Problem in TIFF Conversion

Hi,
I am trying to convert any pdf or doc or xls document to tiff. Conversion is taking place and I am able to view all the contents in tiff format. But the size of the tiff format is nearly 8 times higher than the original document. What could be the problem?
Can anyone please help me out with this?????

There is no problem.
TIFF isn't a format known for its compactness.
Both PDF and MS Word are compressed to some extent, TIFF by default is not (though there are some compressed TIFF derivatives which are also considered to be TIFF).
To give an idea of the effect that can have:
My camera produces uncompressed RAW files of roughly 11MB.
It can also create compressed RAW (slightly lossy, not usually enough to worry about) of about 7MB.
When converted to JPEG using minimal compression the resulting file is about 5-6MB, or roughly half.
When converted to TIFF the result is 50-60MB, 10x that of a marginally compressed JPEG and 5 times that of uncompressed RAW.
But it can get worse. Saved as a Photoshop PSD this can grow to like 200MB depending on the actions performed on the image.
It's the nature of the beast, using a full 24 or 32 bits for each pixel per data layer, with potentially multiple layers of data per pixel.

Since downloading Firefox 4, I am having problems archiving gmail conversations from my inbox view. Also, when I go to enter a new event in google calendar, I now have to click the cursor in the box to type the event (it used to let me just start typing).

Since downloading Firefox 4, I am having problems archiving gmail conversations from my inbox view (either one or several conversations) as it says "No Conversations Selected" when I have selected one or several. Also, when I go to enter a new event in google calendar, I have to click the cursor in the box to type the event (it used to let me just start typing) or else it flips out and starts jumping to day view or another month. Does anyone know how to fix either of these?

Layout problem in PDF conversion

Hi all,
i am downloading spool data using the function module CONVERT_ABAPSPOOLJOB_2_PDF. But i am facing layout problem. e.g. RFBILA00(financial statement generation program) has written balancesheet data to the spool. This spool data has some 6 columns. but CONVERT_ABAPSPOOLJOB_2_PDF is writing only first 3 columns to the generated PDF file. i used 'GET_PRINT_PARAMETERS' function module also with values like layout as 'X_65_132' and 'X_90_120'. but no success. if anybody knows the answer, please let me know.
Thanks in advance,
Naveen

Problem view TIFF multipage images with ECL Viewer 5.1.3

Dear All,
using the SAPGUI 710 and CV04N, I cannot view the same TIFF multipage image twice in ECL Viewer, the second time, the first time every thing is ok, but the second time the SAPGUI display the error : "File C:Docume1dupondLOCALS1TempZEP_0457895 cannot be created"
To view again the TIFF mulitpage image, I need to kill the sapLogon.exe process and relaunch it again.
It seams the TIFF image file is locked by the the saplogon.exe process the first time and on the second time, SAP cannot rewrite the temporay TIFF image file.
Notes:
- I use CV04N or CV03N to view the documents.
- This problem doesn't happends with non multipage TIFF image.
- Tested on more than 20 computers.
- Computers are with Windows XP SP2 + SAP GUI 7.10 Compilation 2 + SP9 + SP12 + - ECL Viewer 5.1.3 (integrated with Comp 2)
How can I fix this problem ?
Thank you for your help
I think this is not the correct forum to post this king of problem, i create the same post on

HTML to Tiff conversion

Hi,
I want to perform Html to Tiff conversion.
The Html file is on my sys and i want to convert it into Tiff file using my java code. The html file contain Some formated text and 3-4 images.
I have a tool (GUI) that take html file path and snap the html and convert it into Tiff. But i want it in my java programming.
Does jave provide API for doing this, or any other vendor providing this as jar so that i include the jar and call its API for conversion.
Thanks,
Manish

Do you know of a method in the xdk that takes a well formed HTML doc and using xsd / xslt convert back to original xml spec?
Because you created (and as long as you create) the HTML from XML it will be well formed (every tag will be ended with an end-tag) and you can therefore transform it back into XML.
Most times it will not be possible to convert HTML found on the 'internet' into XML because this HTML is not well formed. For example, many people forget to end a paragraph of text within HTML with the </p> tag.
We are evaluating using xslt to convert the XML to a form based medium for content maintenance. Wondering if once a XML document is parsed to HTML (DOM) can it be parsed back to XML for subsequent update to stored value in blob column. Specifically interested in conversion (parser) from HTML to XML
Simply can HTML (in DOM format validated against a xsd) be transformed back to XML ?

Problems with Quicktime Conversion, FCE2

I am having problems using quicktime conversion. I want to export a 4 minute sequence into uncompressed AVI.
Each time i do this i get an almost 4 gb file that is only the first 18 seconds of the sequence. (when i export to WMV I get the same problem, except its 30 seconds)
I can export using compressed AVIs (such as DV-PAL), but the quality is not too good.
I am simply trying to get the best quality and most-universally useable file to write out onto a data DVD.
Any ideas/suggestions anyone?
I have am using a PowerPC G4 laptop, FCE2, OSX tiger....
Further problems: when i write this movie out to DVD with iDVD, and when it is in NTSC setting, black white lines appear on top of the black background parts in the movie, rather sporadically. I have written it out 3 or 4 times, and each time the frequency of the lines is different, but each DVD is unusable. In PAL setting this doesnt happen, but of course the quality is diminished, as the orig. footage was taken on an NTSC camera. I am in Europe, so this PAL/NTSC conversion thing is a neverending problem.... Is this an iDVD problem or a problem with my laptop's burner?
Daniel

Dear Tom,
I appreciate you replying to my post, and am sorry for not getting back to you sooner, but i never received an email notification of a reply.
The Nattress solution seems like a good route - is this compatible with FC Express 2?
The purpose of this AVI export is to have the highest possible quality file in data form, which the (PC using) client will then be able to write out onto DVD, convert/edit himself, etc. I have written out the self-contained QuicktimeMovie data file for him, but he is unable to open that. When i write out the AVI file, it is over 4 times as big as the QTmovie file and only plays for the first 18 seconds.
I am exporting to my internal harddrive (laptop).
The end goal is to get this file eventually onto a PAL-BETA video. This is where the NTSC-PAL conversion problem comes in, and maybe the Nattress program could be the solution (although it initially seems a bit complicated to me).
Another important part of this problem, is that iDVD writes out the original NTSC file with funny white lines going across the black backgrounds - so I cant write the best quality NTSC video onto DVD properly either. Each time I write it out, the frequency of these white lines is different. I dont know if this is a related problem, a Final Cut Express export problem, an iDVD problem, or a problem with my DVD writer. (I made the movie, exported it self-contained QTmov, imported it into a new file, did some color-correction, and exported the new final version. - maybe the problem stems from within this simple process? ? ? )
(Regarding the WMV export: this is not so important, lets not deal with this now. I have flip4mac, downloaded free. My experience is that it doesnt really work.)
So... any ideas or suggestions?
i appreciate your help,
Daniel

PDF to TIFF conversion Tiff File Size problem after conversion

Hi,
I am able to convert the PDF file into multi page TIFF file using the below method. But i am getting a size of 1.3 mb for each page of TIFF file (noofpagesX 1.3 mb). it's huge size right? So Could any one please help me out how to decrease the size of the TIFF file? It's an urgent for me. help me out.....
public static byte[] PDF2TIFF(byte[] bai, String imageType) {
byte[] out = null;
try {
PdfDecoder decoder = new PdfDecoder();
decoder.openPdfArray(bai);
decoder.setSize(100, 100);
ByteArrayOutputStream baos = new ByteArrayOutputStream();
BufferedImage image[] = new BufferedImage[decoder.getPageCount()];

For the Batch Sequence that "asks" --
Something to try.
Open the Batch Sequence dialog.
Select the appropriate Batch Sequence.
Click the Edit button.
In the Edit Batch Sequence - <name of sequence> dialog, use item number 3's drop-down menu.
From the menu, select 'Same folder as originals'.
"OK" out of the dialog.
Give the Batch Sequence a test run.
Output ought to be to the same folder as that of the selected & processed files.
Be well...

Automator - Change Image Type - Multiple page PDF- TIFF conversion

I was able to do this on a friend's computer (not sure which version of OS X they were running), but this seems impossible on Snow Leopard.
I need to convert hundreds of multiple page PDFs to TIFFs. I can't get this to work, and the Change Image Type option only lists single page PDF conversion. I could separate PDFs into multiple files, convert to TIFFs, but then I don't know how to recombine a bunch of TIFF pages into a larger file. From google searches, I know this is possible using tiffutil, but I don't really understand how to use that well, and I really need an automatic process.
I'm at my wits end with this, because I did it just last week on someone else's computer and it was easy as pie. Why can't you convert multiple page PDFs in Snow Leopard?
Any ideas?
Thanks!

I just tried this - two problems.
It creates a separate tiff document for each page of the input pdf.
Also, this action is just annoying because it results in randomly named files in some temp folder that i can only locate using the reveal finder item action. I know I can rename files in automator, but I'd really like to have the output file have the same name as the input file.
It confuses me why they would remove this functionality in Snow Leopard.

Problem with type conversion and primary key during row fetch

[Note, this error occurs in Oracle XE, APEX 2.1.0.00.39]
I have been having a problem with Automatic Row Fetch:
ORA-01460: unimplemented or unreasonable conversion requested
So in an effort to resolve this, I created a PL/SQL process with the query below and was able to isolate the same error. The problem seems to come from one of the primary keys being a "number" type (APP_ID). The error occurs on the line:
where u.app_id=:P5_APP_ID
I have tried the following variations on this line in an effort to resolve this, but all generate the same error:
1) where to_char(u.app_id) = :P5_APP_ID
2) where u.app_id = to_number(:P5_APP_ID)
3) where to_char(u.app_id) = to_char(:P5_APP_ID)
I've also tried the laternate syntax "&__." and "#__#", but these don't function in the Source field and show up as syntax errors.
Any suggestions are welcome.
begin
for r in (
select app_name, apptype, appcreator, appurl
from application_users u, application_info i
where u.app_id=:P5_APP_ID
and i.app_id=u.app_id
and u.username=:P5_USERNAME)
loop
begin
:P5_APP_NAME := r.app_name;
:P5_APPURL := r.appurl;
exception
when others then
raise_application_error(-20000,'In Loop Failure',true);
end;
end loop;
exception
when others then
raise_application_error(-20000,'Out of Loop Failure',true);
end;
Thanks in advance,
Barney

I found a prior post referencing a similar issue and it was solved by using the "v(__)" syntax. This did resolve my issue, however, I have a quick follow-on which I'm hoping someone can answer quickly...
Since the "v(__)" syntax won't work for the Automatic Row Fetch (at least to the best of my knowledge), I have to do a manual process. However, the manual query as shown above doesn't actually populate any of the form values through the bind variables. They all remain at their cached values from prior data entry on the form.
Is using the bind variables for assignment incorrect, or is there something that must be done to get the updates to show up in the form (ordering of processes, etc.).
My manual process is running in the Load: Before Header state so I would have expected it to update all of the fields.
Thanks in advance,
Barney

Aspect ratio problem with Quicktime Conversion from FCE HD 3.5

I have a FCE 3.5 HDV project (16:9 aspect ratio) which I am trying to export using Quicktime Conversion for eventual web-streaming. I have tried various settings including "maintain aspect ratio" and the "letterbox" options. After every multi-hour attempt, the end result is just what I need, except the aspect ratio is always 4:3 and vertically squeezed.
What settings should I use for a small to medium sized version of my movie for streaming on a website, but in the correct aspect ratio? I'd prefer a 16:9 Quicktime frame, or at least a 4:3 Quicktime frame with black bars.

I too have been having some problems, same software. Export to iPod completely ignores the intended aspect ratio and is non-adjustable and squeezes the footage. It looks fine on the canvas but gets messed up on export. A 4:3 video that should be 640x480 ends up being 640x426, and a 16:9 video that should be 640x360 looks to be getting 640x426 as well.
Currently, my work-around is to export to DV file, then export to iPod. Being a double encoding, it is quite wasteful in terms of time and processing power. Is there something else I can do?

FCC: Problems with content conversion

Dear all,
I have a receiver FTP adapter with content conversion. In RWB I'm facing following error message:
Adapter Framework caught exception: Exception in XML Parser (format problem?):'java.lang.Exception: Message processing failed in XML parser: 'java.lang.Exception: Consistency error: more fields found in XML structure than specified in conversion parameters! (Value 'FCOTUPI')', probably configuration error in file adapter (XML parser error)'
The field with value FCOTUPI could be found in POS recordset. I double check the length of columns but couldn't find
an error.
CC configuration:
Recordset structure: HEADER,POS,SUBPOS
HEADER.fieldFixedLengths = 8,4,8
POS.fieldFixedLengths = 8,20,15,3
SUBPOS.fieldFixedLengths = 5,5
HEADER.fixedLengthTooShortHandling = Cut
POS.fixedLengthTooShortHandling = Cut
SUBPOS.fixedLengthTooShortHandling = Cut
As you can see by the names, I am using as XML to convert a structure with subnodes. In documentation it said
that it is not allowed, but in some threads I found the information that structure could be processed.
Any ideas how to solve this problem?
Thanks
Chris

Dear Amit,
thanks for your answer. I already checked this blog, but hoped for other solutions.
My problem: I tried to map my hierarchical structure to a flat structure.
Source
Struc1 (0..unbounded)
-Item1.1
-Struc2 (0..unbounded)
--Item 2.1
--Struc3 (0..unbounded)
---Item3.1
Target:
Struc1 (0..unbounded)
-Item1.1
Struc2 (0..unbounded)
-Item 2.1
Struc3 (0..unbounded)
-Item3.1
But if e.g. the Struc2 appears two time it will be created two time in target structure before
the Struc3 is created. But ths Struc3 belongs to Struc2 and should be created in flat file under
Struc2 directly.
How can we created a flat structure like this
Struc1
Struc2
Struc3
Struc3
Struc2
Struc3
Thanks
Chris

Problem with file conversion from version 9.2.2 to version 10.1.0.71

Hello everyone.
I have a problem. In my database, i have a lot of artwork done with indesign 9.2.2. Since a while now I upgraded indesign and now I have the latest version 10.1.0.71 but I can't open my indesign artwork made with indesign 9.2.2.
When I try, a dialog box appear and says : " La conversion a échoué : les données du fichier ne correspondent pas aux données attendues".
What should I do ?
Thank you in advance

Hi,
Ideally all files created in 9.2.2 should open fine in versions greater than itself.
Did you happen to have some 3rd party plugin in 9.2.2 which is missing in 10.1 ? That can be one of the reasons for such errors.
Are the files still opening in version 9.2.2? (assuming you still have 9.2.2)
If there are no 3rd party plugins involved you can share the file with us at [email protected] and we can have a look and figure out the cause of the problem.
Regards
Javed

Problem from FCE conversion to burned DVD

I've edited a 15 min. film on FCE 3.5. Use quicktime conversion, self-contained to go to IDVD. The self contained film looks fine, burn it, play DVD and the DVD has in some scenes, a "ripple" effect and alot of "interlace" problems. Brought hard drive with film to mac store, burned on their computer same thing happened. So I know its' not mechanical problem with my burner. Something in the conversion, except that when you play converted film in IDVD before burn, it looks fine?
Help, need to get this film to someone and can't figure out problem.

What does this mean? Is this a question? Yes, play it back on a TV set. Or does this mean you did play it back on a TV set. If the latter you'll need to go through your entire process to see where the interlacing is being damaged. It should play correctly on a interlaced display.

Problem from alpha conversion in bi report input screen

Hi Experts,
we have implemented standard MM module and loaded data. Everything is ok, but problem is while running any bi report for MM, at selection screen when we provide material (0MATERIAL (18)) value is 11, it is not excepting instead of it accept 000000000000000011.
User requirement is he should provide 11 not 000000000000000011.
Please guide me for this.

For 0 material info-object the conversion routine used must ne MATN1 .
Trying to use this conversion routine through the general tab of the info-object and activate the info-object .
By using 0matn1 as the conversion routine you should be able to put only 11 in the selection screen and execute the report.
