Merge pdf to existing and re-index

Here's what I'd like to do using JS.
User creates a word document and prints to a PDF. This document is a single memo or "directive".
I need to automate the process of adding this document to a binder and then re-indexing the catalog for the binder AND then add a bookmark for the new document.
Any down and dirty way to do this?
TIA,
Robert

If by binder you mean PDF Package, you can use Doc.importDataObject() to add a PDF to an existing package, since in the current PDF version the "packaged" PDFs are just data objects.
What do you mean by re-index?
You can add a bookmark by acquiring the Doc.bookmarkRoot property which gives you access to the createChild() and insertChild() methods.

Merging PDFs and then saving them as one file in Leopard

Would someone please tell me how I can merge PDF files into one PDF file. I have been able to drag and drop them together in Preview. I would love to be able to save the merged files into one file. Any ideas. I have read a lot online about this possibility in Snow Leopard, but I can't seem to save the dang file.
Help.

Open the first PDF. Open the tray so you can see the file on the left. Drag the other PDFs onto the first file in the tray. You can't just drag into the tray window anymore, you have to drag onto the file itself to merge. Save the file with new name.
Macmost has a good podcast on this subject that came out about a week ago. Shows other PDF tricks with Preview as well.

BI Publisher Merge PDF and print documents through Java

We need our reports in merged and printed (collated). Is this possible with BI Publisher . If yes, how?
The reports will be called from Java. So far I found the Web Service provided by BI Publisher handy in printing and creating reports but not combine them.
Thanks in advance.

Scanned and OCR'd PDF--OCR content is not indexed

I am setting up a new SharePoint 2013 install, and have put a handful files in a doc library to test search. The content has been indexed, and I can find the content inside many files and file types without issue--including "native" PDF files.
However, it doesn't seem to index the content of a scanned and OCR'd (text with image overlay) PDF. I have verified that the text is indeed in the OCR text by copying and pasting phrases, and I also confirmed that the crawl log shows the file as successfully
crawled. The filename is also indexed.
So... it would seem that the SharePoint 2013 indexer does not index the text in scanned and OCR'd PDF files. Am I missing something? Can anyone else confirm this behavior?
Thanks!
Ryan

To clarify:
- From what I've read, iFilters can still be installed, but as Mikael said, they can't override the built-in file format handlers in 2013. 2013 has a built-in handler for PDFs, whereas previous versions required a PDF iFilter for indexing PDFs that have
text content. If one could install the Adobe PDF iFilter in 2013 successfully, it would resolve the issue in this thread, but PDF iFilters don't work in 2013.
- Aquaforest makes a product that OCRs PDF files. That takes an image-only PDF and makes the
file searchable, but it is not an indexer. Rather, it enables an index engine to make a big
collection of OCR'd PDF files searchable via a search engine.
- The built-in PDF handler in 2013 does index native PDFs. It does
not index OCR'd PDF files.
So, that's the issue for which I submitted the ticket to Microsoft. In our case, we don't need to OCR our PDF files--they are already OCR'd. But they don't show up in searches.
(Regarding Aquaforest... I've talked with someone there previously--for a non-SharePoint DMS--and they seem to make a cool product, but I don't have any personal experience using it.)

How to merge pdf in db, with data in db and serve as PDF doc to browser

Hi,
I have a requirement as:
On an ebusiness suite webpage user clicks on a hyperlink.
This downloads a merged pdf form, as:
a. Retrieve pdf document from fnd_lobs
b. Retrieve the data to be merged from a database table in the format merge_field_name, merge_field_value
c. Merge the data and the pdf on the fly.
d. Return the merge pdf file to the webbowser
I have never used XML etc, and browsing metalink etc, it seems the using XML Publisher may be the best way to go.
So, I would appreciate it if I could have the following answers:
1. Is XML publisher the correct tool to use for this, or is their another technology that may be better suited.
2. As we have a number of ebusiness suite applications licensed, would we need to buy an additional license for XML publisher.
3. If I am on the right track, then any pointers on how to start.
Thanks in advance.
Mark

Hi Mark
1. XMLP will do this for you with a little code.
2. As long as the data for the documents came from the delivered EBS schema (incl flexfields) i.e. not from a custom table. Then you are within the EBS license terms and there would be no extra kicense to purchase.
3.
a. You will need to extract the PDF from fnd_lobs as a PDF document and out it somewhere temporarily.
b. Write the extract and template to format the data into PDF ... this is basic XMLP suff covered in the user guide and the XMLP pages on OTN.
c. You now have your fnd_lobs PDF and the generated one, you can now combine them into a single document using an API. The PDF bookbinder API is the most poweful but there are others available too ... check the user guide for PDFBookBinder and FormProcessor.
d. then you'll need to either stream the resulting PDF to browser yourself or you can use the XMLP OA Framework common region and embed it inside a page.

How: MS Word to .pdf by Command P, hitting the PDF button, and then the button for "save as Adobe pdf"
I didn't have this problem at all on prior versions of Adobe on my PC.   This isn't a Mac attack, is it?

Is it possible to pick up an existing PDF without permissions and give it permissions?

There is a product in the field that will convert JES2 output from the mainframe to a PDF. However, the product does not have the abilility to set permissions correctly for comment and markup features to be used in Adobe Reader. The plan was to have the product email the PDF's to a Server that would be running a version of Acrobat and have Acrobat set the persmissions. So, I would need the capability to pick up a current non-permissioned PDF with Acrobat and set the permissions to demonstrate that capability prior to ordering a trial of the product in the field. I have tried to do that but it doesn't seem to work or I am not doing it right. How do I do that? Running Acrobat 7.0 PRO and Adobe Reader 9.0.

Thanks George. We are basically trying to evolve our Mainframe developers off of the need for continuous forms print. H&W's JES2WEB product will take JES2 output and convert it to PDF's. Giving each developer the ability to do markup and comment features would be great in that evolution, but unfortunately JES2WEB can't set the permissions. That's why I was looking to have a server do the permissions settings for the PDF's produced by JES2WEB. The first time I called Adobe support they indicated that Acrobat should be able to do what I was asking. Do you think Adobe's LiveCycle would be able to work in this manner from a licensing standpoint or is every desktop expected to be Acrobat licensed to get these features? The latter would most likely be cost prohibitive.

Convert and merge pdf's. Automator?

I'm looking once again to see if Automator can help me with a project:
Ongoing task:
1) Convert Contracts in Word to PDF
2) Merge each contract with signature page
Either with some version of Acrobat, or some software specific to the task.
I envision a watched folder where these might be dropped, then automator would oversee the process automatically.
If not, any suggestions on what would work for this?

plansman wrote:
How do I check to see the pixel size or resolution?
You would need image editing software such as Photoshop.
plansman wrote:Or can I just use this software to merge Pdf files I already have converted with other sofware?
That's probably your best bet. Create the pages with the images to be the same physical size in a different application such as InDesign, use Acrobat to print to PDF (or in the case of InDesign, export to PDF).

Problem with Mail Merge in Word 2007 and Outlook 2007

Hi,
I just found out about the function to generate mail merged PDFs and send them via email. I tried that using Outlook 2007 as the email client, but it seems to me that Acrobat generates RTF emails instead of plain text. That causes many email clients, except Outlook, just to display a file called winmail.dat instead of the actual PDF file.
I already checked the settings in Outlook and made sure that new mails are started in plain text mode. If I do this manually the email becomes plain test. But not automatically with Acrobat.
Does anybody have a solution on that? I'm using Adobe Acrobat 9.1.
Best regards,
Johannes

Hi andré, I guess the issue is coming from the fact that you selected "AllPartiesInvolved" and that may contain any numbers of entries. So when you test your webservice, you put a key and then get a result for that key, and in that case you might get "element1" until "element3" for example if there was 3 partners involved in you activity.
But, when you design your template, you don't have a key at that moment, so in the Web Service structure, you have "items" which stands for all the possible entries you might retrieve at runtime. I guess you could use an index in your template to specify which item you need, but this is quite hasardeous, so i would be you, I would not design my web service to use "AllPartiesInvolved" but rather a specific Partner type like contact person for instance.

Xavier

How to merge PDF/Word Doc with the Form I created?

Hi All,
Which software should I use to merger PDF/Word Doc with the form I created.
One more question is I want the form page to show up right next to the ending or in the middle of the word doc . How to manange the placement of the sections?
Please do let me know, its urgent.
Thanks and Regards,
Hari.

1) The option of creating the whole thing as a LiveCycle form means that you need to convert the Word document using LiveCycle Designer. The import utility won't preserve the fidelity of the Word document the way printing to the PDF print driver does. It will likely require a fair bit of tweaking in Designer to get it looking like you want. You will likely get frustrated, since Designer is not a word processor.
2) You can create PDF forms in Acrobat without launching LiveCycle Designer. While they look the same to a user as forms created with LiveCycle Designer, behind the scenes they are very different. When you create a form in Acrobat you overlay fields on top of an existing PDF document that you had previously created using the PDF print driver. There is an extensive scripting model for these "Acroforms". The technology pre-dates LiveCycle yet Adobe continues to improve the two forms models in parallel. In Acrobat, open a PDF and select tools-->forms-->show forms toolbar.
3) I recommend this option if it's feasible. I don't know what you mean by "doesn't show up in a flow". If you're going to use the form in Acrobat 7, then save it as Acrobat 7 compatible in LiveCycle Designer. This is one of the options in the Save As dialog of LiveCycle Designer.

PDF rewriter: concatinate/merge pdfs

I read this well written article: http://cqblueprints.com/xwiki/bin/view/CQ+FAQ/How+can+I+configure+the+PDF+rewriter
and was able to edit the file here: /libs/wcm/core/content/pdf/page2fo.xsl to convert my .html file to .pdf on the fly. But I have front and back cover pages which were created in InDesign and saved as .pdf files. I need to do this:
front.pdf + <myFileReWrite>.pdf + back.pdf    =>   <myFileReWrite>.pdf
front.pdf and back.pdf are uploaded to my digital asset and currently sit at:
   /content/dam/<someFolder>/front.pdf
   /content/dam/<someFolder>/back.pdf
Is there a way in CQ to merge these pdf files on the fly?
Thanks.

I don't think you can do that with page2fo.xls as this is not suppose to take existing pdf to combine it with one that is generated, so best is to generate the pdf as usually and then combine on the fly with pdfbox for example (http://java.dzone.com/news/merging-pdf%E2%80%99s-with-pdfbox).
You can probably intercept or overlay the existing mechanism of the rewritter to add your code as the rewritter is based on pipeline mechanism (http://sling.apache.org/site/rewriting-the-output-through-pipelines.html).

Yosemite: Preview Won't Manipulate or Merge PDFs

Using Yosemite 10.10 on 10-18-14 with a Macbook Pro Retina Early 2013, I can't manipulate PDFs using Preview 8.0. The PDF is not locked, and I have full read/write permission.
I can open a PDF. I can delete a page in a PDF. I can rotate a page in the PDF. However, I CAN'T move a page from one location to another within the same PDF. I CAN'T merge the contents of one PDF into another PDF.
When I try to move a page within a PDF a "hole" opens up between the pages (that slid apart to allow the page to be moved there) but the page is not moved to that location and the "hole" does not close up until the PDF is closed and reopened. When I drag the source PDF to the desired position inside the thumbnail on the left side of the recipient PDF, the thumbnail pages slide apart and the green + appears over the icon for the source PDF confirming that I want to add the PDF in that location. However when I release the mouse, the document springs back to its former location without being added. Unlike in an attempted page move, however, the thumbnails slide back together.
I have to manipulate PDFs all the time, and if anyone can tell me what I'm (suddenly) doing wrong, I would be most appreciative. I have Adobe Acrobat, so I can work around the problem, but Acrobat is slow and difficult to work with. Thanks in advance.

Hello!
I too am having problems with Preview 8.0 in Yosemite. Like others, I can not add a page or merge two PDFs or move pages around. VikingOSX indicated that this was no longer functionality in this version and that we should employ better PDF programs. Excuse me for saying so but that can't be true. The HELP system clearly indicates that you should be able to add a pdf file via the Edit > Insert > Page from File command. This command does exist in the UI. I can execute the command and navigate to the correct file and select it but nothing happens. It makes no sense that Apple would remove the ability to combine pdfs together. This seems like a legitimate bug. I will file a bug report.
Also, Preview is no longer meant to be just a viewer. It has really good capabilities for modifying PDFs that I use every day.
If anyone finds a solution to this problem I would appreciate it if you could let me know.
Thank you for reading.

Difference between sy-tabix and sy-index?

HI,
Here is a brief description of difference between SY_TABIX and SY_INDEX and using them with several conditions.
SY-TABIX
Current line of an internal table. SY-TABIX is set by the statements below, but only for index tables. The field is either not set or is set to 0 for hashed tables.
APPEND sets SY-TABIX to the index of the last line of the table, that is, it contains the overall number of entries in the table.
COLLECT sets SY-TABIX to the index of the existing or inserted line in the table. If the table has the type HASHED TABLE, SY-TABIX is set to 0.
LOOP AT sets SY-TABIX to the index of the current line at the beginning of each loop lass. At the end of the loop, SY-TABIX is reset to the value that it had before entering the loop. It is set to 0 if the table has the type HASHED TABLE.
READ TABLE sets SY-TABIX to the index of the table line read. If you use a binary search, and the system does not find a line, SY-TABIX contains the total number of lines, or one more than the total number of lines. SY-INDEX is undefined if a linear search fails to return an entry.
SEARCH <itab> FOR sets SY-TABIX to the index of the table line in which the search string is found.
SY-INDEX
In a DO or WHILE loop, SY-INDEX contains the number of loop passes including the current pass.
Hope this helps.
Thank you,
Pavan.

What is the difference between exists and in

hi all
if i have these queries
1- select ename from emp where ename in ( select ename from emp where empno=10)
and
2- select ename from emp where exists ( select ename from emp where empno=10)
what is the difference between exists and in is that only when i use in i have to bring the field name or what.... i mean in a complex SQL queries is it will give the same answer
Thanks

You get two entirely different result sets that may be the same. Haah! What do I mean by that.
SQL> select table_name from user_tables;
TABLE_NAME
BAR
FOO
2 rows selected.
SQL> select table_name from user_tables where table_name in (select table_name from user_tables where table_name = 'FOO');
TABLE_NAME
FOO
1 row selected.
SQL> select table_name from user_tables where exists(select table_name from user_tables where table_name = 'FOO');
TABLE_NAME
BAR
FOO
2 rows selected.So, why is this? the WHERE EXISTS means 'if the next is true', much like where 1=1 being always true and 1=2 being always false. In this case, where exists could be TRUE or FALSE, depending on the subquery.
WHERE EXISTS can be useful for something like testing if we have data, without actually having to return columns.
So, if you want to see if an employee exists you might say
SELECT 1 FROM DUAL WHERE EXISTS( select * from emp where empid = 10);
If there is a row in emp for empid=10, then you get back 1 from dual;
This is what I call an 'optimistic' lookup because the WHERE EXISTS ends as soon as there is a hit. It does not care how many - only that at least one exists. It is optimistic because it will continue processing the table lookup until either it hits or reaches the end of the table - for a non-indexed query.
