Using Acrobat with Adobe Drive

I am exploring using Acrobat professional with Adobe Drive 2.1. I have not seen an explict statement that Acrobat can use Adobe drive.
Here are my questions:
1. Can Acrobat 9 or 10 interact with Adobe Drive 2.1?
2. Are there any Acrobat limitations to using the exposed Adobe Drive 2.1 CMIS functionality?
Thanks
Tom

FatMac>MacPro is correct about using Preview to read PDF's. It is built in, reliable and kept up to date by Apple software updates.
Adobe Reader has had vulnerabilities that can cause your Mac to be attacked via malicious PDF's. Keeping Reader up to date is essential for good security, however Adobe updaters nag so much that it is simpler to avoid installing it if at all possible.
PC users recommend it because they had no PDF support for so long, OS X has always had PDF support from Apple.

No previews in Bridge with Adobe Drive 3?

We are using a custom connector for Adobe Drive. Windows Explorer shows the correct thumbnails and previews for asset versions (in the Show Versions UI). However in Bridge we cannot see any thumbnails or previews. Clearing or purging the cache does not help. It turns out that the execute method in the GetPreviewIconHandler class is never called when browsing assets in Bridge. This used to work fine with Adobe Drive 2 (at least for jpg previews, png previews never seemed to work in Bridge). We tried different Bridge versions (4.0.4.2, 4.0.5.11, 4.1.054) but they all have the same problem. Did anything change regarding this behavior in Adobe Drive 3? Thanks in advance for any advice.

Indeed, adding the READ_XMP_METADATA capability seems to do the trick.
Thanks for the quick help.

Is it legal to buy a used laptop with Adobe software on it?

I'm thinking about buying a used laptop with Adobe CS5 Master Collection on it.
Would I be able to use this software if I wasn't the original purchaser?
How does licensing work in a situation like this?

Hi Darryl,
Provided it isn't an Education version (which are non-transferrable with Adobe), plus if you meet the other criteria for a license transfer, then it could be possible to legally do it.

Is OnLocation available with CC service? I want to use it with Adobe Story.

Is OnLocation available with CC service? I want to use it with Adobe Story.
I have never had a copy of OnLocation, but it looks to be a great way to manage Adobe Story and the workflow for shoots.
Is there something else that is exports to that works similar to OnLocation?
help

I see that I can view Adobe Story in two locations of Premiere Pro. As a window and under File, Adobe Story (which is usually grayed out).
I have exported the script as an .astx, Opened PP and clicked file, Adobe Story, Attach Script File ; then I am not sure what to do to see it.
I clicked on Metadata but there is nothing there.
The Window, Adobe Story shows dialog and scene no. and est duration. Is that all I should see? Why the Attach Script File option? And what about seeing the schedule?
Thx Troy

Check in dialog with Adobe Drive 4.2 doesn't work

Hi,
we are currently implementing a custom check-in dialog using Adobe Drive 4.2.
The dialog looks like the example given in discussion "Custom check in dialog".
To build the SWF, I use Flash Builder 4.5 with Adobe Flex SDK 4.0.0 (flex_sdk_4.0.0.14159A).
I have created a new Flex Project with Application type "Web" and added a MXML Modul with name "CustomUI" and option "Do not optimize (module can be loaded by multiple applications)".
After compiling the project I extract the "CustomUI.swf" and copy the file in the "resources" folder of my Custom Adobe Drive adapter.
I implement the "IGetCustomCheckInUIHandler", "ICanEnableCustomCheckInUIHandler" and "IGetCustomCheckInUIContextInfoHandler":
"IGetCustomCheckInUIHandler" sets the module url like
response.setModuleURL(Thread.currentThread().getContextClassLoader().getResource("resource s/CustomUI.swf"));
"ICanEnableCustomCheckInUIHandler" enables the custom ui dialog with
response.setCanEnable(true);
"IGetCustomCheckInUIContextInfoHandler" adds some context data like
Map<String, Object> contextInfo = new HashMap<String, Object>();
contextInfo.put("key1", "test1");
response.setContextInfo(contextInfo);
(Also hidding the "IGetCustomCheckInUIContextInfoHandler" in "IRemoteHandlerFactory" doesn't work.)
Right click on an checked out asset in Windows Explorer and click on "Adobe Drive 4/Check in..." does following:
1. "IGetCustomCheckInUIHandler" called
2. "ICanEnableCustomCheckInUIHandler" called
3. "IGetCustomCheckInUIHandler" once more called
4. "IGetCustomCheckInUIContextInfoHandler" called
5. The default check in dialog is shown (with no custom ui extension), the default dialog hangs (OK/Cancel doesn't react on click, the dialog is freezed). Only the close button (X in the right upper corner) works.
How is it possible to provide a custom ui check in dialog?
Thanks

Hi again.
I found where the problem was (at least in my case).
To go to the point: go in the "properties" of your flex project. In the menu, go in "Flex Build Path" and then in "Library Path". Then, the option "Framework linkage" is with the default value in a new flex project.
So here is the trick : with Flex 3 (so Adobe Drive 3), the default value is "merged into code". Bug in the Flex 4 (so Adobe Drive 5), the default value is "Runtime Shared Library".
And because the module is ran independently (with no link with the flex code that load your module), the flash player crashes because it doesn't find your libraries (like ICustomCheckinUI).
I discovered this problem running the Custom UI from the windows explorer (not with Bridge) and using the Flash Player Debug version, and watching the error log files of the Flash Player.
So in the end, when I checked "merged into code" in the Framework Linkage option, all my dependencies of my flex module were merged into my final module swf, and no more flash crash.
Sorry for my bad english and hope it helped.

Getting going with Adobe Drive 4

So we're looking for a Digital Asset Management system. Since we use the Master Collection, times 14, so an Adobe solution would be great!
We found Adobe Drive 4 to be a perfect fit for us...
However getting started has been a pain in the ***....
We have a Mac Pro, with 2 x quadcore 3.2's, 32 GB of RAM, 1 x 256GB SSD, 26 TB eSATA and Firewire 800 connectors... Installed on it is the Master Collection, OSX Server and Adobe Drive, that's it!
Fast forward to yesterday as my ip address, 10.0.0.108, as I type in the Adobe CQ Digital Asset Management details, server url, username, password, desplay name, I get the following error...
"The server could not be connected"
com.adobe.drive.connector.api.exception.RemoteSystemNotFoundException: Failed to connect repository
I've tried everything I can think of to get Adobe Drive 4 connected so I can get our assests under control... I'm at my wits end an need help getting this up and running..
PLEASE!
Ted

You’ll need to identify an asset management system to work with…either from Adobe or a number of outside vendors. To fully enable the Adobe Drive connection to a DAM server, one needs an Adobe Drive plug-in (what we call connectors) to interface with the DAM. Adobe Drive includes a connector that is designed to work with Adobe’s CQ DAM, now Adobe Experience Manager DAM. We also include a generic CMIS compliant connector that will work with servers that implement the Content Management Interoperability Services (CMIS) specification. There are also custom connectors available from third-party vendors that are designed to work with their DAM systems.
If you are interested in learning more about the Adobe Experience Manager DAM, go here.

Issue with Adobe Drive showing 2 drives when connecting to a HA environment

I am using Adobe Drive 5 and when connecting to a HA application it shows 2 drives. Even if I use the direct IP of one node 2 drives show up
Any idea how to stop a second drive shown up?

I have "SMB/CIFS" not "SMB/CIS" - does that make a difference? (I'm in uncharted waters here...)
When I go to Configure it, the default Workgroup is "Windows" in what looks like a drop down menu, but there is nothing else in the menu.
The WINS Server: is blank and I can't type anything in it.
I changed "Windows" (because I can type there) to the Workgroup of my school, and tried again with the same results.
The "Apply" and "Revert" buttons are grayed out. Only a few of the options are checked: AppleTalk, Bonjour (grayed), LDApv3, SLP, and SMB/CIFS
Authentication is set to Custom Path (/Netinfo/DefaultLocalNode)
Contacts set to "Automatic" (same path as above)
I'm trying to be a thorough as I can in my description, because I'm unfamiliar with this utility and want to make sure I'm not missing anything.
Thanks.

Using IX500 with adobe?

How can I use the Fujitsu snapscan ix500 scanner with Adobe Acrobat XI?

The dial in process would be exactly the same as if you were dialing into the bridge as a participant. Most of the time it needs the following steps.
Phone number:           800-555-5555
Delay:                        3000 ms
DTMF: (passcode)     123456#
Delay:                        3000ms
DTMF:                      1 or # (for a roll call or to join the bridge)
However if the provider is not using a SIP compliant bridge, the Universal Voice tool will fail upon attempting to dial out.
Also, for the hosted environment, the phone bridge must have a toll-free number.

Photoshop CS6 not allowing Check In with Adobe Drive 4.2 & AEM 5.6 DAM

I have just started to set up a AEM DAM for my design team to utilize. While it worked exactly as expected on one team member's computer, I am having some problems. I can only check items in or out through Bridge CS6. With both PS and Illustrator the "Check In" menu item is greyed out. Also, when I open a file in PS from the DAM, it doesn't automatically check the item. I've seen it work fine on a cowokers computer with a seemly similar setup. Any ideas?
Mac 10.7.5
PS CS6
Bridge CS6
Adobe Drive 4.2
CQ 5.5 and AEM 5.6 (same thing on both)
Thanks in advance!

In order for the Check In menu item to appear in the supported CS apps., the asset must be opened and a change must be made (it will then automatically be checked out).

Using Aperture with Adobe Bridge: Can It Work?

I have used all the Adobe apps for ages and love them.
Photoshop and Bridge are a mainstay of our studio operation here.
I have been using Adobe LightRoom lately to deal with my RAW shooting.
I take it to a certain point with LR then I use Bridge to do other things with my files. LR and Bridge can see eachother's metadata and XMP info so they can be opened back and forth between the apps as need be.
This is critical for our work process.
What Im wondering is can Aperture be used in a similar way?
Can Bridge see Aperture's adjustment info and visa versa?
Do they read eachother's Metadata and or XMP info?
Does Aperture even use XMP data?
Reason Im asking this is I admire Aperture's interface and functionality.
I'd like to possibly use it in place of LightRoom for dealing with my RAW files.
But without the compatibility with Bridge it wouldnt work for us.
I read lots of Mac and Adobe publications and have yet to see this issue addressed in any articles.
Surely other people are in the same boat as me on this one...
Anyone have any knowledge to share on this matter?
Thanks.

Bridge and LightRoom can see each other's image adjustments because they are using almost exactly the same engine to do RAW conversions. Aperture and Bridge won't understand each other's image adjustments, in just the same way that Bridge and Nikon Capture, Canon DPP, Bibble or Capture One etc. can't.
When it comes to metadata you won't be much better off, as any changes you made in Bridge wouldn't be seen in Aperture unless you re-imported the file and vice-versa.
Basically, if your workflow is based around Bridge you are stuck with Adobe apps as they are the only ones designed to work with it.

Using Peerjs with Adobe InDesign

Hy,
I'm creating my own InDesign PlugIn and I need to connect to another web application I created. I tried using socket.io, but I didn't want to have another server, so I have passed to Peer JS, in this way I have a peer to peer system that would work perfectly, but I met some unexpected problems.
I'm working with Adobe InDesign CC, that uses CEP5, which has support for google chrome BROWSER (CEF (Chromium extended framework )).
In the Docs it's said that CEP5 has support even for WebRTC but when I try to connect with peerjs (wich uses WebRTC) to another peer I get a :"TypeError: undefined is not a function", under further investigation I discovered that the error is thrown by Object.Negotiator._startPeerConnection, but I can't understand what I'm getting wrong...
I tried using the same PEER JS code in another application(just a normal web site) and connecting to the same peer and was successfull, so I'm guessing that the problem is the in WebRTC support provided by InDesign.
I am not confined to using PEER JS, I just want my adobe plugin and my site to communicate in the most intelligent way possible, so any idea is welcome, however this is the piece of code of my plugin where I try to connect to the PEERJS
    var peer = new Peer({key: mySecretKey});
    var conn = peer.connect('editor-vaComeVibraEEE');//the exception is     generated here
    conn.on('open', function(){
        conn.send('hi!');
Thank's for the help... . . .

I do know next to nothing about CEP5.
Just a question: Why do you try to escape "/" in the string "editor-vaCome\/ibraEEE" ?
At least this is my guess what you want to do here…
If you want to feed the argument string "editor-vaComet/ibraEEE" to peer.connect() you cannot "escape" that slash… At least not in terms of ExtendScript.

Using Uberconference with Adobe Connect

Hi Everyone
I have been beating my head against the ball trying to set up Uberconference to work with Adobe Connector.
I have tried to set it up as an Audio Provider -- but I just can't figure out how to set up the dial-in steps properly.
Has anyone out there used Uberconference -- or any other 3rd party audio conferencing provider -- successfully.
Help is much appreciated!

Using Bluetooth with Widcomm driver on PC

I know that NI states that they only support BT devices that work with Microsoft driver. I am creating a BT "Hands Free" device but the MS drivers don't support the required functionality. Is there any way to hook the LV BT functions into Widcomm driver? NI supports Widcomm for PDA so why not PC?
I would prefer not to have to develop app using MSVC but ...
Thanks.

The LabVIEW PDA Module supports Bluetooth communication on PDA devices
running Pocket PC 2003 or Windows Mobile 5.0 with the WIDCOMM Bluetooth
DLLs version 1.4 or later or the Microsoft Bluetooth driver. If
your PDA device has the WIDCOMM Bluetooth driver, you must install the
WIDCOMM Bluetooth DLLs.
Note: Do not install the WIDCOMM Bluetooth DLLs if you have the
Microsoft Bluetooth driver or you receive an error when you use the
Bluetooth VIs and functions.
Complete the following steps to install the WIDCOMM Bluetooth DLLs.
1. Connect to ActiveSync on the host computer.
2. On the host computer, run labview\PDA\Utilities\Bluetooth\setup.exe to install the DLLs on the PDA device.
You also can right-click the PDA target in the Project Explorer window
and select Install»Support for WIDCOMM Bluetooth from the shortcut menu.
Refer to readme.txt, located in the labview\PDA\Utilities\Bluetooth
directory, for more information about manually installing the WIDCOMM
Bluetooth DLLs.
All of the above information was copied from the LabVIEW PDA Module Help.

Using OS_ROLES with JDBC Driver

I can't get my JDBC connections to pick-up the OS ROLES I have configured. Does the OCI driver support OS Roles?
I'm using 10gR2 with latest JDBC drivers, running on Windows XP.
If I connect locally with sqlplus then the roles are established correctly. However, establishing the 'equivalent' connection from Java yields a user with no ROLEs defined, i.e. they are not being picked-up from the OS.
Is there a trick or is it not supported?
I believe I have the database and the OS groups setup correctly and, as I say, it works fine with a sqlplus connection.
If anyone either knows how to do, or knows that its not supported then please let me know.
Thanks,
Richard.

to my knowledge this is not supported in jdbc specification2.0 and 3.0 and jdbc drivers are complied to this standards.
connecting with sql client is entirely different with the connection using java thin drivers.
thanks,
Ruchir

Not Able To Use Acrobat With Updates

Hello,
When I slipstream all the quarterly updates through 9.5.5 into an original installation of Acrobat Pro 9 Extended which is version 9.0 the installer loads as version 9.5.5 and successfully installs Acrobat as a version 9.5.5 but when I open Acrobat and accept the license agreement I immediately receive a popup message that says the program is broke and cannot be used due to license discrepancies to reinstall it then when I click OK or terminate the process that generated the message Acrobat closes. If I install Acrobat as version 9.0 and manually apply the updates through 9.5.5 Acrobat works with no problems. Any assistance in helping me resolve the problem would be appreciated.
My reason for wanting to install version 9.0 as version 9.5.5 is I thought it might take up less space on my hard drive but it doesn't it still uses about 4.6GB of space which is significantly more than any other program on my computer. When I tried customizing the installation with the customization tool by selecting do not copy the installation files to the hard drive Acrobat still created over a gigabit of installer files in the installer folder in the Windows directory and created over a gigabit of update files in its folder under programs. Acrobat is quite a pig isn't it I am saddened to see that this is what hard drive space is being used for in world of larger hard drives. I would like to see programs like Acrobat function with 500 characters of code or less. That would be intuitive wouldn't it.
Sincerely,

I have never heard of slipstreaming the updates with the original install, only with updates themselves. I suspect that may be related in some sense, but just a guess.
