Using native document as a CDF file in placeholder

Hay all,
I am working with SSXA with Jdeveloper.
I have page template that include placeholder X.
I am mapping to my placeholder a native document (word file), As a result the word file has been showed in the placeholder position.
Shortly, my goal is to use word file as a CDF .
The problem is that the word file is shown fine in contributor mode(ctrl+shift+F5), but when i changed the mode to design mode(without ctrl+shift+F5) all the spaces(meaning " ") and some other characters in the word file have been changed to "?" character.
I can't understand the reason for this because it's work fine in contributor mode, and the problem begin when i changed to the regular mode.
Please, is there any one who can help me? it's very important and urgent for my project.

Hi Eran ,
I tested this on my SSXA site and see it as working fine .
Version details for the test are as follows :
UCM : 11gR1-11.1.1.5.0-idcprod1-111230T023314 (Build:7.3.2.182)
SSXA : 2011_11_30 (11.1.1.4.0) ($Rev: 4883$)
JDev Plugins loaded :
RIDC : 11.1.1.5.0.7546
WCM : 11.1.1.4.0.4883
Can you let me know if this is the same set of version which you are testing with .
These are the steps which I did :
1. Created page template and attached placeholder to it .
2. Launched the site from browser and there in went to contributor mode- Assign Content - Existing file from Server .
3. Selected a word document existing in ucm and Finish .
4. Go to Design mode and there did not see any "?" showing up .
5. Exit contributor mode and there too the content is displayed correctly .
Is there any step that I have missed out here .
Thanks

Using Examine Document Remove increases pdf file size !

Hi,
I have Adobe Acrobat Pro v9.3.0
I've been editing a lot of scanned .pdfs - rotating and cropping pages.
All this has previously worked fine with v8 but now I find that Acrobat 9 is increasing the .pdf file size after using Examine Document and clicking Remove
For example:
original file: 16,861 Kbytes
file after cropping 74 pages (from A4 to A5): 16,879 Kbytes
file after running Examine Document > Remove cropped metadata : 79,914 Kbytes !!!
With Acrobat 8 this process would normally have halved the file size.
Am I now doing something wrong ??
Thanks in advance.

Hello - This problem is still here !
Acrobat 9 Pro version 9.4.2
I've got a .pdf created by an agency (so not a scanned image) which I want to make as small as possible for emailing to hundreds of people (I'll attach it if possible somehow ?)
I open it up when it's 331Kb
Click Document > Examine Document
Check the Metadata and Deleted/Cropped items
Click Remove
Click File > Save As and hey presto, the new file with all that stuff supposedly removed is 2,588 Kb
Surely I'm not the only one who's bothered about .pdf file size ?

Hi Eran ,
Root cause for this issue :
In a windows based cluster environment intradoc.cfg had weblayout and vault pointing to the UNC path of the shared file system . This is a known bug / issue with the cluster environment where in indexer would fail .
Here too the same issue was causing the issue where in the files being checked in are failing to get indexed due to the UNC path set for weblayoutdir and vaultdir values in intradoc.cfg .
Solution :
Map the shared file system to a drive letter like Y:/weblayout and Y:/vault .
Use these values in weblayoutdir and vaultdir in intradoc.cfg and restart the server.
After the re-index the entire collection to resolve the issue .
Thanks

Retrieving documents using native applications

Dear
While retrieving content from content server, the content is usually launched as a web page or pdf files -regardless of the original native file-
Can ECM automatically launch the native application to enable viewing of any retrieved document? If the native application is not available on the workstation, the ECM then should ask the user to choose another application that could open the retrieved document.
Please advise

1. If the web viewable file is configured to be conversion to pdf using IBR then when the user clicks the web viewable link it will open a pdf.
2. If the user clicks on the native file the browser will ask open or save and if they select open it should spawn the OS to use the application mapped to the file format (has nothing to do with UCM at that point)
Things like the Search Results page are set up by default to use the WebViewable link mentioned in 1 above but can be changed to Native file if desired. Also IBR can be skipped and Native only file is what is passed through to the web location or only a single file can be saved if the UCM server is set up that way instead of the same Doc file in both Vault and Weblayout.
Does that answer your question?

I am using MS Office 2010 and Windows XP Professional, can I use iCloud for backup of my files and documents?

I am using MS Office 2010 and Windows XP Professional, can I use iCloud for backup of my files and documents? I am planning to transition to a Mac so using the iCloud seems to make the most sence.

No, it is not a backup method at all. If you delete a sync'd file on any device, you delete it permanently from iCloud. That by its very essence is not a backup solution therefore. A backup solution does not automatically and simultaneiously delete the file everywhere when it is deleted from the original source.
iCloud is strictly a syncronization tool for using files on multiple internet connected devices.

Unable to use B2B Document Editor tool to create guideline from data file

Does anyone successfully used the B2B Document Editor tool to generate the guideline doc from an HL7 data file ?
I attempted to use the SpecGenerator feature of this tool to create a guideline from the "a01.xml" sample file in the HL7 tutorials (came with the B2B installation" and the wizard kept on giving me "parsing errors" message below
"The data in the file could not be parsed. Please check the file to verify that it is valid and formatted correctly. This error can occur for one of the following reasons: A) The data file may be a Word document or have some other binary format. B) The envelope data may not be formatted properly. If this is an X12 data file, please verify that the ISA segment is the correct size (exactly 106 characters). If this is an EDIFACT data file, it must have either a UNA or begin with UNB. For other standards, verify that the envelope segments conform to the specified rules. C) The segment/record delimiters in the file are incorrect."
Any idea why ? I did not alter the sample file in anyway -- its format is exactly the same as when it was installed.
Any helps are appreciate !!

Hi,
I would suggest that you learn the B2B product starting with the HL7 tutorial. Start by importing the export files and follow the instructions to make the system work end to end.
Next, you want to configure for the HL7 tutorial manually using the ecs and xsd files provided in the HL7 tutorial directory. Again, ensure that the system work end to end after you have done the manual configuration.
Next, you create a new ecs and xsd file using the Document Editor from scratch and use them in your manual configuration. You can use the same doctype and version as in the tutorial so that you can be familiar with the Document Editor and at the end of this exercise, you know you have done things properly if the system works end to end. The documentation for Document Editor is mainly in the Windows Help section.
After the incremental steps above, you will have the knowledge to implement the document type and version of your project. Going straight into the requirements in your project makes it difficult to debug because they are too many moving parts.
Hope this helps,

Save each page of a multi-page document as a separate file using spawned file names with javascript

Hello
We are currently changing our hard-copy personnel files and converting them to pdf files. We have scanned the entire file into one multi-page document.
I am wanting to save each page (or groups of pages) as separate files.
In order to facilitate this, I have duplicated field names--such as FirstName, LastName, EmpNo on each page. This information should be static for the entire file.
However--I also need information that will change for each individual "page" or document--such as TypeOfDoc, Date, etc. I have used the Spawn fields using the overlay method on each of the pages in the document. Then I went in and filled in the information for each page of the document--such as TypeOfDoc, DateOfDoc.
Now I want to save each page of the document as a separate file using the field names as the file name.
I first created an action that would split all the pages into separate files and save them into a folder.
Then I want to save each file as a specific file name based on the information in the fields.
My problem is obtaining the name of the spawned field name. The rest of the field names I am not having a problem with.
This is what I have so far to name the file.
// Get the field value
var oPage = this.pageNum;
var fn = getField("P" + oPage + ".TEMPLATE.DateOfDoc").valueAsString + getField("FirstName").valueAsString + "-" + getField("LastName").valueAsString;
// Specify the folder
var fldr = "/n/Personnel/ScannedDocuments/NAMEDPAAS/";
// Determine the full path
var fp = fldr + fn +".pdf";
// Save the file
myTrustedSpecialTaskFunc(this, fp);
This code is also accompanied with folder level scripts.
My problem is obtaining the name of the spawned fields using javascript. Each document has several pages--so I would like to obtain the field name through script.
I receive the following error.
TypeError: getField("P" + oPage + ".TEMPLATE.DATE") is null
I think this is due to the fact that I have extracted all the pages as individual files.
If I were to do the above, but not extract the pages first--I do not know how to just save one page at a time.
Please help. This is a massive project, and if we have to save each file individually, it will take a lot of time.
I am a beginner, so any assistance is appreciated.
Thank you

I am not understanding exactly where to put the curly brackets. I have tried two different ways, and still get the same error.
This is one way
var oPage = this.pageNum;
// Specify the folder
var fldr = "/n/Personnel/ScannedDocuments/NAMEDPAAS/";
// Determine the full path
var fp = fldr + fn +".pdf";
for (var i = 0; i < this.numPages; i++)
var fn = getField("P" + oPage + ".template.DateOfDoc").valueAsString + getField("FirstName").valueAsString + "-" + getField("LastName").valueAsString;
{this.extractPages({
nStart: i,
cPath : fldr + fn + ".pdf"
The other is this
var oPage = this.pageNum;
// Specify the folder
var fldr = "/n/Personnel/ScannedDocuments/NAMEDPAAS/";
// Determine the full path
var fp = fldr + fn +".pdf";
for (var i = 0; i < this.numPages; i++)
var fn = getField("P" + oPage + ".template.DateOfDoc").valueAsString + getField("FirstName").valueAsString + "-" + getField("LastName").valueAsString;
this.extractPages({
nStart: i,
cPath : fldr + fn + ".pdf"
Thank you for your help.

What is the promper format of files using the Document step in UCCX 8

Hello all,
I am working a script that is using the document steps in the script editor.
The script will allow the user to call in and turn a greeting on and off
I have a few sample scripts from version 5 and 7 and do this but I am on verions 8.0 and can't seem to figure out the document step
in the old verison of the script editor you put in the full windows path where the document is stored.
How is this done in the linux version?
I have tried the following
"filename.xml"
"filename"
"/filename.xml"
"filename"
/filename
/en_US/filename.xml
none seem to work. when i do a debug on the script it says the file does not exist.
how do i need to list the filename in the create and write document steps.
if anyone has a script i could use that is version 8 that would be great as well!
thanks!
Ken

I assume you're referring to the Write Document step?
That step writes directly to the filesystem, in the appliance version (8.x+) you can only write to a specific directory on the file system, which you can get from:
System.getProperty(“uccx.customer.dir”)
However, I believe these are deleted after some time and are not really suitable for long term storage. If you have a HA cluster this is certainly not going to work.
Assuming so, your next option is to use the Documents subsystem which works something like this:
User authUser
authUser = Get User (User ID: myUsersName)
- Success:
     Authenticate User Password (User: authUser, Password: myUsersPassword)
     - Success:
          Upload Document (Language: en_US, Name: fileName, Document: dataToWrite, User: authUser)
          - Success:
               /* document uploaded without issue */
You can then read from that file via
Document doc = DOC["en_US\" + fileName]
Something like that should work.

I understand that when using Numbers/Pages - an up-arrow on a document means that the file is still to be uploaded to the cloud, what does a down arrow mean? It seems the document can't be accessed until the arrow clears.

I understand that when using Numbers/Pages - an up-arrow on a document means that the file is still to be uploaded to the cloud, what does a down arrow mean? It seems the document can't be accessed until the arrow clears.

I believe what it's supposed to mean is that some changes were made to the document on another device, and those changes were saved back to the cloud. Now you've opened iWork on a different device to access that document - it compares the document you've got locally with the one in the could, sees some recent changes and downloads them.
What gets me is why this sometimes happens even when I've not made any changes to a document from another device.

When using Quite Imposing Plus the resulting file is only given a Temp name which will be sent as the document name.

Our company has recently upgraded form Acrobat Professional 8 to Acrobat professional XI. We also use the Quite Imposing Plus plug-in in both versions. Now when using Quite Imposing Plus the resulting file is only given a Temp name which will be sent as the document name to the printer unless the imposed document is first saved. This was not the case in Acrobat Professional 8. I have attached a screen shots that shows an example.
Is there any reason why this is happening and how can we stop it.

Thank you for your advice although I think you may be incorrect as the naming of the documents made with Quite Imposing is correct in Acrobat 8.
After reading the comment below it would seem something has changed from version nine onwards.
Going forward we plan on changing the way we save and send our imposed documents to print but thank you for your time.

disaster, thanks firefox 1 year of photos lost

Thanks for the obvious question. I mean it. The very same thought came to me this morning and, sure enough, I had booted into another drive--my old one that, of course, had the old desktop, etc.
It didn't dawn on me that this was the case since I hadn't set it as a boot drive but I guess in the course of all the restarts I did, it got switched.
I'm back to normal again.

I received an email containing a spreadsheet created using Mac Office 2004 on my new MacBook Air equipped with Mac Office 2011. When I saved the document, my Finder lists the document without the .xls file extension. Why?

I received an email containing a spreadsheet created using Mac Office 2004 on my new MacBook Air equipped with Mac Office 2011. When I saved the document, my Finder lists the document without the .xls file extension. Why?
All other .xls documents created by Mac Office 2004 retained the .xls file extention when I migrated them over to the new MacBook Air.

I know what happened. When I saved the document I somehow hit the Hide File Extension box. Sorry to trouble this group. I simply resaved it w/o activating the Hide File Extension feature.

Getting Canon 4770 to scan multipages into a PDF file while using the document feeder

Hi All
I'm new to this forum. So if I break any rules with my questions below, kindly forgive me.
But my questions are about my Canon MF4770 printer.
1. Why can't I used the document feeder to scan multiple pages into one PDF file?
2. Why do I have to constantly select the remote scanner option when the printer is connected to my computer?
Any help I can get will be very appreciated.
Starlene

Hi Starlene and welcome to the Canon forum,
The ability to scan multi-page documents can depend on your operating system and version, and if the scanning software being used supports the feature. However, the MF Toolbox application that accompanies your laser product offers this option when scanning via a USB connection to your computer.
For example, if you are using Windows, below are the steps that would be performed:
1. Place documents.
Note: Up to 35 documents can be loaded in the feeder. Be sure to fan the stack, place it face up, and align the document guides to the width of document.
2. Press [SCAN].
3. Press [^] or [v] to highlight <Remote Scanner>, and then press [OK].
The machine is now waiting to be scanned.
4. Double-click the [Canon MF Toolbox 4.9] icon on the desktop.
The MF Toolbox starts.
5. Click [PDF].
Select [PDF (Multiple Pages)] in [Save as Type].
7. Specify the required settings as needed and click [PDF Settings].
The [PDF Settings] dialog box appears.
8. Specify the required settings as needed and click [OK]:
[Create Searchable PDF] Converts the characters in the document to text data and makes the PDF document searchable with keywords.
[Text Language] Select the language of the text to be scanned. The characters may be recognized more accurately if you select [English] from the drop-down list and set [Image Quality] to [300 dpi] or higher in [Scanner Settings].
[PDF Compression] Select [High] for color images such as photos or illustrations to reduce file sizes.
9. Click [Start].
Note:
A folder with the scanning date will be created in the [MY PICTURES] folder in the [MY DOCUMENTS] folder, and your document will be saved in this folder. If there is no [MY PICTURES] folder, the folder with the scanning date will be created in the [MY DOCUMENTS] folder and your document saved in this folder.
For text documents or black-and-white documents, it is recommended you select either [BLACK and WHITE] or [GRAYSCALE] in [SCAN MODE].
If making a Multiple PDF with color documents ([IMAGE QUALITY] set to [300 dpi]), it is recommended that the PDF have fewer than 20 pages.
The MF toolbox can be loaded from your software CD or downloaded here from the "Drivers & Software" tab on the Canon USA website.
I can understand some confusion on having to select "Remote Scanner" when you have a direct computer connection to your product. The reason for this is that first, the "Remote Scanner" mode refers to seeing your computer as a stand alone, or remote, device; however, the "Computer" scanning mode option allows you to select which computer will be performing a scan when doing so over a network (Max: up to 10 computers).
Another reason for having to select the scan mode is that the selection is not programmed but selected based on the type of scan you will be performing at the time.

Word cannot open this document. The document might be in use, the document might not be a valid Word document, or the file name might contain invalid characters (for example,\ /).

I recently upgraded to a new Macbook Air running Lion, from my 2007 white Macbook running Snow Leopard. I had Office for Mac 2004 on the 2007, but had to upgrade to Office for Mac 2011 to be compatible with Lion on the Air. Now when I try to open my documents on the Air that were saved under Office 2004 on the old computer, I get the following message: Word cannot open this document. The document might be in use, the document might not be a valid Word document, or the file name might contain invalid characters (for example,\ /).
Any suggestions? Thank you.

Ha,ha,ha.....I figured it out. But for anyone else who's having this problem, it seems that while Office 2004 allowed dates in this format: 00/00/00, Office 2011 doesn't like it at all. I just changed the format in the document names to 00-00-00 and all is well. Documents are opening beautifully!
