IRWSettings interface in Adobe 3D Reviewer

Hi All,
Pardon the newbie question. I am using IAC and Visual Basic to open a CAD file and export a PDF with a template.
So far I have been able to open the CAD file but I cannot access the options dialog to export the PDF.
The IRWSettings interface seems to have all the methods I would need e.g. SetWritePDFTemplateFile.
Public Interface IRWSettings Member of Adobe3DReviewer
Sub SetWritePDFTemplateFile(ByVal bstrTemplateFile As String) Member of Adobe3DReviewer.IRWSettings
Please advise how I can get access to the methods in the IRWSettings interface
Thanks and Best Regards,
Roy

You are correct, there are no tools in 3D Reviewer to reduce mesh size except for the compression option available for both PRC and U3D when exporting to PDF.
To export to PDF from 3D Reviewer and use the compression option, please follow these steps:
1) open your model in 3D Reviewer
2) go to File>Export
3) choose PDF for the file type
4) click on Options (lower left corner)
5) ckick on Options (again)
6) select PRC Tessellation for the Format
7) check the box Compress Tessellation
8) uncheck the other box
9) click OK
10) click OK (again)
11) click Save
Hope this helps

How to write attributes to a .stp file in Adobe 3D Reviewer?

Hello All,
I am trying to import a .stp file into Adobe 3D Reviewer and I need to write attributes to this file. I am using VB (.NET 4.0) for this purpose.
I imported the Adobe 3D Reviewer Object Library reference and am trying to make use of the AddAttribute method of the GeomItem class to write the attributes. However, I am unable to instantiate the GeomItem class. I get this error : 'Adobe3DReviewer.GeomItemClass.Friend Sub New()' is not accessible in this context because it is 'Friend'. I am not sure how else can I access this class? Also, in the object browser GeomItem shows up as a class but in Intellisense it shows up as an interface.
Can anyone shed some light on how to resolve this error or make use of any other method to write the attributes and their values in the Adobe 3D Reviewer? Also, if anyone can point to some documentation related to this stuff it would be great!
Thanks in advance.

Acrobat 9 Pro Extended and Adobe 3D Reviewer

Good day, I just try to download the trial of Acrobat 9 Extended and try to use the new Adobe 3d Reviewer on this computer but after I try 4 time I still never get any success. On another computer he installation process went all ok without problem, on this computer I install all the packages and execute Acrobat Pro and Acrobat Distiller and work, the only things not woking (not even start up) it's the 3d Revieer, what can I try to solve the problem ? Thx in advance and hope in answer that can help me,
Best regards

If I start another trial on another computer in my lan then I can't ? Because Acrobat Extended and Distiller work great but Reviewer 3d never start at all.

Date format convert error in XML interface based Adobe interactive forms

Hi experts,
I am using XML interface based Adobe interactive form in Web Dynpro ABAP. The form just contains some date fields and numeric fields.
When I test the WD Application, the date fields appear like 0000-00-00 at the first time. And then I set the form input disable, and get the XML from the form, at the same time I get the warning message, 'date format convert error'. By the way, I have set the edit pattern, display pattern and data pattern of the date field to YYYYMMDD, but there seems no effect.
Could you tell me how to set the default date format in date field Or clear the 0000-00-00?
And another question, all of the numeric fields in the form appear like 0.0, how can I set it to empty when the form initialize?
Best Regards,
Guo Guo Qing

Hi Chintan,
Thank you for your reply.
I have tried every possible changes on the Date field, locale, pattern. But still no effect. When the PDF come up in the WDA program, the date field is still '0000-00-00', and then I export the XML date of the form, there is also '0000-00-00' in the interface field.
I can't clear the '0000-00-00' in initializiation event using javascript because if I need to open the form again, if I do this, the value user input could be cleared.
I also try using Javascrip like this
if this.rawValue == "0000-00-00"
{ this.rawValue = ""; }
The code above can't clear the initializiation zeros too.
Have you used the XML interface based online Adobe Forms? I have used XML PDF forms for output before, that's perfect. But the input forms seems so strange.
Best Regards,
Guo Guo Qing

Chrome as default browser and Adobe Shared Review

Below is a comment from one of my SMEs who is involved in one of my Adobe Shared Reviews.
SME Comment: I am about 1/3 done. I have Google Chrome as my default browser. Clicking on the link brings up the document in the browser. You have to select "open as pdf" to get the commenting tool bars. I am using adobe reader 11 and it fails frequently. If you use this, make sure you publish your comments frequently, because you lose everything when it fails.
Does anyone have any suggestions as to why Chrome causes issues versus IExplorer. This is the first I have had this type of comment returned to me from one of my reviewers.
Regards,

Personally, I'd monitor to see what the application sets when applying the browser as your default on any other machine. Then check to see if it's getting set correctly on login. If it's not, force these to carry over using a UEM, Package, GPO, Script or
whatever you have at your disposal.
There may be a policy which blocks users from changing default progams.

Adobe Captivate Reviewer - won't load .crev file in Vista

Using Reviewer for the first time (Captivate 4 on Vista box).
Downloaded Reviewer from email link
Clicked on .crev file from email link
In the Reviewer, got message "Unable to load SWF file. Try opening Adobe Captivate Reviewer in the Administrator mode" (see pic)
Clicked OK
Clicked the .crev file in email link again per message "Load Adobe Captivate Movie (.crev, .swf., or .zip)"
Got same "unable to load.... " message again (see pic). Viscious circle here
Downloaded Reviewer to my XP machine - all works like it should.
What do I need to do to my Vista box (primary machine) for the Reviewer to work?
SMILES
Susann

This issue arises because, for some reason, the adobe developer(s) have hard coded a temporary file location of "C:\Program Files\Common Files\Adobe\Adobe Captivate Reviewer <X>*\workspace" to store the .crev, .swf or .zip file when you open it from its original location. In most corporate environments "\Program Files\ or \Program Files (x86)\" is, correctly, restricted to non-administrative users to ensure the integrity of managed applications and the industry standards for temporary storage have been long established as \temp\, \windows\temp\ or <user profile>\appdata\temp\
The corporate workaround to your issue is relatively simple. Your user account needs to be granted the privilege to be able to create and own the workspace folder in the above location. If this is not feasible then you could always just copy the entire contents of "C:\ProgramFiles\CommonFiles\Adobe\Adobe Captivate Reviewer <X>*" to a location on your machine where you have full access, i.e. your desktop.
Ultimately Adobe development need to update the code in Adobe Air.dll to create the workspace in a temporary folder that conforms to industry standards

Adobe Captivate 8 Send For Shared Review link to Adobe Captivate Reviewer provides no download for Captivate 8

In Adobe Captivate 8 if you use the feature "Send for Shared Review" and select the option "Send Email" and "Attach Adobe Captivate Reviewer" the end result is a link generated in the email to download Adobe Captivate Reviewer (doesn't attach it as indicated).
As noted in the email Adobe Captivate 8 Reviewer is REQUIRED to review the file. No big deal there is a link to it in the email : the download link - http://www.adobe.com/go/cp8.0_reviewerapp
Unfortunately that link redirects to another page http://blogs.adobe.com/captivate/captivate-6-review-app and on that page there is no Adobe Captivate 8 Reviewer link to download. *screenshot of the page below*
Anyone know the correct link location to download Adobe Captivate 8 Reviewer?
I am still searching but so far have been unable to find it.
Thank you in advance to anyone that can help.

When sharing the link for people to review use the same link http://www.adobe.com/go/cp8.0_reviewerapp but just give instructions to use the one specified for 7.0 (mac or windows).
Sorry to ask again but want to make sure before I send this out to people.
Thank you.

Multiple reviewers cannot open CREV files in Adobe Captivate Reviewer 1.0 after the first review

We are using Captivate 4.0 with Captivate Reviewer 1.0 for review and comments. The problem we are having just started within the last month...
We place the CREV file and folder on the network so that multiple reviewers can access. All have Adobe Captivate Reviewer 1.0 installed.
When the first person opens the CREV file, they are told that the folder is already in use, and that they must create another.
Once a new folder is created a user may open the CREV file and make comments and save them. However, subsequent reviewers cannot open the CREV file to add their comments. Subsequent reviewes must create anothe folder and then they can open and review the file and add comments.
However, because the CREV file is now saving comments in a different folder, reviewers cannot see each others comments. The last module we did where everthing worked correctly and multiple reviewers could open and comment the same file without any issues was about one month ago on 07/29. We have no idea if something has changed since then that would render Captivate Reviewer 1.0 inoperable, but we'd like to see if anyone else has seen and/or resolved this issue...
Thanks,
James

No, I've had WIndows 7 since it was released through MSDN. Adobe Captivate 4, released in January 2009, was the most recent version of Captivate available when Windows 7 was released to MSDN and Technet subscribers in August 2009. Captivate 5 was not released until May 2010, almost 9 months after Windows 7 was released to the public.
Captivate 4 has a message at startup mentioning that one should run it as administrator, which is a Windows 7 feature involving User Account Control. We bought it sometime after Windows 7 was released but before Captivate 5 was released, otherwise we would have bought Captivate 5.
Captivate 4 has worked for us on Windows Server 2008, Windows 7, Windows Vista, and Windows XP. For it to work on Windows Vista and up, we had to make sure a particular update was applied.
The problem is that it works when it feels like it, and the rest of the time it just freezes at startup. Deleting the app data folder seemed to help, so perhaps it had issues with state corruption. These issues have plagued this application from day 1 on every OS we've used it on.

Adobe Captivate Reviewer 2.0 not installed with Captivate 5

Hello everyone,
I was wondering if someone could direct me to a location where I might be able to download Captivate Reviewer 2.0. I noticed my system added this program when I purchased the Captivate 5 upgrade, however, it does not boot up.

Hi,
If you have installed Captivate 5 successfully, 'Adobe Captivate Reviewer 2.0' should be present in the 'Program Files' folder.
Please look for following folder and run the EXE file.
<C/D: drive>\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Captivate Reviewer 2.0\

Adobe 3D Reviewer: No "reduce model" function like in 3D Toolkit?

I'm using Adobe 3D Reviewer to prepare 3D models. I'm trying to reduce the file size of a gigantic 3D model. But it appears that Adobe 3D Reviewer does not have the "reduce model" function that was available in Acrobat 3D Toolkit to reduce mesh size.
Any thoughts or tips?
Thanks!

Where do I download "Adobe 3D Reviewer"

I was told that I need "Adobe 3D Reviewer" in order to view AutoCad files.
However I can not find this program anywhere.
I was also told that this is a freeware.
Does any one know if this is still on the market or it does not exist anymore?

It's part of Acrobat Pro Extended: http://help.adobe.com/en_US/Acrobat/9.0/3D/WS58a04a822e3e50102bd615109794195ff-7c13.w.html

Poor interface with Adobe CS4 and setting the file size for emails

In frustrations over an unfixed bug in iPhoto (slide shows) in addition to too many limitations, I am trying out Aperture. So far it has been a big disappointment. I like Photoshop (CS4) with layers etc. as well as Adobe Camera Raw, both of which I intend to continue using. The workflow in Aperture appears disappointing (Photoshop) and totally absent (Adobe Camera Raw). It seems like Apple's attempt to capture some of Adobe's market share has has happened on the consumer's expense? Besides disappointing functionality, I have run into a surprising problem: No matter how I set the email photo export preset in preferences, the attachment shows up as a large file when exported to Entourage. The size does not change no matter how I set this preference.
My 21 years of loyalty and enthusiasm towards Apple has taken some heavy blows lately. With some 15000 photos and 35+ albums in iPhoto, I don't see too many alternatives. Can someone tell me if there is a way around these problems.

First of all I am not comparing Aperture to Photoshop by expecting the layers function. It is the interface between the two I am questioning. We obviously also have different expectations to Aperture. Mine are solely based on my experiences with iPhoto and what Apple tells me on their website:" Aperture 3 is a professional photography application that lets you refine images, showcase your photography, and manage massive photo libraries. Aperture 3 gives you all the easy-to-use tools you need to import, organize, compare, enhance, and share your photos." I do not find a single sentence stating that it is primarily a "Raw image editor processor" as you are defining it. I was not looking for a new raw editor. I was, however, based on Apple's claims above, expecting a combined advanced editing an photo library application. As such I also expected layers. That is not comparing it to Photoshop. Naturally our views are based on expectations and experiences, and ours are just different, that is all.

Adobe Shared Review Doesn't Recognize Outlook 2010 as Default Email Program

We just received new laptops from our company with Windows 7 on them and Acrobat 9.4.0. Previously, we were using Windows XP with Acrobat 8.3.2 and didn't have the following issue.
When I begin a shared review and get to the Add Email dialog, I click To: and Acrobat pops up an error that Outlook is not the default email program. Fact is, though, it is the default email program. I checked under Default Programs and made sure Microsoft Outlook was set.
Needless to say, this completely prohibits us from using Shared Review. There is no way around this that I can see (I tried just typing in email addresses but then it tells me it can't send it because I don't have an email client).
Outlook opens fine via email links from my browsers (IE and FF), other documents, etc. The IE default email is set to Outlook as well (not sure that makes a difference).
My fear is that this is a result of Windows 7 'not being fully supported by Adobe until an undisclosed release'. Please tell me I am wrong and there is a setting I am missing.
I am inserting an image of the error.

There have been other messages concerning compatibility issues with MS Office 2010
Since Outlook is part of Office, I will guess that is your problem

Issue with using Adobe Captivate Review 2.0 software

I have a file that is about 102Meg published that I am sending out for review. I am posting it to location that everyone has access to on our network. The issue I am having is kind of odd. If you install the Captivate Review software on a new machine you can review the .crev file add comments and save just fine. If you close the programm you can not get the software to open the file again. If you go to a different machine and install the software you can review the file again. We are running 32bit Windows XP with duo cpu @ 2.66Ghz and 4 Gigs of Ram on our engineering computers. If we publish a small file size it does not seem to be an issus. Has anyone else run into this issue?

No, but I would really appreciate it if you could report this to the Adobe Captivate team using the web address I have included below.
