Writing XMP to multiple file formats (PDF, JPEG, TIFF, etc)

Hi,
I am developing a server-side component that embeds XMP data into a file (of various formats) and then provides these files for client download.
I have been using the XMP toolkit for generating the metadata, however i now have the problem of getting this metadata into the relevant file. I could always develop this myself but it seems like a huge amount of work. So to make my life easier, does anyone know of any toolkits (from adobe or otherwise) that support writing XMP data into different file formats (PDF, JPEG, TIFF, AIFF, MPEG etc) ??
I am developing in Java so I would prefer Java libraries, however I can always use JNI calls to C/C++ (as i have with the XMP toolkit).
Any help would be very appreciated.
Regards,
Jude

Greetings,
I think we should standardize some information, I know for a fack, that I will support adding XMP metadata in the HDF, RIFF, IFF and OLE file formats. If you have any specific suggestions on the chunk information or signature information that I should use, let me know?
For my part, I was thinking of adding RIFF,IFF chunks with the name \ xmp in those file formats. For OLE, maybe an added stream with the xmp name (in UTF-16).
Comments welcome everyone!

Multiple File format Extension

I have created Icon button i.e. Image on the button in Developer Suit 10g.
My question is that here I can only use one Extension in this file default.icons.iconextension=GIF
but I want to use multiple file formats, Can anyone help me
note this file is in the following path
E:\DevSuiteHome_1\forms\java\oracle\forms\registry
Please.

Technically, you can use almost any web supported format (gif, jpg, jpeg, png). The entry in Registry.dat is a default. Meaning if an extension is not provided, .gif will be assumed.
This can be easily proven. Create a large button on a canvas and set it to Iconic=Yes. For the image file name, enter a complete url to an image. For example:
http://www.oracle.com/ocom/groups/public/@otn/documents/digitalasset/439416.png
You can even use animated gifs on a button. Try this one:
http://www.animatedgif.net/computers/a_10mailput_e0.gif
There are some restrictions. For example you cannot use images with transparent backgrounds. These will appear black. You can also not use images with some compressions types.

Multiple File formats of the same Video

I currently have two files for movies. One file is for my Apple TV the other is for my iPad/iPhone. Is there any way to filter the iPad/iPhone versions so they are not selectable on Apple TV?
The only solution I can think of is making two libraries, but that seems overly complex for a simple request.

- Is there an Illustrator script that exports multiple file formats at the same time?
- We need an Illustrator script that takes an AI file and spits out an .eps, .jpg (for print), multiple .png sizes for web, and .pdf.
I personally don't recall seeing such a script that does all those things simultaneously, however you can find examples of each (like the few you have already discovered) as a starting point for creating such a script. If you search, here or elsewhere along with reading the scripting documentation and the examples provided in there you should find everything you need to get started and accomplish such a script.

How do I use "Generate" to produce multiple file formats from the "Default" layer?

I have a Photoshop file with ~50 layers, each with unique file names for images I want to create. I want to produce in both .png and .svg file formats for each layer.
Rather than adding the code to each layer individually can multiple file formats be assigned on the "Default" layer? What is the correct syntax to do that?
Something like:
default 100% .png, svg/ *.svg
... to generate the .png versions and then also create a folder called "svg" that contains all the .svg versions of those images?

Dear Thomas,
I entered TM and found the sparsebundle under the Filesync library. However, it appears NOT to be recoverable and I tried double clicking on it but it doesnt do anything other than show a summary of what it is.
By the way, I really do appreciate your comments and agree completely. Something strange happened with my syncing of Idisk (which is set to "automatic"). It has been working fine for years. But for some reason, it stopped two days ago and did not let me know. When I tried to put something manually on it (through drag/drop), it never showed up on the Idisk on the cloud which made me notice and check it out by going to Mobileme through the browser. I then went to the tech service for Idisk and they explained that something probably got corrupted so just hit STOP syncing and then hit Automatic again. Which is what I did. Then everything from the cloud went to my Idisk on my computer and for some reason, the latest version of my excel spread sheet for attendance showed two days ago, not last night. so I lost wed/thursday classes. I KNOW it was on my Laptop which is backed up to TM every morning.. Thats why I believe that the latest file IS on my TM backup for this morning. But I can't get to it. Any other help would be appreciated.

How do I create. A single PDF from multiple files? PDF pack on iOS

How do I create. A single PDF from multiple files? PDF pack on iOS
The primary reason I signed up for. PDF Pack was to create a single PDF from multiple image files and other PDFs .
Is this possible? If so how
thanks in advance

Hi Rich,
The combine files feature isn't available when you're using Reader for iOS. However, you can log on to the web interface at Adobe Acrobat.com using your Adobe ID and credentials, and use the Combine Files feature there.
Please let us know if you need further assistance.

Photoshop File Formats.pdf .... where is it?

Hello
I am looking at the API documentation, and it refers to an external file called Photoshop File Formats.pdf. Since I wanted to read and write PSD files, rather than actually interfacing with Photoshop, I think I may just want to use this document as a resource to do this.
Anyone know where this document can be found?
Thanks

Click on "Get access to Photoshop SDK" on the following web site http://partners.adobe.com/public/developer/photoshop/devcenter.html
Then ask specifically for the "file formats document" and that you want to read and write PSD files in your application.

Writing Data to Multiple Files

Hi,
I got a problem while writing the data to multiple files.
Actually my requirement is,
I want to read the data from multiple files and retrieve the required data from those and save that data into separate files.
Meaning if i read the data from "D:\kiran\kk\123\kiran.txt" the retrieved data should be saved in "D:\kiran\kk\kiran.txt" the file name should be created with the input file name.
here is my code,
//here i am taking the files into loop
for(int i=0;i<files.length;i++){
try{
//reading the files
BufferedReader br=new BufferedReader(new FileReader(files));
//creating a new file for writing the retrieved data
pw=new PrintWriter("D:\\Kiran\\kk"+File.separator.concat(str[i]));
String line=br.readLine();
while(line!=null){
line=br.readLine();
//here i am matching the required data
Matcher m = Pattern.compile("name(\\s*\\W*\\w*\\W*.\\w*.)|invoice (\\W*(\\d+))|amount(\\W*(\\d+),\\d*)|site(\\s*Rs\\.[\\d]*,[\\d]*/-)", Pattern.CASE_INSENSITIVE).matcher(line);
while(m.find()){
System.out.println(m.group());
//here printing the retrieved data to a file
pw.println(m.group());
br.close();
but i am ending up with some issues.
Data is reading properly from all the files, but when i write that data into individual files the data which is retrieved from last file is only printing into the file which is created last.
Please help me regarding this,
Thanks,
Kiran

D:\kiran\kk\123\
In this folder some files are there say,
kk.txt,kiran.txt,praveen.txt and so on, i can read the entire data from those files and also retrieving the required data like name,data etc. from all the files. Now the retrieved data should be stored in individual files means, if the data is retrieved from kk.txt then that particular data should be stored in the file with the same file name but in different location likewise it should happen for all the files those are in that folder.
Thanks,
Kiran

Multiple file formats and stacking

Like many on this forum I need to keep track of the original RAW and other formats of the same file. This is for several reasons:
1. I have a large number of already converted RAW files into JPG and TIFF files, which I want to manage in the LR library.
2. As I go forward in time, I want to keep my RAW files, with the associated metadata edits and an exported JPG or TIFF copy, which is used by other programs and sent to others on short notice. I want the LR library to manage these as well. I do not want to have to go through an LR export process every time I want to use a JPG or TIFF in another application.
At present, if I rename the JPG and TIFF files (ie filename_LR.JPG) then I can import them into the same folder. However, the auto-stack feature does not work for a capture time between stacks of zero seconds, even though the capture time is the same. The program logic appears to be (greater than 0) where it should be (greater than or equals 0). If I set the capture time between stacks to 1 second then I get multiple different photos in the stack when there is less than 1 second between captures.
LR team - please give this some thought. I am confident you can come up with an elegant solution to the multiple file copies in the same or diferent formats, and a grouping mechanism, preferably in addition to the stacking feature (the stacking feature appears to really be meant to group similar photos). This feature should work in conjunction with import. The grouping of multiple file versions at the same capture time should also work across folders, so that LR does not impose upon existing file management structures.
Thanks
Rory

Unable to Open Photos - JPEG, TIFF, etc... HELP!

I have been using PS CS4 for well over a year and, until this week, it has been flawless. Now, all of a sudden, when I try to open a photo file from PS nothing happens. Ditto for selecting "Edit In" (Photoshop) from within LightRoom... In this case PS opens normally from LR but, again, no photo appears. The problem applies to all formats...TIFF, JPEG, etc.
I have tried all my other programs (Canon DPP, DxOptics Pro, MS Word (Photo import and LightRoom), and others and in all cases ALL my photos open normally. It is limited to just to opening in PS CS4.
I have tested my drives, checked Program Compatibility, and have run every diagnostic program I can think of in WIN7 with no abnormal indications on any of them. I went through the Sart-Up items and nothing has changed. I have even Uninstalled the program and re-installed it. When the problem occurs I can re-start the computer and sometimes I am able to open photos for a while and then... nothing...again, only in PS. Have reset Prefereces continually and removed all Plug-Ins... Also disabled the "AERO" function within WIN7. The computer and all other programs operates perfectly in all other respects... no slow down, no errors.
I have not added any other software.
What have I missed? Is there some "Hidden" file somewhere that has been corrupted and wasn't addressed when I re-installed the program?
Would appreciate any help possible...

RE: Your Reply I have uded Dual Screen forever... No changes have been made to the system or it's contents...The Preference Re-Set was Ctrl/Alt/Shift to reset PS Preferences. I think the important point is that my photos are recognized in all my other photo programs and MS Word (Import Photos). PS is the only program that is failing to open the files (JPEG, TIFF").I can open PS and use Adobe Bridge to bring up a CR2 RAW file (it does) but when I click "Open" to present it in PS the photo will not come up.
I checked the WIN7 Error Log and it shows several PS failures and gives an Error about 40 digits long and then says "Check WIN7 Action Center". I checked the site and went through all the Compatibility, System, Software checks and they were normal. I also went into Win Explorer and checked all the computer Components/Conflicts/ Memory/ etc. and they were all either "O.K", "Normal", or "Operating Normally". In all other respects the computer is absolutely normal.
Darned if I can figure it out.

Convert/join multiple file formats (doc, pdf, text) into 1 single PDF/A using web services

We would like to purchase LiveCycle for the PDF Generator feature, but we want to know if it will meet our technical requirements.
We would like to convert a PDF, an HTML, a DOCX, and some custom text into 1 single PDF/A. Basically: joining 3 different files types and some text into 1 very long PDF/A file. Can we do this type of join?
Also, we would like to install LiveCycle on a central server and then call a web service or use an API where we can input the 3 different files and the text and as output we would get 1 PDF/A back. Obviously there might be intermediary steps, but in essence we need to be able to do this conversion from our custom code by calling some LiveCycle API.
Thanks!

You can use Assembler service with PDFGenerator. There is support for Web Service endpoints(SOAP). Please go through this for details : http://help.adobe.com/en_US/livecycle/11.0/Overview/lc_overview_ds.pdf

Adobe Acrobat, Print multiple files to PDF and merge open files to closed files?

I have Adobe Acrobat XI Professional.
Print to PDF – How can this be done for more than 15 documents at a time? Right now, if I select 16 or more documents, I cannot ‘right click’ and choose ‘print’. Is this a setting issue? If I have many documents I need to print to PDF at once, it would be helpful if there wasn’t this limitation. Background: This needs to be done to PDF files created from Adobe Live Cycle (and possibly from other software) because the files cannot be merged unless they are ‘printed to PDF’ first. I don't know an alternate way to merge these files.
Also, if I have a multi-page PDF open and I need to parse out the pages to different files, is it possible to drag the selected pages out of the open PDF and hover over a closed PDF and have them added to the end of the closed PDF document? I don't know of a way to do this, but I thought I would check to see if anyone else was aware of a simpler way to parse pages from one document into several pre-existing documents without opening each and dragging the files between them.
Thanks!

Thank you for your response...I can do the additional step to combine them, the problem that I have is that the documents need to be in chronological order. If I print them to the pdf printer or export them, either way, windows sorts them and they are no longer chronological. While I can organize them when I combine them there are many times that there way too many that need combined into one pdf, making it a very inefficient and cumbersome process to do. So I was in hopes there was a way to just have the pdf printer create one file instead of one for each document, it would keep them in chronological order. I suppose I could number them on the print to keep them chronological - but when there are 75 or 100 documents it is a bit of a pain to sit there and respond to each document as it is being printed, and then need to do the additional step of combining. My goal in this process is to gain efficiency so thought I would see if anyone knew how to use the pdf printer to create the single file.

HELP PLEASE Acrobat Pro 8 for MAC PDF files printing all black pages (other file formats JPG and TIFF and XLS etc are fine)

Need to merge multiple files into pdf automatically

Guys,
I need to automate merging files into one pdf, i have looked everywhere and cannot seem to find an answer for it. I need to know if there is a command line tool for acrobat so i can use it in my batch file to combine files?

Hi Lauravill,
The free Adobe Reader cannot help you with the merging job. If you have Acrobat Reader then you can merge files into one pdf with the following steps-
Within Acrobat XI, select File > Create > Combine Files into a Single PDF.
Click Add Files and select the files you want to add.
Click, drag, and drop to reorder the files and pages. Double-click on a file to expand and rearrange individual pages. Press the Delete key to remove unwanted content.
When finished arranging the files, click Combine Files.
Select File > Save As > PDF.
Name your PDF file and click Save.
Let us know if you face any problemwith this or need extra support.
Thanks
