Insert graph in a document

Hi,
I have the report generation toolkit and I want to save many waveform graph in a Word document. I've done the test and 10 pictures make my file 1Mb big. It is very possible that for this application I have to save much more graph. That would imply a huge file and I don't want this. Is there any possibility to save some disk space?
Thanks in advance

Mackemann,
I have faced (and still to resolve satisfactorily) a similar situation.
Pls find attached .zip of my thread on this. We handle the 1:1 printing using AutoCAD.
Other waveforms are sent to a word file by capturing an image of the control (the graph). It adds to the file size as you rightly pointed out.
I am not sure if this will work but how about sending the waveform data array to an exel file and then make excel convert it into a graph?
Let me know if you make any breakthrough on this problem.
Best,
Gurdas

Am unable to insert table and graphs into word document in labwindow/CVI? can any one help me ?

Are you using the Word Report Generation instrument? You can find it in toolslib\activex\word\wordreport.fp under the CVI directory.
The instrument comes with a sample project that shows how to include table and graphs in a Word document: see samples\activex\word\wordrpt.cws in the samples foder of your CVI installation.
Proud to use LW/CVI from 3.1 on.

Word Insert Graph.vi

Hi,
I currently use the NI_Word.lvclass:Word Insert Graph.vi to insert some graphs into a document.
I pass the data to this VI as a 2D array, where the top row of the array represents the x-coordinates, and the other rows represent the y-coordinates. The particular graph in question has multiple plots, where each plot is represented by a given row of the array.
This works fine, unless I want omit a given point of a particluar row/plot. As it is not possible to have an "empty" element in the middle of a 2-D array, I don't know how to pass the data to the VI.
If I set the element to zero, this has the unwanted effect of plotting a zero point on my graph.
See the respective attachments to illustrate my point.
Cheers,
Dan

Thanks for the response.
However, this does not do what I want it to.
Your VI deals with strings, whereas I need to deal with numbers.
With an array of strings, it is permissable to have an empty element (i.e. an element consisting of a blank string). However, this is not allowed in a numeric array.
See the attachment for an example of an array I would pass to the Insert Graph VI if I could.
However, I realise this is not possible, so I am looking for a way around the problem. I think this is more a question of programatically manipulating graphs in Word, than an array issue.
Cheers,

Inserting graphs on Buzzword

How do I insert a graph I made in excel to a document on
Buzzword? I'm typing a paper that requires me to insert a graph
from excel to Buzzword. I made the graph and now I can't put it in
the paper I am typing. It will not allow me to insert the graph. I
need the graph in the document because it supports the information
I typed. Is it even possible to this?

hi, You can create a new table or you can insert an image in

I have been having trouble with inserting pages in a document in indesign

having trouble with inserting pages in a document in indesign

You're going to give us more information for us to help you.
What operating system? What version of InDesign? What happens when you insert a page (and how are you choosing to insert a page)? Does it happen with just one file, or does also happen on a clean new file?

Insert hyperlinks in pdf-documents

Since Mavericks you can´t insert hyperlinks in pdf-documents. I miss this option in the preview. Are there any other possibilities?
(I have MS Office for apple, therefore the links get lost, if I convert it to pdf).

No one here can guess what "Apple wants." This is just an end user forum. There are open source alternatives to Pages and Office you may want to research: https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-6941

Possible to insert a HYPERLINK in document HEADER?

Subject: Possible to insert a HYPERLINK in document HEADER?
I have a 300 page document, where the first page is a "Table of Contents".
I would like to provide the readers with a QUICK way ("no-brainer/easy" way) for the reader to JUMP back to that "Table of Contents" page from any place in the document.
Can I, perhaps, insert a hyperlink to the "Table of Contents" in the document HEADER? Or is there a different way to go about this?
Thanks for anybody's creative answer (the simpler the better . . . .)

Hi.
Thanks for your reply.
It was originally a Microsoft Word document. I just clicked "convert to pdf" from the toolbar. Then, in Acrobat 8, I have inserted a page-number header.
Can I perhaps insert a hyperlink within that HEADER . . . pointing back to the first (Table of Contents) page?

Inserting jpegs into word2010 documents

I have just been through a long seige with Microsoft TS (which cost me 39 bucks) about the fact that I cannot import images into a word 2010 document. They comes in as black rectangles. I can import images from my HP scanner, from the WEB, from screenshots, etc, but any images that was formatted in Lightroom or Nikon NX come in as a black rectangles. That includes JPG and TIFF. The only suggestion I could get from Microsoft was that I should be using software other than Adobe. The other weird thing is that word2010 works properly on my laptop. Both machines are Dell W7, 64bit.

I normally import images from NEF to DNG to a Lightroom catalog on my photoarchive on an external HD. Once I have finished processing and organizing them, I export selected images as JPG at appropriate sizes to appropriate directories on the internal HD on my computer. I no longer do many newsletter publication type things, but I just tried one in which I typed a body of text with word2010 (just installed, and working fine for most other things). However, when I tried to use Word's "insert>picture" capability, referenced to the appropriate JPG image file on the HD, the low resolution JPG images come in as black rectangles, no matter what the image size. I fought it for several days--once in a while the image would come in properly, and immediately turn black. The extra weird thing is that Word2010 works fine on my laptop. I can import the same JPG images over my (wired) network from my desktop to the document on the laptop, no problem, but if I then send the resulting properly-formatted document from the laptop back to the desktop, the images will turn black when they hit the desktop. The only way I can do the illustrated newsletter thingy is to write it to Acrobat and send it to the desktop for printing, or just print it from the laptop. Both desktop and laptop are running W7ultimate and are 64 bit machines. As I think I mentioned in the post, everything works fine with jpgs that from screenshots or JPEG scans from my HP multifunction printer, so long as the scan was never imported to a Lightroom catalog, OR Nikon NX.

Insert a A4 pdf document keeping scale.

When I insert a PDF A4 document (in the same way as a photo) with a technical drawing it is showed on a smaller scale than it has in the pdf document . I need to insert pdf documents keeping the scale. Anybody can? Thank you very much if you can help me.

Thank you from Spain for helping me to find the solution.
If you are interested I´ll tell you.
I don´t know the words of your menu in english but lets try.
The way is the following:
Archive/place/ Activate: Show Import Options
Then you choose the option trim.
The Ok. Click on the paper and the pdf appears perfect and not scaled.
Thank you again.

Firefox (15) inserts a "Firefox HTML document" in Windows Explorer File New menu. It breaks my works patterns (Alt FWF stops working). Need to disable.

I often use the shortcut Alt FWF to create new directories on Windows.
When FF 15 is set as default it alters the File New menu from Windows Explorer.
It inserts a "Firefox HTML document" item.
This item seems to sabotage the above key combination. It intercepts the last F.
In addition I object to the naming which is plain wrong, for me.
I have deleted the registry key that inserts this thing. Unfortunately it re-appears.
I want to stop this behaviour.
How do I kill this. (Other than by making another browser the default.)

I'm not seeing that on Windows 7 (which I'm sure is no consolation to you).
Since Folder usually is the top item on the new items menu, can you use
<br>Alt+f w Enter
until someone comes up with <s>a better workaround</s> an actual solution?

Insert Fields From INSPECTOR DOCUMENT INFO into Pages Document

I was able to do this since the DOS version of MS Word and would be rather surprised if there is no way to do it in Pages. Is there a way to insert "Document Info" about the present document into the present document?
Am trying to work up my own template for manuscripts. I use the Document Info dialog and would like to have information like Author and Title dropped into the document via a field like can be done with Page Numbers.

Bingo.
I built a script inserting the infos extracted from the Infos dialog.
--[SCRIPT insertdocumentinfos]
Enregistrer le script en tant que Script ou Application : insertdocumentinfos.xxx
déplacer le fichier ainsi créé dans le dossier
<VolumeDeDémarrage>:Utilisateurs:<votreCompte>:Bibliothèque:Scripts:Applications:Pages:
Il vous faudra peut-être créer le dossier Pages et peut-être même le dossier Applications.
Définir dans un document Pages le point d’insertion des infos sur le document.
Aller au menu Scripts , choisir Pages puis choisir “insertdocumentinfos”
Le script extrait les infos de l’inspecteur Document > Infos et les insère dans le document.
--=====
L’aide du Finder explique:
L’Utilitaire AppleScript permet d’activer le Menu des scripts :
Ouvrez l’Utilitaire AppleScript situé dans le dossier Applications/AppleScript.
Cochez la case “Afficher le menu des scripts dans la barre de menus”.
Sous 10.6.x,
aller dans le panneau “Général” du dialogue Préférences de l’Éditeur Applescript
puis cocher la case “Afficher le menu des scripts dans la barre des menus”.
--=====
Save the script as a Script or an Application : insertdocumentinfos.xxx
Move the newly created file into the folder:
<startup Volume>:Users:<yourAccount>:Library:Scripts:Applications:Pages:
Maybe you would have to create the folder Pages and even the folder Applications by yourself.
Define, in a Pages document, the insertion point for the document's infos.
Go to the Scripts Menu, choose Pages, then choose “insertdocumentinfos”
The script extract the infos from IOnspector > Document > Infos and insert them in the document.
--=====
The Finder’s Help explains:
To make the Script menu appear:
Open the AppleScript utility located in Applications/AppleScript.
Select the “Show Script Menu in menu bar” checkbox.
Under 10.6.x,
go to the General panel of AppleScript Editor’s Preferences dialog box
and check the “Show Script menu in menu bar” option.

Excel Insert graph set position

Hello,
I want to generate an excel report with a graph.
I use the VI "Excel Insert Graph.vi" to set the parameters for position and size, but in the report the graph use only the size parameter. I can't set the position of the graph in y report. See attachment.
Does anybody have a solution or an idea?
Attachments:
Excel_report.zip ‏41 KB

No one answered this question but 4 years later I ran into the same problem. So here is why you cant set the position with the position/size input of the Excel Insert Graph.vi:
You connected the string "A4" to the "name ("")" input of the insert graph vi. (like on the Bar Graph(Excel). vi example). If you do that, then the graph start position will be column A, row 4, no matter what you write in the position/size input.
Hope this answer can help oher people who use the labview example to base their excel vi on.

Excel Insert Graph (Need Help!)

Hi there!
I am new to LabView, and trying to use the Excel Insert Graph vi. I am not sure what it means by "report in", I have tried to convert my file path for my Excel report into a string, but it won't take it, and the help says "links a report to the vi's used to control report appearance, data, and printing." Do I have to use another vi to open the Excel file first? Any help would be appreciated, thanks!

Message Edited by Ke Sun on 10-19-2006 04:35 PM

Take a look at the example VIs in your [LabVIEW]\examples\office folder. There are several examples that deal with Excel and Graphs in MSGraph Examples.llb. You must use the "New Report.vi" to generate a new report, which gives you the reference you can then use with the Excel Insert Graph.vi. The examples should point you in the right direction.
Good luck,

Excel Insert Graph VI

Has anyone experienced the behavior of when using the Excel Insert Graph VI multiple times for different datasets that the graph will not always appear? When I run the below code, I see this behavior with a few graphs.
Attachments:
Graph Example.vi ‏22 KB
Graph Example.vi ‏22 KB

The issue is cause by the fact that you didn't wire anything to the column and row headers inputs. If you read the help file for the Excel Insert Graph VI the following is specified:
column headers specifies the text of the column labels on the graph. Leave this parameter unwired if you want to create an XY graph.
row headers specifies the text of the row labels on the graph. Leave this parameter unwired if you want to create an XY graph.
In your case you want to create an xlLine type graph but in fact you are creating an XY graph. Just wire something to the Row Column header inputs. See attached (LV2013).
