PDF/A results in non-functional links in Table of Contents -- Normal?
Hey,
Got a quick Q here - I recently converted a .docx into the PDF/A 1-b (2005) standard, but for whatever reason, save the computer that did the actual conversion, the links in my Table of Contents no longer function.
If I use Preflight to remove the PDF/A tag, the links work OK. Is there something about PDF/A that removes linking functionality that I'm not aware of? These links on my document simply move to different parts of the document, nothing too fancy.
Thanks.
Hmmm. I hadn't heard of this limitation. Indeed, http://www.pdfa.org/2011/08/pdfa-–-a-look-at-the-technical-side/ says "With regard to hyperlinks, the special ‘Link’ annotation type is permitted with or without activated ‘Appearance’. " Maybe this document is being generated with a different kind of annotation.

SAP Portal development-Table Controls having link to table cell content
Hello all,
I am creating the SAP portal in which i am using Table controls to display the data. I want the function should be called whenever user clicks the table cell content. i.e. i want to create the function link to table cell.
Please reply soon.
Regards,
PrashantHi Prashant,
You haven't mentioned if you are using Webdynpro or HTMLB JSPDynPages.
If its the webdynpro, you can declare then and there itself that the content to the table column is a row my changing the property.
If it is a HTMLB component TableVIew that you are trying to use, you can include a TableCellRenderer Class which renders the cells of the table at the runtime as links or buttons or whatever you want to put.
So let me know, what exactly you are trying to use, then finding a solution will be more clear.
regards,

Creating PDF with links in Table of Contents
How do I convert a Word file (in which the page numbers in the Table of Contents are links to their corresponding headings) to a PDF file so that the page numbers in the Table of Contents are still liinks to their corresponding headings? I am working with Adobe Acrobat 9 Pro. Thanks!

Acrobat X, Word 2011, and Links in Table of Contents
I have a 300+ page document in Word 2011, with a Table of Contents that has been automatically generated by Word, based off headings.
When I "print" the document using "Save as Adobe PDF" from the Print dialouge, the PDF comes up, but the links in the ToC no longer work.
I've looked online for a solution, but I am noticing two things:
1) The option to turn the ToC links into Hyperlinks is not present on the Mac version of Word (2011).
2) I opened the file in Word 2010 on a PC, and enabled the above feature, and then brought it back to my Mac and Word 2011 - the links now seem active in Word. However, when I convert it to PDF, the links still do not work in the PDF.
Is there an automated way to make the links convert, or to add them to the PDF? With 300+ pages, a Table of Contents with working links is almost essential for navigation.
Thank you!That's a defect (bug) in Adobe(Mac) that has been going on for 15 years and Adobe refuse to admit it and fix it. In Reference to Links.
The only work around is to use iWork's Pages.
The links should be active. Then Create the PDF from there The links should be live.
I've heard you can do the same thing with Preview, But haven't tried. I know Pages will.
Its no wonder that Apple won't allow Flash on the iPad. Besides not fixing Flash issues on the Mac paltform, They have a history of refusing to fix problems with Acrobat on The Mac Platform. -

"Create Link" in table of contents being overwritten?
Hello community,
I'm using Acrobat X. Just one item in my table of contents is linking incorrectly. I've deleted the link and tried making new ones by:
Using the Link tool under Tools > Content.
Right-clicking the text and selecting "Create Link."
For some reason the link keeps taking me past the heading I want and onto the start of the following page. Text is about 2/3 of the way down on the page. I can link anywhere else in the document just fine -- even higher up on the same page. Just not around this one particular heading.
Any ideas why this is happening? It's driving me mad.
Thanks in advance.Try using the go to a page view action for the link.

When I publish some of my projects, the pdf won't play if it has a table of contents.
I've been asked to provide .pdf versions of the published projects, and when I open some of them, they look like this:
I am using Captivate 5.5, and if I uncheck "Show TOC" in the Project > Table of Contents menu, the course will play normally. Since I need to include the TOC in the course, I need to fix this.
Thanks for any replies.Hi,

Pop-up ads and non-functional links in Safari upgrade
I have recently upgraded my imac from OSX10.5.8 to OSX10.6 and have made all the necessary upgrades to be as current as I can, this means I now have OSX10.6.8 and Safari 5.1.7. However, everytime I use Safari I get several pop-up "sponsored ads" that appear in the bottom right-hand corner, even with the "block pop-up windows" box checked in preferences. Also, sometimes when I click on links, a new tab opens but nothing comes up (the address space is blank, these links work fine in Firefox), or the link will take me to an ad website, a search-engine website, or some other website that has nothing to do with the link I clicked on; when I go back and click the link again, it takes me to the right place. I tried using Firefox but the pop-up ads still appeared, so this is obviously not stricly a Safari problem. However, these problems were not there before I upgraded my software. Any thoughts? I have checked my extensions in preferences and I only have two: A DivX plus web player, and a Safari flash player.
thanks in advanceThey're not pop-ups. How do you expect any software to distinguish between the ad videos and the actual video you want to see?

Writing the results of JavaScript function to a table.
Hi - I used the javascript from the post below to calculate a field based on two other fields. It works fine, but is only displaying it - not assigning it to the page item.
How can I assign the result to a page item so that it is processed with the auto DML when the page is submitted?
Thanks,
Matt

List view of PDF Table of Contents missing
In iBooks, PDF files can have two types of Table of Contents, thumbnail view and list view. My problem is some of my PDF files lack the list view of the table of contents.
I'm under the impression that the list view TOC in iBooks is created from the bookmarks that exist in the PDF file before importing into iBooks. I've been successful in adding new subheadings in the TOC by modifying the bookmarks in the PDF file before installing to iBooks, so I'll be surprised if that's not the case.
I have two files that have bookmarks in the original PDF file, but when I import into iBooks, there is no option for a list view of the TOC, only the thumbnail view. Can anyone offer any help as to why a PDF file with bookmarks won't show a list view TOC when imported into iBooks?
While we're at it, when you tap on the TOC button in a PDF file in iBooks, it always takes me to the thumbnails view. I would prefer it default to the list view. Is there any way to do that?
Thanks.There may be more user-friendly ways of doing this, but here's one way:
Open Terminal (in the Utilities folder).
Use "cd" to change directory to the folder you want to print
eg cd /Users/myuser/Documents
Use "ls" to list the contents to a file
ls -al > filelist.txt
You can then open the filelist.txt file from Finder in TextEdit and print it.

Poor implementation: image bugs and PDF TOC non functional
I have just completed my new eBook, which I made the mistake of writing in Pages 5 (latest version).
First, the Table of Contents is no longer active in teh exported PDF.
Second, I had an awful lot of buggy behaviour in this picture-rich book. Pictures mirroring; randomly changing pages; being swapped; losing the "keep with text" option; not being able to go where I want them; etc.
But worst of all, when I try to go back by exprting to Pages 09, that seems ot work.. expcet Pages 09 then says "The document <name> couldn't be opened".
I seem stuck. Any workarounds, anyone?

I may be off base here, but do I remember correctly a post from this year or last where someone ran up against a aggregate image size ceiling in Pages ’09 while creating a book. If that condition is in fact true, and Pages v5 increased this ceiling, but fails to check for it in Pages ’09 exports, could this be a contributing factor in the current issue? -
Wired interface non-functional
So I have a most unusual problem with a mac mini server that is driving me banana's that I hope someone in the Apple community has run into, and found a decent solution..
The mac mini (2.3GHz quad core i7, late 2012) is running 10.9 and server 3.0.1. I did an upgrade from 10.8 (and whatever the previous version server was)..
Since then the wired ethernet interface (en0) literally stopped working. (Links up, but no connectivity.. no ping, it does not even send an ARP)
Data points about the problem.
- It worked flawlessly up until the upgrade to 10.9.
- wireless interface is still fine, static or dhcp.
- The IP is statically configured via System preferences - Network.
- ifconfig in terminal show NO IPADDRESS assigned to the interface.
- if I reconfigure the interface to DHCP, it will not receive an IP and ends up with an APIPA address..
- if I go into terminal and 'ifconfig en0 down' then 'ifconfig en0 <IP> up' the interface works again until restart. It will also correctly display the IP in terminal.
- If I reset, it goes back into this same state (network preferences shows proper config, ifconfig does not, and the interface is non functional)
- If I then go to cli, and manually ifconfig down then up, all is good again.. Doing so from system prefs has no affect..
Here is where it gets really interesting, and why I am convinced this is a software issue.. I did a clean install of 10.9 and Server on an external USB disk, and things work exactly as expected if I boot from that Volume.. If I boot from the internal drive, Its in the broken state again..
This absolutelty tells me its some kind of software issue, and I am out of ideas short of wiping the internal drive, and reloading all the data from scratch..
Anyone else run into this? If yes, were you able to fix it without wiping/reloading?First, thank you for taking the time to respond and offering great ideas..
I'd delete the interface & recreate it.
In 'System Preferences > Network tab' select the ethernet, click the - button. Then add it again. Reboot & see if it has any effect.
- Had no affect.. More accurately, it works the same as doing ifconfig down/up in cli, where the interface will work again until the next reboot.
See what appears in Console (Spotlight search for it) in the 'All messages" section when you remove connect the ethernet.
- Log messages are below.. Interestingly, I do not get the failure messages that I have highlighted in red on another machine that is is also running 10.9, with server loaded.

Have you tried changing the port on the switch it is connected to?
- Yes, for ease of testing I have it plugged directly into my MacBook Pro (I also tried new cable first )
Does safe mode have any effect?
- No, Same results.
Again, booting the machine from a clean install on a USB disk, does not show the issue.. I’ve got a lot of data on the machine, so I am doing anything I can to avoid wiping and reloading it all.. Ive added the output of etrecheck, in case its of any help.
