Inconsistencies with file saving and PDF naming

Sometimes when I save a file (or export a PDF) the assumed location is where I opened the file. Other times it the assumed location is the last place I saved a file. There does not seem to be any consistency.
Also, when I save a PDF, the automatic name when saving is sometimes the same as the name of the INDD file I'm exporting from, other times the automatic name is from an older file version of an export. For example my INDD file might be V7.INDD, but when I export to a PDF it goes back to a former version like V4.INDD.
I don't mind how something is done, but I would like consistency to prevent errors on my part. Are there settings that I'm missing?

Check the title stated in the metadata of the file. This gets created by all Adobe applications at creation of the file and if you export, print, or Create PDF the file name is gathered from that information.

Blank error message with ? appears and PDF does not open in Browser (IE11) when clicking link to open pdf. PC - IE11 Acrobat 9.0
Cannot access in browser PDF files unless blank box is closed and then website address is clicked on again in browser address bar and page reloaded.
Uninstalled Acrobat 9, reinstalled, still same problem.
Help please!

Yes I can it only happens in the browser..
I reinstalled Windows on my machine and started over a couple of weeks ago.
When my desktop started up I didn’t have Acrobat installed and clicked on a pdf file and the open with xxx dialogue box came open.
I chose a different program as Acrobat wasn’t installed yet so it associated pdf files with another program.
Later Installed Acrobat and couldn’t associate the pdf file with acrobat so I went into Folder Options and manually associated PDF files with Acrobat.
Ever since then I get the error when something is downloaded and opened in the browser.
Works fine everywhere else and when I cancel the blank error, highlight the web address and press enter to reload it works 90% of the time.
Not sure what to do..

Printing my PDF with File name and Tags Stamped on

To Forum,
Possibly not a completely Apple related query, but if anyone know it would be great.
id like to print a PDF on my MBP with the File name and Tags applied to it stamped on the paper copy... or come to think of it, stamped on the PDF copy which i then print out with those stamps on. Either way will do. Any ideas? Its not immediately obvious when i look at the Printing Prefs box.

This is an option built into various apps - Safari, Firefox, Microsoft Office.
There are "PDF Utils" that do this on PDFs one at a time. Can't find a specific one for Macs, but found 2 for Windows.

Help with numbers saving as PDF

Hi all,
I have an excel spreadsheet which I have sent to new ipad and opened in numbers. Now I know it will not support all features but the numbers version is working fine for what I need. (Electrical installation certificates)
My problem comes when I save to a pdf (this is how certificates are sent to clients), when saving to PDF the spreadsheet saves fine to one page but I then have another 3 pages containing some empty cells?
If anyone could advise I would greatly appreciate, I could send a copy which may explain exactly what I mean.

BD,
There were three blank sheet coming across in the PDF. It was a combination of two things.
1. The sheet is a little too wide for 1 page across. This was causing one of the blank pages. You can either shrink it a bit, or else use the option in Excel or Pages to auto-fit it to 1 page by 1 page. In Pages, you find this on the print preview screen, at the bottom right, just make sure Auto-Fit is on, that will shrink the document to fit on a page. In Excel, you can also choose "fit to x pages by x pages. On the Mac version, that option is on the ribbon, on the Layout tab. I'm not at work, so I can't verify where it's at on the Windows version of excel, but it's there as well. Once I clicked that on excel, it saved the doc to 94% size & it got rid of the one extra blank page.
2. The other two pages are showing up because you have the sheet you are using, but also Sheets 2 & 3 in that document. Pages has an option "Page Numbers" that is set to on. Not sure if that is by default or is just set that way for your document. Either way, it is causing Sheet 2 & 3 to print out blank, but with a page # in the footer. If you aren't using Sheets 2 & 3, just delete them, that will be the easiest solution. If you do plan to use them, then you need to go into Print preview on iPad Pages, then click the little gear & turn 'Page Numbers' Off. once I did that, it printed to PDF as 1 page, with no blank stuff at the end.
Hope this fixes it for you. Let me know if you stil have problems with it.

How to organize variables for file saving and scalability?

Hello,
I have created several CVI applications that store production data for numerous machines. To organize the data for file saving I have implemented structures. This has worked well with one limitation, the inability to scale the structure at a later date without invalidating existing files. I would like to consider alternative approaches that would allow scalability.
Here's an example of my current method...
// Definition of structure per machine.
struct machine_1
   int int_param_1, int_param_2, int_param_3;
   double dbl_param_1, dbl_param2, dbl_param3;
struct machine_2
   int int_param_1, int_param_2, int_param_3;
   double dbl_param_1, dbl_param2, dbl_param3;
// Definition of inclusive structure. (Member name and structure tag name are the same.)
struct
   struct machine_1   machine_1;
   struct machine_2   machine_2;
} machine_parameters;
To assign a value to a structure variable:
// Assign value.
machine_parameters.machine_1. dbl_param_2 = 77.47;
Then when it comes time to save the populated structures:
// Save structure.
error = fwrite (&machine_parameters, sizeof(machine_parameters), 1, dest);
The problem comes later when multiple files already exist and one of the machine structures needs an additional variable added. For example, if I need to add int_param_4 to the machine_1 structure. Adding this variable will invalidate the previously saved files because they were saved with a different structure and will not be able to be opened with a new structure containing one additional variable due to the structure definition mismatch.
I have added spare variables per data type to the structures for each machine, but it's a losing game. If I add 10 spare variables, I end up needing to store 11 more pieces of data.
Is there a better approach?
Thanks,
Aaron T.

One simple way is to output the data as ASCII comma separated values, with a newline character at the end of each row of data.
I.E., the only structure to your file data is a "row" of CSV's, with the file containing some number of rows.
Then, you load the data into Excel, and it will parse the CSV's for you and when it sees the newline, put the next set of CSV's on the next row of the worksheet.
If you ever need to expand the number of items in a row, you just add them as you generate data, pushing the newline to the right, the extra data extending the row.
So you get an Excel worksheet filled with rows of (possibly varying length) data.   So long as you add data at the end of the row when you redefine what you're saving, anything reading the file should see the same stuff that was always there.
You can write a macro to reformat or parse the CSV's once they're in the spreadsheet. With Excel 2007 supporting very large worksheets, you can put a lot of data into one. I think they expose a C interface for writing fast data manipulation of cell data now too - sort of a fast macro from the Excel viewpoint. I think the number of columns is 16384 and 1 million rows in a "Big Grid". The Excel 2007 engine is multi-threaded and you can tell it how many cores to use on a multicore machine.
So the only problem I see is the loss of local structure (your C structs get serialized and get concatenated to one another) but you could re-introduce the structure with a macro.
Or, if you were to write out serialized binary values and then view the file data using a hex editor like Neo, you can tell Neo what your C structs were and it will pick up binary file data and put it back into the C structs for viewing.
Or use MatLab to read the CSV's and reformat it.
Or use the CVI SQL interface and write it out as database records. I think the SQL toolkit costs extra, maybe it comes with the FDS.

Problems with files saving in a quicktime format

I am having a problem with files from several programs in my adobe CS6 Master Collection saving in a quicktime format. I am running a Windows7 PC. It appears to be happening in both photoshop and fireworks from what I can tell. Does anybody have any idea why this is doing it and how to fix it?

Fireworks doesn't save or export in Quicktime format.

Unable to download from AppStore, updates,etc.Messages 'the installer is damaged' to 'there might be a problem with file ownership and permissions.' I am the owner and only user of a new MBP. What could be going on?

Is anyone having the same type of problems I'm having with Lion. I have a new MacBook Pro, received 7 weeks ago, preinstalled with Leopard 10.6.7. I didn't migrate anything from my old iMac, wanted a clean install from the Apple Store. While there, I asked for the upgrade to Lion 10.7, however their system was down.
I installed it myself, wirelessly about a week later, and Apple emailed me a receipt. Now, I've had to call support directly last week when I lost Mail, Address Book, was unable to open Preview or iTunes, among other problems. Seemed fixed after a session that baffled even the store tech. Now I am unable to download or install the recent Mac updates for Lion, from the App Store, could not install Adobe Reader, etc. Messages range from 'A network error has occured - Check your Internet connection and try again' to 'The Installer is damaged and cannot open the package. There may be a problem with file ownership or permissions.' All fail and I'll probably have to call Apple again. I am frustrated beyond words. Logs 'Install's runner tool is not properly configured as a setuid tool', domain errors, 'attempt to write a readonly database, and on and on. I have barely done a thing on this computer except search online for help with these problems. Safari gives me a 'You are not connected to the internet' too often. Diagnostics disagrees. I do see wi-fi problems in the forum. Disk and permissions were fine at the beginning of the earlier problems, checked first by support tech. I'm not sure if support tech even knew. I was just happy they were fixed. Anyone have these download and/or install problems after a 'clean bill of health' so to speak, only a week ago?

Let's try the following user tip with that one:

How do I convert/merge multiple files (word and PDF) into one PDF?

I have multiple word docs and PDF files that I need to merge into one file. How do I do that?

You should be able to do it in the image processor.
File > Scripts > Image Processor
If it doesn't have the options you want, then make an action using "Save for Web", then run the action on a batch of files using
File > automate > batch
Select your action from the dropdown menu.

Problem with File Input and Output

I'm using a class named Output which takes 2 arrays as input and is simply supposed to output them to a file named myfile.txt. However, every time I call it it catches an exception and just prints out Error Writing to File. Here is the source:

               FileOutputStream out = new FileOutputStream("myfile.txt");
               PrintStream p = new PrintStream( out );
               p.print("{");
               for(int i = 0; i < 50; i++)
                    for(int j = 0; j < 30; j++)

So basically is my computer not letting this APPLET create a txt file? For security reasons, applets by default cannot access the local file system (on the client) and cannot open any network connections except back to the server that served them up. You can sign your applet, and set up permissions in the JRE that your browser runs to allow the signed applet to do things that applets normally can't. However, before starting down that path, I suggest you examine whether your applet really needs to access the local file system, and if it does, if it should really be an applet, or would be more appropriate as an application.

White screen with file icon and Question mark after a kernel panic???

I'm using my girlfriends 20" iMac and her computer keeps having kernel panics. And then at times when we restart the computer, we get a white screen with a file icon and a question mark inside. Any ideas on what to do???? Her graduation project is on that computer and she is stressed like you wouldn't believe. Safe to say, I'm taking the brunt of it. Please help!!!

It sounds like you might be having a hard drive problem. The folder icon with question mark means the computer can't find a startup drive/system folder. I suggest that you back up all important data, especially her project. Before bringing it in for service, run the Apple Hardware Test - put in your original system restore DVD and restart the computer, holdng down the "D" key. Run the extended diagnositics (it will take over an hour (depending on how much RAM you have) and will tell you if there is anything wrong with your hardware. If it dinds a problem then you can take it to the nearest Apple authorized service provider to check it out.

Performance problems with File Adapter and XI freeze

Hi NetWeaver XI geeks,
We are deploying a XI based product and encounter some huge performance problems. Here after the scenario and the issues:
- NetWeaver XI 2004
- SAP 4.6c
- Outbound Channel
- No mapping used and only the iDocs Adapter is involved in the pipeline processing
- File Adapter
- message file size < 2Ko
We have zeroed down the problem to Idoc adapters performance.
We are using a file channel and every 15 seconds a file in a valid Idoc format is placed in a folder, Idoc adapter picks up the file from this folder and sends it to the SAP R/3 instance.
For few minutes (approx 5 mins) it works (the CPU usage is less then 20% even if processing time seems huge : <b>5sec/msg</b>) but after this time the application gets blocked and the CPU gets overloaded at 100% (2 processes disp_worker.exe at 50% each).
If we inject several files in the source folder at the same time or if we decrease the time gap (from 15 seconds to 10 seconds) between creation of 2 Idoc files , the process blocks after posting 2-3 docs to SAP R/3.
Could you point us some reasons that could provoke that behavior?
Basically looking for some help in improving performance of the Idoc adapter.
Thanks in advance for your help and regards,
Adalbert

Hi Bhavesh,
Thanks for your suggestions. We will test...
We wonder if the hardware is not the problem of this extremely poor performance.
Our XI server is:
     Windows 2003 Server
     Processors: 2x3GHZ
     RAM: 4GB (the memory do not soak)
The messages are well formed iDocs = single line INVOICES.
Some posts are talking 2000 messages processed in some seconds... whereas we got 5 sec per message.
Tnanks for your help.

Issues with File Polling and File Copy in a Cluster

Hi,
I have a 2 node cluster of SOA 11.1.1.5. Running into an issue.
I have a File Poll Process which picks up new files and then copy them over to another directory [using COPY operation of file adapter]. After that using FTP Adapter to ftp the file [using MOVE operation of FTP]. Now if I place a file Poll is creating 2 instances. I have configured HAFile Adapter and HAFTPAdapter. Now if I remove the file COPY operation I see only one instance as soon as I put back file copy it creates multiple instances again. Any idea what might be wrong.
I am following the document for file copy and ftp move http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E23943_01/integration.1111/e10231/adptr_file.htm#BABEBJAF section
4.5 Oracle File and FTP Adapters Use Cases
But in a cluster if I use file copy I see multiple instances of Polling instances.
Thanks

Hi I use WLI studio to add a user in a clustered environment (admin + 2managed
wli servers). I see the following message in the logs:

As a result, the user, that I added is not actually visible to the othermanaged
servers in the cluster. I have verified this by having only one managedserver
up when adding the user. Once I have added the user, I boot the othermanaged
server and bring the first managed server down. The user I have justcreated gets
lost.
This occurs if you make the change on the managed server. Can you make the
change on
the admin server? It should get pushed to the managed servers.

Highlight File Format and PDF Documents with Chinese and English characters

I'm a developer working on an application that makes use of the Highlight File Format / external highlight server capabilities of Adobe Reader.
The highlighting worked correctly until we started to introduce pdf documents that were scanned to recognize Chinese in addition to English.
The xml file seems to have the correct values in it. For example, if the 10 characters to highlight are at position 41 on the first page. The "xml" file has the <loc pg=0 pos=41 len=10>.
If the document is scanned for English only, it works fine. That is, the highlight starts at character 41. If the same document is scanned for Chinese and English, the highlight starts at character 22.
Has anyone had a similar experience? Do you know a solution?

Hi,
I don't know about BIP and the specifics of your context, but here are some general answers for the XLIFF format:
<?xml version = '1.0' encoding = 'utf-8'?>
Can we change encoding to 'ISO-8859-1' as soon as we convert the file format ?If you also save the file to ISO-8859-1 as well yes. But you can do this only for languages supported by Latin-1. It makes sense to keep the files in UTF-8.
A-2) he section <header><skl><internal-file> contains a huge string
which seeem to be binary ... What is this ? can we delete it ?That's likely to be the skeleton file. The data used to rebuild the original format after translation.
Most likely it should stay there.
A-3) Can we have one XLF file with muliple <file> sections (one per language to translate to ) ?
This can be very useful for us to manage one only translation file per report template.Yes but no: yves you can have several <file> elements in an XLIFF document, but no: they must be for the same language pair. XLIFF is designed to work with bi-lingual files, not multi-lingual files.
A-4) the most important section for translation is included in the <trans-unit> tag .
Each one has a distinct id like ""49e41f8f" ... Can we replace this by a more meaningfull value ?Those id attributes are used by the filter to merge back the data after translation. You should preserve them.
A-5) the language format is like "en-US" (language code + territory code).
Is it case sensitive ? No it is not case-sensitive (en-us == en-US). The values of xml:lang are not case sensitive (unlike other XML attribute values).
en-US is just the recommended notation.
The XLIFF specification are here:

InDesign file saving and exporting S-L-O-W.

I am a designer using the InDesign/InCopy layout workflow. After my last post things were working pretty good for awhile. But now it is taking more than an hour to save over the network. I tried putting everything in the same folder on the network (links and all) and it still took me more than an hour just to relink a placed InCopy story. I am going mad. A week overdue for my first draft and I can't do anything. So today I decided to just use the package workflow to speed things up. However it still takes as long to create assignments even after I have saved the InDesign file and links to my desktop.
Is there any possibility this is caused by using the last document and saving as new name? Even if I have unlinked all assignments and stories first?
I've tried saving as an inx file but I lock up.
Thanks for your help in advance,
Holly

It turns out that is the issue. AnneMarie, were you able to find the other thread? I thought my problem was solved by deleting the random 40,000+ lines of garbage using a text edit program. But the random lines are re-generated each time I save the file in indesign. My IT Manager thinks it has to do with the InCopy plugin. In analyzing the 'garbage lines', here is what we do know. Each time a body of text is saved using the InCopy plugin, it is generating 62 unique id's of random URLs, and multiplies those id's 657 times...thus creating 40,000+ lines of garbage that bogs down the file. The urls are not used anywhere in my Indesign file, so we can't figure how the plugin is gaining access to the URLs to generate them.
We tested it on a brand new block of text in the file that had never been exported as an Incopy file (working off the desktop the whole time) - and the resulting .icml file still had similar URLs generated (all 40,000+). The plugin version is 6.0.0.352. Indesign Application version is CS4 6.0.4.578. Here is one URL pulled from the file: <HyperlinkURLDestination Self="u54e9" Name="URL 275" DestinationURL="http://www.evanta.com/details_popup.php?cmd=speaker&id=6963" Hidden="false" DestinationUniqueKey="694"/>
Any ideas on how to stop the URLs from generating each time I have to save the file?
