Problem opening a package from FTP site -- font is screwed up.

Maybe someone could help me out. I downloaded a zip file off this guys FTP and I was to make a couple text changes on my end. I have never worked from someone else's indd file before so maybe I'm doing something wrong. I extracted the zip and there are 2 folders (links, fonts) and there is the indd file, text file for printer and some IDLK file. I open the indd and and the 1st thing that pops up is 'missimg fonts' window ( the document is mostly using Helvectica font which is not installed on my machine). I try and use the find font but all i can seem to do it replace the font which screws everything up (11 page doc). If i just click OK and let it be all the text is sort of mangled together with little to no spacing. Any idea what I should do?

You for sure CANNOT use any Macintosh format fonts AT ALL on Windows.
Before OS X on Macs and the introduction of OpenType fonts (which are 100% cross-platform compatible for both PC and Mac), both TrueType and Type 1 fonts were supplied in versions for Mac or for Windows, and neither version would work on the other platform. This was the biggest headache for sharing files across platforms.
OS X gave Macs the native ability to use Windows TrueType fonts, as well as the older Mac versions, and many font vendors have stopped supplying two versions in TrueType and provide only Windows comaptible versions now, but there are still plenty of old TrueType fonts, and some new ones, that are Mac-only. If your colleague is using one of those, it just isn't going to help you.
The best solution, as Bob mentioned previously, is to switch to an OpenType font.

Hi Amit Bansal,
Thanks for posting in MSDN forum.
This forum is for developers discussing developing issues involve Excel application.
According to the description, you got an error when you open the document form SharePoint site.
Based on my understanding, this issue maybe relative to the SharePoint, I would like move it to
SharePoint 2013 - General Discussions and Questions forum.
The reason why we recommend posting appropriately is you will get the most qualified pool of respondents, and other partners who read the forums regularly can either share their knowledge or learn from your interaction with us.

Have downloaded both Adobe reader and PDF reader, but when I attempt to open a pdf from a site on safari, it starts to load, then disappears. Any way to fix this?

Have downloaded both Adobe reader and PDF reader, but when I attempt to open a pdf from a site on safari, it starts to load, then disappears. Any way to fix this?

Try quitting the PDF apps and Safari like I describe below. Then reset the iPad. After it starts try again.
Double click the Home button to show the screen with running and recently used apps. Each app icon will have a sample page above it. Flick up on the page (not the app icon) and the page will fly away and the app icon will disappear. This quits that app. Then reset your device. Press and hold the Home and Sleep buttons simultaneously until the Apple logo appears. Let go of the buttons and let the device restart. See if that fixes your problem.

Not able to open office documents from SharePoint site using Forms auth on a Mac with Office 2011

I posted the same question on the Mac Office forum (http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/mac/forum/macoffice2011-macstart/not-able-to-open-office-documents-from-sharepoint/7fba517b-ebd1-4e90-a54a-c70c5f035146?tm=1418836613595) but figured it's probably more
of a SharePoint question so I'm going to try here as well.
We just discovered an issue where a user logs into a SharePoint site using Forms based authentication. When clicking on an Office file they get
'Sorry, this site hasn't been shared with you' message:
The user can download the file and can also open the file within the browser (Office Web apps). This SharePoint site is on a Web app that uses mixed authentication (forms for external partners) and Windows/Kerberos for internal employees.
When logging into this same site as an internal user I am able to open the file just fine.
I checked the 'Microsoft Document Connection' settings and selected and deselected 'Enable Basic Authentication' and neither helped.
I also tried to add the site URL under 'Microsoft Document Connection' -> Add connection -> Connect to a SharePoint site. When I put the site URL in and click 'Connect', I get an error saying that 'Only connection to SharePoint or OneDrive
servers are supported' message. If I try the same thing as an internal user using Windows/Kerberos authentication I am able to connect to the site just fine.
Any ideas??

Hi Szamir,
As you are using Form Based authentication to open the documents from SharePoint site, I recommend to check the things below:
Make sure that the user has permission to view the documents in the site.
Please select "Sign me in automatically" when you sign in the login page.

Problem opening Office documents from KM

Hello, I have some problem opening Office documents from KM.
We stored a lot of office documents (Excel, Word ecc.) in a File System repository (the standard repository "/documents"), when I open one of these files, before to view the document, a little logon window appears, it asks portal user's credentials.
If the user presses the "Cancel" button the logon window will be closed and the document showed, but on the next attempt to open an office file the system will asks again the user information .
If the user gives the right information the documents will be showed and the logon window does not appear again..
How con I avoid the logon request for each Office document in my repository?
Any suggestion??
Best Regards

Thank you a lot Brad!!
We use Office 2003 and the note 549610 solves our issue!!
Best Regards.

Load XML file to XMLTable from FTP site Problem Oracle9i Release 9.2.0.7.

Hi,
I was wondering if it is possible to load XML file from FTP address directly to XMLType Table?
Can someone help me?
For example I have ftp site "ftp://test" and on this site I have file "file.xml"
and I would like to load "file.xml" to table "xml_tab" ?
I tried to use "load_xml" procedure and set DIRECTORY "xml_dir" to 'ftp://test' but I get this error
exec load_xml(p_dir=>'XML_DIR', p_filename=>'file.xml');
ERROR at line 1:
ORA-22288: file or LOB operation FILEOPEN failed
The network path was not found.
ORA-06512: at "SYS.DBMS_LOB", line 504
ORA-06512: at "P.LOAD_XML", line 8
ORA-06512: at line 1
Procedure looks like this:
(p_dir IN VARCHAR2,
p_filename IN VARCHAR2) AS
l_bfile BFILE := BFILENAME(p_dir, p_filename);

I have tried also with this
select xdburitype('ftp://test/file.xml').getCLob() from dual;
but i get error
ERROR:
ORA-31001: Invalid resource handle or path name "ftp://test/file.xml"
Can you pleeeeeeas show me a way to do this, thanks ???

This will not work.. Ypu cannot use FTP to 'PULL' a document into the database. (Yes I know there's a placeholder for an FTPURITYPE() but it was never implemented).
However you can use an FTP client to PUSH content into the XML DB repository. If the content is schema based XML associated with a known (registered) XML schema the content of the file will automatically be stored in the default table associated with the root element of the file. If the content is not associated with an known XML schema you can then use xdburitype to read the resource that was created when the document was uploaded into the repository

Error in picking files from FTP Site

Dear All,
I m using one communication channel of type FILE to pick the files from a FTP Site. Yesterday, the communication channel stopped picking the files from the FTP site. I checked the adapter in the Adapter Monitoring and it was green and was showing success messages in SXMB_MONI. I then just reactivated the complete scenario and the communication channel started picking the files again.
Is there a way to find out the trace or log in the server for the adapter or communication channel? Or how can I find out what went wrong.
Warm Regards,
N.Jain

Hello Nishant,
That is a problem which happens frequently( atleast i faced the same ) .
The issue is realted to timeout in your FTP Adapter (Connection Issue). Just check out the mode of connection in your file adapter is it permanant or reconnect after a certain time.
What you can possibly do is contact the team which maintains the FTP server...

Sumit

Problem opening OneNote notebook from Web App to Desktop App

Hi everyone,
Apologies if this is not the right forum. Hope someone can help me. I can't seem to open my OneNote 2013 Notebook which resides in SkyDrive (and is synced fine with my computer at home) in my copy of OneNote 2013 on my work laptop.
When I try opening the file from the Web App to the Desktop:
I first gett a message warning me about hyperlinks. That's fine, I click Yes.
The next message is about certificates, warning me that there is a problem with the site's security certificate.
The certificate is issued by a company I have not chosen to trust.
The name on the certificate is invalid or does not match the site
The security certificate date IS valid. I click Yes to proceed.
It now says:
We couldn't find a notebook at "https://etc.etc.etc/" A notebook usually has a table of contents file (*.onetoc or *.onetoc2)
Not sure why. As I say, it can do it from my home PC.
The problem could be with the network at work I connect to. I know the techies spent a long time trying to figure out which ports/domains to open to allow me to connect. They did it - mostly. I can access Skydrive from the web, but I can't sync files through
the Skydrive app sitting on my system tray. Weird that it works one way, but not the other.
It does open fine in the web app, but not when I try opening it from the desktop. I would much rather use the desktop app.
What do you think? Any suggestions?

Is anyone able to help with this please?

1.5.4 ora-00904 when opening a package from the connections navigator

Hi
I downloaded 1.5.4 for windows and immediately checked to see if this long standing bug has been fixed
1.5.0.53 New file types not opened as plsql (and now neither a
However it hasn't so next thing I do is go the connections navigator to open a package which is the workaround for the above bug (any update on when that is going to be fixed would be appreciated).
If I double click to open a package I get an error message
ORA-00904: "ATTRIBUTE": invalid identifier
A single click on a package does not give any error. Double clicking on the same package in 1.5.1 does not give any error message
Any ideas?
thanks

Stupidly used the rich text editor which doesn't seem to work too well

JB,
There actually is a post from the team in this thread ;-)
The patch on 3/30 was not scheduled to fix any other errors other than the import issue we encountered. We included an LDAP fix and a 9i performance query issue. The exact bugs fixed are listed in the check for updates detail before you download the fix.
All bugs can be logged with Metalink, that is the primary place for logging and tracking bugs. The forum is for discussions on how to use the product - for pointers and advice.
Paul,
By your long standing bug, I assume you mean that .pks, pkb and .plb files are opened in the PL/SQL Editor. This has been fixed in 1.5.4.
What has not been done and has been scheduled for 2.0 is the ability to associate any extension with a file and then open that file with the pl/sql editor.
For all encountering the ora-00904 error, this is specifically related to opening PL/SQL in a 9i database and we have a bug logged for that.

Adobe 9 opening pdf's from web site

We recently upgrade to Adobe 9 from 8 and have noticed a slowdown in the time it takes to download and open a pdf from a web page link. Adobe 9 shows a download to a temporary folder pop up before the pdf will open. Adobe 8 did not behave the same way and seemed to open the same link faster. Is this controlled by an Adobe preference? We are using IE 7.0 and have new pc's with plenty of memory and processor speed so I know it's not the hardware causing the problem. Or is there a setting in IE 7 that might be causing this affect with the new Adobe version. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance,
Tommy

i would suggest a de-installation of Acrobat 9. Run Microsoft Installer Cleanup to remove any dregs left in the Registry. Disconnect computer from the web, turn off all virus and spyware protection. Then re-install.

Problems opening pdf-files from KM of portal

Hi,
we store documents in our portal in KM. When I use pdf-files that where not saved with Office2007 tools I get the problem, that I can open the file once. If I open it the second time I get the error message "file doesn't start with "%PDF-". and the file will not be opend. If I delete the temporary files in the internet explorer, the file can be opended, again.
If I open the file directly in the internet explorer I don't have those problems, so it seems, that the portal uses a different viewer than the internet explorer itself.
Has anyone an idea how to solve this problem?
Regards
Ulrike

Ulrike,
I think this is a known issue.
Affected versions:
o KMC SAP NetWeaver 7.0 (formerly named 2004s) SP 14
o KMC SAP NetWeaver 7.0 (formerly named 2004s) SP 15

Problem installing a package from AUR

I'm not expecting anyone to install this package just to try and answer my question but,,
I have /home on a 10 gig space ext3 and it's only 2% full.
When I try and install doom3-phantasm, the package downloads, builds and when it's time to install a window says not enough space to install.
No way this single game is over 9.5 gigs.
I'm not even seeing where it's trying to install to.
Is this a problem with the package build or am I not seeing something?

I wrote the pkgbuild, so I've got it installed
$ pacman -Ql doom3-phantasm
doom3-phantasm /opt/

Alternatively, take a look in the "pkg" directory of where you built it, or just examine the .pkg.tar.gz installation file.
