How to select text from a webpage
hi. i have firefox for my n900. i would like to know how to select some text from a webpage so i can copy and paste it. thanks for the help. i couldn't it anywhere.
First tap where you want the selection to start. (It might help to zoom in as far as possible first. You can do this using the volume buttons in the newly-released Firefox 1.1rc1.) Then hold the Shift key while pressing the arrow keys on the N900 keyboard to select text.
Note: We are aware that this is not a very user-friendly way to select text, and we hope to include a better design in a future version of mobile Firefox.

How do I select text from multiple pdf pages using Microsoft Document Imaging
Hello. I have scanned 3 pages and saved to pdf, now in Microsoft Document Imaging I can only select text from the first page and cannot select text from the other 2 pages. Is there a way to select multiple pages?
Thank you.
CatWhy don't you ask in a MS forum? This forum is for an Adobe product and I have no idea why you are asking about Microsoft Document Imaging here.

Using browser javascript to copy selected text from a pdf file opened in Air app.
I have posted this question on reader forum as well, but I think it is more suited here...
I am trying to create a note-taking application in air. I want to extract selected text from pdf file as a string object or to the clipboard.
Obviously, all pdfs in my local storage will not be scripted to recieve postMessages and act accordingly, and that is not practical either. So, my problem is, how can I copy the selected text in the pdf file (opened as an object in htmlloader within my Air app) to clipboard or directly in another control by say clicking a button in air application? I suppose, this is possible using javascript, however, I don't know which reader methods are exposed to the wrapper htmlloader control. In short, I want to execute app.execMenuItem("Copy") command through htmlloader javascript. Any alternate solutions are also welcome.
This is similar to passing inbuilt commands/methods/functions (of adobe reader) to pdf-reader plugin embedded in a webpage via javascript. This is possible in IE where the pdf is rendered as activex object, and hence JSObject interface of pdf document/reader is accessible to the browser javascript. I have also read that this same JSObject is accessible to VB as interface for IAC, so as the Air is Adobe's own product, I was wondering if equivalent of JSObject is accessible to htmlloader control as well.
Thanks in advance...
MitsThank you Thom for your reply...
from
http://www.adobe.com/devnet/acrobat/javascript.html
...Through JavaScript extensions, the viewer application and its plug-ins expose much of their functionality to document authors, form designers, and plug-in developers...
As it is explicitly mentioned, that the functionality of adobe reader are exposed for plugin development, I thought someone here might have used external javascript to execute some safe methods in adobe reader. The functionality (i.e. external javascript interface-JSObject) is already available for VB programmers to develop IAC. Further, the Acrobat SDK example called "AcroPDFinHML" shows how one can embed a pdf-reader in a html page and execute some safe methods (like gotonextpage(), zooming etc.) in IE as ActiveX plugin. I have checked it myself for adobe reader 9, and it works perfectly, so there is no security issue as such to implement the same for another browser (like in my case, the htmlloader control in flex/air app).
I intend to create a note taking application in air, where it is very much required that I should be able to copy selected text from various pdf documents, that are open in my app, and subsequently paste/collect/save the collected notes and process them afterwords (offcourse, from the pdfs that allow me copying text). However, it is not happening for me here. As the pdfs are opened through adobe reader plugin, it does not register the copy command executed by my air app. It registers the system level copy command (by keyboard shortcut Ctrl+C), but my air app has no way to execute the system level copy command programmatically. So I am kind of stuck here...
Thanks again for your reply. Having known what am I intend to accomplish, any other (may be alternative) solutions will be appreciated nonetheless...

How to remove text from .swf animation?
how to remove text from .swf animation? Can no find this text
in fla file. Flash 8.exactly what 'text' are you referring to? text that you typed
on the Stage using the 'textTool'? simply select the text with the
'arrowTool' and hit delete.
If you are referring to a textField that you want to
eliminate after a certain amount of time, within your animation
sequence. first copy the text, create a new layer, paste the text
in place, then where you want to have the text 'disappear' insert a
'blank keyframe' at that point in the text layer.
OR place the textfield within a MC and remove it with code.
OR if the text is dynamic and you wish to use the position at a
later time, pass a value of null or and empty string to the field
at the point you wish. And there are other ways still. :) hope one
of these works for you. -

Rename selection text from standard screen
Hi expert,
I want to change selection text in standard screen.
(i.e "Business Area" in AS02 become "Unit Area")
The only I know if that is a custom program, I can rename the selection text by GoTo--> Text Element --> Selection Text Menu.
But when I open Selection Text from Standard Program, there is a warning "Untranslated texts from master language DE will also be displayed"
and when I continue, the list of selection text is BLANK.
If I change it from Data Element, It will impact the Standard Screen that use that Data Element. I only want to change for AS02.
How can I rename it?
Thanks,

Select text from all_views returns an empty string
My application allows the user to select between the Data Provider for ODBC and the Data Provider for Oracle. (ODP)
When using the ODBC provider the statement:
Select text from all_views where view_name='MYVIEW'
returns the expected string.
If I connect via ODP however it returns an empty string.
(If I use 'Select *' it tells me the text_length is 154 in this specific case - so there is definately text available.)
I'm thinking it has something to do with the fact that the data type is LONG.
In both cases I retreive the data using rdr.GetChars(), which should work.
If I use the dbms_metadata.get_ddl function instead, it does return the string (Probably because the return type is not LONG)
Unfortunately that function only works for Views in the current schema, while the original Select works for any view.
(And I dont know what version of Oracle this function was added in - I have to support older versions too.)
Similarly, if I use one of the XML functions to retreive the text as XML it works fine.
(Again it is probably returned as a VARCHAR2 instead of a LONG.)
The strange thing is that when I created my own table containing a LONG column I was able to load and retreive data without any problems.
The problem appears to be specific to this column in all_views.
Anyone know a solution to this?
Thanks
MikeThanks that was it.
I had not seen those properties since I am working with the 'generic' objects (DbCommand rather than OracleCommand, etc.)
What is strange is that I was able to retreive data from my own LONG column WITHOUT setting this value to -1.
(It defaulted to 0 in both cases.)
The only difference was that when I retreived data from my own column I specified CommandBehaviour.SequentialAccess.
When I retreived the all_views.text column I did not specify a behaviour at all.
However the Oracle docs said that SequentialAccess is not supported ... so I guess that is not correct.
(Maybe it doesn't 'work', but it certainly seems to cause things to work differently)
Thanks

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.jverd wrote:
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? -

How to select data from a table using a date field in the where condition?
How to select data from a table using a date field in the where condition?
For eg:
data itab like equk occurs 0 with header line.
select * from equk into table itab where werks = 'C001'
and bdatu = '31129999'.
thanks.Hi Ramesh,
Specify the date format as YYYYMMDD in where condition.
Dates are internally stored in SAP as YYYYMMDD only.
Change your date format in WHERE condition as follows.
data itab like equk occurs 0 with header line.
select * from equk into table itab where werks = 'C001'
and bdatu = <b>'99991231'.</b>
I doubt check your data base table EQUK on this date for the existince of data.
Otherwise, just change the conidition on BDATU like below to see all entries prior to this date.
data itab like equk occurs 0 with header line.
select * from equk into table itab where werks = 'C001'
and <b> bdatu <= '99991231'.</b>
Thanks,

There are multiple solutions to this questions a few i will try to answer and then you can take the best required for your requirements.
**Consider that you have a Internal table having document number from other table..
SELECT NAME ADRES REGION FROM ADRC
INTO IT_ADRC
FOR ALL ENTRIES IN IT_DOC
WHERE DOCUMENT_NO = IT_DOC-DOCUMENT_NO.
**Consider that you have 1 document number then
SELECT NAME ADRES REGION FROM ADRC

WHERE DOCUMENT_NO = W_DOCUMENT_NO.
Hope this solves your problem.
