Online .pdf documents, meta tags; title, keywords, descriptions. search engines

Hi. In DW 8.0.
I searched the forums for this but was unable to find the answer.
I would like to have meta tags in my .pdf files that are on the web.
When someone does a search for one of them in Google or Yahoo!, it reads the title in a bizarre upper & lower case letter pattern under the search results page.
"ExaMPLe SAMple tiTLE"
Correct me if I am wrong, but Google creates source code for .pdfs so others can search for them, but I do not understand why the title looks the way it does.
I was hoping by changing the title meta tag in the actual .pdf using Acrobat would solve this, but I am waiting to see if this will work.
Does anyone know of a better way of changing/adding the meta tags to an online .pdf document?
Thanks.

PDF is a print document.
HTML is a web document.
AFAIK, meta tags are found only in web documents.
Soluiton would be to convert your PDFs to HTML pages and use your own meta tags and titles.

Help on meta tag and pagr description

how / where to write meta tag and page descriptions on
dreamwaver 8
i'm currently can't find where to write down my key words and
descriptions on the meta tag and page description place on
dreamwave . please advise step by step as i'm a beginner
thanks in advance
you can e-mail me at : [email protected]

The code you show *already* has a keywords and description
META tag in
place. So - what is your question? You would either modify
the currently
existing ones or replace them with new ones. And the keywords
meta is
pretty useless as has already been suggested.

PDF properties (meta tags) can't be changed (error 0x80040154 - class not registered)

Hello,
Changing PDF properties (meta tags: author, title, comment, theme etc) in Adobe Reader as well as in Windows Explorer are disabled rsp does not funtion.
1. In Adobe Reader "File properties", the overwriting rsp insertion of text is disabled in grey.
2. In Windows Explorer, following message window appears: "Properties change: Due to an unexpected error, properties can't be changed - Error 0x80040154: class not registered"
(Sorry for the bad translation, but I am running the German version)
Is there a technical explanation and solution for this problem? In other PDF programms, the change of meta data does work fine.

Windows 7 64-bit, Acrobat Reader X 10.1.1. (Standard PDF Viewer)

Many thanks & best regards

@MadEyes: I found out you had to set a site address in wordpress the hard way, i set it for a dns host and I couldn't get into the wp-admin page or load any sort of image or css.
At the moment i have a server root directory with a wordpress folder on it. Eg:
(/srv/http)/wp/
and a test index file in the root. Eg:
(/srv/http)/index.html
The index file doesn't show up publicly, but it will on the local network.
I set the apache port back to 61669 and tested with canyouseeme.org. I got (i will email you the ip addy):
Success: I can see your service on X.X.X.X on port (61669) >EDIT: If I close apache, then it fails. Start it back up, it succeeds.
Your ISP is not blocking port 61669
I also nmap'd myself and got this:
Host is up (0.025s latency).
Not shown: 996 closed ports
PORT STATE SERVICE
23/tcp open telnet
5989/tcp open wbem-https
6881/tcp filtered bittorrent-tracker
8080/tcp open http-proxy
A port forward is definitely set up, so i dont know how much I can trust this (I did make 6881, but them program isn't open).
Any of this any help?
>EDIT: Excerpt from Webmin: "System hostname localhost.localdomain" this doesn't seem right.
Localhost:
#<ip-address> <hostname.domain.org> <hostname>
127.0.0.1 localhost.localdomain localhost ablanck
#::1 ablanck.localdomain localhost

Viewing online PDF documents with Adobe readerX1

Can someone please help me with this. For the past two months I have been unable to read online PDF documents. I have now followed the Quick Fix instruction re plug-ins but it made no difference. I couldn't even open the Adobe terms and conditions in this section so had to just tick the box anyway to get through.

Pat, I downloaded 11.0.04 but can not now install it because I get the message:-
"The upgrade patch cannot be installed by the Windows Installer service because the program to be upgraded may be missing, or the upgrade patch may update a different version of the program. Verify that the program to be upgraded exists on your computer and that you have the correct upgrade patch".
Do I first have to uninstall 11.0.03.37?

Trouble with viewing online PDF documents

Every time I try to view an online pdf document, I get a black screen that tells me to open Adobe Reader and accept the end-user agreement. I cannot figure out how to do this. Please help!

Launch the desktop application first.
On Windows it's Start>All Programs>Adobe Reader XI
On Mac OS X it's in the Applications folder under the path /Applications/Adobe Reader XI
After launching you "should" be presented with a EULA screen to Accept the licensing agreement.

If someone could throw me a bone here I would greatly appriciate it
Thank you

How long has it been since you submitted the site to Google. It wont show up overnight. Might take a few days or a few weeks.
Also I see only one h3 tag on the page? Why no h1 or h2 tags. Spider sees these tags as more important.
Also depends what search term you are using - it shows up near the top in Google with these search phrases:
Healthy Mind Therapies Beacon Hill
Thought field therapy Beacon Hill
So not too bad.
Also your images have no alt="" tag. Google spider reads those so make the most of them. Try inserting your header.png in an <h1></h1> tag and then use some descriptive text on the alt tag(see below)
<h1><a href="http://www.serenemind.com.au"><img src="images/AHG_Web_header.png" width="700" height="200" border="0" alt="Insert some descriptive text about the site here"></a></h1>
You also need to get listed in as many good free web directories as possible. The more incoming links to your site the better Google will view it and might place it higher up the rankings.

How can I force browser to open a pdf document in a new tab from another online pdf document?

Hello everybody,
I create the internal magazine in InDesign. Then I create a pdf document in which there are some URL. After having verified that every link works, I upload this pdf on our website to be read online. The pdf document opens in the browser.
The problem is that when people read the pdf, they click on the links but they open in the same tab than my pdf.
What can I do to make sure that every link opens in a new tab?
My apologies for English mistakes and thank you for your answers.

I already found the Javascript solution in Acrobat... It works more or less (layout problems), but it's impossible to do one by one as I have many links in my doc...
I don't understand why it's not possible to make it directly with InDesign before exporting it in pdf or while exporting it. There should be an option in the "new hyperlink" dialog box or in the pdf parameters.
Does someone have another idea?

How to add meta tags and keywords, I cannot find a way to do that

Does somebody know how can I add content and keywords to my website dome with I web?
It seems it is important for search engines to find it!

Content is what you add to your page. The visible part your visitors can see.
Keywords have to be added with [a META tag in the HEAD|http://www.google.com/search?q=meta%20tag%20head] of the webpage. That cannot be done in iWeb. You have to edit the published pages with a HTML Editor of your choice.
It's debatable whether these keywords have any impact on being found by a Search Engine.
Provide good content.

No title displayed on search engines

After a website analysis of my site WWW.gingerbirdstore.com, I found out that my site does not display a title on search engines. How can I add a tittle? I'm using iWeb SEO Tool and goDaddy for all the other stuff such as meta tags, description and title that I can't do on iWeb.

The title tag is the one displayed above the URL at the top of the browser window. If you don't add a title tag, this will be replaced with the page name as yours is.
Title tags are added to the html file for each page of your site and the easiest way is to use SEO Tool. The page title tag also becomes the heading in the page entry in Google and the meta description that you add in SEO Tool becomes the text.

Keywording for search engines?

I'm a real novice at tech stuff and am interested in purchasing iWeb for a photography business site. Can I do keywording with this software so that my site will be found by search engines? Is this a professional enough web program for creating a business website? Thanks.

A lot of photographers use iWeb for their sites.
Most of them make the mistake of using the iWeb Photos and Albums templates which makes the images unsearchable.
A lot are drawn to the Darkroom theme which makes for slow downloading pages.
You'll find out about this on the 4 pages starting here.....
http://roddymckay.com/PhotoSatellite/iWebPhotoTemplates.html
Keywords are added into URLs, page titles, page names, captions, text etc and there's nothing magic or technical about this - just time and effort.
You can add the essential title tags into iWeb or do it post publishing.
I'm in the process of putting together a short tutorial on SEO which I hope to publish later today.
Look for it here in a few (or more than a few) hours...

Can some document make an error when the Search engine is working

Hi everybody, now I'm asking your opinion about this.
I'm install the Sun web Server 7 and work fine, I was thinking that but when I try to make some search I have something like an Internal error. I don't expect that, only want a message like not found or something.
Next we try with the same word, but change to capital letter the first one and walaaaa, the search was successful and the search engine found the documents.
This situation is happening with some words, like "bank", is I search for "bank" I have that message "Internal Error" but if I search this one "Bank" I found in my documents...
I think that maybe It something in the documents, but I don't know what to think now... When I seacrh in the logs when I index the files I only see this, but I don't know kind of error is... and is this has a relation with my situation...

What you think??? Are you see something like that before??

We had a problem a year or so ago similar to this and it turned out that we had documents that contained special control characters and that was tripped up the search engine. The symptoms were similar -- if we searched for certain words, we'd get an error, but other words would return results fine. The reason turned out to be that when we were getting the error the collection of results contained a file that contained a control character.
I see I'm a year late in responding to your problem, but, hey, if someone else comes across this detail, great.

Select a text from a word/pdf document for tagging.

Hi,
After an overwhelming response for my [first thread|Thumbnail creation during Image Upload; , I am hoping that my second post will have a solution.
I am currently working on a knowledge management tool using ABAP WD. The requirement is to open the existing documents and select some text and tag/categorize it. I also found out that using flash islands, it is possible to get the selected text from textField and pass it back to the ABAP WD binded variable.
Is there a way to display word/pdf file and perform the text tagging in WD ? using office integration ? Kind help would be greatly appreciated.

Never mind--I figured it out.
