Securing and protecting PDFs produced from Oracle Documaker
Hi Experts,
Is there anyway to secure and edit/ password protect PDFs produced from Oracle Documaker? This will enable us to protect editing, copying of content from the PDF.
Thanks
Yes.
See Chapter 4 pages 63 through 79.

This is 11.5 documentation; what version are you using?

Is there a way of protecting PDF documents from printing and/or copying?
Does anybody know a way of protecting PDF documents from printing and/or copying? All this within the OS possibilities? Is there a way?
know one can buy expensive programmes like from Adobe, but I use it so little that I would like a cheaper solution. Freeware would be great, shareware also.
Any suggestion grateful received.No way to do that using the OS (although the entire pdf can be encrypted, once the password is applied the document is open for copying/printing).
However, the freeware PDFLab does allow password protection, the 'owner' pw allows full access, the 'user' pw can be restricted for printing, copying, etc:

This can also be done with Adobe's Create PDF Online, but the above is free, and works well.
Hope this helps... -

Generated pdf file from oracle reports show bad characters
Hello all,
Iam fighting with a problem with generated pdf file from oracle reports which show some bad characters. I was searching for some information but it didnt help...
I have Oracle Database 11g R2 (or 10g R2) on Oracle Linux or Windows, Oracle forms and reports 6i (i know that is very old and not supported with 11gr2 but we are in this scenario).
NLS parameters are set like this
server:
NLS_CHARACTERSET EE8MSWIN1250
NLS_TERRITORY AMERICA
NLS_LANGUAGE AMERICAN
client:
NLS_CHARACTERSET EE8MSWIN1250
NLS_TERRITORY SLOVAK
NLS_LANGUAGE SLOVAKIA
When I run Oracle Reports it show perfect in display and when I try to print them, they are all good with good characters, but when I try to generate pdf file, some characters like č,š,ľ are not displaying corectly... This happen only when try to generate to pdf...
I try to work with uifont.ali on client side but without any result. Fonts for reports were installed on client and server side... Can someone help me with this problem? Thank you very much for every advice.
MartinHi Sergiusz,
Thank you for your reply. I look at what you wrote and try to make some test...
1) For first I download FontForge, which can generate type1 font from true type. So I open FontForge and open my Arial.ttf font and use "Generate Fonts" to save my Arial.ttf font to pfb and pfm (whoch are need to set in uifont.ali). I have to change encoding, because my font has 2byte encoding so I reecondode the font from ISO10646-1 to ISO8859-2 and generate to pfb.
2) Then I navigate REPORTS_PATH from regedit to my *.pfm and *.pfb files.
3) I add these lines to end of my uifont.ali
[ PDF:Embed ]
Arial = "Arial.pfm Arial.pfb"
ArialNarrow = "ArialNarrow.pfm ArialNarrow.pfb"
4) Then I generate my report but nothing change... I check "Font used" in my pdf file, but there were not my fonts embedded I guess..
I also try PDF:Subset, but it doesnt change anything... I try PDF aliasing to see if my uifont is working - this work very well, but I dont need to change font...
Any other advice? Thank you so much to everyone!

hi i can't seem to copy and paste pdf files from preview to a microsoft word document. it always comes up with nonsense characters in the word document. how do i fix this? thanks in advance
Hi,
The quickest way to do this (tested with OS 10.8.2, MS Word 2011) is in one line:
tell application "Microsoft Word" to close every document whose name begins with "book"
The reason why your script doesn't work is that you aren't specifying to Word which document you want it to close.
So, changing one line ought to do it:
close document incrementvalue -- instead of "close document"
But... when you close a document, you change the document count. Document 2 becomes document 1, document 3 becomes document 2 etc. So eventually you'd get a message saying "The object you are trying to access doesn't exist".
Because of this, if you want to do it in a repeat loop, you have to work backwards:
tell application "Microsoft Word"
set doc_count to count documents
repeat with x from doc_count to 1 by -1
if name of document x begins with "book" then close document x
end repeat
end tell
Hope this helps. -
How do I import and export PDF's from Ibooks
How do I import and export PDF files from Ibooks on the IMAC running Mavericks?
How do I sync my PDF files in IBooks to the IPAD when they were not purchased from the bookstore?
I noticed that I could email the PDF and then add it to IBOOKS on the IPAD.
Is there a 3rd party IBOOK type reader that will address this issue?
When I upgraded Mavericks it moved all of my PDF files in ITUNES application to IBOOKS and removed all reference to those
books in ITUNES. When I purchase a book from IBOOKS store on the IMAC, the books shows up in IBOOKS on the IPAD.
All of my PDF files will not sync up with the IPAD.
I do hope this is a problem that Apple will address and would like to know when the fix will be available.Hello,
Thank you. I found that option you pointed out. I can now change it from 1080i to 1080p and I can chance the resolution. However I still can't change the frame rate. It still stays at 29.97.
Could this be due to the camera? I am using a Canon VIXIA HF S100 with 30p and 24p frame rate options. I suspect that it does not really shoot at true 24p and only does 24p within 60i.
Frankly, I don't really care about getting 24p support too much but it would be very nice to have the option.
I'll keep toying with the program. Still, anymore ideas or thoughts would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you Wild Giles. -

Generating a pdf form from oracle 10g databse.
Hi,
i am looking at some procedure/a code that will enable me to fetch data from oracle tables into tabular form and print the same in the form of a pdf file and allow me to attach the same file as an auto attachment to mail it to someone who is using the application.
wat i have been trying to do is get the data from database into .txt or .xls file format and convert it into pdf file.But for obvious reasons the tabular look isnt seen in the output pdf file.
and i have no idea of auto attaching the generated pdf file as an attachment to mail it.
any help would be of great use to me .
thanks in advance!!If the database resides on a solaris environment, the operating system commands (if installed)
a2ps (ascii to postscript) and
ps2pdf (postscript to pdf) may be called to produce a pdf file out of an ascii file.
Creating the ascii file, converting it and sending it through email are different tasks
and there a few options for doing so. -
How to access a PDF file from Oracle DATABASE SERVER

Please Help!!!! It is very urgent !!!
Expecting fast response!!!!!
Byehi
Thank u for ur response.
Initially i tried to access pdf file from database server. I didn't get any solution for that. So I copied all my pdf files to Application server which is in Linux environment at "/home2/docs" directory.
I gave the following command for accessing the pdf files kept in Lnux Application Server from Oracle 10g forms in a button press trigger.
web.show_document('http://192.168.1.53:7779/home2/docs/test.pdf');
It says "page cannot be found"
So I copied one of the pdf file named "test.pdf" to "/oracle/oas10g/IasHome/forms90/java" in Linux Application Server . Then the following command
web.show_document('http://192.168.1.53:7779/forms90/java/test.pdf');
has opened the the pdf file in browser.
192.168.1.53 is my Linux Application Server IP. and 7779 is the port.
Actually we have lacs of pdf files. So i cannot keep all the pdf files in "/oracle/oas10g/IasHome/forms90/java" directory in Linux Application Server. And also all the pdf files not in the same directory , "/home2/docs" some of the pdf files r in the subdirectories of "/home2/docs/" like /home2/docs/sub1, /home2/docs/sub2, /home2/docs/sub3 etc.
Then how to configure my "/oracle/oas10g/IasHome/forms90/server/forms90.conf" file for retrieving pdf files from "/home2/docs/" and its subdirectories. Is Anything other than this, required for solving my problems.
Now My PDF files r in LINUX APPLICATION SERVER not in database server.
Please help!! It is VERY URGENT!!! -

Create and insert into table from Oracle to MS SQL server.
Hello,
Oracle Database 11g and Red hat 5
I have a very different kind of issue. I am handling the ORACLE db(remote db with all the important data). On the other side their is a MS SQL server db(local db with some testing data in it). All the users will access the ORACLE db for the actual processing but for sometime they need to apply some of their own concepts. So they will transfer the data from ORACLE to MS sql server.
I want to create a code in ORACLE db like a procedure , which will create a table in MS sql server , insert data into it,Also create some metadata table to keep some of my table's info on MS SQL serve db,If the table is present it should append the data, .... like many things ...
Overall my question is , how can i write a code to make these operation on a remote db, that to these operations are DDL and on MS SQL Server(Non-Oracle) ???
Please guide me with some ideas or solutions ...
Also provide if you have some good links to study ...
thanks in advance.I'm not sure why you never visit http://tahiti.oracle.com prior to asking any question. Is it forbidden in your locale? Are you afraid of it? Will your salary be decreased when you visit the documentation?

Enable commenting on PDF produced from RSTXPDFT4
Hi experts,
In our business , we are using program RSTXPDFT4 to convert an ABAP spool list into PDF. Now, there is a request for the ability to put comments onto the PDF file (see attached "Insert comments.jpg"). We found that we are unable to do so with our current version of Adobe Reader 9.
However, a user with Adobe Acrobat Pro will be able to save the PDF with "Reader Extended PDF -> Enable Commenting and Measuring" (see attached "Adobe Acrobat Pro.jpg"). When this is done, we can then open the PDF file using Acrobat Reader 9 and add in comments.
Here is the question - is there a way to convert a spool into PDF with the "Reader Extended PDF" properties from SAP, so that it is immediately ready for commenting?
Regards,
SuiI don't think so.
Adobe Acrobat may have to save the pdf in higher version whose specification has the said feature.
Most pdf writers create pdf with version 1.4, which is lower than latest format, but good enough.
