Won't OCR documents with font information

If you try to OCR a document with a mixture of scanned pages and pages with font glyphs, Acrobat will refuse the OCR the pages with fonts.
This means
(1) you can't use the "scan multiple documents" interface to OCR documents with font glyphs
(2) if you open the document in Acrobat and scan it, you need to know which pages are scanned, and which have fonts, so you can scan only the pages without fonts
Even worse, Acrobat gives you no way to figure out which pages have font glyphs on them. This is especially frustrating if you have scanned some of the pages using "Clearscan" which replaces the scan with font glyphs, but in such a way as to be nearly imperceptible. The only way to find out is to try to OCR the document (up to 4 hours for large documents on a fast computer), then write down the error message, and then try again.
I have submitted a bug report to Adobe, but will not hold my breath waiting for them to fix this one.
A
PS--The error message in Acrobat is "This page contains renderable text." Thought I should put it in so that others can search for this post.

Minumum and Maximum pointsize in the active document with font name

hi
How to find the font with point size in active document and how to get the minimum point size and maximum point size used in the active document with font name
Thanks in Advance.

Okay, that does look good (without testing it). Does it do its job?
I think it can be made a bit more efficiently by not running over all text frames, but rather over all stories in the document -- a small change, the rest can stay the same.
You can also try turning the gathering of used data around. It appears you are now pushing every item immediately into your array, then weed out duplicates. (For my thoughts on the latter, see below!) It might be quicker and more memory-efficient to scan your present array to see if the new item is already in there, and only push when it's not. (Bonus points for a binary tree implementation -- the fastest possible way! But a linear search on the entire array, or on a sorted array and bailing out if you go "past" the current item, may be fast enough.)
(On Weeding out duplicates; you might want to skip this, as it won't be necessary for the above:)
Your function UniteSame sorts out and removes duplicates by comparing every item to every other one; then it sorts the array. An alternative can be to
1. Sort the array
2. Create a new empty one
3. Push an item of the original onto the new one.
4. Skip items of the original list while they are the same as the bottom one of the new list.
5. Until you run out of items.

Updating a document with category metadata using updateDocument(): error!

I have studied the sample code and the API docs, and I feel pretty sure I am coding it according to the docs, but I cannot successfully update a document with category metadata. I always get a MetaDataSchemaInvalid exception.
My process goes like this:
1. Upload a new file, creating a new document publicobject.
2. Create a CATEGORY_DEFINITION with all the metadata name/value pairs I wish to write.
3. Call FileManager.updateDocument() with this CATEGORY_DEFINITION.
My process differs from the docs in that I am first uploading the document, and then adding the metadata as a second step. I want to get it working this way to make my system more modular. I do not want to make my upload method dependent upon metadata attributes, and vice versa.
Step 1 is working fine. The document is being uploaded to the right folder. Good to go.
Step 3 is where I get the error. If the error is my fault, then it must be a result of what I do in step 2. The structure of my CATEGORY_DEFINITION must be messed up.
Here is my code for creating the CATEGORY_DEFINITION. The Document class is my own entity that encapsulates the binary data for a document, as well as the metadata attributes that are to be assigned to the document once it is uploaded into Content Services. We don't need to worry about where the data comes from. Just assume the raw data is correct.
public NamedValue[] newCategoryAttributeDefinition(Document document, String categoryDisplayName) throws WebserviceClientException {
/* Get the category attribute name-value pairs as a 2-D array. */
Map metadataMap = document.getMetadataParser().getAttributeNameMapping();
List categoryDefinitionAttributeList = new ArrayList();
for(Iterator i = metadataMap.entrySet().iterator(); i.hasNext();) {
Map.Entry entry = (Map.Entry)i.next();
String name = "CUSTOM_" + (String)entry.getKey();
Object value = entry.getValue();
if(value != null) {
categoryDefinitionAttributeList.add(new Object[] { name, value });
Object[][] categoryDefinitionAttributeArray = new Object[categoryDefinitionAttributeList.size()][];
int index = 0;
for(Iterator i = categoryDefinitionAttributeList.iterator(); i.hasNext();) {
Object[] value = (Object[])i.next();
categoryDefinitionAttributeArray[index++] = value;
/* Create the NamedValue tree that describes this category's attribute values. */
Long categoryId = new Long(getCategoryClassId(categoryDisplayName));
NamedValue[] categoryAttributeDefinition = WebserviceUtils.newNamedValueArray(new Object[][] {
{ Options.CATEGORY_ID, categoryId },
{ Options.CATEGORY_DEFINITION_ATTRIBUTES, WebserviceUtils.newNamedValueArray(categoryDefinitionAttributeArray) }
NamedValue[] categoryDefinition = WebserviceUtils.newNamedValueArray(Options.CATEGORY_DEFINITION, categoryAttributeDefinition);
return categoryDefinition;
And below is the resulting CATEGORY_DEFINITION, as seen in a jdb debugger.
-- The OPT.CATEGORY_ID value is equal to the ID column in ODMV_SCHEMACATEGORY, otherwise known as the category class id.
-- My OPT.CATEGORY_DEFINITION_ATTRIBUTES tree for this document has the 4 attributes that I want to set. The category has more than these 4 attributes; I am not populating every attribute. None of the attributes are required, and all are editable. I don't need to include every attribute in my CATEGORY_DEFINITION, even if the values are null, do I? Also, all the attribute names start with "CUSTOM_", which I believe is necessary - right?
-- I am setting only the OPT.CATEGORY_ID and OPT.CATEGORY_DEFINITION_ATTRIBUTES. Am I missing some other required attribute?

After building this CATEGORY_DEFINITION, I go on to attempt an update to the document with this information. Here is the method I call.

1 – For an existing document, how do I determine what category instances have been applied to it and their attribute values
FdkSession session = …;
// Consider we have an existing item myDoc of type document
Item myDoc = …;
CommonManager cm = Managers.getCommonManager(session);
AttributeRequest[] requestedAttributes = new AttributeRequest[]
// The Categories associated with this Document, if any
new AttributeRequest(Attributes.CATEGORIES,
// sub attributerequest
new AttributeRequest[] {
    // the actual attributes name/values for the category instance – returns a namedvalue array
    new AttributeRequest(Attributes.CUSTOM_ALL,null),
    // the actual category class for the category instance – returns an item
    new AttributeRequest(Attributes.CATEGORY_CLASS_OBJECT,null)
myDoc = cm.getItem(myDoc.getId(), requestedAttributes);
log(myDoc); /* output could look like:

CUSTOM_14353=Internal Only Pending Review (String)
CATEGORY_CLASS_OBJECT (Item)=
(Item) 14354 CATEGORY_CLASS 5044-14351
This means, that for document sample3.doc, we have 1 instance of a category object applied to it.
The category object instance has id 14387. The instance is of a category class object type 14354. The instance has two attributes with internal names CUSTOM_14352, and CUSTOM_15353. The values of these attributes are of type Boolean and String respectively.

If ALLOW_ALL_CATEGORIES is set to true, any category in the domain can be utilized that is not abstract.

It also has a property ROOT_CATEGORY_CLASSES which returns just the top level categories (those that have no custom category superclass). You would create a sub AttributeRequest[] checking for CLASS_ABSTRACT when requesting the appropriate categories attribute from the domain.
If ALLOW_ALL_CATEGORIES is set to false, the applicable categories objects that can be utilized on items contained in the folder is determined by the items contained in the ALLOWED_CATEGORIES attribute of the category configuration.

Why a pdf document with embedded fonts can be copied but is not searchable in pdf reader

I am writing a pdf files with embedded subset fonts. As required, I am including the ToUnicode and CIDSet objects. To test, I created a simple PDF with two Hebrew characters. I can select the two characters and copy to the clipboard, and paste it properly into another application such as Word. But I am not able to search for a word containing these two characters. Adobe Reader (or Acrobat) displays the message that the word was not found. So in essence, I have created a PDF document which can be copied properly, but is not searchable. Any idea what I might be missing when creating the document?
Additional information: 1. The file in question is a minimal file with just two characters. I have tested with many such files in many different languages including English. None of the files are searchable. 2. Curiously, if I search for the letter 'e', Adobe reader highlights an incorrect word, even if the letter 'e' does not exists in the file. 3. Adobe acrobat is also not able to search within this file, however when I save the file to another disk file, the saved file now is searchable. I confirmed that the major objects such as the font-file, ToUnicode object, CID object, and the font description objects are the same in the saved file. However, one of the font object is brought up closer to the top of the file. 4. FoxIt is able to search these files properly.

I figured the app might have that ability - considering you can add text, highlight, add a signature, annotate and draw - so my thought was why not delete a page, or rearrange for that matter?.. That should be an option, this way we don't have to export to one of the other apps to delete or rearrange..
Thanks for the help, Bernd.
BTW if anyone is looking - PDF Max can do all of the above and delete and rearrange. With PDF Splicer you can delete and rearrange as well, but it has no other features.
And as for Steve Werner whose comment was deleted after it got to my inbox, it is much more than a Reader, as you can plainly see from the amount of tasks the Reader app can do above.

Word 2010 document with images won't print to HPLJ5550 printers

It prints fine on black and white printers (HP 4250). It's a 25-page document with images on almost every page. The file size in Explorer shows the document is 3.2mb. The printer queue window shows its 2.27mb/415 mb.
I've tried to figure this out.
I sent the same document to four different HPLJ5550 printers. All the same problem.
I sent it to other printer models and it works fine.
I sent it from different computers. Same results.
I turned off background printing. I disabled advanced printing. I PDF'd it and it still wouldn't print.
The issue is that we are moving to Office 2010 in May and I am responsible for training everyone. But, I can't print my training materials on 90% of our printers (HPLJ5550). Gack. What will this be like when we have all our employees trying to print and documents won't print.
This has happened with other Word 2010 documents too. I thought it may have been the fonts in the styles. So I changed the styles to use Times New Roman and Arial. Didn't help.
I made new styles, not based on any other style, and used TNR and Arial. Didn't help.
I save the file back to Word 2003. Didn't help.
I can, however, print the file fine on the one Dell 5100 color printer we have. But, that's not going to work when we have 700 users trying to print to their HPLJ5550 printers (the company default printer for all our locations).
I would appreciate any suggestions you have. Right now I have had to go back to using Word 2003 to create the training documents for Word 2010 classes - totally not acceptable.Ugh.
Thank you!

I am using BB ZZ10, and my laptop has Kaspersky Anti Virus installed in Windows 7, as mentioned in the forum, i have stopped my AV, and installed the PrintToGo and still it is not working.
I get a small window asking for my blackberry ID and Password, once i enter it correctly it give a error message, stating that cannot connect to internet or DNS not found when all other browser pages are able to connect.
if i enter wrong password it shows password wrong and then asks for correct password, only if i give correct password it shows the error message which is a typical Internet explorer error message.

Font information changed, may effect document?

When I used Print Setup to print the Book for my Structured Document, after selecting the "PDF Printer" I get a message saying "The font information for your computer has changed. This change may effect the format and output of your document". How can I consolidate the font information so it doesn't change and I'm using the same font information to design my documents?

FM also uses any available printer fonts, so switching to the AdobePDF gives you a very limited selection. Usually, the issue is with Times vs TimesNewRoman and this is effectiveely transparent.
To ensure that you dont' have this happening, it's best to always have the AdobePDF as the default printer when using FM. The Sundorne SetPrint utility (http://sundorne.com/FrameMaker/Freeware/setPrint.htm ) does this automatically for you and is highly recommended.

A PDF document with information about activation for CS6 software

Here's a PDF document with information about activation for CS6 software.
I found it very useful for understanding how the system worked for activation of perpetual licenses, both in cases where the computer is and isn't connected to the Internet.

Ann, with some browsers, the PDF document will download in the background rather than appear in a browser window.

Save/open document with different font with RTFEditor!

Hello everyone !
I am creating a RTF Editor with JTextPane, DefaultStyledDocument and RTFEditor,It is right if input English character with different Font such as Arial,Basemic etc .but with Non-English ,It is question!!when I input chinese in font "��GB_2312",and save it ,then I open it again ,font is changed to "��"��but font size,color ,and style is correct!I doubt it is RTFEditor does't support chinese font ,is it?how can I do?
thanks a lot!

That's because nobody has posted an answer. You can find the discussion at how do I save a document with different page orientations to one pdf? I think this is pretty much what happens on Mac, but you can combine the separate PDFs to one.

Can I OCR a document with a watermark?

How can I OCR a document with a watermark?

You can run OCR, but because the watermark is just part of the stuff on the page, it isn't likely to go well.

HT1338 Is there a HP Photosmart printer driver update 12.16.1 that supports OS 10.7.5 that will allow me to scan documents with OCR? If so where/how do I download or get it? Thanks

Sorry, I meant to say Apple printer driver update 2.16.1 for OS 10.7.5. Is there a HP Photosmart printer driver update 2.16.1 that supports OS 10.7.5 that will allow me to scan documents with OCR? If so where/how do I download or get it? Thanks

I just updated my MAC operating system and when I went to open a recent document in numbers, the document that opened had none of my data and was formatted differently. Can I get my document with all my information back?

I just updated my MAC operating system and when I went to open a recent document in numbers, the document that opened had none of my data and was formatted differently. Can I get my document with all my information back?

I suggest the easy stuff first:
1) quite Numbers and restart Numbers
2) reboot the computer
After that try opening the same document in another user space

Saving InCopy Story with Font and Style information...

Dear All,
Can anyone can shed any light on an InCopy story export problem I'm having?
I've got two versions of a function in a shared library, one for CS4 and one for CS5, which is used for both InCopy and InDesign.
The story export works okay and normally outputs the font and style information which is used by the story.
I've just added code to include all font and style resources dependent on a system setting.
The CS4 version works fine and I get a satisfying amount of file bloat if I turn the option on.
The CS5 version works as expected in InDesign but not when it's called from InCopy.
In fact if I turn the setting on in InCopy I get no font information at all, if I turn it off then I get the font info used by the story.
The call to SetInCopyInterchangeExportOptions returns kNoError(nil), so I imagine it's worked...
Is there anyway I can trace what's going on in the export in InCopy.
Is this the right call to acheive my aim?
Thanks in advance for any help forthcoming.
Regards
Caerwyn

That is a sign that your preference files are becoming corrupt. Something is wrong with your system if this is happening regularly.

I'm running OS X 10.4.11 on my PowerMac, and cannot retrieve email. Does this have to do with iCloud? I also cannot upgrade my operating system as my computer won't accept it. Any information about this for me? Thank you!

Hi Steve,
If this is dot mac or Mobile me you can still use IMAP eMail in the iCloud.
Do not delete the old account yet. sign up for an iCloud account if you haven't.
MAKE A NEW ACCOUNT - DO NOT TRY TO ALTER YOUR EXISTING ACCOUNT.
I understand .mac mail will still come through. Do not delete the old account yet.
You cannot use .mac or MobileMe as type of Account, you have to choose IMAP when setting up, otherwise Mail is hard coded to change imap.mail.me.com to mail.me.com & smtp.mail.me.com to smtp.me.com, no matter what you try to enter.
iCloud Mail setup, do not choose .mac or MobileMe as type, but choose IMAP...
On second step where it asks "Description", it has to be a unique name, but you can still use your email address.
IMAP (Incoming Mail Server) information:
    •    Server name: imap.mail.me.com
    •    SSL Required: Yes
    •    Port: 993
    •    Username: [email protected] (use your @me.com address from your iCloud account)
    •    Password: Your iCloud password
SMTP (outgoing mail server) information:
    •    Server name: smtp.mail.me.com
    •    SSL Required: Yes
    •    Port: 587
    •    SMTP Authentication Required: Yes
    •    Username: [email protected] (use your @me.com address from your iCloud account)
    •    Password: Your iCloud password
Also, you must upgrade your password to meet the new criteria: 8 characters, including upper and lower case and numbers. If you have an older password that does not meet these criteria, when you try to setup mail on your mac, using all of the IMAP criteria listed above, it will still give a server error message. Go to   http://appleid.apple.com         then follow directions to change your password, then go back to setting up your mail using the IMAP instructions above.
Thanks to dpepper...

Need information about FI document with header and no items

Hello Experts!
I need your help for understanding the following subject :
How is it possible when using F.13 to obtain a fi document with header without items sometimes,
and fi document with header and items anothers times?
We didn't saw/found customizing topics about that ( to enable or not header without items) Some exists?
The only difference in the two cases are the document's type involded which are not the same.
Regards,
Josiane

Hi,
We verify and compare everything. it's the same everywhere except the document type of the invoice
first case, F.13 create conciliation fi document with header and no items
invoice ( doc. type YB )
payment ( doc type ZT)
conciliation ( doc type XZ )
2th case, F.13 create conciliation fi document with header and none items
invoice ( doc. type YT )
payment ( doc type ZT )
conciliation ( doc type XZ )
We match / compare every fields and value between invoice of 1st and 2tch case, every fields and value between payment of 1st and 2th case.
( we create tests case in own integration system for reproduce )
We alse match / compare customizing of invoice type document YB and YT and they seems identical...
The procedure is the same with F.13 to do conciliation in both cases.
we got same amount, same currency etc etc.
We still didn't understand why with invoice type YT the conciliation document created is not the same as invoice type YB ...
Nobody have idea ?
