Visio and MS Project error
I am evaluating LiveCycle ES Version 8.01 for document conversion to PDF. I am only interested in the PDF Generator product of the LiveCycle suite. I need to convert MS office documents including Visio diagrams and MS Project files. I have Visio and Project installed on my server. When I try to convert a Visio document to .pdf I get the following error:
ALC-PDG-1023-000: com.adobe.livecycle.generatepdf.client.ConversionException: ALC-PDG-001-023-An error occurred while launching Microsoft Visio. Please check whether Microsoft Visio is installed on the server."
Visio is definitely installed. In desparation I put the path to the .exe in the PATH environment variable and created a Visio_PATH variable. Still no luck.
My second problem is converting MS Project files. When I try these files I get the following error: Reason of failure is-----Invocation error.
Invocation error.
ALC-PDG-010-015-The conversion operation timed out before it could be completed. Please report this error to the system administrator.
ALC-DSC-003-000: com.adobe.idp.dsc.DSCInvocationException: Invocation error.
In doing some straw grasping research, I changed the Initial Heap Size and the Max Heap Size to 0. Any suggestions for either of these issues?
Hi
I have a microsoft Project file that I'm trying to print to a PDF. MS Project is version 2003 w sp3. I have Adobe Acrobat v 7 installed also. The problem arises when the pdf is created in ARCH D size (36x24 size).
When the pdf doc is displayed, fonts are missing on the upper right side of the doc (timeline display), and the right side or the end of the gantt display bars. The same fonts appear throughout the rest of the document. What's a planner to do to solve this problem?
Thanks
Tim

WBS Modeler for MS Visio and MS Project
I am trying to get WBS Modeler to work with MS Project 2010 and MS Visio 2010. It appears I am missing the adodb.dll from the installation. How do I correct this matter?
In short, the WBS modeler Tab does not show up in MS Visio top ribbon. Visio displays the WBS modeler Add-In but as a folder but once I select the create button, I do not have the opportunity to select it as an option at the top of the ribbon.
Files(x86)/Visio Add-In for WBS Modeler/adodb.dll did not succeed.Hi,
Before you install “WBS Modeler add-in for Visio 2010”, these system requirements should be met:
1.Visio Professional 2010 or Visio Premium 2010,
2.Microsoft Office Project 2003 Service Pack (SP) 1 or later
3.Microsoft .NET Framework 4.0.
http://www.microsoft.com/en-hk/download/details.aspx?id=26229
Then you need to enable the WBS Modeler add-in.
1.Start Visio, and click File > Option > Add-in.
2.On the Add-Ins tab click on the Go button at the bottom to manage the list of COM Add-ins.
3.In the list of installed COM Add-ins check ‘WBSModeller.Connect’ and click on the OK button.
Note: If you get an error after you click the OK button you may need to reinstall the WBS Modeler add-in. Based on the installation options you may need administrator rights on the machine.
4. Close Visio and restart Visio.

Opening/storing Visio and MS Project Files
We are using Teeming for a small team shared across two sites. They want to store and use Vision and MS Project files.
Using standard MS Office documents seems to work fine, access via Teeming works as expected.
When opening Visio or Project files, they have to 'download' the file first, make changes and resave the document back up into Teeming. Not so smooth.
Is this a restriction of Teeming? Can we get this to work as other Office docs?
Teeming is V2.0 on SLES.

Office 2013 with Visio and Project Error - Package manifest is invalid
In July I successfully created an App-V install of Office 2013 VL using the ODT. This week I decided to try just doing Visio as we don't install it or Project on all systems. I used my same customconfig.xml and just changed the ProPlusVolume to VisioProVolume
and changed the source path. Everything downloaded and packaged fine. I was able to import into SCCM just fine and create a deployment to my test collection. However when I run the install out of Software Center I get (as part of a much longer error) the message
in AppEnforce.log that the package manifest is invalid. Thinking that maybe I had to include Office as long with Visio I tried packaing all three items but still get the same error. Has anyone else seen this behavior and/or ideas how to fix it? Can I sequence
just Visio or just Project? I'm including my config.xml just in case I've got something wrong with it that I haven't caught. Thanks

I'm trying to create na app-v package (v.5 SP2) of Office 2013.
I downloaded the Office Deployment Tool for Click-to-Run from here:
http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=36778
I installed it into C:\Office2013pck shared that folder as
\\APPVMANAGER\Office2013 and mapped as Z:\.
I changed the configuration.xml file to:

Then I ran in na elevated cmd:

and

\\APPV-CL-WIN7DEF\Office2013\configuration.xml
\\APPV-CL-WIN7DEF\Office2013\Appv
Everything seemed to work fine.
The creted folder had Office\Data\15.0.4649.1001 folder (I guessed this is a version number)
When I tried to add the package to App-V Server (in the Console) I get the following error:
An unexpected error occurred while retrieving AppV package manifest. Windows error code: 1465 - Windows was unable to parse the requested XML data.
I tryied to publish it from powershell, getting the same error message agalluci image post shows.
From the Event Log I got this additional information:
There was a problem retrieving the requested package \\APPVMANAGER\AppVpck\Office\VisioProVolume_ProPlusVolume_en-us_x86.appv for import. Error message: Unspecified error

I haven't found any indication of which file is the manifest app-v file.
I also haven't found any .xml with the "UsedKnownFolders" tag (I changed the .appv package extension to .zip and explored some of the files).
I tryied creating a package for 32 and 64 bits, only office, office and visio, and office visio and project running Windos 7 and Windows 2012.

Need to deploy both Visio and Project 2010 by GPO
I'm looking for a way to deploy Visio and Project 2010 to selected users without SCCM.
I tried a logon script based on the one Microsoft posted as a sample in Technet and it worked for some users, but is unreliable. When the users need both Visio and Project, it would error out because it says 2 setup files can't run at the same time.
So, I set a GPO for logon scripts to run synchronously and it worked for some users, but others would get a black screen at logon that would hang forever. Seems to me this is UAC interference with no UAC prompt being popped up. When the script
was disabled, they could log on normally.
I thought of startup scripts, but that does not show the user that the software is installing, so they think their computer is stuck booting.
What are solutions?This is the login script I'm using for Visio 2010. I just substitute the work Visio for Project to make a login script for Visio.
It works but the part where it is supposed to recognize that the product is already installed and not install again doesn't work. can you see an error or other reason why?

SCCM 2012 R2 Reports not activate Value button and not showing Visio and Project products
Hello,
I have experiencing some problems with SCCM reports
1) In some of the reports the "Values" button is disabled and because of that I can not select the name of a specific computer, the reports I've noticed that are relating to Specific Computers
2) The other problem is that when reviewing a software inventory report on a specific computer, Visio nor the Project of Microsoft Office does not appear , which itself can be seen from the Resource Browser
I will appreciate it very much to help me to solve these drawbacks presented in the reports of SCCM 2012 R2.
Thanks in advance.
Manuel
Manuel´s Microsoft Forums Threadsopen the report in the report builder tool (in the console, right click and edit. From the reports web page you can click the drop down and choose open with report builder) and examine the query that is being used to populate the computername
values list. You should be able to run that query from the report builder utility to see if anything is being returned. For the report you mention, there is no query to bring back computer names. In report builder, in the left hand menu, open the parameters
folder, then right click @variable from the list and open the properties. Go to the available values item in the menu of the properties window and notice that the available values is set to none, not get values from a query. That is why you can't click on
Values in the SSRS report and get a list of computer Names. You could add a query into the report and save the report if you really want a drop down list of all computer names. I would save the report with a different name if I were to take that approach,
it is not a good practice to modify the built in reports.
Regarding the applications you are not seeing, you will have to look at the query contained in the report, and determine if that query is targeting the same view or data that you were looking at using resource explorer. Which category within resource
explorer were you seeing the information you were expecting to see in this report? You can use report builder to see that the report you are looking at is calling a function to return the software titles, and that function looks to be based on the v_gs_softwareproduct
view. If you were looking at software files or add/remove programs within the resource viewer, you won't necessarily see the same information in the report, since the report is reading a different view.
I hope this info will help you to troubleshoot report quirks. SCCM 2012 reporting is a world apart from SCCM 2007 reporting. There are alot more stored procedures and functions used in SCCM 2012, and even a dll file on the reporting point that is required
for some (most) of the reports! -

Viso only runs under Windows, so you'd first have to install Windows, either using Boot Camp or a virtual machine, then purchase Viso. Or, you can purchase this to deal with Viso files:

After moving an entire client folder from an external hard drive to an internal one, the client's video, created in adobe premiere elements 10, will no longer open in adobe premiere elements 10. It appears to be loading the project, and instead of completing, the following error message is displayed: "The project is not compatible with current version of Premiere Elements."
The same thing occurs when attempting to open the archive files.
New projects, and unmoved projects behave properly.
Moved projects receive this error.
I'm running Windows 7 Home Premium SP1 on a solid state drive (SSD) (c:/), where premiere elements is installed
My documents, including the project I need to work with are on my "storage" drive (HDD). it is (f:/)txnoda
Archiving Aspects of this.....
First let clear the matter of the "archiving" as a life saver.... We do not appear to be on the same wave length.
a. I am talking about File Menu/Project Archiver with its Archive project and Copy project options. This feature is a safety net to save you when you
inadvertently disconnect source media from the project file. With the Archive option (Trimmed Folder result), you get saved to the computer hard drive (safe keeping) a copy of the project file plus copies of the media that were taken to the Timeline. With the Copy option (Copied Folder result), you get copy of the project files plus copies of much more.
b. Instead, you appear to be talking about "archiving" in the context of AutoSaves. AutoSaves are saved snapshots of the project at various phases of the edit. They suffer from the same shortcomings of the original project that has been disconnected from its source media.
When you import media into a project, all you get are copies of the originals in the project. But, those copies need to trace back to originals at the locations where they were when first imported into the project. Moving, renaming, deleting files/folders that went into the project after the project save close leads to some very time consuming messy situations.
What to do....
If you can, put everything back the way it was. If not.....
Let me emphasis some factors..
You wrote

It appears to be loading the project, and instead of completing, the following error message is displayed: "The project is not compatible with current version of Premiere Elements."
Here you mention specifically "client's video". Later you detail with .mod files converted to .avi. What kind of .avi? If you have converted to AVCHD.avi or H.264.avi, they have been found not to be compatible with Premiere Elements. You should not be able to import them into any new or old project.
From what you described, I am envisioning
"Video" Folder
which contains 2 folders named
"Timestamped Folder" with .avi files
and
"DVD" Folder with the project file (project.prel)
The project file has many files generated automatically in the course of it workflow. Where do you have them going?
(See Premiere Elements 10 Edit Menu/Preferences/Scratch Discs). If you have the Scratch Discs directed
"Same As Project", then we would expect all those files to be going to the DVD Folder in the above scenario.
If we could open the project and get greeted with some "Where is the file.....?" messages, that might give us some hope.
But that is not the case.
Consequently from what you have said, I am suggesting that the path of least resistance is try to recreate the "before".
Please review and consider.

PE8 and Encoding/Burning Error: Unknown Error:2131042562
Hello all:
I'm new to the forum and came across an issue. I had initially responded to an old post but at the direction of a couple veterans they guided me into doing a fresh post and to provide a lot more detail up front (thank you Bill & Steve). I apologize if I get too wordy everyone. Here it goes:
The end result is that I started working on a big project and when selecting "share" I'd burn to a DVD. It would go through all the processes of encoding and on the final step towards the end Premiere would give me the following message: Unknown Error: 2131042562. However a couple times it appeared I got further in which it would say it was burning to disc and then my system would reboot. Hard to say for sure what state it was at because I'd typically miss the reboot due to length of encoding process. To provide a little history, I suspected my system was infected a few months ago so I decided to rebuild and in the process upgrade the OS. I was running Windows 7 Home Premium, 64-bit. I ended up doing a low-level format and installed Windows 7 Ultimate 64-bit. Followed the rebuild to a "T" plus have an IT background and have been building PCs for many years. Prior to rebuild I didn't appear to have a problem and burning discs from within PE worked. This is first attempt to burn disc through PE since the rebuild. Everything looks fine with latest drivers installed and installed in the order that Dell documents. Enough of that and let me get to PC spec's and the project details.
Dell XPS 8100
Windows 7 Ultimate 64bit
Intel i7-860 2.8GHz Quad Core
8GB RAM
Intel SATA RAID Controller - 3400 Series
2 x Seagate Barracuda 750GB HDD, 7200RPM SATA 32MB Cache (ST3750528AS) in RAID1 Configuration
Single partition, C:\ Drive, with 597GB free (probably not optimal for performance)
NVidia GeForce GTS 240 Display Adapter
DVD/BLURAY Combo burner: HLDS BH30N (can burn bluray) - running latest firmware A103
Pagefile: System Managed; min 16MB, recommended 12226MB, currently allocated 8151MB
Video camera used: JVC Z-HD300AU (Full HD 1920x1080; AVCHD)
Project:
Basically putting together a dance team video for my daughter's end of season banquet. It's a compilation of both mine and another person's video. I used my camera and the other individual's was also a JVC but not High Def.
Timeline - Just over 38 minutes
Settings; NTSC --> AVCHD-->Full HD 1080i 30 5.1 Channel
Intro was a "Universal Studios" intro that I found on the internet-->MPEG-4 Movie
Had 3 PE title screens with some effects and seperate audio playing a .m4a song
From there probably a total of 9 video clips consisting of other person's video--> .MOD file extension
Then has 20 photos with title screen with the girls with both the photo and names fading in/out.
During slideshow I had another audio soundtrack playing in background--> .m4a
Then came another 20 video clips mostly from my camera --> .MTS file extension
Throughput the video I either used some fade in/out between video clips or used some of PE's transitions
What I've done for testing:
- I tested the burner and burned a data disc with Roxio without issue.
- I created a new project using same NTSC settings. I first only took .MOD files and tried ripping and then tried it again with only using some of my clips (.MTS). Both were unsuccessful.
- I then changed NTSC format and install of Full HD I just select "HD 1080i 30 5.1 Channel". Again just creating a much smaller project with the steps prior and still no luck.
- I've also tried using bluray media instead of DVD+R but again it did not work.
- I've even disabled McAfee during the process of burning to disc to see if that made a difference.
- The only successful attempts I've had is when I share to my PC and export to a file. Was able to do that with my original project plus a couple of my test ones. I've done both an AVI and MPEG. Trying to determine which is really the best option/quality.
I've read that some people recommend exporting to a file because it provides a backup of the video and you don't have to rely on PE. That might be fine but want to be able to retain my disc menu's and on the occassion in which I record at the highest resolution on my video camera, that I can burn a bluray disc (which I have been successful doing through PE before). So might be missing a step on maintaining my menu and might need recommendation of a 3rd party software to keep menu and burn to bluray. Especially if I can't get past my issue. The end objective is to be able to rip a DVD so I can give one to each of the dance team girls.
At this stage I don't think I have more to add but I'm sure I overlooked something. I apologize if I put anyone to sleep. It is very possible that I'm overlooking something but have to admit that doing video editing and building home DVDs are new to me so still striving to learn more in this area. I hope that someone has had a similar experience or can perhaps give me some advice. I've combed through the system event logs and did go through the computer and can't find a single thing wrong with the OS or hardware. I know back in the day that people would recommend setting the min/max of the pagefile the same to reduce fragmentation of the pagefile. Not sure if this holds true to Windows 7 or not. Would think that there might be pros/cons to either configuration. Maybe something is awry with my rebuild.
Thanks again for everyone who have been patient enough to read through my post. Thanks in advance for any help that you might be able to provide.
Best regards,
MarkMark,
Well-stated. Here are a few comments, and some questions:
You have both HD and SD material, and plan on burning to DVD-Video, which will be SD. How are you handling the mixed footage?
It appears that you started with an HD Project Preset, to match your JVC's source video. Is that correct?
What about that SD material? Did you just Scale it up to match the HD material, or did you leave it with full letter-boxing and pillar-boxing, i.e. black bars all around?
Instead of the iTunes music, can you convert the M4a files to PCM/WAV @ 48KHz 16-bit? Adobe programs can have issues with MPEG Audio, whether MP3, or M4a. The great free audio-editing program, Audacity, should be able to do this easily. This might have zero to do with the issue, but is the workflow that is 100% for me, though I use Adobe Audition to convert to PCM/WAV.
What are the pixel x pixel dimensions of those still images? Are you Importing overly-large stills, and getting PrE to Scale them down to the Frame Size of your Project?
As for your Page File, I recommend setting that up to be statically managed, and for two reasons:
With a statically managed Page File, the OS is freed of having to calculate on the fly, and that takes CPU cycles and reads and writes.
Depending on the CPU and the I/O sub-system, if the dynamically managed Page File is expanded a bit more slowly, than the program is expecting, it can fault, rather than wait, assuming that the system has hung.
Though you have two physical HDD's with the RAID 1, they are seen as one, plus the redundancy. It also seems that you have partitions. Is your D:\ just the Dell Recovery Disc? If so, then everything is on one HDD, the OS, the program, the media, the Scratch Disks, everything. This can cause bottlenecks when editing and Exporting/Sharing. Is your RAID controlled via software, or by a dedicated hardware controller card? If via software, then there are many CPU cycles used for that, and especially with a RAID 1.
You have adequate free space, and that is better than many. PrE requires plenty of HDD space for the very large working files.
Do you have Windows Indexing ON for your HDD's? This can really get in the way, when editing.
Now, there are two ways to Burn a DVD - Burn to Disc (where you are getting your errors - right?), and Burn to Folder, which will retain the full Menu system and all authoring. That will create the full DVD VIDEO_TS folder structure, with the IFO, BUP and VOB's. All will be included. Then, one can use a burning utility, like the great, free ImgBurn, to do the physical burn. This also has the advantage of allowing one to slow down the burn speed. About half of max. is better.
When you do burn, I strongly recommend using either Verbatim, or Taiyo-Yuden blank media.
I would also carefully check your Timeline for ANY gaps in your Video. Those can cause Transcoding errors. This ARTICLE will give you some background and tips.
Glad that you have turned OFF your anti-virus software, when you are editing and authoring. Especially the newer real-time monitoring, has caused no end to grief, as it insists on scanning every file accessed, and this can cause many errors.
For the BSOD/reboot, this ARTICLE might be useful.
It seems that you have already addressed most of the things in this ARTICLE, but perhaps there is something that has been overlooked.
I am sure that I am overlooking some things, and hope that others will have ideas.
Good luck,

Visio 2010 Stardard install error on Windows 8.1 with Office Pro 2013 already installed
Both Visio and Office are 64bit. Visio gives "The language of this installation package is not supported by your system". Tried the LIS "CacheOnly" suggested on a few sites. Causes Installer boot segment fault. Any ideas? Suppose we have
to uninstall Office, install Visio, re-install office? Afraid that will jack up my activations count. Assuming the issue is newer Office is causing the problem.Hi,
For the error message, the issue may be caused by some reasons.
The Visio 2010 installation source was damaged.
The installation source for the language pack did not contain all the necessary files.
Please try the following methods:
1.Change an installation source.(Click
here to re-download)
2.Extract all sv-se files necessary for the language pack installation and installed the language pack successfully.
3.Unzip the installation source and double-click the setup.exe to install.
If we had tried the all above methods, we need to try that uninstall Office, install Visio, re-install office. It’s important to always install earlier versions of Office first.

Conflict between Logic Pro and external device error in Logic Pro X./cpu problems
hi Logic users,
using a MacBookPro 15 inch Retina, 2,7 GHz intel Core i7, 16 GB Ram, OSX 10,8,5, Logic X 10.0.4.
i am wondering if you can help me out with the following problem i cant solve:
when starting logic x with a not too big arrangement, lets say using one third to half of cpu, i open u-he plugin Diva and the cpu is going up on full range and the following error appears: "sample-rate 39299 (number always changes) reconized. Check conflict between logic pro x and external device"
as external device im running a VirusTi and as audio-device Apogge Duet. when dis-connecting both devices, i have the same problem.
putting the sample buffer up to the highest rate, doesnt change anything.
same arrangements on friends computers dont show that problem, so it has to be something wrong in my set up.
anybody has an idea?
would be much appreciated for your help,
thanx-Have you used Diva's preset Accuracy system to reduce CPU load?
accuracy
Click on the Main button at the bottom of the window. To the right of the Master section are two selectors called Accuracy and OfflineAcc. In the current version of Diva these are global parameters i.e. they remain fixed across all presets, per loaded instance:
draft........CPU-friendly, but FM will sound rough and resonance is primitive i.e. NOT zero delay! fast......... Fine for older computers and/or when you need more polyphony in acceptable quality great...... The best compromise between quality and polyphony on high-power computers divine..... Top-quality zero delay feedback filters... but can your computer can handle it?
OfflineAcc only has two options – same or best (i.e. divine in the current version).
Some host applications may have problems rendering to audio at the selected accuracy, but the
better ones include an “inform plug-ins of offline rendering status” or similar.
I typically work in draft mode and then switch to Devine or best when freezing the track or bouncing the entire project... -
Slow processing and getting opening errors/warnings
I've modified the PDF Binder sample to get a plugin that would open PDF's and Tif files, and save them as PDF/A-1b (code below).
It's working. The problem: it's processing too slow (compared with the Actions batch processing)... and I've been getting warnings/and errors about "The imput file is corrupt or of an unknown/unsupported type" type. This is stopping my batch process until I click OK, and the it continues.
I am trying to process a few thousand of tif files now. I tried first to use the Batch processing capability built in the Acrobat X... an it works, but only with the first 255 documents in the folder... then gives an "insufficient disk space" message for the rest of the files in the directory.
So, 2 questions: Does anyone knows why it is so slow processing the tiff files and... how I can make my code "silent" so it does not wait for the OK after the message??
Thanks in advance.

Implementation
/** This sample implements a method to convert multiple files into PDF
and bind the PDFs into one PDF file .
This sample shows developers how to grammatically implement To-PDF file
converson functionality. Basically, the code uses AVConversionToPDFHandler
to convert files to PDF and PDDocInsertPages()to combine PDF files.
This plug-in is designed to run from a menu item, and by setting bEcho = false
it may be run without any graphics user interface on the screen. Therefore, it
can be executed from other programs such as C IAC, VB IAC, and JavaScript
to meet enterprise workflow needs.
How to run it :
- This sample adds a menu item "PDF Binder" under the Acrobat SDK submenu. Two ways to
execute it: 1) click the menu item to run the program using a fixed file location
hard coded; 2) press the shift key and click the menu item to choose a folder where
files to be converted are located.
- Without folder selection, this original code is to convert and bind files in a
directory C\test\PDFBinder for Win, or a folder MacHD:test:PDFBinder for Mac.
You can copy the test files in the project's testfiles folder to the appropriate location
for testing. You may locate files to be converted in another directory/folder, and
specify the location in the string variable PDFBinderFolder in the code.
- When you have the files to be converted ready in the specified location,
run Acrobat 6 menu Advanced->AcrobatSDK->PDF Binder to start the operation. There are
echo messages informing you of the operation start and end, but you can change and
rebuild the code to turn off the display on screen.
- An output file PDFBinderOutput.pdf in the same location is created
when the program succeeds. A text log file PDFBinderLog.txt in the same
location records the process and results.
- You can set bEch = false in the code to turn off any display on the screen.
This is necessary when you call the menu function from within other programs
of C IAC, VB IAC, JavaScript.
- An optional file filter is used to pre-process the files. The filter only allows
the files with predefined types to be processed. You can change the file type list
as you wish. Using a filter may ensure a smooth automation process, since you can put
only well-tested file types in the filter. To turn off the filter, you can set
gPDFBinderFileFilter = "" or not to define USE_FILE_FILTER
- Note this is a sample only, developers need to make further improvement for
their actual use. For example, you can set up a list of files to use the method for
the conversion and binding. And you can add code to handle special file types.
