Inserting code into head of document

Hi all,
It seems that devforums.macromedia.com no longer exists or at
least I can't connect to it. I have built some easy commands that
insert code blocks before and made them into extensions but this
time I am going to need to write code into the head of the document
much like doing the "jumpMenu" would. I cannot find the command
that will do this and I have even tried to pick apart the
javascript and find where it does this for the actual "jumpMenu" to
see how it is done but cant.
Can anyone point me to a good resource or tell me the
functions that can do this? Thanks in advance.
Buddy

Hi,
sorry to bother you guys after such a long time but i've been looking for the right way to do this for a long time! I'm developing an extension that writes a css style to the head of users page. How exactly would I do this (I write the style into a variable first right?!) and than where goes my variable in your example code? and why does that code have to be placed into the applyCommand() function?
Thanks a lot, appreciate the help!

Inserting code into pages?

I have snippets of code, like for stat trackers and skype icons, and I can't figure out how to insert the code into pages without having to first export it into html, view source, import the source into NVU and then save it again. This is a big hassle to go through whenever I change the page, and I am wondering if there is a way to put the code directly into the pages document itself. Appreciate any answers.

Copy and paste definitely does not work... Here is the code:

<script type="text/javascript" language="javascript">
var sc_project=1382179;
var sc_invisible=0;
var sc_partition=12;
var sc_security="3cd1b24a";
</script>
<script type="text/javascript" language="javascript" src="http://www.statcounter.com/counter/counter.js"></script><noscript> </noscript>

Is there any way to make this into an image without losing any of its properties (I have found ways to make this into an image, but it loses all the code behind it and becomes a "dumb" image).

Inserting Filename into Header/Footer

Hi everyone,
I'm looking for a way to enter the filename (without the file extension) into the header of my document. From the research I've been doing it seems the only way to do this would be to write some sort of javascript, or pay for a 3rd party plug-in with a ton of features I'll never need or use. You would think Adobe would have made this pretty simple to do, it seems I've seen a lot of people asking for it for various reasons.
Is there a simple way to do it? Or am I totally out of luck. I was hoping to be able to do it for batch processing, but I think my options are limited, as it seems the only way might be to write a javascript and insert that into the batch processing process.
Thanks.

Yeah I'm looking for a way to do it in batch automaticaly. I could do it manually but I have potentialy thousands of documents.
I don't know how to write javascript so would there be an easy way of creating a script?

How do I insert checkboxes into a Pages document?

I have been trying to insert checkboxes into a document I created using Pages version 2.4.2 on my iPad Air. I would like an actual checkbox (not just the image of an empty box) so that a checkmark will appear once it has been selected. I am able to do this with the "Numbers" app, but I cannot copy and paste those check boxes to a Pages document.
I want to use this document as a form I can easily access and print with checkboxes. I have only found a way to insert bullets, but not checkboxes that you can click on with your finger and a check mark appears in the checkbox.
Thank you!

I think you are misunderstanding "Insert text at cursor". The ANNOTATIONS are not text editing tools, rather they are tools for people making comments to "mark up" documents. You use "Insert text at cursor" to tell the document author you want HIM OR HER to insert text at that point; the author reviews all the comments and changes the original.
You need to use one of the OTHER methods mentioned to actually add text. Probably simplest is the typewriter tool, which in Acrobat X is under TOOLS > CONTENT and is called ADD OR EDIT TEXT BOX.

Inserting PI into generated XML document

Can anyone tell me how to insert processing instructions into an XML document generated using the xmlcg generated classes? I understand that I can create a PI using the Document::createProcessingInstruction() method but how do I add it as a sibling to the root element? Any insight in this regard will be really appreciated.

Your question is not very clear.
Do you want to know How to insert an element into an XML document?
Answer: I can see you already know how to do it. You have added the element using addContent()
or do you want to know How to display the XML in a tidy format?
Answer: to view the XML in a properly formatted style you can you the Format class. A very basic way of viewing the XML would be:
   * Prints the Document to the specified file.
   * @param doc
   * @param filename
   * @param formatting
public static void printDocToFile(Document doc, String strFileName,
      boolean formatting)
    XMLOutputter xmlOut = null;
    if (!formatting)
      xmlOut = new XMLOutputter();
    } else
      Format prettyFormat = Format.getPrettyFormat();
      prettyFormat.setOmitEncoding(false);
      prettyFormat.setOmitDeclaration(false);
      xmlOut = new XMLOutputter(prettyFormat);
    try
      if (doc != null)
        FileWriter writer = new java.io.FileWriter(strFileName, true);
        xmlOut.output(doc, writer);
        writer.flush();
        writer.close();
      } else
        System.out.println("Document is null.");
    catch (Exception ex)
      System.out.println(ex);
}

Inserting text into a Pages document with Applescript

I want to create a Pages document from a custom template but be able to insert text at various points in the document (inputted data under headings etc). I would like to use Applescript but cannot get insertion points to work, is this possible? As usual, all help gratefully accepted.

I have made a Pages template that contains tables and I want to enter text into sections of these tables
That's a completely different story! But that's still possible using GUI Scripting. Here's an example:
tell application "Pages"
    activate
    select table 1 of body text of front document
    tell application "System Events" to tell process "Pages"
        set theWindow to window 1 whose role description is "standard window"
        click button "Table" of tool bar 1 of theWindow
        keystroke "Cell A1"
        keystroke tab
        keystroke "Cell B1"
        key code 125 -- down arrow
        keystroke "Cell B2"
        -- and so on
    end tell
    select insertion point after table 1 of body text of front document
end tell

Inserting images into header

In the previous version of Pages, I could have an image in the header.
This can be important because it can serve as a kind of letterhead fucntion.
It appears that in the new version of Pages that I have just downloaded, it is no longer possible.
This is very disappointing. Surely people must want to have images in headers loads and loads of times. How come such a simple, expected function has been removed?

Same problem here. Totally screwed up my letterhead. I may have found a "fix," though. I happened to have the image that I was using in the header saved as a separate PDF, but I think it should work for image files. I opened the image in Preview, copied it, then pasted it into the body of the document. Then I resized it and dragged it up to the header and it landed there with no problem. I found, however, that once I dropped the image into the header it couldn't be moved. It appears that you have one shot to get it right (otherwise you'll have to undo and try again). In other words, I couldn't resize it easily once it was in the header. It took some trial and error, but I got it to work. But it really shouldn't be this difficult and we shouldn't have to be finding work-arounds for things that should be as simple as this.

Programmtically insert text into header of panelWindow?

Hi Experts,
Is it possible to replace the content of a panelWindow's header with anything other than another image?
for example with html-formatted text?
I'm creating a M$-Ribbon like widget and trying to use panelWindows as the backbone for the menu-bar popup.
The header contains the title of each sub-menu-bar, hence my question... (btw, if anyone has a better way of doing
this - do suggest :)
many thanks in advance,
p.s.: I could just get rid of the header all together and just add panels in a row but then I'd lose the close-button
functionality...

Can't find some albums when trying to insert photos into other programs

I am having trouble finding albums (and thus pictures) when trying to insert photos into a Word document or upload to mySpace/ facebook etc.
After choosing 'insert<picture<from file<pictures<iPhoto Library' , I have the option of looking into the year-month-date or by album. Since I have a better memory of the 50+ albums I have created rather than their dates, I choose "Albums". This list only contains about half of my albums (with folder icons) and it appears outdated...ie one of the albums no longer exists in iPhoto and has been changed to a folders with several albums in it.
I'm wondering why this is happening or how i can update the album list. I realize i could use the year-month-day thing but that is too frustrating.

Hi chantreya,
iPhoto 5 now stores the Album information in a data xml file. The Albums folder within the iPhoto Library folder is no longer used. At some point, usually after a rebuild, you will no longer have that folder in the Finder.
If you need to access photos from an album it is very difficult for a third party application to navigate the iPhoto Library in order to find the photo you need. You will have to know the date of import in order to find the photo.
There are some third party applications that can read the xml file and can navigate the iPhoto library and show you the Albums. Hopefully more applications will be revised to read this file.
Until then you will have to Share/Export the photos to the desktop. You can then navigate to the desktop to use the photos (example: web uploading from online photo site)
If your application supports drag and drop, you can drag the photo from an open iPhoto Library window into your application.
For email you can also use the email icon within iPhoto to open a message with the highlighted photo attached.
You can also use spotlight to find images in an Album...
This is what I have done using Spotlight to find my images that are in iPhoto albums without opening iPhoto..
In iPhoto, select the album, then select all, go to Photos/batch change.
Change the comments to text. In the text field I put the name of the Album.
Do this for each album.
Close iPhoto.
Open Spotlight and put in the name of the Album ( you have to remember the names of the albums or have then written down)
In the spotlight search results. click on "show all"
Under "Images" click on the "xx more" to show all the images in the album.
Make sure you have it in icon view, the icon view box is the last one on the blue images line.
Now you can control click on the image to "reveal in finder", open in iPhoto or Mail, etc.
I am not sure if this is going to make you happy and it is a little more work, but you can find images in albums and even view them in a slideshow (by clicking the play arrow at the end of the Images highlighted blue line) using Spotlight, all without opening iPhoto.
One important thing to know is you can set up a graphic program to be an external editor (when you double click an image in the library} such as PhotoShop or PS Elements. You set up that within iPhoto Preferences. Just make sure you save the image flattened and with the same name. The edits will then be relected in iPhoto when you hit "save".

How can I copy an image/picture from the internet into a word document

I am trying to copy and paste an image or picture from the internet and insert it into a word document. I select and copy the image from the internet page. I then go to the word document and select past special. When I select 'paste special' it only allows text to be copied and no images or pictures. If I also try to drag the image and place it in the word document. It does not allow me to do so. Any suggestions to fix this issue?

Considering this is a MS Word issue I'd recommend reposting to that forum. You can find one at:

Help with jquery code into iweb

Hello,
I am new to inserting code into iweb and was wondering if it was possible to use code such as the jquery plugins into an iweb html snippet? i would like to create a simple image gallery such as the following link:
http://malsup.com/jquery/cycle/lite/
interested in the click transitions (fade in out), but instead of using the prev / next as the click triggers if it was possible to use "+" and signs
i appreciate any help you guys may provide,
grodr

Yes, you can use JavaScript in the HTML Snippet. But it requires knowledge of HTML/CSS/JavaScript and how iWeb works.
Anything you paste in the HTML Snippet is your responsibility. iWeb does not care whether it works or not. It happily publishes the stuff you paste.
Read this article : [Using the iWeb HTML Snippet|http://www.wyodor.net/blog/archives/2009/07/entry_213.html]
Follow the link in the article and read this sentence very very carefully:
*Publish the page on the server and test it. Make sure it works. And test it again. And again. And again. No excuse.*
And this : [How to display a remote picture in your iWeb page|http://www.wyodor.net/Tutorials/ImageWidget/ImageWidget.html]
This pages uses it in the two slideshows :
http://www.wyodor.net/_Demo/MyHouse/Huis.html
And here it is explained how to create such slideshow :

Inserting images into Word from Photo

I want to insert photos into a Word Document. In the past, I would choose Insert>photo from Word, and iPhoto images were available. Now with Yosemite 10.10.3, iPhoto has been replaced by Photo. iPhoto images are not available when choosing Insert from Word. Suggestions appreciated.

Neither iPhoto nor Photo appears available for inserting pictures into MS Word nor MS Powerpoint. Is the problem with Photo?
Thanks

Inserting pages before pg 1, document then opens to old page 1 (XI Pro)

Dear Support Team,
I am baffled. I use Adobe Acrobat XI Pro 11.0.2. Here is the scenario that is driving me crazy:
I open a multi-page pdf document (titled Report).
I then view the thumbnails of that document.
I find another pdf document (titled Charts) and drag it unopened from my desktop and place it before the thumbnail of the first page of my opened document (Reports).
All seems well, all pages of the Charts pdf were inserted before the first page of the Reports pdf and are showing correctly in thumbnail view.
However, if I close the pdf and reopen it, it will automatically open to the old first page (what used to be the first page of Reports), let's say page 5.
So, I have to go to the file properties and change the "open to page 5" and make it say "open to page 1"
This happens every time I insert a pdf document or even just a pdf page from another document before page 1 in my open document.
It's like Acrobat keeps making the document open to the old page 1 no matter how many pages I insert before the old page 1.
I just want to insert pages and have it open to the new page 1 without having to go to the file properties menu every time.
Can anyone help me?

Hello,
Thanks for your time. My acrobat preferences were already set to disable the restore last view settings, so that didn't work.
I've done a bunch of testing since you responded and have discovered that this issue only happens when I insert pages into a pdf document created by our office scanner (Konica Minolta bizhub C452). When I scan a document, it creates a pdf. If I then take that pdf and try to insert another document or page before page 1, the document properties immediately change to "open to page 5" or whatever the original page 1 used to be.
I'm not sure what's going on here. I tried copying the scanned pdf to a different location/drive, and still no luck. This is a bummer because we work with scanned documents so often and frequently need to insert and rearrange pages. For now, whenever I insert pages before page 1, I promptly go to the document properties and change the "open to page" to page 1. Very annoying.

Inserting File into Word Document

Using Powershell, I'm trying to embed a zip file into a Word Document so that the embedded file is displayed as an icon.
So far, I have only been able to insert the verbiage of a text file using the following code...
$objWord = New-Object -comobject Word.Application
$objWord.Visible = $False
$objDoc = $objWord.Documents.Open('c:\test\example.doc')
$selection = $objWord.Selection
$objRange = $objDoc.Bookmarks.Item("txtInsertFile").Range
$objdoc.bookmarks.add("newBookmark",$objRange)
$bookmark = $objdoc.Bookmarks._NewEnum | ?{$_.Name -eq "newBookmark"}
$bookmark.Range.InsertFile("C:\test\text.txt")
Possibly I shouldn't be using InsertFile? Is there another option?
Thanks so much for your help!

Hi LittleMissMagic,
Since we have not heard from you for a while, I assume that this issue is solved.
I will mark a reply as an answer, please feel free to unmark it if the reply is not helpful.
We are looking forward to hearing from you.
