Removing hidden sections of several overlapping objects

Hi
I'm looking for any options that could help with removing the hidden sections over numerous overlapping objects. I have plenty of objects that lay over each other in this design, and now my client is thinking about getting it screen printed. Is there a shortcut for this that would save me a mass amount of time? (other than using Pathfinder on each and every one?)
Thanks!
Eric

There is nothing wrong with objects that overlap. The bits that don’t show won’t print unless something is set to overprint.
Just check your artwork with Overprint Preview turned on.
If everything is as it should be then you’re o.k. for print. No need to do any drastic editing.
Silkscreen has nothing to do with it except possibly that you might want to use spot colours instead of CMYK. You should check with your printer on that one.

Mouse Over listener on several overlapping Objects.

Hello guys,
I have the following Situation... I want to place on stage different Objects:Sprite with some partial overlap...
I have added eventListeners to the Objects but it only calls the handler function of the object at the top.
Is there a way to call the handler function on multiple objects on the same time?
thanks!
Gustavo

well.. see for yourself. i pasted here my code. it is very basic and simple. everything in red (inside the function) is simply an animation copied as as3 code... thus i dont think that causes the problem..
btn1.buttonMode = true;
btn1.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_OVER, animate1);
var btn1_animator:Animator;
function animate1 (event:MouseEvent):void {
var btn1_xml:XML = <Motion duration="7" xmlns="fl.motion.*" xmlns:geom="flash.geom.*" xmlns:filters="flash.filters.*">
    <source>
        <Source frameRate="24" x="106.25" y="93.25" scaleX="1" scaleY="1" rotation="0" elementType="movie clip" instanceName="btn1" symbolName="btn_container2">

thank you so much, by the way, its the second time in a row you are assisting me with tiny problems

Need to control rendering resolution when removing overlapping objects in Acrobat X Pro

When removing hidden information from a PDF using the Acrobat X Pro function Tools | Protection | Remove Hidden Information or Tools | Protection | Sanitize Document, Acrobat appears to remove overlapping objects by rendering the entire page into an image at, from what I can tell, 144 dpi. This resolution is too low for my purposes as small text becomes hard to read both on screen and when printed. Is there a way to control the rendering resolution?

What I was refering to by flattening is the "flatten image" function in Photoshop. As in the option directly below merge visable and merge down in the layers flyout menu. For some reason running that function or the rasterize function in the object menu in illustrator is the only way I can make sure transparecny boxs dont show up when I print through my Fiery Rip software. Like I mentioned this method works well with individual pages in multiple page pdfs, but I often have to do this for many images at a time. It would be nice to be able to do the same thing in Acrobat to the whole pdf all at one time.( Of course what would really be nice would be if people would submitt their files correctly to avoid this problem in the first place but that is asking way to much)

Overlapping objects in hidden information and OCR

when i use text recognition, i can search for words. This works great. I also need to remove all hidden information, which removes 'overlapping objects', which disables the text recognition. is there a way to have zero hidden information in acrobat and at the same time have OCR?

Nathan, there are a couple of techniques you can use to make this kind of work easier. First off, you can assign a build animation to an object and then move it do a different place on the slide and the animation will still work. So, in your case, you could create the replacement objects, apply the build in you want, apply the build out to the original objects, and only then slide the replacements on top of the originals (using the guide lines to line up exactly).
Alternatively, you can use the Send Backward and Send Forward menu items to manipulate the objects. If you have two sets of objects (grouped together), one original and one to be the replacement, you can move the original in front of the replacement, apply your build out, then send the original backward, and the replacement set should now be on top (presuming these are the only two groups on the slide). You can even put icons for Backward and Forward into the toolbar of the Keynote window for easy access (in the View menu, select Customize Toolbar).
I hope these tips help.

Remove hidden information without converting to RGB

I'm preparing a PDF for one-color printing, and it has some color data off the page that's messing up our prepress process. So I ran "remove hidden information" to cut that data out, but it converted the entire file from CMYK to RGB. I obviously need the file to stay CMYK (getting it down to just K was the whole point). Is there any way to remove cropped/overlapping data without converting to RGB?

You might try running the Preflight single fixup under Pages to "Remove page objects which are completely outside of page area" instead.

How to disable 'Remove Hidden Information' popup when closing PDF in Acrobat X on Mac?

How do I disable the function that causes the 'Remove Hidden Information' popup when closing PDFs in Acrobat X? I'm using OS X 10.9.4 on a Mac?
I've searched online and was directed to Preferences>>Security (enhanced) to uncheck 'Unable Enhanced Security', but it wasn't checked.
This box (see screen shot) opens each time I close a PDF. I'm forced to select an option before closing.
Please help.
Thanks.

Go to the menu Acrobat>Preferences
In the Preferences window's "Categories" pane, select "Document"
In the "Hidden Information" section deselect both check boxes
Click the OK button
You should be good now.

Remove Hidden Information tool

Hi,
I would have a question regarding Acrobat's 'Remove Hidden Information' tool. Under Tools, Protection there is the 'Remove Hidden Information' tool. When I click it the results can be seen on the left side. Under 'Comments and markups' the sum of objects can be seen. I figured out that it detects bookmarks, links (internal, external) and objects described here: http://help.adobe.com/en_US/acrobat/X/pro/using/WS58a04a822e3e50102bd615109794195ff-7e7f.w .html.
But it also detects some other objects as well which I am not aware of (based on the number of objects detected). I also know that it counts 2 objects when using 'Replace text' from the link above.
Does anybody happen to know what additional types of objects does this tool detects and how to search for them in the document?
Thanks for your help,
Csanad
I use Acrobat version 10.1.5

The hidden text is the collection of glyphs on the PDF page that use text rendering mode 3 (no stroke, no fill).
Any links placed in association with such hidden text are not "hidden" (that is not how it works with PDF Link annotations - see ISO 32000-1:2008).
Any Link annotation placed in a PDF are the same as any other Link annotation (with the exception, of course, of whatever the link's Action happens to be).
So, no special sauce for links that were placed in association with now removed "hidden text".
In context of what you've written it may be that you will have to select - Ctrl+click the Link annotations of interest then tap the Delete key.
Be well...

Sanitize or Remove Hidden Info INCREASES File Size

When I remove hidden information or sanitize a document, it nearly doubles the size of the original file. Why?? Shouldn't the new scrubbed file, if anything, be smaller?

From what you write above it sounds like all is normal and expected.If you keep adding to the file it will increase the file size.
Keep in mind that AI has unlimited undos it has to store this information somewhere, it would be pretty unreasonable to expect it to do this without increasing the file size and also if you add effects or other live operations that has to increase the file size as well even if those operations do not seem live to you.
That means it has what the object was and then it has was the object is now and it has what the object was and is as yet another contained package so to speak.
16 bit may change this somewhat. But one has to expect this. BTW the more points you have in a file the more it can have effect on how well AI will work and may also increase the file size.
But I think this all sounds as one should expect.

How can I remove selected sections? [js][CC2014]

Hello,
I'm trying to remove selected sections from my document.
I figured out how to remove them by index number like this:
var myDoc = app.activeDocument;
var mySections = myDoc.sections;
mySections[1].remove();
When I try to limit the removal of sections to just my selection, I keep getting errors. I've tried:
var myDoc = app.activeDocument;
var mySections = myDoc.sections;
var mySelection = myDoc.selection;
mySelection.sections[1].remove();
And:
var myDoc = app.activeDocument;
var mySections = myDoc.sections;
var mySelection = myDoc.selection;
mySelection[0].sections[1].remove();
But I keep getting Error 21 undefined is not an object on line 5.
Any help is much appreciated.

I'm trying to remove the section not the content. It would be the equivalent of selecting the first page of a section in the page panel, then right-clicking on it and clicking on "Numbering and sections..." and then unchecking the "Start Section" checkbox.
That's what the first code snippet does. But I was only able to do it by index number.
I've read in other posts that it's difficult to specify selections in the page panel using scripting. I'm not sure if it's even possible.

Best practice "changing several related objects via BDT" (Business Data Toolset) / Mehrere verbundene Objekte per BDT ändern

Hallo,
I want to start a
discussion, to find a best practice method to change several related master
data objects via BDT. At the moment we are faced with miscellaneous requirements,
where we have a master data object which uses BDT framework for maintenance (in
our case an insured objects). While changing or creating the insured objects a
several related objects e.g. Business Partner should also be changed or
created. So am searching for a best practices approach how to implement such a
solution.
One Idea was to so call a
report via SUBMIT AND RETURN in Event DSAVC or DSAVE. Unfortunately this implementation
method has only poor options to handle errors. Second it is also hard to keep LUW
together.
Another idea is to call an additional
BDT instance in the DCHCK-event via FM BDT_INSTANCE_SELECT and the parameters
iv_xpush_classic = ‘X’ and iv_xpop_classic = ‘X’. At this time we didn’t get
this solution working correctly, because there is always something missing
(e.g. global memory is not transferred correctly between the two BDT instances).
So hopefully you can report
about your implementations to find a best practice approach for facing such
requirements.
Hallo
ich möchte an der Stelle eine Diskussion starten um einen Best Practice
Ansatz zu finden, der eine BDT Implementierung/Erweiterung beschreibt, bei der
verschiedene abhängige BDT-Objekte geändert werden. Momentan treffen bei uns
mehrere Anforderungen an, bei deinen Änderungen eines BDT Objektes an ein
anderes BDT Objekte vererbt werden sollen. Sprich es sollen weitere Objekte geänderte
werden, wenn ein Objekt (in unserem Fall ein Versicherungsvertrag) angelegt
oder geändert wird (zum Beispiel ein Geschäftspartner)
Die erste unserer Ideen war es, im Zeitpunkt DSAVC oder DSAVE einen
Report per SUBMIT AND RETURN aufzurufen. Dieser sollte dann die abhängigen Änderungen
durchführen. Allerdings gibt es hier Probleme mit der Fehlerbehandlung, da
diese asynchrone stattfinden muss. Weiterhin ist es auch schwer die Konsistenz der
LUW zu garantieren.
Ein anderer Ansatz den wir verfolgt hatten, war im Zeitpunkt
DCHCK per FuBA BDT_INSTANCE_SELECT und den Parameter iv_xpush_classic = ‘X’ and
iv_xpop_classic = ‘X’ eine neue BDT Instanz zu erzeugen. Leider konnten wir diese
Lösung nicht endgültig zum Laufen bekommen, da es immer Probleme beim
Übertragen der globalen Speicher der einzelnen BDT Instanzen gab.
Ich hoffe Ihr könnt hier eure Implementierungen kurz beschreiben, dass wir
eine Best Practice Ansatz für das Thema finden können

I purchased Adobe Elements Photoshop 12 & Premiere 12 together from a camera shop in town. When I tried to use the Premiere, it splashed "created with the trial version" over all of the photos. How can this unsightly watermark be removed. It has severely hampered my timeline to start and finish this project. Why would a purchase software product purport to be a "trial" version?

This indicator will appear when you have not registered your product or typed in the serial number for the product.
Once you've added the serial number, any future products will not display this indicator.
To remove this this indicator from videos created before you added the serial number, you'll need to delete the rendered files.

Series Primary Overlaps object AR Credit Note

Hi Experts,
My customer is set up with a numbering series with Primary and extra numbering series for AR Credits and AR Invoices.
The Primary Series is set to:
First No: 1
Next No 4999
Last No 4999
The AR Credit Series is set to:
First No: 5000
Next No: 5055
Last No: none
Other documents, such as Incoming Payments and GRPO are set to use the Primary series but no more documents can be added as it has reached the last number.
We cannot extend the Last Number as we get the error: Series Primary Overlaps Object AR Credit Note.
Is there a way round this? One idea I have is to set up a new Series for the 'other' documents.
Thanks
Greig

To really fix this you will need to terminate the Credit Memo numbering and rethink your over all numbering consumption and then plan the spacing between series and create new series based on this.
Just Curious
In the System Init. > Company Details > Basic Init.. tab
Is Permit more than one document type series checked ?
You are correct - this explains the strange workings of the numbering. I think we need to implement one series per document type to get around this issue.
I believe this set up is designed for Belgium.

HT201322 How do you remove hidden purchased apps permanently?

How do you remove hidden purcased iphone applications (Apps) permanently?
When you delete the app from your iphone and also the from you Mac computer, they are just hidden and not deleted pernanently !!!!
There isn't and option to allow you to do this. Maybe this is a safeguard to secure and not to accidently delete purchases but as with most delete functions 2 or more levels can be built in with confirmation at each to minimise this but ultimately the user's need the option to completely temove all unwanted items purchased or not.

You can't delete the purchase record as far as I know.
You can hide it from reappearing as a purchase to download:
