Word or .pdf file for downloading

Does anyone know how to create a link to a Word file or .pdf
file that the user can save or open online? I thought I knew, but I
really don't...

Just create a normal link to it - how it opens or saves is
dependant on the
users configuration - you don't have any say in that matter.
Either leave the documents in their native format, or zip
them which will
force them to download first.
i.e: <p>Download my file <a
href="mydocument.pdf">here</a></p>
or this: <p>Download my file <a
href="mydocument.zip">here</a></p>

How do I add a PDF file for download to my iWeb page?

How do I add a PDF file for download to my iWeb page?
I have created one using Apples Pages program.
Thanks!

Hi-
You need to create a text link to the file...
On your page, type a word that you want to be the link... then select the word, and in the inspector pane, click the link tab (the arrow on the far right) and check "enable as hyperlink." Then choose "file" from the dropdown menu and a chooser box will open for you to locate the file on your hard drive.
Choose the file by clicking "open" once it's located. Then the next time you publish, the file will be uploaded and linked to!
Hope this helps... I think I got all the steps in there!

When i select a pdf file for download in a webpage instead of automatically downloading the file and opening it using adobe acrobat I get a new blank window in the browser and it says done in the bottom left corner

when I select a pdf file within a webpage and click to download instead of getting the "download" window and the file automatically opening after download using adobe reader I get a blank webpage (in the same tab) and in the bottom left corner it says"done". No file is downloaded and if I click "back" I just return to the webpage containing the link.

Aha! The properties for the plugin file nppdf32.dll for Adobe Reader indicate the file is for Adobe Acrobat. This misidentification is then used by SeaMonkey as a label in the helper application list.
Adobe Reader 11.0.3.37: nppdf32.dll has version 11.0.3.37. This is the version in SeaMonkey's plugins folder.
Adobe Acrobat 7.0.8.218: nppdf32.dll has version 7.0.9.50.
As for having both Adobe Reader and Adobe Acrobat on the same PC, this generally works providing Reader is installed AFTER Acrobat. Reader is freeware, and I want to keep it current. Acrobat is purchaseware, and I cannot afford to keep buying upgrades or newer versions.

Will not search for a word in pdf file. Using Windows 7

Like most I have used Acrobat reader for viewing PDF files for years. I recently upgraded to Windows 7 from XP. I have tried to search a PDF file for a word and it always comes up with none found even though I search for a word that is displayed in the document I'm looking at. Any advice?
Regards,
Dwight

If the PDF is not a scanned image, can you share it with us: https://forums.adobe.com/thread/1070933

Apple never bopthered to explain that this would happen
Your iDisk is still accessible after moving to iCloud in exactly the same way as before. Nothing is deleted until June 30th 2012.
, so I could easily have lost ALL of the files I kept on iDisk.
No, you couldn't. Firstly, nothing was deleted from your iDisk. Secondly, any files stored on your iDisk should never be your only copy. Even if your iDisk spontaneously combusted, you should keep local backups elsewhere.
Does Apple WANT people to move their storage elsewhere and stop paying Apple for it?
Yes. Apple doesn't provide such a service anymore, nor are you paying them for it.
Apple has made no effort to suggest remedies for the problem it has given iDisk users
They've provided instructions on how to download your files from your iDisk. What you do with them after that is your choice.

Adobe reader won't recognise pdf file when downloaded

Hi all
Hope I'm in the right forum, if not would be grateful for correct re-direction ...
I have a web site written in DWcs4 with a link to a PHP page offering a pdf document for download.
The PHP code includes the "content-disposition: attachment " header in order to prompt the "view or save as" download box.
When the link in the web page is accessed the pop up box asking to view or save the file works fine (as desired) however when trying to view the pdf file,
acrobat reader opens automatically but gives a message similar to the following :
my_pdf(1).pdf is not an permitted file type or is damaged (for example sent as an email attachment and not correctly coded)
Firstly I dont understand why the file reference has a (1) added to it (the source file is simply my_pdf.pdf)
secondly I dont understand why the file is not recognised since I created it myself in Adobe 8.0 converted from a word doc.
Any help would be GREATLY appreciated.
Thanks

Hi Luv_craft,
Have you tried to check to print with other PDF documents. Try open a different PDF document and check if you have option to print or you are able to see the list to choose the printer to print with.

I need to make a pdf document, made in photoshop, 'page turn' and then add it to my website. I know I can do this in indesign but indesign will not open pdf files for some inexplicable reason. Any ideas how I can do it without completely starting again?

I need to make a pdf document, already made in photoshop, 'page turn' and then add it to my website as an e-brochure. I know I can do this in indesign but indesign will not open pdf files for some inexplicable reason. Any ideas how I can do it without completely starting again?

Hello waitingone,
please try this (all terms are translated from my German programs to my best knowledge):
1. Did the creator of the pdf file enable the import options?
2. See import options: choose an other visibility option for your layer.
3. Let you show the import options and click into one with a black background and try these out (often a gray is selected).
4. See trimming: try the different modes there. Often works: "Media".
5. Is the pdf file (eg from Word) correctly created?
6. Is the PDF file protected? >>> no import possible.
7. If that does not help, store the pdf file in Acrobat, repair possible errors, run the PDF Optimizer before placing in InDesign.
Good luck!

Error in maintenence optimizer while selecting files for download for EHP4

HI,
We are trying to download files for upgrade of ECC (HCM) and Portal systems from EHP3 to EHP4.
This download we are doing through the Solman 7.0. Solman is currently at 7.0 but going to be upgraded soon to EHP1.
Problem is that after we select the files for download of ECC EHP4, in step 2.1 i.e. 'choose stack', the next screen shows error as "Only one EhP release is allowed additionally".
Is this because the Solman is not upgraded to EHP1 yet or soem other reason?
Please let us know.
Thanks for your time.
Thanks & Regards,
Kunal.

..have a look at the How-To Install EHP4 Guide (http://service.sap.com/~sapidb/011000358700000293582009E.PDF)
3.4.2 Only one EHP release is allowed
Issue: You get the error message: u201COnly one EHP release is allowedu201D
Reason: This problem is documented in SAP Note 1139602.
If you get this error message, then you already have installed another SAP enhancement package on this system before (for example SAP enhancement package 3 for SAP ERP 6.0).
The error tells you that you have chosen too few technical usages. If you continued with this selection, you would not update all of the software components to SAP enhancement package 4 that are currently on SAP enhancement package 3. So in the end, some software components would be on SAP enhancement package 3 while others would be on SAP enhancement package 4. That way you would have several SAP enhancement package versions in one system, which is a state that is not supported.
Solution: SAP Solution Manager Maintenance Optimizer requests you to select more technical usages and proposes a list for you to choose from.
If you implement SAP Note 1287216, then Maintenance Optimizer automatically pre-selects the technical usages that are already installed on the system. In the example here, the technical usage Central Applications has been installed on a previous version of SAP enhancement packages.
In rare cases you still get the error after accepting what SAP Solution Manager proposes. The reason for this is that you updated software components without properly covering technical usages.
Hope that helps - best regards,
Christian.

How to upload words, exel, PDF file from the pc via itune to the iPad, and where will the uploaded file be saved? In the apps?

How to upload words, exel, PDF file from the pc via itune to the iPad, and where will the uploaded file be saved? In the apps?

You will need an app (or apps) on your iPad that is capable of reading the documents, as they will be saved with the app - if you don't have such an app then there is nothing to transfer them to or to read/access them.
One method of transferring them is toconnect your iPad to your computer's iTunes, select it's app tab, and then scroll to the bottom of it - you should the apps That you've got that are capable of file-sharing (if you've got any). Selecting/high-lighting one of them should then allow you to add files to it via the box to the right of it.
An alternative way to get the documents onto your iPad is if the app that you want to transfer them to has a wifi setting, which will then allow you to transfer the documents wirelessly. You can also send the documents to yourself as attachments and then use Mail's 'open in' facility to copy them into your chosen app.
Edit : more info on file sharing from the manual :
File Sharing lets you transfer files between iPad and your computer. You can share files created with a compatible app and saved in a supported format.
Apps that support file sharing appear in the File Sharing Apps list in iTunes. For each app, the Files list shows the documents that are on iPad. See the app’s documentation for how it shares files; not all apps support this feature.
Connect iPad to your computer.
In iTunes, select iPad in the Devices list, then click Apps at the top of the screen.
In the File Sharing section, select an app from the list on the left.
On the right, select the file you want to transfer, then click “Save to” and choose a destination on your computer.
Transfer a file from your computer to iPad:
Connect iPad to your computer.
In iTunes, select iPad in the Devices list, then click Apps at the top of the screen.
In the File Sharing section, click Add.
Select a file, then click Choose (Mac) or OK (PC).
The file is transferred to your device and can be opened using an app that supports that file type. To transfer more than one file, select each additional file.
Delete a file from iPad: Select the file in the Files list, then tap Delete.

When forwarding Word or PDF Files they get corrupted

I have several users that when they forward either a word document of a pdf file they get corrupted. If I forward directly from Outlook (2007) they are perfectly fine.
Anybody know what is happening? We tend to send a lot of word/pdf files.
Thanks

Okay, let me be specific here.
I have:
Adobe Technical Communication Suite 2 fully installed and licensed to this computer.
I also have an older version of Robohelp 7 installed.
Both have all the updates done.
The machine also has:
MS Office 2003
and the updated Adobe Distiller program.
What I want to do is to "print" - IE, generate - a Word document version AND a PDF version of my current Robohelp 8 project.
(Ignore this part, because this is not the issue. The generation of the files is the issue. Nothing else. The block, and the problem is that I cannot get Word or PDF files to generate from Robohelp 8.)
What I will do with this is convert the Word doc BACK to Robohelp 7, AND import the Word doc in FrameMaker.
(But again, we do not care about what I'm going to do with the files. The end result is not important. What is important, again, is:)
I cannot "print" - IE, generate, a Word document AND/OR a PDF version of my current Robohelp 8 project from the generate dialogue box.
I'm hoping that this clarifies the issue, since there are no add-ons to what I'm trying to do here. I'm not dancing the angels around the head of the legacy pin, I'm not trying to open a R8 in R7, I'm not trying to cure cancer or shoot a bulls-eye at 1,200 feet.
I am trying to "print", IE, generate, a Word document OR a PDF from my current Robohelp 8 environment and cannot do so.
(Sorry for the excessive description, but it looked like we were branching off into realms that weren't the problem at all.)
In response to Peter - I did try a sample project, and the same issue occurs. When I click "Printed Documentation" in either of the projects, a popup comes up that says "Parameter is Incorrect". This is an unmodified item that I'm opening - stock off the installation.

How do I translate word perfect old files for my new iMac?

How do I translate Word Perfect old files for my new iMac? They are transferred from a 13-year-old Dell. My McLink did not work.
Thanks.

The current version of the free LibreOffice continues to support Word Perfect documents. OpenOffice had to drop this support due to licensing issues. LO installs in two places: /Applications and your local Library/Application Support directory. Simple to install. Simple to remove. Good PDF documentation from their site. It is a capable MS Office replacement.
I just opened a wpd legal deposition in LO and it looked fine.

How do you prepare a PDF file for 4 signatures & dates?

How do you prepare a PDF file for 4 signatures & dates?

Hi,
You can achieve this by using text tags. EchoSign Text Tags are specially formatted text that can be placed anywhere within the content of your
document specifying the location, size, type of fields such as signature and initial fields, check boxes, radio buttons and form fields, and advanced optional field processing rules. Text Tags can also be used as names of PDF Form fields.
Text Tags are converted into EchoSign form fields when the document is sent for signature or uploaded to the EchoSign Document Library. EchoSign Text Tags can be placed in any document type such as PDF, Microsoft Word, PowerPoint, Excel and text files (.txt, .rtf)
Please refer to page 5 ( date) and 10 (signature) of the Creating Adobe Echosign Forms With Text Tags.The document can be found here
Thanks,
Jat
