    Hi,
    Based on your code, I see your code related to
    iTextSharp Pdf.
    iText is a third party library to create PDF originally written for java. iTextSharp is
    the C# adaptation of that library.
    Question regarding iText are better asked on the iText forum, rather than the Microsoft Forum:
    http://itextpdf.com/support
    Thanks for your understanding.
    Best regards,
    Kristin

    You should be able to just place them in your Books library in iTunes and check to ensure that your Book library is configured to sync to your iPod when you sync your iPod to iTunes.

    I want to combine pdf files. I cannot find the create button or tab

    Hi yisa ajao,
    If you have bought Export PDF / Acrobat.com service you can select 'Combine files' option on the right hand side and then click on 'Select Files' button to select the files you wish to combine.
    Else if you are using Acrobat Pro, please See the link : http://help.adobe.com/en_US/acrobat/using/WS58a04a822e3e50102bd6151097 94195ff-7edc.w.html

  • In digital editions how to you access the pdf file on your computer - I want to read in acrobat

    in digital editions how to you access the pdf file on your computer - I want to read in acrobat as digital editions too hard to read.@@

    On Mac, try looking in:
    /Users/dug.geo/Documents/Digital Editions
    On Windows, look for "Digital Editions" in "My Documents". If it's not there, look one level above "My Documents".
    If you know the filename of the PDF, you could also try doing a file system search for it.

  • How do I compare 2 PDF files for equality?

    Hi,
    I want to be able to compare 2 pdf files programmatically in C#.
    I have tried using binary compare and I have found that
    2 identical files do not match due to meta data I assume.
    All I want to do is compare 2 files and match if
    the displayed part is the same. The files have text, lines
    and jpg.
    If I cant do it in C# is there any library that can?
    Malcolm

    The Acrobat SDK includes a PDF compare function but its only available to plugins (written in C/C++).

  • Compare two pdf files using adobe acrobat through command line

    Does anyone know how to compare two pdf files using adobe acrobat through command line. I want to do this via command line because we want to compare hundreds of file every day through some automated windows tasks.
    If command line option is not available in acrobat, then is it feasible to make use of acrobat javascript API to do this task?
    Any kind of help will be greatly.

    Command-line: Not possible.
    JavaScript: Possible, but very limited. Basically the only thing you can do is simulate clicking the Compare Documents button. The rest has to be done manually.
    However, it *might* be possible to automate this process a bit more using a plugin. Ask over at the Acrobat SDK forum for more information...

  • I want to insert .pdf files into a "Master" .pdf file at pre-determined intervals - how do I do this?

    I want to insert .pdf files into a "Master" .pdf file at pre-determined intervals - how do I do this?

    Hi markm11762689,
    When you insert pages, you can determine whether they go before or after the first or last page, or a page number that you specify.
    If you're inserting multiple files at once, they will all be inserted in the same spot that you specify in the Select File to Insert dialog box.
    There may be a way to handle this programmatically, and there are some very clever folks who visit these forums regularly. Let's see if they chime in...
    Best,

  • I have Windows 98 and need Acrobat to open up the pdf files for 5.0

    I have the old system, Windows 98 and presently have the free Adobe 5.0 version on my Compaq Presario Computer, and it is a 5242 model desktop.
    I have inadvertanly switched over to Compaq Carbon Copy 32 Version 5.0 but since, have uninstalled it and now, on each of what was the pdf files initially of which I have, of which is at least 16 or more, on each of those files, an error message comes up and says "PROGRAM NOT FOUND," and states the following: "Windows cannot find CCW32EXE. This program is needed for opening the pdf files." And then it has a dialogue box with the computer operational symbol in it as C:\ and then it wants me to locate it. I cannot locate it through the "auto" because, this sytem being so old, doesn't have a magnifying glass or a "search" tool to do this in the "My Computer Icon on the Desktop as the Compaq people wanted me to do. I would have to do this manually. I have already talked to the Compaq people on their chat line and because of this, they said they couldn't help me with this problem and referred me over to you.
    I've tried to find a download for 5.0, though I really don't think I need one since it is currently installed. I believe the proper way to fix this is to just convert the CCW32EXE over to the Acrobat pdf files and have those files opened and should open up all of my 15 or so files altogether at the same time because they all converted over to something else at the same time prior.
    Are you able to help me?
    But I believe to alleviate this problem, if you could just give me the information to be able to open up the pdf files to 5.0 and find out what download I may pursue, it might be able to correct this problem. I already have the 5.0 Acrobat installed, however.

    Hi Aandi,
    I have followed your directions and I have the old system of Windows 98, so I had to go to "programs" and come up to Acrobat 5.0 and once in there, all of the Window there is greyed out, although I can still go to the tool bars above in it. I went to "file" and went to "open" and from there, I received an "open" window with a dialogue box in it and in that dialogue box as I scrolled down, it wants me to put in there, one of the following, "desktop," "my documents," "3 1/2 floppy [A:]," "[C:]," "system _save [D:]," ""[E:," "[F:]," ete; of these which do I pick in the "open" dialogue box? and down at the bottom, is the FILE NAME and what do I put in there? Just below that, it has the FILES OF TYPE which has there Adobe pdf Files, in it's dialogue box. I hit these, but I still get an error message of which basically says, "NOT FOUND, please put in proper file name given." And I don't know actually where it is given.
    So, as you see, I am a novice in all of this and you can contact me at my e mail address which is [email protected]
    and should a reply be needed, I'll come back to the forum for a reply.
    I really need to open up the Adobe 5.0 pdf files. All of the pdf files, simultaneously went over to Compaq Carbon Copy 32 of which I since, uninstalled. But I really need to get back and open the Adobe 5.0 pdf files.
    And I want to thank you for your support and eagerly awaiting your help.
    Thanks,

  • How could I get the pdf-file output to contain more than one page from certain homepages

    2011-08-22
    I have been using Firefox for many years now. I like this browser better than Safari. However. I have a problem when I have connected to a homepage over the web and want to write the content out to a pfd-file. The pdf-file does sometimes contain only one page. The material is good enough for two or more pages of output. I have checked that using Safari browser. I´d like to continue using Firefox so please tell med what to do!
