Letter count in multiple Id documents?

Hello,
I'm working on a book project. The single chapters are single files. Additionally I have one Id document where all documents are displayed/link for preview reasons.
Now to my question: is there a possibility to do a letter count the gives me a total number? ... the sum from all linked indesign files?
I look forward to your reply and send best regards,
Christin

Open all the files
Find/Change
Go to the grep tab
Find
\w
Change to
$0
The find change result dialog box will display how many letters were changed - but nothing is changed as you have opted to change to found text - which is the same.
You just get a number that represents how many letters were changed, which is your letter count.

How to determine the page count of the front document (pdf-Preview) with applescript?

Hello, I'm a beinnger apple scripter, and I have 2 questions. First, im trying to find the code to generate a page count for the front document of preview. I tried something like this:
choose file with prompt "Count the number of pages in this PDF file:" without invisibles
do shell script "/usr/bin/mdls -name kMDItemNumberOfPages " & quoted form of POSIX path of result & " | /usr/bin/grep -o '[0-9]\\+$'"
But I dont want to have to choose a file with the prompt, and Im not sure how to get the path or POSIX path of an open pdf that is the front document in prievew to then use that directory to select the file to run the shell script on. This is one step in a much larger sequence of automator/apple script commands for large print jobs.
The large scale view is:
1. seleting a group .musx Finale 2014 files and creating pdfs of all the documents
     -Achieved with Automator stuff: [Get selected finder items] [open finder items with Finale 2014] [run applescript to convert to pdf all the open files] (which I have working but without a proper repeat condition)
2. sorting those those exports into even/odd groups
3. making the even pages 2 up with a create booklet plugin
3. combinging even/odd group pdfs in their respective folders
4. sending the 2 up evens to 1 printer, and the singes to another printer.
but at this stage in the code/automator this is what i'll need to be doing:
1. Several pdf documents will be open and I need to determine the page count of the front document.
2. With that result I need to determine if the pagecount is even or odd.
3. If its even, I need to save as pdf in a file folder /desktop/PDF Export/Doubles
     - if its odd, I need to save as pdf pages from 1 to (pageCount -1) to /desktop/PDF Export/Doubles, and pages (pageCount) to (pageCount) to desktop/PDF Export/Singles. (example: A 5 page pdf will send pages 1-4 to folder "Doubles", and pages from 5 to 5 to Singles, A 1 page pdf will only send a copy to the folder "Singles." A 2 page pdf will send both pages to "doubles"
4. once the even/odd pages have had pdfs made in the either or both of the folders, Im going to close the document and repeat for all other open pdfs.
Which also brings me to my 2nd repeat condition question: how can I repeat (print, save as pdf, close) commands for open files and end the script once all files are closed? This can help me both at this stage, as well the coding stage before in creating the pdfs from open Finale/sibelius .sib/.musx files
would it be something like this?:
If front document exists
try
tell application "preview"
<bla bla>
end try
end tell
At stage 1 of the large scale i've gotten the files to export pdfs and close multiple files, but if i say "repeat 4 times" and i have 3 files it can do those commands but it gets stuck trying to repeat the code one more time. I need the repeat amount x to be the # of items in selection from the the original finder window.
Thanks for the help!

The following AppleScript will get the POSIX path and filename of the current PDF file. It will just return the integer value for page count. Note: The path retrieved is the actual path to the PDF file, unless it is on the Desktop. In the latter case, the path will be ~/Library/Containers/com.apple.Preview/Data/Desktop/filename.pdf.
The script assumes that the following folders exist, otherwise you will need a try block to test for their presence.
The AppleScript dictionary for Preview does not provide a page dictionary entry, that would make a repeat loop and page range possible for saving individual page ranges.
set pdfDoubles to POSIX path of ((path to desktop) & "PDF Export" & Doubles)
set pdfSingles to POSIX path of ((path to desktop) & "PDF Export" & Singles)
tell application "Preview"
-- gets quoted POSIX path and filename
          set pdfFile to (get path of front document)
          set pdfName to (get name of front document)
log pdfName
          set cmdArg to "/usr/bin/mdls -name kMDItemNumberOfPages " & pdfFile ¬
                    & " | egrep -o \"(\\d+)\""
          set pageCnt to do shell script cmdArg
display dialog pageCnt
          if pageCnt mod 2 is 0 then
-- even
-- save pdfName in pdfDoubles
          else
-- save pdfName in pdfDoubles
-- save individual pages in pdfSingles
          end if
end tell

Convert a word document to multiple PDF documents

Hello
I would like to convert a word document to multiple PDF documents. (i.e. convert 20 page word document into 20 single page PDF's). Is it possible to do this easliy and quickly.
I have used word mail merge to create multiple cover letters in word
I would now like to convert each cover letter (which is 1 page each) into individialized PDF's so that I can email them out as attachments
I currently have been copying and pasting from my master word document into a fresh word document (one page at a time) then, saving, then converting to PDF one cover letter at a time. Although this works it is time consuming and I figured there may be an easier quicker way to do this
Any thoughts, suggesstions, would be greatly appreciated
Thanks

It is possible to convert the word document into a PDF then while the PDF is open do:
Document
Extract Pages
1-20
Check "Extract pages as seperate files"
This will give you 20 seperate files.
Hope it helps!

Sendmail plugin: emailing multiple page document, each page to a separate email address

when I try to email a document to separate email addresses it will not separate the pages, The Sendmail plugin claims (in the page with the "next" button) that it will read each page and use the email address found there to mail that page to that address, but it only creates a multiple page document to mail to the address found on the first page.

Query performance - A single large document VS multiple small documents

Hi all,
What are the performance trade offs when using a single large document VS multiple small documents ?
I want to store xml snippets with similar structure in a container. Is there any benefit while querying, if I use a single large document to store all these snippets against adding each snippet as a different document. Would it degrade the performance when adding an xml snippet each time by modifying an existing document?
How could we decide whether to use a single large document VS multiple small documents?
Thanks,
Anoop

Hello Anoop,
In case you wanted to get a comparison between the storage types for containers, wholedoc and node, let us know.
What are the performance trade offs when using a
single large document VS multiple small documents ?Depends on what is more important to you, performance when creating the container, and inserting the document(s) or performance when retrieving data.
For querying the best option is to go with smaller documents, as node indexes would help in improving query performance.
For inserting initial data, you can construct your large document composed of smaller xml snippets and insert the document as a whole.
If you further want to modify this document changing its structure implies performance penalties; more indicated is to store the xml snippets as documents.
Overall, I see no point in using a large document that will hold all of your xml snippets, so I strongly recommend going with multiple smaller documents.

Loading/breaking large files containing multiple XML documents using plsql

Hi I have a requirement where in the client sends the multiple xml payloads/documents in a single text file. I need to load that into the xmltype varialbe. How to do this?
I'm able to load the entire document into a clob object, here.. all the xml payloads are loaded into a single row. When I try to access this I get a error
ORA-31001: Invalid resource handle or path name "/MobileInventoryResponse.dtd"
ORA-06512: at "SYS.XMLTYPE", line 254
ORA-06512: at line 1
This error is due to the dtd present in the xml document : <!DOCTYPE MobileInventoryResponse SYSTEM "MobileInventoryResponse.dtd">
But if I load the data into a clob after removing the doctype reference then I get the following error. Here to mulitple xml documents are loaded into a single clob row.
ORA-31011: XML parsing failed
ORA-19202: Error occurred in XML processing
LPX-00209: PI names starting with XML are reserved
Error at line 81
ORA-06512: at "SYS.XMLTYPE", line 254
ORA-06512: at line 1
When try to access this by using select xmltype(x) from t
where x is column type of clob.
Please let me know any method or type loading the multiple xml documents by using plsql. Only plsql method. There is a way by using SAX Loader. But can it be used in plsql or its a java method of loading.
Regards,
Naveen

sorry for that...
There was enter character between some tags. From there I'm not receiving that particular error.
Now what I get is
ORA-31001: Invalid resource handle or path name "/MobileInventoryResponse.dtd"
ORA-06512: at "SYS.XMLTYPE", line 254
ORA-06512: at line 1
ORA-06512: at line 39
This is because there is a doctype at the start of the xml payload.
But if there is no <!DOCTYPE MobileInventoryResponse SYSTEM "MobileInventoryResponse.dtd"> this statement then it works fine.
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE MobileInventoryResponse SYSTEM "MobileInventoryResponse.dtd">
<MobileInventoryResponse>
And this exercise I'm doing in my Windows xp loaded operating system with a local instance of oracle ... Do i need to do any other setting.
Along with that I followed your method mentioned @ Re: LPX-00209: PI names starting with XML are reserved
ignore:=dbms_xdb.createResource('/MobileInventoryResponse.dtd',bfilename('XML_DIR','MobileInventoryResponse.dtd'));
And I'm not getting how it will refer the this resource.
this above partilcular statement . should it be executed when ever we insert into the table ? But in the dtd there is no word saying "MobileInventoryResponse".
got this error.
ORA-31011: XML parsing failed
ORA-19202: Error occurred in XML processing
LPX-00104: Warning: element "MobileInventoryResponse" is not declared in the DTD

Support for multiple pdf document with signature

I have a question about signatures.
Does the PDF specification support the combination of multiple pdf documents into one pdf document with the following constraint:
- each individual pdf document has been signed (by an X.509 certificate),
- the individual documents can come from different sources, so they have to be 'included' or merged into the final pdf,
- the final pdf document should not change the signatures of the individual documents.
So each part of the document should maintain the integrity of the individual components and the signature of the individual comnponents are still valid.
Does the pdf specification support this feature?
With kind regards,
Ernst Jan

What you want is called a PDF Package (or Portable Collection in the PDFRef) and is new in PDF 1.7. You can try it out with Acrobat 8.

Why won't my computer let me make changes to documents??

Why won't my computer let me make changes to documents saved in pages and save them again? It keeps saying access denied when its my computer and I have Lion OS X

Right click the document and select 'get info'. Check the permissions for the file. If several of these files have the wrong permissions then you may need to repair user permissions. See this for instructions:
