What is the best process for creating, opening, editing, etc PDFs from within Visual Studio 2008?

I am the project manager on a web-based application that will need to:
Create, open, edit, save, etc PDFs from within a Visual Studio 2008 web application (Visual Basic).
Populate PDFs from SQL server 2010 database.
Allow users to use PDF editing tools from within the website.
BTW, the application is being written in Visual Basic.
Will the SDK allow us to do this? What licenses do we need to purchase?
Are there 3rd party plugins that make doing these things much faster and simpler?
Any input is GREATLY appreciated!!!
Sincerely,
Mike

I don't think Acrobat, or the Acrobat SDK can help you. Acrobat cannot be run on a server.

  • What's the best way to create and edit a PDF where the source document is also a PDF?

    Hi,
    To be specific, we are in the process of upgrading our A/P processes and we have received a user manual from the company we contracted for the upgrade. I've been tasked with customizing this manual for my company's specific processes (this is with the permission).
    What is the best course of action to accomplish this? I thought I should save a copy of the manual, and then modify each page as necessary. I will be adding and deleting text and graphics. I have never used Acrobat before, but consider myself a quick study.
    Any suggestions wil be greatly appreciated.

    When Acrobat saves to Word 97-2003 format, it actually writes a Rich Text Format file - the binary .DOC format used by Word is a closed standard. The .DOCX format is just XML, and neither export process cares if you have Office installed or not. In theory, OpenOffice can read both types of file; but there does tend to be some minor difference between how OO arranges things and how MS Word does it.
    The critical thing is that if the PDF file has structure tags (i.e. it's accessible), Acrobat can flow the content properly in the exported file and can identify things as headers, quotes, lists, tables, etc. If not, it has to guess what the reading order is based on where things are on the page, and it will often get confused by intricate layouts, spanned columns, etc. There are of course some things (such as Word Art) which don't survive the trip to PDF and back, and will show as an image.

  • What is the best process for creating a webi document?

    I inherited a BI 4.0 environment with published repositories, dashboards, and webi documents.
    For development purposes, I tried creating the webi document local to my machine (due to how slow it was to create the document using BILaunch pad and/or the webi rich client on the "console")
    I created it as 'standalone, pointing to a local universe'; however, I can't figure out a way to move it back into my enterprise world.
    I was able to convert and publish the local universe to my enterprise repository; however, because I created the document in standalone mode, it doesn't appear to want to let me change the data source to a universe.
    So right now .. I have a webi document that won't let me select a universe for a data source.
    Any help or proven methods for creating documents then moving them to an enterprise environment would be appreciated.
    Thanks in advance.

  • What is the best process for adding a long text scroll into a video?

    I have an hour video and need to insert a narrated poem that will either scroll or have lines fade in / out. What is the best process to create that poem? Do I use Motion? Live Type? compose it directly in FCP? I'll have either a still image or a looping video for the background. Once I know the best starting point, then I'll refine my questions. The poem is about 4 minutes narrated. Appreciate any help to get me started.

    In the effects window try "Scrolling Text". Set it to be the length you need it (duration) and paste in your text and render and see how you like it. I think scrolling text has a nice little fade at the top and bottom too.
    Or, you can make the text an image in something like Photoshop and keyframe it to slowly move in FCP for the duration of the video.

  • What is the best Computer for HD video editing where can I get it under $3000-5000? Thank you!

    What is the best Computer for HD video editing where can I get it under $3000- $5000.00?

    The wording of your question suggests you may be new to video editing, in which case the types of projects you will be doing may not be the most complex.
    Please accept my apology if that assumption is incorrect.
    The cheapest computer available will edit 1080p video perfectly well but if you must have the "best" you will be looking at nothing less than a MacPro.
    Too many people get hung up about the equipment they use  and blame it for any inadequacies  .  .  .  when the most important component is the operator.

  • What is the best practice for creating primary key on fact table?

    what is the best practice for primary key on fact table?
    1. Using composite key
    2. Create a surrogate key
    3. No primary key
    In document, i can only find "From a modeling standpoint, the primary key of the fact table is usually a composite key that is made up of all of its foreign keys."
    http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E11882_01/server.112/e16579/logical.htm#i1006423
    I also found a relevant thread states that primary key on fact table is necessary.
    Primary Key on Fact Table.
    But, if no business requires the uniqueness of the records and there is no materilized view, do we still need primary key? is there any other bad affect if there is no primary key on fact table? and any benifits from not creating primary key?

    Well, natural combination of dimensions connected to the fact would be a natural primary key and it would be composite.
    Having an artificial PK might simplify things a bit.
    Having no PK leads to a major mess. Fact should represent a business transaction, or some general event. If you're loading data you want to be able to identify the records that are processed. Also without PK if you forget to make an unique key the access to this fact table will be slow. Plus, having no PK will mean that if you want to used different tools, like Data Modeller in Jbuilder or OWB insert / update functionality it won't function, since there's no PK. Defining a PK for every table is a good practice. Not defining PK is asking for a load of problems, from performance to functionality and data quality.

  • What is the best practice for creating master pages and styles with translated text?

    I format translated text all the time for my company. I want to create a set of master pages and styles for each language and then import those styles into future translated documents. That way, the formatting can be done quickly and easily.
    What are the best practices for doing this? As a company this has been tried in the past, but without success. I'd like to know what other people are doing in this regard.
    Thank you!

    I create a master template that is usually void of content, with the exception I define as many of the paragraph styles I believe can/will be used with examples of their use in the body of the document--a style guide for that client. When beginning a new document for that client, I import those styles from the paragraph styles panel.
    Exception to this is when in a rush I begin documentation first, then begin new work. Then in the new work, I still pull in those defined paragraph and or object styles via their panels into the new work.
    There are times I need new styles. If they have broader applicability than a one-off instance or publication, then I open the style template for that client and import that style(s) from the publication containing the new style(s) and create example paragraphs and usage instructions.
    Take care, Mike

    Loop at p0006.
    move p0006 to T_p0006.

  • What's the best solution for audio out of sound files from a MacBook Air to both an amplifier and to a subwoofer amplifier? I'm using the MBA to play sound files for worship services at our church.

    I have a MacBook Air (13", 1.7GHz, 8GB RAM, 500GB SSD) that I'll be using to play sound files (primarily organ and piano) for worship services at my church. We'll be using a QSC RMX2450 650 Watts/Channel amplifier with Community CPL-27 speakers and also a JBL SUB 250P powered subwoofer with its own amplifier. What's the best option for getting sound out from the Mac to both of these amplifiers? 

    if you work with own recorded sounds you might wanna have a music program where you want to work with samples, steinberg has got very good ones (so they say)... but their really really ( ²) expensive(that's why almost no one haves them), magix haves good ones too bu their more for 'unprofessional' use, ableton haves really good ones too and they're not to difficult to use (if you know a bit of those programs you learn very quickly) and if you don't get them, there is a sort of manual built in it which explains and lets you do things to start (basics)
    i hope this helped, btw stereo speakers are always better if you buy good ones (no pc speakers), but if you don't think you need them, don't buy them...
    so again, i hope you have some ideas now

  • What is the best program for creating cd inserts for coverart of a  CD?

    I am in a band and need to know the best program for cd artwork.

    If you're more concerned about designing them than about printing them yourself (which would cost a comparative fortune using an inkjet printer, and look crummy using a color laser printer), then Photoshop and Illustrator are by far the best design tools available.

  • What is the best App for filing, viewing, editing excel?

    I need help choosing the best app to work with excel for the ipad. I have mariner calc and am unhappy with it. It drops out quite a bit of formatting and you cannot file in folders. What is the best option?
    Thanks!

    To Edit excel files the best app right now is currently Numbers, Numbers is severely limited in file organization and sharing right now. If all you need to do is look at excel files you have a couple options.
    Option 1 (Requires Connectivity):
    Place the file on the web and view it in safari
    Option 2 (Offline use):
    Use Goodreader to download and save your files, you can create folder Heiarchies and copy files from your computer using a sync cable from itunes, via email, or even through wifi.
    If you can find something that combines the two options please let me know as I have been looking for solutions to this problem too. I wish apple had a shared folder space where apps could save files to be used in multiple programs much like they do with the photo albums

  • What is the best software for home movie editing

    Have some old home movies that were digitalized from 8mm film to VOB format.  Want to edit and clean them up and reformat into modern mp4/H.264 format. What is the best software/app to use on iMAC running 10.9.2?  Thank you for any suggestion.

    I would expect that iMovie would be quite adequate for this. If you find it lacking, or if you're just curious, take a look at Final Cut Pro X. There is a thirty day, fully functional trial download so you can find out first and whether it's worth $300 for your purposes.

  • What are the best options for creating a PDF with bookmarks and a hyperlinked TOC?

    What I'm interested in is whether or not there is an alternate process I could follow that would side step Word 2011's inability to export to PDF with bookmarks and hyperlinked TOCs. How do you create PDF documents with bookmarks and hyperlinked TOCs in your documents?
    Some background:
    In Word 2010 and 2013 for Windows (and I'm sure this applies to older versions as well), you can export documents to a PDF file format where the exported file will carry over the bookmarks and hyperlinked table of contents. Specifically, by making specific text headers, will appear in the final PDF file as bookmarks on the side (see image taken from Adobe's website).
    Regarding the table of contents, using Word's built in Table of Contents feature successfully ports the ability to navigate to a specific section by clicking on its chapter in the table of contents to the finished PDF file.
    I've read several forum discussions that say it's not possible to do this from Word 2011, so my current solution is to just finish all documents on a Windows machine (either with parallels or a separate computer). The alternate process flow of creating a word document, exporting it to PDF, then rehyperlinking everything in Acrobat is just too time consuming to consider.

    Hi, beejasaurus
    I found a possible kluge from this discussion here
    https://forums.adobe.com/thread/1008480
    Create the hyperlinks in Word, save the file
    Open that file with Pages, export as PDF.
    The links work from that PDF.
    Note, I did not try this with TOC but it worked with hyperlinks embedded in the Word document

    Gang,
    I've just purchased a new iMac for myslef and am gifting my "old" iMac to Niece.  Original iMac has Snow Leopard upgrade (came with Leopard) as well as Word for Mac -student addition.  I also have an external backup drive and use Time Machine as specified.
    What are the easy and appropraite steps to provide my niece a "new" iMac (clean and free of my items) as well as protect my info so I can place on my new iMac?  Will I also need to de-authorixe audible for iTunes?
    Thank you for your help.  I know this is probably a very basic procedure but I want to get it correct and ensure I don't harm either iMac.

    Well I don't think your niece is going to rob you blind or sell your company secrets to the highest bidder, so a full 7x- 35x government grade overwrite and operating install is likely overkill.
    Just likley some personal files, pictures and videos, stuff like that you want to make sure doesn't get seen.
    My suggestion is to clean out your user level files manually in each of your Documents, Pictures etc folders, any bookmarks in browsers (reset Safari, clear cache) and emails you don't want carried on.
    Then download and run the cleaning aspects of OnyX, followed by a Disk Utility > Erase Free Space option. (in your Applications/Utilities folder)
    http://www.titanium.free.fr/
    You can create another Admin account in her name/nick and delete the first one with your name and all that.
    If you really want to get rid of your name from everywhere in the comptuer, then the only option is a c boot from the installer disk, Disk Utility Erase with Zero (7x or even 35x overwrite) and then resintall OS X and shutdown the machine,
    When this is done, OS X boots into the first "Welcome to OS X" video you saw when you first setup the machine. Of course you lose Word as that's not on the installer disk. But LibreOffice is free and much much better.

    Your allowed up to 5 computers with your iTunes content, but you can deauthorize the computer in iTunes so it doesn't take one of your authorizations.
    Also before you do anything, make a MANUAL backup of your data to another drive just in case Time Machine/Migration ***. etc doesn't screw the new pooch on you like it's been known to do.
    I always c boot off the new installer disk on new machines and Disk Utility Erase with Zero option the entire boot drive then reinstall OS X, it's not that I'm paranoid, it's that drives are not checked for bad sectors at the factory, they just slap OS X on it and off it goes, problems appear later on as people use the drive or can't read the software correctly off the drive.
    So I map off the bad sectors ahead of time, so the software is on good sectors and never have a post issue like others do with new machines.
    If you ordered a Mac with custom software installed, obiously your going to need to reinstall it after this.
