Locking down the Optimize Scanned PDF checkbox

Hello,
Is there a way to grey out or lockdown the "Optimize Scanned PDF" option when Creating a pdf from a scanner? I can't seem to find if there is a registry key or location for this option.
Also where does Acrobat store the "Defaults" for these presets? Also this is Adobe Acrobat 11.

I have this same EXACT problem. Why doesnt adobe address this issue right away? Why are things getting worst and worst as adobe releases versions of adobe acrobat pro. I did not have this problem for Adobe acrobat pro 8.
Since deskewing is a very prominent feature in acrobat and used alot, adobe should fix this problem asap.

Is 'Optimize Scanned PDF' available in Acrobat X Standard?

Can anyone with Acrobat X Standard tell me whether the 'Optimize Scanned PDF' option is available? We have need to buy a new license and this is one feature that we use, but I can't determine whether this feature is available in Standard or if I would need to buy the Pro version. Thanks!

Yes, Optimize Scanned PDF comes with Acrobat Standard also.

"Optimize Scanned PDF" to shrink filesize

It works great! But I have about a terabyte's worth of PDFs that were accidentally scanned as grayscale and I need to optimize away the huge file sizes. Is there any way I can programmatically run this operation on multiple files? Perhaps an API that gives me access to the functionality of "Optimize Scanned PDF"?

I am looking for the same thing, I have seen screenshots of Acrobat 7 Pro that has "scanned pages" within PDF Optimizer.
However Acrobat 8 Pro which i have doesn't seem to have any option for "optimize scanned pages" under the batch processing tool, even under "output options>pdf optimizer" where I would expect for it to be, or under preflight.

Optimize Scanned PDF in batch mode?

I see 'OCR' as an option for batch commands, but there's no 'Optimize Scanned PDF'. Yes I can call the Optimizer in the Output options, but it doesnt reduce the file size like like 'Optimize Scanned PDF' does. I've tried different settings in the Optimizer but I cant come up with whatever 'Optimize Scanned PDF' does.
I cant understand why Adobe did not put this command as an option to run in batch mode.
Is there any way to run this command through Javascript? I'm trying different options.

Acrobat 9 Pro and Pro Extended offer "Optimize Scanned PDF" as an "out of the box" sequence.
There's no Adobe JavaScript mechanism for this.
Be well...

OPTIMIZE SCANNED PDF PROBS Acrobat Pro 9

"Optimize Scanned PDF" option under DOCUMENT seems to do a great job, only problem is that it seems to take parts of the document and overlap itself. The source PDF is fine. But the result always have these overlaps.
The only way I can describe it is that after optimization it looks like when 2 pages feed in a fax or copier machine and you get part of one document over the other. This happens with single and multipage PDFs. Anybody know how to fix this??

Thanks apangasa, but the link you provided is for the Windows version.
"*Acrobat X Pro is available as a software trial for Windows® users only. A trial version of Acrobat X Pro for Mac OS is currently not available. However, the full version of Acrobat X Pro for Mac OS is available for purchase."
Not sure I want to buy something without the opportunity to test it, especially with all the problems I've had. But if the reports are that it solves issues with 9, I might bite the bullet. I guess, depending on the retailer, I could return it if the issues persist.

Automation of optimize scanned pdf

Hi,
We have a requirement of compressing pdfs using Acrobat. We used to do it manually with an action by invoking "Optimize Scanned PDF". However since the amount of pdf to be compressed has grown exponentially we are planning to automate this task. Is there any way of achieving this like from IAC or through any programming language without human intervention.Or do I need any other software/plugin to achieve this task
Thanks

No answer ?? At least any suggestions would be helpful ..

How do you modify the web.xml to lock down the pages from a user role

how do you modify the web.xml to lock down the pages from a user role

I'll make a stab at your question:
The following is an example of where a URL is protected within a web.xml deployment descriptor. In this example, the URL /protectedA within the application is protected:

<security-constraint>
<web-resource-collection>
<web-resource-name>protectedA</web-resource-name>
<url-pattern>/protectedA</url-pattern>
</web-resource-collection>

<auth-constraint>
<role-name>sr_developer</role-name>
</auth-constraint>
</security-constraint>

Can we lock down the system for BW object and not bex objects

Hello,
I have a question about object changeability. We want to lock down the BW production system but leave it open for adhoc query. Can we lock down the BW system only for few objects like Cubes, ODS, Infoobjects, Infosets, Multiproviders, and keep the system open for Bex objects like Query, varaibles and also for Infopackges and DTP's.
Which tcode can we use for this ?
Thanks,

hi, usaully production system will be non changeable for all objects.. but as far as SAP BW is concerned we can make certain objects changeable by setting as follows..
in production go to RSA1 - Transport Connection, select Object changeability button from tool bar, here you will find a list of objects which can be made changeable in a closed system.. just click on required objects and set it to Everything Changeable..

Is it possible to lock down the _vti_bin and _layouts pages with a wildcard option.

Hi all,
A client of mine is running an internet facing sharepoint site. I have managed to lock down the _vti_bin and _layouts pages users for anonymous by using the following entries in my main web.config file:
<location path="_layouts">
      <system.web>
        <authorization>
          <deny users="?" />
        </authorization>
      </system.web>
    </location>
and
<location path="_vti_bin">
      <system.web>
        <authorization>
          <deny users="?" />
        </authorization>
      </system.web>
    </location>
But this is only ok for the root site collection. Is there a way to lock down all site collections, including sub sites with a type of wildcard entry?
Due to the nature of the clients business, they will be creating many site collections and subsites. I am trying to find a scalable way to manage this. To add an entry for every new site collection or subsite that gets created on the fly does not seem like
the most manageable solution.
Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Hi Sachin,
Thank You very much for the feedback. The info to secure system pages from authenticated FBA users is very helpful and I will definitely implement it. With reference to your second post. This is actually the information I used to lock down my
sites from anonymous users. Applying this method I noticed that you needed to put an entry for every single site collection and sub site collection, e.g. if I ONLY had a site collection at
https://me.myserver.com then the following entries in the web.config would secure the _vti_bin and _layouts folder from anonymous users:
<location path="_layouts">
      <system.web>
        <authorization>
          <deny users="?" />
        </authorization>
      </system.web>
    </location>
and
<location path="_vti_bin">
      <system.web>
        <authorization>
          <deny users="?" />
        </authorization>
      </system.web>
    </location>
But lets say I added another site collection at
https://me.myserver.com/sites/mysitecollection I would have to add the following entries to the web.config file to secure it from anonymous users:
<location path="sites/mysitecollection/_layouts">
      <system.web>
        <authorization>
          <deny users="?" />
        </authorization>
      </system.web>
    </location>
and
<location path="sites/mysitecollection/_vti_bin">
      <system.web>
        <authorization>
          <deny users="?" />
        </authorization>
      </system.web>
    </location>
Now this method might be manageable if you are only gonna have 5 or 10 site or subsite collections. My client will have 30, 40, 50, who knows how many. This is why I am trying to find a more manageable way of locking these sites down.
You can imagine what my web.config will look like eventually and the admin involved in continuously adding these entries to the web.config file to keep it safe from anonymous users.

Optimize scanned PDF for ONLY PDF FILES in a folder?

Using the Action Wizard to batch optimize scanned documents. When selecting a folder, how can we only optimize the PDF files and skip over conversion of all other file types (JPG, TIF, DOC)? Currently it is converting all files in the folder to PDF, but we only want to optimize the ones which are already PDF.
Thanks!
ATC

Figured that would be the only choice... I will use Robocopy to copy the entire folder structure and only *.pdf files, then optimize, then copy back and overwrite existing files. Hopefully Adobe will have a way to filter filetypes in their next release.

Optimize Scanned PDF Options

Hi
I am scanning large A1 documents as colour PDFs and I need to reduce the filesize and also clean up the image by removing all the background noise in the image but keeping the detail. I used the optimize pdf function on the old version of Acrobat I had which was 7. Now I am upgraded to 10 these options are no longer working for me. I am not getting a reduced filesize and I no longer get a nice white background when optimizing. It seems a few crucial options are missing from the settings in Acrobat 7. Background removal is set to high but it just isn't working. For now I am stuck with using the reduce filesize save option which doesn't reduce it enough or remove the background noise. Can anyone help?
Steve

These are the settings from Acrobat 7 I am trying to replicate:
Images Tab: Nothing Enabled
Scanned Pages Tab: Optimize compression of pages - Ticked (Full High Quality Setting)
Deskew - Automatic
Background Removal - High
Edge Shadow Removal - Cautious
Despeckel - Medium
Descreen - Automatic
Halo Removal - On
Fonts Tab: Nothing Enabled
Transparency Tab: Flatten Transparency - NOT Ticked
Discard Objects Tab: Discard All Alternate Images - Ticked
Clean Up Tab: Object Compression Options - Compress Document Structure selected
Use Flate to encode streams that are not encoded - Ticked
In streams that use LZW encoding, use Flate instead - Ticked
Remove invalid bookmarks - Ticked
Remove invalid links - Ticked
Remove unreferenced named destinations - NOT Ticked
Optimize the PDF for fast web view - Ticked

How do I lock down the wifi network?

There are 3 things you should do to "lock down" your network.
1. Change the default administration password. The default is password or password1.
2. Change the SSID and set to not broadcast.
3. Set the security to WPA-psk or WPA2-psk and pick a password key.
To do this, log in to the router by opening your internet program and type 192.168.1.1 in to the address bar. Type admin and the password into the login page. Once logged in, click on "wireless settings". Click on "basic settings". From there you can change the SSID and turn off WEP. Once that is done, click apply. Now click on "advanced settings". From this page you can select your security type, set the password key (recommend a sentence that is easy to remember) and turn SSID broadcast off. You can also set mac filtering for extra security. When done click apply. You should be all set.

How do I lock down the new iPAD for enterprise use?

We are planning to purchase iPADs for Enterprise and give it to a certain department. I would like to know if there is a way to lock it down the iPADs so that individual users can not download any apps on it other than what the IT team puts on the iPADs.
Thank you for your help and for our time,
Adana01

You will have to go to settings - restrictions - on each iPad and disable app installation.
They will not be able to install apps unless they know the restrictions access password.

Locking down the sound

Hello fellow macers!
I have multiple accounts setup on my Apple Macs, and most things work well, though I am struggling to solve one little gripe:
The managed users can turn up or down the volume as much as they want. I would like to stop this function totally as it is disruptive to a classroom environment.
Any ideas? I have used the com.apple.dock.plist file rights before, I had a quick peak for a sound file but no joy. Maybe I looked in the wrong place or there is another method?
Cheers guys.
Rob

Give them pencils to tap on their desks instead. That'll stop their ability to distract you with the computer's volume button.
All kidding aside (or is it?), output volume preferences are stored in "/Library/Preferences/.GlobalPreferences.plist". I'm not completely sure if it's easily locked down without potential future headaches, but that's where the setting is stored.
