Replacing Adobe forms with Smart Forms for printing FPM based forms

Hello All,
This pertains to HCM Process and Forms with Floor Plan Manager (FPM) based forms.
SAP has provided Adobe Forms as the standard print option for FPM based forms, as can be seen in the attached screenshot.
We want to use the FPM based forms without using Adobe Document Services (ADS). I am checking the feasibility of replacing the PDF forms with Smart Forms, either through configuration or customization.
System Landscape: ECC 6.0 EhP6
Any inputs or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Regards,
Arun.

Hi Ketul,
Irrespective of the process or scenario, we would like to use Smart Forms instead of Adobe Forms. As seen in the screenshot, SAP has provided the default option of generating a PDF form. This requires installing and using Adobe Document Services. We would like to remove this dependency on Adobe Document Services.
Instead, we would like to use Smart Forms for printing purposes.
This requirement is not tied to any specific process or scenario, but to any business process implemented using HCM Process and Forms framework.
Let me know if you need any further clarifications.
Regards,
Arun.

Want to create an oval vignette in photoshop elements 10 with transparent background for printing w

I am fairly new to PSE and I want to create an oval vignette in Photoshop Elements 10 with transparent background for printing on white paper using MS Publisher. Using the white background on inverse selection makes a slight line impression and either it should have a defined "frame" or nothing.
Appreciate any guidance.

Try with the Elliptical marquee tool:
On the tool's option bar set feather 25-40 px (experiment)
Drag out the Ellipse to embrace the object
Go to Layer>new>layer via copy, or CTRL+J
Your selection should fade out as a vignette and be surrounded by transparency
Save this layer via File>save for web, select PNG-24, and tick "Transparency"

thinking of replacing my macbook with an ipad for travel overseas, can I plug my iphone4 into the ipad for charging?

no
the USB does not out out enough power to charge anything.
And if you want to share chargers it's best to share your iPad charger with your iPhone. the iPad charger is a 10W charger, the iPod ones are 5W. So it'll charge, just not as fast as 'normal'

Replacing quotes/apostrophes with smart quotes/apostrophes

In previous versions of Pages, when pasted content included stardard quotes or apostrophes you could do a quick replace with smart quotes/apostrophes simply by doing a find and replace. Not so with the new Pages 5.
Anyone figured out how to force Pages to do such a replace? Manually trying to do it on a long document is crazy.

What's worse: I just did a global find and replace, trying to fix four dumb quotes in an entire document that I'd cut and pasted--and Pages turned every single smart quote into a dumb quote. In all 92 pages. 1,600 smart quotes dumbified. With no way for me to smarten them up again.
Then, because I'm just as dumb as my quotes, I did the same thing with my single quotes/apostrophes.
I know how I'll be spending my afternoon.

R12.1.1 How to Terminate Payment batch with status "Submitted for Printing"

Hello,
We have a requirement to terminate the payment batch which was submitted for printing. How can we terminate the payment batch which is in "Submitted for Printing" status? The reasons could be due to the issues with the data in XML file. Ex. Special charecters etc which printing software (Adobe/evergreen) fail to recognize.
We are on 12.1.1.
We appreciate your thoughts and help.
Thanks,

Thanks for your response. We do not see the terminate option. When we click on Take action we have a choice to reprint or record print status. On the dashboard the terminate option is disabled. Do you think there is any configuration to enable the terminate option?
Thanks,

In iWork 09, Numbers, how do I replace a formula with calculated results for a whole column?

I have a rather large Numbers spreadsheet. I have used a formula to create a new column of information. I now want to replace the formula with the actual results calculated by that formula for each cell in that column, so that I can delete some of the other columns. How do I do that?

Copy the cells with the results, then select the destination cell, and use the menu item "Edit > Paste Values".
You may want to paste to a different location in case you need the source data or formulas in the future.

Wayne

Problems with exporting PDF for Print

Hi all,
I would appreciate some help with exporting my indesign document (using v9.2, 32x) to PDF for print.
I have a number of images and text objects in the document and all links seem to be in place.
However when I come to export the document to print PDF, the PDF file is corrupted and has a size of 0 bytes. The export worked fine earlier when I did a test, but since I have added a few more images, everytime I go to export it, it will not work!!
I would be grateful for any help with this, it is infuriating when I have deadlines to meet! Many thanks.

I'd try a 'save as idml', reopen, then export.
If no go, rename your images folder (if separate) to break the links to images, and try exporting just the previews (you can't use this output, but it will tell you if there's a bad original image file). If a bad image, open images and re-save.
If still no go, try a full computer shut down and try again...

Help with exporting file for print

Hello,
I'm trying to print a banner through Spoonflower (a site that lets you print on fabric). They recommend an RGB, 150dpi file. (max 58" wide x 288" long, 40MB) and accept a wide variety of file types (ai, svg, eps, tif, png, jpeg).
My banner is rather large, at 50" wide x 236" long. The artwork was created in Illustrator, and consists of 2 colors with flat, line illustrations; no gradients, linked files, etc. File is about 1 MB. Because of Illustrator's canvas size limitations (227.5"), I set up my final artwork at half size (25" x 118" @ 300dpi) with the intention of scaling it in Photoshop to full size @ 150dpi.
Unfortunately, when I try to open the AI, EPS or PDF file directly in Photoshop, it compresses the artwork to 22.6" x 106.67" (from 25" x 118" - no idea why) and this throws off the layout of the banner, which is designed to fit a very specific framework. It means my artwork, when at 150dpi, is only 45" wide (I need it to be 50").
Next I tried exporting as a jpeg but keep getting the following error: 'The file could not be written due to error.'
When trying to export to PNG, I get this error: 'Could not complete the operation. The rasterized imag exceeded the maximum bounds for saving to the PNG format'.
I am at a total loss for how to proceed and would be so terribly appreciative if anyone could provide some insight...perhaps how to prevent the files from shrinking when rasterized by PS, how to actually save as a jpeg, png, or just a better way to go about this whole process altogether. What am I missing??
And of course, I needed to send this to the printer today to meet deadline...sigh.

If the site accepts .ai or .eps files why are you trying to move to a raster format at all?

Saving the same image with different croppings for printing various sizes

I've searched for this to no avail. I tend to always have a few pictures in rotation that I end up cropping multiple times when I am printing. Pictures where today I need to print a 4x6 and tomorrow it's a 5x7 of the same picture, etc. I am trying to figure out a way to save the file with that cropping. Ideally there would be a way that if I also modified anything else in the image that would also show up in the other versions. I know there is Create Virtual Copy, and that could work if I could then figure out how to change the file name so it would show that it was cropped for 5x7 or whatever. Are there any other creative ways I am missing?

When you create a Virtual Copy it is given an individual Copy Name (as well as the original file name)....default would be Copy 1, Copy 2, etc. However, that Copy Name is editable in the Metadata Panel, simply click in the name field and you can give it a more descriptive name, e.g "VC Crop 5 x7".

Layering with smart objects for architectural interior photos in PS

Help…
I was wondering if anyone has had experience of working on professional architectural photographs in PS?
I am interested in using and learning how to use the layering technique many architectural photographers use to produce different exposures of an interior in one image.
Many pros prefer this method I’m told, as it offers more control and flexibility than using HDR.
One photographer I spoke to said:
“I also bracket different exposures and use under and/or over exposures for extreme areas that need adjustment. Smart objects simplify things by using just one RAW file whenever in range”.
I don’t fully understand this; anyone got any links to websites etc I can learn more about this method?
Thanks..

Thanks Donald and Silkrooster,
Yes I am using multi exposures (RAW) with a tripod around 6-8 of them (stop apart, from highlights to shadows), as I was just going to use a HDR processor like Photomatrix or PS, however I using PS CS5 the other day the images look too fake, even when I bring the values down.
I need high reality & definition.
What I'm looking for is a great exposure range in my images, which I know cannot be achieved using just one RAW file.
The photographer I quoted at the start is a successful architectural photographer who uses multi RAW images in layers as smart objects (I guess so he can make adjustments back & forth without damaging the image quality?) and that he too found HDR too fake for his high end customers. He said it takes him a long time, I suppose he is creating layer masks it high detail of the section he wants the exposure to be different. This was all I could get out of him on his blog!
I’m familiar with this old method of laying as I used to do this many years ago using scanned slide film of different exposures in PS2, however it took a really long time (due to big files and slow computers) and I used to literately erase the layer above in parts I wanted the other exposure to come through. These offend used to go wrong and also crash the computer.
However now I understand people are using layer masks and RAW images (different exposures) as layers to have more control over the different exposures than if the different PSD files were imported.
I don’t know how you would use a RAW layer to adjust and process, colour balance etc?
My workflow at the moment is to produce the best image I can from a RAW image using Lightroom or Aperture 3, and import the different images as different PSD layers.
I cannot believe no one has come out with layering software or a plug-in to help this process with masks, exposure, aligning images etc?
Or have they but I don’t know about it yet??

Need help with saving file for printer

I am using Acrobat 9. I have a document with four pages. I need to save it in two files-- one file with p. 4 and 1 side by side to print on 11 x 17 paper, and the other file with p. 2 and 3 the same. The person printing does not have Acrobat so the pdf itself has to be formatted this way so they can print it. I can rearrange the pages, delete pages, and so forth, but I cannot get them to display side by side except in a "view" option.
Thanks for any help.

Thanks could remember that for nothing

Issues with pagination when using Adobe table with Web dynpro for ABAP

Hi All,
I am facing strange issue with table text.
I have three cols in table, one is of type Char255 and other two cols are of type string.
The text in the col 1 is displayed perfectly but in other two cols of type string whenever we have pagination the text in table is getting truncated and in next page new row starts.
Could you please tell me the settings that will enable flowing of text in the row of table to next page.
Thanks,
Arti.

Check the properties of the text field you use for those columns (if you want to control it on this level) or check the same attribute for the row subform (one level up control): "allow page break within content".
Regards Otto
p.s.: we all have deadlines... and manage to pay something back. Think about it.

Best way to work with .png files for print

My client suppllied 100 color .png files (screen captures), about 1700 pixels wide for his book. I opened one with Photoshop, saved as Tiff, converted to Grayscale, cropped to 300 dpi and placed in InDesign, but the InDesign file size is almost 2mb. Is there a better method?

That’s not what I mean at all…I mean what ever they are, they are. Just place them and be done with it.
There is nothing you can do with them in Photoshop that will make them better.
And you are incorrect…the fact that one page document is 2 megs does not mean the full document will 200. Graphics are linked, not embedded, by default.
Do not embed them.
I’m going to move this thread to the InDesign forum.

Issue with Smart View for Planning Connection

Hi All,
I'm facing this issue with Hyperion 11.1.1.3 & 11.1.2. I've created a connection in SmartView by giving the URL as http://ServerName:8300/HyperionPlanning/SmartView. After that i'm able to see "Servers" and when i started expanding that, it displayed the server name. When i clicked on the server name, it should display the Planning Application name right ? instead of that just a Cuble symbol is displaying. Do i need to make any settings for proper display of the Planning Application names ? This is perfectly working fine with HFM. I'm able to see HFM application names

Well, the thing I always forget and have pulled much hair out over is to add the essbase server access to the planning group.
Check on that, and I will loosen the rocks in my head to see what else I can suggest.
