Property Loader and then Save File

I have an application where I'm programmatically building my sequence file from a spec document.  I generate a CSV that has all of my properties, and build a dummy sequence from template functions.  I can import the properties to this file using Import/Export, save the file, and then run the rest of my generator sequence, but I need to automate the whole process.
I am able to use the property loader step from the sequence that I'm actually generating and the parameters are loaded without a problem.  I attempted to move this into my sequence that builds that sequence, and it didn't work.  I GetSequenceFileEX before loading to make sure it's open, perform the load, and then Save the sequence file and ReleaseSequenceFileEX, but it's not doing anything.  Is what I'm trying to do possible, and if so, what am I doing wrong?
Thanks,
Bryan

Hi Bryan,
First let me make sure I understand your situation.  It sounds like you've already built the sequence that can programmatically build a sequence of template functions then populate using a Property Loader step in the generated sequence.  You are hoping to remove that Property Loader from the generated sequence and instead have the generating sequence load the properties and embed them as defaults in the generated sequence.  This way you would avoid having to run the Property Load step every time you ran this sequence.  Is this correct?
Assuming it is, I believe this exceeds the capabilities of the Property Loader functionality.  It isn't designed to "push" properties to another sequence.  Therefore your options are to either stick with the Property Loader step at the beginning of your generated sequence or implement the parsing and assigning of the CSV to manually populate the template steps.
Please post back if I misunderstood you or you have additional questions.

  • When I open a pdf file in Firefox and then save, how do I set the initial directory to be closer to what I want instead of a temp directory?

    When I choose to save a pdf file directly when using Firefox, it works perfectly. However, when I choose to open a pdf instead and then save it, the save directly displayed will always be a temp directory and it would be more convenient for me to choose a directory closer to where most of my files normally go. How do I change this?

    Hi,

    16bit? Pixels extending beyond the canvas? (from a crop with delete unused pixels turn off).  Have you previously been saving PSD files?
    IME you sometimes have to tell Photoshop that the first save of a session is JPG, and it remembers from there on.  The way to 'tell' Photoshop that JPG, or PDF, or PNG etc are now your preferred format is to Ctrl (Cmd) click on that format in the Save As drop down list.  So long as the file does not have parameters that your chosen format does not support, then this should work for you.
    [EDIT]  Just noticed that you did include 'Crop' in the subject line.  Do you have 'Delete cropped pixels' checked?

  • I had a windows laptop, and I save files like photos, documents, videos and other things on an external hard drive, and now I want to move those files to the Mac book Pro, and then move those files again to another external hard drive 1T. My question is:

    I had a windows laptop, and I save files like photos,documents, videos and other things on an external hard drive, and now I want tomove those files to the Mac book Pro, and then move those files again toanother external hard drive 1T. My question is: Is it possible? Doing this willnot affect the files that I had in windows? No information is lost? or how cani do it?

    Connect the external drive to your Mac and drag the files from it to your Mac's internal drive. Then dismount and disconnect the external drive, connect the 1TB external drive, and drag the files from the internal drive onto the external. Nothing will have been deleted from any of the drives up to this point; the files will only have been copied. Verify that the files are readable. There's no reason they shouldn't be; this is just a precaution.
    Now if you wish to delete the files from any of the drives, drag them to the Trash, and Empty the Trash while the drive from which they came is still connected. If you disconnect the drive before emptying the Trash, the files you were trying to remove from it won't be deleted. They'll remain in the Trash and continue to take up space on the drive.
    Note that if your external drives are in NTFS format, you won't be able to write anything to them or delete anything from them, though you will be able to read and copy the files they contain. The NTFS disk format is read-only to the Mac OS, unless you have a third-party NTFS driver installed. To make your drives cross-platform readable and writable, you must reformat them in the FAT32 or ExFAT format.

    We use a doc template to create a purchased part spec document and then save them as pdf formatted files.  These part spec documents are also appended with the datasheets for these purchased parts.  When we want to update/revise the document, is there a method, using Acrobat, to make those updates to the pdf, or must we go back to the doc template and basically generate a new document?
    Also, our resulting pdf documents aren't searchable.  How can we generate pdf documents that are searchable?  I may want to search for a part value or name within the body of these pdf documents, but currently can't do that...very inconvenient.
    Can you assist?

    Not totally sure about the search issue. A lot depends on how you created the PDF and what is in the datasheets you attached (like are they graphics?). The doc portion should be searchable as long as you used print to the Adobe PDF printer or PDF Maker. For your use, it may be that the print is adequate. However, the result should be searchable (unless maybe you had a form with filled in fields and created the PDF with PDF Maker. I think the form data may be retained in form fields and the fields are not searchable. In that case, a print might be a better procedure. (it would help to know the versions of WORD and Acrobat as well as the exact process you used to create the PDF.)
    If the appended data sheets do not change, then you might try opening the original PDF and then using Replace Pages to replace the file created from the DOC file.

  • How to open a file, process it with different runnables and then save it

    Hi,
    I want to read an image file, then process it using different runnable classes and then save the output in a different image file.
    In which order should I put the threads? Each process has (of course) different execution time, so I need to know where to put the wait() or lock statement.
    Any idea?
    Thanks

  • Can I edit with Smart Print the same way I could with Smartweb Printing and then save as PDF files.

    With Vista basic and SmartWeb Printing you had the option to edit your pages and then to save or print them in the PDF format. This way you could customise various pages pages, save them to a file and then reopen the whole file to see if you wanted to make any further changes before printing the final copy.

    Maybe you don't need that. I prefer using Apple's Image Capture for scanning.
    Right now I am working on scanning documents into PDFs. The Canon software lets me create multipage PDFs which is something I've been wanting to do. My question is, is it best to scan images as JPEGs and then save them as a multipage PDF or is it best to scan into PDF directly (which the scanner seems to offer as well) and then save as a multipage PDF? I'm thinking in terms of the best optimization of file size vs. image quality and things like that.
    Let the software do it for you. That will be fewer steps for you. Image-based PDFs are going to be large. There is no way around that. If they are too large, you can use Preview's Save As feature and play around with the Quartz Filter.
    Is the scanner actually doing anything differently when scanning into JPEG vs. PDF? Or is the scanning all the same and it's just the saving of the file that is different?
    Scans are scans. The JPEG file format is lossly and will look worse than other types. If you are scanning in photographs, the JPEGs will look good. If you are scanning in crisp text, JPEGS will have lots of artifacts and look bad.
    In general what dpi setting is usually sufficient to use to scan a basic text document without taking up too much file space?
    I pretty much always keep it at 300 unless I need something special or when the original is really small and I intend to blow it up.

  • Unable to make changes to a jpg file and then save it without the program trying to change it to a psd [was: What a Pile of Crap!]

    Can't even make changes to a jpg file and then save it without the program trying to change it to a psd!!!!!  No wonder nobody like Adobe anymore.

    Do you mean that PSD comes as a default option or that JPEG is not available no matter what?
    Did you add a layer?  Did you change the bit depth?  Did you add transparency?   The JPEG format does not support layers, nor 16-bit images, nor transparency.

  • Printing to PDF using Chrome, and then save as a Word doc.

    I want to print a webpage using Chrome to PDF, and then save that PDF to a Word document.
    The problem is occurring when saving the PDF to a Word doc, as the Word document is blank.
    Im using Adobe Acrobat X, Chrome version 32.0.1700.107 m.
    (This question may seem a little strange/pointless, however current workflows within my workplace requires documents to be saved from online as PDFs, sent as PDFs, and staff then either save as PDFs or some convert the files to word documents as necessary)
    I can already do this using Firefox, but saving to PDF using Chrome is significantly faster.

    I'm sure you're aware that here you have an Acrobat user-2-user forum. Note a generic Q&A forum for non-Adobe products that, coincidentally, can create PDF.
    The quality of Export from Acrobat or Adobe's online subscription services very much depends upon the "inner quality" of how the PDF was created.
    GIGO is very much operative.
    Good In Good Out -- Garbage In Garbage Out. Sounds like you have the later.
    Regardless what is making the PDF is not Acrobat. Consequently "process support" would be with the software house that is responsible for the process.
    Be well...

  • How do you have a long video in the timeline and then save it as separate parts?

    I'm looking to record playthroughs of video games and putting them on youtube. So what I would be doing is recording about 2 hours of footage. I'm trying to find out how to cut that 2  hours of footage up into 10 minute clips, and then save each individual clip as a separate file so I can upload that part onto youtube. If that is hard to understand, sorry, I'm bad at explaining things. But if you understand and know how to do this, please answer. Any help is appreciated. Thanks in advanced!

    I agree that using the WAB (Work Area Bar) for the desired Duration, and then Sharing that, would be the best route. This ARTICLE goes into more detail on the WAB.

    fault message type

    Hi Spring,
    If u give an exception step along with your Transformation Step, whenever some error occurs in your message mapping, this exception block wil be triggered.
    You can configure your exception block to do all exception processing that you want. This exception handling is like any other java Exceptio n Handler. You can do anything that you want in your exception handler block on the basis of your requirements.
    <i>If an exception is triggered at runtime, the system first searches for the relevant exception handler in surrounding blocks. If it does not find the correct exception handler, it continues the search in the next block in the block hierarchy.
    When the system finds the correct system handler, it stops all active steps in the block in which the exception handler is defined and then continues processing in the exception handler branch. Once the exception handler has finished processing, the process is continued after the block.
    If the system fails to find an exception handler, it terminates the integration process with an error.</i>

  • URLLoader - how to wait until URL is loaded and then contine...

    Hello,
    I have litle problem because I don't know how to load
    external XML file, wait when loading is completed and after that
    continue with next code.
    Consider following situation. I have a function in
    actionscript, let's say, handleXML()
    function handleXML() {
    someURLRequest = new URLRequest("some XML file");
    someURLLoader.addEventListener("complete","LoadCompleted");
    someURLLoader.load(someURLRequest );
    Alert.show("Print Second")
    function LoadCompleted(event:Event) {
    someXML = XML(someURLLoader.data)
    Alert.Show("Print first")
    The problem is, when someURLLoader.load is called, Alert
    window with Print second is displayed and then "Print first" alert
    is displayed because flex perform action behind someURLLoader.load
    and then perform function LoadCompleted().
    I would like that first, when someURLLoader.load is called, flex
    wait until external XML is loaded, display "Prinf first" alert AND
    THEN continue with code and displat "Print second" alert.
    It is possible to do it someway??
    thanks for help

    Hi, thanks for answer, but I think it is the same:) So what
    happens if I change your code like this...
    srv = new HTTPService();
    srv.url = "some XML file";
    srv.resultFormat = "xml";
    srv.addEventListener( ResultEvent.RESULT, loadCompleted );
    srv.send();
    Alert.show("Print Second")
    function loadCompleted( event:ResultEvent ) : void
    someXML = XML(event.result);
    Alert.show("Print First")
    In this case, after calling srv.send(), next code in the
    fuction is performed, so the Alert "Print Second"" is dsplayed.
    After that, URL request is completed and "Print Second" appears. I
    think it is because data calls are asynchronous. Is it there a
    possibillity to wait after calling send() function, until the
    request is processed and then continue with code which the send()
    function was called from ? It means, first Alert.show("Print
    First") is executed and then Alert.show("Print Second").???

  • Problems loading and saving pdf files from sites with latest version.

    On my utilities I wish to download and save pdf files of my e-bill.
    Lately when I click on getting bill, Firefox opens new tab and stops.
    with a light message in url place saying "Type a web address".
    To get around this I must do a right click on the save bill and
    select open in new window, then it opens a new copy of Firefox,
    and two tabs, with the second one asking me to use Adobe to see
    pdf file. I tell it to open and then save it and print it from the tab
    that opens with the pdf file in it. This never happened before was
    always able to just click on link and it would open new tab with
    pdf file there.

    Thanks for the replies. I don't think I was clear enough with my question.
    What I want to be able to do is to click on a PDF file in my Firefox browser and be able to save it as an Adobe PDF file, not a Preview PDF file, in any folder on my computer, rather than just the specified default location for downloads. This way I can save, for example, phone bills in the phone bills folder and bank statements in the bank statements folder without having to save them to the desktop, "Get Info" on each, and change the "Open with:" box from Preview to Adobe Reader.
    Fortunately, thanks to Michael's post, I found an add-on from Firefox that allows me to do just that: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/636
    Thanks for your help. Now, within my Firefox browser, I can choose whether to view or download PDF files, always in Adobe rather than Preview, and when I save them I get the option to choose the location each and every time.
