Question about linking to pdf and doc documents

When I link to pdf or doc pages in my web page they always down load to the down load folder and then I have to go find them and then double click on them before they open. Is there anyway to get these type documents to open automatically when they are selected in my web page?
thanks

Word documents should always download and. There is no Mac option to just "Open" those files. With regards to the PDF format that is a little different.
If you have a Mac with a Core Solo or if you are running Safari in 32-bit mode or Camino then then Acrobat should be set to open the files in a browser. In the preferences for Acrobat make sure Fast Web View is selected and make sure you have Acrobat set to open up the PDFs.
If you are have a Core 2 Duo/Core ix Mac then you are by default in 64-bit mode with Safari. If this is the case unfortunately Adobe has not released a patch to make the PDF reader plugin work in 64-bit mode. Adobe's "fix" is to run Safari in 32-bit mode which isn't a fix and Acrobat is long overdue for an update. But that aside, Preview should open up the PDF documents. If that is not opening up the PDF in the browser I would have to look into it a little more. Probably a corrupted plugin but I would even know where to replace it off the top of my head.

Attach .pdf and .doc files to Reply emails.

I am desperately trying to figure out how to attach .pdf and .doc files to Reply emails in the Mail app. I have downloaded GoodReader, but when I go into "Manage Files" and choose "Open in...", Mail is not one of the apps listed for me to choose from (only Quickoffice and iBooks are listed, that's it). My Gmail account is pushed to the Mail app, if that's relevant at all.
I'm hoping to be able to attach documents to Reply emails in the Mail app, but if I have to do it using my web-based email, that's better than nothing. I just really need to be able to attach them to Replies, and not compose a new email from scratch.
I'd REALLY appreciate any help with this!
Thanks.

I thought I might be able to figure out a clever work-around by using cut and paste from a new message but this did not work as expected. I have been using the MobileMe iDisk app to store pdf files and then just mailing out the links. I believe my cut and paste method would have worked with this, however I've got about a year now to figure out another way to do this if it is not included in Apple's new cloud service. This has actually been a better as I need to worry less about file size and don't need to have the files stored on the device.
You may want to look into what on-line file storage solutions are out there and if they have the ability to send links to files to colleagues, possibly with password protection.

Profile PDF and DOC/PDF

Hello
I have a document that contains a status network.
When document is RE (Released) has 2 originals (PDF and DOC).
My question is:
I need a profile that has following rules:
1 - User can access both originals (PDF or DOC)
2 - Another user can access only PDF.
Can I help you?
Regards

HI,
Your problem cannot be solved by just PFCG. Try this approach
1) Create profile which displays only the PDF files.
2) once u do that u'll observe that in cv03n u get a filter icon which controls whether all files or only pdf appears
3) now create a transaction variant for cv03n using SHD0 and disable the filter icon in this variant.
4) assign a t_code to this variant and then instead of giving access to cv03n for all users.. provide access to this new variant t_code to the users who are to have restricted access.
This works pretty well. tried and tested solution.
Regards

.pdf and .doc files corrupted on 2 Macs?

On an iMac and a shared Mac Mini, a number of PDF and DOC files have all of a sudden gotten corrupt. Some of these have not been modifed in 2 years but all of a sudden are corrupt. I've tried Data Rescue and cannot find anything online about these multiple files getting corrupted. I've rebuilt permissions and done various ML Cache Cleaner options to no avail. Anyone heard of anything like this? It just happened all of a sudden on 2 computers. At first I figured the first computer had the partition going bad but that doesn't explain 2 computers at once.

Dear M.V,
with the same above configuration, now I am able to open pdf's which are having a size lessthan 2 MB.

Is it possible to batch print .pdf AND .doc files together?

I need to let users to batch print a set of files that includes both .PDFs and .DOCs. Since <cfprint> allows .PDF files only, what would you suggest?
Thanks!

That raises a large RED Flag that you may be misunderstanding the <cfprint...> functionality. <cfprint...> can NOT print to a printer that is configured to the clients computer. So if that is what you are looking to do, you need to be looking at Client side technology. But be aware, that current, common, browser based web applications generally have very limited connections to client hardware. If you are willing to get into Flex, Flash, Air (or another company's technologies) you could probably do more. But HTML and JavaScript currently do not have much access to the hardware of a client computer.
The <cfprint...> tag is designed to send a print job from the SERVER running the ColdFusion application to a printer connected to that server. IF you are writing programs with no knowledge of the server network configurations (I.E. an application meant to be sold to various customers) this becomes much more difficult to do. But if you are writing a CFML application to be run on a known network, which is what many of us do, then it should be pretty easy to know what printers are connected to the server running ColdFusion and figure out what capabilities those printers have.

Urgent Help Regarding PDF and Word Document Downloading

Many Thanks Shaik for you humble help. Actually now what I did in the past 3 days,
I used Oracle Intermedia to store my PDF and Word Documents in the database using Oracle SQL Loader. Then I used PL/SQL Server Pages and Oracle Web Toolkit for the downloading of my documents.
Now the problem is I saved all my formatted documents in the databse and for retrieval I am using following code in my stored procedure
* Select BLOB Data
select blob_data into myblob from mytable where blob_name = name;
Setup headers which describes the content
owa_util.mime_header('text/html', FALSE);
htp.p('Content-Length: ' || dbms_lob.get_length(myblob));
owa_util.http_header_close;
Initiate Direct BLOB download
wpg_docload.download_file(myblob);
end;
The structure of the mytable table:
create table mytable
doc_id varchar2(128),
doc_name varchar2(128),
blob_data blob
But when it prompt the client to download the file actually it gives the junk file name like 'B104ea56' (which i understand is the address of the blob address). What I want is to show the "SAVE AS" download box with the proper document name which is stored in my field in the following way
1 SALES.PDF
2 PLANNING.PDF
3 MANUAL.DOC
4 STANDARD.TXT
If I set the MIME type for the file format than it automatically starts download the file to the client browser, that I do not want, It should ask the user to download with the proper document name.
Waiting consiously for your help
Regards

Presumedly you'd like those documents being accessiable by users as well, so they should be put on a web server, ftp or nfs sharing. You can just add the urls to those documents, or the directory they are in, into robot system as starting points and let robot run to collect them.

Upload pdf or doc documents in WM 6.2 Header lavel .

Hello All , I want to upload PDF and .doc files in WM 6.2 from iPad in Workorder header level . it seems i cant store pdf or doc in iPad device or when browse then i cant find any .pdf or .doc document. can you provide some suggestion ? how to upload .pdf or .doc file from iPad for WM 6.2 ? Thanks & Regards, Kunal Varaiya

Kunal,
Due to the way Apple sandboxes the applications on the iPad they client doesn't get filesystem access like on other platforms to be able to choose documents from other applications. The client does have access to it's own Documents folder where through iTunes you can sync in documents and then attach. Not a great process but currently all that is available right now.

Question about suitability of iPhone and specific comparisons

I like the Verizon network (for which I'm considering upgrading to the Omnia II) but am thinking about biting the bullet and going to AT&T for the iPhone. I use Macs at home and at work. My main uses will be phonecalls (with reliable voice dialing from my car - bluetooth stereo and earpiece), mail (Exchange server access for calendar, mail, and addressbook), internet through the cellphone network (not wifi) - browsing, SFTP, VNC, etc., watching videos, photos, and listening to music, calendar reminders (as well as periodic sound reminders for missed calls, voicemails, etc.), opening PDF and Word documents, GPS (ideally with spoken driving directions),and Skype. Given these uses, can anyone advise me if there's anything here that is a problem for the iPhone?
thanks,
Mike

"VNC"
There are pretty nice VNC clients for the platform, the best being Jaadu VNC. (See my just-published "Everything you will ever want to know about the remote desktop controllers on the iPhone" for more info if interested; it's been cross-posted to several iPhone forums. Not this one - yet - as I still don't have Level 1.)
watching videos
The 3G S (but not the 3G!) is far better than current for example Windows Mobile or Symbian phones in that it can play back MPEG-4 / H.264 videos without excessive power consumption. That is, if all your videos are in this format, the 3G S is the way to go.
Nevertheless, if your videos are in DivX, XviD or - even worse - WMV, you won't be able to natively play them back - you'll need to transcode them first.
This, unfortunately, also means WMV streaming TV stations are far harder to watch than on, say, Windows Mobile. The only AppStore app ("Streamer") supporting them is really bad and delivers dismal performance, even on the 3G S.

Drag them to your iTunes library. Download the free iBooks app. Select the PDFs you want too sync in the iTunes books pane. The iBooks app will show your books collection or your PDFs collection as you select.

Photosmart C6180 prints too many copies of PDFs and HTML-documents

Hi,
My Photosmart C6180 prints multiple copies of documents even if I haven't asked for it. This seems to only apply to PDFs and HTML-documents, I haven't seen it happen with Word/Excel. It's not consistent, it happens most of the time but now always for these documents. When I look at the console, when it has started printing I see shortly the status "Printing - Restarting". That's probably when it starts the 2nd copy. Sometimes it stops by itself, other times it seems to be looping and I have to turn the printer off and delete the document from the queue.
HP solution center SW is updated, I run Vista with latest service packs on a Thinkpad T400s.
Any ideas?
Thanks!

My C6180 printed multiple copies of any document from my Vista OS laptop ( wireless connection ), but not from my
XP OS desktop ( USB connection), even though I selected 1 copy on the print menu. Unchecking "Enable bidirectional support" in the Properties / Ports dialog box solved the problem. Hope this helps someone too.

Storing PDF and Word document in oracle database

any idea, how to store PDF and word document using oracle database.

The common approach is store as BLOB in database, use DBMS_LOB package to handle the loading and reading, sample script source asktom

Certain pop up windows are not apperaing on my screen. Save as PDF and Doc preferences never appear

Certain pop up windows are not apperaing on my screen. Save as PDF and Doc preferences never appear, and lock me out until I press return. So they are active, I just can't see them. Any ideas?

They are obviously off the screen somewhere. Did you have a dual monitor set up at one time? You can try increasing the resolution of your screen to see if you can get a part to show or maybe just resrt the preferences (Cmd(Ctrl)+Opt(Alt)+Shift as you restart AI) to reset the defaults.
