Pdf extension changes to .dat when send a file via e-mail from adobe acrobat 9

to convert a file from microsoft word 2007 to PDF and send as an attachment via e-mail from adobe 9, the file is received with the extension changed to. dat, so recipients can not open it.
Can anyone help me with this.

What is the OS of the sending computer?
What mail client?
I receive plenty of files on my PC as .dat files, which come from Mac user(s), rename the extension to what I think they ought to be and have no further problem. (I cannot change the senders email settings where the problem originates)
If the receiver knows it is a pdf file, they can drag it into Acrobat, but renaming the extension serves future use.

  • How to send a file via e-mail with director

    Is it even possible to have a button in a free-standing
    projector that would send a file via e-mail, or open up an e-mail
    program and have the file attached and addressed? Or is it possible
    to put a file on a server? Of course, both of these methods would
    alert the user and ask for their permission.

    To just open the user's email program, you can use the
    standard lingo:
    goToNetPage(mailto:[email protected])
    That approach is kind of annoying because it actually opens
    an empty
    browser window then the user's email program. I don't think
    you can use
    that approach to send attachments though.
    A much better way is the fabulous DirectEmail xtra from
    DirectXtras.
    Check out their site:
    http://www.directxtras.com/demail_home.asp?UUID=1217348
    DirectEmail can do everything you are asking for (and more).
    It is
    cross-platform, shockwave safe, can handle text or HTML
    email, can do
    attachments, can use a mail server or not, and is really easy
    to use.
    The same company makes DirectFTP which you can get from:
    http://www.directxtras.com/DFTP_home.asp?UUID=1217348
    DirectFTP can put files onto an FTP site with a minimum of
    fuss. I have
    used both on quite a few occasions and they rock. You can
    actually
    write a full-fledged email or ftp program with those xtras
    and Director.

  • Date formatting issue when sending excel file via mail

    hello People ,
    I am facing date issue .
    I have inetrnal format of date as yyyymmdd.
    I am converting it into  YYYY-MM-DD.
    CONCATENATE gs_output-end_date(4)
                        gs_output-end_date+4(2)
                        gs_output-end_date+6(2)
                        INTO lv_date_to SEPARATED BY gc_seperator. " gc_separator = '-'.
            gs_output-end_date = lv_date_to.
    I am writing this date and sending an excel file via MAIL . I get date result as MM/DD/YYYY always.
    Now if i pass in YYYY.MM.DD and used the same code where gc_separtor = '.'.
    I get output as YYYY.MM.DD.
    Can any one give me an idea why in format YYYY-MM-DD it is getting overwritten but for yyyy.mm.dd it gives me as yyyy.mm.dd?

    Thanks , Rohit ,
    I have change my date format in SU01 settings .
    It is now made to [ YYYY-MM-DD] but still '-' is replaced by MM/DD/YYYY.
    Also note that when i format in the following way
       CONCATENATE gs_output-rdadate(4)
                        gs_output-rdadate+4(2)
                        gs_output-rdadate+6(2)
                        INTO lv_rda_date.
    instead of
       CONCATENATE gs_output-rdadate(4)
                        gs_output-rdadate+4(2)
                        gs_output-rdadate+6(2)
                        INTO lv_rda_date sepearted by '-'.
    I get output as YYYYMMDD.

  • I've exported my pages graphics document as a PDF file and can't seem to reduce the file size without compromising the quality of the photo's used even after choosing "best" quality.  I'm trying to send the file via e-mail but it's too big.  ??????

    I am trying to e-mail a graphics pages document I made as a PDF file.  After trying to resize the file, the photo's quality is compromised (really blurry) even after choosing "Best" quality.  What am I doing wrong.  As a regular full sized file (PDF) it's fine, but when it gets reduced, it's bad and it needs to get printed from the e-mail copy I'm trying to send.  HELP! Please.

    If there are a lot and/or large images the file will inevitably be large, no matter what.
    You can reduce them down as far as possible by cropping and scaling them to the final size before creating the pdf. You can do this by opening the images in Preview .app and using Menu > Tools to reduce the resolution and to crop.
    If you have used transparency effects eg shadow, reflection, transparency, 3D charts, OSX will by default render these at 72dpi in the pdf.

    including transferred file size (the length of the text)
    example the length of the text of 887 characters

    here should be used properties of a file (its length) to the final fail.csv not contain spaces. if I'm wrong and popravte me please
    the problem is that Fail eventually contain spaces, if I'm right and the function should work as described above may have some notes to fix the problem with spaces

  • Send Daily Reports via E-mail from MARS

    Hi!
    I want to know if the MARS can send via email daily reports to a specific account.
    Thanks for any help.

    well, you could start by logging into the MARS CLI as pnadmin. Use tcpdump to monitor the SMTP traffic.
    [pnadmin]$ tcpdump -X port 25
    Now select the report and click "resubmit". You should see the SMTP traffic to the mail server. You can probably troubleshoot by looking at the ASCII output from tcpdump. If not, look at the tcpdump output and at least make sure the connection is to the right IP address and that some data is exchanged after the initial TCP handshake. Now take a look at the mail server logs, which should give you an idea of what to do next.

  • I have multiple devices backed up to the same computer each with different data. how do i keep them from syncing all data when i back up or transfer stuff from the computer to a device?

    i have multiple devices backed up to the same computer each with different data. how do i keep them from syncing all data when i back up or transfer stuff from the computer to a device? one is an iphone 6 and the others are ipad mini first gens, each ipad has 64gb and the iphone has 128, need to keep the data seperate as they are not all mine

    Itunes content and pics are NOT part of the backup that itunes performs.
    Backing up, updating, and restoring iPad, iPod touch, and iPhone software
    You should transfer any purchases from iphone regularly:  File>Transfer Purchases  , if they fail to be transferred when you sync.
    You buy one and only one download.  It is your responsibility to move/copy/backup your purchases.
    You can try contacting itunes support and asking for an exception, but they are under no obligation to allow.

    You are attempting to download the picture to your computer not uploading photo to the website if I am understanding you correctly.

  • I have Adobe Design CS6, suddenly a simple PDF will not open. Noting happens when I doubleclick either the file or try to open Adobe Acrobat X Pro

    I have Adobe Design CS6, suddenly a simple PDF will not open. Noting happens when I doubleclick either the file or try to open Adobe Acrobat X Pro ?

    Hi Jenny, I just had to do that, for the 3rd time. It is a pity though when one pays for such expensive software that this happens, specifically when the only Adobe help is to tell you to post your problem on a forum and hope someone can help you. Not good enough and not what I expected when I bought it. I am so disappointed in Adobe.

  • Problem sending PDFs from Adobe Acrobat with Email

    All the sudden when I send emails from Adobe Acrobat XI Pro it does not recognize my default mail program (Microsoft Outlook 2013). I've gone to "Edit > Preferences..." and then email accounts. It has the "Default email application (Microsoft Outlook)" checked. But it still persists with the error: "Either there is no default mail client or the current mail client cannot fulfill the messaging requests. Please run Microsoft Outlook and set it as the default mail client."I've set the default mail client as outlook. This service used to work and then all the sudden it stopped working.

    Was the e-mail option working with Outlook 2013 in the past or did you just install OFFICE 2013 and are now having the problem?

  • How to send purchase order via e-mail.

    Please could someone let me know how to send purchase order via e-mail.

    No, you do not need to touch ME_PRINT_PO. You need to put code before and after ME_PRINT_PO in the print program.
    Step 1 - Copy the standard print program SAPFM06P to make a Z version, lets call it ZSAPFM06P
    Step 2 - Copy include FM06PE02 to make a Z version, lets call that ZFM06PE02.
    Step 3 - ZSAPFM06P change the statement "Include FM06PE02" to read "Include ZFM06PE02".
    Step 4 - In include ZFM06PE02 you will find a subroutine called "ENTRY_NEU". In this subroutine you will see it first calls ME_READ_PO_FOR_PRINTING then calls ME_PRINT_PO. Before it calls ME_PRINT_PO just put:
    l_nast-nacha = 1.
    CLEAR l_nast-dimme.
    This means that ME_PRINT_PO will not e-mail, it will create a spool request.
    Step 5 - Still in ZFM06PE02, after ME_PRINT_PO has been called, add new code. First check that ent_retco EQ 0. If it does not then exit.
    Step 6 - Get the spool ID created by ME_PRINT_PO by either moving sy-msgv1 to a variable or select from NAST.
    Step 7 - Call function CONVERT_OTFSPOOLJOB_2_PDF using the spool ID from step 6, and put the result from table PDF into an internal table you can use later. ALso store the export variable pdf_bytecount, you will need it later.
    Step 8 - Call function SX_TABLE_LINE_WIDTH_CHANGE using the table from step 7 as content_in and put the results from content_out into a new internal table.
    Step 9 - Add some text into a internal table of type solisti1, this will be the body text of the e-mail.
    Step 10 - Add whatever receivers you want into an internal table of type somlreci1. If you just want it to go to the address that the PO would have gone to anyway, select the e-mail address from ADR6 where the address number = l_doc-xekko-adrnr, that is the data from the PO.
    Step 11 - Populate an internal table of type sopcklsti1 with data relevant to your PDF table from step 8 and the text table from step 9. You will have to put the size of the PDF from step 7 (pdf_bytecount) on the PDF line and the size of the text will be the number of lines of text * 255.
    Step 12 - Add info to a structure of type sodocchgi1. You can add the e-mail title in here, field obj_descr. Also add the size of the PDF and the size of the text from step 12 into doc_size, and give the doc a name in field obj_name. This can be anything, ZPDFPO for example.
    Step 13 - Call SO_DOCUMENT_SEND_API1 using the tables from steps 8, 9, 10 and 11 and the structure from step 12. You can amend the sending e-mail also. Set commit_work to space.
    Step 14 - That is all you need, but I actually call function RSPO_R_RDELETE_SPOOLREQ to delete the spool request created in step 4, then call NAST_PROTOCOL_UPDATE to add some more messages to the processing log of the PO.
    That is all.

  • Sending .fdf file via email + exiting full screen mode

    Hi everyone,
    I have the following code attached to a button on a pdf form that sends the form data in a .fdf file via email:
    var f = this.getField("useraddress");
    this.mailForm(true, f.value, "", "", "RSVP");
    Apparently the following line gets the user address from a field:
    var f = this.getField("useraddress");
    I created a field called "useraddress" and set it to be hidden but I don't know how to have my email address continually popuate this field so that it can be used in the above code to automatically send the .fdf file to my address.
    Would someone be able to tell me how I'd do this?
    Also just one other question if that's okay?
    The pdf is set to open up in full screen mode automatically. I want to add a button that will take the viewer out of full screen mode but I'm not sure what the code would be to do this. Can someone tell me how to do this also?
    Thanks in advance for any help.

    Yeah I probably should - I'm not that familiar with javascript so I didn't know I could. Have worked out the correct way now so thanks.
    I also noticed that when the .fdf file is attached, Acrobat names the file with a generic file name, eg. ACR5037112.fdf - is there a way to automatically name the file with the contents of one of the fields in the form?
    Also, do you have an idea of what the code would be to exit out of fullscreen mode when a button is clicked?
