Sharing and displaying Excel and pdf documents in SAP BO Mobile

Hello all,
I have one quick question. Is it possible to share excel and pdf documents through SAP BO Mobile?
I tried it uploading documents to BO Launch pad and assigning them to Mobile category. I can't see them in my ipad. Is there another way to share these kind of files through SAP Mobile in mobile devices? and how?
Thanks.

No that won't do it. Because my users have their own excels which are not related to BO or BW platforms. They are entering data manually to excel spreadsheets and reporting. We just want to upload them to BO platform and let them share those files with other users.
I know I could create a webi report on top of excel, but we don't want to spend redoing the reports in excel.
Thanks though.

What do I need to do to display a MS Word, Excel or PDF document in browser

Hi, Right now I have photos loaded and displayed in my HTML document in the browser next to a report...
What do I need to do to display a MS Word, Excel or PDF document in a browser?
I use the following procedure to load the content to the region of my HTML .
This gives an EDIT link to the photo...
select
'[img src="#OWNER#.display_thumb?p_file_id=' || nvl(file_catalog_id,0) || '" /]' "File"
from "FILE_CATALOG"
where "FILE_CATALOG_ID" = :P9_FILE_CATALOG_ID
This is the procedure to load the content to the region of my HTML .
create or replace PROCEDURE "DISPLAY_THUMB" (p_photo_id in number)
as
l_mime varchar2(255);
l_length number;
l_file_name varchar2(2000);
lob_loc BLOB;
begin
select mime_type, thumbnail, photo_name, dbms_lob.getlength(thumbnail)
into l_mime, lob_loc, l_file_name, l_length
from photo_catalog where photo_catalog_id = p_photo_id;
-- Set up HTTP header
-- Use an NVL around the mime type and if it is a null, set it to
-- application/octect - which may launch a download window from windows
owa_util.mime_header(nvl(l_mime,'application/octet'), FALSE );
-- Set the size so the browser knows how much to download
htp.p('Content-length: ' || l_length);
-- The filename will be used by the browser if the users does a "Save as"
htp.p('Content-Disposition: filename="' || l_file_name || '"');
-- Close the headers
owa_util.http_header_close;
-- Download the BLOB
wpg_docload.download_file( Lob_loc );
end;

Does anyone know how to copy and paste from a pdf document?

I am trying to copy and paste from a pdf document to put on facebook, but I cannot highlight the text I want to copy.
Any suggestions???

It is a generated pdf doc. I can highlight the text, but as soon as I let go of the mouse button, the highlighting disappears. If I right-click the mouse, there is no copy/past option. Only a select, zoom and marque tool option.

You need to use a PDF reader that supports multimedia. Adobe Reader 10.3 does not. Adobe has not stated whether it will support multimedia in the future.
In the meantime, you could buy an application that does like PDF Expert. Read about it here:

Generate and display excel file

Hi guys,
Is there a way to generate and display excel file in sapgui without the need of downloading the excel file to local directory first?
I found the following 2 ways of doing it, but both require me to download the generated xls file to local directory:
#1 way:
1. Generate the xls file using GUI_DOWNLOAD with the filename = 'c:\test.xls'.
2. Call fm SAP_STARTS_EXCEL and pass in the parameter i_filename = 'c:\test.xls'
#2 way:
1. Generate the xls file using GUI_DOWNLOAD with the filename = 'c:\test.xls'.
2. Upload it back using the below so that i can get it in xstring format.
CALL FUNCTION 'GUI_UPLOAD'
     exporting
       filetype = 'BIN'
       filename = 'C:\test.xls'
     tables
       data_tab = itab.
3. Then pass it to the cl_gui_html_viewer to display it.
call method html_control->load_data
    exporting
      url          = 'test.xls'
      type         = 'application'
      subtype      = 'vnd.ms-excel'
    importing
      assigned_url = l_url
    changing
      data_table   = l_pdf_data
    exceptions
      others = 1.
I prefer the #2 way as my program will get wrapped thru ITS server, and it seems the #1 way will not work. So is there any way i can get the excel file to be generated in xstring format so that i can pass to cl_gui_html_viewer straight away to display without having to save to local directory first?
Any other suggestion apart from the above 2 ways are welcome as well.
Thanks guys.

Is it possible to display a native pdf document in AIR?

I'm not that familiar with AIR but i was wondering if it's possible to display a native pdf document in AIR. If so are any add-on's required or does AIR have that capability built in. Essentially I would be trying to create a pdf viewer in that allows users to markup documents and save them to the server for others to view. I'm just in the discovery phase of this project, so any guidance would be great.
Thanks!

Call and display Xcelsius SWF file from an SAP Transaction

Hello Experts ,
Could you please suggest if it is possible to Call and display Xcelsius SWF file
from an SAP Transaction and if Yes how can this be achieved.
Regards ,
Jerin.

Jerin,
It is possible to embed a Xcelsius model into an SAP WebTemplate (Anil promised to write a blog about this very soon). After that you can include the WebTemplate in the GUI menu, Role menu or Portal.

Report to file and email (excel or pdf)

Hi!
I have a report where I list financial data about a company. The report is only one pivot table! There is a dashboard prompt, where you can choose the company you want to see.
I need to save the report in excel or pdf for ALL the listed companies. I need to email some of them.
How can I do that? I looked around the Delivers and the Publisher, but I wasn't successful.
Thanks
Andras Szenci

user10912001, if you still have no answer on your question...
Placing a report and a prompt to a dashboard (as you described you have done it), you can clearly see a button in left-down field of a dashboard
!http://lh6.ggpht.com/_7E85bAvCFxg/Sj8oKflJ8WI/AAAAAAAAAHE/gvH2bpnoJWY/2009-06-22_104330.png!
where you have a .pdf and .html format to print.
Once you choose "Edit dashboard" in the list after clicking the button "Page option" (up-right side in the dashboards) you then click on the "Properties" button of the report (you want to have an option "Download to Excel") and choose "Report Links..." (where you checked an option "Download". Here you are - you have a link (bottom ao your report) where you have option to get the output in Excel format.

Printing current time and date on a pdf document

I wish for a pdf document to print the current time and date in the same place at the foot of each page, to the following format:
Aug 04 2009, 5:11 pm.
How do I do this please? Annoyingly I have managed it in the past, but when I open up my old documents and paste the relevant field into my new document, it either prints the old date/time or else prints the present date/time, but then doesn't refresh the next time I try to print - ie it stays at one date/time.
I'd like to start again from scratch so that I have a better idea of how it works!!
Regards
Tony

Eureka!
I now have the answer, and hopefully this will help anybody else with a similar problem.
In Acrobat:
Create a text field and place it in the chosen place on the pdf form. Label it "datebox" in the General tab of Text Field Properties, and apply your character styles in the Appearance tab.
Under the "Advanced" menu, go to "Document Processing" and then "Set Document Actions"
Click on "Document Will Print" and then hit the "Edit" button. In the "JavaScript Editor" paste the following:
var myfield=getField("datebox");
var date=new Date();
date=util.printd("mmm dd yyyy, h:MM tt", date);
myfield.value=date;
Hit OK.
You have now given the instruction that whenever you print, the field named "datebox" will print the current time and date in the following format:
Aug 05 2009, 9.37 am

Tony

Activate OCR and Enable Comment in PDF document On an Unix platform

Hi every Body,
I have an amount of PDF document stored on an unix server, and i want to anable "Add comment" feature for all of those documents, so that i can
open every document by Adobe Reader and add comments; sticky, underline....etc. This feature is Avalabe in Acrobat Reader Pro 9 i test it
it work fine, but i need to do same thing in commande line, i mean install a library or something else and i can do this operation by taping a command on shell terminal.
The same problème with te OCR feature.
Thanks for you help

Hi,
Unless you use Acrobat 8 Pro's Formatted Text & Graphics" or Acrobat 9 Pro's ClearScan you will find that there is no
practicable means of editing the OCR "hidden text" in a PDF.
The TouchUp text tool (Advanced Editing toolbar) is reliant upon the selected text having an available system font to use during touchup. However, both Searchable Image and Searchable Image (Exact) OCR output is of text rendering mode 3 (invisible text) that is provided from within Acrobat and not any installed system or other application installed font.
With Searchable Image (Exact) you have the untouched image augmented by the invisible text which is provided as a user aid for search or find with Adobe Reader or Acrobat. The invisible text is not intended to support word processor like editing.
To your questions:
#1. There is no practicable way to edit invisible text (text rendering mode 3) with Acrobat (any past or current release).
#2. None.
#3. A good question. Perhaps a specialty program. Keep in mind, many products provide a promise but those those that actually deliver tend to be expensive.
Something to play with. Using Acrobat 9 Pro or Pro Extended, try the Preflight Fixup to embed hidden text.
Then try using the TouchUp Text tool. You may also want to see if you can change the font type of this newly embedded font.
(use copies of the "real" files - just in case <g>).
Be well...

Edit pictures and graphics in a pdf document

I have many pdf documents that need new and updated logos (jpg images). How do I delete the old logos and replace them with the new one? I have Office 2010 and Acrob V10.1.4 but cannot find how to edit pictures.

If you only have a few to change, use the information on Deepak's link. It tells you how to use the Edit Object tool.
If you need to change a lot of them, you should really work on the original files - PDFs are not designed to be edited very easily. It's a simpler process in Acrobat XI but you still need to change each image by hand, one at a time.
Bill suggests exporting to Word (File > Save As > Microsoft Word) - that will give you editable content but will remove anything interactive about the PDF file and tends to mess about with formatting. It's very much a last resort option.

What can I do to edit and add or delete PDF document

I do not use many functions of acrobat PDF except converting word document into PDF or vice versa. Recently, I have a document in PDF format with pages of writing. What do I if I want to edit the document in PDF format, and to add or to delete certain pages to the PDF document? Currently, I do not have additional acrobat PDF software but the free downloaded Acrobat 8.0. I also have Mac OS 10.5.6. Can the new Mac OS do more without additional acrobat software?
Thank you very much for your advice.
Robert
