PDF Files and AOL uses

I have a contact who is a AOL user - my problem is that when I send him a PDF file he is never able to open it although he has upto date Adobe Acrobat software. Has any one else have this problem ?
I use G5 1.6 with OS 10.4.9
Thank you
Mike

Problem might be the screen setting. If you are not embedding fonts, this might cause problems - especially going across platforms. Try different options, instead of Screen, try Print, then Press\, see if any of these work (both print and press embed fonts) don't subset fonts, embed the whole thing. I suggest you set your compatibility to Acrobat 4 (PDF version 1.3). This may solve some cross-platform issues involving transparancies, fonts etc. In essence you are flattening the file before creating it ....

I tried opening a pdf file and I set it to use always and firefox which did not work, I was wondering how to undo that and what I should use to open pdf files in the future?

I was attempting to open a document from a frequently used site, I had never been on, on my new mac however. I attempted to open the pdf file and was given the option of which program to use to open it, I mistakenly clicked use always and firefox as the program with which to open pdf files. I do not know how to undo this or what I should do in the future to access the pdf files.

Hi Melfour-
Here is a Support article detailing how to work with your Firefox PDF preferences:

How to use OLE2 to call "Adobe" to open a PDF file and print it out

I would like to print out PDF file when use click a button on the FORM. Anyone knows how to do it?

I would like to know how to do it too; but I am still using Developer 6i.
I have a bunch of PDF files and would like to print them inside of FORM.
I am using the HOST command like host('C:\Program Files\Adobe\Reader 8.0\Reader\AcroRd32.exe /p/h 123.pdf') to do it now; however, the problem is that I have to physically close "ADOBE" everytime, otherwise, the next PDF cannot be printed.
Please advise how to do it Form6i?

when I have a pdf file open, I used to be able to click on "Bookmarks" tab on left side and allow me to click on each individual page and delete if I needed to. Now when I click on the Bookmarks tab, that section is empty. How can I get it to show each page again?

Hi chrismarks1,
I think you may be confusing bookmarks with thumbnails. If you click the Page Thumbnails icon (the one above the Bookmarks icon), then you can delete a page by clicking its thumbnail, and clicking the Delete Pages icon (the trashcan icon). Just make sure that you're viewing the PDF file in Acrobat (rather than Acrobat Reader), as you can't delete pages from Reader.

Hi,
I am facing the same problem. Please help me out. I just want to read a PDF file as bytes from one location and write it as another pdf file in some other location with a diolog box prompting to open or save in the location where we want.
I executed the following code:
try{
File report =new File(location);
BufferedInputStream in=new BufferedInputStream(new FileInputStream(report));
response.setContentType("application/x-download");
response.setHeader("Content-Disposition", "attachment; filename=" + report.getName());
OutputStream outs = response.getOutputStream();
int readlen;
byte buffer[] = new byte[ 256 ];
while( (readlen = in.read( buffer )) != -1 )
outs.write( buffer, 0, readlen );
outs.flush();
outs.close();
in.close();
response.setStatus(HttpServletResponse.SC_OK);
} catch (FileNotFoundException fileNotFoundException) {
PrintWriter out= response.getWriter();
out.print("<center><Font color = 'RED'><b>"+PxDSLUtils.getApplicationProperty("label.error.CTM_E017")+"</b></Font></center>");
Though it prompts with open, save dialog box when i try to open directly or when i save it some where locally and then open it i am getting the following message " File is repaired ot damaged.Operation failed." Any idea about what can be done??? Its very urgent.Please suggest.
I am not convetin to string just reading and writng as bytes itself.
Thanks in advance,

The PDF file and slideshow view corrupted using iPhoto. Macbook air only get corrupted slideshow and Mac Mini both slideshow and PDF file is corrupted.

The PDF file and slideshow view corrupted using iPhoto. Macbook air only get corrupted slideshow and Mac Mini both slideshow and PDF file is corrupted.

Saving as a PDF file for some users have been a problem. If you boot into Safe Mode and run iPhoto you can create undamaged PDF files. We don't know why the problem but this is a workaround.
This problem prevents many from ordering books, calendars and cards since iPhoto creates PDF file of them for uploading and printing. Booting into Safe Mode lets them successfully order those items.

Cannot download .pdf files and word docs from KM using Web Dynpro

Accessible PDF files and forms

I am beside myself with the lack of help and/or interest in the Accessiblity area. We have been mandated to make all our PDF files accessible on our Web site. We have been able to master many of the issues regarding tags and form fields, but still have questions regarding updating the original PDFs without loosing the tag structure.
Is there any options on the Adobe site that may concentrate on this area? I called tech support yesterday (Bronze contract), was on hold for 10 mins and got disconnected. After leaving my number, they never called me back again.

The point was not having to create the tags again in a new file before
replacing the pages containing the form fields in the old file. We have
many forms that get updated right up to the last minute and to go through
the tagging process is too time consuming. We do not use PDF Maker, but
produce all the PDFs directly out of InDesignCS3 to Adobe Acrobat
Professional (Distiller).
Thanks for your reply.

Accessible PDF files and forms
I am really suggesting replacing all of the pages. I was thinking that the
tag structure would go with the replacement and you would need to create
the other PDF with PDF Maker to keep the tagging. I may be wrong, but that
was the view I had. If you replace a single page, I am not sure what might
happen since that would generally not be done with PDF Maker.
Since you already have the application process going, it is probably
easiest for you to try the variations on replacing pages and such --
basically what I would be doing.

Hi... I would like to purchase a Tablet Sony Xperia Z 2 10.1 (the last one of the Z series) and I was told that Adobe does not support Sony anymore.... I need to be able to open and read Adobe PDF files and I would like to know if this tablet can still use Flash Player...
Is there anyo who can help me with this? I asked in the shop and I was told "yes of course" , but when I contacted Sony directly I was advised to check with Adobe as apparently in the recent months Adobe and Sony haven't been getting along anymore...

You may be mixing up two entirely different Adobe products.
1. Adobe Flash Player. Needed to view web pages designed with Flash. Not needed to view PDF files. Not available for Android (not just Sony).
2. Adobe Reader. Reads PDF files. However, the Android can also read most PDF files without needing Adobe Reader.

Is there a way to merge Static PDF files and PDF Forms

Hi All,
The issue I am facing is this: 1200+ PDF forms that employees
will need to sign. The docs are being created in MS Word, and all
have a standard signature block. We have prototyped using LiveCycle
Designer 8 to add fields to static PDF files (print Word files into
Acrobat, import into LiveCycle and paste in fields) but this is
pretty labor-intensive to use with a minimum of 1200 forms per
quarter.
The employee forms go into a CF8/Oracle library app (stored
as BLOBs) and served up for 7,000 or so employees to sign. Posted
data goes back into database.
Here is the issue:
Does anyone know any way to use some combination of cfpdf /
cfpdfform / cfdocument that will allow us to create ONE generic
signature block form, 1200 static PDF files, and merge them on the
fly?
<cfdocument> apparently does not allow PDF data to be
included with a <cfpdfform>, as I have tried outputting PDF
variables, toBinary(PDF variable), PDF served by <cfcontent>
and various other combinations.
(If the non-form data were HTML, we could easily output in a
<cfdocumentsection> of the cfdocument, and add the
<cfpdfform source="#genericForm#" action="populate"> and be
done with it. But, we can't.)
<cfpdf action="merge"> with a combination of a static
PDF file and a populated form results in a flattend PDF file with
no form data.
I am acutely aware that LiveCycle 8 uses the XFA schema, and
regular PDF documents use a different schema. And, this may
prohibit what we want to do.
If anyone has experience with CF8 PDFs and PDF forms, or has
any helpful thoughts, I would be appreciatively gross. Needless to
say, this is a six month project that must be live at the end
November.
Thanks!

As I mentioned on the other thread, the forms need to be
flattened. CFPDF cannot flatten LiveCycle forms, only Acrobat
Forms. The suggested solution was to use LiveCycle ES

To retrieve the PRT document (a PDF file) and insert the doc in PM order

Hello guys,
I have a challenging task in from printing as follows,
By using TC: IW3D we get print preview of PM Order Set (PM Print Program: YIPRJT01), currently the PRT document number prints in the PM Order. Now we have to insert the PRT documents (a PDF file) into the PM Order set rather than printing the PRT document number ( By using TC: IW33 by going OPERTIONAL TAB we will get the PRT document(a PDF file))
The requirement is to retrieve the PRT document (a PDF file) and insert the document in PM order set with out navigating separately by using the TC: IW33.
If you run the script in the print preview we can able to see PM the order set along with the PRT document (a PDF file).
Thanks & Regards
Vishnu

I'm also trying to print PRT document with shop papers and still not able to do so. I selected "P" for print on the control key and it should print but still didn't print.
If I understand it right, I think you are trying to do the same.
Have you resolved this issue ?
Thank you,
Sam

How to open a pdf file and then attach it with images

I am new to Indesign Server.
I'm currently working on a pdf.
I have a white blank pdf template.
that I want to attach/glue it with images.
How to open a pdf file and then attach it with images.
Please, help me.
Thanks.

First step would be to make yourself familiar with InDesign desktop version.
Whatever you intend to achieve, do it there manually. (see regular app docs or forums)
Then try to automate your steps with scripting (see scripting docs or forum)
If you can do it with a script in the desktop version, that script will likely also run in ID Server. (see server forum).
If you can specify missing features not achievable thru scripting or manual use, reconsider to write a plugin (this forum).
A seasoned C++ programmer will need a few months to learn the basics, wade thru tons of documentation etc. Alternatively consider to hire a consultant to do the development work for you.
