How to automatically add file name to email subject line
I just upgraded from Adobe Acrobat Pro 9 to Adobe Acrobat XI Pro.
Previously, when I sent a form via email in outlook, the subject line of the email automatically filled the file name. With this new version, this no longer happens.
Is there a setting that allows me to automatically fill the subject line of the pdf with the file name (or some way for me to set the subject line automaticallly)? Most of my emailed pdf forms go to the same person with the same subject line.
Thank you for your consideration!
Unfortunately Adobe lacks the ability to control and access the email attachment file names.
You can set a standard submit button url action to a mailto command string with a mailto:you[at]yourdomain.com&subject=Your+Custom+Subject+Here
But you won't be able to know what the file name is to insert it into the subject.
To have full control over the output, I suggest you submit the data or whole PDF to a server-side script, such as PHP or ASP.net.
A script can can inject a field values into the custom SMTP email body, subject, recipient lists and attachment file name by parsing the submission or passing values via a Querystring.
Visit pdfemail.net for online examples and more information on server-side scripting.

How do you add File name to returned forms as a field
I'm sure this can be done just not sure how, I have begun a database using returned forms but want a field/footer at bottom of page showing the file name of the returned form so that each returned form can be identified easier for the purpose of the database. That is when I look up the dataset file I wouls like file name as one of the fields. The files use the format Sub Defect Form (1), Sub Defect Form (2), Sub Defect Form (3) etc etc. It is this file name I want to include in the dataset information and as a field on the bottom of the returned form. Any help with this would be much appreciated.
Now it's taking hours for emails.
Not good.

How do I add file name in Beta Pages?
I have just upgraded Pages to Beta Pages (version 5.2.2 (1877) on my MacBook Pro and can't find how to add the filename to the footer. The older version gave me the option by clicking on the footer. I can't see that option on the footer or anywhere else on this new version. Any idea where to find it?

How do I change the default email-subject line when emailing from Acrobat 8...
Hi,
After creating a document in acrobat and clicking the email icon on the tool bar, Acrobat automatically opens and attaches the document to a new email message in Outlook. It also adds the file name as the subject, then appends "- Adobe Acrobat Professional". How do I remove and/or customize the default subject line appended by Acrobat Pro 8.12?
Thanks!Hi, I have the same problem as Alan L. Whenever I have a file open in Acrobat 9 Pro Extended and click File-> Attach to Email it creates a new Outlook message and attaches the file but does not populate the subject line with the file name. The subject line is blank. I tried to email the same PDF file from Foxit Reader and it correctly populated the subject field with the file name.
If anyone can help me I would really appreciate it.
Thanks,

How do I add my name to the camera data file in meta data?
When reviewing the meta data on my photos I see the camera model number, serial number, focal length, etc. The camera owner field is blank. How do I add my name to the camera owner field?
I'm using Photoshop CC, on a windows 8.1 Pro platform. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
CaitlinI did add all the info on the menu section you mentioned above. Unfortunately it does not show up as "Owner" when you view the data file in Photoshop CC for some reason. Copyright info shows properly, but not camera owner. It's not a big problem anyway, just a pride of ownership thingy . I downloaded the GeoSetter program, and after reviewing the meta data contained there I don't see an option for "owner" there either. Perhaps its something that Adobe plans to implement someday, who knows. Thanks for your suggestions everyone.
This is my first DSLR, all I have shot in the past have been film cameras and we didn't have any of this fancy info available unless we wrote it down somewhere, smile. I was still using my old Nikomat that I purchased in 1972 when I was stationed in Japan. I was a bit stubborn when it came to switching to DSLR sorry I waited so long now.
Oh, Trevor, sorry to learn you may be using something other than Nikon, I didn't know there was another brand other than Nikon!

How to strip a file name and add it to array
Hello I am new to labview, and I need to know how to strip a file name and add it to an array. For example, filename joe.csv, then take "joe" and add it to an array with other inputs. A visual depiction will be very helpful
Attachments:
channel read and error check R03_v9(JHK).vi 101 KBWhat does your code attachment have to do with your question?
What are "other inputs"?
I assume you have an array of strings. You can strip the filename using get file extension. You can build an array using build array. Wire the existing array on one input ant the string as a second input.

How can i edit my contacts?and i dont really used my phone and its automatically add a contacts and email adds.. I dont know why that happen..i just turn my phone off and this is happen..
Contacts are synced with a compatible programme in the computer; in the iCloud or with Yahoo and Google Mail. You can directly "edit" a contact on the phone and/or within the programme that you are syncing your contacts with.
Have you configured/setup mails on your iPhone? If yes, check the contents of the mail account(s) individually. (including iCloud) from SETTINGS - MAILS, CONTACTS, CALENDARS
"Contacts" if chosen from the mail account (s) would add email addresses to your contacts.

How do I add the customer's name to Workflow Notification email subject line?
I'm expecting that I need to add a tag, but I'm not sure what the correct tag would be, I have tried a few but it just writes the tag I inserted and not the customer's name.
ThanksThis is something you can not add at the moment. You can change the layout a bit of workflow notifications from the system but you can not change the subjects at this time to render a system tag like that.

Help with add file name problem with Photoshop CS4
Frustrating problem: Help with add file name problem with Photoshop CS4. What happens is this. When I am in PS CS4 or CS3 and run the following script it runs fine. When I am in Bridge and go to tools/photoshop/batch and run the same script it runs until it wants interaction with preference.rulerunits. How do I get it to quit doing this so I can run in batch mode? Any help is appreciated. HLower

How can I hide file names in a photostream?
How can I hide file names in a shared photo stream on icloud. I don't want people to see how many pictures I take at an event. Can this be done to pictures already posted?
The Shared Photo Stream uses the filename of the original image file as the title that is shown in the stream. If you want to hide the original filename, export the image to a folder in the Finder, rename it, then reimport it to share it. You can rename the files directly when exporting.
Or, if you do not mind to change the names of the originals in Aperture use the command "Metadata > Batch change" and change the title of the image, with the option "Apply to Original file" enabled and "Add metadata from" set to "None".
To rename the photos already shared, delete them from the Shared Album and share them again. -

thanks in advance.Hi
Just for completeness, what version of VB.NET are you using?
Here is a complete project to copy all the files with the added "ABL," at the start of each line. You need to start a new Project with a BLANK default Form1, and replace all of Form1 code with the code below. When you run this project, you
need to use the 2 buttons to set up the ORIGINAL file folder and a folder to place the copies. You need to check if the file EXTENSION is correct (I assumed txt), and check the text to add to each line is correct. Once all is set up you should have a
big red button to start the operation.
NOTE: it is important that you try this out on a copy of some of the files to verify accuracy BEFORE trying on original files. Make sure you have a good back up of the original files before doing anything else.

How to Capture the File Names of any extension using ssis
Hello,
Can you please let me know on how to Capture the File Names of any extension(EG : xls,text,.csv etc) at a time and stores in excel file using SSIS?
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Vinay sIf you need to act differently on each file type separately or if not all types of files are wanted, i.e. the Filespecifier cannot be *.* in the Foreach loop:
In the ssis package
make 3 variables:
to store the file extension, e.g. User::CurrentExtension of type string
to store the filename found in the directory: @CurrentFilename
to store the name of the directory where the files reside e.g. User::CurrentDirectory
make a foreach loop of type Foreach Item enumerator:
in the items list you add each file extension that you need
txt
csv
xls
xlsx
As Variable mappings map the CurrentExtension to Index 0
Inside this foreach loop add another foreach loop of type Foreach File enumerator, in the collection Expressions
add Expression Directory , set to @[User::CurrentDirecotry]
add Expression FileSpec, set to "*." + @[User::CurrentFileExtension]
In the Variable mappings, map Variable user::CurrentFilename to Index 0
Inside this loop use Execute SQL Task to insert the filename in a Excel connection.
