Resizing RichMedia Annotation

We embedded a flash application in a PDF document using the new flash embedding tool available in Acrobat 9. We also have some JavaScript in the document to programmatically resize the RichMedia annotation when reader opens the document. But it seems the AnnotRichMedia.rect property is read only although it says R/W in the Spec. The following code is what we tried to resize the annotation:
annot = getAnnotRichMedia(0, "RMTest");
annot.rect[0] += 50;

How do I quit getting emails from this forum. My issue is resolved

Subject: Re: Flex4 compiled Flash content doesn't run in Adobe Reader
Alexander,
Linux AR9.3.1 uses flashplayer 9 and so is unable to cope with SWFs
produced by FLEX4 which is aimed at flashplayer 10. So what you're
seeing is a simple incompatibility and for the time being you'll have
to stick with FLEX3.

  • AR9.4.2 /RichMedia annotations are broken

    With Linux AR9.4.1 I was dismayed to find that the JavaScript/ActionScript bridge
    for /RichMedia annotations was broken. Now with AR9.4.2 I find that the
    /RichMedia annotations themselves are broken.
    I've tried a number of example files, from different sources, and whenever
    a /RichMedia is present I get an alert box with the message "A 3D data
    parsing error has occurred." For instance, to check this behaviour, try:
    http://pdfdevjunkie.host.adobe.com/pdf/VideoPlayerTwoEmbeds.pdf
    These bugs are quite unfortunate, especially now that some scientists
    are looking "Beyond The PDF" for their document needs.

  • Problem with Annotations

    Live could be so easy... , if Annotations would offer more comfort.
    I have following needs and problems in my application:
    1. transparent Annotations (only with MinMaxRegion possible?)
    2. All Annotations should be moveable and resizeable with the mouse.
    3. There should be access to all Annotations (and their corresponding edit points) even if they are on top of each other.
    4. On MinMaxRegions with only x values (full y range) there are no edit points (small white rectangles to catch them with the mouse)
    5. All lines and edge points of Annotations should be accessable to move and resize the Annotation (like in nearly all drawing programs)
    6. Annotations should be really transparent (although they are colored) that no overlapping Annotation hides other Annotations.
    7. Is there a possibility to get the current marked Annotation (edit points are activated)?
    8. If TrackMode = cwGTrackAllEvents is activated the CWGraph1_AnnotationMouseMove is available but with TrackMode = cwGTrackDragAnnotation not!
       Also the AnnotationMouseDown and AnnotationMouseUp event are then not fired.
    The behaviour can be tested with the attached test program.
    Are there possible workarounds for the listed points?
    Do anybody know, if NI plans an update for the Annotations?
    Helpful suggestions and code snippets would be appreciated.

    hello gz-stefan,
    for not implemented features you can submit up a productsuggestion.
    point 1,5 and 6 are currently not implemented. if they get implemented it will be in MStudio for .NET.
    2: The arrow and caption of an annotation is resizable at runtime, but the annotation itself is currently not resizable.
    8: This is expected behavior. You can point to the help for CWGraphTrackModes. Events are automatically handled if you have "DragAnnotation" as the Trackmode. Thus, all of the mouse events will not fire. They are expected to be handled by you if the track mode is "TrackAllEvents"
    can you provide some further information for points 3 and 4?
    regards,

  • PDF w/embedded Flash via RichMediaAnnot crashes Mac AdobeReader9.1

    I am trying to learn exactly how to embed a Flash animation in a PDF using the RichMedia
    annotations. I based my work on the example from the ISO3200 supplement, section 9.6 RichMedia.
    I created a very simple PDF file, by hand, so I could understand how all the objects
    work together. I borrowed a very simple flash swf file and embedded it.
    I have posted it at:
    http://www.affexion.net/test/PDF/test_swf.pdf
    This PDF opens and the animation can be activated and played on Windows XPSP3 with
    Adobe Reader 9.1
    However, on MacOSX10.5.6Intel (my target platform) with Adobe Reader 9.1, it opens, but
    the flash animation never plays, the Reader hangs, and eventually crashes (really crashes - it presents a dialog about reporting the crash to Apple.com - I haven't since its not really an Apple problem)
    I would guess that I have something arranged wrong with my PDF file syntax or organization,
    but I can't for the life of me figure it out. I ran it through JHOVE and it said it was valid and
    wellformed.
    Many thanks for any help.

    I get an error message - "there was a problem reading this document".
    I haven't looked at why yet...

  • How to embed 3d pdf into 2d pdf?

    I created a 3d pdf (outside of Acrobat) and would like to embed this file into a 2d pdf using Acrobat X. When I add Multimedia > 3D object and try to insert the 3d pdf file, Acrobat says that the file is not a supported file type. Is there a way to embed this directly (so the model can be seen when the 2d pdf is opened), rather than as an attached file or link? I would like to avoid using an U3D file, as the file became very large and responds slowly to commands.

    All you need is Acrobat.
    If you want to copy the entire page from the 3D PDF to the 2D PDF, open the page thumbnails sidebar in the 2D PDF, and from the options dropdown menu choose Insert Pages > From File. Pick your 3D PDF and choose where you want the page to be inserted. You can also open both files in separate windows, and drag the page thumbnails from one to the other (not the pages, the thumbnails).
    If you want to copy just the 3D annotation, open both files in separate windows, and open the Tools Pane > Content Panel in both so you can activate the "select object" tool - the big black arrow. Click the 3D annotation to select it, then choose edit>Copy (Ctrl-C), then in the destination PDF file choose Edit>Paste (Ctrl-V). You can move and resize the annotation while you have the select object tool enabled, and any embedded 3D scripts, views, poster images etc will be preserved.
    The only thing you may find is if the source and destination pages are in different orientations, copy/paste may rotate the poster image. To fix that, right-click the pasted annotation and choose Properties, then re-create the poster image.

  • How can I resize a pdf page content with annotations and highlights in Acrobat Pro?

    How can I resize a pdf page content with annotations and highlights in Acrobat Pro while maintaining page size and annotation/highlight interactivity? I've tried to use the crop tool in Acrobat Pro (9) and the page does resize, but the highlights and annotations go all over the place. I specifically need to scale the page content smaller (83%) but maintain page size and annotation/highlight to content connection and interactivity.

    An old trick (not recommended) would be to print to a new PDF with the page size selected but a scaling of the content. Only print the document, not the markup, to a new PDF. Close that PDF when done and reopen the old one (or maybe a copy of the old one for safety) and use Document Replace pages and select the new document to replace your current pages. You will then have to go back through the markup to locate it all correctly. There may be a more elegant way, but this may be the fastest.

  • Problems Editing Previous Annotations with Preview

    Hi,
    I was just wondering if anyone else has had a similar problem with Preview and/or has any advice on how to fix it.
    Ever since upgrading to Mountain Lion, I've been having problems whenever I try to edit any of my text annotations in Preview. All of my notes for school are given as PDFs, so I have always used Preview and the textbox function to take notes during lecture. Before I upgraded, if I opened a previously-annotated document to study from and wanted to change something or add to the text, I would simply double-click the textbox and be able to fix it in 1 second.
    Unfortunately, trying to make any changes to annotations has become a major process ever since switching to Mountain Lion. 
    Basically, as soon as I double-click any textbox to edit something I wrote at an earlier time, the box will shrink up to a single line that goes off the page and into oblivion. I have to resize the textbox over and over again just to fit it back on the page, which can be time-consuming and frustrating when paragraphs of text are suddenly condensed to one line that extends ten miles beyond the margins. It happens both with older documents from Lion and with the new documents I've only downloaded and annotated since upgrading to Mountain Lion. I thought maybe it was just my computer, but I tried it on a friend's Mac with Mountain Lion and had the same problem.
    I have only used Preview for everything, so all of my annotations have been made using the same program. Also, it gives me no trouble if I try to edit as long as the document remains open; it only happens after I close out of a document and open it up again at a later time (even if it's immediately after closing it). Unfortunately, I can't keep 200+ documents open on the chance I might need to edit them at some point.
    If anyone has any clue how I can stop this from happening in Preview or has a suggestion for another good PDF editor (aside from anything Adobe preferably), I would really appreciate it!!
    Thank you very much in advance.

    This is happening to me too! It's so frustrating especially since I've come to love Preview before upgrading to mountain lion. At first glace it seemed Preview had become more userfriendly with the textbox, line and circle drawers all separate icons now but the textboxes are such a pain. I know it only takes an extra 5 seconds or so, but by the time you add all the 5 seconds' up, it's heaps of time. It's especially hard if I'm listening to a lecture and I have to stop and fix my textboxes while the lecturer is still talking.
    Sorry this isn't much of a solution, but I hope you don't feel alone dealing with this flaw!

  • Can you add annotations using an AcroAVDoc when opened using OpenInWindowEx?

    I am writing a C# application in which users will need to annotate documents. I would prefer to use Acrobat's standard annotation tools (and toolbar). I am currently using the command OpenInWindowEx(filename, handle, AVOpenParams.AV_EXTERNAL_VIEW, ...) (of an AcroAVDoc object) to open a PDF in a window that my application can control. Unfortunately I cannot seem to get the annotation tools to display. In fact, the whole thing appears to be read only (with the exception of e-sigs). When using just the Open command of an AcroAVDoc the file opens in Acrobat and behaves as expected, but then I cannot resize the window or move it with the other windows of the application.
    Thanks for reading,

    All,
    I moved the project from .NET 3 to .NET 4 to take advantage of dynamic objects, and hoped to be able to use the same type of syntax as one can use in VB.NET to work with the JSObject. Unfortunately, no matter what I try, I get the exception "Value does not fall within the expected range." Can anyone advise on whether we can use dynamic objects?
    Example:
    AcroPDDoc pddoc = new AcroPDDoc();
    pddoc.Open("C:\\test.pdf");
    dynamic jso = pddoc.GetJSObject();
    jso.Collab.showAnnotToolsWhenNoCollab = true; // or jso.console.Show(); it doesn't matter anything seems to throw the exception
    Thanks,

  • Cropping multiple clips, then resizing canvas - how?

    I've made a simple video in iMovie 10 that I'd now like the crop and resize. The tricky part is that there are 3 separate clips, so when I use the crop tool, they shift. I tried selecting all, then Edit/Connect, but that didn't seem to help. Once I figure out how to make the crop, I'd like to resize the canvas in order to create more whitespace around my subject (LCD display of a CDJ)
    I realize my question may not be clear, so I've made a screencap of my iMovie workspace with annotations. Hopefully this will make sense to one of you helpful people!

    Hi
    I don't think You can do that in iMovie. (any version)
    I would Export out and use QuickTime Pro to change this - then re-import the result to iMovie and movie project.
    or rather - I would do this in - FinalCut Pro

  • 3D models imported from U3D show in small window in the middle of document. Any way to resize this?

    When I open U3D file with acrobat, it turns 3D into document. Problem, however, is that size of the area where model is shown, is too small and fixed in dimensions.
    If I recall correctly, Acrobat 9 automatically resized 3D area to whole window size. Acrobat X, however doesn't do this.
    There's no image handles or anything to fix this neither. I went through properties/3D options and nothing there also.
    What to do?

    If you are converting a U3D file into a new PDF file, then the annotation fits the entire page but it is set to open at "100%" scaling and usually that's quite small - so you simply need to change the initial view > magnification settings under File > Properties.
    If you're placing a U3D file into an existing document, the size of the annotation is fixed on the page at author time.

  • Adding Text Annotations - Canvas Size?

    I am looking to take screen shot and add annotations to them.
    However, it is quite a bit of text so I was hoping to somehow put
    my screenshot in the center and have some blank canvas around it to
    add the text to. I cannot find the option anywhere to do this.
    Please help!

    Welcome to our community, Amy
    There are a couple of ways I can think of to accomplish your
    goal.
    1. Create a new blank project sized as you want it. Paste the
    image in the center and annotate as desired.
    2. If you already have a project, you might click Project
    > Resize Project and make the new project larger. Note that you
    really shouldn't do this more than once as quality will suffer. If
    you aren't sure, click File > Save As and save a throwaway copy
    first.
    Cheers... Rick

  • Text Annotation Options

    I am making slides with text annotations and I am hoping I am

    Hi Amy
    There are a number of different Caption styles available. If
    you don't like the list you see, scroll to the bottom and choose
    "<Custom>". This should allow you to browse. If you look
    where the Captions are, you should find a "More" folder. See if any
    of those appeal to you. If none of those appeal to you, you are
    free to create your own.

  • Resized animated gif ImageIcon not working properly with JButton etc.

    The problem is that when I resize an ImageIcon representing an animated gif and place it on a Jbutton, JToggelButton or JLabel, in some cases the image does not show or does not animate. More precicely, depending on the specific image file, the image shows always, most of the time or sometimes. Images which are susceptible to not showing often do not animate when showing. Moving over or clicking with the mouse on the AbstractButton instance while the frame is supposed to updated causes the image to disappear (even when viewing the non-animating image that sometimes appears). No errors are thrown.
    Here some example code: (compiled with Java 6.0 compliance)
    import java.awt.*;
    import java.awt.event.*;
    import javax.swing.*;
    public class Test
         public static void main(String[] args)
              new Test();
         static final int  IMAGES        = 3;
         JButton[]           buttons       = new JButton[IMAGES];
         JButton             toggleButton  = new JButton("Toggle scaling");
         boolean            doScale       = true;
         public Test()
              JFrame f = new JFrame();
              f.setDefaultCloseOperation(JFrame.EXIT_ON_CLOSE);
              JPanel p = new JPanel(new GridLayout(1, IMAGES));
              for (int i = 0; i < IMAGES; i++)
                   p.add(this.buttons[i] = new JButton());
              f.add(p, BorderLayout.CENTER);
              f.add(this.toggleButton, BorderLayout.SOUTH);
              this.toggleButton.addActionListener(new ActionListener() {
                   @Override
                   public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent e)
                        Test.this.refresh();
              f.setSize(600, 300);
              f.setVisible(true);
              this.refresh();
         public void refresh()
              this.doScale = !this.doScale;
              for (int i = 0; i < IMAGES; i++)
                   ImageIcon image = new ImageIcon(i + ".gif");
                   if (this.doScale)
                        image = new ImageIcon(image.getImage().getScaledInstance(180, 180, Image.SCALE_AREA_AVERAGING));
                   image.setImageObserver(this.buttons);
                   this.buttons[i].setIcon(image);
                   this.buttons[i].setSelectedIcon(image);
                   this.buttons[i].setDisabledIcon(image);
                   this.buttons[i].setDisabledSelectedIcon(image);
                   this.buttons[i].setRolloverIcon(image);
                   this.buttons[i].setRolloverSelectedIcon(image);

    Download the gif images here:
    http://djmadz.com/zombie/0.gif
    http://djmadz.com/zombie/1.gif
    http://djmadz.com/zombie/2.gif
    When you press the "Toggle scaling"button it switches between unresized (properly working) and resized instances of three of my gif images. Notice that the left image almost never appears, the middle image always, and the right image most of the time. The right image seems to (almost) never animate. When you click on the left image (when visble) it disappears only when the backend is updating the animation (between those two frames with a long delay)
    Why are the original ImageIcon and the resized ImageIcon behaving differently? Are they differently organized internally?
    Is there any chance my way of resizing might be wrong?

    It does work, however I refuse to use SCALE_REPLICATE for my application because resizing images is butt ugly, whether scaling up or down. Could there be a clue in the rescaling implementations, which I can override?
    Maybe is there a way that I can check if an image is a multi-frame animation and set the scaling algorithm accordingly?
