Need Help on Recovering Saved Data in a PDF File

Hi,
It took me several days to fill up an important immigration document in pdf format. During the time, I was able to save it and open it again with the data in the form fields.
The motherboard of the laptop was fried the other day. All the files on the harddrive are safe. I got a usb hd enclore and copy the files off the harddrive.
However, when I open the pdf file, the data fields are now all empty. What to do to recover the saved data fields? Is that possible?
Thank you very much!

Hi~
Don't be worry, I think to use some tools to recover your pdf file will be help.
I used a tool last month, and it recovered the pages as well as images in one pdf file of mine.
Follow this steps, it is very easy to repair: http://www.datanumen.com/apdfr/recovery.htm
You can have a try, good luck!

Need guidance entering my own data in a PDF file

Please refer to this example:
http://www.gnupdf.org/Introduction_to_PDF
I am trying to teach myself PDF internals. My immediate objective is to save some private data in my PDF files. My data is structured as "variable/value" pairs but I chose not to save it as custom properties because of its bulk and the possibility of confusion and undesired manipulation by the end user.
The above example immediately suggests that I should use an object of "dictionary" type. Let's try to assemble the file manually:
44 0 obj
<<
(Favorite Baseball Team) (Boston Red Sox)
(Age) (35)
(Planet of Birth) (Klingon)
>>
endobj
Is the above initial attempt correct? I will of course use the corresponding API to create the dictionary, but I am concerned about breaking things. Won't Acrobat get confused when it finds this foreign stuff?
TIA,
-Ramon

Hi Leonard,
Thanks for your always valuable help. FYI, my data is of a global nature. I suppose I should come up with some unique name ("MyPrivateData" or something) and place such entry in the Catalog?
This thread brings up a related topic. It is about the uniqueness of the JavaScript namespace. My PDF files are generated automatically and JavaScript code is added to them. I haven't done any tests yet, but I foresee the following problem: those generated PDF files may end up being merged with each other which brings the potential of namespace conflicts.
Let's say that the first JS-laden document has 3 pages and another one has 2 pages. I suppose there is no way to restrict it like: "this JS code applies to the first 3 pages only". As soon as the 2 documents are merged all the JS code (and worst of all: the variable and function names) applies to the 5 combined pages, correct?
There are 2 possible solutions:
- Perhaps there is a way to declare some JS code as belonging to one page only?
- Use collections. This brings a whole new layer of complexity and expense.
Thanks again,
-Ramon

Need help to open audios attached in a PDF file

Hello
I just need help. I have ordered a reviewer online that has audios and texts in a pdf file. I was told to download the latest adobe reader on my computer. I have done the same thing on my ipad mini. I am not so technical with regards to these things. Therefore I need help. I can access the audios on my computer but not on my ipad.
I want to listen to audios with scripts or texts on them so i can listen to them when i am on the go. I was also informed that these files should work in any device. How come the audios doesnt work on my ipad.
Please help me on what to do.
Thanks

Audio and video are not currently support on Adobe Reader. :-<
You need to buy a PDF reader that supports them. My suggestion is PDF Expert from Readdle ($US 9.99)

Need help in formatting the Date - Date does not

Your syntax is wrong - look at the post above where this syntax is given:
to_char (add_months(r.formdate,12), 'MM/DD/YYYY') "formdate2"Look at the formula from a logical perspective - "inside out" to read what is happening -
take formdate, add 12 months
add_months(r.formdate, 12)then apply the to_char format mask - basic syntax
to_char(date, 'MM/DD/YYYY')Compare to your syntax:
to_char(add_months(r.formdate, 'MM/DD/YYYY'),12) "formdate2"You will see your format string inside the call to add_months, and your 12 inside the call to to_char.
Good luck!

if you want to use log4j then,
in your project create a file called log4j.properties and add this
# Set root logger level to INFO and its only appender to ConsoleOut.
log4j.rootLogger=INFO,ConsoleOut
# ConsoleOut is set to be a ConsoleAppender.
log4j.appender.ConsoleOut=org.apache.log4j.ConsoleAppender
# ConsoleOut uses PatternLayout.
log4j.appender.ConsoleOut.layout=org.apache.log4j.PatternLayout
log4j.appender.ConsoleOut.layout.ConversionPattern=%-5p: [%d] %c{1} - %m%n
log4j.logger.org.apache.jsp=DEBUG
#Addon for
com.sun.faces.level=FINEGo to your class and add this line
private static final Logger logger = Logger.getLogger("classname");and then you can use
logger.info();
logger.error();

I need help convincing my workflow administrator on Illustrator PDF presets.

I need help convincing my workflow administrator on Illustrator PDF presets.
I work at a company which prints folding cartons, pressure sensitive labels, and film packaging. Esko Automation Engine 12 is our primary workflow. We use PDF files saved directly out of Illustrator as the primary file format. At times, the size of an art file can get fairly bloated from scaled images, effects, transparency, etc. The workflow and Ilustrator have a hard time dealing with the file size. It has been suggested to use the "export" function under the File Menu and save the art file as a "normalized PDF". I honestly believe Distiller isn't even remotely involved when you do this. I tried to make the case to use the settings in the dialog box which appears when you save a PDF out of Illustrator. I know for a fact that this dialog box isn't any different from what you see in Distiller. From my years of experience with Kodak Prinergy, I know things like bicubic downsampling, etc. will not hurt the file. The workflow administrator thinks otherwise. Can anybody point me in the direction of Illustrator PDF presets that would convince him otherwise?

Brian,
What is somewhat confusing in your post is your mentioning a capability to export PDF from the File Menu as a normalized PDF file. There is no such option in Adobe Illustrator, at least as it comes directly from Adobe. You may use the File=>Save As dialog to save the file as a PDF file, but PDF is not an option under File=>Export. Furthermore, in terms of the .joboptions provided by Adobe, there is no Normalized PDF joboptions settings.
You mention Esko. Is it possible that you have one of Esko's products installed that provides proprietary plug-ins to Adobe Illustrator? If so, that may be the source of this Normalized PDF option. Maybe some other participant in the is forum knows more about that, but at Adobe, we don't (for better or worse).
You mention problems with file bloat due to “scaled images, effects, transparency, etc.” Are you referring to the Illustrator .AI files or to PDF files created from same? If the issue is the .AI file size, the only thing you can do to fix that is to uncheck the save as compatible PDF file option when saving .AI. In terms of PDF files from Adobe Illustrator:
(1) Scaled images should not add anything to a PDF file size unless you take such images and attempt to upres them in Photoshop prior to creating PDF. There really is no benefit to be achieved by such upresing of the images; any competent RIP can do that itself just as well as Photoshop.
(2) Transparency only adds to the PDF file size if you create PDF with transparency already flattened, or what I would better describe as ruined. Flattening transparency often causes large raster bitmaps and/or very complex groups of vector objects to be created to simulate transparency in an opaque imaging model (such as is supported by PostScript).
You obviously need to produce PDF that can be accommodated by the rest of your workflow. Since we don't know what that is and whether it conforms to current best industry practices, we cannot make an absolute recommendation for you.
However, generally speaking, the most reliable PDF print publishing workflow would generally require that you create PDF/X-4 using the PDF/X-4 PDF preset from Adobe Illustrator (or for that matter, from InDesign as well). PDF/X-4 supports full ICC color management (including spot colors), the entire PDF imaging model, and live transparency.

Do you give some hint for this problem ?

Merge data and a PDF file?

Hi,
I´m trying to render/merge data into a PDF file using FormServer (7.0) and .NET. I notice that if I use the xdp version of the pdf, FormServer will return a pdf with the merged data. However, I cannot acomplish this if instead of a xdp file document I use a pdf file (dynamic 7.0 created with livecycle designer 8).
This works:
String sFormPreference = "PDFForm";
String sFormQuery = "ExpenseClaim.xdp";
This doesn´t woks:
String sFormPreference = "PDFForm";
String sFormQuery = "ExpenseClaim.pdf";
Isn´t it possible to merge data directly into a PDF using FormServer. I rather use a pdf file instead of a xdp file, because, a xdp file will need to be converted to a PDF file. Thus it will spent more time accomplishing the merge.
Thank you

Try using PDFMerge as the transformation.

How can I recover my purchased books and PDF files in my library?

How can I recover my purchased books and PDF files in my library?

you can re-download all purchases from the iBooks store at any time. PDF's you will need to have kept the PDF on your hard drive or on a service such as Dropbox, then you can re-import them into iTunes.

I need to visualize a document attached on a pdf file on an iPad. Is there any application to do that ?

Yes. Quite a few actually.
Starting with Apple's own iBooks App, I also see many recomendations for Goodreader, and Adobe's own PDF Reader. Just to name a few. Look for them in the App Store. iBooks and Adobe reade are free. You can also search the App Store for other alternatives.
Also for most PDF's the Mail App can open them directly.
