Recommendations needed for document management app

I want to be able to mail text files in various formats (*.pdf, *.html, *.docx etc) to my iPad, where the
files will then be displayed by title.  I also want to add a couple of sentences of annotation to each item. 
I should then be able to display any given item with a click or tap.
I can mail files to my ibook app right now OK but I can't see any way to annotate an ibook entry and I
really need that.  
To review:  Imagine that I am working from my desktop.  I see a file I want to save to my iPad.  I
download it to my PC and mail it as an attachment to my icloud account.  I go to Mail in my iPad
and tap the 'Move' icon. The 'Move' icon gives me the opportunity to save it to the document management app,
whatever it is called.  I then go to that app and annotate the saved file. The annotation appears next to
the file title.  When I tap the entry the file displays. 
I assume the right name for an app like this is text management or file management or document management.
What does this???
Thanks,
Fred Hapgood

I do a lot of counselling about a very complicated and dynamic subject.  Right now I have to lug 20-30 pounds of reference texts from point A to point B to point C.  I bought the iPad Air in hopes I could store this material in the tablet.  But the reference material is complicated -- I guess I said that -- and I need lots of words to clarify what the subject is of each pamphlet and brochure, etc, before I can clearly differentiate one from the other.  Imagine I have documents A, B and C.  In the best of all worlds I would see a metadata display that looked like this:
File A -- Comments
File B -- Comments
File C -- Comments
Taking the filenames and the comments together I decide I need to look at C. I tap that and it displays.
That is the best of worlds.  But I see GR allows me to rewrite filenames and maybe doing that will get me to where I want to go.
It does seem strange that with all document-handling packages out there there isn't one that allows comments in metadata.  Oh well.
Thanks again,
Fred

  • Document Management App that runs on OS X Server?

    I need a CMS or EDMS application (for document management) that runs on the mini-mac server.  Others will access via browser.
    Thin-client application. Similar to DocuWare or OnBase or IBM Content Manager, but APPLE FRIENDLY!!!!!
    Many thanks - [email protected]

    Devonthink Pro Office is a Mac compatible document management solution. Most people would use the full-blown Mac application to access it but it also provides a web-interface which can also be used by PCs as well as Macs.

  • Repository for Document Management System

    Hi All,
    I need to devleop a repository [ just like Document Management System ] for my existed application which is handling the documents.
    If any user having access to the repository, opens the directory, he should not see any documents.
    Please let me know, what are the technologies to be used etc., etc.,
    Any suggestions or info will be appreciated.

    The file system is controlled by the operating system. Thus if you want to manage permissions at that level then you must use the OS.
    There are no "other" technologies for that. You can buy or find management applications which allow you to do the same thing that the OS does but via different user approach. Most will be specific to the OS because that allows the most features.

  • Authorizations for document management

    Hi,
    I'm trying to figure out what every authorization means and which effects it has...
    I created a new user, gave him all the necessary authorizations to use certain transactions in Document management by making a new role/profile for him
    After trying everything out, I still have a few questions:
    - with Authorization for change object link (C_DRAD_OBJ)I have the following properties:
    Activity: change, display
    document type: DRM-DRM
    linked SAP object: *
    document status: *
    I know how to display my object link, but how can I change it? <b>Do they mean with changing the object link, the creating of long text for the link or is there more to it?</b>
    - with authorization for document access (C_DRAW_DOK), I can't figure out what the options "Display Application archive" and "Change application archive" mean.  Which effect does it have when I choose them? Where do I consult the application archive? What is the application archive? => SOLVED
    - Do I also have to give the authorization "Display" when I want to give the authorization to delete something?  How can I delete a document info record without displaying it? =>SOLVED
    - <b>With "Status dependent authorizations for documents" (C_DRAW_TCS) what do the following options do?</b>
            *change application start (which difference with change?)=>SOLVED
    display application start (which difference with display)=>SOLVED
            *<b>request</b>
            *display archive =>SOLVED
            *change archive=>SOLVED
    I know it are a lot of questions but I'm making documentation on the authorization profiles of document management and when I figured those few last things out, I can share my documentation with the rest of you...

    Good morning,
    Havent been watching this thread for some time now, so please shout if you do have any questions.
    Just a quick note on deleting documents:
    Setting the deletion indicator will simply mark the DIR for deletion, but, it will still be on the dB.
    After you have set the DIR for deletion, you need to run the program "MCDOKDEL", which has a test mode and a real mode.
    This program will physically delete the documents that you have marked for deletion.

  • Looking for document management software.

    I am looking at document management software but can't seem to find what I need. I want something that creates a numerical file name for every document that I save that is automatically generated. In the PC world I know that Worldox does this but I cant seem to find something for the mac. I tried to get some help with this a while back when I was starting my business but had to make do with what I had and have been busy since then. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
    the goal would be to open a new pages document and it was save as "00001" then if I scanned something in after that it would be "00002" then the next pages document would be "00003" and so on.

  • Is AIR the right platform for photo management app?

    I need to build a web-enabled photo management app with the following features:
    server sign-in and authentication
    photos fetched from server via REST API/XML
    tag, rate (i.e. 1-5 stars), and edit properties for photos, with data updated on or sync-ed with server
    all the RIA UI goodies, like multi-select, drag/drop, AJAX-style auto-complete, overlay icons on thumbs,
    all the photo management goodies, like fast scrolling, histograms, resizeable thumbnail
    able to handle 1000s of photos in 1 album (server is on a local LAN)
    One key issue is how the platform loads an album with 1000s of photos in the background, and scrolls through pages of thumbnails. I tried before to build this in Java and all the threading issues were too much for me.
    I have good experience with CakePHP & MySQL and some experience with Java, but I am resigned to learning a new platform/libs. I just need to know where to invest my learning time.
    Can some experienced users pipe in on whether AIR the right platform for me to build on? Should I use Javascript etc, or learn Flex?
    Is there anything out there I could just build on? I'm also considering building on Yahoo YUI or Google GWT as an alternative.
    thx.
    m.

    Let me clarify the issue of 1000s of photo. I the app would need to load thumbnails for 1000s of photos, but only open the full size photo when the thumbnail is clicked. probably 120px max dimension, pre-rendered on the server. I have tried to open 1000 thumbs in a plain html page, and the photos come quickly - as if from the local file system - but it does seem to slow the UI until everything is loaded.
    Is there a way for AIR to load the thumbnails is the current "view port" immediately, and the rest in the background? YUI has an imageLoader class that does something like this. Could I use this within AIR?
    The other requirement is to manage a DB of tags ratings, and other attributes for the photos, but I can't imagine that is a big challenge. right?

  • BOR or CLASS for Document Management Service (not SAP DMS for PLM)

    Hi All,
    Does anyone know if there is already a BOR or CLASS that can be used in Workflow that works with the Document Management Service?  This is in reference to the diagram displayed in the following link
    http://help.sap.com/saphelp_crm40/helpdata/en/15/aea9375d79fb7de10000009b38f8cf/content.htm.
    I assume that there must be a BOR or CLASS that uses DMS that I can use with workflow.

  • Pages.   Is there a better document management App?

    I have had Pages for a few months.  I downloaded it, knowing it had some editing drawbacks.  But one major irritant is that documents copied to Pages drops text - even whole sections of a WORD document.  Of course, it messes up text in tables but I didn't expect it to drop so much.  Frankly, I am now reluctant to bother with it.
    There are a number of other apps which refer to documents.  But I wonder if there is a recommended one?  I don't want to pay, say, $20.00 and find it to be little better than Pages.
    Thank you.
    Ron

    I've never used pages, but I do use Documents to Go and I've been happy with it. I don't think they have a free version you can play with, however other apps do if you want to try the free version (Lite) to see if they are worth paying for.

  • Solution Manager - WF for Document Management

    Hi all,
    I wonder if any of you have experience with developing workflows in Solution Manager?
    I basically need to trigger a simple workflow when there is a change of status in a document stored in the Solution Manager (tcode SOLAR01, Proj. Document tab).
    I know that object type SOLMANDOC is available and I know that event signature_process_start is published when the user signs the document. I am not sure how the event gets published - perhaps it is hard coded somewhere, I am just not sure. Any ideas how I can find out? Perhaps I can enhance the code to publish other events?
    I have posted the question in Solution Manager forum, but haven't had much luck with it yet.
    Thanks in advance for any help you might provide.
    Cheers,
    Cristiana

    Hi,
    So far this is what we have done.
    on SWE2 we have generated the following triggering event:
        object category: Bor obj type
       obj type: solmandoc
       Event: Signature_process_start
       Receiver type: {defined Workflow}
    Linkage settings
       Receiver call: Function module
      Receiver FM: SWW_WI_CREATE_VIA_EVENT_IBF
    These settings would trigger your Workflow.
    You should be able to create the task for your workflow based on each of the methods on the BOR object.
    Currently we are using the SIGN method since it allows you to both Review and sign the document.
    Current Challenges: we are only allowed to sign the document twice. Once when created and once when reviewed.
    We are currently working with SAP in order to allow multiple signature process.

  • Recommendation needed for duplicate clean-up and photostream settings

    Good day. We have 2 iphones and macbook and an iMac. The iMac is our main photo repository.  However, it has become overpopulated with photos. In iPhoto, I have the automatic import selected, so I have all kinds of duplicate photos now.  I also imported all my wife's photos from her iPhone too.  Now I'm going through 1 by 1 to sort, move photos to events, remove duplicates, etc.
    I think I'm good on the settings moving forward, but I'm looking for a way to efficiently review and remove photos.  Any recommendations on this? 
    The other question I have is once IOS photos are imported and tagged with 'photostream' on my iMac - I assume I must delete these to remove them permanently, ie - they are not part of my 1,000.  Once they are imported to the iMac from photostream - they are on there until I delete them correct?

    You can use one of these applications to identify and remove duplicate photos from an iPhoto Library:
    iPhoto Library Manager - $29.95
    Duplicate Cleaner for iPhoto - free
    Duplicate Annihilator - $7.95 - only app able to detect duplicate thumbnail files or faces files when one library has been imported into another with iPhoto 8 and earlier.
    PhotoSweeper - $9.95 - This app can search by comparing the image's bitmaps or histograms thus finding duplicates with different file names and dates.
    DeCloner - $19.95 - can find dupicates in iPhoto Libraries or in folders on the HD.
    OT
