IFilter 9 not searching OCR .PDFs post SP2 for Office 2007 Servers

Prior to the installation of Service Pack 2 for Office 2007 Servers, .PDF files that were scanned in and then ran against Optical Character Recognition software could be searched with the iFliter 9 for Windows MOSS, x64. Now, those specific files no longer are searchable however; files that were converted directly from another application, such as MS Word or Excel, that were converted directly into .PDF files work fine. Has anyone ever seen anything like this or can give me a direction to go to get this resolved? Adobe's support for this product is non-existant and I am sure Microsoft will not be a help since it is not their product.

See if this discussion helps:

Export to excel using service for office 2007

Hi All,
I am using a service to download the opport search result data into excel. Inside the code, it gets all the data and opens one window of excel download and closes automatically after few second. And finally does not download anything.
It is working for office 2003, not for office 2007.I am following piece of code.Please help me how to achieve the same.
DATA: l_xstring TYPE xstring,
      app_type type string,
      app_type_c(50) type c.
app_type = 'APPLICATION/MSEXCEL; charset=utf-16le'.
      app_type_c = app_type.
      CALL FUNCTION 'SCMS_STRING_TO_XSTRING'

server->response->set_data( data = l_xstring
                             length = lv_length ).

Maybe it's possible, but I doubt it.
Reason is that you're asking the URL to run the report and then once done export out the values and I just don't think the 'i' - or now 'g' versions support this.
This was why the command line interface with the Desktop version was so popular as this is exactly the kind of thing you can do, plus much more.
I checked the documentation for Plus and can find nothing about doing this in the URL. Maybe someone will say otherwise, but with Plus I don't think it's possible.

Zen V Plus support for Office 2007 Supp

Hi All?Anybody heard when the Zen V PLus will have support for Office 2007 to be able to synchronize contacts, etc.Message Edited by stevenvj on 06-20-200703:20 AM

well, I got a very very quick response from Creative. I don;t know if what they said to do will solve my problem but they sent a very detailed list of things to do so we are now off to copy the info from our zen v pluses in case we lose what we put on them and will post an update to let you all know if we solved this and how. While I am not impressed with the product at this moment if this works? then I will be very impressed with how this has been handled so far....

Web Location URLs for Office 2007 documents (pptx, xlsx, docx) not working

In our current Content Server solution implemented, each content has a Web Location URL and a Native File associated with it. The Web Location URL(for a content in Public security group) is of the following format:
http://ucmurl/groups/public/intranetcontent/CONTENT_ID.doc
So far when a user clicks on this link, they are just presented with an 'Open' 'Save' dialog box, which clearly shows that UCM identifies this file format. So for a Word 2003 document called test.doc, the Open-Save dialog box says:
Name: test.doc
Type: Microsoft Word document..etc.
The behaviour is the same for all Office 2003 documents, pdfs and images. However, it seems like UCM does not identify Office 2007 documents. When I check-in a content - test.pptx, and click on the Web Location URL, it prompts me to Open/Save a 'ZIP' file, which is what UCM does for any unidentified file formats.
Any suggestions on how to fix this?
The file formats under configuration manager have been updated to include the following formats with PASSTHRU conversion (since we dont need any conversion on these):
pptx: application/vnd.openxmlformats-officedocument.presentationml.presentation
docx: application/vnd.openxmlformats-officedocument.wordprocessingml.document
xlsx: application/vnd.openxmlformats-officedocument.spreadsheetml.sheet
The desired functionality is that when the user clicks on web location url, UCM should identify these file formats, and NOT consider them as ZIP files. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Try these - if you're using IIS. If not, them something similar should fix.
Update IIS to include additional MIME types
Also, if you want to add all of the Microsoft Office 2007 mime-types to IIS in one step you can do this:
1. Stop IIS
2. Edit the metabase XML file (C:\WINDOWS\system32\inetsrv\MetaBase.xml) using a text editor.
3. Search for the <IIsMimeMap Location="/LM/MimeMap" â€¦> element and append the lines below to the MimeMap attribute
.docm,application/vnd.ms-word.document.macroEnabled.12
.docx,application/vnd.openxmlformats-officedocument.wordprocessingml.document
.dotm,application/vnd.ms-word.template.macroEnabled.12
.dotx,application/vnd.openxmlformats-officedocument.wordprocessingml.template
.potm,application/vnd.ms-powerpoint.template.macroEnabled.12
.potx,application/vnd.openxmlformats-officedocument.presentationml.template
.ppam,application/vnd.ms-powerpoint.addin.macroEnabled.12
.ppsm,application/vnd.ms-powerpoint.slideshow.macroEnabled.12
.ppsx,application/vnd.openxmlformats-officedocument.presentationml.slideshow
.pptm,application/vnd.ms-powerpoint.presentation.macroEnabled.12
.pptx,application/vnd.openxmlformats-officedocument.presentationml.presentation
.xlam,application/vnd.ms-excel.addin.macroEnabled.12
.xlsb,application/vnd.ms-excel.sheet.binary.macroEnabled.12
.xlsm,application/vnd.ms-excel.sheet.macroEnabled.12
.xlsx,application/vnd.openxmlformats-officedocument.spreadsheetml.sheet
.xltm,application/vnd.ms-excel.template.macroEnabled.12
.xltx,application/vnd.openxmlformats-officedocument.spreadsheetml.template
4. Save the C:\WINDOWS\system32\inetsrv\MetaBase.xml file
5. Start IIS
6. Perform Collection Rebuild on Content Server

How to customize search in WS 7 and for multiple virtual servers?

I'm not clear on how to customize search results pages in Sun Web Server 7. The documentation (the Adminstrator's Guide, page 215) says:
You can take a look at the default search application located at /bin/https/webapps/search as a sample application
but I'm not seeing any such thing. I did a find . -name search -type d from the server root and instance root but the only search directories I'm seeing are subdirectories within the generated directory and they look like system generated jsps that I shouldn't touch (So I didn't :-)
So one question is, where is the default app? A second question is, how do we set up different branding for different virtual servers?
We're currently using WS 6.1 and it has a field in the GUI for the directory containing the web app to use for search. That seems to have disappeared in WS 7.
Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.
Dave

I don't use the search engine, so I'm afriad I don't have direct experience here.
What I'd probably do is modify the app so that it looks at the Host data to determine which directory it should point to for graphics, formatting, etc. You could also use the obj.conf with variables to pull graphics from directories appropriately branded. Something like:
1) Create "additional doc directory" for images
2) Find the entry in the obj.conf that points to the new directory
3) Modify the path to something like /path/to/$host/images
4) Make sure you create directories like:
/path/to/foobar.com/images/
/path/to/www.foobar.com/images/
/path/to/baz.com/images/
/path/to/www.baz.com/images/

Uploading files Mime Type not correct for Office 2007 default extensions.

hi all,
My company has recently moved over to MS Office 2007 and the default extensions for word, excel etc are now .docx, xlsx etc (ie xml based).
Unfortunately now when we upload files through APEX to the database the MIME TYPE value for these files isn't being recognised and not loadeding correctly into the APEX_APPLICATION_FILES table and subsequently any future retrieval of these files fails.
I could put some logic inthe up load procedure to look at the filename in APEX_APPLICATION_FILES and hard code in the releavnt mime types but this still causes problems when retrieving the content.
Has anyone come across this and got a workround? Is it a bug in AE?
regards
James
FYI - using APEX 3.0.2 over 11G.

I have not any response to my question and not sure if it is in Apex I need to look or the tomcat server that I need to look. I have a useful application to try to show others what Apex can do for our customers to collaborate. However, most of our customers are using office 2007 so, hoping this is possible.
I am using apex 3.2.0.00.27 if that helps someone to point me where to find more info on being able to have Word 2007 or excel 2007 fire up to open a .docx or .xlss file stored in a table blob column. Word or Excel does fire up to open .doc and .xls files.
The following is the query for a report selecting the filenames uploaded into a blob column in my table:
{ SELECT s.ID, SUBSTR(s.NAME,INSTR(s.NAME, '/',1,1)+1,length(s.NAME)) SHORT_FNAME, s.SUBJECT
FROM spp_attachments s
WHERE s.PROGRAM_ID = :P2_PROGRAMID }
Below is the stored procedure called from the link on the short_fname column in report query above.
{ create or replace PROCEDURE download_file(p_file IN number) AS
v_mime VARCHAR2(48);
v_length NUMBER;
v_file_name VARCHAR2(2000);
Lob_loc BLOB;
BEGIN
APEX_APPLICATION.G_FLOW_ID :=245;
IF NOT (wwv_flow_custom_auth_std.is_session_valid) then
owa_util.status_line(404, 'Page Not Found',true);
return;
else
SELECT MIME_TYPE, BLOB_CONTENT, name,DBMS_LOB.GETLENGTH(blob_content)
INTO v_mime,lob_loc,v_file_name,v_length
FROM spp_attachments
WHERE id = p_file;
-- set up HTTP header
-- use an NVL around the mime type and
-- if it is a null set it to application/octect
-- application/octect may launch a download window from windows
owa_util.mime_header( nvl(v_mime,'application/octet'),
FALSE );
-- set the size so the browser knows how much to download
htp.p('Content-length: ' || v_length);
-- the filename will be used by the browser if the users does a save as
htp.p('Content-Disposition: attachment;
filename="'||replace(REPLACE(substr(v_file_name,instr(v_file_name,'/')+1),chr(10),NULL),chr(13),NULL)|| '"');
-- close the headers
owa_util.http_header_close;
-- download the BLOB
wpg_docload.download_file( Lob_loc );
end if;
end download_file; }
Thank you,

Adobe Reader 9.x crashes when opening PDF's created using Office 2007

I work on the helpdesk side for a big corporation and many of our users are reporting that when they try to open a PDF, it locks up their Internet Explorer or Reader 9.x
We noticed that the problems were only caused by PDFs that were presentations created in PowerPoint, then saved as a PDF with the Office 2007 Save as PDF plugin. So what we did was engaged an engineer at Microsoft to look into the issue. They did a lot of troubleshooting and narrowed it down.
They think that if the presentation was created using PP 2003 then opened in PP 2007 then saved as a PDF then this causes AR 9.x to crash. So what they did was remove the slide number, and added a new slide number using PP 2007, save it as a PDF then it opens in AR 9.x
All other versions of AR can open the PDF under the same scenario.
Has anyone else experienced this issue?
Thanks

It's almost identical to what you posted. I think the difference was that I was trying on a machine with complete install of Acrobat which has the font packs and hence there was no hang/crash. Your file doesn't hang on that machine either.
If you look at the fonts panel in your document: File>Properties>Fonts, you'll notice that it uses MS-PGothic font which is a Japanese fonts, and hence the Japanese font pack might fix this.
Also, since you mentioned ACE.dll, the other possibility might be that there are conflicting DLLs on the system, commonly referred to as DLL Hell. Another thing to try would be to search the system for ACE.dll and see which all software install it.

PDFMaker can't produce pdf's in MS Office 2007 after upgrade to Acrobate Standard 8.1.7

I get an error message saying PDFMaker cannot locate the Adobe PDF Printer's printer driver. Please re-install Adobe Acrobat 8.0.
I can still print to the Acrobat printer using the print out menus in Office 2007, so there IS working printer drivers, but I don't know where to set Acrobat PDFMaker to find it.
Anyone?

This sounds like a known bug for a non English version of Office. See this post for more info.
There is a Microsoft Developer answering questions.
Other options:
1) Disable MERP
Library/Application Support/Microsoft/MERP2.0 -prefs > deactivate
2) Remove these duplicate fonts:
Library/Fonts/Microsoft
Andale Mono
Arial Black
Arial Narrow
Arial Rounded Bold
Bauhaus 93
Comic Sans MS
Georgia
Gill Sans Ultra Bold
Impact
Tahoma
Trebuchet MS
Run Font Book to make sure there are no more duplicates found. More info
Run Font Nuke to delete font caches.
3) Fix for Non-English version:
This example is for Polish version MS Word. Not sure what this will do for future upgrades.
1. Go to Aplication folder > Office > and find Word
2. Click right mouse button and select show package content
3. Go to Contents > Recources
4. Change name folder from pl.lproj to en.lproj
You can download the English version until a fix is offered. Installs 14.3.8,

Adobe 9 Pro not working properly after upgrading to MS Office 2007

I have Adobe 9.0.0 Pro on my Windows XP machine. We had been using MS Office 2003 (Word, Excel, Powerpoint, etc) and I had in my prologue.ps file added a bookmark to be added when I create a pdf. This worked fine. We then upgraded to MS Office 2007 and the bookmarks are now NOT created. The only difference is the change from Word 2003 to Word 2007. Also if I have a Word document with Times New Roman font and I create the pdf, the font changes from Times New Roman to something that looks like Arial. If I save the the document as a pdf, it changes the font. If I print the document as a Adobe pdf, it comes out find. Any suggestions on how to fix the issues?

Our machines are locked down for any changes. Any updated/upgrades/changes must be made by our IT folks.

Hi Susan,
As my understanding, your development and production environments are two (two way) trusted domains in one forest, and the SharePoint instance was built on the development domain. If this is the truth, please first verify whether your production domain account
profile has been imported into the user profile service application. If it is not, refer to the following article to check the configuration of your user profile synchronization.
https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ee721049.aspx
If your user profile can be searched correctly, the issue might be caused by fact that the people picker search was limited to the development domain. Please use the following command to configure the people picker search domains:
stsadm –o setproperty –pn peoplepicker-searchadforests –pv <list of forests or domains> -url <WebApp>

Acrobat add-in for Office 2007 Word

I had a problem with the tab for acrobat in Word 2007 it suddenly decided to disappear. I found it in the disabled add-ins. but it would not re activate.
the solution was to completely remove the add-in and then add it back in from the file menu. all now works as it should

Presenter has never been a "free" download. If you are a
member of the Authors group in Connect then you can get your plugin
from the "Getting Started" link on your homepage. The current build
is Presenter 6.2 and it does work in Office 2007.

Version 7.2 PDF GENERATOR compatible with OFfice 2007 ?

Dear,
I didn't find any documentation about this point.
Is 7.2 compatible with Office 2007 ?
Thanks a lot for your reply.
Jérémy Demylle

That is all great and fine yet I ALREADY PAID for the one I have - shouldn't have to pay FULL PRICE for another one...at the very least they should allow me to upgrade or update to fit my new version of window not buy an ENTIRE NEW program! Not cheap!

Support for Office 2007 files (especially docx) ?

Hi,
can you please give me a hint if it's possible to use ora-text with the current office 2007 file formats ?
I need to have support for word 2007 (docx) format very soon
Is it already available ?
If not, is there a plan to support those formats ?
Thank you

Hi,
the workaround descrived above would also work for your plsql app. Therefore you can use the PL/SQL XSLT Processor in order to extract the content needed from the office 2007 documents. See DBMS_XSLPROCESSOR.
What is your business case? How do you store and index your documents?
p.s Here is an example of an xslt to extract the text content from an docx document. The internal structure of docx document is based on the Open Packaging Conventions (see http://openxmldeveloper.org/articles/OPC_parts.aspx )
