interactive PDF to work in Adobe Reader?

I have an interactive PDF that contains hyperlinks to other PDFs. On the desktop or on a USB drive, as long as all the files are in the same folders, the URL destination (PDF name) link works. Can the same work when all the files are in Adobe Reader on a mobile device?
Hyperlinks that lead to another section within the document works, but when I try to click on a link that should open another PDF, it doesn't work. Is this possible to do?
Thanks!

Adobe Reader Mobile only has limited features, and inter-document links are not supported. Can't say if they ever will be, as there are limits imposed by the mobile operating systems (for example you can't have two copies of the same app running).

How can I send an email so it looks like it's from my business domain?

I own the domain example.com and I have set up email forwarding to my personal email address. [email protected] forwards to [email protected] I would like to be able to respond to clients and have it seem like it comes from the [email protected] address. How might I do this? Thanks for all the help!

In order for Thunderbird to be able to proffer the address as a from: address, the address has to be set up in Thunderbird as an incoming address. If it is not possible to set it up as a truly self-standing email address, then you could add it as an identity on a working account.
The remaining part of this is to look at what is being used to send your messages. As an example, if you send using a gmail server, the messages will appear to come from the gmail address associated with the gmail smtp "account" regardless of what address you put into the message itself. Whilst gmail is unusual and perhaps unique in this respect, it does mean that this possibility should be considered.
Another is that some mail providers don't allow "foreign" from: addresses to be used in messages. I have encountered this is the past with two UK ISPs, (bt and freeseeve) whose smtp servers allowed only addresses provided by the ISP, or at least permitted other addresses only when they'd been registered with the ISP-provided mail account. These are clumsy and somewhat naïve attempts to inhibit rogue smtp servers installed on end-users' computers by malware.
In my own case, I lease a domain which apart from a www address and the ability to set up other ad-hoc addresses for ftp and webcams and the like, includes a bundle of email addresses for my family. However, the "real" address is a somewhat clumsy formulation, and some jiggery pokery with a ddns service (zoneedit) allows mx records to be set up so that messages addressed to my domain-connected address to find their way to the "real" accounts. Since I can send a message to my domain-based account, I can set it up in Thunderbird, so it is automatically offered as a candidate from: address when creating or replying to an email message.
In practice, all messages are sent by your smtp server, but are allowed to declare a from: address (and also a separate reply-to address, but that's another matter.) It is possible in your case that the registrar or domain provider also offers an smtp server, but it won't necessarily give your domain as the origin, instead giving the domain of the webhost or registrar or whatever. Choice of smtp often is influenced by other factors, such as can you use it when away from home or your place of business?

How can I extend features and enable typewriter tool in Adobe Reader

Hello,
I have forms that I need users to be able to complete and save, but they also need to be able to use the typewriter tool to type stuff in areas of forms that don't have fields. Is this possible? If I enable the typewriter, I can't extend features and vice-versa...

It's one or the other. Not both.

How can I get Lion 10.7.5 to open Address book from Snow leopard 10.6

The Snow Leopard 10.6.3 address book is version 5.0.1. I don't know the version of the Lion 10.7.5 address book.

Command + option + R
After 15 minutes of downloading from the web, it seems to do the same thing as:
Command + R
in other words, it still wants to install Mountain Lion and not Lion.
Any other thoughts?

How to create a variant to a report from another program at run time

Hi experts,
when i am using FM : /OSP/REPORT_CREATE_VARIANT to create a report variant from a program then i am getting an error 'For object /OSP/ERPNR , number range interval 01 does not exist ', how should i avoid it or can any one help me out to create a report variant from another program at run time with the results of the program.so that i can execute the report from here with this variant

If i understand you,
- You can use a FM like [RS_CREATE_VARIANT|https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/sdn/advancedsearch?cat=sdn_all&query=rs_create_variant+&adv=false&sortby=cm_rnd_rankvalue] to create a variant and then use it in the [SUBMIT|http://help.sap.com/erp2005_ehp_03/helpdata/EN/fa/096d67543b11d1898e0000e8322d00/frameset.htm] statement USING SELECTION-SET.
- But you may also use SUBMIT with WITH parameters which doesnt require variant creation and with much less programming efforts.
- You can mix the two solutions also.
So what is you actual requirement, also look at some documentation like [ Scheduling a Job: Full-Control Method|http://help.sap.com/erp2005_ehp_03/helpdata/EN/fa/096ce5543b11d1898e0000e8322d00/frameset.htm]
