Why word document file types wouldn't allow file download?

I noticed that my Flash movie wouldn't allow for word file
type download. I have a pdf file type as a download link, and it
worked fine. This issue happens only on IE. Any thoughts?

  • How can I convert my Open Source document files into Word document files? I cannot download Pages since my Macbook Air does not have the most recent software.

    How can I convert my Open Source document files into Word document files? I cannot download Pages since my Macbook Air does not have the most recent software. I downloaded open office to my mac to try and save money. It worked well for a while. Now I get this pop-up message that asks me to "Reopen" and when I select the option, nothing happens. I cannot save my documents anymore and I cannot convert them to word. Help!

    Does OpenOffice output Word documents by default or do you have to select it manually?
    You have 17 options to save as in Open Office, one of which is .doc  files,  yes it needs to be saved manually.
    You may be able to default to DOC, but have not tried same.
    Since Open Office is 99% same as Word, I use it, or Word, either one.  Open Office is a bit less buggy than Word 11'

  • How can I change a Microsoft Word document file into a picture file?

    How can I change a Microsoft Word document file into a picture or jpeg file? I am wanting to make the image I created my background on my macbook pro.

    After I had the document image the way I wanted it, I saved it as a web page and went from there. Below are the steps starting after I did the "save as" option in Word:
    1) Select "Save As Web Page". I changed the location from documents to pictures when the window came up to save it as a web page.
    2) Go to "Finder" on you main screen, or if it's on your main toolbar at the bottom.
    3) Click on the "Pictures" tab and find the file you just re-saved as a web page. (I included "web page" or something similar in the new title so I could easily find the correct file I was looking for)
    4) Open the correct file and then "right click" on the actual image. (Use 2 fingers to do so on a Mac)
    5) Select 'Use Image As Desktop Picture", and voilà! The personally created image, or whatever it is that you wanted, is now your background.
    **One problem I encountered while doing this is that the image would show up like it was right-aligned in relation to the whole screen. The only way I could figure how to fix this was to go back to the very original document in Word, (the one before it was saved as a web page), and move everything over to the left.
    I hope this helps someone else who was as frustrated as I was with something that I thought would have been very simple to do! If you have any tips or suggestions of your own, please feel free to share. : )

    Use the following code to execute the native application to open your document.  Example,  if user click on a word document, this will open the document in Microsoft Word.  If execl, will open the document in Microsoft Excel. 
      CALL METHOD CL_GUI_FRONTEND_SERVICES->EXECUTE
        EXPORTING
          DOCUMENT               = 'C:test.doc'
          MAXIMIZED              = 'X'

  • PDF Conversion of Word document file too large

    I am going crazy trying to figure out why PDF document files I make on my Mac are so much larger (file size) than the same document converted on my Windows machine using Adobe Acrobat. I also tested the file size by having a friend use her CutePDF document converter to convert it for me and my PDF document with a file size of 2.18 Mb came back from her at 78.5 Kb. However, when I try to view the document it has a message where the images are that "QuickTime and a decompressor are needed to see this picture". But she could see everything fine.
    I always loved my Adobe Acrobat software when I was a Windows user. With the exception of using Quicken on my MacBook using VMWare Fusion for running Windows, I don't want to use Windows anymore so I don't want to have Acrobat sitting on that partition. I know my Mac can convert to PDF but is there a way I can get the file sizes smaller? Or am I going to have to get a PDF writer program specifically for converting and compressing file sizes where other users, whether be Mac or Windows can see them.
    HELP please. I'm about ready to purchase the Adobe Acrobat X Professional for Mac OS X. I only need the Standard package but it appears they don't have a Mac version for anything less than the Professional package. I'm also wondering if CutePDF would work for me. Hmmm. I truly need the knowledge of you seasoned users.
    Thanks a bunch!!!

    so based on that specific solution can be given.

  • Cannot open Word document files in a Portfolio

    I have set up a portfolio with multiple file types. I can open Excel and Power Point files within the portfolio without a problem. When I try to open Word documents it tells me that "Acrobat cannot open this file attachment because your pdf file attachment settings do not allow for this file type to be opened. I went into preferances and checked to see if the box was checked in "trust manager" to allow files other than pdf to opened. It is checked but I am still unable to open word documents in the portfolio for some reason.

    Acrobat cannot open Word files. Have you tried opening the files from within Word? If so, most probably you have a file association problem.

  • Word document files appearing as Excel in IMail

    Hello:
    When I receive a Word document attachment it appears  in IMail as a .doc file extension but with an Excel Icon.  When I attempt to open it, Excel opens and informs me it is not a valid file.  The only way I am able to open these documents is by first saving on my desktop, then opening from inside Word.
    I am using the latest IMac with OS 10.9.  I also have Parallels installed and am running the virtual machine with Windows 8.  In that platform, I have my Microsoft Word, version 12.  I don't think the problem is that I am using a Virtual machine, as the problem seems to appear as how the document is received in IMail.
    TIA for any help you can offer.  It is driving me crazy!

    Actually I think my problem is a bit different from the first one.  My preview handler for Office documents (doc xls ppt etc) is not working at all.  But the kpmitch's question sounds like it relates more to the need to RESTORE the default list of allowed and disallowed file attachment types in the Preferences-Trust Manager.  Maybe for that problem Word fell off the list.
    My problem is that none of the office files will preview in the preview pane.
    I see that I am able to preview a Word doc using Acrobat.com.  I guess the preview handler for that web-based service is different from the preview handler used by the Acrobat 9 Professional Extended installed on my computer. 
    By the way - The computer I am using to test the problematic preview handler is network based (work) computer, Windows XP (SP3), using Office 2003 or Office 2007.  (I've tried it on different computers with both of these Office packages.) 
    Since our IT people use their own confguration to deploy the program, they are wondering if perhaps something in that custom build needs to be changed to enable the preview handler to work.  It isn't working on any of our machines. 
    Thanks for continuing to assit with this query!

  • ******Why couldn't File Download Box pop up???

    Hi all,
    I want to use applet to call the IE' file download box which does the csv download job.
    Here is my idea:
    First, click the menu of applet to call the servlet
    Scecond,call the IE file download box by this servlet invoked by the applet.
    The following code snippets intend to show the file download dialog:
    String fileName = "test.csv"
    response.setContentType("APPLICATION/OCTET-STREAM");
    response.setHeader("Content-Disposition", "attachment; filename=\""+fileName+"\"");
    unfortunately, the box didn't show!!!:-(
    One thing can be clear that with the IE or NetScape supported ,the file download dialog can be raised by writing the code above.
    I wanna make two things clear:
    No1:Is it true the file download box is part of function of the browser?
    No2:Is there any solution to this problem?
    Thanks a lot!

    it happens with the keyboard disconnected. I was surprised it booted up without going through the user screen so I didn't have to enter my password.
    and on another note, I'm sure it's obvious, but how do I boot up from my external drive with my imac? the other day when I was having serious issues while trying to fix this problem, I was unable to boot from my install disc
    thanks so much for your time

  • Strategy&word documents files

    i have 3 questions
    1. the strategy as i understand is a common interface being implemented by more than one class .. and there is a class (which is the strategy) that will instanciate one object of one of those classes (that implement the interface) everytime called.. did i understand the strategy right ??
    2. what is a composit .. can someone explain it with an easy example please ?
    3. i wrote a document using microsoft word as my user manual, it contains links within the document.. how can i view it in java with maintaining the links? can i run the MS word with the file as a parameter (if so then how?) or is there any better way ?
    thanks for helping

    Hello,
    1) Your understanding of strategy is not entirely correct. Though, operationally you are accurate in saying what you have. A strategy is a concept, that encapsulates an algorithm i.e. logic. Strategy is used in many circumstances, one example is when we want the logic applicable on a data set to vary conditionally (as you may have observed, a simple if..else could be used in this situation, however, that is the point of using a strategy, encapsulating the concern of varying logic).
    2) A composit, as the name suggests, is an entity which is composed of many other entities. You can view composit being constructed of smaller entities with various functions, whose total behavior is the composits behavior. It is mostly used when we want to combine together behavior of many concerns together and is most often used in combination with another patter, the "Deligate", where each of the smaller entities take responsibility to do a specific part of the Composits total behavior (this behavior should not be confused witha Proxy or Facade :D)
    3) I do not know of a direct way (without going into the encoding of MSWord i.e. RTF) to do this, what I can suggest, however, is to convert the document into an HTML and view it from a Java application (the conversion can be done by MSWord quite easily).
    Hope this helps.

  • Why is a file download taking so long?

    I am trying to download file 2 for Premier pro and it says it will take over 3 hours to download. I cannot understand why and what should I do.
    I'll note that I have a broadband cable internet connection so the internet connection doesn't seem to be the problem.

    Try using a different browser and see if that helps. 
    Another thing you could try is to skip downloading thru the Adobe download assistant system and use the direct ProDesign system instead.
    Be sure to follow the steps outlined in the Note: Very Important Instructions section on the download pages at this site or else the download will not work properly.

  • Why do CSV files downloaded to Excel appear as one sentence; Explorer converts to spreadsheet.

    Downloading census data from http://censtats.census.gov/cgi-bin/bldgprmt/bldgdisp.pl comes across in Explorer directly into Excel with all columns intact. When we use Firefox 3.6.8 it comes across as an old style csv, with "" and commas separating columnar data. How do we get Firefox to import csv into Excel spreadsheet so it doesn't have to be manipulated?
