ISR/Adobe: Getting the PDF binary within ABAP and upload PDF

Dear Forum,
I feel there have been some questions like this before on this matter, but not explicitly enough. My question applies only to Adobe together with ISR (not webdynpro/Adobe).
Using ISR/Adobe, the PDF is just used as a dynamic form. However, there are moments in the requests lifetime that it could be fixed. F.i. for sending e-mails with the PDF as attachment, or after approval for electronic archiving.
These both are hot topics on the project I am currently working on, but the way how to implement is not that clear.
The first thing I can think of is to use an FP* function modules based ABAP program to recreate the PDF. This is possible, since QISRSCENARIO also implements a forms interface. However, there are a few cons on this, as well on functionality (FP interface vs. webdynpro handling of ISR data) as from a maintenance point of view: you have to program an interface twice!
Second best but at least far more complex is to recreate the PDF binary by calling the ADS directly with an XFT and dynamically created XFD file. Much more work, but offers more functionality (longtexts!)
How nice would it be, if the ISR webdynpro's could offer the binary to the ABAP ISR* function modules, so they could be used anywhere where needed exactly identical to the original rendered form. But I am not aware of such possibility.
Has anyone made some progress on this field? And, asking to Markus, is SAP planning to make such possible in coming releases?
And while I am questioning this, Markus, are there any plans to incorporate the off-line webdynpro adobe possibility into ISR?
Looking forward to any answer and best regards, Hans GM

You can use the print form directly. I mean the same way as you would use the WD/ online form. Provide the form name, the data source and stuff and the form should work. If that would be an interactive one, you would not be able to change any values if the form is based on DDIC dictionary, but since you want to use the printform, this is not your concern.

We use a plugin Adobe Acrobat NPAPI Plug-in Version 10.1.2 on a Mac to get the pdf to open in a browser window. Is there a later version or other method ?

We use a plugin Adobe Acrobat NPAPI Plug-in Version 10.1.2 on a Mac to get the pdf to open in Acrobat and the pdf display within the browser window, as within our Online artwork Approval system we use the Acrobat Annotations server to annotate pdfs and publish to the server
But we can no longer get this plugin to work! Is there a later version ? or is there another way of forcing the pdf to open in a Acrobat Reader application (not the Mac viewer) within the browser and not open another window to display the pdf in Acrobat?

The latest version is 11.0.6. Whether that's available to you depends on the version of Mac OS you're running.

How do I get the PDF Convert feature of Adobe Acrobat Pro Extended 9.4.4, which makes a PDF of a web page interactive, to work in Firefox 4.0.1?

I just installed (on my Windows 7 Ultimate (64 bit) operating system/Intel i5 CPU M560 2.67 GHz) and am now using as my default browser Firefox 4.0.1 because Internet Explorer 9 was giving me so much trouble--lack of display of web content, lack of PDF reproduction when web content displayed, screwball formatting display, etc., all of which has been remedied by the mere installation of Firefox 4.0.1.
How do I get the PDF Convert feature of Adobe Acrobat Pro Extended 9.4.4, which converts a web page to an interactive PDF, to set up and work on Firefox 4.0.1?

You can not do that using Adobe Acrobat 9. Adobe never made a create PDF add-on for Firefox for use with Adobe Acrobat 9. They created a Firefox add-on for use with Acrobat X, but currently that one does not work with Firefox 4 though Adobe are working on an update.

When I convert a PDF to a Word doc, it "converts" as a picture and I cannot edit the document. What can I do to get the PDF to convert properly?

Hi conversionnewbie,
Are you able to select the text in Word by triple-clicking inside the text box? (Sometimes text selections can be tricky in converted files.) If you can't select the text, then I'm guessing that the PDF was created from a scanned file (so the text becomes images). Make sure that OCR is enabled when you convert the file to Word. OCR is enabled by default in the ExportPDF web interface, but can be disabled in Adobe Reader. If you're converting to Word from within Adobe Reader, make sure that OCR is enabled and that the correct language is selected:
Please let us know that works for you!
Best,
Sara

How can I get the PDF to retain margins set in Word document?

Hi NancyS,
If you're on Windows, you can try using the PDF Desktop printer to "print" your document to PDF format. Here are the instructions for installing and setting up the PDF Desktop printer: Install and configure Adobe CreatePDF Desktop Printer.
Please let us know if you have better luck using the PDF Desktop Printer.

How do I get the PDF icon to show on all of my PDF files?

Generally the icons are a selection that is set in MS Explorer (on the PC). Depending on the version of windows, there are various ways of getting at the properties related to an icon, including what application would open the file.

My hard drive died last week, and I needed to install a new one. Previously, I was able to save a .doc with text and inserted photo to .pdf and then to .jpg. Now I can get the .pdf but can't determine what to do to convert to .jpg. Does anyone know ?

Rather than do that, which means starting over from scratch, losing all your edits, organisation and so on, why not simply use iPhoto Library Manager to revert the Library to the older version? Easier, less destructive.
The instructions on that are here
If you really want to start over: you can access the Originals folder simply by going to your Pictures Folder and finding the iPhoto Library there. Right (or Control-) Click on the icon and select 'Show Package Contents'. A finder window will open with the Library exposed.

How to get the Pdf's page size?

Hi,
Anyone can tell me how to get the pdf's page size with js in acrobat?
Regards
Goldbridge

The page size will not always necessarily conform to a standard size such as A4 - PDFs can be defined at any abstract size a user wants. Having a function that only output standard sizes would greatly limit its ability, so it was left up to the user to calculate whether or not the returned rectangle is a standard size as that satisfies many more workflows than the opposite method.
