Loading PDF's to content area

On a daily basis, i receive a few dozen pdf's from an outside source that I would like to upload to various content areas. I can do this manually quite nicely, and put them into the various content areas they need to be in, and have them versioned and expired, etc.
The process just takes too long. The pdf's come during the night and need to be out by open of business. How can I load these pdf's where they need to go in an automated fashion?

Check out the apis on portalstudio.oracle.com. There is a plsql api that you can use. The directory where the files reside
must be visible to the db server

Cannot output Reports pdf directly to content area

I have registered a report (Oracle Reports rdf) as a portal component. It is included in a content area. I can execute the report and the output file is created (pdf) - but it is not loaded automatically into the content area folder that I specified in the scheduling parameters.
The pdf file is created in the first directory in the REPORTS60_PATH (in our case 'bin').
Version info :
9iAS 1.0.2.2
Portal 3.0.9

Andy,
The integration of Oracle Reports into a Portal content area is possible in two ways. Having registered a report in the Reports security pages the Oracle Report appears a standard Web component and may be added as an item. In this case the report appears as a Link which when clicked will run the report at that time (you indicate that this is working). The second way is to push a scheduled report automatically to a defined folder such that when a user moves to that folder the pre-generated report is already there.
This second technique requires that the report server know where the Portal repository is stored. To do this you need to first set the "REPOSITORYCONN" parameter in the Report Servers configuration file (usually <reportServerName>.cfg) Eg. portal30/portal30@PortalSID. This will then allow the server to push the completed document to the defined folder.

Need an adobe pdf with 2 content areas like a book

Dear all,
maybe an easy question for you but I didn´t find a solution yet.
I need a PDF like a book. Means Page 1 on the left side, Page 2 on the right side.
On Next page: Page 3 on left, Page 4 on right side and so on.
Thanks.
Kind regards
Frank

Hi Frank,
you just have to set a own paperformat (for example A4 special) and afterwards setting up the XDC-File to the specific printing-mode.

All pages contents are diagonal (text, pictures, buttons...)

when i open firefox, the home page loads, but everything is diagonal, and it's the same for every page, they load but all the contents are diagonal. an example: i see a button that should be in a corner standing in the middle of the page and when i want to click on it, the text from the button appears near it so i have to click there to load this content. it's like the button and it's picture are separated and everything it's diagonal, even the text is italic.

Use rating for Content Area items.

Does anybody now if it is possible to rate
items loaded in a Portal Content Area.
So later on you can see how high visitors
rated the items you loaded.

Hi,
You can always add an extra attribute to the item, but then the users need access to all the attributes of the item.
Good luck.

Acrobat 9 PDF Portfolio - setting size of swf content area

Hi,
I added a swf file to a PDF Portfolio in Acrobat 9 Pro Extended and it works fine when the portfolio is opened in Reader 9, except that the swf content area is small. I want it to occupy the entire page. How/Where do I set this?
Thanks
Vijay

I've got this same problem. I add a SWF that's got a width and height of 792x612px. After using the Multimedia->Insert Flash tool the movie is resized to 320x240px and doesn't look right.
Does anyone have any wisdom or insights that can help me understand what I'm missing? I'd love to solve this problem and there doesn't seem to be a lot of info related to this functionality online.
Thanks,
Scott

Open a pdf document in portal content area

All,
I have a folder in 'Public Document' with a pdf file. A KM Navigation iView points to the folder with the pdf file. When a user clicks on the pdf file it opens in a seperate window. Is it possible to open the pdf file in the content area of the portal.
Thank you.

PDF in Content Area?

Is it possible to display a PDF-File in Folder Area, not in full browser window? How can I make two frames in Content Area, one for Navigation Bar and one for PDF-File?
null

All,
We're working on solving this problem. A high priority for us is to always maintain the Portal context for all content, so the user always has links to take them back to home, the previous page, etc.
We moved from frames to tables because of overwhelming demand from most users. Although frames have the one advantage that you cite, their other disadvantages (difficulty with bookmarking, printing, and others) have caused many sites to abandon them. In fact, Jakob Nielsen, the leading expert on Web usability, calls frames the #1 mistake in Web Design.

Problem when loading pdf files from Shared Content

When I load pdf files from Shared Content, I got the following problem: "The selected document could not be retrieved, please try uploading the document again."
Anyone knows this?
Thank you very much in advanced.

I don't migrated the program, but installed it from the original installer,
i. e. I first installed Indesign from backup, and then uninstalled it and
reinstall clean from Adobe.

Iview calls new Page on Content Area

Hello Everybody,
I have a Page with 3 Iviews on it, and would like that an Iview call a new Page.
Wich means, I have Iview 1,2,3 on Page A and if you trigger a link on of these Iviews a new Page B should be loaded.
All I got is that the Page loaded in the Iview itself. Is there an opportunity to change that behavior, to call a Page B from an Iview that reloads the content area with a Page B?
Thanks in advanced,
Marcus

Hi Marcus,
you can call EPCM.doNavigate with the PCD target, see https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/servlet/prt/portal/prtroot/com.sap.km.cm.docs/documents/a1-8-4/enterprise portal client.pdf

How to pass variable to content area from a PL/SQL procedure

Hi,
Can somebody tell me how to create a(Content area) folder based on a PL/SQL procedure that takes a variable as a
parameter and returns data based on value of that parameter to the folder . Any help would be appreciated .
Thanks and regards.
Neeti.

Somewhere, in one procedure, build a session identifier and save your variable there. If no session with that identifier is previously stored, it will create a new session instance with that ID for you.
declare
l_sess portal30.wwsto_api_session;
varvalue number;
begin
varvalue := 100;
l_sess := portal30.wwsto_api_session.load_session('MYSESSION','VARIABLES');
l_sess.set_attribute('VAR_NAME',varvalue);
l_sess.save_session;
end;
In your other procedure, or anywhere else needed within that same session, simply load the session and reference the variable. To reference the variable, use the following.
-- assuming new procedure, so re-defining session variable and reloading session into it
declare
my_session portal30.wwsto_api_session;
my_new_variable number;
begin
my_session := portal30.wwsto_api_session.load_session('MYSESSION','VARIABLES');
my_new_variable := my_session.get_attribute_as_number('VAR_NAME');
end;
This will let you reference parameters across multiple portal applications and indirect calls.

How to Pop-up new Window and load PDF at same time

Hi
In my servlet application, when I receive request, I have to load PDF form and at same time I have to pop up new browser window with html content ( help data).
I thought of writing <script>window.open(....)</script> to outputstream before writing FDFdocument , but it fails.
I am using FDF tool kit to load PDF forms, once I set content type to "application/vnd.fdf" , I can't write any javascript to response.
Any help /ideas to do this is appreciated.
Thanks,
Prakash

Hi Prakash,
Here is the way to solve this issue:
Make use of HTML frame, one frame (maybe with 0 height and width) pop up with a new HTML browser using javascript. Set the content type and display the pdf in another frame.
Note that one page can only set content type once, so if u have set it to application/vnd.fdf, you cannot write HTML content into same response stream.

DW MX trouble with loading PDF files

I'm using Dreamweaver MX on an XP Pro machine and have
trouble loading pdf documents to my web pages. It cooperates
intermittently. I'm using a virtual pdf printer to convert word
documents to pdf, then saving them to my website folder, selecting
the linking text on my page in DW, using the link box to select my
pdf document, then saving the page and putting files in both the
local and remote views.
This method has worked for me before, and now it's not. Does
anyone know of a reason for this? The documents are saved
correctly, as I can get them to open as pdf outside of dreamweaver
and my webpage...when I click on the link I created online I get
"page not found."
Thanks for any help!

I am having the same trouble with Dreamweaver MX 2004 on
Mac-OSX since I switched from MacOs9. I still have no solution .
When I want to export a .pdf file I get a message saying <ftp
error>.
I never had problems on Mac Os 9 and it started when using
the first version of Mac Os X. I am presently using mac Os 10.4.10
and I am still unable to transfer .pdf files, no matter whether I
use acrobat or the Mac system to produce the.pdf file.
When I try the page on my computer the link to the.pdf file
functions allright, but not on the server as the file cannot be
transfered to it by the software.
Does someone know how to solve this ?
