Tagged PDF files from ColdFusion.

Does anybody know about the current -- and maybe future --
capabilities
of ColdFusion tools that generate PDF files, such as
<cfreport...> and
<cfdcoument...> tags, to create 'tagged' PDF files?
Tagged PDF files are PDF documents that have structural
markup
information along the lines of HTML to give accessibility
aids, such as
screen readers, more information on what content the PDF
document contains.
I have been looking high and low for information on how one
may create
tagged PDF's -- or add tag markup to a created PDF -- with
ColdFusion.
I'm getting a sinking feeling this is just beyond the
capability of our
beloved tool!

This is a rather old version; you may need to run it in XP compatibility mode.

Populating a PDF File from ColdFusion

I wanted to populate a pfd file from coldfusion and I found
this online:
http://www.school-for-champions.com/coldfusion/cftopdf.htm
When I submit the form.. I then show a link [view pdf].. only
when I click
on that lick I get a message saying
Adobe acrobat: the file is damaged and could not be repaired.
Has anyone used this method successfully? If so, would like
to hear some
suggestions.
The PDF template I created just have 2 fields. firstname
lastname (which
matches cfm form).
Thanks in advance
1. Create PDF document to populate
Create the document you want to populate. This document could
be done in
Microsoft Word, as an HTML page or using some drawing
application. Then
create a PDF file of that document.
You must have Adobe Acrobat or the equivalent to create a PDF
file.
Typically, the easiest way to create a PDF is to click File
> Print and
select Acrobat Distiller as your printer.
2. Enter fields with Acrobat
Once the document is in the PDF format, open it in Acrobat.
Use the menu bar
tools to define your fields.
a.. Use the Form Tool to define the various text fields,
give each a name,
and designate the font type and size. The field name should
correspond to
the name of the data you will input.
b.. Use the Text Tool to modify areas of text. You may have
to change the
font or font size. It is not the easiest tool to use.
This will be your PDF template.
3. Create a ColdFusion page to populate the PDF
Create a ColdFusion form to gather data from input over the
Internet or from
a database query. This page or an action page will provide
the means to
populate the PDF file.
The code you use will depend on the method or software you
decide to use.
Options will be explained in the next section.

Hi, I need your help again.. And if you can do this for me; i
will pay for
your time. just let me know. because i need this project wrap
up in the next
28 hours.
I've used the Ben Forta (cf_PDFFROM) and i'm able to get the
pdf. (great)
now i need to suppress blank lines.
my pdf is a business card template.
on the left top down
firstname middle name lastname
job title
address1
address2
address3
www.whatever.com
on the right bottom up:
phone:
fax:
mobile:
email:
aim:
there's where I'm stuck:
if a user does not enter a fax number... I want the PDF to
move 'phone:'
down 1 line and not show the word 'fax'.
PLEASE can someone point me in the right direction OR tell me
you can do it
quickly. contact me and i'll pay you.
thanks in advance!

search these forums for "itext", you should see plenty of
examples. but i don't
recall we've ever made it work w/cf5. cf5 & java is
harder than mx.
i guess you also might look at some of the commercial apps
like activePDF, etc.

Calling JSP Tag Files from Coldfusion

You get the custom tag output into a hidden variable (say 'key') and use the request.getParameter("key")
Hope u got the answer...

When I download .pdf files from my office they are converted to .ashx files

When I download a .pdf file from my Outlook mail box at my office, Firefox reads it as an .ashx file. However if I use Safari, it is read correctly as a .pdf file.
How can I fix my Firefox browser?
An IT person at my office said I should reset the download actions by deleting mime.Types.rdf, but I can't even find this file.

Delete PDF file from a folder

Hi!
please help me this is urgent..
i try to delete pdf file from my local pc how to do that ??
can some one help me i need it by today please help me ..
thanks to all of you...
from:
newbie

First you open a File to the specified file, and then you call delete(). Easy
File file = new File("path/filename");
file.delete();Of course if you want to make your application cross-platform you will need to build a correct path somehow. Check out the static attributes of the File class to help you (fx. File.separator).

How do I retrieve a deleted PDF file from Adobe Reader on iPad?

I inadvertently deleted a very important PDF file from the Adobe Reader on iPad. Does anyone know what I can do to retrieve it? A reply would be highly appreciated!

needhelp74328262,
Unfortunately, once a file is deleted, you won't be able to "undelete" it.
Have you backed up your iPad using iCloud or iTunes recently? If so, you can restore the entire content (not just a single PDF file) on your iPad.

Function module to fetch pdf file from App. Server and print/email?

Hi all,
Is there any function module to fetch a PDF file from APPLICATION SERVER and print the PDF file or send it as an attachment in an email?
Please help..
Thanks in advance.
Sandeep.

Hi Sandeep,
Is there any function module to fetch a PDF file from APPLICATION SERVER
1) As far as i know there are no FMs to read a file from App server, you can do the same using *OPEN/READ/CLOSE dataset ABAP statements - There are tons of examples for this on the net.
and print the PDF file or send it as an attachment in an email?
You can send the file read from the app server(by the suggested method above) and use CL_BCS to send it as an attachment.
Again there are many examples on the net on how to use CL_BCS for the same.

Chen

Window cannot find u201CC/Documents and Settings/b2m/SaoworkDir/5015851 Vendor data sheets B&P 2010 SDown XXX .PDFu2019. Make sure you typed the name correctly, and then try again. To search for a file, click the start button, and then click serch.
Looks like this particular file is not transferring to the SAP work directory.
Could you please check and suggest us as to how to fix it.
Thanks & Regards,
Srivas

Hi,
Thanks for your reply.
We verified your OSS notes it's not relevant to us Because our issue is while opening the PDF aatchement it is not transferring to my SAP Work Directory because of that reason we are getting the KPRO error. When I'm opening the other PDF files it's transferring to my SAP Work Directory and it's automatically open without any issue.
Please check and suggest.
Thanks,
Srivas

The pdf is loading as html code. If you save it, it will download as :
605124.pdf.html
Change the extension to .pdf
And it opens and works perfectly, I just tested it:
Use this link to download it automatically:
