Limiting output formats

Hi, I've developed some reports with xml publisher. Now the company comes with a requirement that the reports can only be in pdf format and none other for security reasons. Is there a way to turn off excel, rtf e.t.c output for a specific report?
Thanks

Hi
I tried the option you gave me for a report which has .xsl template but still i dont see PDF in the list . I checked the same for sample report also and it is the same. I dont know how to attach file to the forum question otherwise would have uploaded the screenshot .
Do you think I need to upload a style template to view PDF outptu?
Thank you

Example Numeric fields --> Right Aligned, text fields --> Left Aligned
One more issue with excel is -ve(negative) values are getting displayed in red and in brackets like ($13) (with red color).

Hi Mahi,
Thanks for your response. But i could not understand how can we write wrapper program could you please give some light on this or provide some link it would be helpful for me:-)
I have read that blog for excel limitations but i have more question?
1) What about the negative values?
if any field is displaying negative amount then excel not displaying right value for that:(
2)How can we align header or data?
Do XMLP with EBS provide any solution for formatting in excel?
3) If for the alignment of numeric value we concatenate them with any special character then how can we perform calculation that field?
Here are so many formatting issues do we need to write any code in xml for that?
Please help.
Many Thanks,
Pragati

Output format

im using adobe premiere cs5 in my mac.. i want to make some clip which is can be played smoothly on PC with output format is .avi and i cant find the options for make the video become .avi in my adobe premiere for mac? what should i do?

I just found the web site for this software; its codec support is extremely limited. Their suggested solution is to install a codec pack that most users here recommend against--I won't even name it, since most of us feel it is that bad. However, the documentation says that installing that is necessary to enable playback of formats like MOV and MP4.
Look in EasyWorship Church Presentation Software / Support for the manual; the knowledge base also has a "Video Compatibility" section that may prove useful.

APEX Report Output Formats

In the SQL Workshop query builder can the output of these queries be changed to HTML or ASCII? We have WEBDB running and are able to change the output formats at run time.

Hello Andy,
The APEX Query Builder was not designed as a report generator. It’s main purpose is to allow novice users to create SQL queries in a bit more friendly manner. After testing the validity of the query, with the displayed format type, you should actually copy the generated SQL code into an appropriate page region, like a report region.
The configuration options of this specific tool are very limited, and as far as I know, the kind of things you are asking for can’t be done in this version. One of the major additions to APEX 4.0 will be something (I don’t know the final name for it) that will allow you to do the sort of things you are asking for.
>> Also cant he number of records that are displayed by increased to say 1000 or 4000 rather then 15?
You can’t change the displayed number of records in the Query Builder. A possible work around can be to copy the SQL query into the SQL Commands. There you can control the number of displayed records.
Regards,
Arie.
&diams; Please remember to mark appropriate posts as correct/helpful. For the long run, it will benefit us all.

Concurrent programs - adding output format

hi all,
how do you add other output formats in the concurrent programs form in Oracle Applications : 11.5.10.2?
the options i have are limited to HTML, FO, PCL, PDF, XML. i need to add Excel or XLS if possible.
thanks
allen

Hi Srini,
Thanks for the suggestion.
I'm not sure if this is applicable to my situation as I'm using a PL/SQL Stored Procedure to generate the Excel. Then run this as a Request. Afterwards, I click the View Output to view the file.
I am using the FND_FILE.PUT_LINE(fnd_file.output, string) package to create the file and currently has the extension of PCL but it doesn't automatically open in Excel. I'm guessing Excel does not recognize the file format but it is able to open it if I do it manually.
Not really my idea but it is the client's request.
Thanks,
Allen

Changing Oracle Report Output Format at runtime

Dear All,
I've custom Oracle Report in Oracle Apps., and would like to give the users an option to select the output format (XML, TEXT, PDF, etc.) whilst submitting the request.
As a SYSADMIN, we can modify the Output Format value of the concurrent program(Oracle Report in this case) to one we like.
But I would like the user to select this output format option at runtime, rather then hard coding at SYSADMIN level. For that I've to create a Value Set with the desired report output format options, and attach this to the concurrent program.
My question is, how we can make the desired output format to work at runtime?
If any one can help?
Thanks,
Sandeep

Hi Steve,
I couldn't get it...???
I'm running an Oracle Report in Oracle Apps. release 11.5.9
The default output format of this report is TEXT, which is defined in its concurrent program.
This report is submitted using standard request submission screen, and after successful completion we can view the output by pressing "View Output" button on "Requests" screen. This will open an another window and we can view the output page by page. Using "Tools>Copy File..." menu option, we can view the same output in IE window.
Now, how does your resolution fits here and how can I view the same report in XML format?
Many Thanks,
Sandeep

Suppose output contains 35 columns ( while running the report in Foreground) but in doesn't show all the columns in background. Is there any SAP Standard settings by which we can set the output format as per our requirement while running the job in background.

Thanx Sourabh for your reply,
I have check the variant , it is correct. It's a common problem that end users are facing in my organization.

Tutorials in SWF output format prompted "Do you trust this content to connect to the Internet?" when opening another SWF file

Please help.
I have a tutorial with in the output format of SWF and HTM. I have click boxes that On Success will open another tutorial (SWF file). When I click on the click box, I get prompted “Do you trust this content to connect to the Internet?” by the Adobe Flash Player. I can click “Yes” and continue, however I don’t want the user to get prompted for every click box with this action (there is one for every tutorial and navigation buttons to each tutorial). I also think that SCORM can't handle the prompt, because when I run the tutorial from the LMS the click boxes do not work at all.
I have tried selecting “Always allow” in the Global Security Settings panel as per the instruction on this website: http://www.macromedia.com/support/documentation/en/flashplayer/help/settings_manager04.htm l.
Any ideas?

Hi,
I wanted to add on a question to this posting.... I believe Rod's instructions must be followed on a per-PC basis, correct? Is there any way to disable this globally when/after I publish the files rather than telling 1000 users across the globe that they have to change their security settings? I don't think so from the article (very thorough) but just hoping there's something I can do?!
Thank you!

QM-How to add a New "Output Format" in Certificate Profile?

Hello QM Functional Experts,
Can any of you tell me how we can add a custom "Output Format" in the Certificate Profile (QC01/2/3). I tried the Configuration approach via QM-Quality Certificates-Certificate Profile-Define Data Origin. I do not see an option here to add a New Output Format.
If this is posted in a wrong forum, I apologize. I am not able to find the correct forum for QM. Please redirect me and I will be glad to post it in the right forum.

(Input and) output formats from Photoshop Elements 6 for Mac

I noticed that (until midnight PT, anyway) Amazon has Photoshop Elements for the Mac at a lower price than usual. This brings up a question for me: What output formats can Photoshop Elements 6 produce? In particular, can it produce PNG? Also, can it accept PNG as input?

I think that all the formats like .bmp, camera RAW, EPS,PICT, TIFF, Filmstripn, IFF, JPEG, Photoshop pdf, Photoshop RAW,PNG etc are supported for both input and output.

Different resolution in preview and output format

Hi Folks
I need your help. We already captured a lot of e-learning material but come to a problem.
The output format quality is less good than the preview quality.
Win7 /Captivate 6
Capture resolution for software simulation is 1024x768.
Producing the material in swf and html. No compressing, set to best quality.
Open the preview: quality is nearly the same as the original source.
Open the swf directly or the html --> output looks cloudy, diffuse.
Test with an without scalable html. In case of scalable html it is hard to find the right resolution (1024x768) on a 1280x1024 resolution monitor, but you can find it and the the output is clear as the preview.
The output format resolution within the project is set to 1024x768. We measured the "true" output resolution on different produced output formats, and they are all a little bit higher than 1024x768, about 4% more heigh and width.
Of course, I was able to change the html-script which sets the start-format for an swf to open, if I change it to 1024x768 and save it, the quality of the swf is like the preview and sharp and ok. But in case of scalable html I cannot set the format. However, why the swf -even when i start/opeen it directly- didn't start with the right resolution set in the settings within the project?
Also our target group should not "search" for the sharp resolution by scaling the output window.
Why does captivate change the resolution? why is the preview ok and the produced swf not? I didn't understand that fact.
Also we like to produce with TOC, so the widht for TOC is 250. If I change the html script in that case to 1024+250=1274x768 the swf is also unshapr/cloudy and I havee no change to fit it to the right resolution (1024+TOC).

Rob
