Opening Document via Hyperlink

I have converted a powerpoint presentation into a PDF for easy viewing by my clients. The PP was made with hyperlinks that lead to other PDF's. When i open the presentation in Adobe Reader and click on a hyperlink to open the PDF that is linked, it replaces the open PDF presentation with the PDF attached to the hyperlink. So now, every time my client clicks on a link, they would have to go back and reopen the presenation PDF. How can i fix this?
Thanks in advance for your help.

In PowerPoint 2010 there is an Acrobat Tab in the Ribbon menu that allows you to convert. The folder of PDF's is in the same folder that the PDF presenation is in. I have discovered that if i right click on the PDF that is opened after clicking the hyperlink, i can select 'previous view' and it will take you back to the PDF presentation. But i dont want to take the chance of my clients not realizing this and getting fed up with having to go back and forth. They'll just end up not looking at it.

After you finished installing did you launch Adobe Reader from your /Applications folder and accept EULA(End User License Agreement)?
What is your Adobe Reader version?
What browser are you using and browser version?
Thank You.

Opening .pdf via hyperlink in excel always opens reader full screen

Using excel 2003, I have hyperlink cells that point to files on my local machine, with names like "file.pdf".
When I click on these links, excel launches acrobat reader (as expected) but for some reason reader *always* goes Full Screen no matter what I do.
How do I make it open NOT full screen? This is very irritating.

Hi,
You know I have to thank you for the solution as by asking your question you provided me with a way to solve my problem .....
As double clicking a pdf file when the application is open with no open document works as I want it to (i.e. showing the new document in the existing acrobat window), so I decided to try out a plain vanilla shell instruction in vba instead of the AVDOC.Open statement ... and ....although not very programmatically aesthetic .... it works.

Cannot open documents via doubleclick. must navigate thru folders

I am helping an elderly gentleman. Suddenly he finds that doubleclicking on an Appleworks document does not open it. He has to navigate through the Finder-which is slower and confuses him.
IF he reboots his Mac (iMac 17") everything again is ok and he can simply double click..
But then the problem returns and he cannot open the documents again unless he reboots.
Not sure what triggers the problem-it is not a corruption as the problem clears when reboot. Unless some sort of temporary cache or permission is involved?
Slight suspicion this is related to updated Fax software but not sure. (PageSender)
Has anyone had similar problem? Any known application conflicts?
Responses welcome ... and Happy Holidays

A couple of things might help. Whenever you do an update, & installing software can fall in this category, it's a good idea to do two maintenance tasks, one for the system (Repair Permissions) and one for AppleWorks (delete preferences). (Thanks to Barry for this way to format this very common answer.)
To Repair permissions in 10.4.x, launch Disk Utility, found in the Utilities folder in your Applications folder, click on First Aid, then on Repair Permissions.
To delete AppleWorks’ preference files, go to HD > Users > Library > Preferences. Find and delete the file com.apple.appleworks.plist. Find and open the folder AppleWorks in this Preferences folder, then delete all of the enclosed files (with the exception of the Button Bar Preferences if you have customized the Button Bars). AppleWorks will recreate the preference files as it needs them.
Partly because AppleWorks 6 is actually an OS 9 application carbonized to run in OS X, there can be some confusion between AppleWorks files & OS X because pre-OS X systems don't use file extensions.
Sometimes, merely "telling" OS X that AppleWorks is to open these files will work. Click a known AppleWorks document in the Finder to highlight it & choose Get Info from the File menu. In the Get Info box, click the triangle next to "Open With." Click on this drop-down menu & choose AppleWorks 6. If AppleWorks 6 is not a choice, choose "Other" & navigate to the AppleWorks 6 application. Now click the "Change" button under the text that asks if you want to open all documents like this with AppleWorks 6.
If that doesn't work consistently, you can add the .cwk extension to the file names. This user tip explains how you can add the extension to whole folders of files at a time.

I have a document made up of separate PDF files which reside in a folder and are linked to each other via hyperlinks. Each pdf file is set to open with bookmarks displayed, however if I link from one PDF file to another and use the "Previous View" button

I have a document made up of separate PDF files which reside in a folder and are linked to each other via hyperlinks. Each pdf file is set to open with bookmarks displayed, however if I link from one PDF file to another and use the "Previous View" button to navigate back to my starting point the bookmarks are replaced by "page thumbnails". Is there anyway to stop this from happening?

Hi Pusman,
While setting up the links, if you choose to open the file in a new window then you won't face this issue, then you can simply switch to the previous file and bookmark view will remain as it is.
Does that helps with your query?

Rahul

Add hyperlink or button to open document in client application

Good day.
I have SharePoint 2013 and Office Web Apps 2013 integrated with it.
I configured the default behavior when clicking on a document in a document library to open it in web app.
And I want additionally to have column in this library with hyperlink or button to open document in client application.
I can click on menu near document name with WAC preview and then click "change" button. But in this case I make 2 clicks. So I want to have this "change" button as a column in the list of document library.
How can I do it?

Hi, Daniel.
I successfully created rich
text type column - richtextcolumn.
Then I created workflow associated with documents library and added action to set field in current element
- it sets richtextcolumn with value you wrote - "<a class="ms-listlink ms-draggable"
onclick="return DispEx(this,event,'TRUE','FALSE','FALSE','SharePoint.OpenDocuments.3','1','SharePoint.OpenDocuments','','','','1','0','0','0x7fffffffffffffff')" href="[%Current
Item: Server Relative URL%]" DragId="7">test</a> .".
I configured this workflow to run on element creating and editing.
Then I upload a document and see link to this document appearing in richtextcolumn.
But when I click this link it just download document and then open it in client application. So if I change something in this document and try to save it, it will be saved in my local download folder and not sharepoint.

I have loaded and reloaded Reader 9. I cannot open a pfd document.      I can save it to desk top then open it via a drop down box that has a "open with Adobe Reader 9". How can I avoid having to do this?

I have loaded and reloaded Reader 9. I cannot open a pfd document.      I can save it to desk top then open it via a drop down box that has a "open with Adobe Reader 9". How can I avoid having to do this?

Hello Michael,
Thank you for your response. My operating system is XP. When I try to open a pfd document I just get a series of letters and symbols in a dialog box. The top of the box says "select the encoding that makes your document readable". I can choose Windows, MS-Dos, or other (there is a long list to choose from). None seem to make a difference. If I save the document to my desk top I can right click on it and choose an option "Open with AdobeReader 9" and it opens fine.
Thank you,
Rick

Hello:
What operating system does your computer use? What happens when you attempt to open a PDF document rather than saving it first? Please include any/all error messages. Also, have you tried opening documents from other locations or just one in particular?

Do you have Microsoft Word installed on your Mac? If so, you can reassign all .doc files to Word by selecting the file in Finder and choosing "File > Get Info" from the menu. In the window that opens look for "Open with" and change the entry to "Microsoft Word".

Linking a WEBI report through hyperlink in a webpage using open document

Hi All,
I have a hyper link in a web page which when clicked should open a WEBI report. I created it using the open document feature.
Once clicking on the link, InfoView login credential page is displayed. After logging in the report runs.
My client does not want the login page to be displayed since most of the users does not remember their password (since SSO is implemented).
He wants to bypass this login page so that most of the users can directly view the reports.
Question:
Is there a way to achieve this i.e without asking for login credentials or by passing this?
Possibilities :
1: To create ID's for all the people (which I think is not a feasible option in my project)
2: Create a guest account with minimum privileges and share the password with all the users.
Note:
1: I use BO XI R 3.1.
2: No SDK is installed to do any programming.
Any suggestion are most welcome.
Thanks in advance

Hi Shreyas,
Manual Easy Way for doing the activity in SAP Business Objects 4.0:
This method is useful if we have a special system account that we want everyone to use.
You will notice that all we do is generate a logon token using the appropriate username, password and CMS variables. Then we append the token onto ivsLogonToken.
Note: The numbers on the url after /BOE/portal represents the timestamp of the last patch or install. You can put whatever you want under the number section and Business Objects will automatically redirect to the appropriate start.do
Step I:
Go to the SAP BusinessObjects\Tomcat6\webapps\BOE\WEB-INF\eclipse\plugins\webpath.InfoView directory and edit custom.jsp
Step II:
You can copy the contents from the custom.jsp that I’ve provided below to your custom.jsp.
Cutom.JSP File
<%@ page import="com.crystaldecisions.sdk.exception.SDKException" %>
<%@ page import="com.crystaldecisions.sdk.framework.*" %>
<%@ page import="com.crystaldecisions.sdk.occa.infostore.*" %>

<%@ page import="java.net.*"%>

<%@ page import="java.sql.*"%>
<%@ page import="com.businessobjects.webutil.Encoder" %>
<%@ page language="java" contentType="text/html; charset=ISO-8859-1"
pageEncoding="ISO-8859-1"%>

//BO Session and redirect to Infoview
IEnterpriseSession enterpriseSession;
/* * Set Enterprise Logon credentials. */
final String BO_CMS_NAME = "bi4server";
final String BO_AUTH_TYPE = "secEnterprise";
final String BO_USERNAME = "Daya";
final String BO_PASSWORD = "admin@123";
ILogonTokenMgr logonTokenMgr;
String defaultToken = "";
* Log onto Enterprise
boolean loggedIn = true;
try {
//Create session token
enterpriseSession = CrystalEnterprise.getSessionMgr().logon(Daya,admin@123, BI4SERVER,Enterprise);
logonTokenMgr = enterpriseSession.getLogonTokenMgr();
defaultToken = logonTokenMgr.createWCAToken("", 20, 1);
//Redirect with token attached to the ivsLogonToken parameter
response.sendRedirect("http://"+BO_CMS_NAME+":8080/BOE/portal/1205291547/InfoView/logon/start.do?ivsLogonToken="+Encoder.encodeURL(defaultToken));

Edit the username,Password & BOBJ Server Name'in BOLD Letter
Step III:
Stop tomcat, then delete contents in the SAP BusinessObjects\Tomcat6\work directory.
Then start tomcat again and the work directory will be regenerated with new code.
Step IV:
Trusted Authentication:
Trusted Authentication is a component of Enterprise authentication that integrates with third-party single sign-on solutions, including Java Authentication and Authorization Service (JAAS). Applications
that have established trust with the Central Management Server can use Trusted Authentication to allow users to log on without providing their passwords.
This method is really cool because users don’t even have to know their passwords. Basically with this method you can log into another system and if that system has the appropriate user name, you can pass it to the custom.jsp and then it will log you into BI Launchpad.
In addition, you don’t need to create any java code for the enterprise token setup.
Step V:
In the CMC, go to Authentication, then select Enterprise. Check Trusted Authentication is enabled, then click on New Shared Secret. Finally download the shared secret key and keep it somewhere secure
Step VI:
Copy global.properties from <INSTALLDIR>\SAP BusinessObjects Enterprise XI 4.0\warfiles\webapps\BOE\WEB-INF\config\default into <INSTALLDIR>\SAP BusinessObjects Enterprise XI 4.0\warfiles\webapps\BOE\WEB-INF\config\custom. Then using Notepad or another text editing utility, edit the following properties
sso.enabled=true
trusted.auth.user.retrieval=WEB_SESSION
trusted.auth.user.param=UserName
trusted.auth.shared.secret=<secret code from properties file you created in step 2>
Step VII:
Go to the SAP BusinessObjects\Tomcat6\webapps\BOE\WEB-INF\eclipse\plugins\webpath.InfoView directory and edit custom.jsp
<\!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN"
"http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/loose.dtd">

request.getSession().setAttribute("UserName", "Daya");

window.location = "logon.jsp";
</script>
</head>
<body>
<a href="javascript:goToLogonPage()">Click this to go to the logon page of BI launch pad</a>
</body>
Edit the username(Daya) variable
Step VIII:
Stop tomcat, then delete contents in the SAP BusinessObjects\Tomcat6\work directory.
Then start tomcat again and the work directory will be regenerated with new code.
Hope this help you as well.

Open document issue using Xcelsius WIH 00013

All,
I have Open Document that behaves correctly when I copy and paste it into address bar of a browser. It also works fine when I try to connect from one Webi report to another (so far so good). But when I use the link in Xcelsius, via a URL component, I get the following message:
Invalid Session: Please close your browser and logon again. (WIH 00013)
Previous posts on forumtopics.com suggests that this is a Tomcat time out issue. However, other open document calls from other Xcelsius dashboards with open document work without issue. Has anyone seen this before? I have included the hyperlink text. Please note long prompt text is courtesy of a BEx query in BW .

The same settings in the infoviewapp web.xml must be applied on the opendocument web.xml. Also you must be on XI 3.1 FP1 or higher. There is currently an Edge issue being investigated.

Hi Sunil,
I think we need more details about the problem.
Are you using enterprise or developing application?
What is the version of Crystal reports you are using?
There are some documents available to explain how to pass parameters using Open Document and URL reporting and below is an example:

Error message when trying to open windows7 via vmwarefusion.

error message when trying to open windows7 via vmwarefusion.;
Unable to open file "/Users/geraldw/Documents/Virtual Machines.localized/Windows 7.vmwarevm/Windows 7-000016.vmdk": The system cannot find the file specified.
I've completely uninstalled vmaware fusion. and would like to install a new copy of windows7 plus my vmware fusion3.0 that I have on a disk. I wonder if windows7 is still buried in my mac hard drive somewhere? I can see some windows files on my mac but they appear a gray and can not be accessed. Could there be a problem installing a new copy of windows through boot camp? It seems to do so wouldn't be a clean install as I suspect that windows 7 is still on the drive somewhere. I've tried to follow the path the file I listed above, but nothing comes up. I'm almost certain it was accidentally deleted completely from the hard drive as it was quarantined while using Clam X anti-virus. I'm a relatively new mac user and long time PC user, but a computer genius I am not. I don't want to have to reformat the whole mac machine and lose my current files, etc.
I've uninstalled vmare completely and reinstalled, it, but the problem persists.
Any help?

You will probably get a better response asking this question in VMWare's forums for Fusion.
Best of luck.

Unable to clear a GR document via f.13

Hi,
My user is unable to clear a GR document via F.13 since the IR document had been clear with other document.
It was noted that GR document do not have a matching document.
User try to clear the GR document manually via F-03 by manual entering the clearing to offset but this leaves the clearing document as open.
Please advise.

Hi,
Above credit entry in GR/IR account is at the time of GRN, and 2nd debit entry in GR/IR account will be at the time of Invoice. see below entry.
Debit GR/IR 690
Cr. A/P(vendor) 690
Therefore in GR/IR account is open item manage account, and you can see the debit 690 and credit 690, in GR/IR account, and this you have to clear in F.13 please check and confirm.
You can also view the PO history in ME23N, to verify that the invoice is posted or not, and if invoice is posted, then click on invoice doc, then go on followup FI document, which will show you what account has been debit.(this should be GR/IR with 690).
Your vendor invoice will be cleared once you it pay it through F110/F-53/F-58.
