Is it bad to have 1 text tag per page, 508 standards?
Hello,
Just wondering if it's required or extreme "best practice" per 508 accessibility standards to break up a page of text into multiple text block tags? I've converted a Word 2007 doc to Adobe PDF and am editing in Acrobat 9 Pro. Most of my pages that are all text are auto-tagged as one or two single blocks under the "order" tab in the order panel, despite breaks in paragraph, headers, footnotes, etc. Although these headers, footnotes are identified as such under the "tags" panel of the order panel.
I think this is okay, but wanted to double-check whether I should be splitting up blocks of text according to paragraphs (so each page would have up to 5 ordered tags rather than just one or two)
Thanks!
Success, for PDFs, with Section 508 is driven by having a Tagged PDF that conforms to the ISO 32000-1's discussion of logical structure and tagged PDF.
http://www.adobe.com/content/dam/Adobe/en/devnet/pdf/pdfs/PDF32000_2008.pdf
For the most part this is achieved by proper content authoring with an application that has adequate tag management.
(FrameMaker, InDesign, MS Word, Open Office)
Good to keep in mind is that the use of appropriate, built-in Headings/Styles are more than passingly important while working in the authoring application.
Once you have the Tagged output PDF you work out of the Tags panel, not the Content panel.
TORU has its uses; but, again, work out of the Tags panel.
Unless the content is a simple paragraph or so, there will be an appearent logic hierarchy (Headings, sub-Headings, lists, footnotes, etc.)
Having only one element (tag) for all of this in the Tags panel (which is were the Structure Tree lives) or, for that manner having many, improperly used elements just makes the PDF less accessible | usable | compliant.
The "boxes" seen on the PDF page only provide a bird's eye view of content/content order.
Properly formed, it is the Structure Tree that establishes accessibility (usability + Section 508 compliance).
Be well...

Rows Per Page option in Pivot view.
Hi,
If our report is returning more no of rows and if it is in table view , we have and option in table edit view "Rows per page". Do we have same "Rows per page" option available in Pivot table view.Because i have a report which is returning more than 150 rows and i want only 10 rows to be displayed and then scroll.
Regards,
Som.Currently, we do not have that for Pivot tables. You can use another approach to show the pagination. I have an example here http://oraclebizint.wordpress.com/2008/01/17/oracle-bi-101332-pagination-in-pivot-tables/.

1099 Form - Misc doesn't print 2 forms per page.
The 2007A PLD form that we have prints only 1 form per page. The 1099 forms that we have for MISC have 2 'forms' per page. I have tried scaling the size of the repetitive area so 2 vendors print per page, but I am unsuccessful. How does PLD know how many vendors (1099's) to print per page?
Our organization is having this issue with the new Adobe forms that were released. The 1099 smartforms print 2 forms per page but the 1099 adobe forms are only printing 1 form per the OSS note that was just released - Note: 1949022. Is there somewhere in config that we can select to print 2 per page?
We are using IDWTCERT_US_1099MISC which will print just 1 form per page ( we also had to make some adjustments because the top gets cut off...)
form IDWTCERT_US_1099MISC1 will print 2 forms per page but it is not a new vendor that prints on the form it is a copy of the first on the page
The 1099 Interest adobe form prints 2 per page with IDWTCERT_US_1099INT - this is curious too because the smartform prints 3 forms per page
Has anyone else experienced this issue? Do you know how to resolve it?I am considering putting in a problem report.
Thank you -
Removing conditional text tags in a batch
Hi everyone, using TCS2 on Win-7 64-bit.
We have been using some conditional text tags in our writing, and now we are looking at adding a few new ones and taking a few away. Is there a way to remove a batch of conditional text tags from a whole bunch of FM documents, all at once? It is a tedious process to do it manually, doc per doc, tag per tag... wondering if there is a script, or anything like that?
Thanks,
AdrianaI believe there are a couple of utilities to manage conditional tags; you might try searching Leximation's tool list:
http://www.leximation.com
And, there could definitely be Framescript-based scripts, either generic or written customized for your requirements. Here's the FrameScript group:

I have used the "description" spot in iPhoto for in-depth additional information for photos of my ancestors. Now I am wanting to know if there is a way to print the photos along with the descriptions; either photo by photo, or maybe more than one per page, or possibly in some sort of booklet format. Thank you very much.
You can make a Book and have a photo on one side and your text description on the other.

Printing 2 pages per page - bad results
hello Adobe Forums!
I need to ask you a question. I am trying to print a PDF document 2 pages per page and I get very bad results. When I choose the automatic "2 per page" in the Print box, and first print the odd pages (horizontal orientation) and then run them through again only printing the even pages (horizontal reverse orientation) - the pages don't line up! the printer makes "mirror" margings (I'm guessing) regardless of the setting (auto-rotate pages, landscape, portrait, etc). I've even tried to print using "custom" 2x1 pages per sheet (landscaped) - which gave marginally better results, but still the pages don't line up about 2 mm on each side. this has been recreated many many times AND IN DIFFERENT PDFs, so it isn't the paper's placement or the document.
I have a front-fed HP PSC 1210 printer. it served me well for nearly 7 years. I cannot belive it's gotten the best of me though.
my PC: DELL 2.4GHz core 2 duo, 2GB RAM, 320 GB HDD, 640GB HDD, radeon 4890 1GB video, vista 32 bit, 2ms monitor, etc., etc.
p.s. moreso, when I choose the default "automatic" 2 per page and check the "print page borders" box, the front page even sticks out of the borders put there by acrobat!
*edit*
p.p.s. in print preview: composite it shows GRAYED OUT the margins of the page that the printer cannot print on. but when printing, Adobe seems to not take that into account! it seems to consider the page as the printable area screwing up the margins.Have you tried setting it to 2 pages per sheet and then saving that setting as a preset? That should do it.
Hope this helps. -
Multiple Conditional Text Tags on One section
I'm composing a document with 3 conditional text tags. There
are instances where I need to conditionalize something as Tag 1 and
Tag 2 but doesn't apply for Tag 3. Robohelp seems to allow me to
apply 2 tags to one section of text, but when I generate my .chm it
doesn't include anything that has been given two tags. Is there a
way for robohelp to support this?
Is there something I should be doing differently?
I'm using Robohelp 5X.
Thanks,Harvey,
I think you may have misunderstood me. If you apply tags A
and B to some text, and you build an exclusionary expression like
"NOT A," the text will
not appear in the output. (See rule #1 in my exclusionary
list: any text tagged with an excluded tag will be excluded, even
if other tags are applied.) If you build an inclusionary expression
like "B," the text
will appear. (See rule #1 in my inclusionary list: any text
tagged with an included tag will be included, even if other tags
are applied.)
So I don't think "include trumps exclude" in this sense. But
consider the following expressions in a 3-tag environment:
* A OR B
* NOT C
Logically, these might seem equivalent. But they aren't, and
RoboHelp doesn't treat them as equivalent. Let's assume that you've
created every possible set of tag combinations for this project: A,
B, C, A and B, A and C, B and C, all 3 tags (A, B, and C), and
untagged. Here's a look at what would be included in the output for
each build expression:
A OR B:
A
B
A and B
A and C
B and C
A, B, and C
Untagged text
NOT C:
A
B
A and B
Untagged text
When people say that RoboHelp's boolean operators "don't work
right," I think they mean that expressions that seem logically
equivalent (such as these two) produce different output. Without an
understanding of how the rules are applied, a user can easily build
expressions that seem right but produce the "wrong" output. In
fact, the output is correct according to the rules.
Again, I wouldn't say that "include trumps exclude," although
I think I understand what you're getting at. The difference lies in
the application of rule #1.
I tested a simple 3-tag environment yesterday with printed
documentation and CHM files, and the expressions worked as
indicated. I didn't try WebHelp, but I've used similar expressions
before, and I feel comfortable saying that WebHelp will also work
as I've described it. Also, note that we're dealing with very
simple expressions here; complicated expressions require more care.
But most RH users can generate the desired output with a few simple
expressions. Especially inclusionary expressions. -

when i open the .icc file it shows up like this:

I didn't get this message so far. What i did before getting this message was to open a jpeg file. I wanted to edit it so when i did right click on the file i went to open with, and colorsync came as an option; so i chose it.
Then this message started comming up.
Is there anything i can do?

FM 10 Crashing when applying conditional text tag
Hello everyone.
For some reason, FM keeps crashing when I try to apply a conditional text tag to a table (entire table). The funny thing is I have been doing this same thing for three months now with no problems before today, even have two tables in the same document with different tags applied to them and they are working fine. But when I try to add this one, I crash. I have rebooted my computer and made sure all my drivers are up to date, but now I'm at a loss. Any help?
Thanks.Yes, I can apply the tag to the pictures in the document, its only when applying to the table. I am selecting all rows in the table with the mouse and then selecting the tag, clicking the radio button "in" and then clicking the "Apply" button. It then asks "apply condition tag settings to all rows in table?" I hit "ok" and then it freezes, screen shots provided.
Pic 1: My project at table causing problems.
Pic 2: Me selecting the table and choosing to apply tag.
Pic 3: Me affirming I want to apply the condition to all rows.
Pic 4: Program stops responding. -
Book and File Conditional Text Tags Don't Match
In Framemaker 10 (TCS 3, Windows 7 64-bit), when I click on a document in a the book (& View>Show/Hide Conditional Text), an extra conditional text tag shows up that doesn't exist in the document Show/Hide Conditional Text.
For example:
In the book, My Book.book, I select Chapter1.fm (but don't open it).
Then I open the Show/Hide Conditional Text panel (View>Show/Hide Conditional Text)
I see these two condition tags, Hide Text and HideText. I use Hide Text but not HideText.Apparently, at some point I changed the name of the condition tag.
Then I open Chapter1.fm.
When I open the Show/Hide Conditional Text panel, HideText isn't there.
What I want to do is to delete HideText (the one I don't use), but I can't find ourt how to do it. any ideas out there?
One more bit of information that might help figure out what's going on:
I select Chapter1.fm in the book.
Then I select Show as per condition in the Show/hide Conditional Text panel.
Select HideText in the Hide field.
Click the left arrow (<--) to move HideText to the Show field.
Click Apply.
I get this error message in the Book Error Log:
Cannot show the following tags because they do not exist in this document
So, can anyone tell me how to get rid of HideText from the book files?
Thanks!
John N.John, some troubleshooting questions:
1. did all of the file(s) originate from FM10 or were any from previous versions? Did you import previous version content? Slight naming differences between FM versions is an insidious problem that many of us here can relate to ... If any of the files were from previous versions, I would start with testing FM10 original content itself, to see what naming convention FM10 starts with.
2. if you want to dive into the innards of your problem files, you might use the venerable MIFBrowser, a freebie from
http://www.wideman-one.com/gw/tech/framemaker/mifbrowse.htm
Although it hasn't been updated in a loooooong time, it should still work perfectly with FM10 MIF files. It's just a viewer, not an editor, but it will help you get a handle on both the conditional tags in-situ, in comparison to the tag as defined in the condition catalog section.
MIF is a bit daunting if you've never looked at it, but with MIFBrowse the various sections of content are more easily viewable.
3. With copies of your FM files safely backed up you could then edit the conditions in the.MIF files in a text editor (or by using FM itself, although this takes some special care to ensure that the file remains as text. I personally fine text editors (e.g. NotepadPlus or EmEditor) easier to use because viewing line numbers helps when trying to sync between what you see in the MIFBrowse display vs. actually edit the content.
4. It's also possible to save the .book file as .mif to then examine/edit the conditional tag catalog with a text editor. You could copy the "missing" conditional definition from one of the chapters into the .book file.

Sorry about first try : how to avoid html-text tag converting & to & amp;
subject
how to avoid html:text tag converting "&" to "& amp;"?
body
hi,
i have some values on DB like "& #351;" and when i use html:text to
show binding's value, html:text converts "&" to "& amp;". in generated
html, it looks like "& amp;#351;".
how to avoid this conversion?
thanks...
Ayhan G�ng�r
note: i use white-space among special characters because browser renders them. ex : (& amp; to &)hi, i use property attribute of html:text.
property is declared in UIModel xml file.
i mean, i don't use something like
<html:text value="data"/>i use just like
<html:text property="bindingName"/>and value is shown in generated html input tag as value.
html:text has no attribute like filter.
i think i should override html:text tag, and create a new tag that checks if value includes "& #351;" this type data. If there is, don't convert "&" to "& amp;"?
any suggestions?
thanks...

E-Recruiting: "BAdI: Specify Proposal Texts for Postings" not working
Hi all,
we are implementing E-Recruiting 6.03 and I need to use the "BAdI: Specify Proposal Texts for Postings"
to fill some fields in Job Posting creation.
Even if I created the custom implementation, it is active and the fields are not hidden, the BADI code
seems to be ignored.
I should see the pushbuttons on the UI, but nothing....
Do you know if there are other specific settings for this BADI?
Thanks in advance.
Kind regards.
Angelo
Now I've seen in the code that the following check fails:
* Read default_texts if at leat one default option exists
IF me->show_default_buttons EQ true AND
me->default_texts_read EQ false .
Ok, the problem was due to the setting "example implementation" in the properties
of the BADI implementation.
Edited by: Angelo Scarnata on Aug 8, 2008 4:16 PMHello G Raj,
the BAdI you found is only for providing standard texts in the posting maintainence. If implemented it sets text you use again and again depending on requisition attibutes so the recruiter does not have to type in everything each time.
For the publication smartform, as for any other data overview, you do not change the standard you just replace the standard example by your company one. You start by copying the standard smartform to keep the correct interface (all e-recruiting smartforms are named HRRCF*) and changing to the layout you need. Then you set the smartform in IMG under SAP E-Recruiting -> Technical Settings -> User Interfaces -> Settings for User Interfaces with Business Server Pages (BSP) -> Assign Parameters to Parameter Types.
Best Regards

I have been sent a 'word document' in which are a series of boxes about thirty lines long to insert written text. When Pages opens the document it extends these to a whole A4 page how do I get it to retain the original layout
You can't change the way Pages import .doc files.
It was never written that it reproduce exactly the original one.
From my point of view, as I refuse to give a cent to M...soft, the best way to deal with documents issued by their Office suite is to use the free libreOffice.

I am trying to use motion tracking to have text follow a section of the background.The text box follows the motion path, but the text just sits there. What am I doing wrong?
Motion basically looks at the the source footage and it's timing (in the timing section of the Inspector) when analyzing for tracking. Filters are basically ignored by the tracker. Retiming actions, like time re-mapping, or retiming behaviors that are applied before the tracker should be used by the tracker. Did you change the timing after doing the tracking? If so this would also require you to re-track the shot. Understanding that you found a workaround, describing the effects you applied would help to explain why you ran into problems.
Cheers!
