How to set PDF file default display size through Report Writter 6i

Anyone could help me, how to setup default display (magnification i.e 100% or 80%) for a pdf file generated by report writter 6i.
Thanks
Raj

hi,
regarding report, there is a dedicated report forum. you should post there.
but answer for your question is form is nothing to do with the pdf generation. you can call the report from the as usual.
In the report you should set the properties like
destype to 'file'
desname to 'path with file name'
desformat to 'pdf'

How to set local file copy buffer size?

Is there any sysctl parameter or any other mechanism to set or change file copy buffer sizes? I'm backing up a huge number of files to a local hard drive connected by firewire, and I'd like to play with file copy buffer sizes for the best performance. The machine used is a new macbook pro running OS-X 10.6.7. Any ideas?

Here is a bash script that uses the dd command to copy a file. Use the -b option to set the file size.
example:
/Users/mac/config/forumcopy.command -vb 4096 /Applications\ $Mac\ OS\ 9$/Civilization\ II/Civ\ II\ Map\ Editor /Applications\ $Mac\ OS\ 9$/Civilization\ II/Civ\ II\ Map\ Editorv8
I haven't tested this a lot.
Of course, I haven't figured out how best to post code. Trying HTML mode. Using the <pre> tag.
#!/bin/bash
# macteracopy [ -b blocksize ] [-v ] [-V ] input_file output_file
# Purpose of this script:
# Copy a file with optional block size. Default size of 4096.
# Notes:
# chmod u+x macteracopy
# You may have to restart the finder to notice a customized file icon.

How to send pdf files from local dir through emails attachments

I have some pdf documents in some directory, I want to send those pdf's as an attachment throu emails to the concerned person.
Please let me know how to attach the files and send through email.
Thanks.

You are using Forms 4.5, which is a client/server configuration. When you create a pdf file, the file has to be written to a directory that is accessible from your PC. D:\ is acessible, /tmp/ not (that is a directory on some Unix server). If you want to write files to a Unix server, you have to set up Samba and map a drive from your PC to he Unix directory.
Since you are creating multiple pdf files, you will have to wait until all reports are finished and mail them afterwards. You can create a batch script to mail the files.

Hi,
After Converting list to Pdf try the below code.
DATA : GD_BUFFER TYPE STRING.
LOOP AT IT_PDF_OUTPUT.
    TRANSLATE IT_PDF_OUTPUT USING ' ~'.
    CONCATENATE GD_BUFFER IT_PDF_OUTPUT INTO GD_BUFFER.
ENDLOOP.
TRANSLATE GD_BUFFER USING '~ '.
DO.
    IT_MESS_ATT = GD_BUFFER.
    APPEND IT_MESS_ATT.
    SHIFT GD_BUFFER LEFT BY 255 PLACES.
    IF GD_BUFFER IS INITIAL.
      EXIT.
    ENDIF.
ENDDO.
Then mail it. <removed by moderator>

Pdf file is too big (7MB). Need a pdf file with max size 4MB. How to minimize the size of a pdf file?

pdf file is too big (7MB). Need a pdf file with max size 4MB. How to minimize the size of a pdf file?

The other alternative is the Save As Other>Reduce File Size. The PDF Optimizer gives you more control. You might also use the audit feature in the PDF Optimizer to see where the size problem is coming from. You might find that in the WORD file you can select and image and then go to the FORMAT (pictures) menu and select compress for all of the bitmaps in the file. That will typically use 150 dpi by default that is adequate for most needs.

How do I make a PDF file smaller in size?

How do I make a PDF file smaller in size?

Do you have images on your PDF? You might want to use smaller images (smaller in file size and not in necessarely in image dimension).
I'm not sure what else could be done to make your PDF form smaller. How big is your form?

How to load PDF files into oracle database and display them in APEX

Hi All,
We have a requirement for loading the Loading PDF files (lots of PDf files) to the oracle database and then display the PDF files in the Oracel APEX report.
So that User can view the PDF files. Our current APEX verison is 3.2..
Please let me know how to implement it and where to find the sample application!
Thanks in advanced!
Jane

Thanks Tony for your quick response!
We need to load a lot of PDfs (history + current).
I have a questions about the SQL loader. I am trying to insert a pdf file into a table by following the oracle loading sample:
http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B10501_01/text.920/a96518/aload.htm
Example Data File: loader2.dat
This file contains the data to be loaded into each row of the table, articles_formatted.
Each line contains a comma separated list of the fields to be loaded in articles_formatted. The last field of every line names the file to be loaded in to the text column:
Ben Kanobi, plaintext,Kawasaki news article,../sample_docs/kawasaki.txt,
But i don't know to where should I put my pdf file on the server.
for example:
,../sample_docs/kawasaki.txt,
Where is the file 'kawasaki.txt'??
I try my local path, it didn't work. like c:\temp.
then I loaded teh PDf file into our server(/findev20/olmtest/orafin/11.5.7/olmtestcomn/temp) , and In my data file. I put the path
1, pdf_emp1,../findev20/olmtest/orafin/11.5.7/olmtestcomn/temp
but I got the error: the system can not find the file specified.
Where should I put the PDf files on the server and how to specify the path in the data file?
Thanks!

How to save pdf file in database

Dear All,
my application is forms 6i and database is 8i,requirement is that how to save pdf file in database and users can view through forms

I'll apologize up front for the length of this post. I have a few database procedures I created that write a file to a BLOB column in a table as well as retrieve the BLOB from the column after it stored there. I have successfully stored many different types of binary file to the database using these procedures - including PDF files. I have not used these procedures in a Form so I can confirm that they will work, but theoretically they should work. I'm including the code for each procedure in this posting - hence the apology for the long post! :-)
Also, since these procedures reside on the database you will need to use Forms TEXT_IO built-in package to write your file to the server before you can use these procedures to store and retrieve the file from the database.
These procedures reads and writes a binary file to a table called "LOB_TABLE." You will need to modify the procedure to write to your table.

Hi Gobinath,
1. Create a value attribute of type byte called pdfSource.
2. Insert an UI element called Interactive Form in your layout
3. Set the source property of this Interactive From UI element to the context pdfSource.
4. Insert a button which would open your pdf file.
public void onActionsubmit(com.sap.tc.webdynpro.progmodel.api.IWDCustomEvent wdEvent )
    //@@begin onActionsubmit(ServerEvent)
   IPrivate<viewname>.IContextElement contextElement = wdContext.currentContextElement();

How to split pdf files also how to downsize a pdf file?

how to split pdf files also how to downsize a pdf file?

Hi Ali,
If the PDF file you're starting with is larger than 100MB, ExportPDF won't be able to convert it.
To convert a file of that size and to create separate files, you'll need Adobe Acrobat. You'd need Acrobat to divide the file into smaller chunks for ExportPDF anyhow, so Acrobat is probably the best solution for you. You can learn more about Acrobat here: http://www.adobe.com/products/acrobat.html
Kindest regards, Stacy

Using pages how to insert pdf files on ipad?

using pages how to insert pdf files on ipad?
Anybody have any idea, have pdf files in ibook do not see where to insert pdf's.
Also trying to get word files onto ipad using drop box, do these word files need to be saved in another format?
Also for pages.
thnx

No - the Word files do not need to be saved in any other format if you have Pages on your iPad. There are other apps that provide better compatibility than Pages but it will work for you. You have to have DropBox on your PC and the free DropBox app on the iPad to use DropBox to transfer files.
To send the file using DropBox - make sure DropBox is running on your computer. Then place the file in one of the folders that you have set in your DropBox folder on your PC. Launch DropBox on your iPad and find the folder that you placed the file into and tap on that folder. Find the document and tap on it. It will open in the window on the right. Tap the arrow icon in the upper right corner and select Open in Pages.
If you have pdf files in iBooks that you want to put into Pages you have to email them to yourself and use the Open In feature when you open the email. You cannot send a file from iBooks other than to email it - at least I am not aware of any other way.
