Portfolio coversheet converting from Outlook
Converting from Outlook to pdf Portfolio is very use- and helpfull.
The automatically produced coversheet, indicating to use Acrobat Reader for best results is nerving.
How to avoid the creation of this coversheet (without any knowledge of programming!)
Thank you
vtosi
For Portfolios created in Acrobat, you can replace the cover sheet file in the installation folder:
Program Files\Adobe\Acrobat 10.0\Acrobat\DocSettings\CombineFiles\(language)\coversheet.pdf
Keep a backup of the original as if you damage it you'll have to reinstall. The (language) folder name depends on your Acrobat installation (ENU, FRA, DEU, etc.) not on the language of the PDF file you're creating.

Unable to use "drag and drop function" from outlook
We are changing from Lotus to outlook and this has made a problem with getting pdf-files into OAWD directly .
Procedure was like this in Lotus
1. We get documents (FI, F-43, aso ) by email
2. We use OAWD function "drag and drop" , document is attached to a document type and workflow is triggered
3. We pick up documents from Business workplace , handle the document and send it to the approver (who earlier got it directly in their mailbox "lotus")
so far so good , everything worked well
Unfortunately we changed to outlook, non attached files can be "drag and dropped" into OAWD (I understand the part about outlook is showing links instead of "real" pdf and know this is part of the problem)
My question, it can not be possible that we have to manually save the documents/attached files from outlook into "desktop" to later use the drag and drop function?
I have read about the programms to solve problem , ex "inPuncto", but our experts says there will be problem with connector to workflow from OAWD.
I have my greatest doubts about that because this must be really two diffrent moduls, one for converting from outlook and the other must be unchange (undependent of the earlier procedure). SAP can not know from what program the documents will be dragged?
Suggestion about some OAWD-adaptor ?
Any suggestions about great solutions ?it seems there is no way.

Is there someone with a better solution? -
Convert Multiple Outlook Emails to Multiple PDF Files (Not Portfolio or Single PDF) for Archiving?
Hi all, I am learning how to convert emails to PDF files and there is some great functionality there!! I have not discovered how to convert multiple outlook emails into multiple PDF files (one PDF file for each email) - all at the same time (not one at a time)!! Is there a way to do this using Acrobat X?? The purpose of this is for long-term business archiving. When I search for an email in the archive, I do not want to pull up a portfolio containing 1000 emails or a 1000 page PDF file with multiple emails run together!!! I want to pull up individual emails containing my search terms. I have been searching for a way to archive emails and MS OUTLOOK .PST files are NOT the answer. I get a lot of business emails with large attachments and I do not file my emails in separate sub-folders (by client or job). I want to convert multiple emails (by date range) from my UNIVERSAL INBOX into multiple PDF files for long term storage (with each email being converted into its own, separate PDF file and named with the same name as the "Re: line" of the email). This has been a HUGE problem for me....and Acrobat is sooooo close to the solution for me. Can anyone help?? If so, will attachments be converted? If not, is there a separate software program or add-in that I can buy that will do this?? I use MS Office 2010, Adobe Acrobat X Pro, Windows 7 64 BIT. Thanks for your help!!
I am a retired person and did'nt realize I already have a Adobe account, so you can scrap the entire information. Thanks for the trial anyway and have a great week.

Is there a way to create a PDF from outlook e-mail that does not embed the attachment? better, is there a way to convert the e-mail with attachement (not embeded) as pdf pages?
- Problem: I have 1400 e-mails with attachments that need to be converted into pdf and the attachments cannot be embeded.
System: PC Windows 7 using Acrobat X Prof. - Thank you!Hi ,
There is an option of embedding index for faster search while converting email to a PDF .
However I am not sure that will serve your purpose or not .
I would recommend you to get in touch with Microsoft support as well .
Meanwhile I'll work on it and get back to you in case I get a desired solution .

What is the SAFEST SEQUENCE to convert from a Outlook/iPad/iPhone synced with MobileMe to syncing with iCloud (I have 10 years of calendar diary events and 3000 contacts) - I am worried about the data issues that have been posted about iCloud.

How do I convert emails to PDF from Outlook to make a file on the PC?
how do I convert emails to PDF from Outlook to make a file on the PC
It is always tough for anyone when we need to save our emails into one file for future reference. You could either do it manually or can use a simple tool to Convert all your messages into one pdf file . This Single pdf file can be used if we need to read any past email. you can easily convert oulook to pdf in no time. If you are converting several email messages, you can either save them as separate files with initial layout fully intact or combine them into one big PDF document.

What is the easiest method to convert your Outlook Mail from MS Office 2011 for Mac, into Apple Mail?
As best I can see from googling it, there is NO easy direct way with Apple's builtin tools. If you Google it you will find that many software companies are selling Apps specifically designed for this purpose. Good luck.
Hope this helps -
How do I export calendar and contact files in Outlook and import them into iphone 4. I operate Mac OS X at home and wish to carry my work information with me on my iPhone.
You do not export anything.
Instead, sync the content from Outlook to your device via iTunes.
Try reading the manual, it's included on the device or here. -
Exporting selected contacts from Outlook 2011 for Mac
I've wanted to easily export a set of selected contacts from Outlook in Microsoft Office for Mac 2011. I've been through many threads about synching to Address Book and then exporting, but I've found a host of troubles, including duplicate copies of contacts being created.
So, I finally broke down and wrote an AppleScript script to export all of the currently selected contacts from Outlook to a file in either vcf (vcard) or csv (comma separated value) format. The best use of this script is to:
-- Install this as a script in Microsoft Outlook by saving the script below to Documents>Microsoft User Data>Outlook Script Menu Items
-- Change to your Contacts in Outlook. Use the Outlook search bar to find the contacts you want to export. You might search by name, category, company, or anything else that identifies the contacts you want to export. Or, you might just leave the view showing all contacts.
-- Select the contacts you want to export
-- Launch the script
The script will have you select between vcard and csv and select a destination file. This hasn't been optimized for speed, so if you're exporting 100's or 1,000's of contacts, be patient. And there isn't a progress bar at present, so you have to wait. It will display an alert when it's complete.
Sorry not to have a download location for you. You'll just have to copy the script text :-). Keep in mind there's been some but limited testing. Read the comments for details. And enjoy.

-- Another note. In this version, any embedded "return" or "linefeed" characters

How to restore old emails from Outlook to Mac Mail?
I have recently configured my email account (server type POP3) on Mail. It has retrieved my emails from last few weeks. However the older emails are missing. I was using Outlook and Mozilla thunderbird as email clients on Windows computer. I do have a backup of the data from windows computer on external hard drive. Can someone explain my how to I restore those old emails to the newly configued mac Mail account?
I had about 7500 emails, and they converted OK...took awhile because each one has to be converted, but it finished fine.
Although you can export from multiple Outlook folders, Mac Mail doesn't have a very slick importer for multiple mailboxes. So, you'll need to export the mailboxes from Outlook (which will create 25 different files, each full of email), and then import each of those into Mail. In my case, Mail created a separate folder for each exported file, but the folders all descended from the root folder (not nested), so I had to create my own nesting. This is more a limitation of the mbox standard that Apple uses than it is a limitation of Mac Mail itself, from what I read.

Converting an Outlook email with Images doesn't work
I can convert any email from Outlook to a PDF and it will include all .doc and .pdf files, but it seems to just ignore any image attachments. I'm using Acrobat 11.0.06
Is there a reason why or a solution to get around this? I need to maintain a database of all my applications and some come in as PDF's, others as image files.
I cannot find an email address for Adobe either, bit fustrating.
Any help greatly appreciated.Hi,
Goto the Change Conversion settings option on the Adobe PDF tab in outlook.
On the settings tab , unselect - "Block downlaod of external content"
That should solve the issue for you. -

I have the custom of preparing data in Excel, and would want to import some data into iCal. However I cannot find a good converter from either tab (preferred) or csv to ics. Similarly have no experience with applescripts and other fancy things. Is there somewhere an easy system to convert?Ali,
Appears the iCal and Excel "wizards" forgot to supply us with a simple and much need way to import excel events, dates, birthdays, games etc. from excel to iCal..
...even the "wizards" at Ms Office 2011 do not allow an easy import from MS Office 2011 Excel to MS Office 2011 Outlook/Calendar...
