Merging SAPscript documentation into an MS WORD document

Dear gurus,
our SAP add-on products are consisting of quite a lot of single programs each that we are maintaining and translating the standard SAPscript documentation for.
Separately we maintain and translate manuals for our products in MS WORD where we add a lot of screenshots from our applications.
To a certain extent the maintenance of the texts as well as their translation is double work that we would love to get rid off. Downloading texts from SAPscript to RTF/PDF/ASCII does not seem to offer any real solution to our "synchronization" problem. The same goes for ideas (that were already brought up) like writing VBA-functions to retrieve data from SAP (we don't have too much VBA know-how in our company and we do not want to program our a...s off for that). Does anybody have a good idea how we could achieve that?
Thanks a lot in advance
Andreas

Open the PDF in Acrobat and use File > Properties.
Go to Security.
Change to "No security" - here is where you will enter the control
password.
Now save the file.
This unprotected file can now be copied and pasted etc.

  • Read Write Data into a MS Word document

    The requirement I am fullfilling directly specifies the need to write data into a Microsoft Word Document and if Necessary, Read Back data from a Microsoft Word Document. The data will be simple text but as time goes on I anticipate the systems engineers may expand the requirement. I want to cross one bridge at a time so I am just concentrating on the text issue. I must do it from within a stand-alone application. Not through a server, not through ASP, not through a browser, just a stand alone application. It appears from my own investigation of the JAVA API that this is not possible. Regrettably, I am only a day or so away from switching to C# or VB to get this job done. My first question is
    1. Can Java Do this?
    2. If not, does Sun Microsystems have any plans to add this capabiliy?
    3. Can we make recommendations to Sun to add this capability to JAVA?

    1. Can Java Do this?Java can do anything but there is no built-in ability to do just that.
    2. If not, does Sun Microsystems have any plans to add
    this capabiliy?
    3. Can we make recommendations to Sun to add this
    capability to JAVA?Very doubtful! MS Office document formats are not completely open to the public - and they are weird! Supporting this capability would probably require an agreement with Microsoft and it would mean you had to change the API for every time Microsoft chooses to change the document formats.
    But there are some open source tools that claim to be rather good at reading and writing MS Office files. Take a look at this one:

  • How can I convert a pdf document written in the Cyrillic (Russian) script into a MS Word document in the Cyrillic script?

    I wish to convert a pdf document using a very small font from Cyrillic script into an MS Word document likewise using Cyrillic script. Then I could zoom up the size of the pdf document's script. Is there any way  this can be done?

    Why can't you just zoom in Adobe Reader?

  • When I download Word documents in Firefox, I can't save them as ".doc" and/or ".docx" files. They go to "recent documents" as ".lnk" files and I can't even cut-n-paste the info into a new Word document to fix the problem

    Details are covered in the question. There is some sort of bug in downloading files in Firefox 4.0, downloaded files simply won't exist outside of "Recent files", which upload as ".lnk". I don't seem to have this issue with IE9.

    Not in MAC mail.  In yahoo mail.  I fiddled around with it after posting, and discovered that if I saved the entire email to the desktop in HTML(?), and then opened the email, I was able to open the attachment as well.  This is a pretty roundabout way to open an attachment.  I'd much rather be able to do it in one step.  Any idea why this is happening?  A more direct way to fix?  I am not a computer person.  Just stumbled on the idea of saving it in different format.  Thanks.

  • ITunes: I can no longer copy a playlist into a Pages (Word) document by using select all edit copy edit  paste.  Why won't this work now?  All I get when I paste is a series of Speaker symbols.

    I want to creat a copy of my playlists onto a Pages page.  I selected all the entries in the playlist, then did Edit > Copy > Edit > Paste.  I've done this lots of times before and it was fine; now when I paste all I get is a series of Speaker symbols, no text with of the playlist songs.  Does anyone else have this problem?  Thanks.

  • Forced open word document when value for merged field required in document is blank

    Is there any way that I can make a word 2010 document open? The word document contains fields which are linked to a window form fields which have values input by users which then are saved to the database and also merged into the document's fields. In other
    word, when the controls (per example a textbox) in the windows form have no value input into them, the word document will not open.
    Thank you in advance

    Hello Amy12,
    Your requirement is still not so clear to me. So I assume you just want to load a Word Document inside WinForm application:
    You can refer this article
    http://www.codeproject.com/Articles/3582/Word-Control-for-NET
    By the way, webbrowser control can also help you open a word document, see MSDN article here:

  • Export and split mail merge to Word Documents

    Hi there,
    I have a mail merge which creates one very long Pages document. I need to split the pages document into separate MS Word documents. Any suggestions?

    I should specify that I am dealing with a large number of documents and am looking for an automated solution. Essentially I want to do a mail merge but end up with individual MS Word documents for each person in the mail merge.
    So if I have 3 people:
    Alex
    Bob
    Cathy
    And I have one document which gets mail merged, I wanted to end up with
    Alex.doc
    Bob.doc
    Cathy.doc

  • How can I drag multiple photos from iPhoto into a Word Document

    I'm creating a collage of photos for a friend and in order to get the photos to the right size and print them without trouble I need to drag all of the photos from a certain album in iPhoto into an empty word document. Is there a way to do this? If not, why not?

    It's best to drag one photo at a time from the open iPhoto window into the open Word document window.  Resize the photo.  Then drag the next one and resize.
    If you have iWork a better solution is to use Pages.  That way you can resize the drag the photos into any location on page, even overlapping other photos, whereas in Word it has to be on a separate line or small enought to fit two on a line. You can access the iPhoto Library from the Media Browser in Pages without iPhoto  having to be open.

  • 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!

  • Outputting images in word documents

    DB Version: Oracle 11g XE
    Host: Windows 2003 Server - 32 Bit
    I have a current application that produces MS Word Documents from host based templates and stores them in the database for later printing. This works nicely however I would also like to be able to embed some small images into the MS Word document. The images are based on user profiles so need to be dynamically managed and merged into the MS Word document.
    These images may be stored either on the file system also (alongside the MS Word templates) or within WWV_FLOW_FILES (?) and I just need to work out how to merge the two files into one output.
    Any assistance will be greatly appreciated.
    Regards,
    Mike

    Hi,
    I'm actually thinking whether the issue is related to Office version. What are the versions of Office on your laptop and workstation?
    Based on the description, the issue doesn't occur if the document is saved as .doc, it only occurs if the document is saved as .docx, so basically we can say your workstation doesn't support .docx well. Is it a version prior to Office 2007?
    Regards,
    Melon Chen

  • I have updated OSX  10.7 Lion. to find Power PC Apps are no longer supported. I can no longer access my Word documents nor can I access my Entourage Emal files. Any suggestions?

    I am not at all smart when it comes iMac App's.
    Having upgraded to 10.7 Lion, find that I cannot open any word documents , nor can I gain access to my Entourage email folders. I am now left feeling thatthis is really not my era.
    I am an old guy attempting to keep up the young guy's technology and no longer have  idea what I am  doing.
    I have managed to start anew with Mail.
    But have no idea how to find or proceed without the  now unsupported Microsoft Word application.
    Where can I find  a replacement for Word, and how may I ever be able to get into my old Word Documents?
    Since upgrading from Snow leopard I find that I am unable to get  my Seagate hard drive selected  as a location for  Time Machine back-upswhen running through  System Preferences.
    Any help on these issues would be greatly appreciated
    Please excuse any lack of ettiquitte in this submission, I am new to this culture.

    Thanks Barney, I am now using pages to open exisiting Word documents. and then saving in the new format. I then trash the old incompatable (.doc) file.
    This works OK, but it will be a time consuming operation to be repearted on each file that I use.
    Is there any shortcut to enable sync all of the .doc files to Page?
    I have not managed to recover Entourage email files . But now use Mail application, which is fine.
    Encountered problems are ongoing.
    I have an Epson Epson Stylus Photo Rx430 printer.
    Since upgrading to OSX10.7 print files do not load to the printer. The Epson job box shows data is being sent to printer but it the task is never completed.
    I take this to be a Printer  Driver issue.
    Today, I have been in contact  with Epson Printer support, enquiring if they have any driver updates for RX430 that would be compatable with OSX10.7 Lion.
    I was notified by Epson that they do not have any drivers for any of their printers for the new OSX 10.7.
    How may I  continue using my now unsupported Epson printer?
