How to copy a page to another document?

In earlier versions of Acrobat Professional I could copy pages from one PDF to another simply by dragging over the thumbnail of the page to the other document's thumbnails.... Couldn't have been easier! I'm now using Acrobat 8 Professional and the thumbnails have been eliminated. An awkward floating panel called "Pages" performs some of the same functions, but it won't let me drag a thumbnail from the "Pages" panel to another document and Acrobat won't let me view two documents "Pages" windows at the same time.
The "Help" function is rather helpless in solving this problem and I have studied the menus hoping to see a magic "copy page" command somewhere, but no.
Adobe, if you are listening, why on earth wouild you change such a simple and wonderful function? And if you somehow made copying pages from one document to another easier, at least make it obvious as to how I would go about doing this!
Any help would be appreciated!
Thanks,
-Mark

I've discovered that when "Pages" is a free floating window there is no way to copy a page from one document to another using drag and drop. The solution is to select "Show Navigation Pane" and dock the "Pages" window in the pane. Only then did it let me see the pages from two documents at once and allow me to drag and drop pages from one document to another.
Thanks!
-Mark

You can use the SPFolder.CopyTo method.
public static void CopyFolder()
SPFolder folder = null;
using (SPSite site = new SPSite("http://basesmcdev2/sites/tester1"))
using (SPWeb web = site.OpenWeb())
folder = web.GetFolder("shared%20documents/newfolder");
folder.CopyTo("tester4/newfolder");

OK my bad
I just realized that I was in Word Processing in one document and Page Layout in another and you cannot do the copy between the two. Changed the Blank documentto word processing and voila it worked.

I think this might help. Go to the document you want to copy the page from and go to the "View" menu and choose "page thumbnail" so you can see the thumbnails on the side of the document. Right click (or control click) on the thumbnail of the page you want to copy and choose "copy.
Go to the document you want to paste the page into and make sure you have the "View thumbnail" option turned on. If you already have some pages click on the page you want the new page to follow and then right click and paste the page where you want it. (you have to do this in the thumbnail view area, not in the actual document itself.) If you have inserted the page in the wrong spot, just drag it to the right location. note: I have tried dragging the thumbnail from one document to another and it does not work. Too bad because it works that way with a PDF documents in "Preview" app.

How to setup a link that is of the type "Go to a page in another document"?

Is there a direct way for a javascript to setup a link that is equivalent to the acrobat link type you get when you add a link of the type “Go to a page in another document”?
Tools-Advanced Editing-Link tool, make a box
Check: Go to page view, Next (Create go to view dialog opens)
Open second document and go to page
Click “Create go to view dialog” to set up link
Result is a link, when view by link properties, with an action of
Go to a page in another document
File: C:\My Documents\File2.pdf
Page: 43
Zoom level: Custom
I have a java script in a setAction of a link that I think does the job:
l.setAction("var otherDoc = app.openDoc('../Folder2/File2.pdf', this);otherDoc.pageNum = 1 - 1;");
But is there a more direct way that actual sets up a “a link of the type Go to a page in another document” so if it's "advanced edited" its the same as the manual set links?
I would like to setup a set of pdf documents, on the hard disk of a PC or Mac, that can be open with acrobat pro running on the same computer and have the link jump to, and open in a new window, in acrobat pro, to a given page of a second document in the set.
John
Code example in more detail:
/* Insert document level JavaScript to set disclosed = true.
   This will run when the document is opened.*/
this.addScript("setDisclosed", "this.disclosed = true;");
// Search through the document for the word “Acrobat” and create a link around that word.
for (var p = 0; p < this.numPages; p++)
    var numWords = this.getPageNumWords(p);
    for (var i=0; i<numWords; i++)
        var ckWord = this.getPageNthWord(p, i, true);
        if ( ckWord == "Acrobat")
            var q = this.getPageNthWordQuads(p, i);
            // Convert quads in default user space to rotated
            // User space used by Links.
            m = (new Matrix2D).fromRotated(this,p);
            mInv = m.invert()
            r = mInv.transform(q)
            r=r.toString()
            r = r.split(",");
            l = addLink(p, [r[4], r[5], r[2], r[3]]);
            l.borderColor = color.blue
            l.borderWidth = 1
            //l.setAction("this.getURL('http://www.adobe.com/');");
           l.setAction("var otherDoc = app.openDoc('../Folder2/File2.pdf', this);otherDoc.pageNum = 3 - 1;");
Current Systems in use to create documents with links and view them:
Windows XP SP3
Word 2003 SP3
Acrobat 9 pro version 9.4.4
Or just to view them:
Mac OS 10 Lion version 10.7.4
Acrobat 9 pro version 9.5.1
(note I have limited understanding of Mac’s)

If you use buttons instead, it is possible to script adding the actions that you want. It involves creating a properly constructed FDF, saving it, and then importing it into the document. Buttons can be made to appear just like links. For more information, see: http://www.planetpdf.com/developer/article.asp?ContentID=6338

How can I add a link in a cell in pages to another document

Hello I am new to this so be gentle with me
Can anyone tell me if it is possible to add a link in a (table) cell in pages to another document on my Mac, so when I click on it, it will take me to the document
Many Thanks
Charles

As far as I remember you couldn't do it in PAges 09 and Pages 5 has lost over 90 features that Pages 09 has so I would say no you can't. I can't test it right now. I had a quick look in the help (http://help.apple.com/pages/mac/5.0/?lang=en) and could find that you could link to another document from anywhere let alone a table cell.

How can I switch Pages to another language so it doesn't underline everything?
Also, how can I get a Pages document into iTunes for sharing? That option doesn't appear when I click on Share.

Viajero,
Change the Language attribute of your text in Text Inspector, More tab, Language section.
Getting your documet into iTunes isn't necessary if you upgrade to Mountain Lion where you will have direct access to iCloud.

How to copy a page( webpart page) with its content using client side.

How to copy a page(in my case webpart page) with its content(it may contain webparts) using client code (i mean using SPservices or ECMA script).
What i am planning is ,to give end user a page where it will contain text box to specify name of page and a button with the help of content editor webpart.
where on click of button we need to write client side code such that it should create a new page from a existing page in a library with given name by user.
Any suggestion would be helpful. For your information we can do it through UI with the help Site Actions / Manage Content and Structure.But i want to automate it using client side code.Server side code is restricted.
or can we create a template of an existing page with content without the help of sharepoint designer.
Thanks in advance
with regards Ravichandra

Hyperlink with an action 'Go to a page in another document' in IE browser.

When the PDF Document is opened in IE, Clicking on a Hyperlink with an action 'Go to a page in another document' is not navigating to the proper destination page.
This happens when the destination document is already opened in IE once and cached.

I am unable to replicate this at my end. I am using Acrobat 11.0.10 on Windows 7 and IE11
Below are the steps I followed :
Create a link and select the "Custom link" option, click "Next", select the "Options" tab, select "Go to page view", click the "Add: button, open the file to the page you want to link to, click the "Set link" button.

How can I convert page points into document points??

Hello,
How can I convert page points into document points? any API?
I have found 2 APIs
AIDocumentViewSuite::ArtworkPointToViewPoint( ) and
AIDocumentViewSuite::ViewPointToArtworkPoint( )
but I dont know what is view point and art work point.
I think artwork point = page points and view points = document points. am I correct ???

What do you mean by 'document points'? Do you mean document units? Like centimeters or inches? If that, there's no API to do (well, kind of in AIUser.h, but that gives you back a string with a unit suffix). Frankly, its pretty easy to just figure out the conversion values for each type of ruler unit -- there are only five or so you need -- and then write a dinky function that takes a value in one or the other, looks up the current document unit and uses that to convert the value (one function for each way). You just need to figure out everything in terms of points (since pixels == points) -- in that regard, it probably helps to know that 72 pt == 1 inch. From that you can figure out pointer-per-inch|centimeter|millimeter|pica.

How to copy one request to another request

Hi all,
How to copy one request to another new request?
I have a released workbench request in which it has around 1200 Objects (including data elements, domains, programs and many more), now i need to copy all these objects into a new request.
I can do this by SE03 (Include Objects in a Transport Request ) transaction, but it is a lengthy process.
Is there any way to copy directly in one go.
Plz help...
Regards,
Satish Reddy D.

Hi,
The thing is like this....
i have a released request in which we have more than 1200 objects, in that i dont need 10 objects.
so when i create it as copy of transport request, i just deleted those 10 objects and saved.
Now, if i transport the new request how many objects will go? 1200 or 1190?
in the new request i am getting the old request under Comment: Object List Included.
is it necessary to transport the old request?
i need to transport only 1190 objects.
Regards,
Satish Reddy.
