How to extract part of a pdf page and save that as a pdf page on its own?

I need to extract part of a pdf page. I know how to extract full page, but that is not what I want. I need to extract part of it, ideally, using the mouse to select some rectangular area, and export the selected part to either separate pdf page, or to export to vector graphics such as .svg
Is there a tool to allow one to do this? Currently I take screen shot of the page, and use other tools to extract the parts I want. thanks.

thank you. The crop tools helps. But I am still not sure what to do after I select the area I want. I looked at Acrobat Help | Crop PDF pages
So, after I select the crop tool and select the area. Now what to do?
If I double click the cropped area, as the help says, it will just delete everything on the page except the cropped area.
How do I tell it to either export the selected area to .svg, or save the selected area to a separate one page pdf file? I do not want to modify the original PDF file, I just want to make a copy of the cropped area, either to .svg image, or to separate pdf file, so I can include that in another document.

How to extract row_id from PL/SQL procedure and assign that to batch script

Hello Team,
I am stuck with a requirement, wherein I am running a batch script and within the batch script I am calling a procedure which inserts a record in a table (Including a column named l_id).
I need this generated l_id to be passed on as a variable to batch script after PL/SQL procedure completion. So that I can refer this same l_id to update the same record in the table again in the same batch script in the later part.
Looking for some suggestions!!!!
Thanks

Looking for some suggestions!!!!Don't do this using batch scripts. Batch scripts are very much inferior compared to stored PL/SQL code when it comes to managing databases processes and performing data crunching.
Why can't this be written entirely in PL/SQL? And execution managed from either DBMS_JOB or DBMS_SCHEDULER ? And before answering that, consider the following:
- what is the superior language, PL/SQL or shell script?
- what provides tighter integration with the database, PL/SQL or shell script?
- what provides proper security and access control, PL/SQL or shell script?
As you can call SQL*Plus from a shell script to run PL/SQL, you can call a shell script from PL/SQL instead to run external commands and processes.
Use the right tool for the job. And shell scripting is an excellent tool - but only when correctly used. Are you using it correctly? I strongly doubt that...

How to extract text from a PDF file?

Hello Suners,
i need to know how to extract text from a pdf file?
does anyone know what is the character encoding in pdf file, when i use an input stream to read the file it gives encrypted characters not the original text in the file.
is there any procedures i should do while reading a pdf file,
File f=new File("D:/File.pdf");
               FileReader fr=new FileReader(f);
               BufferedReader br=new BufferedReader(fr);
               String s=br.readLine();any help will be deeply appreciated.

First, you set i once, and then loop without ever changing it. So your loop body will execute either 0 times or infinitely many times, writing the same byte every time. Actually, maybe it'll execute once and then throw an ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException. That's basic java looping, and you're going to need a firm grip on that before you try to do anything as advanced as PDF reading. the case.oops you are absolutely right that was a silly mistake to forget that,
Second, what do the docs for getPageContent say? Do they say that it simply gives you the text on the page as if the thing were a simple text doc? I'd be surprised if that's the case.getPageContent return array of bytes so the question will be:
how to get text from this array? i was thinking of :
    private void jButton1_actionPerformed(ActionEvent e) {
        PdfReader read;
        StringBuffer buff=new StringBuffer();
        try {
            read = new PdfReader("d:/getjobid2727.pdf");
            read.getMetaData();
            byte[] data=read.getPageContent(1);
            int i=0;
            while(i>-1){
                buff.append(data);
i++;
String str=buff.toString();
FileOutputStream fos = new FileOutputStream("D:/test.txt");
Writer out = new OutputStreamWriter(fos, "UTF8");
out.write(str);
out.close();
read.close();
} catch (Exception f) {
f.printStackTrace();
"D:/test.txt" hasn't been created!! when i ran the program,
is my steps right?

Capturing the output of a jsp page and save that output in a WORD .doc file

Hi,
This is Naveen. I got stuck up with a problem/doubt. URGENT ! URGENT !
My doubt is how to capture the output of a jsp page(the content is dynamic generated) and save that output to a MS-Word doc file.
I know that therez an option of using Servlets Filters, but this concept is supported by Servlet 2.3 spec. and not earlier. And we are working on previous spec. and our web-servers also supports the prev. version and not the 2.3 version.
If incase, therez a third-party utility for free usage, suggestions are appreciated.
Hope most of them came across this kind of functional requirement. If anyone of them succeeded in this, please express ur bitter experience if any, faced during the coding.
Thanks in Advance for help.
Naveen

You can set the MIME content type as .doc and try to open the Page.
res.setContentType("application/vnd.ms-excel"); to generate the Page output as Excel
res.setContentType("application/vnd.ms-word"); to generate the Page output as MS Word doc
Hope this helps..

In two page view preview shows the first page on its own

In two page view preview shows the first page on its own. I have recently downloaded an ebook which has image based tutorials and the pages are in such a way that pages 3 and 4 should be seen next to each other. Preview seems to want to have pages 1 on its own therefore making this rather difficult. Any help on resolving this issue would be appreciated.

Try selecting the first page, and then from the "Edit" menu select "insert blank page". This should put a blank page at the beginning of the document, shifting all pages down one and putting them in the order you want for your display.

When in DFU mode and connected to the computer iTunes does not say anything but iTunes will see the iPod and you can restore the iPod via iTunes. When in recovery mode and you connect, iTunes will say it found an iPod in recovery mode.

How to take parts of a web page and feed into a PDF template to create a PDF

Interesting quesiton that I think was what LiveCycle was for: How can someone take parts of a web page or xml document (say by id name or a specialized tag) and feed the chosen items into different regions inside a PDF template?
Basically, can you identify areas on a page and then tie them to place holders in a pdf template (with high res graphics say) and create a PDF?
Please note: this is not about converting a whole webpage to a pdf, but select portions of it.
Anyone have experiences in doing this? So far, it appears to require a toolset like LiveCycle or Adlib to utilize only selected items and not the whole page.

The lack of answers is likely due to folks having no clue. What you have asked is not really the purpose of either Acrobat or LiveCycle, but that is not to say it can not be done. A starting point is to bring a WEB page into Acrobat as a PDF. This can be done by printing from the browser to the Adobe PDF printer, using PDF Maker with IE or FIrefox, or simply creating directly in Acrobat. Those are the normal ways to get things from a web page to a PDF.
That said, it is not what you asked. You are asking about being able to parse parts of the web page. That is a lot more work and may not be directly possible, though with JavaScript it might be possible. I suspect that if it is possible you would require a lot of extra programming to allow the material selection. It may be the folks in the SDK sub-forum can help.
Being I have no clue how to implement what you have asked (and probably no one else either), I can only suggest some things to look at or other places to inquire. If you think the XML of LiveCycle would help, then you might try the LiveCycle forum.
In terms of your post, I really don't remember seeing the original, but that was right near the end of the semester and I was not checking the forum very much. There are various reasons folks may not reply, typically because they have no clue. Templates are also somewhat specialized and there are not many posts about them. My guess is that the template aspect may have had a lot of folks skip the post. In any case, I have tried to give you some thoughts.
