Insert Object (create from pdf file) in wordpad fails

Problem:
I am unable to insert object (create from existing pdf file) in wordpad application.
Environment:
OS: Windows 7 Professional + SP1 (64-bit)
Acrobat X (32-bit installer)
Procedure:
Open Wordpad application, click on 'Insert Object', choose 'Create from File', Browse and Select exsting pdf file, click 'Display As Icon' and Click 'Ok'
Expexted Result:
PDF should get inserted as OLE object to wordpad
Actual Result:
Error message "Failed to create object. Make sure the application is entered in the system registry."
Addition Notes:
I noticed that while insterting PDF (OLE object) it seach for certain registry key (AutoConvertTo) which is not available hence it fails.

Yes, I am aware. But this problem appears only when I insert PDF file (which is Adobe file).
I guess this has nothing to do specifically with 'wordpad' but I referenced known application from standard offiering. It happens with any 64-bit application using 'rich-edit' control (this is Microsoft too ) and allowing user to insert OLE objects.
I guess somewhere Adobe Acrobat installation fails to create required registry entries which are being referred by 64-bit applications while inserting PDF files as OLE objects.

.webloc files being created from .pdf files viewed in Exchange 2003 webmail

I have a person here that when she views a pdf file through an exchange webmail account, it then turns into a .webloc file and is no longer useable. She is using one of the newer MacBook Air computers.
I don't have the notebook here in front of me at this time.

No updates, we have a feeling it started with a corrupt adobe file on the network. All clients that opened this one document seem to be having this error now. Does anyone know what this error means:
%%%%[ Error generating pdf file. Please retry with these features turned
off: optimize CompressObjects ]%%%%
Error 32 relocating files.
The process cannot access the file because it is being used by another
process.
How do I turn off : "optimize CompressObjects"
Thanks.

Insert Object Link to Versioned File in a SharePoint Library

I apologize in advance that I am not well versed in SharePoint and Objects.
I am trying to set up a master PPT file that uses the INSERT/OBJECT/CREATE FROM FILE/LINK function. This is where an image of the source file is displayed in the master file. When the master file is opened, the user is presented with the choice
to update links. I am not using code. Just menu options.
The master file can reside either in SharePoint or outside SharePoint. The source files will reside in a SharePoint 2010 versioned library. The most recent version should be linked.
When I try to insert the object, I don't know what path to enter. Is there a way to do this?
Thanks you.

Instead of referring from an external location, try embedding the images and keep all resources inside PPT.

How to create ICon/Cursor from pdf files

     I was able to create ICon from jpg file without problem but I couldn't create ICon from pdf files.
Here my code:
var myDoc = app.newDoc();
myDoc.importIcon("myIcon"); // it worked when I chose a jpeg image, but it didn't
//when chose a pdf file.
icon = myDoc.getIcon("myIcon");
oIcon = util.iconStreamFromIcon(icon);
myDoc.closeDoc(true);
app.addToolButton({
               cName: "myButtoon",
               oIcon: oIcon,
               cExec: "app.alert('Someone pressed me!')",
               cTooltext: "Push Me!",
               cEnable: true,
               nPos: 4
   //app.removeToolButton("myButtoon");
My goal is to create buttons which have icons from a pdf file (stamp) and when user click on these buttons, the cursors become the icon . And then, when user click on the document, the iCon will be showed in the document. The point is: is there anyway to create icons/cursors/stamps from one pdf file. Because the stamp is changeable, when user changes the color/shape of the pdf file, the icons/cursors/stamps will automatically change
What kind of pdf format do I have to use?
I used the sample "SignHere.pdf" in stamps folder of Acrobat but it didn't work.
Thanks.

The SDK has all the information - but certainly there are only samples for those common actions that users have been doing for years. Most developers don't recreate stuff already present in the application - such as the Stamp plugin - so we don't have samples of such things.
But all the pieces you need are present in the SDK - it's just necessary obvious. You will need to learn about the details of how the plugin APIs work to create the toolbars and toolbuttons, and then how to handle cursors. You will then need to learn about PDF details in order to be able to take an existing PDF, potentially modify it (eg. Change the color(s)) and then place it onto another PDF.
The methods you listed are from JavaScript - there are alternative methods for plugins, such as the AVConversion APIs.

How to create a pdf file from multiple images ?

Dear All,
I want to create a SINGLE page pdf file from two or more page size images that are combined to make a single page pdf. Again, this question is on pdfs that are made out of several, atleast two color images and a black-and-white mask for one of them.
I have such pdf files from an unknown source (the producer is edited out) whereby there are three tiff images, obtained using the well known pdfimages extractor.
When I want to make a pdf out of tiff or png or other image formats, I right click and tell Adobe Acrobat to make a pdf.
However, I dont know how I can give a command to select say, three tif images and specify which is the mask for which and then join them in a way that I get the pdf from the composite of the two color images and a mask for one of them.
Please help me out.
I am a little familiar with the pdf structure skeleton and when necessary, fixed xref tables in one of my favorite editors. A few years ago, I also wrote a bunch of javascripts to make some annotations and needed some automation and used some itext type libraries. However, I need your help in this problem as I am now rusty and forgot some of what I studied to solve my earlier problems. This is a new problem for me. Gentle hints from you would be very nice to help me in this problem. Please specify if necessary what manual and pages to read. in the pdfspec.

I would gladly mention that I am working on windows platform, preferably XP.

But adding other products, for the help of an adobe products user,
even if it outside adobe, shall add greater prestige to your company
and give impression of user-centeredness.

Well, just add the few pdf stanzas since you are proficient on it and
I am presently a little rusty as I mentioned. Just asking a little
extra yard, not even to go an extra mile.

Well, ascii format or uncompressed format that is human readable. I
know its a binary file, but human readable ascii version of it.
I hope you can give me some stanza and various other approaches
possible so I can select or combine things for myself. I see only a
miniscule number of posts claiming to have written masks in this forum
and then with no details.

Using Acrobat X and creating a PDF File from EXCEL 2010, I notice that the Pagination restarts at 1 for each Worksheet included in the PDF.

I use Acrobat X Standard and created a PDF file from two or more worksheets using EXCEL 2010.
The resulting PDF file restarts the PAGE # (In header/footer settings of Excel) at 1 for each worksheet.
However, a colleague of mine who has Acrobat X Pro version, using EXCEL 2010 and same exact file does the same task, he gets a file that starts at page 1 and second worksheet continues the page # from the last page of the First worksheet.
We both are using the ACROBAT menu (not the print to Adobe printer) to create the file so that we can get Bookmarks included in the resulting file for each worksheet.
We cannot figure out any option in Acrobat's preferences that controls the pagination on either of these versions of Acrobat.
So is this just a feature that works one way in Standard version and another way in the Pro version, and the user has no control over it?

This is so sad. I read your comments and I said, "Huh?" Haha!
I tried the indexed color option and it did make the final file smaller. Around 600KB. But there's probably another way to make it even smaller like the gazillion-paged pdf file that I mentioned that was only about 300KB.
And by saying a layout program, does that mean like Adobe InDesign? Does that mean that I should just make my graphics in Photoshop and then import using another program and finish the file there?
What other layout programs can I use?
Thank you so much!

I have pdf file with 500 pages created from AutoCad file. In all pages, I have different document numbers.The file is not editable in pdf. How to change all the document numbers using "Comment" feature? Any alternate method? alternate method? I have Adobe Acrobat X Pro and Windows -7 platform.

Yes, I just want to cover up all the pages for those particular area of document numbers.
Nothing sensitive about it. I just want to show the correct document numbers on all pages in print out.
So, I wanted to cover up by comments, but commenting on each page will be difficult. So, I wanted to comment the same on all pages.

Only InDesign can do this. You may want to look at InDesign automation.

Export to PDF - Can a single report (rpt file) create multiple PDF files using the export command?

Post Author: markeyjd2
CA Forum: Exporting
Greetings forum members,
My question is, in its entirety: Can a single report (rpt file) create multiple PDF files using the export command, ideally one PDF file per DB record?
In my case; I have a Crystal Report that reads data from a DB table containing ~ 500 records. When I export the report to a PDF file, I get one PDF file, with ~ 500 pages.
What I would like to do is export the report to ~ 500 individual PDF files; One file per DB record. The file names would be based on the table's primary key.
Is this possible?

Post Author: Micha
CA Forum: Exporting
Hi,
you need some lines of code, but its easy. Dependend on how to start the generation of your 500 PDFs, you can write an ASP page and start it via Web Browser, or a Windows Script and start it via scheduled job...
Here's an abstract of the ASP code I use:
First, you create a recordset (here: "rsc") which gives you the list of ID fields you want to export, then you create CrystalRuntime.Application object, then you loop through the recordset, open your report (here: "oRpt") and set login info. Then set the selectionformula, so that the report displays only the data of the current ID, e.g.:
oRpt.RecordSelectionFormula = "(" & oRpt.RecordSelectionFormula & ") AND {myTab.myVal}=" & rsc("myVal")
Then you export the report, move to the next record in recordset, and repeat the loop until recordset.EOF. Then you close recordset and connection.

Need to create a pdf file programmatically

Hi friends,
I am able to read contents of a pdf file in KM repository programmatically. Now I am trying to create a pdf file programmatically. I ve tried the following solutions:
1) pdfwriter. Here i endup with giving the path for the file.I ve tried giving RID and URL of the document. but in vein.
2) createresource. Here i am able to create a txt file. but couldnt find how to create pdf.
Awaiting replies specific to the questions. thanks in advance.
Regards,
Saravanan

Hi Saravanan,
In my view,the solution for this is to create a pdf file in C or any drive of the sever temporarily and get the FileInputstream from that temporary file and with the file stream upload pdf file in to KM repository and finally delete the temporary file u have created.
Follow the code given,it will be more clear
//Creating PDF
Rectangle pageSize = new Rectangle(0,0,2382,3369);
Document document = new Document(pageSize);
try {
PdfWriter.getInstance(document, new FileOutputStream("D:\PDFfromJava.pdf"));
document.open();
document.add(new Paragraph("Hi, this is demo PDF file from JAVA!"));
catch(DocumentException de) {
response.write("Document Exception");
}catch(IOException ioe) {
response.write("IO Exception");
ResourceContext rContext=null;
ICollection aCollection=null;
IResource aResource=null;
InputStream myIS=null;
IUser loggedOnUser = (IUser) request.getUser().getUser(); if (loggedOnUser.isAuthenticated()) {
rContext = new ResourceContext(loggedOnUser);
RID aRid = RID.getRID("/documents"); // remember that the repository is case sensitive
try {
IResourceFactory aResourceFactory = ResourceFactory.getInstance();
aCollection = (ICollection) aResourceFactory.getResource(aRid, rContext);
//Creating a File object
File myPDF=new File("D:\PDFfromJava.pdf");
//Getting the stream from temp file
myIS=new FileInputStream(myPDF);
IContent aContent = new Content(myIS,"byte",-1);
if (aCollection != null)
aResource = aCollection.createResource("PDFfromJava.pdf", null, aContent);
myIS.close();
//deleting the temp file from server
myPDF.delete();
}catch(Exception e){
response.write("Exce"+e);
One more thing the file name PDFfromJava.pdf mentioned in bold should be same at all places
