Open an attachment (non-PDF) within a PDF document (via button/link/other)

Good morning,
I have a PDF file where I attached an excel file and I'd like to use a mechanism (button/link/other) in the PDF to open the attachment. I read the the link technique only works if the attachment is a PDF. Is that true ? Is there anything else I could do to achieve this ?
Thanks,
Fabrizio

This can't be done with a script, but you can do it manually by going to
the link you created, editing the "Go to a page in another document" action
in it and then setting the "Open in" option to "New Window".
This can also be done with a stand-alone tool, but that is more
complicated, of course.

  • PLEASE HELP. Cannot open a PDF document via a link in an email. I am using Mac 10.7.5 and Firefox.

    If I receive a PDF document attached to an email by way of an icon, I can double click on the PDF icon and the document opens. HOWEVER, if I receive a link to a PDF document in an email, and I click on the link which leads me to a webpage with another link to a PDF document, when I click on the document, a new web page opens but NOTHING happens - no download box - just nothing.
    Please help. This is so frustrating.
    Yes, I can right click and 'Save As' - but I don't want to. I want it to open as it used to open - displaying the open PDF document in a new web page.
    Then I tried to click on a download button on a website to retrieve my statement - but again, a new web page would open but it would be BLANK. No sign of any download.
    When I used to open PDFs on a webpage, I used to get the Download box which asked if I want to OPEN or SAVE. This doesn't appear any more.
    Any help would be appreciated.
    I have already gone to HD / Internet Plug-ins and deleted the two Adobe PDF plug ins - but this hasn't fixed my problem.

    Click on the below link :
    https://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/otherversions/
    Step 1: select Mac OS  X 10.6-`0.`0
    Step 2 : Safari and FIrefox
    Then click on " Download Now"  button.

  • Adobe Acrobat 9 Pro do not open when printing a pdf document. Can anyone help?

    Adobe Acrobat 9 Pro do not open when printing a pdf document, instead I open it with Adobe Reader X to be able to print.
    Can anyone help?

    Hi Edna,
    It sounds like Adobe Reader X is your default PDF file handler. Launch Adobe Reader X.  Choose Edit > Preferences > General.  Click the 'Select Default PDF Handler' button at the bottom and choose Acrobat 9 from the drop-down menu.  Click Apply, then OK.
    Restart your computer.  Acrobat 9 should now be your default PDF file handler again.

    Dear Friends,
    I am working on a requirement to build an interface for Invoice posting/Parking.
    Transaction used: FB60
    Invoice data will be stored in a staging server, same has to be read and posted in SAP. Till posting part i am clear with the requirement. Invoice data will be in a flat file which i can read and store in my Custome table.
    But customer is asking to attach a PDF document (which is a kind of supporting document not the invoice data) while doing the posting.

    2. How to attach those files while doing the posting/parking as job is executed in background.
    I want to use BAPI BAPI_INCOMINGINVOICE_PARK for parking the Invoice, but where to attach the PDF.
    Or can i do BDC to attach the document?
    Any info on this is highly appreciated and rewarded.

  • Attach a PDF document to Device Location

    Hi all,
    We have a requirement to attach a PDF document to a Device Location. Ideally we are looking for an approch to upload a PDF document which would contain some instructions for the Business Users.  This would help the user to check the PDF document and perform Activties according to the instructions.
    Could you please guide through, if SAP allows for such an option to upload PDF file or any document to a Technical Object.
    It would be appreciated if you suggest few examples as well.
    Regards,
    Sai

    Thanks Rajat,
    I too found that option later. I shall Explore more on that.
    One quick question, services for object works find for Technical Master Data but for some reason its not working on Business Partner. The options in it ate grayed out. Any Idea ?
    Also, Services for object is not available for another user. Is it realted to any profile settings or will be in default to all users ?
    Thanks for you help once again.

  • Attaching a PDF document to an order from Web

    Hi,
    We have a requirement to attached a PDF document to an order in SAP from a web front end (its a custom web application written in cold fusion). We currently create orders from this web application which talks to SAP via XI. I know that using the "Services For Object" option in SAP GUI we can upload external document. Is there a BAPI that can be used to send the document from WEB to be added as an attachment on the order?
    Any response will be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks,
    Paresh

    Hi Tom,
    ArchiveLink is a service integrated in the SAP Web Application Server for linking archived documents and the application documents entered in the SAP system.
    Linking documents according to content guarantees long term easy access to the documents. From the screen of the application document, you can directly display the stored document that is associated with it. You can also use attributes to search for documents. This replaces time consuming processes such as making copies of originals, searching for procedure-related information, etc.
    There would definitely be content repository which will be connected to SAP through archivelink. Pls confirm the same with Basis.
    You can look at the customizing through
    IMG->SAP Web Application Server -> Basis Services -> ArchiveLink
    Also pls refer to:
    http://help.sap.com/saphelp_47x200/helpdata/en/16/56a539a908455de10000000a114084/frameset.htm
    Pls award if helpful.

  • How to attach a PDF document to work item .---urgent

    Hi EXperts ,

    What is need to pass to Workflow container ...

    Ah ok,
    then the only way I know is to get hold of some one with skills in Smart Forms, and alley up with them. Or better yet, use it as an excuse to learn to do it your self
    With a Smart Form, you can parse data into it, create the file, and then use the GOS functionality to attatch it to your BO. All this in back ground!
    Kind regards

  • Hello! I would like to know the procedure to turn a word document into a PDF document via Adobe Reader.

    Hello! I would like to know the procedure to turn a word document into a PDF document via Adobe Reader. Do I have to pay for it or just sign up? Thank you in advance.

    "...the procedure to turn a word document into a PDF document via Adobe Reader." 
    Not possible.
    No version of Adobe Reader can:
    --| create PDF 
    --| manipulate PDF page content  
    --| export PDF page content
    Adobe Reader XI does provide a "connection" to various Adobe hosted online subscription services (that are under "acrobat.com").
    There is a subscription services can create PDF from supported file formats that are uploaded to the service.
    This subscription service is "PDF Pack".
    With an active (paid up) subscription to a service one can make use of the service.
    Be well...

  • Why can I not open some attached emailed pdf files?

    PLEASE HELP ME! I HAVE TO OPEN THESE FILES MY BUSINESS DEPENDS ON IT! why can I not open some attached pdf files and others are ok?

    PDF files are extremely reliable. You may have a software issue. I have the problem on 2 identical systems with the exact same specs. The problem occurs at the same exact interval. It may be a windows update. We have had to re-install software form the DVD in each instance. This fixes it for awhile and then it recoccurs. Adobe acts as if they have never heard of the problem...imagine that. I'm the only one with th problem.
    This is happens with CS6 volume lic product.
    If you dont own Adobe product it will be even more difficult to find and answer as the reader is used my so many people.
    We know we have the problem again when we double click opn a PDF and nothing happens. SOme have reported that reloading does not fix the problem.
    Wish I could help you. I am looking for answers to this issue right now and phone support is a 30 minute wait.
    Very frustrating.

  • How do I open a web based PDF document on my iPad?

    I am unable to open web based PDF documents as I fear Apple does not trust PDF documents on the Web.

    Hi Rick,
    Did you try attaching screenshots to your reply to the email from this forum?  Because the Adobe forums do not accept any type of attachments for security reasons, your photo attachments did not get through.  Sorry about that.
    But I think I know what you saw when you tried to open one of the PDF Application Forms on the Alberta (Canadian) government web site.
    Did you see a message like this in Safari on your iPad?
    Please wait... If this message is not eventually replaced by the proper contents of the document, your PDF viewer may not be able to display this type of document. You can upgrade to the latest version of Adobe Reader for Windows®, Mac, or Linux® by visiting  http://www.adobe.com/go/reader_download.
    If so, the PDF form is a special type of form called a "dynamic XFA form".  The message is displayed when a dynamic content is not supported by a PDF viewer.
    As far as I know, there are no iOS apps that support dynamic XFA forms. The mobile version of Adobe Reader does not support dynamic XFA forms.  Neither does Safari or iBooks on iOS.  It's the limitation of mobile PDF viewer apps.
    To recap
    Dynamic or static XFA forms - Use the desktop version of Adobe Reader or Acrobat on a Mac or Windows computer.
    Most PDF documents and non-XFA forms - Use the mobile or desktop version of Adobe Reader.
    Please note that Apple iOS apps (such as Mail, Safari, and iBooks) do not display filled form data or annotations (sticky notes, highlight, etc.) at all.  If a PDF document/form is first opened in Mail, Safari, or iBooks, you need to use the iOS "Open In" feature to open it in Adobe Reader for iOS.
    How to open PDF documents in Adobe Reader for iOS (iPad on iOS 7 or 8 version)
    (This is the same FAQ document that I mentioned in my reply #2 above.)
    In this particular case, using the "Open In" feature to transfer the PDF Application Form from Safari to Adobe Reader for iOS does not help.  Because Adobe Reader for iOS cannot display the dynamically generated content of the XFA form from the Alberta government web site.
    But you should be able to open other "regular" PDF documents (just like the one that I provided as a sample link) in Adobe Reader for iOS.
    Hope this helps.  Please let us know if you have additional questions.

  • PC users cannot open my Pages-exported PDF documents

    Has anyone encountered this? When I want to give someone a PDF, I need to export it from Pages, choose "Open with Adobe Reader," and then re-save from Reader as a different name. (If I just export from Pages, some PC users cannot open it.) When I look at the file information for these two supposed PDFs, the one that's only exported from Pages says "Portable Document Format (PDF)" and the one opened and resaved with Reader says "Adobe PDF Document." What's going on here? Is there a reason my PC friends can't open a Pages-generated PDF?

    Thanks for the suggestions. Funny, when I changed the "Open With" selection inside the "File Info" box to tell it to use Reader, it it still tells me in the "General" information section that it's a "Portable Document Format (PDF)", but it does replace the "Preview" icon in the upper left with the Adobe logo. Only the version that I physically opened with Reader and re-saved lists the "Kind" of document as an "Adobe PDF Document". Wacky.
    Regarding the extension, when I exported from Pages, the "Hide Extension" box was unchecked in the "Save" window, yet the file's PDF extension is in fact hidden (and the "File Info" box also says it's hidden). What's up with that? Grr.
    Seems like a small bug--now I just have to get some PC-using friends to let me know which ones they can open! Thanks for your (tres rapide) help guys!
