Summarize Comments Using SDK

With Acrobat 8 Pro, is it possible to use the SDK, JSObject, or some other method to convert and save a specified PDF in one of the comment summary formats (as you would do manually by selecting Comments | Summarize Comments...) without any user intervention?

OK, thanks.
I see that summarizing comments is possible by using a batch sequence. Could I invoke a batch sequence from, say, a VB.NET application or a batch file?
What I really need to do is: for a group of PDFs in some folder, detect which have comments, create comment summaries for the ones that do, add text to the upper-right corner of all PDFs (could be watermark or FreeText annotation), then continue to process the group from another program. Initiating the whole thing from the other program without user interaction with Acrobat would be ideal.
I'm just starting to learn what's possible, so I really appreciate any guidance to point me in the right direction.

  • Acrobat 9 Pro resets printer after using "Summarize Comments"

    When trying to print comments, if you chose your printer, then go through the "Summarize Comments" dialog box, after you hit "Print Comment Summary" it resets to the default printer. Is there any way, other than changing the default printer, to fix this?

    Oops, sorry, missed that (that you did the uninstall/reinstall tango. The problem is still likely associated with having copied a whole system image or files over. Unfortunately, this is something that Adobe has to directly assist you with. Were you waiting 2 hours just to speak with someone or were you on with someone for two hours who wasn't able to help. If the latter, ask for a supervisor.
    If you still can't get assistance, please contact me with a private message.

  • How to include an attachment in summarize comment report in acrobat 9 Pro?

    I have a shared review document intiated using Acrobat 9 Pro, and some ppl have commented using the "Attach a file as a comment" tool. Now when i summarize my comments that attachment does not show up in the report, so how can include the attachment in the report?

    Sorry for my late response, have been on holiday...
    1) I had installed Acrobat Reader 8
    2) I can see the 'Adobe PDF Reader' object in my ActiveX Controls dropdown box
    3) I can add this object to a report
    4) intellisense does not show the loadfile method but it changes to LoadFile and it compiles
    5) displaying the report does not show anything on my report
    6) using the object.src property no results either
    7) I can add this object to a form
    8) intellisense does not show the loadfile method but it changes to LoadFile and it compiles
    9) running the form brings up a runtime error 'method not found'
    (that's different behaviour as in the report !!!)
    10) using the object.src property gives FINE results!!!!
    Almost the same behaviour was mentioned in a topic by Bob Wintemberg, http://www.adobeforums.com/webx/.3bc443d7 , but there was no final solution mentioned!
    Any help would be very appreciated!
    BTW i looked in the 'Developing Applications Using Interapplication Communication' document but that does not bring my any additional knowledge!

  • Issues when Printing with "Summarize Comments" option

    I've been using Acrobat 8 to review documents via the comment tool.
    The issue is that when I want to print a hard copy and I select "Summarize Comments" and Select the option to print "Document and Comments with sequence numbers on separate pages" option, I can not get a full sized (A3)printout of the original document. Acrobat seems to automatically place a large white border around the original page and no selection of orientation or page size seems to remove this.
    Can any advise a solution to enable a full size printout with the sequence numbers included.

    It's going to be tough to match the RGB work you've done for the web and laser printers are a challenge.  You might have to rebuild the file or convert the colors to CMYK.  The grays will probably be the easy part ( 20%, 45% ), but the dark greenish blue will have to be remixed ( i.e., 100C, 18.5M, 0Y, 51K ).  I think you could use the existing elements, but you might have to expand them or divide them.  You should avoid layering or overlaying, just work with a flattened .ai file and see if that prints any better.  Raster elements, transparency, and layering effects are better handled via a Postscript 3 RIP + PRINTER.  If your laser is non-postscript and does not have a RIP ( raster image processor ), then the color will be problematic.  If you will be printing the sheets for the tradeshow using the laser, then whatever you mix will be able to be proofed ( by eye, I assume ) internally.  If you go outside and use a Kinkos or something, then color should be proofed using a contract proofer at your local prepress shop before sending it out to be printed.

  • Summarize comments cuts out margin

    Hello,
    I have a client running acrobat 9 pro and she puts a lot of comments in her PDFs. She is trying to print the comments in the PDF by using the summarize comments option, however it appears to cut off everything from the left margin, where some of her comments reside.
    Is there a setting I can change that will allow the summarize coments feature to include everything on the page?

    Did you ever figure out the solution to this problem? I am having the same issue.

  • Summarize Comments shifts my PDF to the left

    When I use the summarize comments tool, the pdf automatically shifts to the left.  This results in text being chopped off on the left and a white strip on the right.  It appears this only happens to PDFs that have been created using a scanner.  PDFs that have been generated from software like ACAD or Microsoft Word, seem to be fine.  The screen capture below shows the offset for this page, which is part of a multipage document.  This page is a PDF that had been scanned due to a signature being present.  Before the summarize comments button was pressed, all text was centered perfectly on the page.  This page did not have any comments associated with it, but the other pages in the document did. The other pages did not suffer from the offset because those pages were created from the native files.

    This solved my issue, regards Jeroen

    It sounds like the "Zoom" feature is being activated. Check in "System Preferences">"Universal Access" to make sure it's off. You can also turn it on or off with the key combination "Option, Command, Number 8"

  • Is the "File Print Summarize Comments" feature accessible from a plugin?

    Hi,
    Can someone tell me how to produce the "connector line" PDFs ( File>>Print>>Summarize Comments>>Document and Comments with Connector Line... ) programmatically through a plugin?  I've looked through the SDK (e.g. AVDocPrintPagesWithParams) but haven't found anything.
    Thanks,
    Bill

    I believe you can do this via an AVCommand.

  • How can I parse the document in WebI using sdk?

    I wanna to parse the document in WebIntelligence using sdk. My question is :
    1) By which sdk, I can parse the document.  'Report Application Server SDK' ?
    2) I wanna to parse the 'Self-Defined SQL' and 'Query' components of the document. Can the sdk support this request ?
    My enviroment is  BO XI Release 2.
    Thanks all.

    Hi shao,
    1) By which sdk, I can parse the document. 'Report Application Server SDK' ?
    'Report Application Server SDK' is For Crystal reports so for WebIntelligence or DesktopIntelligence Report it is  "Report Engine SDK".
    Apart from this if you want to do more on these reports "BusinessObjects Enterprise SDK" can be used.
    You can get more information on below link for XI R2.
    http://devlibrary.businessobjects.com/BusinessObjectsXIR2SP2/en/devsuite.htm
    For question 2,
    I am not sure about it but Report Engine SDK provides classes and interface of Data Providers.
    i.e. Building and Editing Data Providers   and  Working with Recordsets.
    Also you can have look on
    Report Engine SDK's
    Interface "Query"
    Hope these helps you.
    Thanks,

  • How do I do validation using SDK.

    How do I do validation using SDK.
    We have created different warehouses for the client business operations.
    For eg:
    1. Inspection Stores
    2. Rejection Stores
    3. Main Stores
    In Goods Return & A/P Credit Memo, other than RejectionStores is
    selected, we want to generate a warning message.
    How do I do this through SDK.
    I need the code sample for the following activity:
    1. Reading the data available at each row of the current form (Goods
    Return/ A/P Credit memo)
    2. Validate the data with a paricular warehouse
    3. Generate warning message.
    I could not find any samples related to this.

    There is a method called MessageBox for the Application object. Have a look at
    the documentation, everything is there.

  • "Submission status" error while posting comments using evcom

    Hi friends,
    I am  getting "Submission status" error while posting comments using evcom. This error comes up even when we use "post comments" option in Action Pane.
    The error text goes like this :
    Error Message -
    This cell can not be updated.  Submission status must be modified to allow changes.
         010_000|2009.TOTAL|INTERCO|NOPC
    How can we get rid of this error?

    That's means the status for that specific category, time entity is approved and you can not do any changes including
    comments chnages.
    You have to change first the work status for that entity and after that you will be able to submit your comments.

  • Printing problem with Summarize Comments?

    Printing problem with Summarize Comments in Pro 10.1.6? When I print, I only get the number boxes on one page and the comments on the next page. The numbered boxes don't show up on the actual image itself.

    Um I dont know if im doing something daft but I tried this like you said
    PrinterJob printJob = PrinterJob.getPrinterJob();
    printJob.setPrintable(this);
    if(printJob.printDialog()){
    try {
              PageFormat pageFormat = printJob.defaultPage();
              if (pageFormat.getOrientation() == PageFormat.PORTRAIT) {
              landscape = 0;} else {
                   landscape = 1;}
              System.out.println("THE ORIENTATION IS "+ landscape);
              printJob.print(); }
    catch (Exception PrinterExeption) { PrinterExeption.printStackTrace();}
    and it doesnt seem to work as I tried it both as landscape and portrait in the print dialog but landscape is always 0.
