Is it possible to run an action from an acrobat javascript

I'd like to run an action created in the "Action Wizard", from a javascript.
Is it possible?
Otherwise I need a way to save a pdf from javascript, with the same settings as set up in the action (downsample images and discarding objects).
Can that be done?
Thanks,
Andreas

Thanks for confirming that actions can not be started from Acrobat javascript.
The suggestion to use preflight for optimized save has been done on a couple of questions similar to mine, but never explained in detail, so I'll just add some detail, while exploring it:
I didn't know where to find the PDFOptimizer settings for preflight in Acrobat Pro XI, but it's here:
1. Show the "Print production" pane, by checking it in the small foldout menu in the top of the right hand menu.
2. Under Print production click Preflight.
3. from the Options menu in the top right corner of the Preflight window, select Create new preflight profile.
4. Under "Fixups" you will find many of the Save optimized PDF options, such as Downsample images, and discard object.

  • Is it possible to run an application from a user or container login script?

    Is it possible to run an application from a user login script or a container login script?
    A "Force Run" application object works fine if the user's workstation is setup to auto-load "Application Window" or "Application Explorer" but in this case I'd like to run an application when someone does a manual login (ie. they right-click red "N" and choose "Novell Login...")
    Using a User Package's "Scheduled Action Policy" and the Event=Login also does not work when a user logs in manually. This type of Event seems to only apply when the user first logs into the workstation, not at a manual login.
    Thanks,

  • Is it possible to run BBC iPlayer from an iPhone4 through AirPlay to Apple TV2 please? I keep getting the message "An error occured loading this content. Please try again later"

    Is it possible to run BBC iPlayer from an iPhone4 through AirPlay to Apple TV2 please? I keep getting the message "An error occured loading this content. Please try again later"

    First, try a system reset on the iPod.  It cures many ills and it's quick, easy and harmless...
    Hold down the on/off switch and the Home button simultaneously until the screen blacks out or you see the Apple logo.  Ignore the "Slide to power off" text if it appears.  You will not lose any apps, data, music, movies, settings, etc.
    If that doesn't work, reset the Apple TV.  I'm not at mine right now and I'm talking from memory but the reset is somewhere in the Settings menu.

  • Is it possible to run Rules/Seq from SmartView while connected to Essbase?

    Is it possible to run rules/sequences from SmartView while connected to Essbase URL in 9.3.1 version?
    Current environment does not have planning and we have to run rules while connecting to Essbase.
    Using http://<<ServerName>>:9080/aps/SmartView URL.
    There seems to be no way we can do it. Referred to DBAG, Planning and SV document but not mentioned.
    Thanks in advance!

    Hi,
    If you have attached you business rules to Essbase database connection in EAS, you should see them under Calculation Options. If you attached only Planning connection, you will have to connect to Planning in Smartview to execute business rules.
    Else, you will see only calculation scripts attached to the Essbase application.
    Let me know if it helps.
    Cheers

  • Is it possible to run a report from another machine?

    Lets say you design a report on machine A that contains the CR Developer Software Package.
    Is it possible to execute the report from machine B that does not contain CR Developer Package?
    Is there tool or a command that you can run that will execute the report created in machine A?
    Thanks in advance,
    Zack H.

    Crystal Enterprise (or BOE) will run a report developed on machine A and imported to a repository on the CE/BOE machine.  Is that what you mean?  Or, I suppose anything that can run a Crystal Report given the file name could run it if the UNC path is given for the file name (assuming database connections are set up on the running machine)...

  • How do I do Photoshop batch (running an action) from Lightroom?

    Images going up on the website get watermarked.  The watermark is 3D, diagonal watermark that run across the entire image and is composed of the image content so it's just slightly visible and doesn't interfere with viewing. It gets implemented via a Photoshop action.
    In Bridge, this is trivial.  Just select the images, and tell Photoshop to batch process them, running the action that does the watermarking.
    How do I do this in Lightroom?

    I followed the above instructions and found a slightly better way.
    When I made my action, I made sure to OPEN a file PS has never open before, then I ran whatever action is within my action, then I SAVED the file (which brings up the save settings dialogue), and you choose whatever settings you want and save.  Then you create the droplet per the instructions above.  The difference is if you use save as for your PS action, it will save another copy of the file and you will have to import the files into LR again, and you would have two set of files (one set from the original LR export, one set from the save as command from the PS action).  If you just use save, it will save directly over the files LR exported, which presumable is already in your LR catelog and you wouldn't have to micro your files as much.
    However, make sure you only run this over new exported files as this is destructive and saves over the exported files.  Also, when you're creating your PS action with the save command, you will save over that file as well, so make sure you have another copy of that file.

  • Possibility of calling standard actions from a java program

    Hi ,
    I am working for a project where customer wants to have option of saving orders as draft only and later convert to order if need be. However since we do not want many drafts to reside on server there is a need to delete these at a specified time. For draft orders I am using order templates since they stay in the database without getting converted to orders. Now I do not know how to go about the deletion part.
    i need to write a program that would run on the server and which would fetch the templates (drafts) that have been created till a particular time and call the delete action of the template. Now the question is how do i call these actions from a java program where this java program will have to run on the server end (ie will be a backend process).
    Please suggest.
    Thanks
    Roopali

    hello roopali,
    you can create a separate thread that will run your
    code that will check for stale drafts and delete them.
    it is just like a session management program but here
    we will be looking over the drafts and not the session
    objects.
    now if you want the invocation of the action from another
    program, a socket program would suffice but opening ports
    will cause you network connections thru firewall.
    if you can make use of HTTP servlet as your service
    provider e.g., you can then just pass some action params
    to invoke it.
    regards

  • Is it possible to run Reader X from a CD?

    Hello-
    We are looking for Reader X to run from a CD. Currently, we have version 7 to run from our CDs.
    Background info:
    Our company scans legal documents, convert pages into pdf files and we put those files on CDs.
    Once the customer inserts the CD in to their computer, an auto-start menu appears.
    The menu gives you the option to view the files using your installed acrobat software or
    view files from acrobat reader 7 that is already on the CD. We are looking to upgrade our Reader 7 software
    that is currently on our CDs to Reader X. Is this possible? Thanks!

    Adobe does not provide nor support "portable" versions of its software in any form. There may be downloads elsewhere on the Web claiming to offer this feature, but we strongly discourage anyone from downloading Adobe software from any unauthorized source, as they are often used as mechanisms to distribute malware.

  • Is it possible to run AnyConnect VPN from an XP Virtual Machine

    I am trying to setup my ASA firewall to accept AnyConnect VPN connections from an XP client running in VMware ESXi 5.1.
    Does anyone know if this is even possible?
    If this helps any - from an internal XP Virtual Machine, I can run ASDM to manage the firewall.
    ASA IOS 9.2(2)
    ASDM 7.2(2)
    In my physical environment:
    I have proven my VPN setup is functional between the ASA and physical XP laptop.
    The physical laptop running XP can make a successful AnyConnect VPN connection to the ASA. This VPN session works as expected as I can access the LAN and all servers on the inside LAN of the ASA once the VPN session is established.
    Thank you

  • Possible to run web applications from cd?

    Hi, I currently have a web application which needs is required for a demo in a location where internet connection does not exist. Is that possible for me to put jvm, tomcat and my web app into a cd, and run the cd as a server? Then I can use IE to do the demo. I know it is all read only, but my app does not need to write to disk.
    Thanks.

    Your webapp might not write to disk, but what about the application server?
    At the very least your Java runtime will need to be installed at the computer you run the app on, and most likely the appserver as well (depending on the appserver, some are zero-installation).
    It may well use disk to cache session information (for example).
    You can try of course. Make the disk and try using it on one of your own machines before going to the customer.
    Might be better to take a laptop and install the whole thing on there...

  • Is it Possible to Run SQL Script from Java prog

    Hello
    Is there any API by which we can run SQl Script file ,
    Just by giving database configration parameters and SQL Script file Path ,it will execute that script automatically

    You can excute SQL statemetns throught JDBC, but that doesn't have a facility to read those statements from a file. You'd have to write code to read the file and create and execute statements through JDBC. That should be pretty straightforward though.
    It's conceivable that there's a third party library out there that does it, if you know what to look for.
    If you're not familiar with JDBC, check out http://java.sun.com/developer/onlineTraining/Database/JDBC20Intro/

  • Is it possible to run iTunes playlist from external program?

    I'd like to set up reminders in a planner program so that they open various playlists in iTunes. Is this possible, even though the playlists are buried in the library? I know I can do it with Windows Media Player, but I'd so rather not.
    Thanks,

    Oh, bummer. Would be much more convenient if I could just use iTunes for everything. Can't stand WMP. I wonder if WinAmp might be a good compromise?
