Selectively exporting sheets in pdf format

I have a Numbers '09 file with 12 sheets in it. I would like to share just 8 of these sheets by exporting them in pdf format. How can I selectively choose the 8 different sheets ? I currently find that the export command automatically converts all 12 of the sheets into a single pdf file.

Arul,
It wouldn't be too difficult to Print or Export the entire document to PDF and then open it in Preview and delete the four sheets you don't want, unless I'm missing something. Preview is powerful and easy to use.

IllegalArgumentException error while exporting report in PDF format

Hi all,
we are using Crystal Report 2008, Java 1.5.22 and JRC 11.8.4.1094 to export reports in pdf format within java.
It is working fine for all reports except for a specific report where it gives IllegalArgumentException while exporting the PDF.
Below the error occurred:

Hello Andrea.
I searched through the SAP Notes for the error that you are encountering. There is an SAP Note that exists titled the following:
1332907 - Report being exported to PDF format using the Crystal Reports for Eclipse 1.x runtime, errors with the exception: PdfExporter: caught Exception in PDFFormatter.finalizeFormatJob
Since you may not have access to the SAP Notes, I will extract the details that are mentioned in the note here:
=============================================
Symptom
Attempting to export a report to Adobe PDF format using the Crystal Reports for Eclipse 1.x runtime results in an exception.
The exception indicates "PdfExporter: caught Exception in PDFFormatter.finalizeFormatJob"
Environment
Windows 2003
Apache Tomcat 5.0
Crystal Reports for Eclipse version 1.x
Reproducing the Issue
Using the Crystal Reports for Eclipse runtime version 1.x attempt to export a report to PDF format that has the "Repeat Group Header on Each Page" option enabled.
Note: This does not occur if this option is enabled in a subreport.
Cause
When the "Repeat Group Header on Each Page" is enabled for a group in a main report the Crystal Reports for Eclipse 1.x runtime is unable to correclty format the PDF document which results in an exception.
Resolution
Updating the application to use Crystal Reports for Eclipse version 2.x runtime will resolve the issue.
The most recent updates to the Crystal Reports for Eclipse runtime can be freely downloaded from the SAP SDN Website.
http://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/boc/crystalreports-java
=============================================
Since you are on JRC 11.8.4.1094 which is Crystal Reports for Eclipse 1.x, this may be the cause of your problem.
I hope that this helps.
Regards.

"Memory full." error while exporting report to PDF format - CR2008SP2

 
Hello, 
 
I am developing a C#.NET application that uses the CR2008 SP2 .NET libraries. This application performs some database updates and uses CR2008 SP2 to run 7 different reports and export the results to PDF files. This application is a console application that only uses Crystal to export the rendered reports - it does not use previews or printing. 
 
The specific pattern of this application is as follows: 
 
- perform some database updates 
- render report #1 and export it as a PDF file 
- perform some database updates 
- render report #2 and export it as a PDF file 
... pattern repeats to report #7 ... 
 
This application works fine as long as I run only one instance of it at a time. The problem occurs when I try to run multiple instances of this application at the same time. When I run multiple instances of this application at the same time (against totally different databases) each instance will start up happily and begin running through the process described above. After a few moments one or more instances will fail during the report export. The specific error is as follows: 
 
"Memory full. Failed to export the report. Not enough memory for operation." 
 
The error always comes from the call to: 
 
CrystalDecisions.CrystalReports.Engine.ReportDocument.ExportToDisk(Format, FileName) 
 
I have watched the memory consumption of these instances of my application while they are running. They never seem to exceed approximately 52MB each. At this time task manager reports over 1GB of physical memory free. These numbers lead me to believe that memory is not actually "full". 
 
Here are some specifics about the environment: 
 
Dell Vostro 1720 / P8600 / 4GB 
Windows 7 Ultimate x64 
SQL Server 2008 SP1 x64 
Crystal Reports 2008 SP2 
 
Specifics about the C# application: 
 
IDE: Visual Studio 2008 SP1 
Type: Console Application 
Target platform: x86 
.NET Framework: 3.5 SP1 
Crystal References: 
- CrystalDecisions.CrystalReports.Engine (v12.0.2000.0) 
- CrystalDecisions.Shared (v12.0.2000.0) 
 
Specifics about the report templates: 
 
The report templates are RPT files saved from CR2008 SP2. They are relatively simple. A few of them (maybe 3) contain a single subreport. 
 
Specifics about the database: 
 
Each database is approximately 1GB in size. The database contains many tables but the reports only access a handful of tables. Each table that the reports access have maybe a few hundred rows tops. Most have less than 100. Likewise, when the reports perform their selections the resulting rowset for the reports is anywhere from about 20 records to a few hundred records tops. 
 
A few items to note: 
 
- Multiple instances of my application need to be able to run on a single machine at the same time. It is a specific design requirement. 
- My application works fine as long as I run only one instance of it at a time. 
- My application works fine when I run multiple instances if I comment out the Crystal part of it. 
- My application works fine when I run multiple instances if I change the export format from PDF to HTML32 or HTML40 (have not tried any others) 
- The machine has over 1GB of physical memory free when this error occurs. 
- I have taken steps to ensure that I am properly disposing of my CrystalDecisions.CrystalReports.Engine.ReportDocument instance just after each export is complete. I have tried to use the "using" keyword, as well as explicitly setting the instance to null and calling the .NET framework garbage collector. This did not seem to help. 
 
Any assistance with this issue would be greatly appreciated. 
 
Steve

Jonathan & Ludek, 
 
Thanks for the timely response and good suggestions guys! 
 
I have performed a few more tests today in order to help answer some of your questions. 
 
Below are my responses. Some of them are answers to questions and some of them are observations based on tests I have performed today. 
 
- The database system is SQL Server 2008 SP1 Developer Edition x64. 
 
- The C# application connects to the database using the native .NET SQL client (System.Data.Sql). 
 
- During runtime I connect the report to the database by looping through the ReportDocument.Database.Tables collection. For each Table found I create a CrystalDecisions.Shared.TableLogOnInfo instance, fill in the table name, server name, database name, user ID, and password, and use Table.ApplyLogOnInfo() to apply it. I do the same thing for the subreports collection if there are any. Like I said, about half of the reports contain a single subreport. 
 
- The report templates are currently set to use the "SQLOLEDB" Provider. The Database Type is set to "OLE DB (ADO)". I am not entirely sure what you mean by trying a different database driver. I assume you mean to change the provider? If so, given the fact that we are using SQL Server 2008, what would I change it to? 
 
- If I do not perform the database updates during application runtime (instead, perform them ahead of time and then allow the application to only render the reports) then I still have the same problem. Nothing changes. 
 
- I installed the Fix Pack 2.5, rebooted, and tried again. Same problem. 
 
- I do not beleive that I am using XML transforms. How would I know? 
 
- Regarding fragmented memory: It is hard for me to believe that, given the amount of memory free on the machine once all processes are up and running (1GB+), and the size of the processes (~50MB), that a contiguous block could not be found. Maybe there is some Crystal process that is attempting to balloon out of control, but as far as I can tell my application is not getting very big. I will not rule this out of course because I don't know for sure. 
 
- Regarding killing the process once a report is rendered: The problem with this is that the application needs to perform these 7 groups of updates and render these 7 reports in a specific sequence all as part of one complete "pass". Also, this application needs to be able to be able to handle a scneario where one or more instance of the application is started on a single machine at roughly the same time (pointed at different databases). The application actually does work fine in this regard (staying well within the capabilities of my 4GB laptop even when 8 of them are running) except that I always get the same error when I choose PDF as my export format. 
 
- I ran a test today where I changed the export format to HTML40 and started 8 instances of the application at the same time, each working from a different copy of the database. The instances ran a little slow but did complete in good time with no errors. Please note that changing the export format to PDF will cause the application to fail with the "memory full" error if even only 2 instances are running at the same time. The only way I can successfully complete a run with the export format set to PDF is to run only 1 instance at a time. I can run it over and over all day long and it will not fail, as long as only 1 instance is running at a given time. As of yesterday I had only proven that the application would complete when using the HTML40 export format when 2 or 4 instances are running, but today I doubled it again (to 8) and still no failure while using HTML40. This is possibly the most interesting fact about this problem, and is another reason why I am skeptical that memory fragmentation is the culprit. 
 
We would like to solve this problem because we would like to continue to target the PDF format. It is the standard report export format for our applications. If we cannot solve this problem we may call a meeting and decide whether to proceed with the HTML40 export format, or possibly dump Crystal from this project altogether. 
 
Thanks again for your interest in our problem and your timely and helpful responses. I'm really not sure where to go next ... maybe change the database provider in the templates? I will need some specific advice in this area because I'm not sure what to do. Any more ideas you guys have will be greatly appreciated on this end! 
 
Steve

DV (MPEG2)-Trim to selection - Export - MPEG4=Original DV format/quality?

I have imported DV Video into iMovie 08 then opened the files in Quicktime and 'Trimmed them to selection' and want to save the trimmed selections in the original DV format (MPEG2) so instead of saving them as a self contained movie in QT I have gone to 'File' drop down menu and selected 'Export' to find that you have a choice of everything including 'DV Streaming' which seems to reduce the file size dramatically, and MPEG 4 basic and MPEG 4 improved....whatever the difference is I don't know...
Anyway, basically I just want to be able to chop pieces out of my original DV (MPEG2) footage and save them in the same format without any loss of quality. Should I select MPEG4 Improved? Is that the equivalent of MPEG2 the same as my original DV Video tapes or is some compression taking place?
I would appreciate it if someone out there knows what this is all about... Thanks Kevin

Hi Malcolm
Thanks for getting back to me so quickly and I confirmed that you are correct because the file size is the same but I was confused because it changes the .dv to a .mov QT file so I was under the impression that it was no longer in the original format and had been compressed.
What actually happens for it to change from .dv to .mov and is it different in any way?
Thanks
Kevin

Problems with exporting sheet to pdf

I want to make my data available on the web, so it's important that Adobe Reader and Reader plugin be able to open my pdf document. Preview has no problem with the the document. Adobe Reader can't seem to deal with it. The document is probably 4 standard pages wide and pretty long. It opens in Reader as an all white document. Interestingly, the preview of the pdf document is a long thin vertical box.
I also tried to upload the document to iwork.com. The document appears a bit blurry online, but you can see it. If you download the document, you still can't open it in Adobe.
Any idea?

I created a large table and saved with the "include Preview" active.
In the document itself I got the file:
Western 3:Important:ƒ banque:Chèques YK09.numbers:QuickLook:Preview.pdf
As I wrote, in this one, the table _is not cutted in pages_ as it is in the ones generated by Print to PDF or Export to PDF.
It's the monolytic one used by Spotlight.
My table contains 1800 rows so the subset syndrom doesn't strike.
So I can't guarantee that it's a deliberate feature or the result of a memory shortcut as written by BadUnit.
But now I'm sure that the PDF posted by the OP is not the one which we are supposed to use.
Grabbing the embedded PDF is not a good idea.
The thumbnails of the PDF printed from my test document:
The Thumbnails of the embedded Preview.pdf
The thumbnails of the OP's PDF
Is it clear now ?

Error in exporting from Interactive Report to PDF format

Hello,
i am using APEX and from an Interactive Report i am trying to export using Download | PDF format. The table and corresponding report has only text fields. Database character set is UTF-8. Up to now i haven't been able to get a PDF file that can be open from Adobe Acrobat Reader. Every file fails opening with message like "Adobe Reader could not open filename.pdf, because it is either not a supported file type or because the file has been damaged (for example, it was sent as an email attachment and wasn't correctly decoded). This happens for every report i have tried up to now. If i export report in CSV format all are ok.
Is there a known bug with PDF download of APEX?
TIA

See this link: http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/database/application_express/html/configure_printing.html
FOP & Cocoon are free (just need to install the software and configure) Bi Publisher I believe works only for Standard Reports and no Interactive reports at this time.. If you have the $$ BI Publisher is worth the investment!!
Also, it is rumored that APEX 4.0 will have the PDF generation built in as apposed to the current model where you need to bolt something on..
Thank you,

Send a single page in PDF format

I have numbers on my Mac. I can single out a page to send to email as a pdf. I am not finding that option on my iPad. It wants to send the entire spreadsheet which contains information that I don't want to share. I have created a spreadsheet that has my project estimates, descriptions, proposals, job cost breakdowns and invoices. These are all on separate sheets. How can I send just the invoice or any other single sheet in PDF format on iOS Numbers?

As far as I know there is no direct way to do this.
However, if you download goodnotes, you can export your PDF to that app, delete any unwanted material, then send.

Hyperion IR 9.3.1 - Issue in printing the report after exporting it to pdf

Hi All,
I am facing a problem in printing the report after exporting it to pdf format using Hyperion Interactive Reporting 9.3.1. I have set page size of report section to 11X17 inch landscape. Now I am exporting this report section to pdf. Report gets exported to pdf with size 11X17 inch landsacpe. But when I am trying to print this pdf it is shrinking the documnet size to A4 size paper and printing it rather it should print it on 11X17 inch paper size. Please suggest if there is fix available for this issue.
Thanks
Ujjawal

"File > Print Setup > Paper > Size" on PDF.
I think this issue is only to do with the printer and not IR.
I think the question now is "Can your printer print 11X17 pages or not".

Exporting Report to PDF in Landscape

Hello All,
After my Hyperion report finished, I exported the result into PDF. Due to having too many rows, HTML and Excel are not viable options. After the export finished writing to a PDF file, I checked the report and realized that unless I find a way to save the result in a Landscape mode, each page of the report will be broken into two pages. Does anyone know how to export reports in PDF format in a Landscape mode?
Thank you,
Seyed

Hello Ameuras,
Thank you for your help. I was able to use the information in your response and then save the PDF report in a Landscape format. However, this still prints each row on two pages. Next, I will try your other suggestion to see if using 'Scale To Fit' would solve this problem.
Thanks again,
Seyed

Problem with diacritics when export in Acrobat(PDF)

Hello,
I use reporting service from Sql Server 2008 R2 and I have a problem when I export in Acrobat(PDF) format. All the 'ș' and 'ț' are after export in pdf just a square.
Can you please help me. Thanks.

Hi Alin-g,
SQL Server 2008 R2 Reporting Services supports Adobe Acrobat 6 or later. So, please make sure your current Acrobat version meets the requirement.
Besides, the font in the PDF format may be different with that in the HTML rendering extension because GDI font substitution in those formats behaves differently. If there is a font missing on the client, you might see characters replaced with boxes (□).
For more information, please see:

Best screen size for exporting slideshow as pdf

Help please,I create slide shows for clients and export them in pdf format that are shown to numerours people but who are viewing the slide shows on different size displays ,what are the best settings both in silde show mode and creating and exporting as a PDF( height and width) so the images in the slide show will best and be maximized on all screens ?,size of the exported PDF is not a issue.
Any help is welcomed,Thanks
PS will there be any viewing difference ,if a slideshow created on a pc in Lightroom and shown on a Mac?

Having just tried to do the same thing, IMHO the Adobe PDF engine does not do the best job of resizing images. I exported at 1200x1600 and on my 1280x1024 screen there were noticeable jaggies on the text. The image itself was less noticeably degraded, but it was. For slide shows I use another product that does a much better job here, but you may not want to add another learning curve to your life. I think you should go to the PDF forum and ask around for a solution.
I can't speak to Mac/Pc issues.

Automator Workflow to export Numbers documents in PDF format

Does anyone know of any automator workflow to export Numbers documents in PDF format? I tried this program: Convert to PDF 1.2
http://www.apple.com/downloads/macosx/automator/converttopdf_mauriziominelli.htm l
But it gives an error.

Reading carefully is often useful.
The description of the tool which you tried clearly states :
*About Convert to PDF*
*_Convert all of your text files to PDF_. This action uses the underlying cups printing system ability to convert files, it’s a simple front end to the command line tool cupsfilter.*
As far as I know, but maybe you don't, *_a Numbers document isn't a text file._*
I already posted a script exporting Numbers documents as PDF.
Here is an enhanced version which apply only to Numbers '09 (or maybe higher) :
--[SCRIPT save2Numbers&PDF.app]
Enregistrer le script en tant que Script : save2Numbers&PDF.scpt
déplacer le fichier créé dans le dossier
<VolumeDeDémarrage>:Users:<votreCompte>:Library:Scripts:Applications:Numbers:
Il vous faudra peut-être créer le dossier Numbers et peut-être même le dossier Applications.
aller au menu Scripts , choisir Numbers puis choisir save2Numbers&PDF
Le script enregistre le document au format natif de Numbers
et l'enregistre dans un fichier PDF.
S'il existe déjà un PDF homonyme, il est renommé en lui ajoutant une chaîne
construite sur sa date de modification.
--=====
L'aide du Finder explique:
L'Utilitaire AppleScript permet d'activer le Menu des scripts :
Ouvrez l'Utilitaire AppleScript situé dans le dossier Applications/AppleScript.
Cochez la case "Afficher le menu des scripts dans la barre de menus".
+++++++
Save the script
as a Script: save2Numbers&PDF.scpt
Move the newly created file into the folder:
<startup Volume>:Users:<yourAccount>:Library:Scripts:Applications:Numbers:
Maybe you would have to create the folder Numbers and even the folder Applications by yourself.
go to the Scripts Menu, choose Numbers, then choose save2Numbers&PDF
The script saves the document in the native Numbers format and saves it in a .pdf file
If such a .pdf already exists, it is renamed with a stamp matching its modification date.
--=====
The Finder's Help explains:
To make the Script menu appear:
Open the AppleScript utility located in Applications/AppleScript.
Select the "Show Script Menu in menu bar" checkbox
