PDF to Excel - Save As File Type - No Options
When I am attempting to save my converted file, I do not get any options to save it as a file type...literally "Save As Type" is blank and there are no options to choose anything.
So if I save it without that to my desktop, it then won't open to anything usable. Please advise.
Hi there,
Basically what's happening is that your browser is not recognizing the mime-type of the file. You'll need to manually append the .xlsx (or .docx for Word) extension to your file while saving it.

Isit possible to change the default save as file type settings?
Hi,
I would like to set the default "save" and "save as" file type to "PDF /A" instead of the default "PDF" due to compatibility issue with some of our systems. Can this be done?
So when a user click on the save button at the top it auto save as "PDF /A" and when the user select save as the default selection will be "PDF /A" ?Dave,
Did you ever find an answer to this? We are having the same issue.
Thanks,
Mike -
When I try to save an image under the command 'save as' it will only let me save as file types 'firefox document' or 'all files' and when I try to look at them later they dont work. How can I save an image as the same file type it is on the web site?!
== This happened ==
Every time Firefox opened
== I updated to one of the firefox versions (Not sure which one it was)Thanks Alex, but sadly I already tried that. Neither .docx or .xlsx files show up in the content list. They both show as a Chrome HTML document so changing how Firefox addresses those doesn't help since it thinks its the same type of file. I don't think I can manually add files into the "Content Type" left side nav.

I don't have pdf documents listed as a file type in the drop down applications menu, so cannot handle these. How do I add a file type?
After a little Googling, it looks like B.Media is a content management system from Wave Corporation used for making catalogs. Doubtful you'd be able to license it at less than an enterprise level.

Save Error: File Type Unknown
Ok So here it is
I've been working on a project all day, saving all along and suddenly at the end of the day I go to save one last time and I get an error of "Save Error: File Type Unknown". At first I thought there was an unsupported file type somewhere in the project so I searched out all my non-video elements and they all checked out OK.
I then started shutting down the machine at lunch and that seemed to remedy the problem at first, but now I get the error at least 6 times a week - VERY frustrating. I've tried doing save as, which results in either a full crash or the same error.
I thought that maybe somehow the constant frames files were getting corrupted during the course of editing some how and started trashing those - no change still get the error.
Also I am editing HDV and rendering out ProRes. So far no one has been able to help So I'm turning to you guys!
Thanks guys!!I created a duplicate of my application on apex.oracle.com - the problem happens under APEX 4.0 as well...
It might be easier to see what is happening here.

my spreadsheet created with numbers program version 3.0 created on my mac won't work on my ipad version 2.0. It says I have to save the file with preview option but there is no such option in preferences. Any thoughts?
For the update to run Aperture must be installed in the system Application folder and named simply Aperture, not Aperture3.2.2 or anything else.
I don't know if this would also affect photo stream but if your Aperture is misnamed or installed in an incorrect location fixing that to see if it clears up the problem would be a good first step. -
Does reader support saveAs conversion file types ?
Hello,
The "JavaScript for Acrobat API Reference" doc specifies that second parameter 'cConvID' of the doc.saveAs function is conversion file type id. This method is supported since 5.0 version. There is no restrictions available for reader accept security.
I tried to convert pdf document to tiff using folder level script:
doc.saveAs("/e/test.tiff", "com.adobe.Acrobat.tiff");
This produced the following error: "An unimplemented or obsolete function was called". I'm sure this is not a security issue as I'm able to save the document as pdf if second parameter is not specifed.
From another side I tried to test which conversion types are supported and executed the following code:
for ( var i = 0; i < app.fromPDFConverters.length; i++)
app.alert(app.fromPDFConverters[i]);
In this case I got: "Get not possible, invalid or unknown" on app.fromPDFConverters. My document is not hidden and this app property is supported from 6.0 reader version without any restrictions.
I don't have an idea what's wrong here - the only explanation that reader scripting does not support conversions. Online Help states these features are supported:
http://livedocs.adobe.com/acrobat_sdk/9.1/Acrobat9_1_HTMLHelp/JS_API_AcroJS.88.524.html
http://livedocs.adobe.com/acrobat_sdk/9.1/Acrobat9_1_HTMLHelp/JS_API_AcroJS.88.110.html
Reader versions I tested it: 9.3 and 9.3.3 with win7 and Snow Leopard. If you have any related info please share it with me.
Thank you a lot,
AlexeyHi GKaiseril, thank you for reply,
There are my answers:
Have you read the section about the 'quick bar' which appears at the top of each object, property, or method page?
- yes, I read
What is the box at the far right of the bar for?
- Availability
What is the meaning of the black 'S' in that box mean?
- Requires the document save right, my document has extended usage rights including save. In addition, I'm able to save the document using saveAs function without second param specified. The problem is only reproduced if I specify conversion type id.
Have you looked in those references for the application object's 'viewerType' and 'viewerVariation' properties, and the description for the quick bars?
- Yes, I looked. There is no such restriction for the method and property specified.
What are the values for those properties?
The first box indicates that saveAs was first added to Acrobat/Reader in version 5.0. The box at the far right of the bar show S - means you need document save right only, so saveAs function will work in all versions and variations of Acrobat, including Adobe Reader since 5.0 version and if document have Save usage rights.
Have you read the section about trusted and privileged functions?
- yes, I read. Again, I'm able to save my document without specifying the second argument - it means my script environment and function call conditions satisfy the requirements.
The note for the 'saveAs' method:
"Note: This method can only be executed during a batch or console event. See Privileged versus non-privileged context for details. The event object contains a discussion of JavaScript events."
- it also can be executed from folder level scripts. For reader you need extended usage rights.
Reader can only save as a PDF.
- Could you please provide more info/links for this statement? Accordingly to online help it should be possible to use "saveAs" function with conversion type id for reader.
How to save a PDF with Acrobat JavaScript by Thom Parker - I read it sometime ago - did not find anything related to the issue.

I open a .psd file, make changes to eliminate layers and reduce the file size to then save as a smaller .jpg file. However, when the drop down window pops up to select what file extension I would choose, it immediately flashes closed with out time to make a selection .jpg or otherwise. No matter how many times I try to "beat" the window and make a selection, it's faster than me and it closes. It refuses to allow me to change the file type extension. This problem seems to have developed after downloading recent updates to the program. It's preventing me from doing my work. I need help fast. Can anyone help? I've already tried deleting the program from my system and reloading it, but the problem didn't go away.
Other minor glitch happened at the same time. Any file or group of files opened now fill the screen and are anchored together. I have to go to the menu every time and select 'Float all Windows', and if any other file is opened during the same work session, all previous files will become full screen images again and anchor themselves together again, so need to go to the menu and select 'Float all Windows' AGAIN. It's a real pain. I've tried looking in the preferences and didn't find a solution to the problem. Anyone have any suggestions? This problem is minor thought, compared to the first one listed which has crippled me moving forward in my work.
Thanks to anyone who can help....Hi Noel,
Thanks for trying to assist me. Below is the system info you requested, but to my knowledge, I haven't consciously loaded anything other than a few fonts beyond the original program and any subsequent updates from Adobe. I did forget to list earlier that I'm working on WIN 7 OS. I hope this helps...

PDF print. where save the file?
Hello,
on my system (SPAD) is defined ZPDF2 a printer for printing in PDF.
I want to know where to save the PDF? In a specific file system? How can I see this?
Best regards
SilvioHi,
It is not cleared what is your exact goal ?
see that the printing is completed but I do not know if SAP has created a file and where to put it
By default SAP saves the documents in users home directory "C:\Documents and Settings\<USER_NAME>\SapWorkDir".
Is there a log that tells me what happens when I print a SAP page?
in SP01/SP02 or SPAD you can see the status of the spool job (success or failed) or its attribute. But it will not tell you where you saved the file because this activity will not come under SAP's control.
If I am not mistaking SAP generates spool request as per the configured spool device in SPAD. Once you fire the print job it depends on operating system's installed printer (configuration) what to do with that request. Means whether to print as PDF document or send to normal print device.
If you want more control over print job, you can configure "Access Method" as "G: Frontend printer with Control tech." and set "Host Printer = _DEFAULT". So it will pop-up Operating system printer selection dialog box.
I hope, it will cleare your doubts.
One more thing:
You have 2 methods to get it done...
A) In case of standard transactions or report, use method as I said in previous post.
B) If it is custom development, you can take ABAPers help to do the same. below are the steps for the same.
Basic Steps .
1) Generate the classical Report output .
2) Create a Spool Request .
3) Search the Spool Request .
4) Submit the Spool Request for Pdf Creation .
5) Download the Pdf Output in Presentation server or Application Server .
Use the Standard Function Modules 'CONVERT_ABAPSPOOLJOB_2_PDF' and 'GUI_DOWNLOAD'
It will give you a freedom where to save the file..
Regards.

FileReference.save() file type filter options?
OK, I’m loving the new access to the FileReference class to load and save XML to the user’s local drive without sending out for pizza first, but I have one minor complaint:
FileReference.browse() lets me filter the read choices to xml files only, so I can strongly encourage the user to only open files with the proper extension, however, FileReference.save() doesn’t seem to support similar filtering, so the user can save data with any old extension, making it easy for them to accidently hide the saved file from the open dialog box. Am I missing something or is there a user friendly way to match read/write file types.I don't believe you can get that functionality using FileReference in Flash Player.

Export to PDF change default "Save As" file name
Hello,
I have an asp.net application where I use a CrystalReportViewer. The user runs the report via the application. They then click on on the the Export button in the viewer with PDF as the format. This launches the PDF file. When I click the Save icon, the Save As dialog box comes up. The default name in this window is the name of the .aspx file. I want to be able to specify what this file name should be instead of it defaulting to the name of the asp page in which the report was launched.
I do not want to recreate the Export button, I am trying to find a way to do this with existing crystal functionality. Can anyone please help?? Thank you!!Hi there,
I believe I may have found the solution!
You will need to set your CrystalReportViewer.ID property to what you need your filename to be.
In my example:
CrystalReportViewer.ID = "NewPDFFileNamehere";
The .PDF file extension will be added automatically!
Just note, you need to set the above property ASAP in code - meaning - It should be the first thing you do before having any other code attached, read into or from CrystalReportViewer.
Hope it helps!

Saving documents via Scripts: Get current file name and set save path/file type
I am writing a script that will:
-Make all layers invisible
-Make a layer named "background" visible
-Delete all the invisible layers
-Save the docment as an EPS file (leaving the original document untouched)
I am new to scripts and so have based my script by copying code from other scripts.
Here is my code:
var doc = app.activeDocument;
var name = doc.name;
var hide = function (){ // hide all layers (based on http://forums.adobe.com/thread/644267)
var L=doc.layers.length;
for (j=0;j<L;j++){ doc.layers[j].visible=false; }
hide();
// loop through all layers
for (var i = 0; i < doc.layers.length; i++) {
// Create the illusrtratorSaveOptions object to set the AI options
var saveOpts = new IllustratorSaveOptions();
// Setting IllustratorSaveOptions properties.
saveOpts.embedLinkedFiles = true;
saveOpts.fontSubsetThreshold = 0.0
saveOpts.pdfCompatible = true
//Set up Variable to access layer name
var currentLayer = app.activeDocument.layers[i];
// Loop through the layers and make the back ground layer visible
if (currentLayer.name == "Background") {
docName = name + currentLayer.name+".eps";
currentLayer.visible = true;
// Delete Invisible Layers (based on http://www.cartotalk.com/index.php?showtopic=7491)
var myDoc=app.activeDocument;
var layerCount=myDoc.layers.length;
for (var ii = layerCount - 1; ii >= 0; ii--) {
var currentLayer = myDoc.layers[ii];
currentLayer.locked = false;
var subCount = currentLayer.layers.length;
for (var ss =subCount -1; ss >= 0; ss--){
var subLayer = currentLayer.layers[ss];
subLayer.locked = false;
if (subLayer.visible == false){
subLayer.visible = true;
subLayer.remove();
if (currentLayer.visible == false){
currentLayer.visible = true;
currentLayer.remove();
// Save Out Document with New Name
var saveName = new File ( doc.path + "/" + docName );
doc.saveAs( saveName, saveOpts );
Everything works fine except:
1) It saves the document with the name AdobeIllustratorBackground as opposed to the name of the document
Also, I am not sure how to tell the script to save as EPS and to specify the save location.
Could some one give me some pointers? Thanks!Thanks! I changed my code to this:
var title = doc.name;
var title = title.substring(0, title.length - 3);
And it now works! (The substring thing removes the .ai extenion).
However, how do I get it to save it as an EPS? (I found this script that saves as PNG, but I am not sure how to adapt it to EPS).
Also, how do I set the file output path?
Thanks for any help that can be offered. -
Can't print PDF unless I save the file
Ever since I did my last update of Acrobat (I did another new update yesterday), I can't print a PDF document from an email attachment unless I save it first. I use gmail. I also used to be able to click on the icon to open up the PDF, but now I can't do that either. My only option is to View the PDF in a browser window or save the doc. When I view the PDF in the browser window and then click on the Print link, it won't print it - it makes me save it first.
I get PDF's all the time that I need to print but I don't want to save. This is wasting a ton of time having to save every PDF before I can print it.

Cannot Save Word files as a PDF in Office 2013 with Office customization tool
Hello
I'm deploying office 2013 as a part of a post clone task. Using the customization tool I created an msp with the full installation (without outlook,Link, or skydrive) I noticed that I cannot save or export files as PDF files. If I do a manual
install (without MSP) I can save files as pdf. I can't find anywhere in the customization tool that allows me to choose different "save as" file types. In office 2010 I used to be able to save word files as PDF files. Any ideas would
be greatly appreciated.
CharlesHi,
In regarding the issue, could you give me more information? Did you test to install the Office 2013 by using MSP and manual installation in the same computer? Did the other Office suits can not save files as pdf?
Let's do some test to narrow down the issue:
If you use the only one computer to test, please export a new MSP file include all the suits and use the all the default setting. Then we follow the
link to deploy again.
If the issue still exists, please try to change a computer, and update Adobe programs to install the new MSP file to test.
If you get some error message when you save as pdf through Word, please upload, I'll do more deeply research.
Regards,
George Zhao
