Splitting and re-naming pdf

Once a pdf is split into separate pages, can each page be named with specific data from that page? I am using Acrobat X Pro.

The base file is an InDesign document with variable data fields. A merged document is created with the data from a spreadsheet. Then, a multi-page pdf is generated from that merged InDesign document. My client would like to have individual pdfs that are each named from data that appears on that page.
What would be the script? I am not that well-versed in script creation. Any help would be appreciated.

How do I batch replace 100 different linked images in my AI file and export 100 different named PDFs?

Hi all!
This is driving me crazy...
So I have my A4 AI document with a QR code at the bottom (don't ask why I'm using QR codes, client work) and need to replace it and export the A4 poster as a PDF. I need to do this 100 times with 100 different QR codes and save 100 PDFs.
To summarise I need to,
Open A4 document (that has artwork already).
Drop in QR code A near the bottom.
Export as PDF A.
Repeat..
Open main document.
Drop in QR code B.
Export as PDF B.
And so on x100....
I have a experience with actions in Photoshop but not batch actions or scripts, and obviously need to run it in Illustrator...
Can anyone help?
Thank you!

Unable to digitally sign and save a PDF document

I am currently using ADOBE ACROBAT 8.0 Professional (Ver 8.1.0). I provide proofreading service for a client. The client provides me with a PDF which I use the comment and mark up tool to indicate required changes. Once all of the comments are complete, I mark the document approved or disapproved and attach a digital signature.
Recently, many files that I have recieved from the client will not allow me to sign and save the PDF. I can save the PDF without the signature but not when it is digitally signed. The error reads:
"The document could not be saved. A number is out of range"
I queried my client to find out if they have made any changes. They have recently upgraded to Illustrator 4 and they create the PDF's for me from the Illustrator files they work from. There are four teams using the same Illustrator program but not all of them are producing files that I cannot sign and save.
Can anyone tell me what the error indicates? Is there a property assigned to the document that I can not recognize that refers to this problem.
Since the files I work on contain proprietary information, I prefer not to attach them to this forum. If anyone is interested in helping, I will share a file to fully explain my problem.

I will try that, thank you.

How to split a parallell-page PDF into single-page PDF

My situation: I have a few hundred pages of files I made quite a few years ago, optimized for "self-publishing" via the printer. I no longer have any source files (my own bad). These files have 2 pages next to each other in an A4 landscape PDF. I would like to change and combine these files into a US Letter portrait PDF.
I have browsed earlier, similar threads, most notably the most referred to thread:
http://forums.adobe.com/message/3331516
which recommends using Adobe PDF printer. However, as this thread points out, and as I for one have found on my own system (10.8.3), Adobe PDF printer is no longer an option on Mac OS X (version 10.6 and on):
http://forums.adobe.com/thread/556366
So the question then is: How do we now split double-page landscape PDFs into single-page portrait PDFs?

Since at least OSX.5 adobe has removed PDF Printer which was begining to fail it was written in Adobe's altered version of javascript and it was a wonder it was working to begin with They replaced it with an Automator action that's called up through the print Driver.
Here are the steps for applications other than Acrobat.
create you doucument. laying it out the way you want it.
Go to Print menu.
click and hold the pdf button - a context menu pops up.
now scan the list of choices and choose Adobe PDF or Adobe Quality PDF (depends on version of OS)
wait for direction fields to come up and make the desired choices (the first screen is basically job options).
when asked ask for name either ecept name give or choose name of your choice.
Browse to desired location for file
then click save.
How the PDF is layed out in acrobat is determinedby acrobat. Adobe add an additional Layer on top of the Print Driver. You can by pass it and use the Print Driver but if there is an orientation switch in your docment the page is turned so everything comes out with same edge of Paper
Oh, look out for a Grand idea Adobe did that even Forest Gump would have left alone.
If you want to do duplex printing to a PDF with more than one page you won't be able to do so whether you have your printer setup for duplex printing. You can go back and forth from printer setting s to Printer setting toggling off and on til you turn blue in the face. You have to go into the document properties and loo for a command called SIMPLEX printing its on by default and needs to be turned off. Even my cat Boots would be smart enough not to put that in.
This settinging does not permanently turn off and you have to do with each document you create or resave.

How to split a password-protected PDF file?

There is a tutorial to let you know how to split a password-protected pdf file, check in here:http://www.kvisoft.com/tutorials/split-a-password-protected-PDF-file.html

Yup. You all are right. I ordered Adobe Acrobat today and the order is still processing. I can get to Adobe Acrobat.com but that too does not work. I guess I will have to wait until my order is processed before I get the keys to the kingdom. Thanks for your help and please forgive my ignorance.Regards,Bob

Is it possible to create and save a .PDF without any compression to the resulting .PDF?

I need an uncompressed file so I can use the resulting PDF to do a find/replace. Can't do it with compression.
Thanks
JDRHC1115

Dave,
Thanks for the reply. Of all the suggestions I've received this seemed to
be most promising. I gave it a try and the problem is that when I attempt
to save as optimized a message box pops up and says I have to save my
document first. Low and behold when I save it, compression occurs. Even
when I select the options you suggest I'm left with a compressed document.
I'm using Acrobat Pro X

You don't want the UncompressPDF plugin - that's designed to split out the
COS objects but doesn't remove the Flate encoding (plus if you've never
compiled a plugin before, it's not really the time to learn).
Instead, simply save your PDF file using the PDF (Optimized) file type,
click the Settings button and under "Clean Up" - "Object compression
options", choose "Remove compression". Turn everything else off if you
want to retain the PDF content exactly as it was before.
Your document-level scripts will then be in the file as plain text.

Cannot sign and certify a PDF any more

I can't sign and certify a PDF document, and I used to be able to. It prompts me for a password and I put it there and it doesn't work.

I will try that, thank you.

StringTokenizer vs. split and empty strings -- some clarification please?

Hi everybody,
I posted a question that was sort of similar to this once, asking if it was best to convert any StringTokenizers to calls to split when parsing strings, but this one is a little different. I rarely use split, because if there are consecutive delimiters, it gives empty strings in the array it returns, which I don't want. On the other hand, I know StringTokenizer is slower, but it doesn't give empty strings with consecutive delimiters. I would use split much more often if there was a way to use it and not have to check every array element to make sure it isn't the empty string. I think I may have misunderstood the javadoc to some extent--could anyone explain to me why split causes empty strings and StringTokenizer doesn't?
Thanks,
Jezzica85

Because they are different?
Tokenizers are designed to return tokens, whereas split is simply splitting the String up into bits. They have different purposes
and uses to be honest. I believe the results of previous discussions of this have indicated that Tokenizers are slightly (very
slightly and not really meaningfully) faster and tokenizers do have the option of return delimiters as well which can be useful
and is a functionality not present in just a straight split.
However. split and regex in general are newer additions to the Java platform and they do have some advantages. The most
obvious being that you cannot use a tokenizer to split up values where the delimiter is multiple characters and you can with
split.
So in general the advice given to you was good, because split gives you more flexibility down the road. If you don't want
the empty strings then yes just read them and throw them away.

Embed eForm on Frontend of Site, Generate and Store Accomplished PDF

Hi Everyone,
My company is thinking about purchasing Adobe Acrobat X Pro, but we're on the fence since we're not sure which variant of the product to buy, nor are we sure if its even capable of doing what we need it to do.
I've tried doing the live-chat a couple of times, but no luck. And the wait-time for the calls might as well be eternity.
If anyone can tell me if what we want is possible, and what we need to accomplish it (do we need to buy anything, how do we integrate the application to our framework?), we'd really appreciate it.
Basically it's like this. We have a couple of PDFs of blank forms that we use at the office. We want to make online versions of these forms that we will have up on our website.
Whenever a client fills-out the form and clicks submit, we want the accomplished (with answers) PDF to be generated and/or stored on the server.
We were able to use a trial version of the Acrobat X Pro just fine and we were able to select the blanks and set them as fields... but after that, we don't know how to move on. Is there anyway to store this on Adobe's server and embed it on our site? Can we convert this to HTML?
Afterwards, when the client submits, the data is sent to which database? Do we need to retreive it (from where) so we can create the PDFs ourselves? Or is there an Adobe Service for this?
Our main concern is that the final product (accomplished PDF) should be identical to the original PDF we had. The eForm/Online-form itself can be redesigned so it looks better on a webpage.
Any suggestions? Are we on the right track?
Thanks!
Justin

When you say "You can then gather, organize, download, etc. the data at Acrobat.com as you wish.", how do we do this? I tried using the offline TRACKER applet (I have one on my PC), which had a Portfolio that auto-synced with Acrobat.com. I could export to CSV, and extract individual PDFs from the Portfolio, which was cool.
But is there any way to do the same operations online (no need to Adobe Acrobat on your PC)... I'm thinking of portability issues (our site admin's might need to maintain the site from a different laptop while on the go, for example.
Is there an area on the actual http://acrobat.com/ website that tracks my distributed forms and the responses, allows me to export to CSV, and extract individual PDFs?
Thanks!
Justin

Hi... I would like to purchase a Tablet Sony Xperia Z 2 10.1 (the last one of the Z series) and I was told that Adobe does not support Sony anymore.... I need to be able to open and read Adobe PDF files and I would like to know if this tablet can still use Flash Player...
Is there anyo who can help me with this? I asked in the shop and I was told "yes of course" , but when I contacted Sony directly I was advised to check with Adobe as apparently in the recent months Adobe and Sony haven't been getting along anymore...

You may be mixing up two entirely different Adobe products.
1. Adobe Flash Player. Needed to view web pages designed with Flash. Not needed to view PDF files. Not available for Android (not just Sony).
2. Adobe Reader. Reads PDF files. However, the Android can also read most PDF files without needing Adobe Reader.

When I make a Book in Aperture and print a PDF proof version, all the modified photos (marked with Badges) are totally distorted. What is causing this? All other - non-modified photos - appear to be fine.

When I make a Book using Aperture 3 and print a PDF proof version, all images that have been modified within Aperture are distorted in PDF form. All other images appear ok.

As if only the corrected layer would have remained on the photos.
So the geometry of the pictures is correct - they are not skewed or something? Only the colors and intensities are wrong?
. Only in printing when it is converted to PDF file some photos are unrecognizable.
Is it the printed pdf or the pdf viewed on the screen? If it is the printed copy you need to fix your print settings.
Does Aperture give a warning, that the high resolution images are not available?
We had some cases of books not being able to be printed, and that was due to a broken reference to the original files. Only the book could not access the originals, all other parts of Aperture could. To check for this, try to add one more adjustment to one of the images in question. Is it possible? Are the edits reflected correctly in the pdf of the book?
We were shooting with 3 cameras, Lumix5 shooting RAW, Cannon 100 shooting JPEG and SONY alfa850 shooting RAW.
Have you tried to reprocess the raw of the edited images? (Photos > Reprocess Raw)
Also try, to remove one of the images from the book and to add it again. That usually helps, if Aperture has lost the connection to the originals used in the book.
If you no have done so already, repair (and if necessary rebuild) the Aperture library.

PE 9 and 10 Help PDF Invalid List View Descriptions

Bottom line: Has anyone reported on these problems, and, if so, what is being done about them?
Until proven otherwise, I believe that Premiere Elements 9 and 10 Help PDF requires editing of its List View Descriptions which are appropriate for at least version 8.0/8.0.1, 7, and 4, but not versions 9.0/9.0.1 and 10. Please refer to the Help PDF Projects/View Clip Properties
for version 10:
http://help.adobe.com/en_US/premiere...B-312BB3F13B11
for version 9:
http://help.adobe.com/en_US/Premiere...355c-7f98.html
Problems in this regard for Premiere Elements later than version 8.0/8.0.1 and not for versions 8.0/8.0.1, 7, and 4:
1. List View Properties display in text for export video file, no Data Rate Analysis graphs
2. List View Columns, no ADD to add your own columns, so only Adobe built in ones, and none of the Adobe built in ones, like Client, allow for editable text.
Comments:
Data Rate Analysis
I had read somewhere that these graphs appear for tape based rather than non tape based imports. Mini test: Premiere Elements MPEG4.avi import and DV AVI export of the MPEG4.avi. Results: Version 8.0/8.0.1 Properties for import in text format (file properties) only and Properties for export in text format (file + export properties) as well as display of Data Rate Analysis graph. Versions 9 and 10 Properties for import (file properties) and for export (file + export properties), both import and export text only.
List View Columns
1. If I look at the project.prel WordPad documents and the Client Column information there in each, I do not see any difference.
2. If I create a Premiere Elements 8.0/8.0.1 project, set List View column choices Comments and Client, type in the comments and client information, and save/close/and re-open the project in:
a. Premiere Elements 9.0/9.0.1, the Comments columns and its information will not appear; the Client column will appear, but its information will not be editable. (The 9.0/9.0.1 version does have Client, but not Comments, as a built in choice under Edit Columns)....the latter might explain why no Comments column except...
b. Premiere Elements 10, neither the Comments nor Client columns and their information will appear. (The 10 version does have Client, but not Comments, as a built in choice under Edit Columns.)
One of the Potential Problems:
It is well accepted that, if you edit a project from an earlier version in a later version, you cannot go back to the earlier version for editing. So, one potential problem that I see in all this is the loss of this type of information on upgrading from 8.0/8.0.1 and earlier....
a. If you create a Premiere Elements 8.0/8.0.1 or earlier project which includes Comments and Client information in these List View Column choices, you will lose all that information in version 10 and have only non-editable Client information in version 9.
And, yes we have filed an Adobe Feature Request/Bug Form on this one.
Any comments about what I may have overlooked in trying to get those Help PDF List View Descriptions to work for me would be appreciated.
Thanks.
ATR

I definitely agree that the Help files could use some updating, Tony.
