  • How to write a text file in Acrobat Javascript?

    I am using acrobat XI I have tried output a text file like this
    var cMyC = "abc"; var doc = this.createDataObject({cName: "test.txt", cValue: cMyC}); this.exportDataObject({cName: "test.txt", nLaunch:0});
    This is working , but I would like to provided a fixed path and no dialog is popup to request the user choose a saving path
    Are there any way to fix the problem? thanks

    Actually, what I am doing is :
    There is action wizard which apply some javascript effect and modify the file one by one in a specific folder,
    And currently I am using PHP to execute command line to run task scheduler,  the scheduler runs a batch program that run the action wizard (named sequence?) so the PDF file is modifed one by one
    Since the batch runs only one time for a folder instead of run each time for a file, I would like to detect whether a file is success or not , so I think of create a text file as detect signal to determine whether the operation is success.
    So , simply, are there any way to check whether a file is success in a batch sequence operation? thanks

    Hi,
    here is a commented program stanza
    var v = this.getField("myTextField").value;
    // Get the contents of the file attachment with the name "MyNotes.txt"
    var oFile = this.getDataObjectContents("MyNotes.txt");
    // Convert the returned stream to a string
    var cFile = util.stringFromStream(oFile, "utf-8");
    // Append new data at the end of the string
    cFile += "\r\n" + v;
    // Convert back to a stream
    oFile = util.streamFromString( cFile, "utf-8");
    // Overwrite the old attachment

    var oFile = this.getDataObjectContents("MyNotes.txt");
    var cFile = util.stringFromStream(oFile, "utf-8");
    this.getField("myTextField").value = cFile;

    how to upload a text file from a shared folder and provide an o/p  containing the details in each order in the text file

    Hi,
    Use <b>GUI_UPLOAD</b> to upload a text file from a shared folder.
    Use <b>GUI_DOWNLOAD</b> to download data in a file on the presentation server or use <b>OPEN DATASET, TRANSFER</b> and <b>CLOSE DATASET</b> statements to download data to the application server.
    Now, I hope the code for data fetching, if required, is already present in the report.

  • How can I read text files from LAN if I only know the hostname?

    I'm new in Java Developing, and dont know the written classes yet. I need help, how to do the following steps?
    <p>1. How can I read text files from LAN if I only know the hostname, or IP address?
    <p>2. How to read lines from text files without read all lines from the beginning of file, just seek to a position.
    (ex. how can I read the 120th line?)
    <p>Please help!
    <p>sorry for the bad english

    I'm new in Java Developing, and dont know the written classes yet. I need help, how to do the following steps?
    1. How can I read text files from LAN if I only know the hostname, or IP address?You need to know the URL of the file. You need to know the hostname, port, protocl and relative path.
    The hostname is server, not file.
    2. How to read lines from text files without read all lines from the beginning of file, just seek to a position.Use the seek() to get to a random byte.
    (ex. how can I read the 120th line?)The only way to find the 120th line is to read the first 120 lines. You can use other file formats to find the 120th line without reading the whole file but to need to be able to detremine where the 120th line is

  • How to download a text file from the server

    hi everyone,
    can anyone tell me how to download and read a text file from the server and saved in into resource folder.
    with regards
    pallavi

    its really easy
    To read from server, use something like:
    HttpConnection connector = null;
    InputStream inp_stream = null;
    OutputStream out_stream = null;
    void CloseConnection()
         if(inp_stream!=null)inp_stream.close();
         inp_stream=null;
         if(out_stream!=null)out_stream.close();
         out_stream=null;
         connector.close();
         connector = null;
    public void getResponse(String URL,String params)
      try
         if(connector==null)connector = (HttpConnection)Connector.open(URL);//URL of your text file / php script
         connector.setRequestMethod(HttpConnection.POST);
         connector.setRequestProperty("User-Agent","Profile/MIDP-2.0 Configuration/CLDC-1.1");
         connector.setRequestProperty("content-type", "application/x-www-form-urlencoded");
         //connector.setRequestProperty("charset","windows-1251");
         //*** If you need to send ("arg1=value&arg2=value") arguments to script use this:
         out_stream = connector.openOutputStream();
         byte postmsg[] = params.getBytes();
         out_stream.write(postmsg);
         int rc = connector.getResponseCode();//in any case here connection will be opened & closed
         if (rc != HttpConnection.HTTP_OK)
              CloseConnection();
              throw new IOException("HTTP response code: " + rc);
         inp_stream = connector.openInputStream();
         int pack_len = inp_stream.available();
         byte answ[]=new byte[pack_len];
         inp_stream.read(answ);
         CloseConnection();
         ProcAnswer(answ);//process received data
      catch(Exception ex)
         System.err.println("ERROR IN getResponse(): "+ex);
    } And you can read from resource file like
    public void loadFile(String filename)
        DataInputStream dis = new DataInputStream(getClass().getResourceAsStream("/"+filename));
        String str="";
        try
             while (true)
                ch = dis.read();//read character
                if(ch=='\r')continue;//if file made in windows
                if(ch=='\n' || ch==-1)//end of line or end of file
                    if(str.length()==0)continue;//if empty line
                    //do some thing with "str"
                    if(ch==-1)break;//it was last line
                    str="";//next line
                    continue;
                 str+=(char)ch;
           dis.close();
       catch (Exception e)
           System.err.println("ERROR in loadFile() " + e);
    }Welcome! =)

  • How do I move text files from my desktop to my iPod Touch?

    How do I transfer (export) text files from my Mac (word processor files) to the Notes app on my iPod?

    I am going to assume that I can move individual profiles, or even delete profiles that I no longer need.
    Just be aware that if you delete or don't move profiles that are currently assigned to images LR will (without warning) reassign those images with the Adobe Standard profile.
    You can use AnyFilter, Data Explorer, or DevMeta plugins to determine if any images are assigned to a profile you want to delete. You can then reassign the profile of your choice. Once that's completed you can safely delete the camera profile.

  • How to copy/send text file from FTPS to SAP ECC File Port

    Hi Frdns,
    I am working on one design, actually my requirement as follows
    I am receiving financial information document from Banks, which is in the form of BIA2 message format, it looks like text file. This information needs to be sending to SAP ECC system.
    I identified some approaches to full fill the requirement
    1)Using Conversion agent/or third party tools to convert BIA2 message in to XML, then using PI I will pick up the XML message, convert it in to IDoc.
    2)Without any conversion I will copy the same file (original BIA2 message) in to SAP ECC file port, in this case no conversion required, calling some program I will schedule it.
    I am looking forward t implement the second approach because it saves lot of money to my client.
    Now I am wondering using File adapter can i copy to SAP ECC File Port or I required ABAP proxy?
    What is the best approach to copy the BIA message text file from FTPS to SAP ECC File Port.??
    Regards,
    Raj

    Hi Raja,
    >>Now I am wondering using File adapter can i copy to SAP ECC File Port or I required ABAP proxy?
    Yes you can do this copy, the only restriction that can happen is the file size.. If you are sure that the fiel will be of few MB at the max then you can use the Configuration part alone and copy it to ECC folder. For doing this you need the following:
    1. Sender agreement (mention the sender interface as anything XYZ)
    2. Sender communication channel. Pick the file in binary mode
    3. Receiver determination (keep both the sender and receiver service as same)
    4. Interface Detemiantion (dont specify any mapping and keep the receiver interface name as XYZ)
    5. Create receiver agreement (with same service and interface)
    6. Use file adapter here

  • How to read a text file from other machine???

    I have a text file located in local machine. I use th e code below to retrieve data from that particular text file.
    String realPath     = (String)getServletContext().getRealPath("");
    BufferedReader holsFile = new BufferedReader(new FileReader(realPath + "/webpages/holidays.txt"));My question is , how could I retrieve the records from the tsxt file if the file is located in another machine or webserver?
    Thanks for advanced.

    It's ok to be new.
    The answer is yes. (But I'll let you look in the javadoc to see which package it's in).
    Also it may be worth understanding that there is no such thing as a "function" in java, operations are termed "methods". To go further, you should realise that URL is a class not a "function" or method. The parentheses mean you're calling the constructor.

  • How to write 3 AVI files from 3 different cameras connected to 3 PCI 1411's?

    I have a multiple camera acquisition vi and a AVI read/write vi, but I want to acquire from 3 cameras and write 3 AVI files simultaneously. The multiple camera vi uses buffers but the AVI read/write vi does not(I think). How can I accomplish my goal?

    Your best bet is to use the new IMAQ Vision 7, which was released last Tuesday, I believe. It now has native support for writing compressed AVI movie files. These VIs are used the same way the Write BMP.vi and other file I/O VIs are used in IMAQ Vision 6.1.
    Writing 3 files simulateously should be fairly straightforward. If you can get it to work with one camera (img0), then just copy and past the code two more times for img1 and img2. Also write to three different AVI files. That's all you should have to change! Bandwidth to the harddisk may be another matter all together...

    Dear Vinayak prabhu,
    I cannot make use of the stored procedure (using the util_package) or the Text_io package (from forms). This is because, only normal operations (like put_line,get_line...)are possible using the above procedure calls.
    Since I would like to change the "size" and "font" of the text written to the file, i would be requiring a procedure (package) wherein the above properties can be set for each line or para or page ..etc.
    Can you suggest me a suitable solution ?

    Hi Ramnath
    In forms you can use text_io package to read or write to a ASCII file or else write a stored procedure and use util_file which also does the reading and writing to a ASCII file.This stored procedure can be called from a form.
