Look in the installation directory where you installed Assembler. You should see a 'Documentation'
folder. In it are two documents that you'll need: developer_guide.pdf and ddx_reference.pdf.

  • Help - "Acrobat is being used by another application and cannot open PDF files until the other application is closed."

    Hello,
    I searched this site and google for this error terminology and come up dry.  I support a user who has been for years using Acrobat 5 (yes, I know...) to read files in a client DB program, as well as other PDF files on their PC.  In the last week or so, they have started gatting this error "Acrobat is being used by another application and cannot open PDF files until the other application is closed." any time they attempt to open a PDF file attached to an email (via Outlook).
    It is my understanding that they cannot upgrade to a newer version of Acrobat because of limitations of their client software, but had not previously had any issues viewing PDF notes from the DB, and PDF attachments in their email.
    I have tried uninstalling and re-installing, as well as tried using Adobe Reader 7 & 9 in conjunction with Acrobat to try to get around this issue, but have not been successful.
    Any ideas?
    Thanks,
    Jesse

    I don't have an answer to your technical problem. The product I assume is Acrobat that you are talking about (based on the post title), Adobe is the company name. This is a good place to ask questions on Acrobat if folks can figure out what you are talking about. They will ask for the product version number (like AA9.3.3), operating system, and other applications if appropriate. Also, just what you are doing that generates the message.
    As for Adobe, you are not likely to get an answer from them here in the user forum. You will be lucky if you can get an answer if you can contact them and not be on hold for more than an hour (sorry, this is why a lot of folks end up in the forum).
    So, to help others try to answer your question, what are the products and versions involved? What OS? What are you doing when the message comes up.

  • Hello. Can I still use the forms central to modify my pdf.-files after the software is not supported by adope?

    Hello. Can I still use the forms central to modify my pdf.-files after the software is not supported by adope?

    Formscentral isn't designed to allow for the modification of PDF files, forms or otherwise. If you have saved forms created in Formscentral as PDF you will continue to be able to modify them in a program like Acrobat. Hope this helps.

  • Need to generate a Index xml file for corresponding Report PDF file.

    Need to generate a Index xml file for corresponding Report PDF file.
    Currently in fusion we are generating a pdf file using given Rtf template and dataModal source through Ess BIPJobType.xml .
    This is generating pdf successfully.
    As per requirement from Oracle GSI team, they need index xml file of corresponding generated pdf file for their own business scenario.
    Please see the following attached sample file .
    PDf file : https://kix.oraclecorp.com/KIX/uploads1/Jan-2013/354962/docs/BPA_Print_Trx-_output.pdf
    Index file : https://kix.oraclecorp.com/KIX/uploads1/Jan-2013/354962/docs/o39861053.out.idx.txt
    In R12 ,
         We are doing this through java API call to FOProcessor and build the pdf. Here is sample snapshot :
         xmlStream = PrintInvoiceThread.generateXML(pCpContext, logFile, outFile, dbCon, list, aLog, debugFlag);
         OADocumentProcessor docProc = new OADocumentProcessor(xmlStream, tmpDir);
         docProc.process();
         PrintInvoiceThread :
              out.println("<?xml version=\"1.0\" encoding=\"UTF-8\" ?>");
                   out.print("<xapi:requestset ");
                   out.println("<xapi:filesystem output=\"" + outFile.getFileName() + "\"/>");
                   out.println("<xapi:indexfile output=\"" + outFile.getFileName() + ".idx\">");
                   out.println(" <totalpages>${VAR_TOTAL_PAGES}</totalpages>");
                   out.println(" <totaldocuments>${VAR_TOTAL_DOCS}</totaldocuments>");
                   out.println("</xapi:indexfile>");
                   out.println("<xapi:document output-type=\"pdf\">");
    out.println("<xapi:customcontents>");
    XMLDocument idxDoc = new XMLDocument();
    idxDoc.setEncoding("UTF-8");
    ((XMLElement)(generator.buildIndexItems(idxDoc, am, row)).getDocumentElement()).print(out);
    idxDoc = null;
    out.println("</xapi:customcontents>");
         In r12 we have a privilege to use page number variable through oracle.apps.xdo.batch.ControlFile
              public static final String VAR_BEGIN_PAGE = "${VAR_BEGIN_PAGE}";
              public static final String VAR_END_PAGE = "${VAR_END_PAGE}";
              public static final String VAR_TOTAL_DOCS = "${VAR_TOTAL_DOCS}";
              public static final String VAR_TOTAL_PAGES = "${VAR_TOTAL_PAGES}";
    Is there any similar java library which do the same thing in fusion .
    Note: I checked in the BIP doc http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E21764_01/bi.1111/e18863/javaapis.htm#CIHHDDEH
              Section 7.11.3.2 Invoking Processors with InputStream .
    But this is not helping much to me. Is there any other document/view-let which covers these thing .
    Appreciate any help/suggestions.

  • How do i combine multiple pdf file into a single pdf file?

    how do i combine multiple pdf files into a single pdf file?

    The thread was started in early March and it's Mid-April, I know this very well. The OP of this thread posted a very common and simple question or maybe he/she would have resolved this. For an Adobe Acrobat user it's not at all difficult to combine multiple PDF files into one. But to combine PDF files full version of Adobe Acrobat is mainly required, otherwise PDF files can't be combined. For example, I'm using Adobe Acrobat 9 Pro. These simple steps are mainly required to combine PDF files:
    Open Adobe Acrobat.
    Click on Combine and click on Merge files into a single PDF.
    A window will be appearing, click on Add Files and select the PDF files you want to combine.
    Arrange the selected files in any order with the help of Move Up and Move Down button.
    Now click on Combine File and the selected PDF files will be combined within a few seconds.
    A new PDF file will be created. Click on Save As and name this new PDF file. Then, click on Save.
    A new PDF file will be created and all the selected PDF files are combined in it. The steps shown above might be different in other versions of Adobe Acrobat. Other than this, some third-party PDF merge software are also available. Most of them are available with a demo version for free evaluation. I've heard much about SysInfoTools PDF Merge software on other forums and directories and it's demo version is freely available. One may check its demo version if Adobe Acrobat (full version) is not available.

  • How can I retain the attached .pdf files (displayed as icons) from my word file 2010 to a pdf file?

    Hi everybody,
    I have looked for an answer in this forum ... without any good result.
    I worked on a Word 2010 file with some attached pdf files. These attached files are displayed as icons on the word file. If you double click on them, you can consult them. This works very good.
    Problem: I would like to convert this word 2010 file into a pdf file, which keeps the icons (linked to attached files) active. If I "pdf" this with my current system, icons are displayed as pictures: I cannot open the attached files.
    My question is very simple: is it possible to retain these active icons (= to open attached documents) in a pdf file? Which adobe package should I use?
    Many thanks for your help 
    cheers

    No, it's not possible, but I agree it would be a very nice feature.

    Hi , my problem is that i can only create absolute links to other pdf-files in a main pdf-file. how can i switch to or create relative links. Thanks for help!

    I’m using version 11.0.10. So where the Menu resides in a folder ready to be burnt on to a CD, that same folder is where the links point to.
    Thanks

  • Converting a pdf file to a new pdf file acrobat 9s only creates a ps file.

    Using win7 with adobe acrobat 9 standard. This is a new problew. With a pdf file open, and wanting to create a new pdf file using the print function with Adobe PDF as the prnter, I can no longer "print" the file to a new pdf file. Adobe "print to file" dialog box only provides the file type as a "ps" file. I have been using acrobat 9s without a problem. This is a new issue that just appeared today. See below - it won't allow me to print to a new pdf file. How can this be corrected?

    Make sure the Print to File option in the Print dialog is ticked off.

  • Acrobat XI PRO: Create a Table of Contents (TOC) automatically in top, after I have combined several pdf.files into a single pdf.file

    Hey
    I have now tried for hours, but now I give up!
    MY WISH -
    Create a Table of Contents (TOC) automatically after I have combined several pdf.files into a single pdf.file.
    I have already bookmarks, shown on the screen (see screenshot below) but I want those bookmark to be visualised in a separate TOC in the top of the combined files.
    This new TOC (which I have inserted) shall be printable and serve as a cover page in a binder.
    I have seen other cheap pdf.programs in the market (e.g. PDF Converter Professional 7.3) which are able to make the above things, easy, fast and nice.

    Somewhat roundabout way but this should work:

    In the print dialog under Advanced you can specify this.

  • Acrobat cannot open the file attachment because your PDF file attachment settings do not allow......

    I have an email with an attachment that requires a password the open.  I can open the file but embedded in the attachment is another attachment.  When I double click attachment I get the following error message.  Acrobat cannot open the file attachment because your PDF file attachment settings do not allow this file type to be opened.

    You would need to make a change to your registry; see http://www.adobe.com/devnet-docs/acrobatetk/tools/AppSec/attachments.html
    Basically you would need to add the .pdf with the permission 2.
    Let us know if you need help with that.  Either way, make sure to create a System Restore Point before editing the registry.

  • I want to insert .pdf files into a "Master" .pdf file at pre-determined intervals - how do I do this?

    I want to insert .pdf files into a "Master" .pdf file at pre-determined intervals - how do I do this?

    Hi markm11762689,
    When you insert pages, you can determine whether they go before or after the first or last page, or a page number that you specify.
    If you're inserting multiple files at once, they will all be inserted in the same spot that you specify in the Select File to Insert dialog box.
    There may be a way to handle this programmatically, and there are some very clever folks who visit these forums regularly. Let's see if they chime in...
    Best,
    Sara

  • When saving files from the internet, why doesn't Firefox 'know' to put .jpg files in "Photos" and pdf files in "Documents"?

    When saving files from the internet, why doesn't Firefox 'know' to put .jpg files in "Photos" and pdf files in "Documents"? IE always saved photos in the "Photos" file and documents in the "Documents" file. Firefox makes me choose every time. Very annoying.

    How about if Firefox is programmed like IE in this ONE thing...
    When saving files from internet sources, if the file ends in a typical photo extension such as .jpg, .bmp, .tif etc. it defaults to save it in your PHOTOS folder.
    When saving anything like a .doc, .pdf etc. it defaults to save it to your DOCUMENTS.
    You could still change it to 'desktop' if that if really where you want all your photos and documents... or some other folder that you decide, but DEFAULTS to the LOGICAL folder.
    I have carpal tunnel SO bad that even typing this suggestion is painful and having to make the extra click along with moving the mouse EVERY time I want to save something is painful.
    ALSO, I shouldn't need a bunch of ADDONS to accomplish this. I tried downloading one and it did nothing. The problem still exists.

    I don't think that Adobe offers any software to convert .azw4 files.  Search Google for alternate converters.
