How to attach a word or a pdf document with a workitem.

Hi,
I have a doubt regarding the workflows.
The scenario is when a manager gets a workitem, he has attach a document in the workitem and then approve or reject it.
Actually, before approving or rejecting, the manager has to get email from other approvers who dont have access to SAP or Portal. So, once he gets approval on email then he would take a screen shot of the email and paste in a word document and attach it in the workitem and then approve/reject the workitem. is it possible. This workitem should be visible to the admin people or anybody who checks that workflow instance in the log.
Hope the requirement is clear.
Please suggest whether this is possible and how.

HI,
This is quite possible.
Actually, before approving or rejecting, the manager has to get email from other approvers who dont have access to SAP or Portal.
How these approvers are notified about workitem?
However, you can make use of decision step to approve or reject.
When Manager will open the work item ,SAP standard functionality can be used to attach file , here manager can select word file format and attach the required file. then he can approve or reject it.
This file would be saved as instance of SOFM object and a background method would be required if you want to read the contents.

How do I edit words on a pdf document?

I have revieved an email with a pdf attachment. This attachment is a scan of a letter. How do I edit words in the letter?

In its current state, those letters are merely an image - there is no text.
With Acrobat Professional - perhaps Standard, you would utilize Document > OCR Text Recognition
That option in AA X and XI are probably elsewhere.

How to position text in an existing PDF document with X,Y coordinates

There used to be a CFX PDF tag that could do this. the company (www.easel2.com) does not appear to exist any more.
This is what i want to do. I have an existing PDF file that is uploaded by a user. I want to receive the file, then put a registration number (some text) in the lower left corner of the 2nd page (I don't know the exact x,y coordinate but I can figure that out later).
Does anyone know how I can do this?

Unfortunately, I can not create the PDF. It is uploaded by the user, and I have to open the PDF, insert the text and save it. BUT, I did find the solution in a slight roundabout way.
1) Create an image file containing the text I need
2) Use that image file as a watermark with 10 opacity and use the tag's x,y coordinate setting.
Below is the code I found to work:

<cfset myImage=ImageNew("",500,500)>

<cfset ImageSetBackgroundColor(myImage,"white")>

<cfset ImageClearRect(myImage,0,0,500,500)>

<cfset ImageSetAntialiasing(myImage)>

<cfset attr=StructNew()>
<cfset attr.size=50>
<cfset attr.style="bold">
<cfset attr.font="Verdana">
<cfset ImageSetDrawingColor(myImage,"blue")>
<cfset ImageDrawText(myImage,"PROOF",100,250,attr)>

<cfimage action="write" source="#myImage#" destination="text.tiff" overwrite ="yes">

<cfpdf action="addwatermark" source="c:/book/1.pdf" image="text.tiff"
destination="watermarked.pdf" overwrite="yes">

How can I delete pages in a PDF document with Reader for iPad?

Is there a way to do this within Reader? I know you can do it with MAX PDF or PDF Splicer, but I was hoping for a native way to delete - for example - 2 pages from a 10 page document and then resave it to Dropbox, email it, or something along those lines...
I assume if you cannot delete, then you cannot merge 2 documents into one?
Thanks

I figured the app might have that ability - considering you can add text, highlight, add a signature, annotate and draw - so my thought was why not delete a page, or rearrange for that matter?.. That should be an option, this way we don't have to export to one of the other apps to delete or rearrange..
Thanks for the help, Bernd.
BTW if anyone is looking - PDF Max can do all of the above and delete and rearrange. With PDF Splicer you can delete and rearrange as well, but it has no other features.
And as for Steve Werner whose comment was deleted after it got to my inbox, it is much more than a Reader, as you can plainly see from the amount of tasks the Reader app can do above.

How to attach a word or excel file directly in Email App on iPhone 5s

The biggest disappointment for me with iOS7 is the inability to attach word, excel and pdf documents directly to a mail in the Mail App instead of attaching them from the app you are using at the time. This is a serious flaw and Apple must by now know that attaching video and pictures is not all that users of their devices do. Surely they need to take this aspect seriously if they want to be taken seriously by business customers!

What do I need to do to display a MS Word, Excel or PDF document in browser

Hi, Right now I have photos loaded and displayed in my HTML document in the browser next to a report...
What do I need to do to display a MS Word, Excel or PDF document in a browser?
I use the following procedure to load the content to the region of my HTML .
This gives an EDIT link to the photo...
select
'[img src="#OWNER#.display_thumb?p_file_id=' || nvl(file_catalog_id,0) || '" /]' "File"
from "FILE_CATALOG"
where "FILE_CATALOG_ID" = :P9_FILE_CATALOG_ID
This is the procedure to load the content to the region of my HTML .
create or replace PROCEDURE "DISPLAY_THUMB" (p_photo_id in number)
as
l_mime varchar2(255);
l_length number;
l_file_name varchar2(2000);
lob_loc BLOB;
begin
select mime_type, thumbnail, photo_name, dbms_lob.getlength(thumbnail)
into l_mime, lob_loc, l_file_name, l_length
from photo_catalog where photo_catalog_id = p_photo_id;
-- Set up HTTP header
-- Use an NVL around the mime type and if it is a null, set it to
-- application/octect - which may launch a download window from windows
owa_util.mime_header(nvl(l_mime,'application/octet'), FALSE );
-- Set the size so the browser knows how much to download
htp.p('Content-length: ' || l_length);
-- The filename will be used by the browser if the users does a "Save as"
htp.p('Content-Disposition: filename="' || l_file_name || '"');
-- Close the headers
owa_util.http_header_close;
-- Download the BLOB
wpg_docload.download_file( Lob_loc );
end;

Thanks.

OK, I found it myself:
1. Tools - Pages - Edit Page Design - Header & Footer - Add Header & Footer.
2. Select the font and size, etc, place the cursor on the appropriate site to insert the page number, click the "Insert Page Number" button, and click OK.
That is!

How do I get IE to read pdf's with a Windows 7 OS and acrobat 7 on my system?

How do I get IE to read pdf's with a Windows 7 OS and acrobat 7 on my system? It works with firefox. It worked previously but I think the automatic upgrade to reader 9.4 messed it up - so how do I fix it?

Hi,
It looks like the default association of your PDFs was set to Adobe Acrobat, when you installed Adobe Reader 9.4.0. I would request you to either uninstall Adobe Reader 9.4.0 and install it again. This time around, you will receive a window asking you to chose between Adobe Acrobat 7 and Adobe Reader 9.4.0 as the default PDF viewing application, make sure you select Adobe Reader 9.4.0 and continue on. This will associate Adobe Reader 9.4.0 as the default PDF viewing application and your internet explorer will be able to open PDFs without an issue.
If an uninstall seems out of the question, you can change the following registries to point to the path of AcroRd32.exe (i.e. the path wherein you have installed Adobe Reader 9.4.0. By default it would be something like: C:\Program Files\Adobe\Reader 9.0\Reader\AcroRd32.exe). The quotes mentioned below are intentional and must be included.
i. HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Software\Adobe\Acrobat\Exe\(Default) - Change the value to "C:\Program Files\Adobe\Reader 9.0\Reader\AcroRd32.exe"
ii. HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\AcroExch.Document.7\shell\Open\command\(Default) - Change the value to "C:\Program Files\Adobe\Reader 9.0\Reader\AcroRd32.exe""%1"
iii. HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\AcroExch.Document.7\shell\Read\command\(Default) - Change the value to "C:\Program Files\Adobe\Reader 9.0\Reader\AcroRd32.exe""%1"
This should set the default application to view PDFs as Adobe Reader 9.4.0 and let you view PDFs in browser as well.
Hope this works.

How do I get firefox to open pdf files with Adobe reader instead of google?

Firefox is unsucessfully using google to open pdf files. How do I get firefox to open pdf files with Adobe reader?
Message was edited by: veeryTalonted

"Google" is a search engine (website) and NOT (repeat: NOT) a PDF viewer. It can't and won't open PDFs in any real or imaginable way.
Firefox added their own proprietary PDF viewer with version 20 - they're on 21 now. I'll be the first to admit "it sucks". You CAN'T fill in PDF forms with it, and you can't email them from the page like with Opera, Safari or Chrome (which use the reader plug-in still).
Unfortunately, the ONLY option you have now that they've added it and killed the ability for the Reader plug-in to work with Firefox, is Tools>Options>Applications - select Portable Document Format(PDF) and choose "Use Adobe Reader (Default)". What that will do is FORCE Firefox to download the PDF instead of opening it in their terrible PDF viewer in the browser window.
Or... use one of the other browsers I mentioned. They're all free.

How do I get Bridge to show PDF's with their dimensions in inches?

How do I get Bridge to show PDF's with their dimensions in inches?
I know how to tell Bridge to do it. But it seems the information is not embedded in the PDF's.
Is there a way to make the PDF's be aware of their size in inches at authoring time?

I'd like to have Bridge showing PDF dimensions in millimeters. Also dimensions for InDesign and Illustrator files in millimeters. Is this still an upcoming feature? I've been waiting for this since CS3...
Thanks
