How to automate multiple output file names from a single input image?

I have about 100 eps cmyk 4000 pixel wide images to process daily. The website needs several jpeg editions of the same image: 1000 pixel wide, 850 pixel wide, and 80 pixel wide.
Question:
Can I load the single source and save three differently named outputs through a single droplet?
I was hoping for an Automation -> Batch answer, but I am a programmer. I haven't touched ExtendScript nor scripted anything in CS, but I can certainly read about it. Any examples I can download or references to methods that would do a "Save As" very similar to the Jpeg Save For Web? Any links would be helpful.

You will find many examples at ps-scripts.com

How to get the Output File Name as One of the Field Value From Payload

Hi All,
I want to get the Output file name as one of the Field value from payload.
Example:
Source XML
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?>
- <ns0:MT_TEST xmlns:ns0="http://sample.com">
- <Header>
<NAME>Bopanna</NAME>
</Header>
</ns0:MT_TEST>
I want to get the Output file name as " Bopanna.xml"
Please suggest me on this.
Regards
Bopanna

Hi,
There are couple of links already available for this. Just for info see the below details,
The Output file name could be used from the field value of payload. For this you need to use the UDF DynamicFile name with below code,
// Description: Function to create dynamic Filename
DynamicConfiguration conf = (DynamicConfiguration) container.getTransformationParameters().get(StreamTransformationConstants.DYNAMIC_CONFIGURATION);
DynamicConfigurationKey key = DynamicConfigurationKey.create("http://sap.com/xi/XI/System/File" , "FileName");
conf.put(key,a);
return "";
DynamicConfiguration conf = (DynamicConfiguration) container.getTransformationParameters().get(StreamTransformationConstants.DYNAMIC_CONFIGURATION);
DynamicConfigurationKey key = DynamicConfigurationKey.create("http://sap.com/xi/XI/System/File" , "FileName");
conf.put(key,a);
return "";
With this udf map it with the MessageType as
(File Name field from Payload) > DynamicFileConfiguration>MTReceiver
Thanks

Output file names from Premiere sequences in AME CS5

Why, oh why, does AME not automatically names files according to their sequence names when added from a Premiere project? Instead, it auto-names them sequentially based on the project name. It is extremely annoying and confusing when trying to queue-up a project with many sequences.
Is there a way to change this behavior (other than to simply disable "Increment output file name", which results in multiple targets of the same exact name) ?
I really wish you could have it name the files like the sequence names.

Just to confirm what you're saying: Premiere Pro sequences added to AME from Premiere Pro are not being named properly? Because they should be...
However, Premiere Pro sequences added to AME from AME (File > Add Premiere Pro Sequence) are NOT named for the sequence, and there is no way around this; you get the project name with a serial digit. There is no setting to change this behavior, unfortunately--it is how it is.
I must agree: it is a particularly annoying oversight. How to change this behavior? Like this: Adobe - Feature Request/Bug Report Form

How to get the long file name from an 8.3 name in Windows.

Because of a legacy string limitation, I have a list of files in 8.3 format. The actual files are saved with long names. How can I get the long name from the short name?
In JavaScript, I would get a file system object and get the file object from there with the short name. Then it's no problem to get the full name. But I don't see anything in Java that matches that. ???
Ideas?
Frank Perry, MSEE

Here is what I did.
String displayName = "somefi~1.txt";
File fO = new File("c:\\"); // I have a more involved path but that's not important here.
String stPath = fO.getPath() + displayName;
File fD = new File(stPath); // get the file using the short name.
File fDc = new File(fD.getCanonicalPath()); // get another file using the cononical name
String FulldisplayName = fDc.getName(); // get the long name from there.
It's roundabout but it works. Since getName() on the file read with the short name only returns the name used to get the file, I open it twice. The alternative is to parse the cononical name for the file name but that's clumbsy too.

How to get the target file name from an URL?

Hi there,
I am trying to download data from an URL and save the content in a file that have the same name as the file on the server. In some way, what I want to do is pretty similar to what you can do when you do a right click on a link in Internet Explorer (or any other web browser) and choose "save target as".
If the URL is a direct link to the file (for example: http://java.sun.com/images/e8_java_logo_red.jpg ), I do not have any problem:
URL url = new URL("http://java.sun.com/images/e8_java_logo_red.jpg");
System.out.println("Opening connection to " + url + "...");
// Copy resource to local file
InputStream is = url.openStream();
FileOutputStream fos=null;
String fileName = null;
StringTokenizer st=new StringTokenizer(url.getFile(), "/");
while (st.hasMoreTokens())
                fileName=st.nextToken();
System.out.println("The file name will be: " + fileName);
File localFile= new File(System.getProperty("user.dir"), fileName);
fos = new FileOutputStream(localFile);
try {
    byte[] buf = new byte[1024];
    int i = 0;
    while ((i = is.read(buf)) != -1) {
        fos.write(buf, 0, i);
} catch (Throwable e) {
    e.printStackTrace();
} finally {
    if (is != null)
        is.close();
    if (fos != null)
        fos.close();
}Everything is fine, the file name I get is "e8_java_logo_red.jpg", which is what I expect to get.
However, if the URL is an indirect link to the file (for example: http://javadl.sun.com/webapps/download/AutoDL?BundleId=37719 , which link to a file named JavaSetup6u18-rv.exe ), the similar code return AutoDL?BundleId=37719 as file name, when I would like to have JavaSetup6u18-rv.exe .
URL url = new URL("http://javadl.sun.com/webapps/download/AutoDL?BundleId=37719");
System.out.println("Opening connection to " + url + "...");
// Copy resource to local file
InputStream is = url.openStream();
FileOutputStream fos=null;
String fileName = null;
StringTokenizer st=new StringTokenizer(url.getFile(), "/");
while (st.hasMoreTokens())
                fileName=st.nextToken();
System.out.println("The file name will be: " + fileName);
File localFile= new File(System.getProperty("user.dir"), fileName);
fos = new FileOutputStream(localFile);
try {
    byte[] buf = new byte[1024];
    int i = 0;
    while ((i = is.read(buf)) != -1) {
        fos.write(buf, 0, i);
} catch (Throwable e) {
    e.printStackTrace();
} finally {
    if (is != null)
        is.close();
    if (fos != null)
        fos.close();
}Do you know how I can do that.
Thanks for your help

Thanks for your answer.
By following your idea, I found out that one of the header ( content-disposition ) can contain the name to be used if the file is downloaded. Here is the full code that allow you to download locally a file on the Internet:
      * Download locally a file from a given URL.
      * @param url - the url.
      * @param destinationFolder - The destination folder.
      * @return the file
      * @throws IOException Signals that an I/O exception has occurred.
     public static final File downloadFile(URL url, File destinationFolder) throws IOException {
          URLConnection urlC = url.openConnection();
          InputStream is = urlC.getInputStream();
          FileOutputStream fos = null;
          String fileName = getFileName(urlC);
          destinationFolder.mkdirs();
          File localFile = new File(destinationFolder, fileName);
          fos = new FileOutputStream(localFile);
          try {
               byte[] buf = new byte[1024];
               int i = 0;
               while ((i = is.read(buf)) != -1) {
                    fos.write(buf, 0, i);
          } finally {
               if (is != null)
                    is.close();
               if (fos != null)
                    fos.close();
          return localFile;
      * Returns the file name associated to an url connection.<br />
      * The result is not a path but just a file name.
      * @param urlC - the url connection
      * @return the file name
      * @throws IOException Signals that an I/O exception has occurred.
     private static final String getFileName(URLConnection urlC) throws IOException {
          String fileName = null;
          String contentDisposition = urlC.getHeaderField("content-disposition");
          if (contentDisposition != null) {
               fileName = extractFileNameFromContentDisposition(contentDisposition);
          // if the file name cannot be extracted from the content-disposition
          // header, using the url.getFilename() method

          return fileName;

How to create an output file name dinamically

Hello Experts,
I have created a report which is pulling information from our databases then running it on demand in order to get a plained-text file (shedule function). My question is how to handle the file name? can i use a kind of variable to reach the required name?. For your information i was using the placeholders but i sitll need to put something else in the name which is dinamic.
I.E : Prod 2011-04-01-08-01-13.txt
2011-04-01-08-01-13 = which is the DateTime stamp
Prod = I want to change this part with a parameter which will bring the required name
I'm using Crystal Reports XI
Thanks in advance,
Agustin Munoz

Need more info, are you using Enterprise?
Nothing in Cr that can do this. If you are writing and app then typically one would use a GUID ID or some sort of time stamp, be careful though with time stamps, you could end up with a few outputs if they are generated in the same minute of second...
Thnak you

How to create multiple output files using TrAX?

Saxon has specific extensions. In this case it is <xsl:document>. That looks like a standard XSLT element, but it actually isn't. The history behind it is this: There was a proposal to create a new version of XSLT, called XSLT 1.1. One of the new features of this version was to be this xsl:document element. The author of the Saxon product, Michael Kay, is one of the people on the W3C committee directing the evolution of XSLT, so he upgraded his product to implement XSLT 1.1. But then the committee decided to drop XSLT 1.1 as a recommendation. So that left Saxon in the strange position of implementing a non-existent extension to XSLT.
The other outcome of this process was that XSLT (1.0) does not have a way of producing more than one output file from an input file. And so the short answer to your question is "Trax can't do that." However, XSLT 2.0 will be able to do that, although it is not yet a formal W3C recommendation, and when it does become one it will take a while before there are good implementations of it. (I predict that Saxon will be the first good implementation.)
One of the problems with XML and XSLT is that what you knew a year ago is probably obsolete now, because of all the evolution going on. So being new in the field is not a disadvantage, unless you get stung by reading obsolete tutorials or magazine articles.

Output File Name from HP 6520 Scanner

08-25-2014 11:02 AM
When I scan on my new 6520 scanner, controlling the process from my new HP computer, it requires me to supply a file name before it will save the output file from the scan. My old HP printer and computer did not reqiire this. It just stored the file as scanxxx, automatically increasing the scan number by one as it saved each file.
Is there a way to have the new printer/computer hardware/software do the same thing or will I find it nesessary to supply a name each for each item I scan?

Hi train2965,
Welcome to the HP Support Forums! I see when you are scanning with your HP Photosmart 6520 to your HP computer, it requires you to name the file before it will save the scan. You would like to be able to just scan and have it auto save as you were able to do this with your previous printer. I would like you to follow the steps listed below:
1. Open up you HP Printer Assistant (PS 6520 icon) on your desktop
2. Under Scan select Scan a Document or Photo
3. On the right you will see the Advanced Settings.. option
4. Click on the Destination tab
5. Here you will have the option to Uncheck the box Show Save As Dialog Box
6. Click OK
Now you can go ahead and try a scan, does it now auto save in your documents without having to name each scanned file?
I hope this helped!
Please let me know the outcome.
Thanks,
HevnLgh

Mail to File - how to read the attachment file name from the subject.

I need to use the SHeaderSUBJECT's value in the receiver file adapter's variable substitution.
This is a Mail to File scenario without design part where the attachment file name comes in the subject of the mail.
I see the below in the dynamicconfiguration section. How can i retrive the value from dynamicconfiguration section to the filename.
<SAP:DynamicConfiguration xmlns:SAP="http://sap.com/xi/XI/Message/30" xmlns:SOAP="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/" SOAP:mustUnderstand="1">
<SAP:Record namespace="http://sap.com/xi/XI/System/Mail" name="SHeaderSUBJECT">PlainAttachment.txt</SAP:Record>
</SAP:DynamicConfiguration>
Points will be rewarded.

Try to use sthg like this in a UDF :
DynamicConfiguration conf = (DynamicConfiguration) container.getTransformationParameters().getStreamTransformationConstants.DYNAMIC_CONFIGURATION);
DynamicConfigurationKey key = DynamicConfigurationKey.create(http://sap.com/xi/XI/System/Mail,SHeaderSUBJECT);
String value = conf.get(key);
or in a JAVA mapping :
DynamicConfiguration dynConf = (DynamicConfiguration) param.get(StreamTransformationConstants.DYNAMIC_CONFIGURATION);
DynamicConfigurationKey dynKey = DynamicConfigurationKey.create((http://sap.com/xi/XI/System/Mail,SHeaderSUBJECT);
String keyValue = dynConf.get(dynKey);
param is the map object from the execute() method of your mapping ...
Hope this helps

How do I call image file names from MySQL & display the image?

Hello everyone,
I have image file names (not the full URL) stored in a MySQL database. The MySQL database is part of MAMP 1.7 and I am using Dreamweaver CS3 on a Mac Book Pro.
I would like to create a catalog page using thumbnails, and PayPal buttons displayed within a table, in rows. With the image centered and the PayPal button directly underneath the image.
How do I use PHP to call the thumbnail images as an image not the file name, to be displayed in the table?
Thanks in advance.

Open the Insert Image dialog box in the normal way, and navigate to the folder that contains the images. Then copy to your clipboard the value in the URL field, and click the Data Sources button. The following screenshot was taken in the Windows version, but the only difference is that Data Sources is a radio button at the top of the dialog box in Windows. It's a button at the bottom in the Mac:
After selecting Data Sources, select the image field from the approriate recordset. Then put your cursor in the URL field and paste in the path that you copied to your clipboard earlier.

How to download multiple versions of iTunes from a single computer?

Is there an Apple ftp or other site where any current version of iTunes can be downloaded? I have a 32 bit Windows computer that can't do downloads, so I have to use another computer to download iTunes. If I try to download from a Mac it only offers the Mac version and my other Windows computer only offers the 64 bit version because it is 64 bit. I could not find any link on the pages to download other versions of iTunes. If I disable javascript I can see options to download all the versions but then the download button does not work. So if anyone knows of a direct link to the different versions of iTunes and Quicktime, I would love to know what it is so I can get the updates I need.

See the further information area of Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates for direct download links for iTunes. iTunes no longer needs QuickTime so you could simply uninstall it. Otherwise this should do it: QuickTimeInstaller.exe (V7.7.5).

Hi,
This is the UDF u have to write in Mapping,
DynamicConfiguration conf = (DynamicConfiguration) container.getTransformationParameters().get(StreamTransformationConstants.DYNAMIC_CONFIGURATION);
DynamicConfigurationKey key =
DynamicConfigurationKey.create("http://sap.com/xi/XI/System/File","FileName");
String ourSourceFileName = conf.get(key);
return ourSourceFileName;
Using this u will get the File name into target side,In this UDF add the Time stamp.
Check this link for more details.
