Search Annotation by its Name Using Javascript

Hi
my requirement is to find the annotation using its Annotation name using Javascript
i.e by entering the Annotation name in my user interface created by javascript it should set focus to that particular annotation

I don't think it's possible to do that exactly. You can search for the annotation, but you can't select it. However, you can switch the document to the page where the annotation is located.

Indesign grep search on page by page using javascript

Hi,
Is it possible to grep search a word page by page instead of searching in whole document..
If it is possible, please suggest how to do this.
Thanks,
Gopal

Hi Gopal,
You can't search directly in page. Instead you can search by pages[n].textFrames[x].texts[0].findGrep().

How to search for a certain cross reference using its name in FM 11?

How to search for a certain cross reference using its name in FM 11?

Well, thank you. I am only using Find dialog box. By "name", I'd like to give an example. The background is FM 11 structured. I have an element "xref" which is used to make cross reference. Now In Chapter 1, there is a sentence like "This is an ODU for ...". I made a cross ref of the word "ODU" to its full name "outdoor unit" in Chapter 2 (in the same book). After this, the word "ODU" in the sentence in Chapter 1 will no longer be a plain text. So I no longer can use the find dialog box to search for "ODU" because it is already an xref rather than text. I am not if it's clear.

Using Javascript to rasterize a layer and maintain its position with other layers.

Trying to use javascript to rasterize just the contents of a certain layer by its name.
It needs to maintain its position.
I've sort of cobbled a script, but it keeps moving the rastered art to the top layer.
Ex, top down i have Layer 4, RasterizeMe, Layer 2, Layer 1.
The rastered contents end up on Layer 4
Any help would be apprecieated, or if theres a better method of doing this.
// Rasterize Layer by name
    if ( app.documents.length > 0 ) {
        doc = app.activeDocument;
        if(!doc.saved){
            Window.alert("This script needs to modify your document. Please save it before running this script.");
        }else{
            createRasterLayer(doc);
    }else{
        Window.alert("You must open at least one document.");
function createRasterLayer(doc){
    var totalLayers = doc.layers.length; //get the total number of layers in the active document
    for ( var i = 0 ; i < totalLayers ; i++){ //looping through layers
        var currentLayer = doc.layers[i];
        var tempItem;
        if(currentLayer.visible == false) continue;   //We don't want to deal with hidden layers
        currentLayer.locked = false;                       //Unlock the layer if needed
        var layerName = new String( currentLayer.name );
        if ( layerName.indexOf("RasterizeMe") == 0 ) {
            currentLayer.hasSelectedArtwork = true;   //Select ALL in the layer
            if(doc.visibleBounds[2] == 0) continue;   // ignore empty layers
            var newoptions = new RasterizeOptions;
            newoptions.resolution = 350;
            if ( doc.selection.length > 0 ) {
                newGroup = app.activeDocument.groupItems.add();
                for ( z = 0; z < doc.selection.length; z++ ) {
                    doc.selection[z].move( newGroup, ElementPlacement.INSIDE);
                doc.rasterize (newGroup, newGroup.visibleBounds, newoptions);

you're adding the group to the document, it will be the top most object on the top most layer
newGroup = app.activeDocument.groupItems.add();
use this to add the group to the current layer
newGroup = currentLayer.groupItems.add();
or if theres a better method of doing this.
I would
- loop through all layers,
- hide them all, except the one you want to rasterize,
- Rasterize the document
- unhide layers

How do I use search/find to search for a folder name

I can successfully use Spotlight and Search in Finder and Mail to find files and emails based on their titles and contents, but how to I use the search functions to find a FOLDER by its name, that I have somehere in my nests of folders - so I can then look inside that folder for what I am looking for.
The search results never seem to show up any folder names?

I do have several levels of nested email folders and several hundred folders created over the years. So I was hoping to be able to search for a folder's name, and be taken to it to see it and all of its contents.
The best I seem to be able to do is search for a word that I hope I remember is in one of the emails in that folder, and then find that email in the search results list - but that list still doesn't tell me where the folder in the nested heirarchy that is my mailbox

Set annotation flags for link annotations using JavaScript

The JavaScript for Acrobat API Reference doesn't list Link as an annotation type[1]even if it's a subtype in the PDF specification (8.4.5 Annotation Types).
I know how to get the link objects using JavaScript, but they don't have a print property, because it belongs to its mother annotation object.
Example:
I have a scanned PDF, OCRed, with two links. Acrobat's content panels shows an annotation object with two links.
>this.syncAnnotScan();
>var annots = this.getAnnots();
returns
>null
Any idea how to set the annotation flag to Print for a link annotation using JavaScript? (flag 3 aka Print is required for PDF/A)

Hi,
Thanks for replying. But this example sets falshvars through the UI, and as I have mentioned I want this done from javascript in the document - I dont have the value for some of the flashvars during embedding.
(Using a EI call is my last resort, as I am not expected to make any modification to the SWF file - the SWF file, hitherto, was being hosted in a HTML where it was being passed flashvar params)

Can we access the session scoped variable by simply using its name

The Java EE 6 Tutorial contains a "Duke's Bookstore Case Study Example”. I could not understand following statements of this case study:
*bookdetails.xhtml*
{code}
<h:outputText value="#{selected.title}"/>
{code}
*BookstoreBean.java*
{code}
public String details() {
context()
.getExternalContext()
.getSessionMap()
.put(
"selected",
getFeatured());
return ("bookdetails");
{code}
I want to know can we access the session scoped variable in bookdetails.xhtml by simply using its name as done above?

It is basic Expression Language (EL) functionality, it isn't even specific to JSF. And it isn't specific to the session scope either, you can put beans in any scope (page, request, session, application, flash, conversation, whatever custom scope you create) and reference it using EL by only its name. The thing that you have to take care of is that the bean lives in SOME scope, which can be achieved using JSF specific annotations or configuration files, through CDI or by manually putting the bean in a specific scope through Java code. It's flexible, which is the nature of the Java platform.

Help needed. I have a 3TB external hard drive partitioned into 1TB's. I used one partition as backup for the main computer hard drive. But now it is greyed out as shown in the disk utility and its name changed, i dont know how that happened, i tried verifying and repairing it but had no luck. I also tried mounting and unmounting it but still no solution. Anyone to help please?

Looks bad. I would strongly advise backing up the stuff on the other two partitions as soon as possible in case the rest of the drive goes wrong.
Beyond that, Disk Utility has limited abilities to repair disks, DiskWarrior uses a different approach and might, emphasis might be more successful. It has certainly done the job for me in the past when Disk Utility could not.

Save each page of a multi-page document as a separate file using spawned file names with javascript

Hello
We are currently changing our hard-copy personnel files and converting them to pdf files. We have scanned the entire file into one multi-page document.
I am wanting to save each page (or groups of pages) as separate files.
In order to facilitate this, I have duplicated field names--such as FirstName, LastName, EmpNo on each page. This information should be static for the entire file.
However--I also need information that will change for each individual "page" or document--such as TypeOfDoc, Date, etc. I have used the Spawn fields using the overlay method on each of the pages in the document. Then I went in and filled in the information for each page of the document--such as TypeOfDoc, DateOfDoc.
Now I want to save each page of the document as a separate file using the field names as the file name.
I first created an action that would split all the pages into separate files and save them into a folder.
Then I want to save each file as a specific file name based on the information in the fields.
My problem is obtaining the name of the spawned field name. The rest of the field names I am not having a problem with.
This is what I have so far to name the file.
// Get the field value
var oPage = this.pageNum;
var fn = getField("P" + oPage + ".TEMPLATE.DateOfDoc").valueAsString + getField("FirstName").valueAsString + "-" + getField("LastName").valueAsString;
// Specify the folder
var fldr = "/n/Personnel/ScannedDocuments/NAMEDPAAS/";
// Determine the full path
var fp = fldr + fn +".pdf";
// Save the file
myTrustedSpecialTaskFunc(this, fp);
This code is also accompanied with folder level scripts.
My problem is obtaining the name of the spawned fields using javascript. Each document has several pages--so I would like to obtain the field name through script.
I receive the following error.
TypeError: getField("P" + oPage + ".TEMPLATE.DATE") is null
I think this is due to the fact that I have extracted all the pages as individual files.
If I were to do the above, but not extract the pages first--I do not know how to just save one page at a time.
Please help. This is a massive project, and if we have to save each file individually, it will take a lot of time.
I am a beginner, so any assistance is appreciated.
Thank you

I am not understanding exactly where to put the curly brackets. I have tried two different ways, and still get the same error.
This is one way
var oPage = this.pageNum;
// Specify the folder
var fldr = "/n/Personnel/ScannedDocuments/NAMEDPAAS/";
// Determine the full path
var fp = fldr + fn +".pdf";
for (var i = 0; i < this.numPages; i++)
var fn = getField("P" + oPage + ".template.DateOfDoc").valueAsString + getField("FirstName").valueAsString + "-" + getField("LastName").valueAsString;
{this.extractPages({
nStart: i,
cPath : fldr + fn + ".pdf"
The other is this
var oPage = this.pageNum;
// Specify the folder
var fldr = "/n/Personnel/ScannedDocuments/NAMEDPAAS/";
// Determine the full path
var fp = fldr + fn +".pdf";
for (var i = 0; i < this.numPages; i++)
var fn = getField("P" + oPage + ".template.DateOfDoc").valueAsString + getField("FirstName").valueAsString + "-" + getField("LastName").valueAsString;
this.extractPages({
nStart: i,
cPath : fldr + fn + ".pdf"
Thank you for your help.

Using JavaScript to search for dates in PDF

Hello,
I have a question about using JavaScript in Adobe Acrobat X Pro.
I want a script that automatically search dates which fall within one week of the date of today.
If this is true then the pdf file have to be deleted. If the date is later then one week of the date of today then the pdf file must be moved to a different folder.
I hope anyone can help me with a solution.
With regards,
Robert

Searching is the easy part. The problem is that a script can't delete a
file, nor can it move a file to another problem.

Using JavaScript to Determine a Form's Folder Name

We have an awful lot of forms, and in many cases, our custom JavaScript applies to all forms in a given folder. We would like to determine the form's folder name so that we don't have to list each and every form in a giant "IF" statement.
Has anyone figured out how to determine a form's folder using JavaScript?
Thanks!
- Jake

I think the only solution to the "refresh" issue would be to somehow query the hsp_object table and grab the parent_id (which for a form is the folder ID). If anyone figures out how to query the application repository from JavaScript,that would be very, very cool.
As the database is server side and javascript is client side you would have to use something like an ajax call that passes the form id into an jsp script, the jsp script would query the repository and return the value to javascript.
Cheers

but it is not working
please help me

Hi,
According to your post, my understanding is that you wanted to set "peoples or groups" field with current user "login name" in SharePoint list form using JavaScript.
To set "peoples or groups" field with current user "login name”, you can use the below code:
<script src="http://ajax.aspnetcdn.com/ajax/jquery/jquery-1.9.0.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript">
function SetPickerValue(pickerid, key, dispval) {
var xml = '<Entities Append="False" Error="" Separator=";" MaxHeight="3">';
xml = xml + PreparePickerEntityXml(key, dispval);
xml = xml + '</Entities>';
EntityEditorCallback(xml, pickerid, true);
function PreparePickerEntityXml(key, dispval) {
return '<Entity Key="' + key + '" DisplayText="' + dispval + '" IsResolved="True" Description="' + key + '"><MultipleMatches /></Entity>';
function GetCurrentUserAndInsertIntoUserField() {
var context = new SP.ClientContext.get_current();
var web = context.get_web();
this._currentUser = web.get_currentUser();
context.load(this._currentUser);
context.executeQueryAsync(Function.createDelegate(this, this.onSuccess),
Function.createDelegate(this, this.onFailure));
function onSuccess(sender, args) {
SetPickerValue('ctl00_m_g_99f3303a_dffa_4436_8bfa_3511d9ffddc0_ctl00_ctl05_ctl01_ctl00_ctl00_ctl04_ctl00_ctl00_UserField', this._currentUser.get_loginName(),
this._currentUser.get_title());
function onFaiure(sender, args) {
alert(args.get_message() + ' ' + args.get_stackTrace());
ExecuteOrDelayUntilScriptLoaded(GetCurrentUserAndInsertIntoUserField, "sp.js");
</script>

Document search by file name using TREX

Hello,
We have implemented searching of documents using TREX. At the moment TREX finds all documents where search term is included BOTH in the file name (title) AND the content of the document. We need to limit the search results only to the documents where the search term is a part of the file name/title and NOT the content.
I know that searching for the term in the title and content is a standard functionality. Is there any way to limit searching for documents only to the title? Are there any parameters that I could place in the KM Document iView in the property 'query' that will limit searching to the file name?
We use SAP NW 7.0 SP18.
Best regards,
Beata

Hi Bobu,
I have followed the suggested solution with the predifined properties - "cm_displayname(/default)" - in a new Search option set and a new Search Component set containing only two aliases: search_predefined_props and standard_search, but it seems that searching is using the standard_search alias anyway. If I remove it from the search component, I do not have a full-search field for entering the value.
