How do I import a pdf file with layers into Motion 5?

In earlier version of Motion, you could import a pdf file with all layers or even select layers you wanted to import. You did this by dragging the pdf file into the project and holding it until a popup appeard providing you choices for how you wanted to complete the import. In Motion 5.0.1 however, no such popup appears and it imports the file as a flat image file. Any ideas how to change this pelase?
Thanks
Greg

Thanks Ben & Praveen. In FCP7 It was possible to import PDF files and as you did the import, make choices regarding layers you wished to import. FCPX appears to import PDFs but only as flattened files. I'll try keeping the file in PSD format and importing as you recommend.

How can I import a pdf file into numbers so it will open with a click

How can I import a pdf file into a spreadsheet so that it will open with a click?

You can link to a webpage or an email in Numbers-- that's it.
The best way I found to do this is to enable websharing on your machine (see this article if you are running 10.8: http://lowendmac.com/crews/12lc/web-sharing-mountain-lion.html)
You can then place your pdf files in the folder /Users/<your user name>/Sites/<somefolder>
Then link to this using the url "<your machine name>.local/~<your user name>/<somefolder>/<pdf Name>
My machines name is "Proton" (you can get this from the System Preferences > Sharing pane)
My user name is "wayne"
so I stored a pdf file (DM00027543.pdf) in the folder "/User/wayne/Sites/PDFTest"
and stored the URL "http://proton.local/~wayne/PDFTest/DM00027543.pdf" in the "URL" field of the Hyperlink inspector

How do I edit a PDF file with Adobe PDF Pack?

How do I edit a PDF file with Adobe PDF Pack?

Well, you don't. Editing a PDF is a difficult and fraught business even with the most expensive software.
But PDF Pack lets you export to Word; then often you can edit in Word. Now you can make a new PDF. It might look like the original, or it might not. If small changes matter you might be out of luck. ON NO ACCOUNT USE THIS FOR GOVERNMENT FORMS.

How do I open a PDF file with Adobe Reader if it is in iBooks

I have a number of PDF files in my iBooks library. I just downloaded Adobe Reader for the iPad. I can't see how I can open those PDF files. The only thing I seem to be able to do with them is to open them from iBooks directly. Doing that does not provide me with the features that Adobe Reader would provide (such as searching for particular text, etc.).

Use iTunes to save the PDF FROM iBooks, and to add them to Adobe Reader.
Connect your iPad to your computer. Bring up iTunes on your computer.
To save a PDF FROM iBooks, click on "Books" in the Library section on the left. Select the PDF you want to save and right-click and choose Show in Finder (Show in Explorer in Windows). Go up one level in your computer hierarchy and you'll see all the "Books" (PDFs and eBooks) in iBooks. You can leave them here if you want to view the PDFs in iBooks in the future, or drag them to the Desktop.
To move the PDF TO Adobe Reader:
Return to iTunes. Click on the iPad on the left in Devices. Click on the Apps tab. Scroll down the the File Sharing section as shown below. Click on Adobe Reader. Click the Add button and select the PDFs you identified in the previous step. They'll be added to Adobe Reader

How to save dynamically generated PDF files with proper file name?

Hi,
I need to save the pdf file with default name which generated by
dinamically.
this is the code i am trying to save by default
protected void processRequest (HttpServletRequest request, HttpServletResponse response)
throws ServletException, IOException
OutputStream bos = response.getOutputStream ();
// this returns pdf byte array
byte ios[] = callReport ( reportId_param , fullyQualifiedReportClassName , paramHashMap ) ;
response.setContentType ("application/pdf");
// reportId_param and reportName_param supplied from some where
String docName = reportId_param + "_" + reportName_param ;
if( fromDate_req != null && toDate_req != null )
                String dateStr = fromDate_req + "_to_" + toDate_req ;
                dateStr = dateStr.replaceAll ( "/" , "_" ) ;
                docName = docName + "_" + dateStr ;
// here docName would be like "RP_COM_COLL_01_Message_Details_03_09_2008_to_03_09_2008"
response.setHeader ("Content-Disposition","inline; filename=" + docName ) ;
bos.write (ios);
bos.flush ();
}the above code produces pdf in browser when calling this URL
http://localhost:8080/DAD01TN0801027/RWReportServlet
In browser we can save this PDF by using two ways
1. File -> Save As
2. By using Save Icon within the PDF toolBar
both the actions uses the file name "RWReportServlet" as default instead of using docName
Can any one help me please
Regards
Sakthivel.

That said, your code is not very efficient. You're storing the complete PDF file in memory. What if the PDF file is fairly large? And what if multiple users download multiple large PDF files simultaneously? Your server would run out of memory. Rather use InputStream instead of a raw byte[]. And preferably buffer it.
You should also be setting the content-length header by the way.

How can I open a psd file with layers in touch?

I want to edit a psd file with layers in photoshop touch. Is this possible?

No. (Kind of, sort of.) You can export PS Touch projects for import into desktop Photoshop and have the layers intact for further editing but you cannot do the reverse; any imported PSD will be automatically flattened. (I'm guessing this was done to prevent crashing. PS Touch supports 12 layers max vs. the potential thousands available in desktop Photoshop.)

How can I programatically identify PDF files with embedded images?

Our company has 27,266,949 .PDF files that we're planning to compress in order to save server space.
We don't want to compress any of the .PDF files that have embedded images as to not alter the image's state.
How can we programatically create a list to exclude from the compression process?

Ah, see told you we were new to this and no, my taxs already have enough digits to the balance.
Ok, so based on that, we should be able to use the preflighting tool to identify the PDF’s with images, factor them out, and then continue with lossless compression on the remaining balance.
That will give us the compression we need to save space, but also allow us to stand in the court of law (if the scenario was to ever occur) and proclaim that none of our medical images have ever been altered by compression.
Sound like a reasonable plan?

How do I import a PDF file into an After Effects project?

I'm working on a documentary in which I need to display various pages from some PDF files. When I import the files, it only gives me the first page. Is there a way to import more than the first page? Thanks.

You've got a couple of options that will keep the files as PDF's. First, in Acrobat Pro extract pages using the extract each page to separate files option. Second, In Illustrator, Open the pages you want from the open dialogue and save each as a separate file. You can do the same in Photoshop, but you will end up rasterizing the PDF's. Using Acrobat Pro would be the easiest and fastest.
If you don't have Acrobat Pro, and have not downloaded the demo then you've got a few days to complete your project. The only thing that would foul this up would be protected or locked PDF's.
There's one other thing you should be aware of. Most of the time PDF documents are not designed with video in mind. There may be lots of lines and type that's just too small (1 pixel) to successfully end up on a DVD. You're in a little better shape if you're output is destined only for HD, but beware if you're going for SD TV via DVD.

How to compare two separate PDF files with certain fields identical?

Does anyone know of a way that I could compare two separate PDF files containing the same information in certain locations? Please keep in mind that they contain different information as well. I know that it could be done with importing it to excel and running VBA to format the information to be similar and use formulas to validate information is correct, but this needs to be done very quickly with multiple files through out the day. One way to explain what type of PDF file this is, is think of excel: Column A and J contain the same information but B:I contain different information. Any help or suggestions is greatly appreciated.

This unfortunately was never answered but we found a different solution rather than comparing PDF's.

How do I import binary data files (with header info) into DIAdem?

We have lots of data acquired by nCode datagate. Files are binary data with header info. How do I import this into DIAdem? Typical (short) file attached. Also of interest, can I stream data from Sony PC208/SIR1000 recorders?
Attachments:

I have successfully imported your file into DIAdem using the nCode file filter included with DIAdem. You might have to make that file filter known to DIAdem by following these steps (this assumes you have version 8 of DIAdem):
1. Go to the 'Window' menu in DIAdem and select 'Close all'
2. Go to the 'Settings' menu and select 'GPI-DLL Registration'
3. Click the 'Add' button in the window and select the 'GfSnCode' DLL in the 'DIAdem/AddInfo' directory
4. The program will prompt you to restart.
5. After you have restarted DIAdem, go to the DATA icon, select 'File - Open' from the DATA menu and in the dialog that appears, choose 'nSoft Data File Format' in the 'Files of type:' field.
6. Select your data file and load
That's it.
With regards to your Sony reco
rder data, I would need to get my hands on an actual data file to try it out. In general, DIAdem can import ANY binary file format by creating a header in the 'File - Import via header' section in DATA. If you have lots of data files from the SONY recorder, a DLL can be created for that specific file format with the free DLL toolkit included with DIAdem.
Leave me a message here if you have any additional questions.

How can i open a pdf file with pdf paramter that extention is not ".pdf" in ie?

for example: open in ie with url: "c:\\a.efb#toolbar=0 ", but it can not see anything,the "a.efb" is a sure pdf file that just change the file ext. however i can open the file in ie without paramters!
my english is not well,if you know what i say ,please write the answer,thanks!

I do not know why you want to open a local file in IE, and not directly in Adobe Reader.
Does it work if you rename the file extension to .pdf?
If yes, then maybe it will work if you create a file association for .efb as AcroExch.Document to open with AcroRd32.exe

How to save a Photoshop PDF file with fonts that can be detected in Acrobat?

We created a PDF file using Photoshop CS5, for the purpose of using it as a watermark on documents. We saved this file as Photoshop PDF file, but for some reason the fonts cannot be detected when the file is opened in Adobe Acrobat.
We need it to be recognized by Acrobat so that we can easily add the watermark to documents on a regular basis.
Right now, Acrobat cannot detect the fonts in this file -- even though it is a basic font like Arial -- so when we add the watermark to a document, the fonts in the watermark becomes very degraded in appearance.
Any advice would be hugely appreciated!

I've tried several settings when saving as a PDF, to try to produce a file with fonts that can be detected by Acrobat. I tried the presets listed in guide: Photoshop Help | Saving PDF files
But none have worked.
I cannot use PNG because it is not one of the formats that Acrobat allows for a watermark. And JPG doesn't work because I need transparency.
