How to find all bookmarked PDF documents in Preview in Mavericks?

Hi there,
  the problem is that before upgrading to Mavericks I could view all my bookmarked PDF documents just via menu bar in Preview, but now in Mavericks I have no idea how to manage this bookmarked documents - I can see bookmarks only after opening these PDF files which have been bookmarked. Just imagine that you have thousands of documents of which only a couple have been bookmarked for later reading - as I can see the only way to find these documents in Maverick is to open documents one by one and see whether they have bookmarks or not... Is there any way to bypass this painful procedure?
Thanks in advance!
Kind regards,
Alex

I tried this and it works as you describe, but not all Hypercard documents appear to have the same content type, as described by Terminal.
The first Hypercard stack I tried came up with the content type:
dyn.ah62d4rv4ge8xe6u
The search only found the one result with this type (the same stack).
Then I tried using the Hypercard "Home" stack (a pretty central stack to Hypercard's functioning), and it had a content type:
dyn.ah62d4rv4gk8zgzcbmq
(note the type is longer with a different ending; only the first 14 characters are identical to the first stack).
This search found 317 items, which is likely most of my Hypercard documents, so this is some progress.
Unfortunately I know that since the first stack I tried had a different content type, there may be other Hypercard stacks on my hard drive with yet a different content type, not caught by these searches.
I then tried a wildcard, thinking that if only the first 14 characters of the content type are identical, I focus my search on those characters only, using asterisk as a wildcard at the end. So I searched for:
dyn.ah62d4rv4g*
The result was 526 hits, including many documents that are not Hypercard. So this doesn't help.
It appears that the content type is not exactly specific to a the File Type or Creator Code, so while I can find many of a particular document, this method cannot find all of one type of document.
I tried searching using raw query by the Terminal-reported File Type Code (kMDItemFSTypeCode= "STAK"), but this revealed no items.
Perhaps I should suggest this to Apple as a bug fix for Leopard, to restore the ability to search by Type Code or Creator Code as a choice in the OS Find service? I know these codes are no longer relied on as much as they used to be, since now the OS uses extension as much as anything else, but there is lots of older software that still run in Leopard that use Type and Creator codes. And Apple still recommends registering the creator code of any new software.
Thank you!

  • How do you rotate a pdf document in preview?

    There is a book where the double pages are turned. How do you rotate them so that you can read them in preview?

    There are three ways.
    1. If you have a toolbar on your page (opened by clicking the gray oval in the upper right hand corner) you should see the 'Rotate' option there (it's blue).
    2. Click Tools in the Menu Bar. Rotate left and Rotate right are there.
    3. Command L for Left, Command R for right.
    Rotate until they face the right way. You should be able to save the changes in orientation.

  • How do i save a PDF document sent to me via email to Pages on my IPad

    Hey All,  I have a document that i want on my IPad.  How do i save a PDF document sent to me via email to Pages on my IPad?

    You can't. You can export Pages files as PDF documents but you cannot save a PDF into Pages. It does not support that feature.
    There are tons of PDF apps in the App Store aside from iBooks. Adobe Reader makes a pretty decent PDF app that will store, annotate, rename, highlight, use form fields, sign pdf's, and organize in folders. It is free as well. There are other apps, you just have to Serach for them.

    Reader cannot convert files to Word. There is an ExportPDF service with its own forum to help with issues to the service. However, converting files to Word is by its very nature an iffy proposition. How well it works depends upon the content of the file and how it was created.

    Hi tinam74565130,
    That does sound frustrating! It sounds as though the filename associations have become confused on your computer. You should be able to reset that easily. Here are some instructions:

  • How do you link a pdf. document within a Keynote slide?

    How do you link a pdf. document within a Keynote slide?

    Gary, I'm trying to save a Keynote presentation that was created from a Powerpoint presenation using PDF files.
    It imported beautifully, problem is it won't play. Keeps giving me a "Keynote cannot play your slideshow because an error occured" message.
    I thought it was a Powerpoint/Keynote incompatibility thing, so I recreated the presentation - 1 pdf per slide just like you have here (I did this before finding your post) and it still wouldn't play. I even tried JPG - nothing; just horrible looking images.
    Is there something I'm missing?

  • How to find all JMX ports on a server?

    How to find all jmx ports on particular server (say localhost) on windows
    I have multiple JVM's running on my local server, and there is extensive use of JXM mbeans by the applications running on each server. So I want to connect to all these JMX servers and to instrument the MBeans using Jconsole(Jconsole localhost:<port>). But I don't know the port numbers, and its not logged by the application.
    How do I find all the ports jmx servers connected?
    Note : In my case I can not instrument using the PID.

    Hi kajbj,
    I tried stop/start the application, but couldn't find any difference in the netstat command. I know it should show the JMX port (I am able to see on a test application), but this application's JMX port usage is missing.
    netstat -ano --> Do i need to use any other commands?
    I just injected few lines of code ( to list the MBeanServers programatically), to this application (did some usual tweaks to let this code execute at some time) and its listing couple of MBeanServers and lot of MBeans.
    MBeanServerFactory.findMBeanServer(null); and so on.....
    Is there a way to get the port using the Management API's?
    thanks,

    Using your example and not modifying it, I get the e-mail form filled out correctly and the pdf attached, however, I'm not prompted to sign it.
    Any more clues?
