Tool to view CIP4 metadata in PDF

Dear All,
Is there any tool available that can show the CIP4 metadata written to a PDF document.
Using the PDFVT InDesign sample plug-in I had written the metadata to a PDF file. I had followed the instructions given in the InDesign CHM help file to create the PDF with CIP4 metadata.
I had opened the PDF in Acrobat Professional 9, but did not find the metadata.
Is there any tool to view the metadata?

I did a Google search and found this thread from about a year ago:
http://forums.adobe.com/thread/836604#3606384
It looks like there is no support within InDesign (and probably Acrobat) beyond supporting PDF/VT files. Presumably you got the plug-in you're referring to from some third party company. You would need to contact them about metadata they might have added to the PDF file.

How to view the CIP4 metadata on the exported PDF?

Hi All,
I've a sample plugin from the InDesign SDK (PDFVT). This plugin writes some CIP4 metadata in the exported PDF.
My question is how can we view these CIP4 metadata using Acrobat?
Is there some other tool/software to view these metadata information on the PDF?
Thanks in Advance.

By 'CIP4 metadata' I assume you mean JDF, in which case it's usually just an attachment to the PDF. You can view/edit the contents of a JDF file via the Print Production > JDF Job Definitions dialog box. If the JDF is attached to a PDF already, just double-click it.

How do I view XMP metadata in Adobe Reader?

How do I view XMP metadata in Adobe Reader?
I've created a PDF which (I believe) includes XMP metadata, and I'd obviously like to check that it's been done correctly. However it's not obvious how to view this within Adobe Reader (I'm using 11.0.04 on OS X). Googling around, I've found an off-hand remark that Reader isn't able to do this, but this is obviously insane -- what's the point of licensing metadata if no-one can see it? What is it I'm missing?
Best wishes,
Norman

I've put a PDF at http://nxg.me.uk/temp/part1.pdf This does display/print perfectly OK in both Reader and in OS X Preview. I presume that the /Root object (254) is inside one of the ObjStm streams (yes?), as (presumably) are the /Page streams and the reference to the /Metadata object, 52.
Regarding scanning, Part 3 of the XMP spec, Sect 1.2 says "It is always best to use format-aware file parsing when possible. Lacking this information, applications can find XMP packets by scanning the file." Also, in Sect. 1.2.1, "A file should be scanned byte-by-byte until a valid header is found." Finally, ISO-32000-1 Sect. 14.3.2, Note 3, says "[The XMP spec] includes a method to embed XML data within non-XML data files in a platform-independent format that can be easily located and accessed by simple scanning rather than requiring the document file to be parsed." So it would appear that this metadata packet _should_ be found.

Adding Metadata to PDF Form

Hi, I'm trying to add some metadata to a pdf. I have the follow script in the form initialize event:
if (form1.desc.nodes.namedItem("metadata") == null) then
var oNode=xfa.form.createNode("text", "metadata")
form1.desc.nodes.append(oNode)
endif
I receive the error message:
Argument mismatch in property or function argument
I also tried this code:
if (form1.desc.nodes.namedItem("metadata") == null) then
var oNode=xfa.form.createNode("text", "metadata")
oNode.value = "Test Data"
form1.desc.nodes.append(oNode)
endif
Which gave me this error:
accessor "oNode.value" is unknown
It appears that the oNode object is not being created.
Any suggesting how I can add Metadata to the PDF?

Hi,
This is the code I use to place metadata into the pdf file. If you open
the resulting pdf file using Notepad, the metadata is visible as readable
text in the file. I'm not sure the same approach can be used to add
metadata as viewed under Document Properties. We are not using it that
way. Maybe by changing the node name?
if ((EMAIL_SUBJECT1.rawValue != "")&&(EMAIL_SUBJECT1.rawValue != null))
        var vDesc=xfa.template.data.desc;
        var oNode1=xfa.template.createNode("text", "EMAIL_SUBJECT1");
        vDesc.nodes.append(oNode1);
vDesc.nodes.namedItem("EMAIL_SUBJECT1").value=EMAIL_SUBJECT1.rawValue;

How did you get this to work? I
I'm looking for a way to add/inject values (keywords) into the form's
meta-data by retrieving the info/values from user input.
To test the above solution, I added the following script to the initialize
event as referenced, but I'm not sure what is happening:
if (form1.desc.nodes.namedItem("metadata") == null)
var oNode=xfa.form.createNode("text", "metadata")
form1.desc.nodes.append(oNode)
1. Do I need a field on the page?
2. What part of the above script affects the meta-data?
Thanks!

Hi Vivek,
Thanks for your reply. I am using the Hyperion Financial Reporting (11.1.1.3) server on Windows 2003 32 bit and GNU Ghostscript is only available for unix type of OS. On one of our old 9.3.x env on Windows 2003 is working fine with regular ghostscript. So seems issue is something else. Is any log files which I can review and post the error for you ?

Users with read access to the site unable to view Managed Metadata Navigation

Hi everyone,
I created a Managed Metadata service and created group, term-set and terms
I gave read access to users
I set up navigation to use Managed Navigation
I am logged in as farm admin and able to view the navigation when i browse site. But user are not seeing navigation.
One thing i noticed is when i give users full access or designer access to site they will be able to see the navigation. but i don't want to give users full access or designer access to the site.
How can users with read only access to site can view Managed Metadata Navigation...Please help?

Hi Sunil,
Have you given your users permissions to actually read the MMS data from the service application?
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ff625176.aspx covers permissions on the MMS.

HT204365 I have many PDFs in my iBooks , but I cannot transfer them out or email them? I'm trying to view them in a PDF reader but its as if these docs are permanently stuck in there even though everything is stored in iCloud. I can't figure this out.

My PDFs stored in iBooks cannot be transferred out reviewed by other apps this is very frustrating because I have many manuals documents and check list all in iBooks but it seems that once you choose to "open in iBooks" this document is now stuck trapped inside here and I am unable to view any of these PDFs with a more dance PDFReader.
Yes I'm enabled iCloud on both my PDFReader's and in my iPad for my documents. I can't even select one of my PDFs to transfer into my dropbox or another cloud storage device so again these documents which I've collected over the last few months or now trapped in this horrible PDF reading program.

When I open emails with PDFs I click on the attachment (doing this all on my iPad) it gives me the option to "open in iBooks", I accept then after that the document is sucked into my iPad but I can't do anything with the PDF after that. Where is the actual file on my iPad? Why can't I email or send these PDFs to my cloud (Dropbox)?
It's like once they go into iBooks they're stuck forever.

You are viewing this document in PDF/A mode.

In the latest version of Adobe Reader the message "You are viewing this document in PDF/A mode." is displayed very prominently when viewing PDF/A files.
While fairly trivial if you are spending some time with the document this can be quite a nuisance in my situation where I'm proofing a large number of single page PDF/A files.
I have a web based application that allows me to page through them quite rapidly, but this message eats up considerable space on my screen and means I have to adjust zoom more often than otherwise would be the case.
So my question is, is there a way to disable this message, i.e. just show the blue "i" button that can be used to toggle the message on and off. Obviously toggling it off for each individual file does me little good.
I did find instructions to simply disable PDF/A mode, but that is not what I want, I would like to proof them in PDF/A mode, just get rid of the message. After all I'm well aware that I'm viewing the documents in PDF/A mode and need no further reminders.

Found it! Thank you!

Use of XMP Custom Panel to automate insertion of metadata into PDF file.

I'm new to the world of XMP so please bear with me.
I'm exploring ways of automating the insertion of metadata into PDF files, either at the time of creation, or through a batch process. The metadata values for a given set of documents would be static, so these could be "hard coded" into the mechanism use to insert the metadata.
Would an XMP Custom Panel be something I could use to achieve this goal. If so, can you please provide some details on how to go about doing this.
Thanks in advance.
Louis

Were you able to find a solution to this problem? I am having the same issue.

Thumbnail view of local network .pdf files on iPad?

Problem: I have about 250+ Lego Building Instructions saved on my MacPro. My kids like to rebuild the sets and I'm looking for a way to view these form our iPads WITHOUT me having to sync them.
Is there any app that offers a visual/thumbnail view of local network pdf files?
I'm aware that I could upload them all to Dropbox, but even then I was not able to find a visual view in the Dropbox app. And, since there is no need to go up to a cloud I'd like to avoid that step.
I would rather not have them even kept on the iPads but rather just have the iPads view the copy from my hard drive and then trash it on close off said magical app.
Any suggestions?

no one? nothing? anyone? anything?

Viewing word docs and PDFs

I want to put word docs or PDFs on my touch. I read that I can save the word docs as PDF and put it in photos or save them as txt and put them in notes, but my computer recognizes my touch as a camera and won't let me drop things in the root folder. I already did the thing where I tell my computer not to ask me what to do with the camera when I connect it, but it still thinks it's a camera. Is there anything I can do to make this work?

Your touch is not a disk drive per se like the old iPod classics or nanos and therefore you won't be dropping anything into it. You can certainly view Word documents and pdfs that are e-mailed to you, however. You can use WiFi to copy files to your touch if you purchase and install the correct apps. Check in the App Store for Documents to Go and similar programs.
Disabling the camera notification is detailed here: http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1500
This covers Win 7 and Vista but there is a link to an XP version.

How to make Adobe as your default viewer for all your PDF file instead of the Preview given? Thanks

How to make Adobe as your default viewer for all your PDF file instead of the Preview given? Thanks

you need to "Get Info" on the file first. Select it, right click and select 'Get Info' in the menu.
In the window that pops up, near the bottom, the "Open With" drop down menu needs changed. If the drop down menu does not present the one you want, select "Other" and find it.

How to import XMP metadata in pdf

Could you please explain me, how to import XMP metadata in pdf file through "Live Cycle ES"?

Yes, with LiveCycle ES (almost) all services can be invoked from any of the available endpoints (watch folder, EJB, WebService, etc).
In this case since the ImportXMP requires two input files (the PDF and the XMP) you will need to drop a directory containing both of your files into the watch folder (not the individual files). This is because several requests can be dropped into the watch folder at the same time and without the sub directories LiveCycle couldn't tell what XMP when with what PDF.
A com.adobe.idp.Document - AKA: Document - object is one of the common object types used across all LiveCycle products. When you deal with PDFs and many other binary file objects they are stored a Document object. It is more important that you know this when using Workbench, web services or the Java API.
You should have a look at the documentation at: http://livedocs.adobe.com/livecycle/8.2/programLC/programmer/help/001553.html

Can I view full metadata in iPhoto?

In iPhoto, when I display metadata (using "Show Photo Info"), the info displayed is only a small portion of complete metadata embedded in photos. I know the full metadata is being imported with the photos into iPhoto because I am able to view full metadata from photos exported from iPhoto and uploaded to FLICKR, or opened in Nikon ViewNX, etc.
I am using iPhoto '08. Do later versions of iPhoto display full metadata?
Thank you in advance for any help on this.

Try using EXIF Viewer. You can drag the photo from the iPhoto open window onto the EXIF Viewer icon in the Dock and you'll get this window:
The screenshot is for a simple Canon so the flash info is basic. If you camera offers more flash info it might be readable. Give it a try. You can download it from Toad's Cellar.
