Swf to pdf conversion?

I take degree classes online and the iPad does not like .swf files which one of e-books is in. It attempts to open in Evernote, but does not. Does anyone have any ideas or experience with this issue so i can have access to my books?

swf is video/animation, PDF is documents. there might be a way but it'd be several steps, using several programs and a computer, not the iPad. Other than converting you might look into a browser that opens Flash files. Puffin and Skyfire are two I see recommended. Or find out if they have a non-flash alternative.

Acrobat 9 Pro and straight .swf to PDF conversion

I have an electronic document that is several .swf files, one
file for each document page. Using cutepdf I can put each file in
firefox and then print the the page to pdf. This is very tedious
since I have 1000+ pages. I would prefer to speed this process up
with AA9.
I have Adobe Acrobat 9 Pro Extended. When I try to create a
new PDF from the .swf file I get some dialogue that treats the .swf
as embedded content. This puts an annoying play button at the
bottom of the converted page and makes it incompatible to view in
my iPhone or other handheld devices. It would seem that AA9 treats
the .swf as .swf and doesn't convert it to .pdf like cutepdf does.
I have to believe that AA9 can ignore the media type of .swf
and straight convert the content in the .swf to .pdf without
treating it like I want to embed it as a flash file inside a pdf.
How is this done? Thanks in advance.

Thanks for your reply. This problem has yet to be resolved
sadly. The play button isn't a huge deal as that the document wont
convert into straight PDF. I finally gave up and decided to batch
convert all of the files and just deal with the embedded content
angle AA9 takes. Sadly this was also a failure since every file
that was converted (1200+) wants me to confirm the embedded content
settings. Very annoying. Any help on these subjects would be
greatly appreciated.

Swf to pdf conversion problem

Don't really know if this is the best forum for this, but....
I have a few flash files (swf) which play perfectly well in
Flash Player, in the browser, anywhere you like!
I've recently been trying to convert these (with Pro 8) to
pdf files, and the process seems to complete successfully.
These new pdf files open and run well on my own PC, but after
sending a few to another PC, the viewer gets the following warning
- "'cannot play media clip because there is no player available
that can play the media while satisfying the authors intention as
well as your security settings'."
I've checked the settings inside Multimedia, Multi Trust and
Trust Manager but cannot see anything wrong.
Can anyone help out with suggestions, please?!
Thanks in advance....

Upload the PDF files somewhere and we'll take a look for you.

Automated report/ PDF conversion with AppleScript

Hello-
I am attempting to PDF a spreadsheet from Dropbox, and email it to a set list of recipients with AppleScript. Much of this I have been able to figure out, but I am having some issues with the PDF conversion. As you can see below, I am still working on sending the xls file, and have not yet been able to get AppleScript to convert a specific tab of the file to aPDF. I expect scheduling to be handled theough crontab.
Current script is as follows:
tell application "Finder"
          set folderPath to folder "Macintosh HD:Users:user:Dropbox:folder:Calculated PO Sheet"
          set theFile to first file in folderPath as alias
          set fileName to name of theFile
end tell
set theSubject to "Current PO Report" date
set theBody to "See attached."
set theAddress to "recipient email"
set theAttachment to "CALCULATED PO SHEET.xlsx"
set theSender to "sender email"
tell application "Mail"
          set theNewMessage to make new outgoing message with properties{subject:theSubject, content:theBody & return & return, visible:true}
          tell theNewMessage
                    set visibile to true
                    set sender to theSender
make new to recipient at end of to recipients with properties {address:theAddress}
                    try
make new attachment with properties {file name:theAttachment} at after the last word ofthe last paragraph
                              set message_attachment to 0
                    on error errmess -- oops
log errmess -- log the error
                              set message_attachment to 1
                    end try
                    log "message_attachment = " & message_attachment
#send
          end tell
end tell

Smart form: Spool to PDF Conversion more than 100 pages.

Hi folks,
I have an issue with Function Module (FM) CONVERT_ABAPSPOOLJOB_2_PDF when the report to be converted has more than 100 pages.....i have explained this scenario as below
We have been using the FM CONVERT_ABAPSPOOLJOB_2_PDF to convert ABAP report to PDF file and then send this via mail using FM SO_DOCUMENT_SEND_API1.....
PDF conversion using FM CONVERT_ABAPSPOOLJOB_2_PDF works well if the number of report pages is less than 100....i.e the table pdf of the FM will contain the output as expected.....
If the report has more than 100 pages, the the FM CONVERT_ABAPSPOOLJOB_2_PDF will schedule the conversion job as a background job and returns with a SY-subrc eq 0 and the table parameter pdf will ne empty.
Could you suggest me a woorkaround in this situtaion...i.e how do I then get the output of the background job
And any process to convert Spool to PDF if having more than 100 pages.
Thanks in Advance............

Pb,
If the report has more than 100 pages, the the FM CONVERT_ABAPSPOOLJOB_2_PDF will schedule the conversion job as a background job and returns with a SY-subrc eq 0 and the table parameter pdf will ne empty
i would suggest you to if pages are more than 100 than you need to send report output to sp01 with spool request number by using fm job_open..job_close..
than from sp01 you can convert pdf by running RSTXPDFT4 in se38.
hope this would solve your problem.

Acrobat 9 HTML to PDF conversion sets all checkboxes to checked?

When I convert an HTML file that contains checkboxes to PDF using Acrobat 9 Standard or Pro (fully updated) on Windows XP SP3, all of the checkboxes end up checked in the resulting PDF. I've looked in settings menus but can't find anything that seems to be a relevant option to prevent this from happening. I've attached a simple test case .html file to this post that you can use to repeat the problem.
To convert the file, I right-click on the file in Windows Explorer, and click Convert to Adobe PDF. I've tried "printing" the document to the Adobe PDF printer, but that introduces other issues and is not really an acceptable solution.
Has anyone encountered this before, and/or have ideas how to fix it?

Input elements have no such inheritance on the checked attribute. Furthermore, the input elements in my test case are not grouped together. They are each encapsulated within separate list item elements, and so no inheritance should take place after the first input element.
Just for grins, I changed the order of the elements (moved the checked one below the unchecked one), but that did not make any difference in the Acrobat 9 HTML to PDF conversion.
I did test this with Acrobat 8 Standard, and the HTML to PDF conversion preserved the correct checked status of the input elements. It looks to me like this is a bug that was introduced in Acrobat 9.

Need help about PDF conversion

I have red words in a text box using publisher. How come the text show up as black after PDF conversion in Adobe?

Hi,
I have windows 8. I am using Microsoft publisher 2013. I want to make a postcard. I made a text box and my text in the box are red. Then I click save as to convert to a PDF file. It works. It opens on Adobe but the text in the text box are black and not red. What can I do to retain the original colors?

Issues embedding swf in pdf document?

I have created a small application to illustrate Snell's law as a flash file.
The idea is to integrate it in a online educational book and I have already done so with several simple animations.
This was to be my first application with user input other than start/stop buttons.
The application works fine in a browser or as a stand-alone flash file but when I embed it in the pdf file it doesn't execute properly, nothing happens when buttons are pushed to calculate the equations.
This is my first question here so I don't know how to add my application or an example of it embedded in a pdf document but I guess including them from a filehosting site could work?
The swf file:
http://www.filehosting.org/file/details/408159/Snells_Law.swf
The PDF file:
http://www.filehosting.org/file/details/408160/test.pdf
I used CS6 Flash professional to create the SWF file.
thanks in advance
edit: also including the original fla-file: http://www.filehosting.org/file/details/408478/Snells_Law_3.fla
By moving a piece of code up through the lines I have found that after line 377, nothing gets executed. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I see no syntax errors and your code works well so there shouldn't be any issue embedding it. In Acrobat XI I get a preview of the plugin required to view the SWF and I must activate the plugin (very common on windows) by clicking on it. Once I do the SWF embedded in your document works for me, although it doesn't overlap the preview which is stretched to the size of the page whereas the plugin container is the size of the original document. So it works fine for me when viewing as a PDF and if you resize it down to its original document size it should overlap the preview properly. Plugin containers often require permission/activation (a mouse click), that's normal.
I was able to target 10.1/10.2 as the SWF export target rather than FP11. You may want to try downgrading your publish preferences to that which should reduce the overhead of the plugin container. Outside that I see no reason you should have an issue embedding this. I don't have a full copy of master at home to create the PDF to test (openoffice isn't really capable of it) so you'll have to test that yourself but the PDF you linked works for me.

HTML to PDF conversion - problems with page-breaks and bookmarks

Hello,
My company is currently considering updating your software (from Acrobat 9 Pro to Acrobat XI Pro) and I’ve been assigned to research its features and make sure that it is a right fit for our goals. Basically we want to automate the whole process as much as possible and we want to create PDF directly from HTML. We’re providing a lot of content in HTML and we need a fast way to transfer it into PDF format. There are however some guidelines:
We want page-breaks in is this kind of documents, and thus - your app needs to be able to interpret HTML and put them where we want to;
We need to have bookmarks in there. Converter must be able to make them based on headlines from HTML source or afterwards, directly in PDF by using some auto-bookmarks feature;
There has to be table of content generated, based on HTML Link Tags if possible. Here’s sample of TOC structure that we have currently:
<A NAME="redirect">sample_text</A>
<A HREF="#redirect">sample_text</A>
Of course we can modify HTML in any way you want us to. The important thing for us is to make it work in PDF without the need to make a lot of manual changes after conversion.
I’ve been messing with Acrobat 9 Pro and reading some documentation that you have provided and I’m convinced that point 3 is not a problem. I’m aware that Acrobat 9 Pro is not having any difficulties with links in document and they work fine in PDF format that has been created from HTML.
Page-breaks on the other hand are bothering me. Your app is apparently ignoring every HTML code that the Internet is advising me to use to force page-break where I want. Honestly - I’ve tested like ten ways to make them and not even one was working. That’s why I’m asking for your help.
Another problematic subject for me is the bookmarks creation. I know that they are not a problem if I’m doing DOC to PDF conversion. Then I’m able to decide what header should be used as a curtain level of bookmarks and everything is working great at the end. However - with direct HTML to PDF conversion - I really don’t know how to generate bookmarks that are based on the source of the input document. Is there any way to make fully working 2 level bookmark tree in this case? Here’s an example of the structure we want at the end:
header1
header2
header2
header1
header1
header2
Could you please help me in finding the solutions? Just like I’ve mentioned - we can modify input HTML in any way, but in the end we would like to achieve our goals as quickly as possible.
Please excuse my English.
I am looking forward to your response,
Lucas

Frankly - we would like to avoid using Word. We are using it currently but there are long-term plans of improving whole conversion process, eliminate any mid-steps and automate as much as possible even though conversion is not going to be done unattended on a server. Thank you for your response, but I hope that maybe someone else would have any idea?

Indesign to swf in PDF will not play sound

Hi, I have created a book with narration on the pages in Indesign. I have exported it to .swf. When I run the .swf file the cool page turning anmation works, the sound plays on each page - great! Now I want to embed the .swf file in a PDF so I can sell my new narrated book in a PDF format.
I drag the .swf into Acrobat Pro and then right click to get properties - I import the supporting audio files in .MP3 format (they just played fine OUTSIDE of Acrobat a minute ago) Then, I run the pdf - the page animation looks great but there is no sound.
I tried the same process with the latest demo of Acrobat X Pro - same results.
Any thoughts here?
Steve

What is the solution???

PDF conversion with PDF2ID; Hypertext not working when exported back to pdf.

I have done a PDF conversion with PDF2ID, however Hypertext is not working when I exported it back to pdf. I am using the PDF2ID plug-in program to redo all the product booklets for our company as the hypertext did not work when downloaded to any smart phone. All that appeared were blank placeholders in each booklet index page.
According to the PDF2ID people the program plug-in recovers all URLs static and dynamic and bookmarks and local links and suggested I check with Adobe ID5 for help, but Adobe says my $1,000 ID5 is no longer supported and that I should go to the forums.....so here I am.
This is the first time I've even opened my ID5, so I'm a bit lost. Now I need to improve the quality of the PDFs, as we also need to convert all images to TIFF-CMYK in order to have the booklets printed & bound professionally. they tell me ID can do that.
Any help is greatly appreciated.

Ugh...in some companies, that is training.
Don't take this the wrong way David, but of course ID can't do anything. PDF2ID conversions can be sketchy in the hands of the experienced. The same can be said of properly preparing matials for print. As Bob has already alluded, you're in an unfair position there. It's not uncommon for "management" types to just throw some sophisticated tools at a need and expect someone to make it work. In order to do what's being asked of you, you'll have to learn a fair bit about InDesign and production. It's too soon to ask about the output when you haven't learned to manage the input.

Web pages missing from PDF conversion of my website

The top page of my website has an expander list with links to subpages. When I convert my site to PDF, Acrobat skips those subpages. The expander list is closed during PDF conversion, so the links are not visible preventing Acrobat from "seeing" these subpages.
How can I make Acrobat "see" these pages?

In WORD try these for comparison: 1. Print to the Adobe PDF printer and 2. Use the Adobe menu to convert to PDF (this is PDF Maker). There are possibly 2 conversion to PDF processes in the file menu. One is equivalent to PDF Maker (Save As Adobe PDF) and the other is the MS conversion to PDF (Save As PDF or XPS).
One additional issue you may run into (since you mentioned page numbers) is a change in formating when creating the PDF. To avoid this change, be sure the Adobe PDF printer is selected in the print menu before editing the DOC file. Another option is to make the Adobe PDF printer the default.

Smartform to PDF conversion having issue with Russian address

We are having a business situation we are the invoice in English language and the the address of ship-to party and sold-to party in Russian.
The issue we face is.
When the smartform is converted to PDF the Russian specific characters are missing in the PDF output. The same are perfect in the smart form print preview.
we are using   CONVERT_OTF function module and we are getting the Russian characters correctly in the table parameter OTF.
We are using "SX_TABLE_LINE_WIDTH_CHANGE" and " SO_DOCUMENT_SEND_API1"
function module to attach and mail the pdf.
In the PDF we are missing the Russian specific characters .
For Example in "Sedláčkova čč" the output is "Sedláčkova    " means "čč" is mising
Thanks in advance

Hi,
As described in note 999712 - PDF conversion for Unicode, there is a new unicode PDF converter PDFUC.
It depends on the SAP Version if you have to install the device type or not. You can check also via SPAD -> Full Administration -> Device Types -> Display.
You can pass the device type in the output options. I used:
SSFCTRLOP-no_dialog   = 'X'.
SSFCTRLOP-getotf      = 'X'.
SSFCTRLOP-langu       = 'EN'.
SSFCOMPOP-tdprinter = 'PDFUC'.
If you specify a device other than printer in the control options like SSFCTRLOP-device      = 'TELEFAX'., above will not work as
SSFCOMPOP-tdprinter is only evaluated for printer.
You have to check in SCOT -> Settings -> Device Types for Format Conversion.
You can make a general entry or for a specific language:
PDF                           SAPscript/Smart Forms    PDFUC
PDF    EN    English    SAPscript/Smart Forms    PDFUC
Let me know if you get this working.
Jeroen.

Problem in PDF conversion of a Smartform

Hi Experts,
I have Chinese text and english text in the Smartform
When see print preview of Smartfrom the output is perfect
But when i convert the OTF to PDF using CONVERT_OTF FM and send as mail attachment,
The chinese characters are JUNK and conversion don't occur properly.
For english TEXT i use Times new roman font
For Chinese Text i use CNSONG
I have used other FM as well CONVERT_OTF_2_PDF, the results were negative.
Please advise
Regards
Balaji R

Hello Davide,
We got this solution from SAP active global support.
I suppose it works in some cases only.
Our scenario is when we try to create PDF of the smartform using FM convert_otf and send as mail attachment.
We can able to see chinese chracters when giving the print preview of the form, but during PDF conversion we get Junk chinese characters.
Even if you have multiple languages in your form, SAP proposes to use 'ZPDFUC' as device type.
My question has the solution proposed by you works in all cases?
Please advise.Thanks.
Best regards
