Scan letterhead into pages as a business form

Is it possible to scan my business letterhead into pages as a blank form or create a template of it? I want to be able to type right onto my letterhead, instead of typing onto a blank form and then printing onto my letterhead

You can scan your letterhead and place it on a Pages document as a background (just paste it in and send it to back). Or you can create a template that has the image on it. Do be aware that if you use a scan, you are essentially putting a large image on the page, which will greatly increase the file size (and will be at the resolution of the scan). You might have better results re-creating the letterhead from scratch in Pages, using the original high-quality (or better yet, vector) graphics.

  • Scan images into Forms app / Twain scanner

    Can you provide your thoughts on how to have a Form ***QUICKLY*** scan and crop passport photo size images from a scanner
    Speed of data entry is essential so I would like to minimize the total time and keep the mouse and key click count down.
    I would like to do as much as possible within the form window. Scanning directly into an image on the form would be nice as the current app does this via a Twain scan
    The scanned image will be stored in a file (either on the Forms application server or in the client MS-Windows file system ). The file name will be stored in the database and displayed in the form. Im not sure if the image needs to be displayed in the form window or not.
    The scanned images are passport sized photos of face.
    The user needs to make minimum changes to the photo - usually only cropping.
    Are there any Java beans that will help do this ? Should I use OLE via WEB_UTIL ? Any other ideas ?
    Thanks
    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
    Environment : Forms 10g (9.0.4.0.19), Database 10gr2, Window client, Linux / Unix application server, scanners are Twain compatible or can scan to file.
    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

    Thanks - that is the info I was hoping for.
    There are Forms java bean solutions from two different people on that page. Ill try and get in touch with them and see if I can sponge the code off them.
    In the meantime, please post more suggestions if you have them

  • 8x11 Business Form scanned in shrinks when opening up in Internet Explorer.

    Scenario: I have a 8x11 Business Form I scanned and saved as a .jpeg file. I create a frame, I insert the Business Form image above inside the frame. I then create a repeating frame around the Business Form above so that I can display the pertinent data onto the image I just inserted. I run the report in Oracle Reports and I get the desired results in the live previewer. Additionally, When I invoke the report from Oracle Forms via a push button, the report displays in Internet Explorer just fine;
    Problem: As soon as I decide to print a hard copy of the report, the hard copy turns out to be a shrinked version of the report. The hard copy is just simply smaller and not displaying as the 8x11 I originally scanned in. It's almost like, regardless of the image size scanned in when it prints out Oracle Reports shrinks the image. But again it looks fine from an electronic perspective.
    My Point: I need the image to maintain it's scanned in size electronically and when I print a hard copy out. Any ideas Oracle Developers on what I need to do to achieve the desired results?

    How forgetful of me, all that was required was to adjust the margins. Thank you, self :-)

    First I would suggest that you read the documentation about working with Active/X.
    The online version is in the documentation section of Forms on OTN.
    Then, you insert the scan.ocx into your form. you use the ole importer to create a pl/sql package to communicate with the ocx and you are ready to start calling methods such as scan etc...

  • How to fetch the tabular form column value into page items

    Hi,
    I have created tabular form. I have set LOV for one column. Here my requirement is when i select the value from lov then it will fetch that value into page item.
    can any help?
    I am using apex 4.1
    Thanks
    vijay

    It's not so easy to make a dynamic action on a tabular form.
    The best thing you can do is to use the javascript API from APEX: http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E23903_01/doc/doc.41/e21676/javascript_api.htm
    So if you have a tabular form then open your item and make it a column link.
    In the link location select URL.
    Your URL would be something like this
    javascript:$s('P1_PAGE_ITEM', #COLUMN_ID#);doSubmit('COLUMN_ID');The doSubmit is not required but if you don't submit your page then the server would never know about your page item.
    Off course it is possible to submit at a later point. For example you can just use the $s to set the value off an item and afterwards create a button that would submit your page.
    Be aware that if you just set the value off your page item and just link to an other page without submitting or without branching that other page would never know about your page item.
    If you want the server to know the value off a page item you need to submit it's value to the server. The easiest way is just to do the doSubmit() call after you have set your value.
    Hope this helps,
    Regards
    Nico

  • Possible to carry link selection into subsequent page that is a form?

    Say you have a web page named page_1.  There are five hyperlinks on page_1 that point to another page that is a form called form_1.  Form_1 has a field in it called field_2.
    The five hyperlinks on page_1 describe different selections that could possibly populate field_2 located on form_1.
    Is it possible to carry forward what link was click on page_1 and have it automatically populate field_2 on form_1?
    That way you only have to create one form but have the field populate based on which link was clicked leading to the form.  Is this possible?

    Page 1 links -
    <a href="page2.php?variable=red"
    <a href="page2.php?variable=green"
    <a href="page2.php?variable=blue"
    <a href="page2.php?variable=heliotrope"
    Page 2 logic -
    <?php
    $foo = array_key_exists('variable', $_GET)?$_GET['variable']:'';
    ?>
    Page 2 HTML -
    <input type="text" value="<?php echo $foo; ?>"....
    Doesn't get much simpler than that.  I don't do ASP or ASP.NET with any facility, and I don't have the javascript chops to carry that one either.  So this is how I'd do it.

  • Unable to refresh spreadsheet pasted into pages from numbers

    Hi. I'm building a business plan using pages and as we paste the financials into the pages document, I am not able to refresh the spreadsheet in pages when it is changed and saved in numbers. In the help tab and on the forums a "refresh" button is referred to but I can't find it. Some other notes. I seem to have built the plan in "word processor" in pages instead of in "page layout." Can't tell the distinction between the two. Also, I'm taking a full budget in numbers and hiding most of the cells before pasting into pages. Having this capability work as "advertised" would be a huge time saver.
    Thanks.

    I'll tackle one part of your questions:
    *Word Processing mode:* The document has a default area of text inside the set margins. Text fills this area and flows from page to page as needed. The pages form with the text, expanding and retreating with the tide of text within. This text can be indexed in the T.O.C. and may have footnotes. WP mode also has background and master objects which appear on each page and can be deleted from those pages at one stroke.
    *Layout Mode:* The document consists of nothing but individual unconnected pages. Everything on those pages is a floating individual object, with the exception of headers and footers. Text can be linked between textboxes (WP can do this too) by manually linking them, even across pages. Layout mode is much more restricted than WP but simplifies designs by removing some of the clutter.
    You can not simply turn one mode into the other. But you can copy/paste text and objects between them.

  • ORA-06502 on "Help Text" region when changing pages on a tabular form

    Hello everybody,
    We are developing an application on Apex 4.1.0.00.32. This application have some pages with tabular forms and these pages uses a page zero as template. In this page zero, we have added two sidebar regions: a list region to navigate on the application and a help text to describe how to use our application.
    The problem occurs when the tabular split the records into pages (since it has more records that it can show on a single page). When the user clicks to change to another page, Apex raises an ORA-06502: PL/SQL: numeric or value error as described below:

  • HI Iam trying to get into my account in Adobe Form Central and when i click on sign in..not working

    HI Iam trying to get into my account in Adobe Form Central and when i click on sign in...the screen shows " this page cannot be displayed" is there a problem with the site?

    I just found that Amazon web services does have a network issue with one of their instances that is affecting some regions around the east coast, this could be affecting your ability to sign into FormsCentral.  They will likely have that back up soon and assuming that could be the issue it should be fixed shortly.

  • Issue tabbing across page breaks in dynamic form

    Hi all,
    I have a strange problem that I'm having trouble getting to the bottom of, relating to my dynamic form.
    This form grows and shrinks depending on how the user fills it out.  I have a questionnaire section where certain questions are hidden or shown depending on previous input.
    Things get interesting when I look at the tab order.  Sometimes when tabbing forward or backward across page breaks, the focus lands on a spot that I cannot identify.  There will be no cursor and I can not type.  However if I continue to tab in the same direction, I can see that it is still going in the correct sequence.  It just looks like for some reason, in those places, focus is put in the wrong component.  But if I type different input into the prior fields (ones that affect the length of the pages) that causes the field to move to different place where it's not adjacent to a page break, and then tabbing to the field in either direction works fine.  It seems that only when it's beside a page break, it becomes problematic.
    Also, it only seems to be a problem if the field gets moved to be adjacent to a page break AFTER the form is initially rendered.  If the field was originally beside a page break by default, then it seems to work fine.
    Just to rule out a possible problem with the tab order configuration, I set my from to Automatic tabs, and even went as far as removing all the <traversal> elements from the form.
    After doing either of those things, the problem still persists.
    Has anyone seen this before?

    Hi Eric,
    I have seen funny behaviour when tabbing within Preview in LC Designer. It may be picking up a read-only item in the Master Page.
    Good luck,
    Niall

  • Scanned document missing pages

    Have three (3) w/s, two (2) with Acrobat 8 Pro (8.1.2) and one (1) with Acrobat 7 Std (7.0.9) running in Win XPsp2 on Dell Optiplex 745s. One (1) 8.1.2 machine and the 7.0.9 machine have IE7 installed, the other 8.1.2 machine had IE6sp1 installed. All machines have Sophos AV installed which is current and has not caused problems previously.
    A Fujitsu fi-5650c scanner is attached to each machine
    All three have been successfully scanning large documents (100+ pages) to PDF to locations on the network and the machine's HDD for some time. Today, scanning documents over five (5) pages frequently results in some pages in the resulting PDF document being blank. This is regardless of whether scanning to a network location or the local HDD.
    Only event in last week was user letting 2 of 3 machines install Windows updates,(auto updates have now been turned off), specifically KB945553, KB941693, KB948881, and KB948590. Significantly, whether or not the updates were installed, the problem persists. Removing the updates installed during the period has no effect. Acrobat updates are disabled and none have been installed for well over a week.
    Anyone have any thoughts??

    If you have a scanner, it usually comes with OCR (Optical Character Recognition) software. Use that to convert your scan to text and bring that back into Pages.

  • Got a wp doc. made back in 1989 - 90 with a Mac SEII, about 70 pages long. Is there any way to translate this and get it into Pages on my new Mac without owning old machines and operating systems to see what i wrote as the Berlin wall was coming down?

    I've got a document , some 70 pages long that was made back in the late '80's with Pagemaker on an SEII mac. The docs are on 2 floppies, but I can't open them, because I can't find any application that can read the files. I've got other documents that go back to 1984, when I bought my first Mac, that I can't open, either. I'd like to be able to get these files into Pages and send them out to family once again. Any recommendations?
    Thanks.

    No other application can open PageMaker files, only PageMaker. You'd need a copy of PageMaker (and license) and a Mac of ancient vintage, one with a floppy drive. The ancient Mac is needed not just to read the floppied but to run PageMaker which won't run on modern Macs.
    Frankly, if you have a paper copy, scan it and start from that!
