How to view a PDF file

Hey, i was wondering if anyone knew how to view a PDF file in Java? I'm trying to make a button that will open a PDF file. Is there any other way without downloading an extension?

The thing with downloading extensions is that they are not free. Some are trial version. iText and Jasper are probably free and stable to a great extent. Plus they allow you to play with PDFs, Excel, Bar charts, Pie charts, CSV etc etc without the hassles of the heavyweight Swing.

  • How to view aspx PDF files in Safari 4.0.3

    Hi,
    Using Safari 4.0.3 on os 10.5.8. I'm trying to view PDF files that are supposed to be viewed and editable within the browser (this is how the site works on a pc using internet explorer). When I click the relevant icon on the site, the site asks me if I'm sure I want to view that file (this is normal), and I click accept. Then Safari simply downloads the aspx file into the downloads folder. To the extent I could open the aspx manually using Reader (I can't), it wouldn't help anyway because the file is meant to be edited within a web browser, and within the pdf there are options to "save," "save and close," etc. I need to be able to open and view this file from within Safari.
    I have the latest Adobe reader and made sure the settings allowed for opening of PDFs from the internet.
    Any thoughts?
    Thanks.

    I concur with Kirk Olson1's comment above, and have been unable to solve this 'til reading this post.
    Change the .aspx extension of a saved file to .pdf and presto, Preview opens the doc for reading without complaint. This may not solve the problem the user has with editing the file within their browser. But the .aspx file, without a doubt, is in fact a file of "some" sort that is readable by Preview. As to the properties of editing the file, I can't speak to that. Since I am using this to read and save my bank statement, I would hope that the ASPX file is a signed document that can't be edited without the change being detectable... otherwise, what purpose is served by introducing a new filename extension ASPX for PDF files???
    I've had the same "Browser can't view/open ASPX file" problem under Mac OS 10.5.* and Safari and Firefox. A bank provides me with "PDF" files (so they say) that download (to view, or file-save-as) with the .aspx filename extension. Firefox 3.5.* doesn't handle them. I've not downloaded Adobe products to my Mac and have avoided doing so because I don't want Adobe mucking with the way Preview works, etc.
    In an experiment, I am unable to coerce Preview to open a copy of the same file while it had the .aspx extension (via Ctrl-Click the aspx file, Open_With, Enable All Applications to Open). Preview just sits there without opening the file, no error dialog, and I don't see any telltale warnings in the console log either. The same file, with a filename extension changed, no problem opening and viewing.

  • How to view a pdf file as a slideshow in iDVD

    I have created a document in PAGES that I have saved as a pdf file. I would like to have this as a chapter in a family movie that I want to burn as a DVD.
    I have done this before but cannot remember how.! I think I went through iPhoto and iMovie and ended up in iDVD but cannot find the right sequence of commands

    I often forget this procedure when it's time to do this also. Sure would be nice if apple added an article to their knowledge base on how to do this (as opposed to having to sort thru dozens of posts to find this info). Anyway, glad you are up and running with this.

  • How can I disable viewing of PDF-files in browser in Adobe Reader XI?

    Hi everyone
    After I have upgraded to Adobe Reader XI, I not longer can find the checkbox under settings>Internet, where I can disable that Adobe Reader XI viewing PDF-files in my browser.
    If I instead press on the button, I can see in the dialog box Adobe refers to an article there give me instruction to turn off the viewing of PDF-files via my browser settings. When I follow these instructions, I can see that the plug-in to Adobe is disabled when I not viewing PDF-files in my browser, and enabled when I viewing PDF-files in my browser.
    Therefore:
    1. Why has Adobe removed the checkbox where I can disable viewing of PDF-files in my browser?
    2. How can I now disable and enable viewing of PDF in my browser?
    My operating system is Windows 7 64-bit, and my browser is Internet Explorer 8.
    Very thanks.
    Regards,
    Boholdt

    Hi again
    I have read the article, but I can still not find the plugin I should
    disable in Internet Explorer 8.
    If I see a PDF-file in my browser, I can select and disable a plugin called
    PDF Adobe Reader, but next time I open Internet Explorer 8, I not can see
    the plugin.
    Another method is between the guide for accessibility
    (edit>Accessibility>Setup Assistant. On screen number 4, you can find the
    checkbox.
    Since I am blind, I can find the assistant.
    For my interessting, it is possible for sighted users of Adobe Reader to
    find the same assistant?
    Very thanks.
    Regards
    Boholdt

  • How can I view a PDF file on my IPad? I only get the first page.

    How can I view a PDF file from my Ipad, both in email and Internet links? I only get the first page.

    Support for viewing PDFs in emails and web-pages is built in to the iPad. You need not have bought an app for that.
    There are PDF apps that provide more features than the built-in functionality, but for basic viewing of multi-page PDFs no app is required.

  • How can I store and view a pdf file ?

    I have an iphone 3GS 32Gb and want to store a pdf file on my phone so that I can view it later.
    Email is the only way I have been able to view my pdf file, but I dont really want to do it this way.
    On previous phones I could save a file on the phones memory card and then open the file in the necessary app.
    This is something I know the iphone doesnt do, but I was wondering if there is a way around it or an app.

    [File Magnet|http://itunes.apple.com/gb/app/filemagnet-read-and-e-mail-your/id2847971 61?mt=8] is pretty good.
    I did find one app (I cant remember the name, thought it was Air Share) and it said Apple had told them to change the app so that you cant transfer files over USB, only Wi-Fi.
    I think that was [FileApp|http://itunes.apple.com/gb/app/fileapp-previously-fileaid-document/id2 97804694?mt=8], (previously File Aid).
    Apple dont like people being able to use their phone like this.... bloody control freaks.

  • Mavericks 10.9.1. Freezes or trackpad becomes slow and unresponsive when viewing downloaded PDF files in Preview.Help!

    The earlier post was my first attempt at posting and had some typos. Repeated with typos corrected.
    I have a Macbook Pro Retina 13" Late 2013 with preinstalled Mavericks.I now have the 10.9.1 update. Almost from the time of purchase in Nov '13, I have been experiencing freezes and slow & unresponsive trackpad. I have more or less narrowed this symptom as happening when viewing downloaded PDF files. The only option is to force eject, if available or shut down. I spoke to Support as I thought it was a RAM issue and they told me that in Mavericks RAM showing almost full was normal as it uses RAM differently. They took me through some resets and cleaning up which has helped a little but freezing stll happens. This never happened with my Macbook AIr running Lion. Any suggestions?

    So a PDF file that you can view in Preview on your MBA causes your new MBP to lock up and/or slow down. Is this right? Also you say more or less narrowed down to PDFs with Preview but does the computer exhibit this behavior with other programs and if so under what conditions? And how much free hard drive space do you have?
    Viewing memory use in Mavericks is different than with previous versions of the OS. Today it looks like we need to pay attention to what Apple calls Memory Pressure which is gauged by the bar graph in Activity Monitor and to the Virtual Memory being used. When the memory pressure graph bar gets too high it turns red and that's bad news. Looking at how much memory is being used doesn't help - I have a 16GB computer and with almost nothing running it still shows something like 15.79GB used but the memory pressure graph is just a think green line. So unless you see the memory pressure bar turning red lets not worry about memory usage at the moment.
    If among the things AppleCare had you do was reinstall Mavericks then I recommend a trip to the Apple store - and take a problem PDF file with you to demonstrate.

    How can I transmit PDF files from my Mac to my iPad, How can I transmit PDF files from my Mac to my iPad

    Yes you can definitely do this. You'll need an app on the iPad that handles PDF viewing and editing. There are many around - two of the best I've seen are GoodReader and PDF Expert.
    In iTunes when you iPad is connected to your PC, go to the Apps tab and scroll down and you'll see the File Sharing section. You can drag files to there to share them to your iPad.
    You could also look at online file sync services like PDF to ePub Maker if you prefer not to have to connect your iPad to a PC

  • How to create a pdf file from multiple images ?

    Dear All,
    I want to create a SINGLE page pdf file from two or more page size images that are combined to make a single page pdf. Again, this question is on pdfs that are made out of several, atleast  two color images and a black-and-white mask for one of them.
    I have such pdf files from an unknown source (the producer is edited out) whereby there are three tiff images, obtained using the well known pdfimages extractor.
    When I want to make a pdf out of tiff or png or other image formats, I right click and tell Adobe Acrobat to make a pdf.
    However, I dont know how I can give a command to select say,  three tif images and specify which is the mask for which and then join  them in a way that I get the pdf from the composite of the two color images and a mask for one of them.
    Please help me out.
    I am a little familiar with the pdf structure skeleton and when necessary, fixed xref tables in one of my favorite editors. A few years ago, I also wrote a bunch of javascripts to make some annotations and needed some automation and used some itext type libraries. However, I need your help in this problem as I am now rusty and forgot some of what I studied to solve my earlier problems. This is a new problem for me. Gentle hints from you would be very nice to help me in this problem. Please specify if necessary what manual and pages to read. in the pdfspec.

    I would gladly mention that I am working on windows platform, preferably XP.

    But adding other products, for the help of an adobe products user,
    even if it outside adobe, shall add greater prestige to your company
    and give impression of user-centeredness.

    Well, just add the few pdf stanzas since you are proficient on it and
    I am presently a little rusty as I mentioned. Just asking a little
    extra yard, not even to go an extra mile.

    Well, ascii format or uncompressed format that is human readable. I
    know its a binary file, but human readable ascii version of it.
    I hope you can give me some stanza and various other approaches
    possible so I can select or combine things for myself. I see only a
    miniscule number of posts claiming to have written masks in this forum
    and then with no details.
