How to get spotlight to scan pdfs created with scansnap

I purchased a scansnap

Well, I am trying to do away with paper... I want to scan items into my computer and have them automatically ocr'ed. Then when I need something I just spotlight it. I have Acrobat Professional.
I am trying to figure out a workflow.
I also have ReadIris (which seemed really foreign to me) and Adobe Reader.
I have looked on the internet but seem to be getting more confused.
I just want all docs to go to one folder and the OCR done at the same time or batched at night.
thanks for any tips.

How to get a report in pdf format.

Hi Experts,
Could any one let me know that, how to get the report in PDF format.
Once a report is generated it should be displayed in pdf format or downloaded in pdf format.
Thanks in Advance,

How can i edit a scanned pdf file in adobe 9 pro ?

how can i edit a scanned pdf file in adobe acrobae 9 pro ?

With Clear Scan you get the text replacing the graphics of text. That can be edited. If you do searchable PDF conversion, you can still edit (I think). However it is an edit of the hidden layer of text behind the graphic and does not show on screen normally.
Usually the best choice is to ask the author for the original file to edit. If that is a copyright issue, then you should not be editing anyway.

How do i edit a scanned pdf document in word?

how do i edit a scanned pdf document in word?

In order to edit a scanned PDF anywhere, you'll need to run Optical Character Recognition so it can covert the text from an image to actual text.
That would require Adobe Acrobat once the PDF is created. If you are using scanning software to create the PDF, that option may be in the software so you can OCR it as you create it.

How to get Page Count of pdf in Document library in EventHandler

Hi,
How to get Page Count of pdf in Document library once uploaded has been done and i would like to update the page count value in document library column of the corresponding file.
I should achieve it in Event handler.
Which even should i use, either ItemAdded or "ItemUpdated "?
Thanks & Regards
Poomani Sankaran.

Hello,
If you are looking for file download or view count then event handler will not work. You need to enable the analytic report to your site. Once you enable it then you can see the report within a browser or you can also create custom webpart to show count
of specific file.

How to get UTF-8 encoding when create XML using DBMS_XMLGEN and UTL_FILE ?

How to get UTF-8 encoding when create XML using DBMS_XMLGEN and UTL_FILE ?
Hi,
I do generate XML-Files by using DBMS_XMLGEN with output by UTL_FILE
but it seems, the xml-Datafile I get on end is not really UTF-8 encoding
( f.ex. cannot verifying it correct in xmlspy )
my dbms is
NLS_CHARACTERSET          = WE8MSWIN1252
NLS_NCHAR_CHARACTERSET     = AL16UTF16
NLS_RDBMS_VERSION     = 10.2.0.1.0
I do generate it in this matter :
declare
xmldoc CLOB;
ctx number ;
utl_file.file_type;
begin
-- generate fom xml-view :
ctx := DBMS_XMLGEN.newContext('select xml from xml_View');
DBMS_XMLGEN.setRowSetTag(ctx, null);
DBMS_XMLGEN.setRowTag(ctx, null );
DBMS_XMLGEN.SETCONVERTSPECIALCHARS(ctx,TRUE);
-- create xml-file:
xmldoc := DBMS_XMLGEN.getXML(ctx);
-- put data to host-file:
vblob_len := DBMS_LOB.getlength(xmldoc);
DBMS_LOB.READ (xmldoc, vblob_len, 1, vBuffer);
bHandle := utl_file.fopen(vPATH,vFileName,'W',32767);
UTL_FILE.put_line(bHandle, vbuffer, FALSE);
UTL_FILE.fclose(bHandle);
end ;
maybe while work UTL_FILE there is a change the encoding ?
How can this solved ?
Thank you
Norbert

Marco,
I tryed to work with dbms_xslprocessor.clob2file,
that works good,
but what is in this matter with encoding UTF-8 ?
in my understandig, the xmltyp created should be UTF8 (16),
but when open the xml-file in xmlSpy as UTF-8,
it is not well ( german caracter like Ä, Ö .. ):
my dbms is
NLS_CHARACTERSET = WE8MSWIN1252
NLS_NCHAR_CHARACTERSET = AL16UTF16
NLS_RDBMS_VERSION = 10.2.0.1.0
-- test:
create table nh_test ( s0 number, s1 varchar2(20) ) ;
insert into nh_test (select 1,'hallo' from dual );
insert into nh_test (select 2,'straße' from dual );
insert into nh_test (select 3,'mäckie' from dual );
insert into nh_test (select 4,'euro_€' from dual );
commit;
select * from nh_test ;
S0     S1
1     hallo
1     hallo
2     straße
3     mäckie
4     euro_€
declare
rc sys_refcursor;
begin
open rc FOR SELECT * FROM ( SELECT s0,s1 from nh_test );
dbms_xslprocessor.clob2file( xmltype( rc ).getclobval( ) , 'XML_EXPORT_DIR','my_xml_file.xml');
end;
( its the same when using output with DBMS_XMLDOM.WRITETOFILE )
open in xmlSpy is:
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<ROWSET>
<ROW>
<S0>1</S0>
<S1>hallo</S1>

How do a edit a scanned pdf? In photoshop or acrobat 9 standard If in photoshop, how do I copy,

how do a edit a scanned pdf? In photoshop or acrobat 9 standard If in photoshop, how do I copy, move and save a letter or word?

You can open a pdf in the PSE editor. When you open the pdf, a dialog will ask you which page to chose (if it's a multipage pdf) and which parameters to use for the conversion to bitmap.
Since you are on a flattened bitmap (psd, tiff, png, jpeg...) all text will be converted and you won't be able to edit text (which is vector format).

How do I get IE to read pdf's with a Windows 7 OS and acrobat 7 on my system?

How do I get IE to read pdf's with a Windows 7 OS and acrobat 7 on my system? It works with firefox. It worked previously but I think the automatic upgrade to reader 9.4 messed it up - so how do I fix it?

Hi,
It looks like the default association of your PDFs was set to Adobe Acrobat, when you installed Adobe Reader 9.4.0. I would request you to either uninstall Adobe Reader 9.4.0 and install it again. This time around, you will receive a window asking you to chose between Adobe Acrobat 7 and Adobe Reader 9.4.0 as the default PDF viewing application, make sure you select Adobe Reader 9.4.0 and continue on. This will associate Adobe Reader 9.4.0 as the default PDF viewing application and your internet explorer will be able to open PDFs without an issue.
If an uninstall seems out of the question, you can change the following registries to point to the path of AcroRd32.exe (i.e. the path wherein you have installed Adobe Reader 9.4.0. By default it would be something like: C:\Program Files\Adobe\Reader 9.0\Reader\AcroRd32.exe). The quotes mentioned below are intentional and must be included.
i. HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Software\Adobe\Acrobat\Exe\(Default) - Change the value to "C:\Program Files\Adobe\Reader 9.0\Reader\AcroRd32.exe"
ii. HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\AcroExch.Document.7\shell\Open\command\(Default) - Change the value to "C:\Program Files\Adobe\Reader 9.0\Reader\AcroRd32.exe""%1"
iii. HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\AcroExch.Document.7\shell\Read\command\(Default) - Change the value to "C:\Program Files\Adobe\Reader 9.0\Reader\AcroRd32.exe""%1"
This should set the default application to view PDFs as Adobe Reader 9.4.0 and let you view PDFs in browser as well.
Hope this works.
Ankit

How do I get firefox to open pdf files with Adobe reader instead of google?

Firefox is unsucessfully using google to open pdf files. How do I get firefox to open pdf files with Adobe reader?
Message was edited by: veeryTalonted

"Google" is a search engine (website) and NOT (repeat: NOT) a PDF viewer. It can't and won't open PDFs in any real or imaginable way.
Firefox added their own proprietary PDF viewer with version 20 - they're on 21 now. I'll be the first to admit "it sucks". You CAN'T fill in PDF forms with it, and you can't email them from the page like with Opera, Safari or Chrome (which use the reader plug-in still).
Unfortunately, the ONLY option you have now that they've added it and killed the ability for the Reader plug-in to work with Firefox, is Tools>Options>Applications - select Portable Document Format(PDF) and choose "Use Adobe Reader (Default)". What that will do is FORCE Firefox to download the PDF instead of opening it in their terrible PDF viewer in the browser window.
Or... use one of the other browsers I mentioned. They're all free.

How do I get Bridge to show PDF's with their dimensions in inches?

How do I get Bridge to show PDF's with their dimensions in inches?
I know how to tell Bridge to do it. But it seems the information is not embedded in the PDF's.
Is there a way to make the PDF's be aware of their size in inches at authoring time?

I'd like to have Bridge showing PDF dimensions in millimeters. Also dimensions for InDesign and Illustrator files in millimeters. Is this still an upcoming feature? I've been waiting for this since CS3...
Thanks

Word 2000 hyperlinks don't work in .pdf created with Acrobat 9 Pro

I'm new to Adobe Forums, so please overlook the effrontery of my posting a query previously discussed. Perhaps someone can simply reply with a link to the prior discussion. I have installed Acrobat 9.2 Pro in 2 computers, one running XP64 Pro, the other XP32 Pro. Word 2000 is installed in both. All Word hyperlinks work fine, but after .pdf conversion using Acrobat 9.2 Pro, none of these work. In 'Preferences', I have navigated Convert to PDF > Microsoft Office Office Word > Edit Settings > Add Links to Adobe PDF File and confirmed that the Add Links feature is enabled. Having ascertained that this glitch is not specific to either XP64 or XP32 operating systems, I uninstalled Acrobat 9.2 Pro from the XP32 computer and reinstalled Acrobat 6.1 Pro. Then using the same Word 2000 document, I converted to .pdf using Acrobat 6.1 Pro, with no problems whatsoever. This looks like a serious bug in Acrobat 9 Pro, which the telephone support folks have acknowledged. Alas, they won't give me the tiniest clue how to resolve it, nor any workaround, but merely refer me to AdobeForums.com for help. I suspect a corrective patch or 'upgrade' will be forthcoming, but meanwhile, if anyone knows of a workaround, please enlighten me. Thanks. /rmbrown

Thank you, CtDave, for your speedy reply and for the 'Acrobat Technical Evangelist' knowledge base article. Word 2000 is one of Microsoft's masterpieces - by disabling 'autosave', the application is totally stable, does not require 'activation' by Microsoft. Acrobat 9 enables 'saving' of interactive .pdf forms, a most valuable feature and one much appreciated by anyone completiing such forms. There must be more to this issue than 'incompatibility', because I can create a test Word 2000 document, hyperlink a valid URL, convert to .pdf with Acrobat 9, and the hyperlink works fine in Acrobat 9. When I attempt to do this using a much more complex Word 2000 document, embedded with scores of hyperlinks, these links fail to work following conversion to .pdf with Acrobat 9, but work fine following conversion to .pdf with Acrobat 6. I can then use Acrobat 9 to open the .pdf created with Acrobat 6, and successfully edit any of these fully functional hyperlinks using the 'Link tool'. I don't know who prepared the 'Acrobat Technical Evangelist' article (AF1908DCd01) - no credits were cited, and I'm far from certain that this authentically belongs to Adobe's knowledge base. So I appreciate your sharing this information with me, but I cannot say that my question has been definitively answered. If you have any further information or tips, please reply in this thread. /rmbrown
