Missing Header in PDF From

I have used the assessment template to build my writable form and it looks great. But when I save it as a PDF, I lose the header. Also, the text areas fill in blue. How can I fix this.

Hi;
I am guessing that you used your own image in the Header and not the one in the Template - it is likely that this FAQ will describe your header issue:
http://forums.adobe.com/docs/DOC-4144
If that doesn't help let me know.
Regarding the blue boxes, that is done by Adobe Reader or Acrobat to show that those are fillable form fields, it can be turned on or off in Reader/Acrobat but you of course can't control that setting in your form fillers Acrobat/Reader.
Thanks,
Josh

Saved PDF from Stored Procedure missing application item in report header

I am able to create and save the pdf from a stored procedure however the application item that contains the date is blank in the saved pdf. Report title displays correctly when running via APEX. I have tried to set this value with, apex_util.set_session_state('F111_DATE',sysdate); and also as a cookie owa_cookie.send('F11_DATE',to_char(sysdate,'Month DD, YYYY'));
and neither of these statements work. Example of code below...
vRequest := Utl_Http.begin_request(vReportUrl,'POST');
Utl_Http.set_header(vRequest, 'User-Agent', 'Mozilla/4.0');
owa_cookie.send('F11_DATE',to_char(sysdate,'Month DD, YYYY'));
apex_util.set_session_state('F111_DATE',sysdate);
vResponse := Utl_Http.get_response(vRequest);
Apex version 3.2/ 11g

How to show custom header in pdf generated from report

Hi,
I have created a report that is used to display Leave record of employees in an organization. After which it creates a pdf file and send it to respective HOD.
In this case I am trimming generated output and sendinf only required fields to the pdf.
When pdf is getting generated it shows program name as Title of that report.
I want to change this header to my own header along with some variable but not sure how I can do so.
I have also tried TOP-OF_PAGE but problem in this case is that I am still getting program name along with it.
To generate pdf I have used function :
call function 'CONVERT_ABAPSPOOLJOB_2_PDF'
    exporting
      src_spoolid   = spoolid
      no_dialog     = ' '
    importing
      pdf_bytecount = l_no_of_bytes
      pdf_spoolid   = l_pdf_spoolid
      btc_jobname   = l_jobname
      btc_jobcount = l_jobcount
    tables
      pdf           = l_pdfdata.
Then I had converted this pdf to Binary
call function 'QCE1_CONVERT'
    tables
      t_source_tab         = l_pdfdata
      t_target_tab         = lit_record
    exceptions
      convert_not_possible = 1
      others               = 2.
Then I had created subject matter and used FM : SO_NEW_DOCUMENT_ATT_SEND_API1: to send mail to respective HODs.
I tried dubbing it but couldn't get any variable which is holding program name.
Sorry for putting in wrong forum.
so Closing it from this forum and raising the same in ABAp-General forum.
How to change header of pdf in generated report
Edited by: gaur.yagyesh on Apr 16, 2010 4:03 PM

To make it more clear to my question.
I am using sun one webserver 6.0 sp6.
I need to enable custom header on the webserver so that any request having a custom http header coming to webserver should be captured by the webserver.

PDF has missing text when created from FM 9

My Software:
Windows XP Professional Version 2002 SP 3
FrameMaker 9.0p255
Adobe Acrobat 9 Pro Version 9.4.1
When generating a PDF document from FrameMaker, the PDF document has random missing text, including whole paragraphs, sentences and some text in tables. We have several FrameMaker books and they are all having the same issues. These books were fine when we last published updates within the last month and we have not made any changes to fonts.
When generating a PDF from FrameMaker, we always print the book to a postscript file first following these steps:
- Go to File > Print Book.
- Select the Adobe PDF printer.
- Select the Print to File option and specify a .ps filename.
- Select the Generate Acrobat Data option.
- Use Acrobat Distiller to convert the PS file to PDF.
Note that I also tried File > Save As PDF and got the same results.

Did you reboot after the hotfix? fwiw, other users on the forum have had difficulty with the hotfix not being installed correctly the first time around.
once you download the hotfix from MS you have to run the .exe, and then when it’s finished you have to reboot. Then check the Add or Remove programs in Control panel, and click the “show updates” button, then scroll way down to see the hotfixes, to be sure that #952909 is shown.
What fonts are you using in your documents? Specific type (PS, TT, OTF) and any other info you have (foundry, etc).
Do the "gaps" seem to occur when there are font changes in the document, e.g. when words in a sentence are bold or when a paragraph in a different weight (e.g. bold italic) follows, say, a "regular" text weight paragraph? As another test, can you highlight a segment of good+bad+good text in the PDF, do Control+c to copy it to the clipboard, then Control+v to paste it into a different file (Word, text editor, even another new FM document). Do the words of the "missing" text segments show up?
edit: the hotfix download process is a bit confusing; if I remember correctly it has to be requested, then MS sends a link to the download webpage, then the downloaded .exe has to be run.

After downloading a pdf from a website, how can I view the file in Safari 6.0.4 (just as I can in Safari 5.0.6)? I bet that it's simple, but I've missed something, somewhere, and a solution will be greatly appreciated.

Hello Kirk,
Thank's for your efforts, and I just wish that this was the solution. Unfortunately, it isn't because, after double-clicking on the pdf in the website, it simply "opens" in another Safari window as a black screen - the pdf is there, somewhere, but not visible (either as an icon, or as a document).
When I right-click in the black Safari window, where the file is supposed to be, the only option available to display the file is to "Open file in Internet Explorer" (which is not what I want to do). Other options include saving or printing the pdf, which I don't want until I've confirmed that it's the form that I want. The same options are offered if I right-click on the file icon in the website.
Any other suggestions, please?

Help me! converting to pdf from word, missing pictures and formating?

I wrote a book, was able to create a press quality pdf without any problem during my free trial of acrobat pro xi, now that I have made edits and have bought acrobat, everytime I create a pdf from this (large) word file, some of the images are missing, some text is blurry, and my formatting is off. It's maddening because it worked so easily before.
Any help is much appreciated.
Also, for a company that charges so much for their products that they basically have a monopoly on, it's very annoying that I can't get some sort of tech support on the phone and this appears to be my only option. VERY ANNOYING.
Anyhoo... thanks for any help from the forums/experts.
-Chris

I don't know what cause this and it's really annoying. I met the same problem when converting pdf from .docx file.
The solution is, re-save your .docx file (Word Document) into .doc file(Word 97-2004 Document) first. Then save the .doc file as pdf. It worked for me.

Table Header not Recurring - when Generate PDF from HTML with tables

Hello, It is not working as expected...and I'm not sure if the functionality is supported. Want to create PDF from html document. The html document contains a html table that typically contains a large number of rows. To make reading easier the html table used thead and tbody elements, and their children, so that when the table extends across pages when printed the header element recurs on each page. However, the header element is not recurring in the generated PDF document (it only occurs in the first row of the table). Just wondering if you have tried or used this functionality (created PDF from html with table with headers and the PDF included the table with recurring table header. And if so, did you do anything special to make it work. Thanks for any insight.

If there's a problem with that package, I suggest you speak to the developer of that package and ask them to investigate. It's not an Oracle supplied package so you are wrong to look for help here.

Missing images when printing to pdf from Word

When printing to pdf from MS Word 2003 in some cases textboxes and/or images disappear in the target PDF, depending on their position.
Word and Acrobat Standard are the latest updates. If the Word text is converted on a Mac the target pdf has the images present, so it looks like it's a Windows only problem. Any suggestions where to start looking for a fix?

You may have to turn on "display large images" in the preferences.

Creating PDF from File, missing Settings

Acrobat Professional. 6.0.
I never used Acrobats "Create PDF from file", as in my MS Office 2000 there was "Acrobat - Convert to Adobe PDF" menu item with the possibility to change joboptions settings.
My current MS Office 2007 now has its own PDF convertor only, so I tried the Acrobats feature "Create PDF from file". It works, but the Settings button is grayed out with all Office file types. I didnt find a way how to access Acrobats settings, so I tried by first opening Distiller and changing the options there. Nothing happened, the output from Acrobat has always the same file size and quality. Of course I could make PDF out from Office by printing to Adobe PDF printer, but how with other file types which are not Office types.
Thanks for suggestions, i.e. for showing me what I eventually didnt consider.

As I and Bernd tried to say. AA6 does not support OFFICE 2007. The fact that you have PDF Maker from AA6 working in WORD 2007 is surprising. Since it is not a normal or supported operation, we have no idea what to tell you. It should not even be working. You are the first one I have ever heard say that they have the AA6 PDF Maker (create PDF is the way it shows up) working in OFFICE 2007!
Thus, I may misunderstand. But I am trying to tell you that none of us have experience with the configuration. Adobe will also tell you to simply upgrade. Unfortunately, that leaves you on your own to experiment. If you have questions along the way based on your observations, we would be glad to try to help, but don't expect too much.

Getting general error when saving site using "create PDF from"

I'm using Adobe Acrobat Professional 8.0.0 for Mac, trying to save websites. This started working fine, but I had to shut down in the middle of a site being saved. Now when I try to save a site using Web Capture/create PDF from I get a "general error, nothing was saved". What do I need to do, remove, replace, reinstall or whatever to get this feature working again?
Also can anyone tell me how to set the feature that saves web pages with the headers and footers showing date, time, URL, page title, etc. I often use the print feature (save to PDF) and up until a day or so ago it always saved with those headers and footers. Now they're missing, which is what prompted me to try saving entire sites, above. I remember setting these a long time ago and being able to choose what went on the left, right,header and footer, but I cannot find those settings now.
Thanks,
Michele

Well, after downloading Applejack, I am completely confused. I'm not sure I understand what will happen if I do any of these steps: see 3a.. "clean out all cache files including the Launch Services database and any cached User Pictures". What kinds of things will I lose? Can I choose only the Acrobat cache files? I don't want to have to spend hours or days resetting things as I'm in the middle of a project with a close deadline. I also don't really understand fully what will happen with all the other things they discuss. The instructions say (I just copied and pasted these):
3. Auto mode: You can let the script run through its tasks automatically by typing 'applejack auto'. If you want the machine to automatically restart at the end of its tasks, use 'applejack auto restart'. You can also tell the computer to shut down automatically at the end by using the command line 'applejack auto shutdown'.
3a. Deep Auto mode: If you want to let AppleJack clean out all cache files, including the Launch Services database and any cached User Pictures, use 'applejack AUTO' instead. Use this if you still have problems booting after running AppleJack already.
4. Interactive mode: To run through just one task, or to run the script manually, type 'applejack' and then choose tasks from the menu. Running the script in interactive mode has the benefit of giving you options for working with user level cache and preference files, not just the default system level caches and preferences. To select an option, type the highlighted number or letter associated with the action, and then hit return. Whenever you enter a choice in AppleJack, you will need to hit return for that choice to take effect.
4. Corrupted preference files are moved into a directory that will mirror the original preference directory, with (Corrupt) added to the directory name. For example, corrupt preferences files found in ~/Library/Preferences will be moved to ~/Library/Preferences (Corrupt). After running AppleJack, you'll probably want to take a look at them (and most likely throw out those folders). As of version 1.4.2, AppleJack now creates a copy of the directory tree inside the (Corrupt) folder so that if any files were deeply nested inside the original preference folder, they will be placed in an identical directory hierarchy in the new (Corrupt) folder. This way, if for any reason you would want to move a preference file back, you know where it should go.
6. AppleJack has a primitive logging mechanism. It writes a journal of most of its activity to /var/log/AppleJack.log. AppleJack will automatically reset the log the next time you run it, if the file should ever reach a size somewhat over 500k.

Some text goes missing in the PDF output after I convert FM8 book

Hi,
I am using Framemaker 8.0, Acrobat 8.0 Professional, Acrobat Distiller 8.0.
When I convert my Framemaker books to PDFs, some text (especially Table Heading tags) go missing in the PDF output. I have tried to change the font colour, change the cell shading, and many other options. But, the problem persists.
I saw some similar links on the forums with this kind of problems. For example,
http://support.microsoft.com/?id=952909
http://forums.adobe.com/message/3285145
http://forums.adobe.com/message/4167112
http://helpx.adobe.com/framemaker/kb/troubleshoot-pdf-creation-problems-framemaker.html
After going through these links from the forums, I realized that this is a known issue. But, the above links direct me to Microsoft patches and these patches are available only for Windows XP, Windows 2003 Server, and Windwos Vista operating systems. My operating system is Windows 7 Professional, 32-bit version.
One more thing I want to say is we have never faced this problem earlier. It started appearing now.
While I know that the world (many of us) moved on to Framemaker 9 and 10, I also know that there is someone out there to help me to overcome this issue.
Thanks and regards,
Raghavacharyulu NCB

Hi Harpreet,
Thanks for your response.
We tried this option also. In fact, the Distiller shows this option by default. Secondly, we have recently updated our old template to reflect the new corporate styles and we suspect something went wrong there. We once again took the old template and updated with the new colour definitions and fonts, this time very carefully and it started working. Now, the text is not missing.
So, the result is something is wrong with our template. Quite surprising is it is inconsistent and some places the text appears and some places it does not.
Where do you work? Are you in India?
Cheers,

Create a PDF from a Web Page

I was on Acrobat pro 6. Now I am trying out Acrobat X pro ("v10").
1. I create a pdf file from a web page. When I click on a link in the new pdf file, it automatically opens that link in a web browser. Previously, in v 6.x, it defaults to "Append to the Document". How can I set Acrobat X Pro to default to "Append to Document" ?
2. I find the pdf file created from a web page has no page numbers. Again, in v6.x, there was page numbers in those files. How can I get page numbers included in the header/footer? Is the header/footer configurable?
3. In v6.x, when I want to convert a web page (into pdf) that is behind a password -- because it includes links, whereas printing to pdf does not -- I would first get the login page (in pdf). Then I can type in my password in the pdf file and click on go (right click and select Append) and I would get the next page in pdf. Now, v10 no longer does that. I keep getting different errors depending on the web site. e.g. I was testing on this web site, and get "SyntaxError: invalid XML tag syntax". Am I missing something or is there a "new" way to get the same result in v10?
TIA

Hi paulp14382584,
It seems that you have removed the Create PDF from webpage tool from the toolbar by mistake. Please don't worry I will help you to get this issue fixed.
1) Open the Acrobat on your computer.
2) Right click on the toolbar & select Edit Current Tool Set form the list.
3) Edit tool set window will pop up on your screen.
4) Please Click on the 'Create' option from the list on the left hand side & then select ' PDF from Web-page' from the drop down list.
5) Then click on the small button ( + & arrow sign towards up ) to add it to the tool bar.
6) Hit Save to confirm the changes.
This will add the Create PDF from web-page tool on the tool bar.
Let me know if you experience any issue.

PDF from Word doesn't capture entire page

I've created many a PDF from Word documents, but today I'm puzzled. I've created a one-page flyer in standard letter size (8.5 x 11"). I've set all margins - including header and footer - to zero, and placed a top and bottom of page border right at the top and bottom edges. Everything looks fine in Word, but when I convert the document to PDF, approximately a quarter-inch is missing from the left and right sides, and a full half-inch is missing from the bottom.
I've checked Page Setup to make sure of paper size, etc. but don't know what else to check.
Any ideas?
Thanks.

D'OH!
BD, has anyone ever held a parade in your honor?
It took me about three hours to conceive and do the layout for this flyer. Then another 5 hours trying to get it to convert properly into a PDF. When it didn't convert correctly from Word, I fired up Classic, launched an old version of Quark XPress and recomposed the flyer. But when I tried to export it to PDF, Acrobat Distiller (remember that?) just sat and spun its wheels. It did spit out a Postscript file, but it wouldn't actually make the PDF for some reason. Never even generated an error. Then, I accidentally double-clicked the Postscript file, and Preview launched as said it was making a PDF. I was a happy camper... until I discovered that this PDF was cut off on both the top and bottom.
Then I checked my email and found you had answered my cry for help (yet again).
When I followed your instructions (which I did try to find on my own before posting my plea), the PDF came out perfectly on the first try.
My thanks to you for what must be by now the 85th time.

Hyperlinks not converting when creating a pdf from Word 2010 to Adobe Acrobat 11.0.6

First off, let me say that these are not table of contents hyperlinks. I have created a document in Word 2010 (not a MAC) with hyperlinks to files residing on our company's intranet. In Word the hyperlinks work great but when I create the pdf, the links do not work. I have converted using both PDFMaker from Word and Create a pdf from within Acrobat. Yes, I have all the boxes checked regarding saving links. The links appear to work partially. Meaning that when I hover the cursor over the link, the pointy finger appears but when I click I get a pop-up message telling me the file could not be opened. Also, when I hover over the hyperlink, the address appears. So, I think it knows there's a link and it tries to open but can't. When I create the file within Adobe the link works - once. When I click on the link I get a pop-up window asking me if I want to save my file before closing. After my response the file closes and the linked file opens. However, when I go back into the file and try the hyperlink again, I get the pop-up telling me the file cannot be opened. HELP! I am at my wits end. After spending hours yesterday trying to research (I think I read every thread related to hyperlinks but I am not using a Mac, table of contents or Adobe 7 around which it seems all the prior questions revolve) and futily creating and recreating the pdf (as if doing the same thing repeatedly would somehow magically work) I am about to give up. This is a document that will be published to our intranet for use by employees which cross-references other documents to which they can refer for additional information. I would prefer to publish a pdf and not a Word document. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Thanks for your input Bill. I've checked the preferences and "view large images" is turned on. It's not all of the images which are missing, only certain ones do not transfer over to PDF.
