Spaces in afp links

Using an X-Serve RAID and X Server (with 10.3.9 OS-X Server) mostly for file services...
Have LOTS (thousands) of folders with spaces in the folder names. Have to be there.
Until now, that was fine but I would like to use links concatentated from our database and haven't been able to get around the spaces. Have tried %20 and just a space... with no luck.
Does the afp link syntax support spaces in the file/folder names?

They simply click on them in Filemaker to access a particular nested folder within a volume. The Sharepoint or Volume is mounted when the link is clicked and a target window is opened. Filemaker on a Mac uses the Finder to access afp links.
For example, afp://192.168.1.250/Utility/Installers/Adobe/Photoshop
would open the target folder called Photoshop and mount the Utility sharepoint. This all works well.
however, afp://192.168.1.250/Utility/Installers/Adobe/Photoshop Version 7 will not work because is doesn't handle the spaces between Photoshop and Version and 7. This link would mount the Utility sharepoint but only open the root of the sharepoint.

TinyMCE3 will not work in safari OR afp:// links in Firefox

Hi,
Does anyone know how to solve one of the following problems.
We use leopard with firefox to access our college moodle site and a lot of the moodle site involves the tinyMCE3 wysiwyg html editor which safari will not display (any version) we also want to use apf:// links for linking internally to our xserve sharepoints (which firefox will not pass over to the finder)
Is there a fix for eithersafari and tinyMCE3 OR does anyone know how to get firefox to open afp:// links in the finder?

Use of href="file:///... and href="afp:// links

Mac OSX Server Apache and Safari 6.03 on Mountain Lion iMacs. I've got a simple .html file being served up by apache that has an <a href="file:///... link to a file outside the webserver root. From what we're seeing and researching, for security reasons, Safari ignores file:/// links when it's served up in an .html page. (Safari does open the file:/// if you use the File-->Open command.) Question - is there any way to have the link in the .html page and have Safari open that file ??? The closest I've come is to put a <a href="afp://... link to the file. Safari then opens a Finder window.

Opening link across Spaces?

I'm using Spaces for the first time, and set up my adium in space 1 and my firefox in space 2. When a friend sends me a link, I click on it and the menu bar switches to firefox, but the link does not open. When I space over to space 2, the link has not opened in firefox.
Is this normal? And if so, is there a workaround for this? I would really prefer to have them in separate spaces, but opening links is essential

never mind, a restart of both programs fixed the problem

How to setup a link that is of the type "Go to a page in another document"?

Is there a direct way for a javascript to setup a link that is equivalent to the acrobat link type you get when you add a link of the type “Go to a page in another document”?
Tools-Advanced Editing-Link tool, make a box
Check: Go to page view, Next (Create go to view dialog opens)
Open second document and go to page
Click “Create go to view dialog” to set up link
Result is a link, when view by link properties, with an action of
Go to a page in another document
File: C:\My Documents\File2.pdf
Page: 43
Zoom level: Custom
I have a java script in a setAction of a link that I think does the job:
l.setAction("var otherDoc = app.openDoc('../Folder2/File2.pdf', this);otherDoc.pageNum = 1 - 1;");
But is there a more direct way that actual sets up a “a link of the type Go to a page in another document” so if it's "advanced edited" its the same as the manual set links?
I would like to setup a set of pdf documents, on the hard disk of a PC or Mac, that can be open with acrobat pro running on the same computer and have the link jump to, and open in a new window, in acrobat pro, to a given page of a second document in the set.
John
Code example in more detail:
/* Insert document level JavaScript to set disclosed = true.
   This will run when the document is opened.*/
this.addScript("setDisclosed", "this.disclosed = true;");
// Search through the document for the word “Acrobat” and create a link around that word.
for (var p = 0; p < this.numPages; p++)
    var numWords = this.getPageNumWords(p);
    for (var i=0; i<numWords; i++)
        var ckWord = this.getPageNthWord(p, i, true);
        if ( ckWord == "Acrobat")
            var q = this.getPageNthWordQuads(p, i);
            // Convert quads in default user space to rotated
            // User space used by Links.
            m = (new Matrix2D).fromRotated(this,p);
            mInv = m.invert()
            r = mInv.transform(q)
            r=r.toString()
            r = r.split(",");
            l = addLink(p, [r[4], r[5], r[2], r[3]]);
            l.borderColor = color.blue
            l.borderWidth = 1
            //l.setAction("this.getURL('http://www.adobe.com/');");
           l.setAction("var otherDoc = app.openDoc('../Folder2/File2.pdf', this);otherDoc.pageNum = 3 - 1;");
Current Systems in use to create documents with links and view them:
Windows XP SP3
Word 2003 SP3
Acrobat 9 pro version 9.4.4
Or just to view them:
Mac OS 10 Lion version 10.7.4
Acrobat 9 pro version 9.5.1
(note I have limited understanding of Mac’s)

If you use buttons instead, it is possible to script adding the actions that you want. It involves creating a properly constructed FDF, saving it, and then importing it into the document. Buttons can be made to appear just like links. For more information, see: http://www.planetpdf.com/developer/article.asp?ContentID=6338

When I send a link to my iweb page it doesn't open

If I want to send a link of my iweb page to someone, the way I do it is firstly open the page online, copy the link from the browsers address and then from mail I goto "add hyperlink" paste the link in and then send, all looks ok, but when the other person tries to open, the link will not.
I sent to myself to test and found that the link address once sent this way from mail, is different than the original. Where the original address would be %20 it is now %2520. The number 25 is placed in front of 20 numerous times through out the link and so of course the site won't open.
Would hugely appreciate any feedback,
thanks
torder

I decided to edit my post and add some more info but I guess I took too long. So here's an edited version:
Idea 1 - the simple method: Forget the "add hyperlink" part. Just paste the address into your email message by hand. It comes out as a hyperlink (though it does not appear so when you are crafting the message) and does not create the problem you are having.
Idea 2 - the prettier method: Use "add hyperlink" but do some editing first. When you paste the hyperlink into the box you must replace each "%20" with a space. The link will be displayed in your email message as you would like it to appear - with spaces instead of %20's - but the underlying link will have the %20's. I can't guarantee it will come out pretty with every email program and every preference setting someone might use but any good program should get it right.

Link to folder on server from PDF

I'm trying to create a link within my interactive PDF (created in InDesign CS6) to a specific folder location on my company's server, in order to direct users to a set of logos. I've tried using an afp:// link to the folder but I get an error message telling me that Acrobat does not allow connection. Any ideas?

Don't think it can be done.
Best to upload the logos to your website and then insert the link to download them directly.
You can put an image of each logo and text like
[LOGO]
Screen/Web/Office
Printers
And provide jpegs/ai etc. files for them to download.

HTML link to bookmark in pdf file

Hi everyone,
I use the following suffix on an html link in order to link to a specific page within a pdf file: #page=15 This works but I need to know go one step further and link to a specific bookmark within the pdf. I use the following suffix to try to do this: #bookmark name The above syntax doesn't work because the bookmarks all have spaces in their names. Apparently it's supposed to work if I remove the spaces from the bookmark names but this isn't practical because I'm generating the pdf out of Indesign and the bookmarks in the resulting pdf are just a reflection of the table of contents in Indesign. I can't remove the spaces from the TOC entries just so that there's no spaces in the bookmarks in the pdf.
So I need some sort of workaround and wondered if anyone would have any suggestions. Is there some acrobat script or any other solution to this problem?
Really appreciate any help.

Try %20 instead of spaces. HTML links are URL-encoded, and this is the usual translation of a single space, as for example can be seen in links in Google.
If it works, you can automatically convert the bookmark name to URL format with the function encodeURI ("Every non-alphanumeric character is encoded as a percent escape").

How to make smb:// links open directly in Finder?

Hello,
When I click on an afp or ftp link (such as ftp://abcd.defg.com/xyz/ or afp://mac.local/xyz/), in my emails (Eudora), the request is transmitted to the Finder, and I end up with a window opened in the /xyz/ folder.
This is the case because the email client is informed to do so with these links.
However, when I click on an smb:// link (to reach a folder on a PC), then Safari is chosen be default, and can't do much more than opening a window with an error message, of course.
When I try to change this, the email client asks for a program to do smb (Finder I suppose), but then, Finder is a strange software. It is there:
/System/Library/CoreServices/Finder.app
But when I try to tell Eudora to take is as the app for smb:// links, its icon is grayed, looking like a document and not an app (when all other apps are recognised as such).
How can I solve this?
It would be VERY usefull for my co-workers to be able to go directly to an smb mount from their email message.
Thank you,

Rick,
Sorry about the misgiving adresses, folders and access rights. My question is not about these three (they were just here to tell the story). You're perfectly right to say that in a local network, there's not need to complete the full IP or ".com" name of the PCs (even if it works all the same).
When I said "of course" for the perms, it was just to mean, in the same way, that it's not this kind of problems here.
My question is much more a human/mac graphic interface problem than a network problem. I want the people (as well as myself) to be able to go in a folder on the pc network with a simple click on an smb link in an email message (as they do now on an ftp or afp link).
Thanks for the bother,

Linked Smart Objects - File Size Question

Hey guys,
first time using linked smart objects and I was pretty excited about it at first. I have a large photoshop file with 1920x1080 image assets. The file size is about 1GB and everytime I make a minor change the entire file has to be re-uploaded to my Dropbox.
So I figured that I could make all these image assets linked smart objects so that I can keep the master file down in file size since most of the actual assets don't change. However, even the PSD that contains nothing by linked smart layer objects is already 400MB large. And that's in addition to the external PSD's it is now linking to.
Even if I duplicate a linked smart layer object in this PSD file it increased the file size by an additional 10MB per duplicate. Is this supposed to happen? Why does it take so much space to just link to external objects? I was super excited about using linked smart layer objects but this doesn't look like it would be helping much to decrease file size.
Any thoughts would be much appreciated!
Thanks,
Philipp

Hey Chris,
thanks again! I guess I just had different expectations. In my mind I was going to see a parent file around 10MB or something with all of the content being dynamically loaded from the linked smart objects.
Maybe that could be a feature requests for future versions.

Link to BookMark in PDF

Hi All,
We are developing one Dash Board, which is at Region level. This dashboard do all the calculations at store level.
We are publishing this as PDF through mail. The first page of dashboard is a summary of all stores, with store information and store score. This PDF also have bookmark to stores for that particular region.
Now we need to link from summary (field: store no) to corresponding bookmark page. So the user need not go to bookmark functionality of PDF to navigate to corresponding store.
Awaiting for your valuable comments.
Regards
Baby

Try %20 instead of spaces. HTML links are URL-encoded, and this is the usual translation of a single space, as for example can be seen in links in Google.

MS Word 2007 to PDF Conversion problem links & bookmarks

I have a 200 page MS Word 2007 document in which I added hyperlinks to jump to embedded bookmarks within the document. I choose Save As --> PDF to convert the document. Once the document is converted, some of my links work perfect (I can click on any part of the underlined word) and half of the links only allow me to click on the white space preceding the link and the previous word. Further, words that start a line of text always work. Words that are within a paragraph force me to use the white space to the left of the word.
Please reference the example below:
The first "Nick" below would work perfectly (i.e. I could click on any part of the word) and it would jump to the bookmark.
The second reference to "Nick" will only be clickable in the space between "that" and "Nick" on the second line.
The first "Sally" in line one will "look linked" but I am only able to click on the blank space between "that" and "Sally".
The second "Sally" will work at anypoint in the word because it starts a line.
Ely will only be clickable between the "." and "Ely".
I have tried to save the document in every possible combination of settings.
Thanks for the help.
EXAMPLE: I would like to click on a persons name and have it jump to the end of the document where I have placed the biographies.
Nick is going to the store because he believes that Sally will be there
when he is back. Ely thinks that Nick is really not a good person, but
Sally thinks otherwise.

Are you using "Adobe PDF" or "PDF or XPS?" I sounds like "Adobe PDF," but trying to be sure. Have you updated your Acrobat to the latest version? If not, try that.

How can I make app use all available space in window?

Hi,
I'm trying to embed my flash app in a browser window and have
it use all available space. I've found plenty of tutorials online
that tell me how to make it take up the whole window, and they
work, but that isn't what I want. I have other content on the page
(a bar of links across the top). I thus want the flash app to take
up the full width and almost all the hight, leaving enough vertical
space for the link bar at the top. Right now, I have it set to 100%
for both height and width in the object tag, and it displays the
link bar, but the bottom of the flash gets chopped off (an amount
exactly equal to the height of the link bar). It seems that setting
height=100% means 100% of the full window height, not the unused
height. Is there any way to make it do what I want?

I believe the 100% will be relative to the parent container
of the Object/Embed tag.
If the Flex app is in say, a DIV that is correctly sized,
then 100% will fill the DIV. So I think you will need to get your
div sizing dynamically. A CSS expression maybe?
