Wrong pdf file date

Adobe Acrobat Pro X is saving files with incorrect date (2008). How can I fix that?

You may want to follow along with this thread. Exact same problem except with Reader. See if you have any similarities.

Is it possible to read PDF file data by using Webdynpro Abap?

Hi,
I have an requirement, where customer will upload an PDF file on an application and i need to read some data from pdf file.
The pdf file contains only text data in tabular format.
In past i developed an application for uploading data from Excelshet by using WDA . But just wondering, whether it is possible to upload the data from Pdf file also. ( Also if not possible then what could be other way to read PDF file data in abap)
Regards
PG

NB - the "data" that is returned by these classes is the data as defined in an adobe form - it doesn't return the content of non-form PDF documents.
The PDF must be an interactive form ( although that doesn't restrict you to using the SAP process for creating the form is my understanding - but I could be wrong. )
Edit - I was wrong! ONLY PDF documents that have been created by the ADS can have data extracted using these classes. So unless you are using Adobe interactive forms - then you will get no value from this functionality - and if you're using AIF then you're probably just use the standard UI element

Conversion of PDF file data into ABAP internal table

Hi all,
I am unable to convert the binary data into text format by using some function modules and classes .please find tthe function modules names and classes:
SCMS_BINARY_TO_TEXT,SCMS_BIN_TO_TEXT, CL_ABAP_CONV_IN_CE,CL_ABAP_CONV_OBJ. But these are not working as per my requirement.
My requirement is we need to upload PDF file (legecy file)which is saved under the PC into SAP and display the same PDF data into the adobe interactive form. For thise i have done coding by using above function modules and classes but i got the unwant on the adobe form i.e display lke "##############$$%%^^&&*((((()))%%%%%%###*^^&&***"
Thanks,
Ramana

I don't understand, the pdf is put into an internal table at
CALL FUNCTION 'CONVERT_OTFSPOOLJOB_2_PDF
the table is pdf and all info for the pdf is there already in a table?
if you continue the source code the only thing is that the table is combined with a file name and makes it happen that you get an actual file.
or do you want to have the pdf in a single field ?
or do you want to store the document on a server where the location is stored in an internal table ??
kind regards

Reader 9.2 won't print PDF Files (data execution prevention)

I just downloaded updates to reader 9.2 and now pdf files will not print. message of data execution prevention stops the printing process. Help me mister wizard!!!!!

Seems an awful lot of us are having the same problem. When I updated toV9.2 I got the DEP error. Never had a problem with V9.1.3 Try uninstalling 9.2 and installing V9.1.3. If that doesn't work try what some other users have done go back to V8.1.3. I wonder when the Adobe people are going to attend to this problem?

Trying to export pdf file data into Excel.

Dear Adobe Community,
I have a file that is 122 pages long and I am trying to export the data into Excel. When I try to copy the pdf info, it shows in Excel as a picture, not the specific data. I have Adobe Acrobat Professional 7.0 and the pdf version is 1.5 (Acrobat 6.x). The PDF producer is Adobe Acrobat 7.0 paper capture plug-in. Are are any suggestions on how to trasfer the data to Excel? Thanks in advance.
Neal
P.S. the file is attached so you can see the issues I am dealing with. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Unfortunately, the file is still in the checking queue. Do I understand you correctly that the PDF is actual text, or is it a scan? If you scanned it and got just the graphics, you have to run OCR before you can continue. I would do this on a copy of the scan file so that you can always go back to that file as you try things.

Wrong PDF file generated from FM 10 book

Sometimes when I generate a PDF from a FrameMaker 10 unstructured book, the generated PDF overwrites an existing file with a totally different name and location. After I try a few times without changing anything, it finally does it right. Any ideas?

If you really want to get to the bottom of what's grabbing and overwriting(?) your files, you could use Microsoft's Sysinternals Process Monitor (Procmon) available from here:
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/sysinternals/bb896645
You can configure the filters to watch what's going on in a folder or on a file, but it's a bit geeky to setup all the filters - it also logs a ton of data, so interpreting it or tracking down an event could also be tedious. If you have an IT department, they should be consulted and could help set this up.
Here is an article that details how to set up the Process Monitor to watch specific files:
http://www.veryant.com/support/phpkb/question.php?ID=136
Otherwise, just run Distiller with the Ask setting, to see if something odd is happening at this stage. If you're still getting mysterious deletions, then dig deeper with the Process Monitor.

How to output PDF files in a crystal Report

Hello,
I've some data stored in a database, they are PDFs files data.
How can I include them in a report
For example
I've a Table
MyTABLE with 2 Cols (Name STRING, data byte[]) (in fact it's a .NET/DataSet)
I would like to display the content of my table in a CR
I can include a static PDF in my report, but not a variable one.
Can anyone Help Me ?
Thanks
Marc

Something I don't understand here. PDF vs. .NET Dataset.
If the data is in a .NET Dataset; (in fact it's a .NET/DataSet)
Then all you should need to do is;
crReportDocument.Database.Tables(0).SetDataSource(dataSet.Tables("NAME_OF_TABLE"))
or
crReportDocument.SetDataSource(dataSet)
or
crReportDocument.SetDataSource(dataSet.Tables(0))
How the dataset is created or what is behind the dataset should not be of any consequence. To ensure you get the fresh data, either don't enable the "Saved Data" option, or use .Refresh in your code.

Reader 9.2 shuts down when trying to print PDF files

When trying to print (MS XP) PDF file" Data Execution" error message shuts down Reader. I have tried selecting/deselecting DEP from MS "performance" options and still get the same error message.
Any fixes for this problem?

Hi Masroor ,
Thank you very much for getting back to me with the "fix".
I removed 9.2 and installed 8.3 and can now print PDF files from Reader 8.3 with no problems.
Please let me know when the issues with 9.2/ MS are resolved. (I have checked and printer drivers are updated).
Thanks for your help.

PDF File opening error

Hi,
I have an BSP application in which I am fetching the pdf file data from an oracle table to a variable of data type xstring.
Now I have to display this xstring again in pdf format in this BSP. The pdf file is generated but while opening it is giving error "There is an error in opening this document.The file is damaged and could not be repaired".
What could be the reason.
My On initialisation code is as:

    cached_response->set_header_field( name =

Still the pdf file is not opening.

Create a FM that generates a PDF file.

Hello Evryone.
I have the following requirement.
I need to create a function module that given a Personnel Number would generate the payslip for that person based on an existing SE51 form and return the payslip as a PDF file, so that it could be used in WebDynpro.
Can any of you help me with this. How should I write this FM?
Thanks a lot in advance.
Francisco.

Cannot view pdf files on some site but Adobe plug-in test sites work and it is uo to date. What is wrong? Using FF5 under XP

A new Firefox window is opened when I click on pdf file but it is blank with no menu or toolbars. Have enabled plug-in and it seems ok.

I do not recall anything specific about other extensions preventing pdf use, so you will have to try them all. But first of all check again, just incase you merely needed to clear the cache and it is working again !
The quickest method is to repeatedly slice into 1/2s until you find the guilty add-on
Disable 1/2 of your add-ons and see if it works, if not working you know it is one of those you did not disable, disable 1/2 of them. (So you now have 3/4 disabled )
It is also probably a good idea to at the same time check add-ons and plugins are up-to date.
* Use Firefox button -> Add-ons |check plugins are up to date| <br/> or alternatively the link https://www.mozilla.com/en-US/plugincheck/

Interactive Report uses XML data saved in database for creating PDF files?

Hello all,
I installed Apache FOP to allow a PDF "Download" in the Interactive Reports.
Correct me if i'm wrong, when a PDF file is created with the Interactive Report option "Download", it uses a XML data to make it. Right ??
I would like know where in the database is this XML code located.
Regards Pedro.

After some searching i found that XML its stored as a BLOB and it is used as XML based report data and RTF or XSL-FO based report layout.
I didn't find yet where is located the XML used by Interactive Reports. If someone knows where in the APEX database is the XML located please share.
Regards Pedro.
