How to auto populate numerous pdf files with same name and address?

I have numerous pdf files where a company's name and address will need to be entered onto each file. Would there be a way to enter this information once, say on an excel file or something, and then have this information auto populate all the correct fields in each and every pdf file I have to fill out. I am a complete rookie with Adobe Acrobat. At any one's convenience please let me know or point me in a direction where I can possibly learn this for myself. If Adobe offers this type of service please let me know which department to contact.
Thanks,
John

If you were an InDesign user, you could layout the document there, and use the Data Merge feature to bring in the names and addresses from Excel. Then create a PDF of the resulting file which could be split into individual PDFs.
There might be a way to do it similarly with Microsoft Word and Mail Merge.

Search multiple folders for files with same name and create single file

I have a project where I need to search multiple folders for a file name and when found append data from each file to a single input file.
Example
root folder to start search
\\servera\sales
\\servera\it\salesa\cmmstr.txt
\\servera\it\salesb\cmmstr.txt
\\servera\it\salesc\cmmstr.txt
I need to create a a single cmmstr.txt on the root folder. I would like it to be able to run this with parms to pass in folders to search and file names to search and single file name to create. I'm going to have a least 10 differnt files to
search for and create output file for. The folders to search
will somewhat be static.
Thanks.

I tested this out on my own seat and I think it should work for you. I wrote it as a function, all you have to do is pass the root folders you want to search and the file your looking for. The function will then search that directory and all sub directories
for that file name. you will also have to provide it a file to append to, if the file dosen't exists the function will create it. If you run into an issues let me know and the links Mike
Laughlin posted are a great resource.
Function Search-Files{
Param([String[]]$Locations, $SearchFor, $AppendTo)
Begin
If(-Not (Test-Path $AppendTo)){New-Item $AppendTo -ItemType File -Force}
Process
ForEach($Location in $Locations)
$Files = Get-ChildItem -Path $Location -Filter $SearchFor -Recurse
ForEach($File in $Files)
Get-Content -Path $FIles.FullName | Out-File $AppendTo -Append
End{}
Search-Files -Locations "\\Server1\c$\Temp", "\\Server1\c$\Test1" -SearchFor "Install.cmd" -AppendTo "C:\Temp\Search.log"

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 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.

I am uploading a file to Tomcat server. But, the problem is:
i want to delete an existing file in the server, if i upload a fresh file with same name. In other words, "First check for the file with the same name in the server. If it exists, then delete existing file in the server and upload fresh one". If such file doesnot exist, then upload the file to server.
I have given deleteonExit()
but, for the first time when user is uploading, i want to check for the file with same name in the server.

Static Files with same name. How does apex determine which files to serve?

Hello, I'm using apex 4.2.1.00.08 and I cannot figure out how apex manages the static files and cannot find any help in the docs (other that some high level UI description).
The application is serving some file and I cannot find which one it is in any easy way.
I have a workspace where there are several files that have the same name, and I cannot understand how apex figures out which one to serve, and also don't understand what is value of associating a file with an application.
There are files associated with application 0, which don't appear to show up in the "shared components", but can be seen as
SELECT *
FROM wwv_flow_files
WHERE flow_id = 0;
and can apparently only be deleted using "SQL Commands" inside apex.
the URL called is something like
wwv_flow_file_mgr.get_file?p_security_group_id=13498126233076320&p_fname=myfile.css
so apparently the only parameters that matter are the workspace and the file name. The associated application is irrelevant.
apparently files linked to flow_id 0 have precedence over all the other files ...
Thanks for clearing up a bit of "fog" on this issue.

I have a workspace where there are several files that have the same name, and I cannot understand how apex figures out which one to serve, and also don't understand what is value of associating a file with an application.Static files can be uploaded to apex with optionally associating with an application within that workspace.
Files associated with an application are referenced using *#APP_IMAGES#*
Files not associated with an application are referenced using *#WORKSPACE_IMAGES#*I referenced with #WORKSPACE_IMAGES#, but now I see that if I use #APP_IMAGES# the URL generated will also contain the application ID. This would help to discriminate between different files with the same name but linked to different applications ...

Filename is unique for the given workspace[and application]I disagree. I have multiple files with the same name ... the root of this problem ...
so apparently the only parameters that matter are the workspace and the file name. The associated application is irrelevant.How is your static file referenced??
But not always, try associating an static file with and application and reference it using #APP_IMAGES# instead of #WORKSPACE_IMAGES#

Thanks, but the documentation doesn't give much details ... apparently files referenced with #WORKSPACE_IMAGES# can still resolve to files linked to specific applications ... I would like to understand the actual workflow for the various cases (file references with APP_IMAGES, referenced with WORKSPACE_IMAGES, file associated with the application, with another application, with no application, with application "0" ...).
Also, I find it somewhat misleading that you can have files associate with applications that don't exist anymore (e.g. have been deleted).

Hi all
Hope to get some help with Elements Organizer.
I have 12-15 years of digital photos that I now want to import into my newly aquirede Adobe Elements Organizer / Photoshop. Since my Nikon names the files with continous numbers from 0001 to 9999 I have multiple files with the same name although they are not alike at all. My previous software had no problems with that since I keep the photos in separate file folders based on import date. I generally import photos after each event and so name the folder with the date and some event info (e.g. 2014.12.24 - Christmas at grandparents).
That is a common situation, I have the same limitation for files not going over 9999 on my Canons...
Now - when I import my photos into Elements Organizer I get a lot of error messages with "same name exist .....) Hmmmmmmm
Please sate the exact wording of the error message, I have never seen a message stating 'same name exist...' or equivalent; only messages about files already in the catalog. Files already in the catalog mean that some files have the same 'date taken' and file size in Kb.
Any suggestions. I'm using a mac and tried to rename files based on date taken. The mac can do that but it takes ages to go into each folder and run the renaming script there.
I also use a similar folder creation scheme (such a date naming is the default for the downloader). That way I never get a message about duplicates for the same file names.
However - I can't be the first or only person with this problem so I figure that some workaround must be known out there. Maybe the import action can recognize date taken or - well. Thank you very much in advance if you can help me out here.
You can alsways set the downloader to rename the imported files with a unique new name, there are many options in the 'advanced' dialog of the downloader. I don't know about Macs, but I don't thing there is a difference.

"File with specified name and version number already exists. Result code= -48." ...????

Recently I have been getting this error message when I try to record an audio track in Logic... "File with specified name and version number already exists. Result code = -48." WHAT IS THE PROBLEM?????? It's making me furious!

Hi
As the message says, there is a file at the recording directory that has the same name:

Try changing the name of the track (this sets the filename in later versions of Logic 9

Script to find files with same names with in a folder and it sub folders.

Looking for script to find files with same names with in a folder and it sub folders.

Are you just looking to find if any two files underneath a folder have the same name?
If you just want to know that a file named "whatever" exists in two folders, that's not too difficult, but you probably want to know the full path names.
Here's one attempt:
$ perl -MFile::Find -le 'find(\&w, "."); while (($n,$p)=each %file) {if(@{$p}>1){print join(" ",@{$p})}} sub w{push @{$file{$_}},$File::Find::name;}'That will print the pathnames on the same line of any files with the same name that appear anywhere underneath your current directory.
It's a bit long for a "one-liner", but functional.

Merging Log Files with same name

Hello,
I have log files with same name 00000000.jdb (because created at different machines). I would like to merge data stored in these two files.
I tried below approaches which do not work:
1. rename one of the files -> doesn't work as file header has file name info which doesn't match with renamed value
2. db dump/load -> dump and load works without error. (i have to dump Entity related Database and Format related Database -- from -l option) However when i try to read the file, it gives error.
Exception in thread "main" com.sleepycat.je.EnvironmentFailureException: (JE 5.0.103) Catalog could not be refreshed, may indicate corruption, errorFormatId=52 nFormats=51, . UNEXPECTED_EXCEPTION: Unexpected internal Exception, may have side effects.
I am using EntityStore and thus Annotated Entities.
Does any one has any insights?
Thanks.

Yuvaraj,
As you discovered, it is not possible to use .jdb files from one environment in a different environment. The .jdb files use an internal format with relationships between files that form the Btree.
I'm glad to hear you were able to use DbDump and DbLoad successfully.

Can i rejoin ny SCVMM 2012 server to domain with same name & IP address?

Dear all..
I am in situation where i have to rejoin my scvmm server to domain with same name & ip address.one of the fool admin has deleted my SCVMM's computer object from AD. I have recreated the object & tried to log on but no luck.. i have to rejoin
the server.
Does it have any risks involved or its just fine?

Hi,
First the behavior is normal. If an computer accounts is deleted, you cannot continue using the server without rejoining.
SCVMM it's not depending (integration) on active directory in such way as Exchange.
So, if the computer accounts has been deleted, there is no issue in creating a new one and rejoin the server. As long as the application on the server is able to look up any required directory services, it should be happy again.

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 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.
