PDF books not exported in XML library

I just migrated from Windows XP to Windows 7.  I used my ITunes Library XML, and iTunes Playlist I'd previously saved to move and restore my iTunes music and video library.  That worked great,though I did have to re-tag some video files as "TV shows"
My iTunes library had tons of PDF files that I read on my iPad.  These did NOT get exported to the iTunes LIbrary XML.  Is this expected?
Looks like I'll have to manually re-add each of these.  Is there any way to create an XML (or other exported file) so I can save these as part
of a library?
Also, what file naming convention is used for PDF files.  I'd prefer not to re-add each file, then use "Get Info" to specify the author.
I assume the format is something like <Authoer>-<Title>, but I can't find this in my searches of community articles.
Thanks for any help!
Gary

If you'd copied the whole library, lock, stock, barrel, and most importantly the iTunes library.itl file, then it should have been as if nothing had changed.

    Hi
    I've a big problem with adobe acrobat reader XI pro and I hope you can help me.
    The problem is; when I past copied text from some pdf books (not all of them) it past symbols only! wherever I past it! and even if I coped that text from another pdf reader (adobe pdf reader, internet browsers, ...etc.).
    This problem started to happen since yesterday when I installed adobe acrobat reader XI pro to try it before I buy it, and before that when I was using the free adobe pdf reader I was totally able to copy any text from any pdf and past it anywhere with nothing wrong.
    What can I do?
    thank you a lot.

    There is no product called Adobe Acrobat Reader Pro. There is
    - Adobe Acrobat Pro ($$)
    - Adobe Reader (free)
    Which do you have? And are you a programmer?

  • Podcast pdf show notes appearing in Music library

    I subscribe to a podcast which posts both the mp3 audio file as well as pdf show notes. iTunes is confusing these pdf files as digital album booklets, and the pdfs are appearing in the music library, as well as in the podcasts library. The podcast mp3 audio files are ok, they do not appear in the music library, but stay in the podcasts library.
    I have noticed this behavious since iTunes 8. I am currently running iTunes 9.
    Anyone has any advise on how to correct this?

    I had a bunch of pdf files and other iTunesU files showing up in my Music list. The only way I could get this cleared up was to delete them and download again - the "KIND" category for some of these is new to iTunes and so with no classification, they will show up.
    You might be able to edit the info on these and add or change KIND values so they move to the right view.

  • Can I sync pdf books not to iBooks?

    When I sync my pdf library to iPad they go to iBooks. I do not like it because every new pdf page size I should adjust. Is it possible to sync my pdf library to another reader? Thanks.

    You can download another reader such as Adobe Reader and use file sharing to transfer the books into that app, but if you place the pdf files into your books library in iTunes, they will sync to iBooks.
    Adobe Reader is free (there are other free pdf apps as well) and it is a very good reader, you can orgainize into folders, rename, annotate .... this will explain how to use file sharing.

  • PDF layers not exporting

    Hi, I created a document in Indesign with layers.  I have that in acrobat and created buttons to show the different layers.  I click a button, and that layer shows up.  Great.  But when I submit or save the pdf, the layers do not show up visible upon opening that file.  I went into the layer properties and all layers have the 'Initial State' as 'Export When Visible' selected.   So, i would assume that any layers that i have visible would be saved or sent if the form is submitted.  But they are not.  Has anyone had this issue?  I'm not finding anything online about this.  The only thing that does fix this is if i print the file to pdf.
    Thanks,
    Jessica

    After posting I kept researching and found the following:
    If a PDF has been created with overprinting you must do two things to get the PDF to display properly and print.
    Enable Overprint Preview: Edit > Preferences > Page Display - Change "Use Overprint Preview" to "Always".  This will force the PDF to show everything.  You can turn the feature back off later if you wish.
    Enable Overprint Printing: File > Print - Click on Advanced button - Click on "Output" - Place a check in the box "Simulate Overprinting".  The PDF should print as it displays on the screen.

  • Custom font not exported in PDF

    Hello Guys,
    In my web application, I have a crystal report developed in CR11 R2 SP3. The report uses custom font and it works fine when shown in report viewer.
    However I get errors while exporting report as PDF.
    1) In windows 2003 server, the pdf is exported without the font values.
    2) In Windows XP, pdf is not exported at all and I get an error:
    Error in File C:
    WINDOWS
    TEMP
    CrystalReport1 {6A26233D-4832-44B1-AC8E-A21421F6A2E4}.rpt:
    Error detected by export DLL.
    Can anybody please help. One more thing. The custom font is fine and has been working fine in other crystal report based applications.
    Thanks,
    Shahzad

    Ok, two suggestions:
    A)
    1) On your web app that throws the error, place label and a text box on your web form
    2) Use the custom font for the label and in the text box
    3) Run the app
    Does that work?
    B)
    If it does, I'd recommend using filemon and regmon utilities to fins out what is failing. Filemon can be found here:
    http://www.microsoft.com/technet/sysinternals/utilities/filemon.mspx
    Regmon is here;
    http://www.microsoft.com/technet/sysinternals/utilities/regmon.mspx
    Instructions on how to use the above:
    1) Load Filemon
    2) Press Ctrl + L. This will bring up the filter window.
    3) In the 'include' text box, put the name of the aspnet worker process, without the full path. ie: aspnet_wp.exe (ok)
    4) Click <OK>
    5) Press Ctrl + X to clear the display.
    6) run your application, get it to the point where it errors.
    7) Save the filemon log. File -> Save as
    8) Look for files where the 'result' column is not successful.
    Regmon
    Here is how to use it:
    1) Load Regmon
    2) Press Ctrl + L. This will bring up the filter window.
    3) In the 'include' text box, put the name of the aspnet worker process, without the full path. ie: aspnet_wp.exe

  • ITunes v8.1 does not export music library in plain text w/proper CR/LFs?

    Just an FYI...I can recreate this every time. Has anyone else tried and seen the same issue with the new v8.1? I never had this issue with the previous iTunes release. Thanks!
    The new iTunes v8.1 released yesterday does not export the music library in plain text with proper CR/LFs.
    To recreate this bug:
    Select Music from your library
    Go to File -> Library -> Export Playlist...
    Save as a Music.txt and view the output file.
    You will see a continuous single line that contains correct tab separations. However, the correct end of the subject headers in addition to each song (which should be it's own line) is missing proper CR/LFs to format the file correctly.

    Seeing it with 8.1 under 10.4.11 too.
    I was really hoping that 8.1 was going to fix the problem with text export mangling accented characters, not to keep that bug and add a major new one on top of it!

  • Book not showing on iPad

    I bought a PDF book (not from the iBookstore) and added it to the books in iTunes for my iPad Air and then ran the sync and it showed the reduced available space showing the book was transferred to the ipad, but when I open iBooks on the iPad the book isn't there, only the two previously transferred books both bought from the iBookstore. I sync my iPhone and iPad with the Mac and not the iCloud but the other books transferred from the Mac. And iBooks on the Mac wobn't open the book, it's open it in Acrobat. This is a *** with iBooks or is it just how it works?

    Well, not quite.
    IBooks will open PDF's in iBooks you buy or get free from the Apple iBookstore.
    The PDF book you opened isn't from the iBookstore and yet you opened it in iBooks.
    It will sync PDF's you load into iTunes but iBooks on the iPad won't recognize and list them. I added the PDF to iTunes, it showed and uploaded it, but iBooks didn't show it.
    You may have added it to iTunes, but when it showed in the 'Books" tab when the iPad was connected to your computer, and you selected it, it could only have been recognised through the 'Books' tab which shows the books/pdfs you have in iBooks, not in iTunes. So, as I said earlier it's useless adding PDFs to iTunes for syncing. If it's not showing up in iBooks on your iPad you're either not syncing correctly or there is something wrong with the PDF. Here is a link to syncing pdfs and ebooks:
    https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-6832
    I don't use iCloud for backups as the backup through the iCloud removes your backups on your Mac. It's not an option, it's what it does, and once done, unless you have exported other backups, all you backups are on iCloud.
    Rubbish. Backing up to the iCloud doesn't delete any backups on your computer. Where'd you get that from?

  • How do i export a book that was set in pdf to kindle?I get a box that says i can not export the pdf file

    How do I export a pdf file over to Kindel ? When exporting ,i had a note saying I could not export that file. I did upgrade the pdf to send or export.

    Do you happen to have Dial Assist on? This is in Settings>Phone. This is what helps the phone identify international numbers when dialing, based on location. See if turning that off/on makes a difference. Unless you are making a number of international calls, I believe this can be left off. See the User Guide http://manuals.info.apple.com/MANUALS/1000/MA1565/en_US/iphone_user_guide.pdf  Page 49 has info regarding Dial Assist.

  • Export/Import xml from dynamic pdf form using java

    Hi,
    I have been searching for the last 2-3 days on the internet for this. Some posts do talk about it, but none have provided the answer I was looking for. Hopefully this is the correct forum to post the question in.
    I am working on a desktop swing application that works on extracting and changing data in a XFA form, I would like to export the form's content modify it and import it back using java. This is so easy with the Adobe Reader, where it nicley exports the form content as an XML document, you can change it manually and the import the data back. I am searching for a way of doing this in java. I found XPAAJ.jar mentioned in some forums, that may make this easy. I havent been able to use it, since I cant find it anywhere.
    I found a blog from Mike Potter
    http://blogs.adobe.com/mikepotter/2006/07/download_xpaaj.html
    This says that XPAAJ is free as long as I use it on forms developed using livecycle. I dont own livecycle, but the forms that I am working has been built using livecycle.  So my questions are:
    1. Is XPAAJ the correct library to use, to export and import XML data from a dynamic pdf form?
    2. Is XPAAJ free to use and distribute as long as it works on pdf forms developed by livecycle?
    3. Where can I download XPAAJ from?
    4. If XPAAj is no longer available, is there any other free library that does this?
    5. If there isn't any free library, how much would cost me to use and distribute the library along with my desktop application?
    Thanks
    Sethu

    Hi Sethu;
    First, its important to know that xpaaj never was a supported piece of software.  It was supplied "as is" with no support from Adobe.  It has been pulled and is no longer available from the Adobe web site.  Mike's blog is from 2006, so its really old information.
    1. Is XPAAJ the correct library to use, to export and import XML data from a dynamic pdf form?
    While the xpaaj library will import and export data to/from a form on the client, Adobe now recommends using the LiveCycle ES Forms server.
    2. Is XPAAJ free to use and distribute as long as it works on pdf forms developed by livecycle?
    The license stated that you need to own one of Adobe's server side products (not LiveCycle Designer, but one of the server side LiveCycle products).
    3. Where can I download XPAAJ from?
    XPAAJ was pulled by Adobe.  They found a few bugs and since it was unsupported software they just pulled it from the web site.
    4. If XPAAj is no longer available, is there any other free library that does this?
    Not from Adobe.  Adobe recommends using the LiveCycle ES Forms software for merging data and forms.
    5. If there isn't any free library, how much would cost me to use and distribute the library along with my desktop application?
    As far as I know there Adobe doesn't have a client side library available for this (merging dynamic XDP based forms with data).

  • How do i synch my pdf/books to my library. I was able to synch my ipod touch purchases by transferring them but can't figure out how to do my pdfs. Also why is my ipod picture greyed out-the one that lets my move the icons around.

    How do i synch my pdf/books to my Itunes  library. I was able to synch my ipod touch app purchases by transferring them but can't figure out how to do my pdfs. Also why is my ipod picture greyed out-the one that lets my move the icons around.
    I am afraid if i don't get the pdfs into my book library, i will lose them when i update to IOS 5-is that true?

    thank you-i have to check into the authorization and the account-i gave my husband my old ipod when i updated last year so both at one time have been on this computer but as it stands, it only comes up with my device when i plug into Itunes.
    i don't think i have any restrictions for installing apps although my normal way of doing it is to download from the ipod touch. i did find that all i had to do was right click on my device name and got the message to transfer my apps and then they showed up in my library. Also when i clicked the synch checkbox i was able to view the ipod touch picture without it being greyed out. after all that i was able toupdate to IOS 5 successfully except my videos and podcast, and pdfs  did not come over. This confuses me since i had dragged them over to my library to make sure that i had everything in my library and on my device. Not a big problem, since i just dragged them in itunes from my library to my device but sometimes i wonder if i understand the big picture:)

  • Table of Contents bookmarks not exporting to PDF (CS5)

    I have a 200 page book made up of 15 documents.  I've created a table of contents based on paragraph styles and the TOC generates and formats correctly.  When I create the TOC, the Create PDF Bookmarks box is checked.  When I export the whole book I've tried it with Create Tagged PDF checked and unchecked.
    After I export to PDF from the Book palette, the TOC items are links (at least they give me the pointer-hand icon) but they don't go anywhere.  The only one that does is the one in the same document as the TOC.  (I have tried the TOC both within a chapter and also in it's own document with no other links in it).  The behavior is the same in the Bookmarks pane - all are shown but only one works.  I've looked at several of the bookmarks' Properties > Actions.  It says its "Going to a page in another document" > (document-name-of-the-correct-chapter-but-with-pdf-instead-of-indd.pdf) > Page 1 (this is correct) > Zoom level: actual size.
    This isn't right - it's pointing to an imaginary pdf that doesn't exist.  It should be pointing to page X in the current document.
    Here's what I've tried:
    * restarting InDesign
    * restarting my machine
    * deleting the TOC and regenerating it
    * generating the book with all documents open or all documents closed
    * moving the TOC to its own document
    * probably some other things I've forgotten in the struggle
    All of the links and references in the individual documents are good.
    I've looked around these forums and this seems to be an ongoing and unsolved issue for other folks using older versions.  This is the closest I came to finding an answer but ended up with an Adobe employee logging it as a bug in 2009.  Bookmarks not exporting from InDesign to PDF in CS4                     By (c_goates)
    So here's hoping there is some new information.  I've been trying to get this to work for far too long and don't relish drawing bookmark boxes around all 55 of my text links.
    Specs: Max OS 10.6.6, CS5 (Version 7.0)
    Sorry this is so long, but details help, usually.  Thanks in advance for any advice. 

    There are some known problems with bookmarks and CS5 as well. As far as I know, the 7.0.3 update won't fix them, but it does solve some other problems, so you should install it.

  • Table of Contents will not export to PDF

    CS3: I have an InDesign Book with 10 documents in it. The first document is the Table of Contents which was created using ID's TOC feature.
    When I go to export that document to PDF, it acts like it's working, but the PDF is not made. There is no trace of a PDF in the folder.
    If I delete the Table of Contents text the file will make a PDF.
    If I try to export the entire book, the whole process just crashes.
    I tried exporting the doc to .inx (which I was able to do) and make the PDF and the same thing happens.
    Of course, this is a 300 page book and I'm on a deadline...
    The book also has bookmarks and hyperlinks throughout -- not sure if that would cause a problem
    Thanks for any thoughts! Jodi
