There may be a few links in Apple Support, regarding articles about how to use iBooks Author
and iBooks Store, etc; these would be separated into two general categories by device used.
Since there is an iOS and an OS X version of each, you may have to look to see what Apple
Support says about the one you are interested in; and how far their database goes toward an
answer to your question. Otherwise, a general search engine approach may be necessary.
Not sure if anything along the lines of what you seek would be available in an App.
References to iBooks Author and iBooks Store, etc appear within these two categories in Support:
For Mac OS X:
http://www.apple.com/support/mac-apps/
For iOS:
http://www.apple.com/support/ios/
Appears a community host moved your earlier post into one of the iBooks Author or Store sections
after I'd replied to what otherwise may be a similar post. Not sure if the links to the Discussions area
of iBooks you are interested in, have similar questions or answers by others who'd visited previously.

In my reply to your earlier thread, prior to it being moved, those links to sections of iBooks Author, etc
are posted. You can also find them from the main Apple Support Communities page.
Sorry to not be of much help in this matter.
Good luck & happy computing!

I would like to learn how JavaEE application and framework work on Weblogic.
Or is there any e-learnign seminar or how to video ?Is Google broken for you?
Just search for them (e.g. 'weblogic java ee tutorial') and you will find more than you can use.

hi everybody,
I have a silly doubt, which is good
import packagename.*;or
import packagename.classname;.. and wat is the diffference other than that, "*" means it will import all the classes in the package? will specifing the classname improve the java code execution or make it more optimized?
thanks for your comments
-- Abdel Raoof Olakara
http://olakara.googlepages.comDefinitely the performance problem is there if you
import using the "*" .
at run time it Load's all the classes.nope, it doesn't. import statements have nothing to do with classloading, they exist only at a source code level. classes are loaded lazily anyway, only when something actually goes to use them
So, specify the classes using class name explicitly,
it not only increase the performance but also it is
easy to understand who review's your codethe performance increase is a fallacy - well, possibly a slightly faster compile - but I agree with the readability, definately -
In Oracle, which is best practice for 'NOT EQUAL TO'
I need to check for where a decimal value is not zero.
Am I better to use
'less than symbol or greater than symbol' 0
or
!= 0or does Oracle substitute 'less than symbol or greater than symbol' to != effectively ?
In my mind if it doesn't the 'less than symbol or greater than symbol' would be slower because it has to check if the value is greater than OR less than.
I appreciate != is not SQL-92 compliant.
I appreciate it would be less than a nano second difference but they all add up!
Thanks
The 'less than symbol or greater than symbol' do not show it seems as they are used in HTML.

Edited by: cubmar on Jun 5, 2009 11:21 AMEven though The CBO is cleverly written program it does makes its assumptions. When ever the Optimizer finds a NOT operator it assumes that is going to fetch a large portion of the data and goes for a FULL TABLE SCAN. INDEX SCAN Is not an option.
And hence if you are not going to select a large portion of the data using NOT can be expensive.
Below is an example.
i have created a table which has one record with value as 1 and 99999 records with value as 0.
SQL> create table t
2 as
3 select decode(level,1,1,0) no, rpad('*',100,'*') name
4 from dual
5 connect by level <= 100000
6 /
Table created.
SQL> create index t_idx on t(no)
2 /
Index created.
SQL> exec dbms_stats.gather_table_stats(user,'T',cascade=>true)
PL/SQL procedure successfully completed.so when i use the condition no != 0 i am gong to select only 1 record. So i expect the optimizer to go for a INDEX RANGE SCAN but see what happens.
SQL> explain plan
2 for
3 select * from t where no != 0
4 /
Explained.
SQL> select * from table(dbms_xplan.display)
2 /
PLAN_TABLE_OUTPUT
Plan hash value: 1601196873
| Id | Operation | Name | Rows | Bytes | Cost (%CPU)| Time |
| 0 | SELECT STATEMENT | | 1 | 103 | 345 (2)| 00:00:05 |
|* 1 | TABLE ACCESS FULL| T | 1 | 103 | 345 (2)| 00:00:05 |
Predicate Information (identified by operation id):
PLAN_TABLE_OUTPUT
1 - filter("NO"<>0)
13 rows selected.But with the use of < or > you can go for a INDEX RANGE SCAN.
SQL> explain plan
2 for
3 select * from t where no >0 or no <0
4 /
Explained.
SQL> select * from table(dbms_xplan.display)

We have a pdf document which contains links of the format appname://some/path.
This is using Windows Asynchronous Pluggable Protocols which we have defined in the registry so these links should launch the application with the path as an argument.
If we disable enhanced security in Reader 11.0.7 then this works - otherwise it just fails to do anything.
With enhanced security on, we get warning and select trust this site for all pdfs.
Adobe then stores the first part of the path i.e. for appname://some/path it will store path in [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Adobe\Acrobat Reader\11.0\TrustManager\cDefaultLaunchURLPerms].
Don't get warning after that but the application still doesn't launch if enhanced security is enabled.Apologies was mislead - it's not enhanced security which is causing the issue, it is protected mode.

Create PDF file which will write to mdb
HI there.
I have a requirement to add some code to a set of PDF files which will be read by members of my team as part of their induction. Each pdf has a form at the end which captures their name and a tickbox to state that they have read the document. When a submit button as part of the form is clicked I would like to write these basic details to an access mdb database so that we can keep a check of who is compliant with the induction process.
Is it possible to use Livecycle designer to create a document which will do this when opened in Adobe Reader? I don't need the code to do this - just need to know if it is possible. If not are there any other ways I could save the information on the form silently without the user needing to do anything other than submit the information?
I've read somewhere that for certain things to work you need to activate some kind of reader extensions - is that the case for this solution?
Thanks in advance for your advice.
MattHi Matt,
Yes, if the user has the free Adobe Reader, then database access will require the form to be Reader Enabled in LC/ADEP Reader Extensions.
While you can Reader Enable a form in Acrobat (with restrictions), connecting to a database is not permitted.
See here for a summary: http://assure.ly/etkFNU.
Hope that helps,

Website to PDF - Keeping links ...
Hi
I've been asked to do a job where I have to convert a website so that each page is a pdf.
I have done this using the convert web to pdf website which is free and brilliant. It keeps the links which is impressive.
However it plonks a logo down the bottom of the convert2pdf website down the bottom which the client doesnt want. He also wants various other things link at the top of each web page there is a "join the mailing list" bit which he wants removed.
I thought of bringing the pdf into indesign and just covering the things he doesnt want with white boxes and re-pdfing but then the links disapear.
Any ideas anyone?
Cheers
SI have tried to use this function but the page doesnt come out in the correct format. It seems to take the menu bar and make it into a list, one under the other!
Cheers

Safari won't save or export a pdf file which otherwise displays correctly.
I can download a pdf item (form) and safari displays it correctly. however, if I try to save it or export it as a pdf, the resultant file is empty. Chrome works just fine. This is not unique to just one downloaded pdf file.
Back up all data before making any changes. Please take each of the following steps until the problem is resolved.
Step 1
If Adobe Reader or Acrobat is installed, and the problem is just that you can't print or save PDF's displayed in Safari, you may be able to do so by moving the cursor to the the bottom edge of the page, somewhere near the middle. A black toolbar should appear under the cursor. Click the printer or disk icon.
Step 2
There should be a setting in its preferences of the Adobe application such as Display PDF in Browser. I don't use those applications myself, so I can't be more precise. Deselect that setting, if it's selected.
Step 3
If you get a message such as ""Adobe Reader blocked for this website," then from the Safari menu bar, select
Safari ▹ Preferences... ▹ Security
and check the box marked
Allow Plug-ins
Then click
Manage Website Settings...
and make any required changes to the security settings for the Adobe PDF plugin.
Step 4
Triple-click anywhere in the line of text below on this page to select it, the copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C:
/Library/Internet Plug-ins
In the Finder, select
Go ▹ Go to Folder
from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-G. Paste into the text box that opens by pressing command-V, then press return.
From the folder that opens, move to the Trash any items that have "Adobe" or “PDF” in the name. You may be prompted for your login password. Then quit and relaunch Safari.
Step 5
The "Silverlight" web plugin distributed by Microsoft can interfere with PDF display in Safari, so you may need to remove it, if it's present. The same goes for a plugin called "iGetter," and perhaps others—I don't have a complete list. Don't remove Silverlight if you use the "Netflix" video-streaming service.
Step 6
Do as in Step 4 with this line:
~/Library/Internet Plug-ins
If you don’t like the results of this procedure, restore the items from the backup you made before you started. Relaunch Safari. -
How to change text in PDF doc. which is a musical score
Hello,
I'm new here, so please excuse me if I do or say something I shouldn't.
I need to change the words in a musical score because the font is too small. OCR recognition doesn"t work because there are illustrations that are different from images or text... Is there a way to get in there and make the changes I need to do?
Any help greatly appreciated.Thanks for the reply, but I have Adobe Reader 9 Pro. Will it still not
work ?

is there an EASY way to submit podcasts to the itunes store? i've tried creating podcasts in garageband, then somewhere after wordpress itunes doesn't recognize the feed.
my process has been (i am open to suggestions for other free and EASY services/methods):
garageband : create & edit audio. add 1400x1400 image.
share to itunes.
drag file to desktop.
upload .m4a file to google drive.
create a link post in wordpress using "podcast" tag & create "podcast" category.
click on "entries rss" in wordpress, which takes me to the rss subscribe page (which is basically just my wordpress address with "/feed" at the end.
i copy this url.
go to itunes store > then "submit a podcast"
itunes gives me the error message "we had difficulty downloading episodes from your feed."
when i try to subscribe to my podcast in itunes, it does, but gives me no episodes available.
i went back into wordpress and changed settings/ reading settings to : "full text" from "summary"
still the same error message.
i added a feedburner step after wordpress but got the same errors. i don't think i should have to add feedburner.
wordpress seems to be encapsulating the rss, what am i doing wrong?
this so much easier when you could go directly from garage band to iweb to mobileme; i miss those apple days (also idisk).if anyone has a super EASY process, i would LOVE to know what it is. EASY, meaning no html and also free. there are many free online storage systems available, many of which i currently use. the above process was just me trying to figure it out, if you have an easier method, please share. thank you so much!

Performing OCR text recognition in all pages of a PDF document which has blank pages
The PDF pages in the file are scanned as an image, but there are blank pages also. So, page 1, 2 have images of scanned text, page 3 is blank, pages 4, 5, have images of scanned text, page 6 is blank and so on.The series of blank pages is 3, 6, 9....
I am using Adobe Acrobat Pro version 9 on Windows XP. I choose the Document option in menu, OCR Text recognition->Recognize text using OCR->All pages. But, the OCR stops after page 2.
Then, I go to page 4 and find that it is still an image(and I cannot copy the text from it). So, then I have to choose the Document option in menu, OCR Text recognition->Recognize text using OCR->All pages. But, the OCR stops after page 6.
The document has some 200 pages and I don't want to manually do the choose the Document option in menu, OCR Text recognition->Recognize text using OCR->All pages for all pages which have text.
I also tried choose the Document option in menu, OCR Text recognition->Recognize text using OCR->Page 1 to page 200, but that too does not work.
I can manually go to each blank page, delete it, then do the OCR but that would be tedious.
1. Am I missing something in doing the OCR of all pages?
2. Can I set up a batch process to do the delete of blank page series or can I set up a batch process which does OCR of all pages(and does not stop at a blank page) as it is doing now?
Any suggestions would be appreciated.Hm, you could convert every pdf-page to a image file (jpeg, etc.):
-install the package imagemagick
-use the command convert
convert -trim -density 150 your.pdf your.jpg
This will generate a jpg-file for every pdf-page; "-trim" removes the white margins, density specifies the resolution of the page (you could also try "-resize" instead of "-density") and 150 specifies amount of dots per inch.
This does not generate a new pdf-file, but maybe there is a way to convert the images back into a single pdf? -
Hello, I have a 5min. part of a piece of meditation music (I think its from the 1970-80s) is there a website that can upload my sample and tell me who it is ? I want to get a new version....Thanks............Its in Mp3 format
Well... it's not actually an iTunes or even an Apple question is it? But you can use either Shazam or Soundhound.
If you do a search for both of them, you will find the various options available to you, which include apps for portable devices and in the case of Shazam, a work-round that allows you to use an online option using your computer's microphone on either a PC or Mac.
There may be other services as well, but I know these two.
I do not receive any reward (financial or otherwise) as a result of mentioning either Shazam or Soundhound. -
I have a document made up of separate PDF files which reside in a folder and are linked to each other via hyperlinks. Each pdf file is set to open with bookmarks displayed, however if I link from one PDF file to another and use the "Previous View" button to navigate back to my starting point the bookmarks are replaced by "page thumbnails". Is there anyway to stop this from happening?
Hi Pusman,
While setting up the links, if you choose to open the file in a new window then you won't face this issue, then you can simply switch to the previous file and bookmark view will remain as it is.
Does that helps with your query?

Firefox keep asking to open or save pdf files which are already in my disk.
Hi all,
Firefox build in function to open pdf files was working ok.
Lately when i try to open a .PDF file which is already in my disk i get a window asking me :
"What should firefox do with this file?
-Open with (firefox default)
-Save the file"
Since the .PDF is already in my disk , i want to open it but firefox keeps asking in that window so i have to cancel and a new blank tab stays there.
What should i do to open the .PDF file?
BTW,i tried to delete the mimetypes.rdf file as read on a message here in order to Reset download actions but in vain.
Thank you for your time reading this.
Regards,
the_observer.Hi cor-el,
I used your suggestions and i have the below results:
1.
"''You can change the action for Portable Document Format (PDF) from Preview in Firefox to use another application like the Adobe Reader or set to Always Ask in "Firefox > Options/Preferences > Applications''"
This is not satisfactory because i don't want to use it.I just want the internal viewer for PDF's of Firefox.
2.
''"You can set the pdfjs.disabled pref to true on the about:config page to disable the build-in PDF viewer."''
I set the pdfjs.disabled pref to true and after firefox restart it kept opening empty tabs (weird)
3.
''"You can check the value of the plugin.disable_full_page_plugin_for_types pref on the about:config page and remove the application/pdf part if present or reset the pref to the default via the right-click context menu."''
I did that and just keeps me asking in new tabs what to do with pdf (open or save)
Then i thought maybe another addon conflicted with firefox PDF viewer so i started it in safe mode.Tried to open a pdf and started to open empty tabs...
Finally i installed [https://addons.mozilla.org/en-us/firefox/addon/pdfjs/ this] addon and pdf open ok now.
Still i had to use an addon to make them open.
It was running correctly with out add on.
Is there something else to try since i dont want addon?
Firefox pdf internal viewer was very satisfactory for me...
