Cant open pdf documents attached to an email

Hi All,
Since updating Adobe reader to Version 9 I am unable to open any pdf documents attached to emails (outlook express). If I want to open the documents I have to first save the attachments to a different location eg My documents, and then go to that location to open them. If I try to open the pdf in the email the following message is displayed "Do you want to open this File?" after clicking yes the following message comes up "This file does not have a program associated with it for performing this function. Create an association in the folder options control panel"
PDF is already in the folder options
Any ideas?
Toni

Thanks. I disabled Protected Mode, and I was able to open the pdf attachment. Just to make sure, I enabled it and then disabled it again, and when I tried to open the attachment, it did as before – Adobe Reader (Not Responding) and Internal Error message. Tried it several more times, (enable and then disable Protected Mode) and each time, Adobe Reader wouldn’t launch (Not Responding, Internal Error).

How do I view/print a pdf document in an email? I'm not getting the little hand icon.

How do I view/print a pdf document in an email? I'm not getting the little hand icon.

Ah, yes, I'm using Adobe Reader! That makes sense. Thanks so much for your reply. At the moment, I scan Word documents into my computer and they're automatically converted to PDFs. If I had Adobe Acrobat on my computer, and scanned in documents, would they open in Reader automatically or could I open them in Acrobat and therefore add password protection?

Encypting Pdf document sent through email from BO WEBI

Hi,
Encypting Pdf document sent through email from BO WEBI . Is there any sdk scripts/3rd part tools to do this.
Thanks
Ranjith

Hello Ranjith,
There is no native functionality for encrypting a PDF document from within BusinessObjects Enterprise. Additionally, none of the BOE SDKs are able to encrypt a PDF document either. Generally speaking, if it is not possible in the product (BOE) it's not possible with the various SDKs.
I am not aware of any third party tools that can do this from inside BOE either. If you haven't done so already you may want to post a question to the [Business Objects Board|http://www.forumtopics.com/busobj/index.php?sid=1037068e7b26619422be6a7b18a8c2ee] (BOB) to see if anyone there has a suggestion.
Sincerely,

Incorrect PO pdf document attached.

I am working on the workflow issue
This is on 11.5.10.
The issue here is in the notification which is send to the requester has incorrect PO pdf document attached.
For ex : PO 100 ,has the pdf attachment of 130.(attached are the PDF files for both POs)
is there anything to do with work flow customization

We are seeing the same problem. The pdf document is being generated in a 2 step process. In step 1, an oracle rdf report is running to generate xml data. In step 2, the BI Publisher layout is applied.
When we do Inquire > View Document, step 1 is being skipped and the cached version of the xml data is being processed in step 2.
Running the Print PO report manually executes both steps 1 and 2 and generates the desired report. However it doesn't refresh the cache. An Inquire > View Document still shows the old data.
The only way we have found to fix Inquire > View Document is to generate a new PO revision. This reloads the cache.

Attaching additional BLOB pdf document to an email snet by BIP Bursting

Hi,
I am trying to attach an additional pdf document which is stored in the database as a BLOB to an email that is sent via BIP bursting. I am using Oracle Applications v11.5.10.2. Does anyone have any input on how to do this or if its possible? Basically, I am generating a BIP report and sending it in an email using the Bursting process within BIP, but I want to attach an additional .pdf document to the same email. Any help on this would be greatly appreciated.
Regards,
Ray

Dynamic Delivery Content
You can reference information in the XML data to be put into the delivery content. This
takes the same format described above (that is, ${ELEMENT}).
For example, suppose you wanted to burst a document to employees via e-mail and
personalize the e-mail by using the employee's name in the subject line. Assuming the
employee's name is held in an element called ENAME, you could use ${ENAME} to
reference the employee's name in the control file as follows:
subject="Employee Details for ${ENAME}"
Sample Control File
The following sample control file shows an example control file to split data based on
an EMPLOYEE element and send an e-mail to each employee with their own data. The
sample file is annotated.
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<xapi:requestset xmlns:xapi="[http://xmlns.oracle.com/oxp/xapi]">
<xapi:request select="/EMPLOYEES/EMPLOYEE"><! - This sets the bursting
element i.e., EMPLOYEE - >
<xapi:delivery>
<xapi:email server="rgmamersmtp.oraclecorp.com" port="25"
from="[[email protected]|mailto:[email protected]]" reply-to ="[[email protected]|mailto:[email protected]]">
<xapi:message id="123" to="${EMAIL}" cc="${EMAIL_ALL}"
attachment="true" subject="Employee Details
for ${ENAME}"> Mr. ${ENAME}, Please review the
attached document</xapi:message><! - This assigns a delivery id
of '123'. It also sets the e-mail
address of the employee and a cc copy to a parameter value
EMAIL_ALL; this might be a manager's e-mail. The employee's
name (ENAME) can also be used in the subject/body
of the email. - ></xapi:email>
</xapi:delivery>
<xapi:document output-type="pdf" delivery="123">
<xapi:template type="rtf" location="/usr/tmp/empGeneric.rtf">
<xapi:template type="rtf" location="/usr/tmp/empDet.rtf"
filter=".//EMPLOYEE[ENAME='SMITH']" ><! - Employees with the name
SMITH will have
the empDet template applied - >
</xapi:template>
</xapi:document>
</xapi:request>
</xapi:requestset>

Word Documents attached to email

I am running sun ONE messanger latest patches and my problem is as follows:
I have an email with a Word document attached ... I get an error when I try to open the attachement if I view the message in IE6 ... this issue is reproduceable every time across multiple versions of the OS. I can open the attachment in mozilla, firebird, netscape and opera on the same machine. I can also open the attachment in Outlook ....
Does any body know what microsoft has done that stops the attachment from opening ... other attachments ... visio, pdf, txt, xls all open
I feel like the guy that goes to the doctor and says ....
Doctor it hurts when I do this
and the doctor replies
Then don't do that.
I would be happy if IE disappeared from the planet but my boss lives in the browser and wants his word attachemnts to open up

Right you are and thats why I am here because I only see this behaviour in Sun ONE Message Server (iMS) ... To test this I have created a web page like this
<HTML>
<HEAD>
</HEAD>
<BODY>
This is a test <BR>
junk.doc
</BODY>
</HTML>
I can in IE6 go to this page and click on the link which then opens word and loads the document junk.doc .... so this is an issue of something that the http server in iMS is doing. I was wondering if anyone else on this forum has encountered this problem. Is this an issue of the iMS server seting the Content Expiration in the HTTP headers? Does microsoft deliberatly sabotage the download because it is coming from iMS?
This behaviour appears in all IE6 browsers on several versions of windows. Could somebody else in the Forum run a check against their iMS and see if this is an issue across the board?

Entire pdf is attached to email using submit button

Hi everyone,
When I was using Acrobabt 9 and I enabled usage rights in adobe reader for a pdf file containing a form, if that form contained a submit by email button, the form data was the only thing that got attached to the email.
I just tried enabling usage rights in adobe reader in Acrobat X and it seems that now when an submit by email button is pressed, the whole pdf is attached to the email.
Is this something that's new to Acrobat X? Is Adobe now allowing the whole pdf to be attached?
Appreciate any help.

After creating the button, I chose the submit a form action in the properties dialogue box. I just checked and the export format is set to the complete pdf document.
Was this available in Acrobat 9 or is it something new in X? From memory, I thought that submitting the entire document by email was not allowed in earlier versions and that you needed to purchase an enterprise solution to get it to work.
Thanks

Creating pdf and attaching to email

Hello,
I am trying to write a script to help manual work and am stuck at below point:
When click save in SAP I get pdf document generated (nhremote). What I would like to do is to somehow automatically save it on my drive and attach it in the new email that is generated after each save.
Script end:
'session.findById("wnd[1]/usr/btnSPOP-VAROPTION1").press - SAVING the changes and pdf is generated at this point. takes some time to popup.
'Set MyApp = CreateObject("Outlook.Application")
'Set MyItem = MyApp.CreateItem(0) 'olMailItem
'With MyItem
'.To = "[email protected]"
'.Subject = "Subject"
'.ReadReceiptRequested = False
'.HTMLBody = RDD
'End With
'MyItem.Display
is there any way I can put action to save and attach saved file to the email? Also please keep in mind that the script is looped and it does this for many documents. Since NHREMOTE to generate pdf usually takes sometime and is a popup window I'm afraid it can be very complicated and mess up easily.

This script starts the TAC SE38 and loads the Report PROGDELE. It exports the report as PDF and sends the PDF file via e-mail to hugo.bambi.
All you have to do, to try this script, is to customize your SE38 view, that the shortcut Shift+F5 ist set to File.ExportPDF.
You see, it is possible to save a PDF from SAP and to send it as e-mail attachment . Also you see it is possible to handle SAP dialog windows. And it should be not a great problem to do this steps in loop for more than one document.
Let us know your result.

How is possible to save a pdf document from a email to the memory of my Nokia 520?

I installed Adobe Reader to read the pdf documents present in the memory of my Nokia Lumia 520 and those arrive by email.
Particulary important for is to save, the pdf that arrive by email, in the memory of my phone but I didn't understand how it is possible.
Someone can help me?
Thank you
Mauro

Now it's impossible to save PDF files to memory or SD card because Windows Phone 8 simply doesn't allow this action for 3d party apps.
That's why all available readers can't do it.

Send word or pdf document as HTML email

Hello all,
we have word documents (on a local file) that we want to send via SAP as HTML email, i.e. we need the content of the word document in the email body. The documents also contain images. With the class cl_bcs I can send mails including attachments and also pure HTML but I don't know how to convert the word or pdf document into HTML and how to process it to get the images in the correct way. Is there perhaps a more direct way to achieve the goal to mail the word documents? Is there anybody who can help?
Thank you very much and best regards
Frank

First, as you guessed, most (all?) mail clients don't display "complex" documents (doc, xls, pdf, etc.) inside a mail, they are always provided as attachments. Only simple documents like images can be directly displayed.
SAP's job is not to convert from a format to another, especially .DOC and .PDF formats, which are rather complex.
You'd better look at specialized third-party softwares. Note that SAP has a connection tool called BC-XDC (eXternal Document Converter) which is used to connect these third-party softwares to SAP. You may look at the certified softwares using this connection tool.
Notes: if the .DOC and .PDF documents are generated by one of your programs, prefer to modify them to generate the documents in another format (HTML) instead of converting them. I can't say much as I don't know your exact scenario.
There is also SO_RTF_TO_HTM (and CONVERT_TEXT maybe) function module, but I wouldn't expect much of it.
