Output to Word displays htt file header/footer

We recently had to update our headers and footers in both .html and .doc output. After making the change in Project Manager and applying it to all topics, we then generated Word, and in the output it applied the htt/html changes to Word. In other words, it put the htt footers from some topics in the body of our compiled Word document. I even went back and replaced the old footers/htt file and generated and it's still doing it. Any help how to fix this? Jim

Hi there
Can you please post a screen capture showing what you see when you edit the Master Page where the Header and Footer are defined?
Cheers... Rick

Download files & header/footer problem

Hello
I'm having two problems on my application.
I've created a table to save the files from a file browser following the tutorial.
Everything is working fine except the download option. When I try to download the file I always get this message: "Forbidden
The requested operation is not allowed".
I've created the download_my_file procedure, executed the grant and changed the download link to use the new procedure.
My other problem is with reports, I'm trying to make a template to my print reports, but header and footer aren't saved. DO I need to make something different for I can use header and footer?

Hi,
Regarding your first question: Are you using OracleXE oder 11g with the PL/SQL Embedded Gateway (no Apache)?
Then here might be a solution:

Why is my header/footer missing when I mail merge in Word 2013?

I have just converted from Word 2007 to 2013 and now I am having an issue with my mail merge document. My mail merge document has our company letterhead set up in the header/footer. When I finish the mail merge by selecting 'Edit Individual Documents' using
an Outlook contacts list - the first page is missing the header/footer but all the others are correct.
I use this document and mail merge every few days so this is going to cause me much grief if it can not be resolved.
I have never experienced this issue before and I consider myself an advanced Word user.
Has anyone else had this issue and knows how to fix it?

Hi,
According to your description, my understanding is that the first page of the Word document lost
the header/footer, but the other page display well.
If it is, please try the methods and check if it is helpful:
Click on File>Options>Display and make sure that there is a tick mark in the box for "Show white space between pages in Print Layout view."
Then, do you use DOC file (Create in Word 2007) or DOCX file?If
you use Doc file, I recommend you convert it to DOCX file to test.
If I misunderstand something, please let me know.

Header/Footer Appearing on Title Page

Hello,
In RoboHelp 11, every time I generate Printed Documentation (Word), my master page header/footer appears on the Title Page. It doesn't appear on RoboHelp's default title page, but it appears when I use a topic as a Title Page or when I navigate to a Word doc Title Page in Print Document Section Layout.
In the Print Document General - Content section, Multiple Header/Footer, <Default Title Page>, I select <None> for First Page (Apply to all pages in the section).
In the Print Document Section Layout, I thought RoboHelp automatically rendered anything placed above the TOC as the Title Page, but for some reason, it's seeing my Topic Title Page and/or Word doc Title Page as just another page in the document and adding the header/footer to it.
I think the last version of RoboHelp I used awhile back was 8 or 9, but I don't recall ever having this trouble adding a Title Page to a Printed document.
Please help me troubleshoot this.
Thank you!

You may also find looking at the Employee Care 2 sample project useful as that describes how to use the new print layout.

Patch for displaying header/footer in the PDF output

Hi all,
I have issue in the xml report, I am not able to view the header/footer details while viewing the output in pdf format.
I found the solution in the blogs, they mentioned apply patch(5352734) in the below URL(http://blogs.oracle.com/xmlpublisher/discuss/msgReader$103). I downloaded the patch but i dont knw how to apply this patch to generate the output with header/footer details.Even i read the readme.txt they said simply apply u5352734.drv file but i dont knw how to apply and where to apply this file.
please guide me if any one know how to do this?..
with regards
Ram

For seeing the header footer on the xml publisher desktop you need to Patch 5579683
and follow these instructions
1. From Template Builder, select Help -> About Template Builder.
2. Go to the Workspace directory and change to the subdirectory jlib.
3. Rename existing xdocore.jar and copy xdocore.jar from this patch.
You can find the patch on metalink.
Hope this helps.
Thanks,

Need to output data to TXT with static header and footer but multiple rows

Using APEX 4.0 and 11g - The only way I could find to get data out of APEX in TXT format was to use htp.prn. I load a cursor with the data and this works fine, the problem is that I need to have the file start with a string (*:P9_HEADER_STRING*) but it can only appear once in the output.
Is there a way to add the *:P9_HEADER_STRING* to the output in a single TXT file? or is there another way I should be doing this?
This is what I have now: The *:P9_HEADER_STRING* is in the loop which I know it can't be, but I can't figure out how to concatenate this string to the output from the loop. The rank() is being used because I can only send the selected number of records, ranked from highest. (I will have to do the same thing with a footer too, but that variable isn't in here yet)
begin
-- Set the MIME type
owa_util.mime_header( 'application/octet', FALSE );
-- Set the name of the file
htp.p('Content-Disposition: attachment; filename="cra_outgoing.txt"');
-- Close the HTTP Header
owa_util.http_header_close;
-- Loop through all rows in CLIENT_TABLE
for x in (select * from (select XREF_NBR
, TOT_AMT
, '' SPOUSE_INFO
, '' PHONES
, NAME
, SURNAME
, '' MARITAL_STATUS
, '' EMPLOYER_INFO
, GENDER
, '' CO_ADDRESS
, '' PREV_ADDRESS
, POSTAL_CODE
, ADDRESS1
, '' FILLER
, rank() over (order by tot_amt desc, rownum asc) rn
from client_table c where c.File_Seq_Nbr is NULL and c.xref_nbr in (select xref_nbr from ticket_table where to_char(ticket_issue_date, 'YYYY-MM-DD') between :P7_START_DATE and :P7_END_DATE))
where rn <= :P7_NUMBER_RECORDS)
loop
-- Print out a portion of a row,
-- separated by commas and ended by a CR
htp.prn( *:P9_HEADER_STRING* || '03' || lpad(X.XREF_NBR, 12) || lpad(x.TOT_FINE_AMT, 11, '0') || '0201'|| lpad(x.NAME, 30) || lpad(x.SPOUSE_INFO, 60) || '00000000000000000000'|| x.DATE_OF_BIRTH || '0000000000000000' || x.GENDER || x.MARITAL_STATUS || lpad(x.EMPLOYER_INFO, 60) || lpad(x.CO_ADDRESS, 102) || lpad(x.ADDRESS1, 30) || lpad(x.POSTAL_CODE, 9) || lpad(x.FILLER, 21) );
end loop;
-- Send an error code so that the
-- rest of the HTML does not render
htmldb_application.g_unrecoverable_error := true;
end;

Yes, I've already done that, hence this part of the code I pasted above:
begin
-- Set the MIME type
owa_util.mime_header( 'application/octet', FALSE );
-- Set the name of the file
htp.p('Content-Disposition: attachment; filename="cra_outgoing.txt"');
-- Close the HTTP Header
owa_util.http_header_close;
-- Loop through all rows in CLIENT_TABLE
-- Send an error code so that the
-- rest of the HTML does not render
htmldb_application.g_unrecoverable_error := true;
end;
I've solved my problem by loading the cursor data into a variable (inside the loop) and concatenating the header info to it (outside the loop). This works when there are only a few records but as soon as I get to 32767 bytes it's throwing an error because of the size. So that's a different issue altogether.

Need to modify header & footer of all Word documents in a SharePoint library

We have lots of Word documents in a library where we need to adjust all of the documents' header region's distance from top of page. (A standard setting under the Header & Footer tab in Word). Since we wouldn't want to do this manually for all these
docs, I am looking for a solution to update these by running a script or something. Any way of doing this by Powershell, or other suggestions?
Henning

I am having trouble getting the script to do it's thing. I seem to have gotten it to run through the right document library, but it fails right at the start. Seems to me that it can't get to load the template file to get the header of the template. Can you
see what the problem is from the log? I included the initial errors from start to opening the first file in the library.

Report header/footer not getting displayed ondashboard

We added deault header/footer to OBI reports as per the steps given in OBI Presentation services
administrator guide (section 3: Administering Oracle BI Answers):
By adding xml code as below under 'OracleBIData\web\msgdb\customMessages' folder
<WebMessage name="kuiCriteriaDefaultViewElements" translate="no"><HTML>
<view signature="compoundView" >
<pageProps pageSize="a4">
<pageFooter showOnDashboard="true" show="true">
<zone type="top"><caption>Footer Text</caption>
<displayFormat fontColor="#FF0000"/></zone>
</pageFooter>
</pageProps>
</view>
</HTML>
</WebMessage>
The 'Footer text' is coming in all new requests created, but when we add that request to a
dashboard as embedded section, the footer is not displayed. Can anybody please provide some
information that how we can get any customized text/link added in report footer to get displayed
on the dashboard page.
Thanks!

Hi..
yes, whatever the headers/footers you have mentioned in report will not be shown in dashboard..
But if you mention the report link - download (don't specify headers/footers for dashboard at this time), when you download that report you can see the headers/footers in that report..
But when you use download option for whole dashboard, you can't see those h/f s unless you mention the h/f s for the dashboard...
This is expected, because when user download the dashboard he shouldn't see the 2 h/f s.
So, you need to mention the print pdf s in edit dashboard.
Hope it's clear..
Thanks & Regards

What to do if Add Header/Footer tool and Bates Numbering tool both get error message? File too big?

Hello,
I'm working with a 700 page / 103 Mo PDF that I need to put page numbers on. Both the Header/Footer tool and the Bates numbering tool result in error messages.
'An error occurred while retrieving the contents of the page.'
I suspect this is because the PDF was made by assembling 30 smaller PDFs via Preview and never down-sized during the process. I would imagine that would create a kind of clunky file. Or maybe it's simply the size that is overloading the software.
Does anyone have any advice on a fix or a workaround for this? I need to put page numbers on. I really want to put them on the composite PDF (going back to the 30 original PDFs would be a real headache for a lot of reasons.)
Thanks!

Hi Eliza,
Your suspicion is right. It might be possible that assembling different pdf's together created from different applications might be the issue.
Try printing the pdf to Adobe pdf printer and then try adding the page numbers and check.

Rave

When attempting to open a hyperlink to a PDF file on the web from a Microsoft WORD for Mac 2011 (14.3.9) document, Safari 7.0 instead displays the file as text?

When attempting to open a hyperlink to a PDF file on the web from a Microsoft WORD for Mac 2011 (14.3.9) document, Safari 7.0 instead displays the file as text?

As seen in http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/mac/forum/macoffice2011-macword/has-the-word- 2011-for-mac-invisible-toolbars/018a3ab6-0570-4ad5-abf8-5b6427fdde3e?msgId=e111b f0a-0e32-4fa3-9536-f349dad8439d
and it worked for me:
1. Quit Word
2. In the Finder's menu bar, select Go > Go to folder and type or paste: ~/Library/Preferences/
3. Click on Go
4. Locate the preference file com.microsoft.Word.plist, then Option-drag it to the desktop to create a backup copy
5. Go to Applications/Utilities and open Terminal
6. Paste the following bold command at the $ prompt (it's a single line):
defaults write com.microsoft.Word 14\\Toolbars\\Show_HIToolbar -boolean TRUE
7. Press Return and then quit with Command Q
8. Start Word and test. If the fix works, trash the backup file in the Desktop file. Otherwise, restore it.
In the original source the author also mentions the change in Word 2008

Problem displaying Word 2002 RTF files in JEditorPane

Hi all,
I am having a problem displaying RTF files created in Word 2002/Office XP in a JEditorPane.
Our code, which does the usual stuff:
JEditorPane uiViewNarrativeEda = new JEditorPane();
uiViewNarrativeEda.setContentType(new RTFEditorKit().getContentType());
FileInputStream inDocument = new FileInputStream("c:/temp/testing.rtf"); uiViewNarrativeEda.read(inDocument, "");
inDocument.close();
works just FINE with RTF files created in Word 97, WordPad etc, but it seems that Word 2002 adds some tags to the RTF file that the RTFReader cannot handle.
For example, I believe the following exception is due to the new \stylesheet section that Word 2002 adds to the RTF file:
java.lang.NullPointerException:
 at javax.swing.text.rtf.RTFReader$StylesheetDestination$StyleDefiningDestination.close(RTFReader.java:924)
 at javax.swing.text.rtf.RTFReader.setRTFDestination(RTFReader.java:254)
 at javax.swing.text.rtf.RTFReader.handleKeyword(RTFReader.java:484)
 at javax.swing.text.rtf.RTFParser.write(RTFParser.java, Compiled Code)
 at javax.swing.text.rtf.AbstractFilter.readFromReader(AbstractFilter.java:111)
 at javax.swing.text.rtf.RTFEditorKit.read(RTFEditorKit.java:129)
 at javax.swing.text.JTextComponent.read(JTextComponent.java:1326)
 at javax.swing.JEditorPane.read(JEditorPane.java:387)
Does anyone have similar problems or knows how I could get around this?
I thought about writing a parser that replaces the \stylesheet section with one that works but that seems a lot of work and it does not always work (I tried that by copying and pasting...).
Maybe I could replace the RTF converter that Word 2002 is using with another one - but how?

Hello again,
I found out that the 2002 version of MS Word writes a lot more of data into the file than e.g. Wordpad does.
There is one section that causes the problem, its called "\stylesheet".
My workaround (working in my case) is to wrap the input stream of the RTF document and remove this section (only in memory).
See example implementation:

Integration of the warpper looks like:
RtfInputStream inDocument = new RtfInputStream( new FileReader("test.rtf"));
Document doc = rtf.createDefaultDocument();
rtf.read(inDocument, doc, 0 );
Hope this helps - for me it did :-)
