How to use command line with acrobat to extract page(s) from pdf file?

I have adobe acrobat, and have a pdf file with over 500 pages. I need to extract small chunks of pages from it as seperate pdf files. I was hoping I could use command line interface to do this faster.
Something like:
acrobat src des start end
so for example
adobe file.pdf my_folder 3 5
Is this possible? There are many chunks and I don't want to manually do it for every chunk. Command line would be much easier...
Thanks

I can't find any programs... sorry.
Can you create one for me please.
It should at least have these 5 arguments: (well the first one is not neccessary since were not using acrobat anymore...)
[program] [src path/src file] [destination path/file name] [start page (inclusive)] [end page (inclusive)]
for example:
acrobat ./my_file.pdf ./my_folder/chunk1.pdf 3 5
if start page == end page, then it only extracts that one page.
So this way I can just stack these comands on a .bat file or something (maybe like 100 commands), then run the bat file, and it will create all the files.
Thanks for doing this, it is appreciated.

How to create user in workspace using command line with Internal APEX

Hi fellows,
I'm newbie with APEX and my i try doing something different. I need to build one application in Internal for create users in another workspaces. So, for do this, need use command line and PL/SQL code.
I know exists a CREATE_USER procedure. But, this procedure just create a user in Internal, not in workspace, like i want.
Its possible? Someone can help me?
Example of create_user procedure:
BEGIN
APEX_UTIL.CREATE_USER(
     p_user_name => 'NEWUSER2',
     p_first_name => 'FRANK',
     p_last_name => 'SMITH',
     p_description => 'Description...',
     p_email_address => '[email protected]',
     p_web_password => 'password',
     p_developer_privs => 'ADMIN:CREATE:DATA_LOADER:EDIT:HELP:MONITOR:SQL',
     p_default_schema => 'MY_SCHEMA',
     p_allow_access_to_schemas => 'MY_SCHEMA2',
     p_change_password_on_first_use => 'N',
     p_attribute_01 => '123 456 7890');
END;
Thank you.

Did you try it like this?
DECLARE
   l_workspace_id      number;
BEGIN
    l_workspace_id := apex_util.find_security_group_id (p_workspace => 'MY_WORKSPACE_NAME');
    apex_util.set_security_group_id (p_security_group_id => l_workspace_id);
APEX_UTIL.CREATE_USER(
     p_user_name => 'NEWUSER2',
     p_first_name => 'FRANK',
     p_last_name => 'SMITH',
     p_description => 'Description...',
     p_email_address => '[email protected]',
     p_web_password => 'password',
     p_developer_privs => 'ADMIN:CREATE:DATA_LOADER:EDIT:HELP:MONITOR:SQL',
     p_default_schema => 'MY_SCHEMA',
     p_allow_access_to_schemas => 'MY_SCHEMA2',
     p_change_password_on_first_use => 'N',
     p_attribute_01 => '123 456 7890');

How to extract the image from pdf file

     Hai friends........
         Is it possible to extract the images in a page from pdf file.
         If so. please share with me.......
    Thanks in advance,
    abu

In later versions of Acrobat you can select an Image with the Select tool, then right-hand click for Save options.
------------->
It helps if you quote your exact version of Adobe Acrobat/Reader - choose [Help, About...] to find this.
Also useful: Version numbers of other software (e.g. Word) if relevant. Age of computer and amount of memory (RAM) available (r/h cllcking on 'My Computer' and choosing Properties gives you this, plus processor speed).

How to use Javascript, C#, or Java to automatically fill out a PDF file using ACROBAT PRO

Hi.
I have purchased a copy of acrobat pro and am currently using it to try to create a method of populating certain fields in a PDF file.
This particualar scenerio is a printable cerficiate, it has a spot for the persons First Name, Last Name, and other basic info.
So we have an exisiting editable PDF, a database with the user's info, and a ASP.NET web server, and of course Acrobat Pro.
How can I use these components to create an auto fill script?
Ideally, we'd genereate these certs on the fly, and allow users to download them.
A code sample would be awesome.
Thanks!

I've discovered that you can create a "PDF Form" and edit that form with Javascript.
My question now is, what is the prefered method for controlling the pdf form?
I would like to include the PDF file in an HTML page and edit the form fields using javascript in that HTML page.
I think that this is how developers are meant to work with dynamic pdf files.
In the acrobat javascript reference, it only shows an example using the acrobat javascript console.
If anyone has used Javascript with PDFs, I would highly appricate some input.
Thanks,

How to use same taskFlow with inputparam twice on page

Hi,
I have 2 taskFlows (Task1, Task2) with imputParams and CallMethod default activity.
Tsak1 is form, task2 is table.
I need to use Taskflow 1 twice on same page.
TaskFlow1(without param)-taskFlow2(get param from taskflow1)-TaskFlow1(get param from taskFlow2).
Based on this example [http://andrejusb.blogspot.com/2010/04/communicating-between-adf-regions.html]
If shared data control is checked - taskFlow1's refresh both like copy.
If unchecked - region's doesn't refresh and taskFlow2 can't use inputParam like #{data.taskFlowTest_view_view3PageDef.Oid.inputValue} (because i have 2 same taskFlow with this param).
Can I use one taskFlow for this and how?

For the Taskflow, set the data control scope for the task flow to "isolated" change the behavior.
Thanks,
Navaneeth

How to use h:message to display HTML code in message from property file

I am using <h:message for="somecomponentid"/> to display the error message for a validator attached to a component and the error message which resides in message property file contains HTML elements like <br> and
The HTML doesnt get displayed properly and the code <br> etc is displayed instead.
Is there a method to get h:message to display HTML elements correcly.
[I know there is an h:outputFormat which has an escape parameter to allow HTML to be rendered correcly but it has no for parameter to specify the component id whose validation error message I want to display]
eg.
<h:message for="somecomponentid"/>
to display from errormessages.properties
com.somecompany.thevalidationerrormessage=You have an error<br> Please click here to return to homepage

Hello Ivan,
Fortunately I have just recently found a solution to my problem by using code by a developer who had already had this problem in the past and who provided a patch on the Apache MyFaces jira site.
See following link for the solution I downloaded and then used :
http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MYFACES-155
I believe they are intending to eventually release this in a future release of MyFaces extensions on this site.
I used the escape attribute on the tag to allow 'escaped' html code in error messages to be used.
Hope it solves your problem too..

Acrobat 8 standard - Removing pictures from PDF files

I hope this is an easy one to answer but I'm having troubles removing pictures from a PDF file and I need some help, can anyone answer please?

If standard has the Object touchup tool, you can select them and then delete them. I suspect that this may have the same problem as the redact tool as mentioned by graffiti.

Read in file name + path using command line arguments

Hi guys,
I am trying to use command line arguments to read in the name of two files. The code below works as long as the files are on the class path.
public class cmdLineArguments {
     public static void main(String[] args) {
          String xmlFile1 = args[0];
                String xmlFile2 = args[1];
          System.out.println ("\nXmlFile1: " + args[0] + "\nXmlFile2: " + args[1]);
}I would like to be able to read files that are not on the class path as well by entering their full path along with their names.
In other words, It works if I type:
C:\Documents and Settings\user\workspace\CmdLineArgs\src>java cmdLineArgs file1.xml file2.xmlbut not if I type:
C:\Documents and Settings\user\workspace\CmdLineArgs\src>java cmdLineArgs c:\Documents and Settings\user\desktop\file1.xml c:\Documents and Settings\user\desktop\file2.xmlWould anyone please explain how I can edit the code to make it work? I guess I could take them both as a String, modify them manually (add a \ to it etc) but is there an easier way to do it? Even a reference to a tutorial, article etc about this would be very much appreciated.
Also, any idea why a code would compile and run fine in Eclipse but would create an error from command line?
Thanks a lot.

You need to learn about cmd.exe which is used to process the command line. The arguments passed to any program is the command line split at white space so your command line arguments of
c:\Documents and Settings\user\desktop\file1.xml c:\Documents and Settings\user\desktop\file2.xmlis turned into an array of
"c:\Documents", "and", "Settings\user\desktop\file1.xml", "c:\Documents", "and", "Settings\user\desktop\file2.xml"In other words instead of 2 arguments you actually have 6.
To get round this the file names need to be quoted
java cmdLineArgs "c:\Documents and Settings\user\desktop\file1.xml" "c:\Documents and Settings\user\desktop\file2.xml"

I want to use command line to execute an oracle report?

Dear all,
I am using Oracle Application. Does anyone know how to use command line to execute an oracle report?
I mean execute command from client to server.
Please advice,
Amy
Edited by: amychan60 on Dec 13, 2009 11:33 PM

Hi,
Using Oracle Application Server the standard way for a client to request a report is via a HTTP request. This doesn't really lend itself to use directly on a command line on a client however you could use the following:
explorer "http://your_server/reports/rwservlet?report=report_name.rdf&userid=userid/password@db_sid&paramform=no&destype=FILE&desname=c:\temp\filename.pdf&desformat=pdf"
This will load explorer and submit that URL for you and request the report. You can change the parameters depending on the report output you require.
If you need something that is silent (ie doesn't load in explorer) you'll need to investigate other ways of submitting that URL request, perhaps using Java. You could also use SRW.run_report (Event Driven Publishing) to submit the request using SQL.
Cheers,
Toby.

Command line with flash magic

Hi :
I want to control on flash magic application using command line with Labview, I look into this application and I see that I can send through command line all I need
Please read what they said aboue using command lines
Before you can run FM.EXE on the command line you must set up your PATH environment
variable to point to the folder FM.EXE is stored in. This is done automatically during
installation, however you must restart your machine before the change to the PATH variable
is recognized when using Windows 95/98/ME. You must restart your machine or log out
then back in again before the change to the PATH variable is recognized when using
Windows NT/2000/XP.
Commands are passed to FM.EXE in the form or either directives or a Command File
containing directives.
The command line will have the following syntax:
FM [directives]
For example the following command line:
Description: Specifies the PC Serial (COM) communicating
Type:      Configuration
Syntax:    COM(port, baudrate)
      Where:
      port    The COM Port t

          38400
          57600
Output:    Connected
      Or: Connection failed: reason
      Where:

                        COM(0x01, 2580H)
I try to used this command line with Labview but I always get error attach see file please
What I am doing wrong ?????

Hi CofeeBreak,
Thank you for your comment, but I was able to find the problem (didn't solve it yet): In the FM command line interface, calling a HEX file located in a folder with brackets in its name, such as "C:\hello_World(V1)\LabVIEW.hex" will not be recognized by the FM.exe, whereas "C:\hello_World_V1\LabVIEW.hex" will work just fine. In the Flash Magic GUI and Command Line Manual section on hex files there is no mention of that, my solution at the moment is to remove the brackets from folder names.
Thanks
Amir

Deploy EAR file into WAS using command line

hi,
I have an EAR file and i want to deploy it into WAS using command line interface.
I have seen the SDM_commandline.doc file in SDM directory ..it talks about deploying SDA's and SCA's :-
> sdm deploy file=<...>
however it is not working for EAR files...is there any way to deploy EAR files directly or should I convert the EAR to SDA and then deploy using this command.
thanks

For NW Java releases prior to 7.1, an EAR file needs to be transformed into a SDA file, then it can be deployed. For later releases, an EAR file can be directly deployed.

Hi
This is very simple (to the best of my knowledge)
sqlplus userid/password@hoststring @pl_sql_file_name.ext [arg1] [arg2] [arg3]
sqlplus - to invoke oracle
userid - is the login id into oracle db
password - is the password
hoststring - is the ORACLE_SID
pl_sql_file_name.ext - is the pl_sql file you wish to run
arg1, arg2, arg3 - the arguments that you may be refering in the pl_sql script. arg1 refers to &1 in your script and arg2 refers to &2 in your script and arg3 refers to &3 in your script.
Have fun!
Good Luck
