Meta Data in document?

I know that when you create a document in Pages there will be metadata within the document as to when it was created, with what program, when it was last modified, who created it on what computer, etc.
If you send that document via an attachment I assume that metadata is transferred along with it.
But what happens if you were to simply copy and paste the text in that document and paste that in your email window? I'm guessing that any metadata is no longer part of the text and thus it would not be transmitted in the email. Correct? Thanks.

Correct.
The text is just text.

How to extract meta data of documents from SAP R/3

dear all,
i`am working in aproject where we connect the documents for SAP R/3 applications.we maintain our own repository for that purpose.it may be in bound or out bound according to customer needs.the meata data related to the documents is stored in SAP.our requirement now is to have that metadata available in our repository .can any one guide me how to write ABAP code for extracting meata data from SAP and enable even nonSAP users to have the access for the documents.
thanks in advance
ravi

Hi,
One way to do this is probably set a connection between SAP Database and an external database and store the meta data into external database from where a non-sap user will have an eccess to the data.
Steps required are :
1. we have to involve basis team also in that.
2. they will make one entry
in DBCON table
(that entry will point to secondary database/external database)
(suppose the name of this secondary connection is HRCON)
3. Also they will make connection string
in application server.
4. After that,
we should have
the table definition in SAP dd dictionary
and also
the same defintion
in the external database.
5. now in abap code,
we have to use like this.
DATA: mydbcon(30) TYPE c.
mydbcon = 'HRCON'.
INSERT ydev_msg_cur CONNECTION (mydbcon)
FROM msg_cur .
<b>Hope this helps.
Please mark helpful answer.</b>

Pass meta data on to material?

Hi,
I wonder if it's possible to pass on meta data from document classification to material classification. I tried using the hierarchy functionality but I only managed to assign classes with the same class type to each other.
Does anyone have a suggestion?
What I'm trying to do is to pass e.g. weight from the CAD system through the CAD interface to the DIR and then on to the material, batch etc.
Best regards,
Kristoffer Pehrson

Hi Kristoffer,
In object link of SAP DMS there are two objects material master and class, these two may help you.

Meta data values getting cleared from a document

Hi,
I am having a document library with some word(.docx) documents which has quick parts in the documents. The meta data are displayed in the quick part. When the document is downloaded to desktop and uploaded to another document libray the meta data in
quick parts is getting cleared.I need to retain the data in the quick part. I came to know that by using site columns we can solve this issue. But as we cant change the existing sharepoint site it is not possible to use site columns. Can anybody help
me on this?
Thanks in Advance.
Rahul.

Hi Rahul,
Did you add the Managed Metadata column value to the document through the quick parts?
Per my test, if I downloaded and uploaded the document to another library, then the values of the managed metadata column added through the quick parts in the document were not cleared.
I recommend to check if there are same fields added in the quick parts in the two libraries and the field does not contain data in the other library for the document, so the value is cleared.
Could you please provide more details about the two library and the content type used?
Best regards.
Thanks

Meta Data Documents

Hi,
I can access a document attached to a query or web template by using the format:
<A href="/SAP/BW/DOC/META/FLDMETA/ZWT_PUR_100E" target=_blank > Executive Dashboard Overview</A>
Is there any way to look at (get a list of) all of the documents that are meta data documents?
Thanks!

No such directory or location has been found.. We are looking for the location where documents are stored that are attached to queries or templates.
Any ideas basis people? Are they maybe located in a directory in the BDS or something similar?

Filename into meta data

I'd like to be able to add the filename into the meta data (File info) automatically on all the documents we work on. The reason being our client changes the file name and when they return the pdf to us for amends I have little or no way of locating the file amongst 25,000 documents.

If you unzip this link:
http://www.zenodesign.com/forum/MetaTitle.zip
and copy the script to your scripts folder (Applications ▸ Adobe InDesign CC 2014 ▸ Scripts ▸ Scripts Panel), then open a file and run the script you'll see that the file name gets copied to the meta data Document Title and the file gets saved.
So you could open Keyboard Shortcuts>Scripts find the script and give it the Command-S key command.

Rewriting "Save to" add meta data tag at time of save

What I am trying to achieve is this,
When I save a file at the moment I select Save As using the shortcut keys.
However I want to automatically add some meta data to the file every time. So I would write a simple action within photoshop.
So File info
then Description Tag
Author (me) and maybe Author title (photographer)
Then the next part of the script would be in invoke the "Save as" Command, BUT ITS IMPORTANT TO NOTE I DON'T WANT IT TO AUTOMATICALLY SAVE. it needs to jst put the prompt on the screen so that filename type etc can be filled in manually.
Then once the script is made I can assign the keystroke CMD Shift S to this script, hide the save as function in the keyboard shortcuts/ menu items.
Then every time I go to save it would add the meta tags I need as I work?
This is the sort of data I want to save,
var idsetd = charIDToTypeID( "setd" );
    var desc11 = new ActionDescriptor();
    var idnull = charIDToTypeID( "null" );
        var ref3 = new ActionReference();
        var idPrpr = charIDToTypeID( "Prpr" );
        var idFlIn = charIDToTypeID( "FlIn" );
        ref3.putProperty( idPrpr, idFlIn );
        var idDcmn = charIDToTypeID( "Dcmn" );
        var idOrdn = charIDToTypeID( "Ordn" );
        var idTrgt = charIDToTypeID( "Trgt" );
        ref3.putEnumerated( idDcmn, idOrdn, idTrgt );
    desc11.putReference( idnull, ref3 );
    var idT = charIDToTypeID( "T   " );
        var desc12 = new ActionDescriptor();
        var idCptn = charIDToTypeID( "Cptn" );
        desc12.putString( idCptn, """Description""" );
        var idByln = charIDToTypeID( "Byln" );
        desc12.putString( idByln, """Author""" );
        var idBylT = charIDToTypeID( "BylT" );
        desc12.putString( idBylT, """Author Title""" );
        var idObjN = charIDToTypeID( "ObjN" );
        desc12.putString( idObjN, """Document Title""" );
        var idCprN = charIDToTypeID( "CprN" );
        desc12.putString( idCprN, """Copyright Notice""" );
        var idURL = charIDToTypeID( "URL " );
        desc12.putString( idURL, """Copyright Info URL""" );
    var idFlIn = charIDToTypeID( "FlIn" );
    desc11.putObject( idT, idFlIn, desc12 );
executeAction( idsetd, desc11, DialogModes.NO );}

After your first scan you need to click the + sign at the 7 o'clock position.

Live text to Paths Meta Data

This request originated on another list.
The attributes/notes can be used to add text meta-data to objects, which has been around for a long time and is very helpful.
I would love Illus/InDesign to automatically write the font details (font family and or other formatting) to the outlined paths when text is converted from live editable text to outlined vector paths.
There is nothing worse than being given an outlined file as the only data by a client and then asked to make text changes or to match the font for use in a new job.
A very helpful person named Rick Gordon gave me some help in doing this via AppleScript (see below) - however it would be good if this was hard wired into Illus and InDesign so that file originators would tag the font data to the paths when they first outline the editiable text.
SCRIPT:
tell application "Adobe Illustrator"
tell document 1
set storyText to text of story of selection
set fontName to name of text font of text of story of selection
tell selection
tell storyText
set propList to {fontName, return, size, return, leading, return, tracking,
return, rotation}
end tell
set convertedText to convert to paths
set note of convertedText to propList as text
end tell
end tell
end tell

Make sure that the file has a .html or another known file extension to make sure that the server recognizes it as an HTML file.
The server may send unknown files automatically as text plain.

ANSI X12 meta data availability in conversion agent??

Hello,
Is there a provision for availability of ANSI X12 meta data in SAP conversion agent. We are trying to process EDI orders using the X12 INDUSTRY standard. Please advise.
-Kris

hi,
SAP Conversion Agent together with SAP Net Weaver, enables to automate complex integration activities for a multitude of data and document formats. These include unstructured and partially structured documents such as Office files, data streams, printing applications, and other application-specific formats.
Easily integrate unstructured and semi-structured data into SAP Net Weaver Process Integration using the Conversion Agent.
Conversion Agent dynamically converts unstructured messages from   Microsoft Word,Excel,PDF plain text.
Semi-structured formats such as HL7,SWIFT,HIPA, ANSI X12 and COBOL to   PI understandable SOAP XML.
          So that it helps to easily integrate the information need into the back-end systems. Conversion can also be used as the reverse process to convert from XML to unstructured or semi-structured formats

How to deal with FLV with missing meta data?

I have and will get flvs in the future with missing meta
data.
I think for the most part the meta data that is missig is the
file length.
The exact files that are not working on our server are
working on some other companies FMS.
They must have some workaround actionscript on the server or
configuration that is making it work.
I'd like to know that workaround or that configuration
change. That would be the ideal fix.
I already know how to fix the FLV after I download it but I
wanted to know if there is another way to deal with this problem.
One were I can leave the FLVs alone.
Is there some serverside actionscript that would tell FMS the
length of the movie or change the configuration of fms to deal with
this somehow.
Any ideas?

If you are using the same database and referencing two tables then you dont need special configuration for it. You use single jdbc adapter. In ESR you create two statment structure one for each table. This is one option. The second option is use join statment and write query and in this case one statment data structure.
Please go through the help sap link for the jdbc document structure.
http://help.sap.com/SAPHELP_NW04s/helpdata/EN/2e/96fd3f2d14e869e10000000a155106/content.htm
The second option can be done using the below structure.
<StatementName>
<anyName action=u201D SQL_QUERYu201D >
<access>SQL-String with optional placeholder(s)</access>
<key>
<placeholder1>value1</placeholder1>
<placeholder2>value2<placeholder2>
</key>
</anyName >
</StatementName>

Adding a custom meta data field which lists out content id based on query

How can we add a custom meta data filed which lists out content id based on query like dDocType <matches> `AssociatedProduct`?
Or other alternative would be to have a custom metadata field such that it allows selection of content id using link wizard which we typically use in site studio. It would be preferable to have this second option as it is user friendly. Can we do this on a check-in screen?

Quotes around meta data

Whenever I create a PDF document from within Microsoft Word with the Acrobat toolbar adobe adds in quote marks around my keywords. My tags/keywords in Microsoft do not have any quote marks and all are separated by commas. How do I fix this? I do not want adobe adding in quote marks automatically.
I have Adobe Acrobat Standard XI and am using Microsoft Word 2013. The problem also exists with Acrobat Standard X and Microsoft Word 2010.?
Can adobe please advise on how to fix this problem?
Thank you.

In Microsoft Word there are document properties. One of them is called "tags". When in Microsoft Word when I go to the adobe ribbon and click on the command "Create PDF" it converts the Microsoft Word Document into an Adobe PDF file. It also imports/brings over the document properties. "Tags" is brought over into the adobe PDF file in the meta data as "Keywords".
For example, if I have the following information in the "Tags" property in Microsoft Word: car, truck, vehicle, SUV
Now when it gets converted adobe brings it over into the metadata field of keywords but displays it as: "car, truck, vehicle, SUV"
Adobe adds into the quotes. Does not matter if I use semi colons instead. It has something to do with how adobe interprets the information from the Microsoft Word document. The metadata I am talking about for Adobe exists in the PDF file under "Document Properties", then in the description tab it mentions the fields of: Title: Author: Subject: Keywords: and there is a button also yet for Additional Metadata.

PDF & meta data

Is it possible using intermedia to access any meta data in for instance pdf documents rather than just the content ?
Cheers

Lukas,
usually it is save to remove any Metadata for the purpose of viewing a PDF file.
Metadata contain additional information on top of what you see on screen and might make sense if, for example, you need to know where and when an image in the PDF was taken. Such information, usually stored with the image, can be keep attached to the image when creating a PDF for later retrival.

Peter

Property Meta data fixing

Hi,
I am created a one property meta data.
if i am adding in all groups it reflects all the groups.
But my requirement is i want show the property in a perticular floder only.
Ex:/documents/Test.
And next thing what is use of
Floder validity pattern
Document validity pattern.
Thank you,

Hi Patrick,
you have to be very careful when setting the validity pattern.
First of all you have to make sure you use "/" and not "\" as in Martin's example.
Also, you have to take care about the upper and lower case. You have to use the cases used in the folder ids.
The best way to get the correct folder path to use, is if you check the folder's details -> properties, and check the path in the access link. You can grab the part in the Explorer URL behind "/navigation" and before "?".
Furthermore you can use the same entry for the "Folder Validity Patterns" and for the "Document Validity Patterns". The first one influences if the property is shown when you are maintaining folder properties, the second one when you are maintaining document properties.
Hope that clarifies a bit,
Robert
