How to find generated PDF

Used Automator to combine pdf pages. Results showed it did so.
Cannot find file, even in finder, using pdf name given by Automator.
How does one find the file after it is generated? For example: /private/var/folders/zm/zmkkZVolEyXRmutYmttbk++TI/-Tmp-/hmJLsq.pdf
the file is evidently named hmJLsq.pdf, but I can't locate it with Finder.

DB

If you saved the PDF to the folder you indicated, then you saved it to an invisible folder. Select Go to Folder from the Finder's Go menu. In the field enter "/private/var/folders/zm/zmkkZVolEyXRmutYmttbk++TI/-Tmp-" without quotes, then press RETURN. This should take you to the folder where the PDF was saved. You can then copy or move the file to your Desktop or Documents folder. I recommend you copy the path and paste it into the Go to Folder entry field.

How can we generate PDF file by passing a query from package to RDF?

Hi Everyone,
I am beginner as SQL Developer, I am stuck in one issue , that is regarding generating PDF or Excel file according to user parameters passed.
Detail of Requirement :
I have created one package it contains 2 functions and 1 Procedure .
Also created xx_report.rdf for generating in PDF .
getQuery Function Returns Query as output.
getExcelFile function gets query as input and generate and return CLOB file as OUTPUT.
xx_Report Procedure will take input CLOB file and export it to EXCEL file and save under a DEFAULT Location.
When User Pass Excel as parameter we can generate the file , but now if User Passes the Parameter for PDF FILE then client wants to invoke RDF passing same query(getQuery) to xx_Report.RDF and generate PDF from it .
We have already Created the RDF for xx_Report
How it is possible? to invoke RDF from PL SQL Package.
(We are doing like this as in future if there are any changes in query we dont have to change in RDF or in Package )
If not then please let me know the other way where i can get the PDF or EXCEL file as output according to users choice from RDF.
( We are not using XML PUBLISHER nor 3rd party tools)
Only Oracle Reports Developer 11g 1.2.3.
Please help me in this ....its urgent.
Thanks and Regards,
Harshil .

Hello Narendra,
(Specific to SAP POS General Merchandise)
A Tlog is binary file created by selling items via SAP POS. The file must be converted into ASCII by the use of a utility called cvtlog.exe or trickled to other systems. Once the tlog is converted to ASCII it contains all the information required to feed downstream systems such as ERP, POS DMu2026.etc.
Hope that helps
Angelo

How do I generate PDF and CHM files from the a command line in windows?

I am trying to set up a PC to build some documents during the night. I was looking for a way to get framemaker to generate PDF and CHM files via a command line in windows? How is this done with FrameMaker 12
Thanks for the help
Alex

Hi,
The part with generate a PDF via a jsx seems to work OK, except when FrameMaker decides that it will not work anymore. I must say I am not impressed with the stabillity of FrameMaker 12, there is room for a lot of improvement!.
I have given up on how to figure out how to get FrameMaker 12 to generate chm files via jsx scripts, any pointes are still very welcome.
The route I have taken is I make a RoboHelp project for each chm files I need to generate. The only thing this RoboHelp project contains is a link to the actual FrameMaker project I want to generate a chm file.
To make the chm I start RoboHelp with a script that
1) Opens the desired project
2) Sets the desired output chm files name
3) Generates the chm file
4) And finally quits RoboHelp
Below is a copy of the jsx in case anyone can reuse anything. And yes parameters are transfered via enviroments variable. I have later learned there is some way to read the parameters given at a command line but this seems to work so I stick to this for now.
// Get parameters
var RhProjName = $.getenv("RH_PROJ_NAME");
var RhChmName = $.getenv("RH_CHM_NAME");
var RhLogFileName = $.getenv("RH_LOGFILE_NAME");
var RhLogFile = new File(RhLogFileName);
RhLogFile.open("w", "TEXT");
RhLogFile.writeln("RH_PROJ_NAME : ", RhProjName);
RhLogFile.writeln("RH_CHM_NAME : ", RhChmName);
doc = RoboHelp.openProject (RhProjName, 1);
var sslmngr = RoboHelp.project.SSLManager;
for(var i = 1; i<=sslmngr.count; i++){
var ssl = sslmngr.item(i);
if(ssl.name == 'Microsoft HTML Help') {
    // Set the output location and file name
    ssl.setSpecificProperty("DestinationProjectName", RhChmName);
    if (doc.saveAll(true) ) {
      RhLogFile.writeln("saveAll returned TRUE");
    } else {
      RhLogFile.writeln("saveAll returned FALSE");
    if ( ssl.generate() ) {
      RhLogFile.writeln("ssl.generate returned TRUE");
    } else {
      RhLogFile.writeln("ssl.generate returned FALSE");
} else {
    // alert ("Found " + ssl.name + " dont do anything");
doc.saveAll(true);
RhLogFile.close();
RoboHelp.closeProject();
RoboHelp.quit();

How can I generate PDF bookmarks for change bars?

I want to generate PDF bookmarks for text that is marked by change bars when I save as PDF from structured Framemaker 7.1. That way the proofreader can go directly to the pages that contain change bars and proof only that text.

Adding to Arnis' reply:
It is also possible to generate PDF bookmarks for change bars through FrameMaker-to-Acrobat TimeSavers + Presentation Assistant, as follows:
Change bar has to use a unique color, with a known RGB value
A PDF layer is created automatically based on the specified RGB value, containing all change bars (layer can be set as initially hidden and/or as a non-printing one)
A generic bookmark can be created automatically for each change bar. Since this is not related to the specific text being indicated, the bookmark text has a user-controlled label, optionally autonumbered (eg "Change Bar #1", "Change Bar #2", etc).
After setting the different parameters above, the process is entirely automatic (results are present as soon as the file is Save as PDF or distilled into a PDF).
If this approach is of interest, I can set up sample FM + PDF files.
A different approach -- based on custom markers inserted, with unique text and note attributes -- resulting in Quick-Access Bookmarks, is discussed/demonstrated at http://www.microtype.com/ImprovePDF06.html .

How to find standard pdf formular for module MM and SD?

Hello Experts,
Now I have to find out a list of sap standard pdf formular which is already there for module SD and MM like for purchase order, bill of delivery, shipping document etc.
I don't know how can I find it. Can someone tell me that?
Best thanks,
Rujing

Do you mean "sap script / smartform" used by standard modules ?
Try the transaction NACE.
Proide the application ..e.g. V1 for Sales, V3 for Billing and click the "output types".
Select the output type.. e.g "AN00" for quotation and click "processing routines" .
You will get the standard forms and the print program.

How can I generate PDF

Good morning to all.
I have this need:
I need to print massively invoices and store them individually, in pdf format, divided into different folders per customer.
How can I do to create PDF without interacting with the user ( name file , folder name, etc ) ?
i know there's a function "saveas" with the type 'PDF!', but it does not work.
eg: dw_1.SaveAs ("C: \ Temp \ in \ dw_one.pdf", PDF !, false)
Do I have to install the printer 'Sybase DataWindow PS'?
I do not know where to find the drivers, and above all, it is compatible with Windows 8.1?
Ty
Gimmy
P.S.
Environment: Powerbuilder 12.6 Classic / W7-W8.1

I would be very leery of going the web service route. Performance and scalability are two big issues we ran in to. The proof of concept went fine but when it came time to create lots of documents from lots of locations it was a show stopper. The service either stopped responding or vanished. This was with multiple servers behind a load balancer! PDF docs are fat and creating them takes some time. Sending the bytes across the wire and recreating them locally for lots of locations was a big problem once we moved from proof of concept to load testing. I would seriously consider a client based solution.

How to find the pdf language?

Hi,
My plugin application written in VC++ using acrobat SDK 7 now need to support the japanese document.How can I find the languages present in the given document programatically.
Any help would be appreicated...
Thanks in advance..
Sindh

A PDF doesn’t necessary have a language. If there is a primary language, it can be found in the Lang key in the Catalog dictionary.
However, you may have a multi-lingual document, where languages are specified via tagging in the structure tree.

How to generate PDF automatically.

Hello,
I am generating INVOICES using REPORTS 6i.
After created the PDF format, I send to the customer by email.
I would like to do this process automatically.
So how can I generate PDF automatically?
There is any pl/sql functionality available to generated PDF automatically.If so how can I generate similar like report 6i format and symbols (Logo).
Pls give me some ideas.
Thanks,Kannan.K

Kannan,
a scheduler is part of Reports, with which you can automate to generate Reports. There's a Queue Manager with your installation. But for this you need Application Server based Reporting - not Client/Server.
Also it's possible to send an PDF-Report as an EMail-attachment directly. Starting with 9i there's also an PL/SQL-API available (Event-based Reporting).

How to generate PDF using fonts from Extended Font Pack?

Hello
Extended Font Pack, available for download contains MyriadPro-Regular.otf font that has cyrillic glyphs.
I want to generate PDF document with cyrillic unicode data that can refer to the MyriadPro-Regular font resource without embedding font.
Are Extended Font Pack resources CID keyed fonts or not?
Looks like such example of PDF structure allowed me to use it only in ANSI encoding
           'Type':'/Font',
            'Subtype':'/Type1',
             'Name': '/MyriadPro-Regular' ,
            'BaseFont': '/MyriadPro-Regular',
             'Encoding': '/WinAnsiEncoding',
What values should be for `Subtype` and `Encoding` to render cyrillic unicode (UTF-8 encoded) data and use MyriadPro-Regular Open Type downloaded from adobe and installed into local system without embedding it?
Thanks

Sorry for the delay. I admired with investigation of this case.
My aim is to generate PDF docs on web site that have i18ned content. ALso client does not want to deal with any font licenses (font embedding will raise question about font licensing) and to reduce PDF file size with such approach. So I'm looking for the ability to link fonts in PDF source, that can be easiely downloaded from adobe.com and installed into local desktop. With Latin group (en-us, french, german) we can use one of the 14 standard fonts, for CJK - Adobe Asian Font pack. I was considering (Myriad Pro or Minion Pro) font resources from Extended Font pack to cover Cyrillic glyphs. I observed that such fonts are usually installed with Adobe Reader installation (MyriadPro-regular.otf). To render cyrillic glyphs I followed such steps like converted into cp1251 encoding range of the cyrillic unicode data (as you told those fonts do not support unicode encodings the same way as CID keyed asian fonts) and pointed to the Type1 MyriadPro-Regular with custom WinAnsiEncoding. One problem I faced with is - that glyphnames are differrent in diferent Extended Font pack versions. I mean that cyrillic glyphnames for the Adobe Reader 8 started from `afii100xx`, when for the Adobe Reader 9 they are named `uni0xx` for the same font named MyriadPro. I used such glyphnames in the /Differences list in PDF source. How can I generate PDF source that can be viewed successfully in both Adobe Readers version 8 and 9?

How to generate PDF report directly instead of RPT report by using JRC ?

Hi,
Good Day !
How to generate PDF report directly instead of RPT report by using Crystal Reports XI Release 2 Java Reporting Component (JRC) in desktop (Swing thick-client) ?
My GUI program will generate a RPT report, then i can export to PDF file, this is ok, no problem.
BUT
i want it direct to generate a PDF report, not a RPT report.
The code like below (2 java files)
ClassA.java
ReportClientDocument reportClientDoc = new ReportClientDocument();
reportClientDoc.open(XXX, 0);
ParameterFieldController paramFieldController = reportClientDoc.getDataDefController().getParameterFieldController();
paramFieldController.setCurrentValue("", "XXX", DomainClass.getXXX());
new ReportViewerFrame(reportClientDoc);
// End of ClassA.java
// Begin ReportViewerFrame.java
public class ReportViewerFrame extends JFrame
       //Initial window frame properties.
     private final int XPOS = 80;
     private final int YPOS = 60;
     private final int WIDTH = 760;
     private final int HEIGHT = 550;
     private ReportViewerBean reportViewer = new ReportViewerBean();
     private ReportClientDocument reportClientDoc = new ReportClientDocument();
     public ReportViewerFrame(ReportClientDocument reportClientDoc) throws    Exception
          //Initialize frame properties.
          this.setResizable(true);
          this.setLocation(XPOS, YPOS);
          this.setSize(WIDTH, HEIGHT);
          this.setTitle("Crystal Report Java Viewer");
          //Add GUI components to the frame including the ReportViewerBean.
          addComponents();
          //Add GUI listeners to the frame.
          addListeners();
          //Set the report that the ReportViewerBean will display.
          this.reportClientDoc = reportClientDoc;
          reportViewer.setReportSource(reportClientDoc.getReportSource());
          reportViewer.init();
          reportViewer.start();
          //Display the frame.
          this.setVisible(true);
How to set the export option to PDF base on existing code ?
Where can i download this package/jar ?

How to generate PDF file from HTML file using Acrobat API's

Hi,
I want to generate a PDF file from an HTML file on server side(C# .Net).
Their is a COM interop called "AcrobatWeb2PDF" availaible but could not find any document regarding how to use it.
I cant use "Adobe live cycle PDF Generator" as we just have license for Adobe Acrobat 8 Professional.
Please help...
Thanks and Regards,
Anand Mahadik.

> It is hard to believe that Adobe doesn't provide a toolkit for generating PDF files, so many web based applications have vector based content that needs to be converted to PDF!!!!
They do, it's just not free (A company in business to make money? I'm sure IBM would never think this way... ;)). As mentioned you have Adobe LiveCycle PDF Generator, which you can customize and extend with Java. You also have the Adobe PDF Library SDK, which is written for use with C/C++ although if you license it from Datalogics (the only company in NA Adobe allows to license the PDF Library) you will also get .NET and Java interfaces (part of the DLE - DataLogics Extensions).
> There must be a way to generate PDF dynamically on a server or from Javascript!
JavaScript? Not really, no. As far as I'm aware JavaScript has no file system access capabilities without some form of intermediary (like sending the data to a webservice that writes it out to file). How would you create a PDF file with JavaScript?
The PDF Standard is also in ISOs hands now (ISO 32000-1:2008), it is no longer owned by Adobe - you can download a copy of the specification from them and write your own library based on that as well.
