Opening attached .pdf and .doc files

I am having a mental moment and can't figure out how to
(attach to button) import .pdf or .doc files so that they open when
the project is published. The buttons are linked to files on my
computer...when I publish, Captivate knows the files are there and
tells me:
"The files/projects listed below are linked to the open
project. The linked files/projects may require exporting.
It is also important to copy all referenced files and
projects with their corresponding HTML files to the output folder."
1. How do I export the linked files?
2. What output folder is it refering to?
Thanks in advance...I'm obviously new to captivate.

Hi again js
Certainly linking to the documents from MenuBuilder is one
approach.
Are you saying the links from Captivate are failing you? You
may wish to try a technique I outlined in
this
thread.
Cheers... Rick

  • Attach .pdf and .doc files to Reply emails.

    I am desperately trying to figure out how to attach .pdf and .doc files to Reply emails in the Mail app. I have downloaded GoodReader, but when I go into "Manage Files" and choose "Open in...", Mail is not one of the apps listed for me to choose from (only Quickoffice and iBooks are listed, that's it). My Gmail account is pushed to the Mail app, if that's relevant at all.
    I'm hoping to be able to attach documents to Reply emails in the Mail app, but if I have to do it using my web-based email, that's better than nothing. I just really need to be able to attach them to Replies, and not compose a new email from scratch.
    I'd REALLY appreciate any help with this!
    Thanks.

    I thought I might be able to figure out a clever work-around by using cut and paste from a new message but this did not work as expected. I have been using the MobileMe iDisk app to store pdf files and then just mailing out the links.  I believe my cut and paste method would have worked with this, however I've got about a year now to figure out another way to do this if it is not included in Apple's new cloud service. This has actually been a better as I need to worry less about file size and don't need to have the files stored on the device.
    You may want to look into what on-line file storage solutions are out there and if they have the ability to send links to files to colleagues, possibly with password protection.

  • To open a Excel and Doc file inside the AIR application

    How to open a Excel and Doc file inside the AIR application.  I have opened the PDF file inside the AIR application.  But i got stuck in opening the Exce and Doc file.  Please help me in this issue.

    AIR does not support this inherently. However, you could write code to parse these file formats. For example, the following is an ActionScript 3.0 library for reading and writing Excel files:

  • .pdf and .doc files corrupted on 2 Macs?

    On an iMac and a shared Mac Mini, a number of PDF and DOC files have all of a sudden gotten corrupt. Some of these have not been modifed in 2 years but all of a sudden are corrupt. I've tried Data Rescue and cannot find anything online about these multiple files getting corrupted. I've rebuilt permissions and done various ML Cache Cleaner options to no avail. Anyone heard of anything like this? It just happened all of a sudden on 2 computers. At first I figured the first computer had the partition going bad but that doesn't explain 2 computers at once.

  • Batch script to open multiple excel and doc files

    Hi Everyone,
    Could anybody please provide a batch script to open multiple excel and doc files at a time.
    Appreciate ur quick response.
    Regards,

    You have several scripting choices within Windows. At a basic level you've got "batch files" - which run a series of command interpreter commands, and have a file extension of .BAT or .CMD. If you just wanted to open a list of Word documents, then assuming that the path to Word is correct (something like this below) you could list these in a file with a .BAT extension and run this (e.g. double click on it):
    "C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\Office\Winword.exe" "C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Desktop\File1.DOC"
    "C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\Office\Winword.exe" "C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Desktop\File2.DOC"
    "C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\Office\Winword.exe" "C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Desktop\File3.DOC"
    "C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\Office\Excel.exe" "C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Desktop\File1.XLS"
    "C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\Office\Excel.exe" "C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Desktop\File2.XLS"
    Another script language is VBScript, which was the example I gave. VBScript is available on most Windows platforms and can be run from a command prompt or within Windows. If you save the text I gave you above to a file with a .VBS extension you can double-click to run it (Windows) or open a command prompt and type CSCRIPT MyVBScript.VBS (assuming that's the name of the your .VBS file).
    Other script languages are available to achieve the same thing, including Powershell, however you'd need to have Powershell available on your PC.

  • Is it possible to batch print .pdf AND .doc files together?

    I need to let users to batch print a set of files that includes both .PDFs and .DOCs. Since <cfprint> allows .PDF files only, what would you suggest?
    Thanks!

    el_sim wrote:
    Unfortunately, it's not an option because I need to allow users to batch print and I have no info about their network printer configuration
    That raises a large RED Flag that you may be misunderstanding the <cfprint...> functionality.  <cfprint...> can NOT print to a printer that is configured to the clients computer.  So if that is what you are looking to do, you need to be looking at Client side technology.  But be aware, that current, common, browser based web applications generally have very limited connections to client hardware.  If you are willing to get into Flex, Flash, Air (or another company's technologies) you could probably do more.  But HTML and JavaScript currently do not have much access to the hardware of a client computer.
    The <cfprint...> tag is designed to send a print job from the SERVER running the ColdFusion application to a printer connected to that server.  IF you are writing programs with no knowledge of the server network configurations (I.E. an application meant to be sold to various customers) this becomes much more difficult to do.  But if you are writing a CFML application to be run on a known network, which is what many of us do, then it should be pretty easy to know what printers are connected to the server running ColdFusion and figure out what capabilities those printers have.

  • Converting .pdf and .doc files into .txt file

    Can anyone here please tell me (a humble programmer) if there's anything in Java to help me accomplish the above, i.e. to strip the markup of these files.
    Or perhaps someone might know if there are programs already out there that can?
    Any pointers or advice would be great, thanks

    PDF: iText (www.lowagie.org or .com) and FOP (at apache.org, or maybe jakarta.apache.org) are the de facto standards for writing PDF in Java, but I don't think either of them will help you with reading it. You might check out etymon. I think that reads PDF. Or you could google for java pdf reader
    Doc: Check out POI, again at either jakarta or apache.

  • I can't read - open my excel and doc files ?

    since I have installed the Lion I can't read my excel , doc files ?? format is not supported anymore .. I hope it is not just a joke .

    Hi
    Perhaps the document you need to open requires a higher version of Office. If you need a good software,
    do what BigGee said, download OpenOffice at OpenOffice.org.
    Thanks

  • How to open an old .book/ .doc file(s) and create PDF?

    Hi team,
    I seek your help and would like to know if you have a suggestion/ solution for the situation stated below −
    Situation
    Our development team received some files. These files seem to comprise of two sets of files and one .derive file. The sets seem to contain one .book and some .doc files each. The .doc files indicate that they are Microsoft 97-2003 documents.
    What I did
    · I tried to open the .book file with FrameMaker 8.0 or 6.0 and received an error message stating "Although <pathToBookFile>\abc.book appears to be a FrameMaker document, it can't be opened with this release of the product."
    · I tried to open the .doc file by using a text editor like MS Word97/ notepad and it displayed <MakerFile 1.03> in the File Conversion dialog box
    Saved .doc file as .fm and tried to import into/ create a new book
    Attempted to convert the .doc files by using an online conversion utility
    Opened by using HTMLDOC and DOXYGEN tools – displays BAD HEADER message
    What is required
    The files need to be converted to a readable format, preferably two separate PDFs.
    My questions
    ·         Are these FrameMaker files? Or do you suggest that they have been created by using some software other than Adobe FM?
    ·         If these are FrameMaker files – what version could they be (in view of the <MakerFile 1.03> tag)? is there a possibility that the files need a version older than Adobe FM6.0 to be opened?
    ·         How can I create a readable format (preferably PDFs) from the .book and .doc files?
    Please let me know any information that you may need.
    Thanks!

    If the .doc files actually have <MakerFile 1.03> at the start, then they're from the first release of FM. Check the book file in a text editor, to see if it has a corresponding <BookFile 1.03> in the first 16-bytes.
    These are very old files and hopefully without any corruption.
    You could try using FM's "heroic open" to see if anything can be recovered from these.
    First open/create a blank document.
    Next type <esc> o H to trigger the "heroic" open. It display a standard file open window, but this skips a lot of error checking and tries to pull whatever pieces it understands out of the file.
    You should then immediately save as MIF and then exit FM, so as to not leave it in a potentially unstable state.
    You can then open the MIF file in FM to see what's been recovered.

  • Can not open .pdf or .doc files in mail

    Every time I receive an email with a pdf or .doc file attached I can never open it as I get a message telling me that the file was not recognised or that the file is invalid. Even if I select to open using Adobe for the pdf I get the same.
    Any help gratefully received. I've always had this problem and get round it by viewing these emails online instead. But it's not as convenient of course.

    G'day jbglass,
    I had the same problem, getting the same error message etc. I solved the problem by going to Google Chrome and using that to download the file ( a pdf brochure in my case).  That worked OK.  Hope this helps.
