How do I link to a PDF from a web app?

Hello, can anybody help me with this please.
I have a web app that is listing current vacancies (see it here http://pattonnz.businesscatalyst.com/about-situationsvacant )
As you can see the link to the PDF job description file is not right. What is the best way to link to a PDF? At present the web app is using a field type "Text (hyperlink)" to make the connection to the uploaded pdf but this obviously isn't working right (well it works, but it's a bit mangled and unnacceptable). There doesn't appear to be a field that will let me direct a link to the appropriate folder and file.
Web apps are pretty new to me so any help greatly appreciated.
Cheers
Grant

Hi Grant.
Delete that custom field.
Create a custom field type - image. Image is actually media type and you can select more then just images. This will allow you to browse the file in the admin and upload it.
The tag will be what you call it.... {tag_pdffile} - This would try and render an image html if you used this so...
You just get the raw value which is _value so... {tag_pdffile_value} and you form your own HTML in your layout.....
<a href="{tag_pdffile_value}" title="Download this file">Download PDF</a>

    Then all your data are lost, unless you backed them up (e.g. to https://cloud.acrobat.com/files).

  • Printing Word documents to PDF from Office Web Apps Server 2013 yields inaccessible PDF files

    I have Office Web Apps Server 2013 SP1 with March 2015 CU applied. The version shows up as "15.0.4569.1506" using Todd Klindt's
    method. When anonymous users view the Word documents online through the Office Web Apps, they have an option to print them to PDF. The PDF file that gets generated as a result isn't accessible
    (i.e. it isn't WCAG-compliant). using Adobe Acrobat Pro to check it I can see that it is missing tags, for example. The source Word document was made fully accessible from the point of view of Microsoft Office accessibility tools.
    When viewing the same document in Word Online in Office 365, I get an extra option  "Download as PDF". The PDF document produced is accessible. If I save a Word 2013 document as a PDF from within the Word editor, it also generates accessible
    PDF.
    I was wondering if the reason for the accessibility problem that I have misconfigured my on-premises Office Web Apps,  or perhaps the accessibility compliance isn't built in yet. If the latter is true, I was wondering if someone could indicate whether
    or not this is on the list of upcoming CUs.
    thanks in advance. 

    Just check my WAC install, no this is likely an Office online only feature, at least at this point in time.

  • How do I down load a PDFs from the web?

    ccan anyone help me with this issue?

    Hi bdreed51,
    Would you provide more information about your problem so that we can help you?
    Did you use Safari (the default web browser for iOS) on your iPad/iPhone to try to (a) open a PDF document in Adobe Reader for iOS or (b) download a PDF document to your iPad/iPhone by tapping a link or button in a web page?
    Is a PDF document already opened in Safari?  What do you see on the screen as a result?

  • How to generate a report in pdf from a stored proc

    Hi, i need guidance on how to generate a report in pdf from an oracle stored proc.
    The environment is oracle 10gas + 10gdb.
    On a specific event, a PL/SQL stored procedure is called to do some processing and at the end of the processing to generate report which has to be sent to the printer (and optionally previewed by the user).
    Can anyone assist me with this?

    Hi ,
    One 'simple' way is by using the DBMS_SCHEDULER db package and the procedure CREATE_JOB(....) using as job_type the value 'EXECUTABLE'...
    Read for further info in 'PL/SQL Packages and Types Reference'.
    If you have access to OEM ... you can configure this there using wizard.....
    Other way is to use the External Procedure call capabiblity of Oracle DB Server...:

  • How do I convert emails to PDF from Outlook to make a file on the PC?

    how do I convert emails to PDF from Outlook to make a file on the PC

    It is always tough for anyone when we need to save our emails into one file for future reference. You could either do it manually or can use a simple tool to Convert all your messages into one pdf file . This Single pdf file can be used if we need to read any past email. you can easily convert oulook to pdf in no time. If you are converting several email messages, you can either save them as separate files with initial layout fully intact or combine them into one big PDF document.

  • Using Adobe Pro X I cannot create a PDF from a web page.

    After a recent upgrade from a previous version of Firefox, I am now unable to create a PDF from a web page using the Adobe Pro toolbar on the web page.  A "save as" box appears and then the conversion process dies.  I can print the page using Adobe Pro as my printer and it works fine. I can create other docs with Adobe Pro.   How do I fix this on my browser?
    Thanks.

  • Acrobat Pro XI: Creating a PDF from a Web Page

    When I try to create a PDF from a Web page using Acrobat XI, I get the Error Code "Nothing done" and "Authorization Failure", but it doesn't happen on all webistes. Does anyone know what could be causing this and how to fix it? I'm using the trial version of Acrobat Pro XI on a Mac. Same result with either Firefox or Safari.
    Thanks.

    It's likely a HTTPS site or you have an authenticating proxy server where you are required to enter a password to acess the web page.

  • Opening pdfs from the web

    Hello,
    I am having a wierd issue with pdfs from the web.  I have adobe acrobat pro 9 (patched up to date) and I have enabled the 'do not open in browser' setting.  When I click a pdf link, it opens acrobat 9 as it should but the file name/file type is not .pdf.  I do not have reader installed and cannot figure it out.  The main issue is when I click the email link, it sends the link for the unknown file rather than the .pdf as I intended.
    The short term work around is to save as and reopen the newly saved .pdf.
    Any help would be much appreciated. 
    Thanks!

    Go to Adobe Acrobat Reader Preferences and, under Internet, it asks if you want to display PDFs in Acrobat Reader (or Acrobat Pro, etc.). If checked, uncheck the box. Then CTRL-click on a PDF file and select "Open With". If you hold down the Option key at this point, this Open With" will change to "Always Open With". Select Preview. That should do it. Watch out for Reader or some other Adobe programs that ask if you want to make Reader the default PDF viewer when you open them. Always answer "NO".

  • My Mac won't print a pdf from the web

    My iMac will not print any pdf from the web. The printer (an ho Photosmart plus) will only print a blank shet of paper.

    Try saving the file then, then open Preview and open the file and try printing again. If if the quality is still bad then it's the file itself.

  • Silent print a PDF from a web page using Flex. We are targeting Windows and Mac with Arcobat reader installed

    We are planning to Silent print a PDF from a web page using Flex. We are targeting Windows and Mac with Arcobat reader installed. I have tried using the AIR appliaction and it worked, But our requirement is NO INSTALL to the user machine for the silent printing. It is just from web page and silent printing to the default printer to the desktop/Laptop. Can anyone share your thoughts and experience with us. It will be very helpful..
    For AIR : I tried the thread Re: AIR and PDF showing/silent printing

    Hey CodeMonkey & Ross,
    Did you either of you ever find a solution? I'm stuck too, it seems I can get remote printing on all these PDFs to work but it just prints a blank page since I've been using Javascript in the browser, not Adobe's (they are Engineering drawings that I do not have permission to edit so I can't just insert code into them but I need to make work instructions). I've been scouring the internet for hours now, it seems that this thread is the only relevant/useful one at this point. No one else was trying to achieve this for similar reasons to mine.
    Thanks guys,
    Lox
