Oracle utilities for PDF handling?

Hello,
Considering that Reports generates PDF:s, are there any Oracle utility jars that would help me extract a java BufferedImage (or such) from a page in an existing PDF document? I am trying to write a FAX destype but the fax interface wants an Image and tools I have tried (pdfbox, the old acrobat bean, jpedal) are all incomplete or horribly expensive :-/

But Java stored procedures are an "Oracle-way" of doing things. In fact, it's one of the easier Oracle ways of doing things (note that a lot of the newer built-in packages are Java stored procedures).
It is hard to suggest better ways of doing things when we don't understand why the easiest options are off the table. I'd argue rather strenuously that a Java stored procedure would be the best way for most folks. If you're a .Net shop with Oracle on Windows, you could also write a .Net stored procedure that would do the same thing. Or you could use DBMS_SCHEDULER. You could also write a Java stored procedure that called out to the command line, though I'm hard pressed to imagine that as a better solution to just writing a Java stored procedure...

  • Is it possible to override the built-in PDF format handler with a custom IFilter for PDF?

    Hi,
    SharePoint 2013 comes with a built-in "format handler" for PDF now, so it can index PDF files out of the box. This is great for most users, as it now no longer is necessary to install a third-party IFilter for crawling PDF documents.
    My question is, is it possible to override the built-in format handler for PDF with a custom IFilter for PDF? I played with the Set-SPEnterpriseSearchFileFormatState and Remove-SPEnterpriseSearchFileFormat cmdlets. While it is possible to deactivate
    the built-in format handler, I was not able to remove it and to create a new one that activates a custom IFilter for PDF files.
    Background of the question: While the new built-in format handler for PDF will probably be sufficient for many SharePoint users, some need additional capabilities regarding indexing if PDF documents, e.g. extraction of custom metadata from PDF's document
    information dictionary and embedded XMP metadata. PDFlib GmbH, the company I work form, sells an IFilter for PDF, and of course we would like to continue to offer this for SharePoint 2013.
    Thanks
    Stephan

    You should be able to replace it with any ifilter you want, this is the procedure for installing it:
    Install PDF iFilter 9.0 (64 bit) from
    http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/detail.jsp?ftpID=4025 (http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/detail.jsp?ftpID=4025)
    Download PDF icon picture from Adobe web site
    http://www.adobe.com/misc/linking.html (http://www.adobe.com/misc/linking.html)  and copy to C:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\Web Server Extensions\15\TEMPLATE\IMAGES\
    Add the following entry in docIcon.xml file, which can be found at: C:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\Web Server Extensions\15\TEMPLATE\XML
    <Mapping Key="pdf" Value="pdficon_small.png" />
    Add pdf file type on the File Type page under Search Service Application
    Open regedit
    Navigate to the following location:
    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Office Server\15.0\Search\Setup\ContentIndexCommon\Filters\Extension
    Right-click > Click New > Key to create a new key for .pdf
    Add the following GUID in the default value
    {E8978DA6-047F-4E3D-9C78-CDBE46041603}
    •Restart the SharePoint Server Search 15
    •Reboot the SharePoint servers in Farm
    •Create a Test site (with any out-of-box site template) and create a document library upload any sample PDF document(s).
    •Perform FULL Crawl to get search result.
    Once the crawl is completed we will get search results.

  • Error while configuring Eclipse SDK for Oracle Utilities SDK 2.2

    Hi.
    I'm installing an Enterprise Taxation Management development workstation. I followed the install guide from top to bottom.
    The application server is ok, the SDK seems to be OK.
    I executed 'configureEclipse.exe' and made manual configurtions -as the install guide reads-. The eclipse project was created, but it has 2 missing libraries.
    When I open eclipse, it shows the following errors:
    Project EclipseProject220 is missing required library: 'lib/ojdbc5-11.1.0.6.0.jar'
    Project EclipseProject220 is missing required library: 'lib/spl-ccb-2.2.0.jar'
    My questions is ¿where do I get those jar files?
    About the environement:
    The develpment workstation is a laptop running Windows 2003 server, with ETM v2.2.0 Application Server installed. 3rd party SW is installed ok (appropiated versions). Web Server is Apache Tomcat v6.0.13. Eclipse v3.2.2. Oracle Utilities SDK v2.2.0.5 installed.
    Database is installed on another computer, running Windows XP with Oracle Database 11i, connected on a LAN.
    Thanks in advance.

    I had these problems too..
    I suppouse you're installind TAX (ETM) so the library you need is lib/spl-tax-2.2.0.jar'
    On the other hand, the othe 'lib/ojdbc5-11.1.0.6.0.jar' eclipse is asking for. I changed it for 'lib/ojdbc5-11.1.0.7.0.jar'
    After change these libs I can run the generator and deploy scripts even when i don't know jet how to develop.
    Dou you have some cookbooks for developing (algorithnms, modify native clases, ect) you'd like to share??
    Thanks a lot.

  • PDF PRINTING using Apache FOP and Oracle Containers for J2EE

    Hi,
    I am having major confusion about the pdf printing in Oracle XE and Apex 3.1.2.00.02
    It clearly states that this is an available option on the Oracle website.
    According to Apex there are two options for printing report regions.
    Standard - which is free
    Advanced - which uses BI and requires a licence
    Standard requires me to have Apache FOP (which is provided by Oracle in the Apex release) and Oracle Containers for J2EE (OC4J)
    Where my understanding of all this falls down is the part where I am downloading the Oracle Containers for J2EE and the license agreement states this cannot be used in a production system (only as a protptype). Can anyone clarify this? This is surely a required componenet and for the standard report printing which is supposed to be free.
    My problem is that I need to have a database system on a laptop that will go off site for a number of weeks. We need report printing options.
    Can anyone help with this. im desperate.
    Kind regards
    colin mclay

    no not yet with Application Server.
    I have tried to compare the settings to another installation with a separeted oc4j as described in the howto. But at the moment i found no mistakes.
    If i call the url adresse like:
    http://localhost:18101/fop/apex_fop.jsp
    i get:
    500 Internal Server Error
    Servlet error: java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: fop.apex__fop
    I installed it another time with these settings:
    Web Anwendung= .../fop.war (selected war file from apex install directory)
    Anwendungsname= fop
    URL zuordnen= /fop
    I would like to know if its possible to use the fop.war out of apex install directory with the Application server? In the standalone version (as described in howto) it works. But if you install it there you don't need to define an URL.
    Is the URL /fop correct or what do i have to insert there?

  • OUAF Application Framework install question - for  Oracle Utilities SDK 4.0

    Hi,
    I hope someone can help me, I am really confused.
    I have a working install of MDM 2.1 and everything is working.
    Now I need to install the OUAF SDK to start coding in JAVA but since I a mstill new to all this I dont really understand where the Application server is. I though that I installed that already. But it is not found in C:\ouaf\demo.
    I have the framework installed, I do not understand why the SDK is telling me wrong folder.
    Oracle Utilities Application Framework V4.1.0 Multiplatform is the one I have installed.
    Here is the install doc:
    http://www.box.net/shared/k86v1a4gtc793ho1zc20
    Here is part of the install doc:
    •     OUAF Application Server in 32-bit and development (exploded) form. The installation will prompt for the folder name where this is installed. Note the first 2 digits of the versions (e.g. “4.0”) of both the SDK and application server must match.
    I found the patch number to the SDK here: (but where do I find OUAF app server?)
    http://blogs.oracle.com/theshortenspot/entry/new_releases_of_oracle_utiliti
    10043375 - Oracle Utilities SDK 4.0.0.4 (for OUAF V4.0.2 based products).
    Edited by: LodestarGuy on Jul 3, 2011 11:57 AM

    Actually it did mess up. App server not starting anymore. The folder structure did not change also.
    Here is the config env screen after the changes:
    http://www.box.net/shared/rb0pe1ubi4vsgyvv8ok6
    And here is the error:

    Thank you for looking into this.

  • Pre installers for installing Oracle Utilities Application Framework V4.0.2

    is there any pre installers for installing Oracle Utilities Application Framework V4.0.2 for Meter Data Management V2.0.0 Multiplatform??
    reply me asap.
    regards
    vijaya

    It would help if you provided osme basic information like what version you are installing, what operating system, 32 bit or 64 bit. We may like to help but we are not mind readers.
    If you happen to be installing one of the latest versions of the framework (CC&B FW 2.2 SP 8) there is an issue.
    You may have to start off with hibernate 3.2.5 then run the framework installation.
    This may not do a full install but you may find that only 1 or patches have not been installed and the issue is that these require hibernate 3.2.7
    So go back and install the hibernate 3.2.7 and change the environment variables to point to the new version.
    Re-run the framework installer.
    You may get errors in that the patches that did not previously install properly cannot be installed.
    This is because they have entries in the etc/installed_fixes.txt file.
    edit the etc/installed_fixes.txt file and delete the patches that will not install.
    re-run the installer now and the rest of the patches should now install
    The 2 offending patches may be 9384543 and 9080333.

  • Looking for PDF Software

    I couldn't find an appropriate category for this question. I'm looking for PDF software for my Mac. Adobe Acrobat Writer is ridiculously expensive so I'm wondering if anyone else uses another PDF writer. Also wondering how old a version of Adobe Writer will run on my 2006 Intel MacBook.

    A basic work around, with a few possible issues, may be to use the
    Print option to 'save as pdf' so using another application and see if
    this works (outside of saving a web page or other content) with a
    word processing application, such as Text Edit.
    There may be a way to use an older Adobe Acrobat (for OS X) in
    the later version on Intel hardware, since it may be able to work
    in Rosetta environment; this will consume more system resources
    if it does work there. The ideal minimum system requirements are
    on the retail packaging for Adobe Acrobat related products; so the
    manufacturer's web page or some other information source may be
    able to shed more light on these details in obsolete software.
    Of course, since the Intel Mac can't run Classic/9 that limits useful
    yet out of date other versions of older Acrobat or Adobe products.
    There should be a support forum for Adobe acrobat and other apps
    directly linked to their site online.
    There may be some freeware or shareware capable of making .pdfs
    from other documents, not sure how advanced they'd be. For a time
    I had a few freeware utilities for working with .pdf items, to combine
    and compress; and break them smaller so I could email them, some
    years ago when attachments had to be smaller than in gmail.
    In a google search window, you could find and screen some possible
    options; I noticed (without entering mac or osx) I get some options in
    a list possible pre-search topics when just entering ' make pdf ' in a
    new google search box; other choices appear below my entry...
    By adding the suffix ' mac os x ' to my search terms, I get proof of
    concept (been using it for years) of making a pdf document from
    a text editor or word processor document, by using Print options:
    "How to create adobe acrobat PDF documents"
    http://clc.its.psu.edu/Labs/Mac/help/software/howtocreatepdfs.aspx
    There may be a freeware utility among the download links at
    VersionTracker or macupdate pages; among their other items.
    Also, in Apple Support there are third party software D/L links.
    In shareware applications for handling pdf content, there are
    editors which allow one to edit or use pdf documents that are
    blank or need words added, and correct or fill them out; or
    to change content on documents you have authorization for.
    This usually costs. A few may provide a limited use demo.
    An example of a shareware editor tool (not free) is this one:
    PDF Editor Tool - PDF Studio - edit pdf on Linux, Mac, Windows:
    http://www.qoppa.com/psindex.html
    Good luck & happy computing!

  • Integrating Oracle Utilities using Oracle SOA

    Hi,
    I need help on how to proceed to integrate Oracle utilities using Oracle SOA
    Our project has around 13 modules like New connection, Disconnection, Dismantle, Billing , Global Information System
    Each modiule will interact with different other modules to get few services.
    For Example: 1)New Connection module should interact with Billing to generate the invoice in one scenarion
    and with Global Information System to identify the location in other scenario
    2) Same way Disconnection need to interact with other modules to get some information from other modules.
    3) All modules may need a SMS/ Email facility to send to the customers.
    I need to integrate this kind of application using Oracle SOA
    Please help me on how I should proceed further.
    Do i need to create a seperate BPEL process for each request of individual module and give them the endpoint of my WSDL to interact with other modules ?
    Can I have a single entry point and then navigate from there ? If so, the input params may vary, how this should be handled ?
    Please help me on developing this kind of project. Any sample applications are also helpful ...
    Thanks,
    dbp

    consider the adpater developers guide guide .. and the online help in JDeveloper .. that should give you a good head start ..

  • Iframe is not working for pdf files in iPad safari

    Hi,
    Pdf file is not displaying properly in iPad safari. I have faced below issue while using iframe
    Not displaying in full width and height
    Not able scroll other pages in pdf
    Thanks,
    Arun

    Hi Viraj,
    You need to upload an image "pdf.gif" in \etc\public\mimes\images folder.
    Also, you need to define the MIME Type for PDF documents in portal.
    Navigate to System Administration -> System Configuration -> Knowledge Management -> Content Management -> Utilities -> MIME Types.
    Check whether you already have a MIME Type for PDF or not. Else you can create a new Type "pdf" with MIME Type "application/pdf".
    Regards,
    Sudip

  • [XI 3.1] BEST PRACTICE method of Oracle connection for RPTs on Linux

    Business Objects XI (3.1) - SP3.
    Running on Red Hat Enterprise Linux OS.
    7,000+ Crystal Reports 2008 *.rpt objects ONLY (No Universe / No WebI).
    All reports connecting to Oracle 10g databases.
    ==================
    In the past, all of this infrastructure was running on Windows Server OS and providing the database access via a Named ODBC connection (eg. "APP_DATA".)
    This made it easy to manage as all the Report Developers had a standard System DSN called "APP_DATA" which was the same as the System DSN name on all of our DEV, TEST/UAT, and PROD servers for Business Objects.
    When we wanted to move/promote a *.rpt file from DEV to PROD we did not have to change any "Database Connection" info as it was all taken care of by pointing the System DSN called "APP_DATA" a a different physical Oracle server at the ODBC level.
    Now, that hardware is moving from Windows OS to Red Hat Linux and we are trying to determine the Best Practices (and Pros/Cons) of using one of the three methods below to access the Oracle database for our *.rpts....
    1.) Oracle Native connection
    2.) ODBC connection
    3.) JDBC connection
    Here's what we have determined so far -
    1a.) Oracle Native connection should be the most efficient method of passing SQL-query to the DB with the fewest issues and best speed [PRO]
    1b.) Oracle Native connection may not be supported on Linux - http://www.forumtopics.com/busobj/viewtopic.php?t=118770&view=previous&sid=9cca754b468fc67888ab2553c0fbe448 [CON]
    1c.) Using Oracle Native would require special-handling on the *.rpts at either the source-file or the CMC level to change them from DEV -> TEST -> PROD connection. This would result in a lot more Developer / Admin overhead than they are currently used to. [CON]
    2a.) A 3rd-Party Linux ODBC option may be available from EasySoft - http://www.easysoft.com/products/data_access/odbc_oracle_driver/index.html - which would allow us to use a similar Developer / Admin overhead to what we are used to. [PRO]
    2b.) Adding a 3rd-Party Vendor into the mix may lead to support issues is we have problems with results or speeds of our queries. [CON]
    3a.) JDBC appears to be the "defacto standard" when running Oracle SQL queries from Linux. [PRO]
    3b.) There may be issues with results or speeds of our queries when using JDBC. [CON]
    3c.) Using JDBC requires the explicit-IP of the Oracle server to be defined for each connection. This would require special-handling on the *.rpts at either the source-file (and NOT the CMC level) to change them from DEV -> TEST -> PROD connection. This would result in a lot more Developer / Admin overhead than they are currently used to. [CON]
    ==================
    We would appreciate some advice from anyone who has been down this road before.
    What were your Best Practices?
    What can you add to the Pros and Cons listed above?
    How do we find the "sweet spot" between quality/performance/speed of reports and easy-overhead for the Admins and Developers?
    As always, thanks in advance for your comments.

    Hi,
    I just saw this article and I would like to add some infos.
    First you can quite easely reproduce the same way of working with the odbc entries by playing with the oracle name resolution on the server. By changing some files (sqlnet, tnsnames.ora,..) you can define a different oracle server for a specific name that will be the same accross all environments.
    Database name will be resolved differently regarding to the environment and therefore will access a different database.
    Second option is the possibility to change the connection in .rpt files by an automated way like the schedule manager. This tool is a additional web application to deploy that can change the connection settings of rpt reports on thousands of reports in a few clicks. you can find it here :
    http://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/scn/go/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/80af7965-8bdf-2b10-fa94-bb21833f3db8
    The last option is to do it with a small sdk script, for this purpose, a few lines of codes can change all the reports in a row.
    After some implementations on linux to oracle database I would prefer also the native connection. ODBC and JDBC are deprecated ways to connect to database. You can use DATADIRECT connectors that are quite good but for volumes you will see the difference.

  • Oracle roadmap for Interactive Reporting

    Hello Gurus,
           This is just an opinion I need from you guys.
          Currently, there is System 9.3.1 in which only Interactive Reporting is in use.  Now, client has decided to migrate from 9.3.1 to 11.1.2.2.
          I was just going through Oracle roadmap for IR. I am just confused about future of IR. It seems Oracle is not much enhancing IR in EPM product suite.   Rather they are improving IR through OBIEE.
         This is a case where client is using only IR from Hyperion product suite & want to migrate the same.
         What is better path?
         Hyperion 9.3.1 to 11.1.2.2 or  Hyperion 931 to OBIEE ?
        If its better from 931 to OBIEE, what are high level steps?  Also how can we migrate Users, provisioning , reports to OBIEE?
         Please correct me if I am going wrong here.
    Thanks.

    It comes down to an issue of maintaining compatibility with current software versus having a product that actually works.
    I upgraded from 9.3.3 to 11.1.2.1 (On MS Windows Server 2008 R2/SQL Server 2008 R2/Windows 7 64-bit).  Here are the changes:
    IR will now export to a version of Excel that's 10 years old (.xlsx) rather than 20 years old (.xls from Excel 2).
    Service management is done through the web and is at a finer grain.  This really simplifies service management.  The small services restart very quickly so I am comfortable restarting one at lunch rather than waiting for a maintenance window.
    Names of functions have been made more obvious and meaningful (for example, you can now open a job instead of retrieving it).  This is a plus and a minus.  If you have been using the system for a while you'll initially have trouble finding things.
    The new version is incapable of handling non-trivial queries developed in the UI.  Several documents developed in 9.3.1 and 9.3.3 using derivable queries and append queries work fine.  The inevitable minor changes required as business adapts to the world, however, are not possible.  For queries of any complexity, IR sends the aliases (like the names of the queries seen in the section list) to the SQL Server.  Of course, SQL Server can't find objects with those names so the queries fail.  My solution is to use stored procedures.  At that point, I can migrate to any other (non-Oracle) product, so I'm actually happy they've pushed me in that direction.
    For large local results queries, the system will run out of memory if the query is run with UAC turned on and logged on as a non-admin user.  Oracle says this is because the new version has more features and, therefore, uses more RAM.  Oddly enough, the queries run fine when run as an admin with UAC turned off because they don't use as much RAM.  It looks more like a compatibility problem than more features.  Again, my solution was to push the work to SQL Server by developing stored procedures.
    I was testing 11.1.2.2 while planning an upgrade and found:
    There are more new bugs than the bugs that are fixed.
    No IE10 compatibility (documented).  Since we're skipping IE9 and moving straight to IE10, my main reason for upgrading (IE9) is gone.  IE10 compatibility should be in 11.1.2.3 near Christmas 2013.
    Recommendation:  TEST EXTENSIVELY.  Paint a clear picture for management showing that newer isn't necessarily better.

  • Table of Contents page numbers works for PDF but not for other formats

    Hi,
    I followed exactly was indicated here regarding creation of TOC.
    http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E10415_01/doc/bi.1013/e12187/T421739T481157.htm
    The page numbers generated correctly for PDF but not for RTF, HTML and XLS.
    (HTML and XLS are understandably not paginated in nature but why not in RTF?)
    Tried to make the simplest example work, with 2 headings each on a separate page. Doesn't work on either MSWord 2003 or 2007.
    What am I doing wrong?
    Regards,
    Jarell
    Edited by: Jarell on Jan 11, 2012 8:08 PM

    Hi Kavipriya,
    What is your email address? I have attached a file in Oracle Metalink, under SR 3-5172030861. named test_toc.rtf
    You may use any xml because the template does not use any dynamic binding of values.
    The template is basically 2 pages, the TOC in the 1st page. First TOC item (Heading 1) is in Page 1, and Second TOC item is in Page 2.
    So the end result should be (PDF result from BI Publisher):
    First TOC Item .................. 1
    Second TOC Item ............. 2
    But for RTF it outputs:
    First TOC Item .................. 0
    Second TOC Item ............. 0
    And after doing Print Preview (once or twice)
    First TOC Item .................. Error in Bookmark
    Second TOC Item ............. Error in Bookmark
    Hope this is detailed enough to illustrate the problem.

  • Problem in generating the Oracle report6i to PDF file.

    Hi guys,
    I had encounter problem in generating the Oracle report6i to PDF file. The Amount column once the report is genrated to PDF it double the amount reflected in the PDF file report. See sample scenarios below:
    Can anybody help me explain this issue how it really happens?
    Example:
    FROM ORACLE REPORTS6i :
    ITEM # PRODUCT AMOUNT
    1 PRINTER 5,000
    2 KEYBOARD 2,000
    TO PDF FILE :
    ITEM # PRODUCT AMOUNT
    1 PRINTER 10,000
    2 KEYBOARD 4,000
    Thank you.
    Lala

    Hi "LawlordsX",
    I do understand the issue, something seems to have messed up the Shell Extensions on the 2 Lenovo laptops you talked about.
    Could you please check if the 2 m/c(s) have an additional version of Office installed in parellal to Office 2007, say Office 2010 trial pre-installed on them. This can be verified via CONTROL PANEL > PROGRAMS AND FEATURES > Check for the versions of Office installed. If yes, please let me know the additional Office software version/type.
    Also, could you be more specific about the bitage of the system, i.e. whether the Windows 7 m/c is 32-bit or 64-bit?
    This can be checked from CONTROL PANEL > SYSTEM > Under "System" section check for "System Type".
    If converting multiple files at a time to PDF is an issue, as an alternate you could use FILE > CREATE > BATCH CREATE MULTIPLE FILES to workaround the problem for the time being.
    Thanks!
