PDF Plug in - Tips

Hello all,
I downloaded the plugin that render pdf without a print server: http://www.apex-plugin.com/oracle-apex-plugins/region-plugin/embedded-pdf_65.html
I have already installed the plugin on the application and I have some questions:
1) How do I call the procedure/function of the plugin? I was checking the code and found function render_pdf
( p_region              in apex_plugin.t_region
, p_plugin              in apex_plugin.t_plugin
, p_is_printer_friendly in boolean
) 2) What is the parameters that I need to inform? Region static id, name or..?
Thanks,
Alan Martini.

Hello Anton,
I miss understood the In this case you create a new region based on the plugin , I was creating a Report Region and then looking for the link with the plug in.
For those who need it:
Create Region > Plug-ins > Then you select the Embedded PDF ( previously imported, download at http://www.apex-plugin.com/oracle-apex-plugins/region-plugin/embedded-pdf_65.html ), then you configure it the way you need ( width, height, header... );
Thanks for the tip and for the plug-in.
Kind Regards,
Alan Martini.

  • I have repeatibly loaded Adobe Acrobat Reader but the Plugin Check gives me Adobe Acrobat Adobe PDF Plug-In For Firefox and Netscape 10.0.1 Outdated Version Update. While the plug in check is important it is quite bothersome at present. Please help.

    EVERY TIME the browser boots it kicks off the plug in check. I understand that this is important but it is currently a pain. Once I update Adobe Acrobat Plug in the browser does not recognize that the plug in has been installed and keeps coming up and up an up an up.
    This is the message I get.

  • Adobe PDF Plug-in for Firefox & Netscape ''9.4.1'' was causing unresponsive problems on my browser and I had to disable it . Is there anything I can do about this?

    I was getting an unresponsive script warning on most web pages, but more persistent on Windows Live telling me to stop script or continue. I could view the pages by doing both and the only way i could stop the warnings from appearing was to disable the Adobe PDF Plug-in. Increasing the time for the script to run didn't seem to work either. It was taking too long for the pages to load and Firefox used to hang.
    After disabling the plug-in it stopped doing it.
    Does disabling it effect my browser in any other way?

    Hello Vivek,
    I have learned I do have the latest Adobe Reader installed and that the plug-in is included in that download & install. So apparently the problem lies with the Firefox plug-in checker.
    I did the ALT + H, while in FF, & deleted the file, retried update, using the Firefox Plug-in Checker w/same results.
    Then I exited FF, did the Windows key + R typed in %APPDATA% & located it then deleted it, and now wouldn't you know the Plug-In Checker is not working, (We've encountered an error. Please try your request again later.)
    Just gave it another shot & it's working . But still no joy, same results, showing the plug-in needs updating - being outdated version.

  • Adobe pdf plug in for firefox, 10.1.4 version, does not work but can not update to new version, why?

    Adobe pdf plug in does not work, when I tried to update following message appeared, "Adobe Reader 9.5.1 and lower has been blocked for your protection", how to solve this problem?

    Could you review/adjust your preference for which program opens PDFs? I'm not sure how that drop-list behaves when there are multiple Adobe plugins. You might need to physically remove an old plugin file or two to make sure Firefox is not trying to use the old one.
    * [[Use the Adobe Reader plugin to view or download PDF files]] <br>
    ''Edit: actually this article describe how to use the Options dialog Applications section to review/change the setting: [[How to disable the built-in PDF viewer and use another viewer]]''.
    * C:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Firefox\Plugins (only one want nppdf32.dll here)
    * In regedit.exe, check the following key for the source of obsolete plugins: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\MozillaPlugins
    Both the file that stores download handling preferences, and the file which registers plugins, can be renamed and Firefox will regenerate them, so those remains options for further actions as well.

  • How can I find a PDF plug in for Firefox 5 running on Mac OSX (10.6)

    I recently installed an Update and received a message that my PDF Plug In for Firefox would be disabled, but that when the Update had been installed the Plug in would be enabled. This has not happened.
    I am running Firefox 5 on Mac OSX (10.6)

    I've tried the download three times. It reports that installation was successful, but when I use Firefox I still get only an option to download the .pdf; I still can't read it within the browser. This fix WAS for Firefox 5.0, right?

  • Acrobat PDF plug-in is "outdated". How to update?

    Acrobat PDF plug-in is flagged as outdated by Firefox 19.0  browser. How to update?

    You might want to ask for the OS too.  Veriken, is this Windows and if so which version of Windows?  Or, is it Mac OS X and again which version of Mac OS X?

  • Acrobat v9.4.6 Update does not update Firefox v3.6 Adobe PDF Plug-In

    I have Acrobat Pro v9.4.6.252 and I havd used the Repair Acrobat Installation option but I notice that Firefox v3.6.22 and now Firefox v3.6.23 is still using Adobe Acrobat PDF Plug-In v9.4.5.236.  Should the repair Acrobat installation of Acrobat Pro not update the Firefox Plug-Ins as well?
    Just curious if anyone else noticed this as well.
    Thanks.

  • PDF Plug-in for Firefox on Macintosh Copy & Paste

    PDF Plug-in for Firefox on Macintosh needs to allow for copy and paste functionality using the keyboard instead of only working with a mouse click when filling out online forms.

    Yes, it's an identical copy (incl. version, dates and digitally-signed certs) as far as I can see on all these 3 folders located at C:\Program files\
    -> Adobe\Reader 9.0\Reader\Browser -> nppdf32.dll
    -> Mozilla Firefox\plugins -> nppdf32.dll
    -> Internet Explorer\PLUGINS -> nppdf32.dll <--- This folder and file
    Please also note that IE Activex controls (3 files - also at version 9.5.2.295) are located at  C:\Program files\Common files\Adobe\Acrobat\ActiveX\
    -> AcroPDF.dll (PDF Browser Control)
    -> AcroIEHelper.dll (Adobe PDF Helper for Internet Explorer) and
    -> AcroIEHelperShim.dll
    Weird indeed! Any ideas?

  • CID or ContractID for Firefox PDF Plug-in XPCOM (XPT)

    Can anyone at Adobe tell me the CID / ContractID for the Web2PDF Firefox plug-in for the XPCOM (IWeb2PDFComponent.xpt) component?
    For some reason, the XPT isn't loading and I wanted to try it by CID.
    web2pdfcomp_cinst = Components.classes["@adobe.com/Web2PDF/Web2PDFComponent;1"].createInstance(Components.int erfaces.IWeb2PDFComponent);
    Thanks to lazy coding, the plug-in fails silently because the // TODO was never done...
    catch(err)
            //TODO: Inform the user by displaying an appropriate message.
    I upgraded to Acrobat X specifically for the PDF plug-in support for Firefox, and it doesn't work.
    Thanks,

  • I downloaded program and now it says i;m missing a PDF plug in

    I downladed the program already but now when I try to open it says i'm missing a PDF plug in. Where do I find this and how do I fix it.?
    UGH!

    ashleigh,
    You may try to uninstall, run the Cleaner Tool and reinstall.
    Use the CC Cleaner Tool to solve installation problems | CC, CS3-CS6
    I doubt it is worth trying to (guess which you are missing and) struggle with the missing plugin, and there may be more things wrong even if you succeed.

  • PDF Plug-In For Firefox found at my IE Program Folder?

    Hi:
    During recent troubleshooting of my Adobe Reader 9.5.2 update's installation, I found a 'PLUGINS' folder containing a copy of the 'Adobe PDF Plug-In For Firefox (nppdf32.dll)', located at my Internet Explorer Program's files folder.
    I wonder what would a Plugin for Firefox be possibly doing with my IE's files?
    Does anybody know or have seen this?
    Thanks in advance.

  • Since the recent upgrade from Adobe pdf plug-inn Firefox often won't open pdf-files. Uninstalling doesn't help. I don't have this problem with Internet Explorer.

    Hi efacg,
    Most printing issues are solved by resetting the Printing preferences. When you print from Firefox and you click on the down arrow, do you see Defualt and Firefox? Please make changes to the preferences here and preview the document.
    If this continues to be an issue please also see [[Fix printing problems in Firefox]]
    If there are any other questions, please do not hesitate to ask, we are here to help.

  • Why does safari keep telling me i am missing a pdf plug in

    why does safari keep telling me i am missing a pdf plugin

    boyd4,
    perhaps it keeps telling you that because a PDF plug-in for Safari is missing?
    Do you have Adobe Acrobat or Adobe Reader installed? If so, which one, and which version?

  • Firefox & Schubert|it .pdf Plug-in

    I've just started a new job where I've been furnished with a new Mac Mini (OS X 10.4.7, 1.66 GHz Intel Core Duo, etc.). This is the first time I've used a Mac on a network (btw: the system re-templates twice a week) and so I'm still having to get used working on a machine that's not my fully customizable iBook G4.
    One place where I've run into a snag is with Firefox 1.5.0.4. Instead of using an older version (1.0) on the server, I'm running a newer version (same as what's on my laptop). I've installed the Schubert|it .pdf browser plug-in, but it's not working!!!
    I've put it in the following two places to no avail (yes, there have been log-outs and restarts) :
    1) Home -> Library -> Internet Plug-Ins
    2) <Mac Mini> -> Library -> Internet Plug-Ins
    Has anyone else had this problem? When I tried to do some troubleshooting using tips from www.mozdev.org (checking QT settings, etc.), and every thing's as it should be in order for the plug-in to work. I can't figure out what's going on.
    A second issue--it may be related--I had to manually change the setting in Preferences -> Downloads -> Download Actions to keep Firefox from using Preview to open .pdfs.
    I'm perplexed--I didn't run into any of these problems with the plug-in on my other computer.

    Try setting Firefox to open in Rosetta; this requires that you have an universal version of Firefox installed, and it won't work with a version which only contains Intel code. To check which architectures an application has installed, select it in the Finder and choose Get Info from the File menu.
