Plugin for renaming extracted pages?

Does anyone know of a plugin I can use to rename pages extracted from a PDF? I work on long magazines and an occasional catalog and have to submit single-page PDFs to my printing service. I usually make one giant PDF and then extract all the pages in Acrobat. The only problem is that Acrobat names them
filename 1.pdf
filename 2.pdf
filename 3.pdf
etc. Whereas my printing service wants the filenames to adhere to a rigid format of page number first and no spaces. Example:
001filename.pdf
002filename.pdf
I definitely don't have time to manually rename them, and I believe we get charged a fee since I don't follow that format. Just curious if there are any plugins to change the default naming in Acrobat's extract feature.
Thanks, Phyllis

Just in case someone else needs this information, I've found the answer. :-) You don't need an extra utility -- you can do the renaming with Adobe Bridge. I haven't really used Bridge that much, but it's got a great batch renaming feature. So I just extract them with Acrobat and then rename with Bridge.....

Pdf plugin for safari missing page setup

Hi all,
We have users that would like to change the page size when printing a pdf via safari when viewing via the adobePDFviewer.plugin. On 10.4 you could select the paper size when in the print menu, now in 10.5 its not there. Has anyone found a way of selecting a different paper size? We're resorted to disabling the plugin but thats opened up a new can of worms.
thanx

Bump.
Someone else must of come across this issue by now...

This is a problem with Facebook. On my status I no longer have the buttons to share a picture, video, link AND my Firefox plugin for sharing web pages on FB no longer works. Any Ideas?

Firefox Version 3.6.12
Recent update to Firefox.
After which I can no longer share web pages on Facebook from Firefox AND on my Wall in FB I can only post text - no longer have the buttons to share videos, pictures, links, etc.
But these all exist in my version of IE.

You're welcome
I'm curious where you found Options if it is not in the indicated place or did you use Tools > [[Clear Recent History]] ?

Searching Eclipse-Plugin for EL

Hi @all!
I wanna try to write an application with EL.
Actually I'm using Eclipse 2.1.1. and I'm using the Lomboz-Plugin for creating JSP-pages by Java-Code.
But I've noticed this Plugin is not able to know EL.
In kind of errors, no corrections will be displayed...
So my question is, if you know a Plugin for Eclipse being able to create jsp-pages with java (scriptlets) and EL within one page.
I also would be thankful, if you mention any other editor being able to manage both (java and EL).
Many thanks in advance!
Chris

What is the keyboard shortcut for extract page?

There used to be a series of keyboard shortcuts for page manipulation (and other) - using acrobat 9 till recently. Now new to Acrobat XI Pro (Windows 8.1). I can see the shortcuts for insert & delete page but not for extract page (and other). Am I missing something? The keyboard shortcuts are a must for speed and a healthy right wrist.
Thank-you for your time.

There isn't a direct way of doing it, but you can "hack" it using a script. Create a folder-level script with this code:
app.addMenuItem({cName: "MyExtractPages", cUser: "E&xtract Pages", cParent: "Edit",
cExec: "app.execMenuItem(\"ExtractPages\");", cEnable: "event.rc = (event.target!=null)"});
This will add a new menu item to the Edit menu which you could access using the following keyboard shortcut: Alt+E, X

Extract Pages Action for PDFs

Has anyone used the Extract Odd/Even Pages action for PDFs? I'm trying to use it to extract pages from a PDF and save as separate files. When I use it the action spins for a moment, says it succeeded, but I don't get any new files.

I know of the java script method, just wondering why it can't be found as standard wizard tool ;-)
I have a java script to extract pages.
Is it possible to somehow create a droplet for it (as is possible with preflight profiles)?
Thanks.

Script for extracting pages into separate documents?

Hi,
Using Acrobat 9 Pro on an XP machine, my job entails taking PDFs over 2000 pages long, sorting them into smaller documents based on their contents, and (once they are sorted) breaking down any documents longer than 25 pages into individual PDFs of 25 pages each. So, for instance, if I have a document of 110 pages, I end up with four 25-page documents and one 10-page document. Right now I do this by extracting pages 26-50 and deleting them from the original, then saving the extracted pages. Would it be possible to write a script that could accomplish the same end result? (I have CS4 Design Premium, so if anyone knows how to do this with another CS4 program, that would work also.)
Thanks!

Yes, it can done. If you want to do it yourself look in the JavaScript Reference file under the Document object, extractPages() method.

Is there an archive page for Flash Player plugins for PORTABLE versions of web browsers?

Is there an archive page for downloads of Flash Player plugin installers for the PORTABLE versions of web browsers like Firefox ESR?
One of my web browsers is Firefox ESR 10.0.7 and it is a PORTABLE version of Firefox that apparently needs a different Flash Player plugin than the normal Flash Player plugin that regular versions of most web browsers require.
I do not want to install the most recent Flash Player plugin PORTABLE version because I've read about problems with it and that's the only version that this Firefox ESR will give me the option to download and install when I try to install the needed Flash Player plugin through the browser.
I already know about the normal Adobe Flash Player plugin archive page, linked below, but that does not have the Flash Player plugins for PORTABLE web browsers.
http://helpx.adobe.com/flash-player/kb/archived-flash-player-versions.html
I also looked on OldApps.com and I couldn't find anything there.
Where can I download an older version, possibly one of the 11.2 Flash Player plugins from around April 2012, that will work with this PORTABLE version Firefox ESR?
I tried this question on the Mozilla Firefox help forum but no one could answer it.
Thanks for any help,
digiday

Hi Pat,
Thanks again for your reply. Your solutions seemed like they might work, especially since you were able to tell me where the Windows system Flash Player plugin files are located.
And for a minute or two, I thought it was working. In my first tests in the PORTABLE Firefox browser I'm testing with, it was actually playing some YouTube videos, but then I found that not all YouTube videos apparently rely on Flash to play... apparently some do and some do not, and I found that most of them do require Flash to play. I had tested with some of my own videos that I uploaded to YouTube in the past in my first tests today and they played just fine, but then I started testing with some other Flash YouTube videos and they would not play and I got both the yellow bar at the top of my window telling me to download and install Flash as well as the red banner across the video player that told me I needed to install Flash.
Let me also make it clear that I'm testing this on other sites with Flash videos besides YouTube, and webpages that have relatively simple animated Flash graphics, and those alternate tests are showing that the Flash Player plugin for this PORTABLE Firefox still will not work either.
So to spite everything, I tried actually downloading and installing the newest Flash Player plugin, 11.4 something, (which I was trying to avoid) through the browser, and that only proceeded to overwrite my Windows system Flash Player plugin and it DID NOT place any Flash Player plugin files in the PORTABLE Firefox plugins folder.
I had pasted in the files you recommended in to the PORTABLE Firefox plugins folder, and I actaully included ALL the files from that Windows system Flash plugin folder for this test, but unfortunately that didn't work, and even after I tried changing the name of that one file, it still didn't work.
And I am closing and re-opening the browser in between each of these steps in my test.
So here, below, I'm including an email letter that I've now written to a Tor Browser support email address where I had been corresoponding previously. The "Tor-Firefox" web browser is the PORTABLE Firefox ESR web browser that I've been referring to. This is what I wrote, which pretty much sums up everything I've tried and been unsuccessful with so far...
Hello Tor Browser help staff,
I've now tried everything and I cannot get ANY Flash content to play in this Tor-Firefox ESR web browser, even though I've tried installing the Flash player plugin that this browser asks for when I'm on a YouTube page (and even though this computer already had a current Flash Player plugin installed previously).
Let me make it clear that privacy is not important to me right now during this quest to make the Flash Player plugin work with this Tor browser... I can reset any settings for maximum privacy later when I go back to that purpose for using Tor... right now, I'm just trying to make the Tor browser play Flash content.
So even though I've UNCHECKED the Torbutton>Preferences>Security Settings>Disable plugin during Tor usage box, and I installed a new Flash player plugin THROUGH this browser, and I even set it to allow all scripts because I thought maybe that was complicating things, IT STILL WILL NOT PLAY FLASH CONTENT OF ANY TYPE.
Now, this, explained below, could be part of the problem that I'd like to ask for your help or SOMEONE's help with there in your department...
If I go to the Tor Browser folder on my hard drive at C:>Tor Browser>FirefoxPortable>Data>plugins there are NO Flash plugin files that show up in that folder even after I install a new Flash Player plugin THROUGH this browser... I believe that is why it will not play Flash content.
All it does when I install a Flash Player plugin through this Tor browser is to overwrite my Windows 7 system Flash Player plugin, but it does not actually place any Flash Player plugin files in the C:>Tor Browser>FirefoxPortable>Data>plugins folder, so that's why this PORTABLE version of the Firefox ESR browser will not play any Flash content... and it doesn't work from the Windows system Flash Player plugin the way that my normal Firefox (NON-TOR) web browser does. My other Firefox web browser sees the the Windows system Flash Player plugin just fine and it does play Flash content correctly.
There is, however, one text file that comes stock inside the Tor browser plugins folder and when it is opened it says, "Place Firefox plugins in this directory (Flash, Shockwave, etc)".
So with some advice from someone on the Adobe help forum, I tried copying the Flash Player plugin files from the Windows system folder at C:>Windows>System32>Macromed>Flash in to the Tor browser plugins folder at C:>Tor Browser>FirefoxPortable>Data>plugins, and that still didn't work.
Note that I am closing and re-opening the Tor browser between each of these tests.
So I then followed some further advice from the expert on the Adobe help forum and I changed the name of the main Flash Player plugin file that I had copied and pasted in to the Tor browser plugins folder from "NPSWF32_11_4_402_278.dll" to "NPSWF32.dll", and that still did not work... note that I left all the other files that I copied and pasted from the Windows system Flash plugins folder with the same name they originally had... I tried only changing that one Flash plugin file name, as instructed by the expert on the Adobe help forum.
I also tried posting a question about this on the Mozilla Firefox forum, but no one there is able to answer this question.
What the problem seems to be is that when this Tor-Firefox ESR 10.0.7 browser installs a Flash Player plugin, it just installs it to the Windows system folder (the same way that the normal (non-Tor) Firefox browser does) and NOT into the Tor-Firefox plugins folder C:>Tor Browser>FirefoxPortable>Data>plugins, as would be needed for it to be able to play Flash content.
No matter what I do, whenever I try to view a YouTube video or any Flash video in this browser, or any Flash graphic content at all, I get the yellow bar at the top of the page that says "Additional plugins are required to display all the media on this page - Install Missing Plugins" and there is a banner displayed where the Flash content is supposed to be that says, "The Adobe Flash Player is required for video playback - Get the latest Flash Player".
And as I explained at the top of this email, I have already installed and re-installed the Flash Player plugin on this computer multiple times, including doing it directly through this Tor-Firefox ESR browser itself.
So can ANYONE there tell me how to get the correct Flash Player plugin files in to the Tor-Firefox browser plugins folder at C:>Tor Browser>FirefoxPortable>Data>plugins, and where do I get those files? Everything I've tried, which is pretty extensive, has not worked, and it seems that someone there should know about this.
Thanks for your help.

NFL page needs a MIME plugin for audio output

when I go to NFL.com I get a drop down window with this info
The page “NFL.com - Official Site of the National Football League” has content of MIME type “audio/x-pn-realaudio-plugin”. Because you don’t have a plug-in installed for this MIME type, this content can’t be displayed.
I cant find a plugin for safari
is there a plugin for safari that is MIME compliant
I have Safari Version 2.0.2 (416.13)

Hi,
It sounds like you don't have RealPlayer installed.
You can get RealPlayer from http://www.real.com (theyhave a link to the free player in the top right corner). Run RealPlayer at least once after copying it to your hard drive and then restart Safari.
I'm watching the video clip on the NFL.com homepage now without any problems.

Keystroke for Extract Page

One feature I am missing incredibly is the keystroke for extracting a page. We have a catalog and I have to extract pages of the catalog into individual PDF files. I would like to have a key command, rather than having to return to the Apple menu each and every time I need this function. I forget, was it version 5 that last had Command-E, I miss it so much...

There isn't a direct way of doing it, but you can "hack" it using a script. Create a folder-level script with this code:
app.addMenuItem({cName: "MyExtractPages", cUser: "E&xtract Pages", cParent: "Edit",
cExec: "app.execMenuItem(\"ExtractPages\");", cEnable: "event.rc = (event.target!=null)"});
This will add a new menu item to the Edit menu which you could access using the following keyboard shortcut: Alt+E, X

Extract Pages- and the Split- not doing what I expect them to

I have a document created in Illustrator (CS4) which has multiple artboards. I want it split into multiple documents, one art board—> one document with only that artwork. When I use the Extract PAges… and the Split… comands to generate multiple documents, I get the multiple docs (same number of docs created as pages in original doc).
Only thing is every doc has all the artboards and all the artwork as the original doc. I could understand all the artwork being there but all the artboards also?? What's going on?
Appreciate any pointers on this.
Trying to write a JSX to run in AI but struggling so far. Thread for AI solution started here: AS) export single page PDFs from multi-artboards

I don't expect mind reading but I'l settle for careful reading
I tried to explain how pages and artboards are qualitatively different objects only to be told they are the same thing and that's all I needed to say.
I tried to explain that opening the very same file in Illustrator showed a lot more objects than it did in Acrobat. You probably don't remember because you breezed over something that you didn't think you needed to know because you were, at each stage, a step ahead of me (slow down already!).
From my second post:
I can't remember if Splitting gave enumerate files or the one file but either way ALL the artwork was in the enumerate files if they got made [.…] I ended up saving as CS3 .ai files which gives a Save artboards to seperate files option and, unlike the artboard range option on Save As PDF, it actually works.
From my third post
An artboard is not a page as far as Acrobat and Illustrator apps are concerned. I was trying to highlight the distinctly different way the two apps handle them. I can watch a one page with just one shape document in Acrobat become a 20 artboard, 40+ objects layout in Illustrator. Same document interpreted as one Page in Acrobat and 23 artboards in AI.
I was on this forum because even a manual Document Menu> Split… command is not doing what I expected with the AI generated 23pp PDF file. I expected the 23 individual 'artboards' and content to each make a separate file.

I don't remember you mentioning that you re-imported the PDF files into Illustrator. This is an important detail. You also posted to an Acrobat scripting forum and never said you were not interested in an Acrobat Script. You also never explained the problem you were seeing. You were never clear.
Covered that but note Illustrator doesn't import PDF files. .ai .eps and .pdf are all native files for Illustrator and just open, sometimes with an additional dialogue to choose a page from multiple pages. It imports .dwg, .svg and that sort of thing relying on translator plugins. This is the fourth time I'm saying I should have posted in Acrobat Win or Mac not scripting, apologies I was scripting when I made OP and probably frustrated. You were more clear it's true, clearly ignoring what I was getting at in each post re artboard cf. page objects.
You see, in a PDF file each page has it's own content stream, i.e., a stream of vector graphics operators. Graphics can be drawn anywhere in the coordinate space, but the page view is clipped by a crop rectangle. So graphics can exist in the stream, but never be visible to the user because they are outside the crop. I get the impression that in Illustrator the Artboards all exist in a single coordinate space? And that the conversion to PDF places this entire coordinate space into a single content stream. Then each page would be a different crop of the same content stream. If this is the case then I believe there are PDF optimization operations in Acrobat that would fix your problem by removing all content outside the crop.
Yeah I've hacked lots of PDF files in AI. They use more than one clipping rect per page from memory. Correct, the artboards are defined in a single co-ord space it would seem — artboards are discretely and independently located on the document canvas and can even overlap each other. Yes those operations might work, I never though of that, I came across an Illustrator based solution early on in this thread. There's no conversion going on in Acrobat though I think, the file stays native PDF from AI to Acrobat and back to AI. As I've noted it's the way Acrobat displays or parses the data that in effect hides all the 'off-page' objects but open the same file in AI and it's all still there.
You know, we can't read minds, you actually have to explain what it is you need.
I didn't know it, but I needed to get a confirmation on the artboardRange property bug in Illustrator CS4 and/or a confirmation that artboards are not treated as page objects, and I ended up having to lecture you on something you may have no interest in, sorry if I've been a pain. This is part of bigger bug elsewhere that I've been trying to get resolved or around on and off for a month. Every turn another bug, it gets confusing and frustrating at times

Renaming extracted Single windows IDcs5 documents using a windows CSV-file

I'm not a scripter and I'm in need of a script that will rename extracted single pages using a column from a windows CSV-file to name each InDesign file accordingly. I have search the forums but all I can find is a Renaming extracted single pdf pages as in this post http://forums.adobe.com/message/4633533#4633533#4633533 I've been told that I could adjust such scripting but I don't know how. I will like to acomplish the same but Exporting single InDesing pages. Does anyone has a script that can be share on how to do such thing? Either through ID or using Bridge?

The link highlighted in your post splits a large PDF into single page PDFs based on a csv/txt file within Acrobat - it isn't an InDesign Script.
There is an indesign script you can try and it is written by Loic Aigon: go to http://www.loicaigon.com/en/pdf-exports-properly-named/ read the article and see if it is appropriate for you.
There is another indesign script you can try but it is in german. See the adobe forum post http://forums.adobe.com/thread/1014766 for more information.
Hope this helps
