Indexing PDF's with policy

I'm using PS with MS SharePoint. Using Adobe's IFilter and a custom developed webpart, i am able to index and search into PDF's. That's true for non-encrypted or secured PDF's. When i try to search for any document with a policy applied i get no results.
My guess is that the indexing service (the ifilter) can not open the document because it's restricted for opening. I've tried with a PDF file with "require password" to open (no with the policy server) and the result is the same.
What i'm going to do is to implement custom code to use both the ifilter and the policy server API to get the result.
Has someone did something like that? I really need to know some suggestions to address this issue.
Regards.

Don't copy plug-ins between versions of Acrobat - very bad idea! Are you really saying that you don't know how to make a catalog in Acrobat 11? In Acrobat X see this page: http://help.adobe.com/en_US/acrobat/X/pro/using/WSC28D4DBB-6A78-4027-9E04-F50FE411CFB9.w.h tml
For Acrobat XI, check out your own help file if that doesn't help.

Indexing pdf documents with indextype ctxsys.context

I have an application that stores the contents of uploaded documents in BLOB data fields. We provide web pages which search through the uploaded documents based on text entered by the user. We currently upload both MS Word .doc and HTML documents. For the HTML documents, which are made available to the public, we index the table with the following procedure:
CREATE OR REPLACE procedure WEBADMIN.index_redacted_docs is
begin
declare
cur           PLS_INTEGER;
exec_int           PLS_INTEGER;
counter          number;
begin
select count(*) into counter
from user_indexes
where index_name = 'DOCS_CTX_REDACTED_IDX';
if (counter = 1) then
ctx_ddl.sync_index (idx_name => 'docs_ctx_redacted_idx');
else
cur := DBMS_SQL.OPEN_CURSOR;
DBMS_SQL.PARSE (cur, 'create index docs_ctx_redacted_idx on documents_ctx_redacted (blob_content) ' ||
     'indextype is ctxsys.context parameters (''filter ctxsys.null_filter'')', DBMS_SQL.NATIVE);
exec_int := DBMS_SQL.EXECUTE (cur);
DBMS_SQL.CLOSE_CURSOR (cur);
end if;
exception
when others then
     DBMS_SQL.CLOSE_CURSOR (cur);
     raise;
end;
end;
We run this process after every uploaded HTML file and are able to locate documents which contain any text entered by the user. The portion of the command we use to query the documents_ctx_redacted table (blob_content is the BLOB field in this table) is (using "corn" as a sample query text):
WHERE (contains (BLOB_CONTENT, 'corn', 10) > 0)
Our customer is now asking that PDF files be uploaded as well and searched in the same manner. After the PDF files are uploaded (into the same table as the HTML files) and the index updated, with the above command ctx_ddl.sync_index (idx_name => 'docs_ctx_redacted_idx'), since the index already exists, we cannot get any rows returned with the above WHERE (contains .... ) clause. We know the text we're looking for (such as "corn") is contained in the PDF files, but the search does not find them, although it finds the HTML documents just fine. I've also tried dropping the index entirely and recreating it, but that also only finds the HTML documents but not the PDF's.
What are we doing incorrectly with the PDF files? Thanks.

We are using Oracle version 10.2 . I looked at the relevant Oracle Text documentation for that version, and the best I could glean was that PDF files are supported by the filter ctxsys.auto_filter (rather than null_filter) when creating the index. I dropped the existing null_filter index and created a new index with the auto_filter parameter, but the end result was the same. I still get no PDF records found when issuing the command (using "corn" as the text query)
WHERE (contains (BLOB_CONTENT, 'corn', 10) > 0)
although the HTML records show up fine again.

When I publish a pdf collection with index to a CD, the index won't load

I am using acrobat XI pro. I have a pdf collection with 30 chapters, a table of contents that is linked to each chapter, and an index. I have inserted a bookmark for the table of contents in each chatper. There are lots of cross chapter links. It all works beautifully on my computer, I can click links between chapters, go back to table of contents using bookmark on each document, and conduct a search that uses the right index and breaks results down per chapter. But when I burn the folder to a CD and install on another computer, the index won't load and the table of contents link is broken. the index is there on the CD, every file and the file structure looks identical to what is on my computer hard drive. I have tried different methods of burning the disc. They all say they are successfully burned. But when I insert into another computer (have tried a laptop and desktop), I either get an error message about the index or it just create it at all. I deleted the index and all of its associated files and recreated from scratch, associating each of the 30 chapter to the index again, but still does not work. Help, past deadline already!

I fail to see the issue. You have added crop marks, have you not? For all intents and purposes those are marks that are supposed to be visible and printable for cutting in the real world. If you don't want them, don't use them. Acrobat can generate them on the fly for printing, anyway.

Adobe PDF iFilter 9 for 64-bit platforms does not index my PDF files with Digital Sign

Adobe PDF iFilter 9 for 64-bit platforms does not index my PDF files with Digital Sign, why?

hi Phillip
i am not sure what you mean
I downloaded the ifilter and installed it
then configured everything as shown in the pdf file
I tried indexing from scratch exactly as i did successfully in the other computer
and got some errors in the log file
i checked the sql server log and the event viewer logs and got :
Error '0x80004005' occurred during full-text index population for table or indexed view '[Pirsumim_ext_ck].[dbo].[T_PUBLICATIONS]' (table or indexed view ID '2073058421', database ID '14'), full-text key value 0x0000027A. Attempt will be made to reindex it.

Indexing PDFs with legacy Indexing Service

I have a .NET application that uses the old legacy Indexing Service on Windows Server 2003 SP2 (32-bit). What do I need to install to make it index PDFs? I've installed XI Reader (as I understood that the iFilter was built into this now?) and I've restarted Indexing Service and done a full re-sync, but it still doesn't seem to be finding any PDFs (also tried a reboot).
Thanks

It appears that the answer was to uninstall XI and install 9.5. I believe Adobe made changes to the iFilter from 10.x onwards so that it no longer supports an old method that is used by Indexing Service. This thread was useful: http://forums.adobe.com/message/5115337#5115337

Want to Send smartform as pdf attachment with a Email to some mail id

Hi ,
I want to send a smartform as a PDF attachment with a mail to a mail id. And I can send a mail with the PDF attachment.
But I am not able to open the PDF. It is throwing some error (Adobe reader could not open u2018fileu2019 because it is either not a supported file type or because the file has been damaged (for example , it was sent as an email attachment and was not correctly decoded)).
By debugging I come to know that the file which is generating is in some encoding format.
Please help me regard this. This is very urgent.

Install 3rd party PDF iFilter for index PDF file as attachment in e-mail (msg)

I have called Microsoft Permium Support, base on the reply, SharePoint 2013 does not support to index a PDF file attachment in E-mail (msg) except 3rd party iFilter installed. And they finally told me how to edit Windows Registry for install the Adobe iFilter.
But, the Adobe iFilter is too weak to call large PDF files. So, I would like to install and try the Foxit PDF iFilter, but I cannot find an installation guide for this 3rd party ifilter with SharePoint 2013.
Does anyone here have the experience for Foxit PDF iFilter with SharePoint 2013 can help me?
I am not sure it is bug or feature in SharePoint 2013, but in case I still have to install 3rd party iFilter for index PDF file. I have no idea what is the out of box pdf file indexing support for.

You ca plan to use Foxit.
steps are nearly the same which we use in sharepoint 2013
1. We need to update registry for pdf . Registry value is {987f8d1a-26e6-4554-b007-6b20e2680632}
2. we need to install the foxit ifilter
Here are steps for same
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2293357
3. run below command:
net stop spsearch4
net start spsearch4
net stop osearch14
net start osearch14

PDF annotation with link, image doesn't show, only in print or Google Chrome, not Adobe Reader main

We are creating PDF files with annotations, we are using the O2 Solutions PDF Library for C#. We used to create PDFStampAnnotations, but now we want to make the images clickable, to navigate to the URL belonging to the image.
Therefore, we are now using PDFLinkAnnotations, with a PDFImageAppearance.
We set the flags of the annotation to Print.
However, the annotation won't show in the PDF in Adobe Reader. It does show in the Google Chrome inline PDF viewer.
It also shows in the print preview window in Adobe Reader.
But it does not show in the normal view in Adobe Reader. What we do see is, when hovering over the rectangle that should contain our image, our mouse cursor becomes a hand and a tooltip with the link is displayed. If we click, everything works as expected. But we don't see an image!
What can we do about this? This is really annoying, as I don't have a clue why it won't work. Actually, to me, this looks like a bug in Adobe Reader?

Thank you for your reply.
Indeed, I tried saving a PDF that had the "default appearance", it shows exactly the same. So it looks like it "can't" show the image.
However, of course, I do want the image to be shown. How can I achieve this? How can I tell Adobe Reader (and other PDF viewers) I really really realllyyyyy want to see that image there? I believe I'm not doing anything really exotic, right? There must have been tons of other people that wanted to do the same thing, I guess?

                                Contents = AnnotationIdentifier,
                                Appearance = new PDFImageAppearance(bitmapImage),

Is possible in acrobat reader fill in and save interactive PDF created with LiveCycle Designer?

is possible in acrobat reader fill in and save interactive PDF created with LiveCycle Designer?

Hi,
Only if the form has been Reader Enabled before it is sent out to the user with Reader.
There are two ways of Reader Enabling the form. One using Acrobat Standard v9 or Acrobat Professional v8 (both have license restrictions). The other is to use LC Reader Extensions ES2, which is a server product (additional costs).
Some info here:
http://www.assuredynamics.com/index.php/2010/11/using-livecycle-forms-in-acrobat-and-reade r/
A search of the forums for "Reader Extensions" or "Reader Enable" will give more information.
Hope that helps,

Enable and encourage user input in PDFs (viewed with Adobe Reader)
with FrameMaker-to-Acrobat TimeSavers + Form Assistant
Half-hour webinar (free; no fluff, no hype, no nonsense)
Wednesday, June 5, starting 9am PDT
Register at: https://www3.gotomeeting.com/register/157658438
Enabling PDFs for various types of user input can strengthen the interaction between users and the content, and improve satisfaction due to greater user involvement/control. In addition, designated avenues for user input can contribute to documentation quality and provide outlet for frustration, for example by sending inputs regarding the documentation or the product directly from within the PDF.
Techniques demonstrated in this webinar include features that are all embedded in PDFs that are viewed with the free Adobe Reader:
• text fields where users can record data values and options
• checkboxes to track progress
• page marks and notes (optionally e-mailed)
• embedded grading/feedback forms
• storing of useful search queries within the PDF for future use

PDF Output with javadoc

Somebody once asked how to create PDF output with javadoc, so here's some work in progress:
I am currently creating a PDF doclet which creates directly PDF output from javadoc. It's still in alpha stage, because it does not yet create an index or navigation frame (which is mandatory for the PDF to be useful), and most HTML tags are not yet interpreted. But that's gonna improve over the next few weeks.
http://sourceforge.net/projects/pdfdoclet
Bye,
Marcel

Hai Marcel,
How to run this pdfdoclet?
I tried like:
javadoc -doclet com.tarsec.javadoc.pdfdoclet.PDFDoclet -docletpath d:\For_PDF_Doc\itext-0.92.jar;d:\For_PDF_Doc\pdfdoclet.jar *.java
And the result is:
Loading source file Test.java...
Constructing Javadoc information...
pdfdoclet: >> OPTION 0: -doclet
pdfdoclet: >> OPTION 1: -docletpath
pdfdoclet: Content completed, create index
pdfdoclet: *** PDF DOCUMENT api.pdf COMPLETED ***
Nothing is there in api.pdf!

PDF conversion with PDF2ID; Hypertext not working when exported back to pdf.

I have done a PDF conversion with PDF2ID, however Hypertext is not working when I exported it back to pdf. I am using the PDF2ID plug-in program to redo all the product booklets for our company as the hypertext did not work when downloaded to any smart phone. All that appeared were blank placeholders in each booklet index page.
According to the PDF2ID people the program plug-in recovers all URLs static and dynamic and bookmarks and local links and suggested I check with Adobe ID5 for help, but Adobe says my $1,000 ID5 is no longer supported and that I should go to the forums.....so here I am.
This is the first time I've even opened my ID5, so I'm a bit lost. Now I need to improve the quality of the PDFs, as we also need to convert all images to TIFF-CMYK in order to have the booklets printed & bound professionally. they tell me ID can do that.
Any help is greatly appreciated.
David

Ugh...in some companies, that is training.
Don't take this the wrong way David, but of course ID can't do anything. PDF2ID conversions can be sketchy in the hands of the experienced. The same can be said of properly preparing matials for print. As Bob has already alluded, you're in an unfair position there. It's not uncommon for "management" types to just throw some sophisticated tools at a need and expect someone to make it work. In order to do what's being asked of you, you'll have to learn a fair bit about InDesign and production. It's too soon to ask about the output when you haven't learned to manage the input.

Using PDF's with Webcenter Imaging

Hey
We are installing an automated AP solution using WebCenter imaging and our client has dictated that invoices must be scanned to PDF to comply with State Govt requirements. However, this conflicts with our IPM build as we are using WebCenter Capture and it only inputs invoices in TIF format. We have told them that we can scan to TIF and output PDF using the ODC/OFR, or by converting them using IBR when the image hits WCC. The Record Manager is adamant though, and this conversation is ongoing.
In the meantime, I am trying to think laterally to find a technical solution. The only two ideas I have so far are:
1. Use Import Server to conver scanned PDF's to TIF before batching them up.
2. Use a third party solution to create a TIF copy of the PDF after scanning.
I'm not really happy with either idea, so I thought I'd seek the advice of the collective. Surely this must be a common-ish problem.
Cheers,
A

Hi Alec,
to be precise, ODC allows inputs (in a scan profile) of TIFF, JPEG, PCX, or BMP (see http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E10316_01/capture/odcad.pdf page 11-4)
If you have images already in PDF (I guess it will be PDF/A with textual layer), the first question is: why you want to use Capture at all? Is it because you want to extract some metadata from the image? Maybe, you could, then, use OutsideIn to convert PDFs into XML (or plain text) and get your metadata from there. Afterwards, you would upload your PDF with obtained metadata directly to Imaging.
I also think that Import Server does not convert file format, but rather takes the file and adds in to a batch (for indexing/committing), so on condition that it can grab PDFs, you should be good to go with Import Server as such - it's been a while since I've done something with Import Server, so I'm not sure of all details. If you have an environment up and running, it should be easy to verify. Either way, Import and Scan are the only options to get inputs into batches, so if Import does not work for you, you can't use Capture anyway.
I hope that helps, Jiri

How to open pdf file with command?

I had trouble to open local pdf file with command by WebBrowser control in IE.(The Acrobat version is 6.0 or 7.0 in my PC)
The pdf command can be getted in this:
http://partners.adobe.com/public/developer/en/acrobat/PDFOpenParameters.pdf
I open a local pdf file in IE with pdf command "#Page=3&Pagemode=thumbs" firstly, and then I open the same pdf file without pdf command in other IE, but the second times the pdf file in WebBrowser still show page=3, other than page=1.
That is to say, the pdf command will affect others WebBrowser process after set .
