Online PDF landing page via links

This is an odd How-To question, so here goes. I have a document of about a dozen abstracted text records. Each abstracted record, actually deeds from the 1700's, has the full image in a PDF file. In my Word file I want to create a link to the internal page of the PDF. For example:
Daniel Shumat (Greenbrier Co.) to Jacob Miller (Bedford Co.) ₤300, 296 acres on both sides of north fork of Black Water River, part of 396 acres ‘survad’ for James Rentfro, August 29, 1785, witnesses: Jacob [German Script], Daniel Miller, Jacob Wimmer, Philip Lybrook, recorded May 1, 1786 Franklin County VA. DB 1, pp 30-31.
The abstract refers to page 24 in my online PDF. So, how do I create a link using the colorized text above, pointing it to page 24 of the online PDF?

Create a regular URL link to the PDF, and then add this at the end of it: "#page=24"

When printing from an online PDF, the page prints in extra large scale. How do I fix this?

when printing from an online PDF, the page prints in extra large scale. How do I fix this?

This can happen when Firefox has misread the paper size from the information supplied by Windows. Clearing it can involve finding some obscure settings, but here goes:
(1) In a new tab, type or paste '''about:config''' in the address bar and press Enter. Click the button promising to be careful.
(2) In the search box above the list, type or paste '''print''' and pause while the list is filtered
(3) For each setting for the problem printer, right-click and Reset it. The fastest way is to right-click with the mouse and then press the r key on the keyboard with your other hand.
Note: In a couple other threads involving Brother printers, the preference '''printer_printer_name.print_paper_data''' was set to 256 and when the user edited it to 1 that fixed the paper size problem. If you see a 256 there, you can edit the value by doubling-clicking it or using right-click>Modify.

How do I export pdf from pages via commandline

I have a pages document that I use as a documentation for a library that I've written. When I release the library I hav been manually exporting the document to PDF, but I'm trying to automate the whole process.
Is there a way to get Pages to convert a .pages package to a .pdf file via bash?

Try Automator or an AppleScript.
I am not sure if Yvan our resident AppleScript expert is still monitoring these forums. Apple has offended him to the point he has gone on strike.

Making pdf content downloadable via link in Iview problem

Hi,
I have been having problems with the following scripting code, where I have a link that when clicked makes a PDF file stored in the KM downloadable to the users local area.The file does download to the users desktop but when opened, the content is corrupt. So when a user clicks the view link the PDF document is loaded into the browser iframe with no issues. However when they click the download link they get the attached error.The file can be viewed properly through an iframe in an iview on the portal but when downloaded via this script 'token missing' errors occur.
I have pasted the code and would appreciate any help offered.
Thanks
Rebecca
pResponse.write("<a onClick=\"blur(); downloadDoc('" + fileIds<i> + "'); return false;\" href=\"javascript: void(0);\">");
                                   pResponse.write("<img src=\"" + docURL + downloadGif + "\" border=0 width=\"16\" height=\"20\" alt=\"Download\"></a></td>");
                                   pResponse.write("</tr>");
                         pResponse.write("</table>");

                         IPortalComponentURI componentURI = pRequest.createPortalComponentURI();
                         componentURI.setContextName(downloadPCDPath);

                         pResponse.write("document.getElementById('downprint').src = '" + componentURI.toString() + "?rid=' + docToDownload; ");
                         pResponse.write("}");
                         pResponse.write("</script>");
                         pResponse.write("<script></script>");

               ex.printStackTrace();
               mDbUtil.writeException(ex, pResponse );
          } catch (ResourceException ex) {
               ex.printStackTrace();
               mDbUtil.writeException(ex, pResponse );
          } catch(Exception ex) {
               ex.printStackTrace();
               mDbUtil.writeException(ex, pResponse );

I am not quite sure what this is supposed to be doing, however, a better method would be to have a custom component which accepts a RID to a resource. This component would then read the content of the PDF (using its bytes) and write these bytes out to the HttpServletResponse output stream. You need to make sure that the HTTP header content-disposition is also set correctly (can't remember exactly what this should be, however, a quick google search should return the correct results).
This should be all you need to do I believe. Let me know if you need any help with this further

How to show property bag values of site collection in web part on landing page in sharepoint online?

How to show property bag values of site collection in web part on landing page in sharepoint online - office 365?

You can use JavaScript Client object model to read the property bag values. Example:
function getWebProperty() {
var ctx = new SP.ClientContext.get_current();
var web = ctx.get_site().get_rootWeb();
this.props = web.get_allProperties();
ctx.load(web);
ctx.load(this.props); //need to load the properties explicitly
ctx.executeQueryAsync(Function.createDelegate(this, gotProperty), Function.createDelegate(this, failedGettingProperty));
function gotProperty() {
var myPropBag = this.props;
alert(myPropBag.get_fieldValues()["allowdesigner"]); //returns the value of the key allowdesigner
function failedGettingProperty(args, sender)
//handle errors here

How do you add portable links to the Custom Landing Page

I have customized the PS2 Landing Page. This will be deployed to multiple environments. I need the url links on the page to be portable and point to a location on the server it is running on. (ex. anyHost.oracle.com/xyz where anyHost will be the server this is running on).
I've tried using EL in the goLink : destination="http://#{facesContext.externalContext.request.serverName}/xyz"
and also:
goLink: destination="http://#{landingBean.host}.oracle.com/xyz"
where the code is:
package custom.webcenter.spaces;
import javax.faces.context.FacesContext;
import javax.servlet.http.Cookie;
import javax.servlet.http.HttpServletRequest;
public class landingBean {
public landingBean() {
public String getHost() {
FacesContext context = FacesContext.getCurrentInstance();
HttpServletRequest req = (HttpServletRequest)context.getExternalContext().getRequest();
String host = req.getServerName();
if (host.equalsIgnoreCase("127.0.0.1")) {//If running this from the laptop, return abcde
return "abcde";
else { //split the hostname and return the first part
return host.substring(0, 6);
These did not work and caused the page to not display at all.
Please let me know if you have any suggestions.
Thank you!

I tried this:
<af:outputText value="http://#{facesContext.externalContext.request.serverName}:#{facesContext.externalContext.request.serverPort}/" />When i run this, it shows:
http://localhost:7101/
I believe this is whay you need.

Convert Pages document to PDF and maintain html links accurately

Hi - I am trying to convert a Pages document to pdf, simple right? go to Print / PDF / Save as pdf...
I have also tried Print / Save as Postscript and Print / Open in PDF
with the same results, which are...
Pages dutifully converts to pdf, but on some pages where I have multiple links the formatting position of the links is all over the place on the page, some links are conflated on the page so it says one thing 'www.bbc.co.uk' for example but when you click that link it links to 'www.cnn.com' instead because CNN is the link a little further on in the line, or in the line of text above, or whole sections of the page (half of one page) become a link!
I have checked the formatting positions and link lables over and over again in Pages and they are spot on, no confusion, no leaking in positional accuracy, it is only when converting to pdf or postscript
I have many html links in my document so it is vital that the exact position of the formatted links in Pages is converted accurately.
Any advice on
a) using Pages Print command accurately? or
b) third party apps (really dont want to go there)
that might convert more accurately?
many thanks

Thank you Roger!
I went back to 09 as suggested which identified the section in question as having a whole load of text that had become associated with one of the links - goodness knows how or why - but this wasn't apparent in the Pages 5 doc, nothing explicit signified that there was an issue with the formatting until converting to pdf
It took me a while to strip it all out without losing all the other formatting! but done now and converting beautifully to pdf with complete accuracy in terms of formatting positions of linked text...
I then reimported back into Pages 5 to see if I could make sense of it in the same way, long story short no chance, there is still background formatting in there, despite going through it line by line, character by character and removing all traces of any link through the 'right click' 'remove link' function - as soon as you convert to pdf lots of text becomes active again even though it is absolutely not visible in the Pages 5 doc
Clearly, despite a strong desire to continue in 5 from a being uptodate perspective, I shall stick to the 09 world and wait for Apple to sort things out.
If anyone from Apple is reading this, it has cost me approx 2 days of messing about to get to a point where I give up on 5 and return to 09. Please resolve as soon as possible!

ILife 08- problem with Podcast and Blog links on landing page

Hello I have iLife 08, running OS 10.4.11. The Podcast and Blog links on my iWeb landing page appear but don't do anything. All was working fine one week ago. They load, and when you mouse over it the links looks like they are going to work but don't.
Any ideas on what the problem is?
thanks in advance for your time,
-g-

Hi Chad,
Yes. I had a similar problem. The 1st click on an iTunes hyperlink (i.e. http://phobos.apple.com/WebObjects/MZStore.woa/wa/viewPodcast?id=97154883 ) occasionally does nothing for me in Safari. And as you described, the 2nd click usually works. I actually didn't notice the Safari window containing the link closing itself. I'll keep an eye out for that.
I'm running iTunes 6.0.2 with 2.0.3. See if running an update changes anything for you.

ACROBAT READER 7.09-PDF'S NOT OPENING FROM ONLINE PDF LINKS

Trying to open up pdf's from an online link and they will not open up, not even in preview. Anyway i can setup acrobat to be the default handler of online pdf's.

Basically what is happening is that no download box pops up when i click the link on his mac, meaning, it doesn't look like it is even downloading it. My mac downloads and opens it right up on my machine in adobe. I thought maybe it was a browser issue, im running safari 1.3.2, he is running 1.2.3 and i tried upgrading him to 1.3.1 and it said it couldn't install the software, I then tried installing 1.3.2 and it said it couldn't install without 1.3.1. How the **** do you upgrade safari?

Acrobat Online PDF Destinations Linking Problem

Hi
I've created several destinations from several web pages to different end points within a single PDF document. Our testers are confirming an intermitent problem where they link to a different end point than is set for that link. Thi may occur 1 out of 5 or more attemps. In other words the link works correctly most of the time. Is there anything someone could suggest to prevent this from happening. I'm going to re-create the end points all over again, but I was hoping someone could come up with a better recommendation.
Thanks!

Here is the .pdf file (.jsp file) I need to open, i.e. the SC 30 Dismissal Small Claims Court.pdf (updated 11/05/13)--- (see screen shot):

Here is the default programs in my Windows 7 Pro, 64-bit PC to open .jsp & .pdf files (see two screen shots):
I'm not a computer expert, but I think somehow I need a program or plug-in or something related to Java in order to open the .jsp files, not Adobe Reader. Can you assist me with figuring out the Java thing if you think that could be it?

Preserving links when exporting to PDFs from Pages 5.1

Several people have noted that links do not survive after the first page of a PDF document when exporting from a Pages 5.x document to PDF. *IF* the links are dislayed as html code, they will survive: e.g.
html://www.apple.com
will work on all pages of the PDF document (anyway, it works on page 2!)
But if you edit the link and CHANGE THE DISPLAY NAME, the links will no longer work on page 2 and subsequent pages. E.g., this link will NOT work even though it resolves to the same address (i.e., html://www.apple.com).
apple.com
This is insane, of course. Any work arounds?

Right, I know it will work if you don;t edit the display name. But one often will want to do that. If you were writing a column, say, you might say "In Dick Francis's novel Refusal, the author soes thus and such." That link is clickable. It would work natively in Pages 5, as in Pages 4.3, in a TextEdit document natively or exported to PDF, and in Apple mail, etc. It also works when you export from Pages 4.3 to PDF. In Pages 5, however, it only works (after the first page: who knows why it works on the first page!) if the display name is the same as the html code. This is a bug, or sloppy programming, or both.
I like Page 4.3 quite a lot. I has its limitations but it is simple without being simplistic. I had high hopes for Pages 5. Now that we have 5.1, though, I see that it is just not going to work for me or for my businesses. There are little things like the inability to set the default zoom (which is acutally quite annoying if your eyes are not so hot), the inabilty to see|print comments and big things like the lack of Applescript support, bookmarks, and mail merge. I thought Apple was going to be bringing back these features, but I see now that they are committed to the lowest common denominator. The people who say Apple is is the business of making "toys" are, alas, correct. I guess the business market is not big enough for them. I've actually removed pages 5.1 from all our our macs, and have removed 2.1 from our ios devices. We still have a few stray documents that were created or edited with Pages 5, but I've discovered that you can use Pages for icloud to download a pages file in Word format. Pages 4.3 can open and edit Word files, so that is a (cumbersome) workaround. We'll continue to use 4.3 (and 1.7.2 on the ipad) for the time being, but obviously will need to find something that has current support going forward.

How do i send a link or page via email with firefox?

i am new to firefox. had internet explorer for a long time. when i found a site on the internet that i wanted to share with a friend, there were choices somewhere on the menu bar or where the tabs are that said "send link via email" and "send page via email". when i selected one of these, a new email would open in yahoo with the link or page in the body, and i could send this to any contact. can't find these options here. please help! thank you!

There is an option to "Send Link..." in the File menu. Firefox does not have a built-in send page by email option.
