Using Actions in Acrobat 10

Hello
Im using an action to sanitize a document, i select my start folder and then my save to folder.
This works fine but leaves the orignal in the start folder.
Is there a way to delete or move the Original PDF from the strat Folder?
By the use of an execute javascript, perhaps?
Thanks

Sorry one last thing, is there a way of supressing the close button at end of the Action?
Im unable to see an option for this
Thanks

How to capture an image and save it using action script

Hello,
I need to know if is posible to capture an image or a screen region and save it using action scrip.
Somebody know how to do it ??
Thanks

you can capture an image using the bitmapdata class and getPixel(). you can then save that to a bitmap using server-side code like php.

I am using the Adobe Acrobat Reader on a mac and I followed all the directions to copy an image but when I press paste only half of the image appears or it appears as an empty square. What can I do to fix this?

Hello,
I would like to inform you that not all the browsers and online PDF readers support copying text from a PDF. If you have opened the PDF online, please download PDF file to your computer and then open the file in Adobe Reader.
Please share a screenshot if the issue still persists.

Sending an email using action in complaint transaction

Hi,
I am using complaint transaction. I want to send an email to employee responsible. Initially I create and save the complaint transaction. After saving it, i open the transaction again and change the employee responsible at that time the email should go to new employee responsible.
Can you please the list of steps to be followed.
Thanks

Hi Vinay,
You can use action defintions to send emails to your employee responsible.
for that pls check action profile 'Order_Messages' and within this, action definition
'ORDER_CONFIRMATION'.
Check in there. Partner funtion is assigned to it, in second level customizing and smart form to be mailed in third level customizing.
Prerequisite: emails should be maintained in BP master.
For your requirement you can do following settings:
In second level customizing(i.e. selecting the action definition and double click on the same)
Enter the partner funtion of Emp. responsible. in 'Partner Determination for the Action' Details. and check 'Partner Dependent'.
Secondly, in details for 'Action Determination and Action Merging' in 'Action Merging' details select 'Max. 1 Unprocessed Action for Each Action Definition.
Save the settings.
Schedule the actions using action scheduling.

How to use Action/Input maps

It seems to me that the move to sharing actions menus, buttons, and other components is a logical one, given that it is desirable to have all references to the action reflect its enabled state.
The question that arises is: which ActionMap object to use as the central store? Do you create your own and pass it on somewhere?
And, if you try to do anything with homegrown InputMaps then the components stop seeing the events. I wish there was a definitive YOU MUST DO IT THIS WAY tutorial.
Why is there no factory API that can create UI components pre-attached to actions and with accelerators or mnemonics already set? Then we would not need to write half the code we do now. My solution:
public class ComponentFactory {
   ActionMap myMap;
   public ComponentFactory(ActionMap map) {
      myMap = map;
   public JButton createButton(String actioncommand) {
       Action a = myMap.get(actioncommand)
       if(a==null)
          return null;
       return new JButton(a);
   public JMenuItem createMenuItem(String actioncommand) {
    // etc...
   public void setAction(Action a) {
       myMap.put(a.getValue(ACTION_COMMAND_KEY),a);
   public void setEnabled(String actioncommand, boolean state) {
       Action a = myMap.get(actioncommand);
       if(a!=null)
           a.setEnabled(state);
}Is there any concensus as to the best way to handle ActionMaps/InputMaps?

Hugh,
>
The tutorial is a touch short on this subject, whilst
it is good on how to create and use actions with
toolbars and the like, the section on InputMaps and
ActionMaps is far too brief to get the wider picture.
The API docs on the same is about one paragraph's
worth.okay, I just checked the tutorial - it's a bit short on the inputMap/actionMap indeed.
>
You are mixing up two different issues:
a) customize a button with an action
b) bind a keyStroke to an action for an arbitrary
jComponent
a) has nothing to do with b)If b) has nothing to do with a) why have MNEMONIC_KEY
and ACCELERATOR_KEY on the action?Hmm... where do you see a contradiction to my statement? Those keys are part of a) as they are used for customization of the AbstractButtons: the button's mnenmonic/accelerator properties are set to the corresponding values of the action. This propertyChange triggers an update of the keyBinding to the button's "pressed"/"doClick" actions as registered in the actionMap. They are never used (at least not internally by Swing) for b)
Historically the action is older than the inputMap/actionMap: basically it's an ActionListener (which is more or less a command pattern) plus some (view) state. This "plus" was designed right in the beginning of Swing for a) to enable state sharing between different "buttons" but not really integrated until version 1.4. parallel to that the need for a general mechanism of binding between keyStrokes and "commands" became obvious and inputMap/actionMap were introduced in 1.3. The only action state that's needed for this mechanism to work is the enabled property. All values are ignored - so currently they somehow appear to be overloaded in the context of the inputMap/actionMap. Personally I think they are very powerful because of this extra flexibility.

There is still not a single diagram; and I maintain
that it is less than useful to beginners who are not
familiar with the terminology used. Well, IMO diagrams are not everything - I still think it much easier to understand than the dnd spec or the focus spec f.i.
>
you are free to use whatever object you want as akey
- write a utility method to use the name, if feellike
doeing so. There is nothing in the framework that
would single out the name as "the" key to use, The keybindings document specifically states:
"New actions can be added to a component equally
easily."
"The conventional key for an action is it's
name." If there is a conventional way then it
should be encouraged with an appropriate API. I get your point. And I definitely agree on following a convention if there is one. Except when the convention is quite immature (to formulate mildly) - and not even followed by Swing internally: most of the default actions registered in the actionMap don't even have a name, the binding is done by string literals ... duplicated in at least two places: the XXLookAndFeel and the ui-delegates.

SSRS 2008 R2 - Using Action to call a report with MultiValue Parameters

I have a report uses project names as parameter(Multi value) and display some data. I want to call this report from some other report on a click (drill down). This report has a program row where it aggregates the data, underneath Programs, I have
list of projects(group). When I use Action on the individual projects, it takes me to the appropriate project ( I used
Fields!ProjectName.Value). However, when user clicks on the program, it should pass the group of projects within that program to the called report. With expression, Fields!ProjectName.Value, it only select one random project (may be first/last from
the query) and display records. I tried Join(Fields!ProjectName.Value, ",") and Fields!ProjectName.Value(0) but now it doesn't select a sengle project. Can someone help please?

Using action script 2 how can i send a variable value to a dynamic textbox on a different keyframe?

using action script 2 how can i send a variable value to a dynamic textbox on a different keyframe?

Thanks for your swift response.
That sounds like a good solution, but the code I have on frame 2 is this
timer = 0;
countup = function(){
timer++;
countupInterval = setInterval(countup,100);
If I added the same actionscript to frame 3 which has a dynamic textbox with a variable timer attached wouldn't it just put the timer back to 0? What I want is the last known value that was given when it was in frame 2.
I am thinking of temple run here, I am trying to caculate the total distance(set in the timer variable) from the previous try.
Hope this makes sense.

I am using CC adobe Acrobat to combine multiple pdfs and add page numbers. Mac users can no longer read the page numbers but pc users can.

I am using CC adobe Acrobat to combine multiple pdfs and add page numbers. As of about 2 weeks ago the mac users can no longer read the page numbers they get a font error message and see only -- where the page information should be. The pc users do not have this same problem. When I replace our regular font (URW Grotesk) with a system font (Verdana) everyone is able to read the page numbers. This is a new issues, I have been creating these documents in the same way for years without a problem. I have been on hold and on and off calls for the last two hours, I keep getting hung up on once I find someone in adobe support to talk to!

Hi KnoopL,
Are the Mac users using Preview to view the pdfs or Adobe Reader?

Using actions in Photoshop Elements from App store.

I have Photoshop Elements 10 that I downloaded from the app store - can I use actions in it? Having trouble installing them on my mac and was wonding if it was something I was doing wrong or if it wasn't even possible. Thanks!

Well, first of all, the only time I would consider buying the app store version is if you have a lot of macs you need to install it on. Otherwise, I would buy the regular retail version. While you can use your apple ID to qualify for upgrade pricing where it asks for a serial number, it's smarter just to shop around for the full version, which is usually much cheaper than adobe's upgrade price if you look around at online retailers and big box stores.
EDIT One other problem with the app store version is that you can no longer reinstall it once a new version is out in the app store. Adobe does make downloads of older versions available, but they all require a standard serial number, so the app store info won't work.

How do I retain a PDF form widget's design when setting its value using Javacript in Acrobat?

I've been experimenting with interactive PDF forms in InDesign and JS in Acrobat. I think I've encountered something that might be a bug: widget design is overriden when using Javascript to set the field's value in Acrobat. Here's what a checkbox, for example, should look like when checked:
However performing:
var f = this.getField("Checkbox");
f.value = "Yes";
in the JS Console results in the widget's appearance defaulting to acrobat's:
I've tried every single widget property documented in Acrobat's Javascript API Reference to no avail. Initially, checking/unchecking using the mouse works fine. Once the value has been set using JS, Acrobat's default black check character is used for all subsequent toggling, including when using the mouse...
How does InDesign export interactive PDFs with custom icons for widgets? Is there any way to enforce the use of those icons using JS in Acrobat Pro? What's the difference between selecting a checkbox or a radio button using the mouse and setting its value using JS?

I thought it might be the case, too, but all widgets have the same properties both before and after setting the value with JS. I did this check using all documented properties in Acrobat JS Reference in an attempt to figure out what might be going on.
By the way, I don't think Indesign necessarily uses glyphs for the checked state of widgets, although in this case a glyph is used (albeit with different stroke and fill colours for the glyph, acrobat doesn't allow setting these properties AFAIK). With Indesign CS6 it seems you can practically use any Indesign tool to design the widget's On and Off states. So I'm thinking that maybe Indesign exports these with button-like properties where there are no restrictions on appearance (I think there is an "icon" property/object for buttons or something like that). However Acrobat treats them as checkboxes, so if that is the case it is more of a hack. Is there a way to probe an object's various properties other than using JS or the properties pop-up dialog?

Using Actions to SaveForWeb: Unable to keep file name

ENVIRONMENT:
start with an AI document, saved as an eps.
I have Actions to format the graphic. (one layer)
GOAL:
Am trying to automate a Save For Web, resize and KEEP THE FILE NAME, with only the file TYPE changing.
PROBLEM:
I wrote an Action specifying a particular folder to save the jpg to. If i run the Action it will default to the name it was originally saved with. For example, one.eps will save as one.jpg. two.eps will save as one.jpg.
If i delete or rename the folder, the file name will default to the FOLDER NAME. For example one.eps will save as "ExportFolder.jpg"
MY QUESTION:
Does anyone know how to make it keep the file name of the individual file? or any other tips on using Actions to export.
Thanks.

How do I make Safari open PDF's using installed Adobe Acrobat 7.1.0

I would like to force Safari 3.1.2 to open all PDF links using Adobe Acrobat 7.1.0. How do I accomplish this? I have no problem making Safari use the Adobe Reader, however, I would like to use the full Adobe Program so I can save and download interactive PDF forms I have filled out on the web. Using the Adobe reader, you can only download the form itself - all supplied information using the form's interactive features are lost when the filled in form is downloaded.

Hello, Carolyn:
Thank you for your suggestions. Unfortunately, it is not working for me. I have both Adobe Acrobat v. 7.1.0 and Acrobat Reader v. 9.0.0 running on my computer. In either program's preferences both programs are availabe when I choose the program to display PDF files in the browser (Safari). There is no problem setting Safari's PDF handling to the default value.
When I choose Acrobat Reader to be the program to display PDF files in the browser, Safari will indeed use Acrobat Reader. However, when I choose Adobe Acrobat v. 7.1.0, Safari does not use the Adobe Acrobat program to display the PDF file, rather the file is displayed by the PDF handling features built in to Safari. I have found no way to make Safari use the full version of Adobe Acrobat. PDF files residing on my computer opens without difficulty using my copy of Adobe Acrobat v. 7.1.0. Do you have any other ideas that would help solve this problem?
