XML export changes names of art

I recently exported an InDesign file and noticed that the art names in the xml file had been truncated.
Is there a character limit for the names of art (similar to the names of pdf files for ftp transfer)??
Thanks
MG

I just did some testing and found that if you select the option <Original Images> in the Images tab of the export xml options then it seems to truncate both the art it copies into the Images folder and the xml href. See screen shot below.
If you leave this option unchecked, then it will not truncate the xml href code.
Could this be a bug?

PP7.1.0. XML Export missing REEL names - help!

Problem with FCP XML export from Premiere Pro 7.1.0
It's screwed up my worflow for editing Premiere from Proxies created in resolve.
All worked fine in PP CS6
Workflow
1. In Resolve: Create Quicktime Proxies from DNGS created with Raw Magic via 5DIII
2. Import my proxies into [b]Premiere CS6[/b]. Each Proxy comes in with the correct 'Tape Name' that matches the Reel name of the Clip in Resolve
3. Edit in premiere
4. FCP EXPORT .XML >>
5. Opens perfectly in Resolve. The editng Proxies arere-linked to the RAW DNGS inside resolve, using the <REEL>names (you can see them inside the attached XML). All is good.
But with Premiere CC 7.1.0
Opening XML in resolve gives me 'Failed to Link Because timecode extends do not match'
world of pain - I can't manually relink 100's of DNG in resolve.
Examning the xmls - Premiere CC 7.1.0 seems to have stopped exporting <REEL>
Could anyone please test/confirm with Premiere CC 7.1.0 & Resolve 10
I have attached the 'good' and 'bad' XML's. [see link]
Anyone having similar problems???
How can I downgrade to PP CC 7?

Has anyone found out a workaround for this? We're just about to head into 3 back to back projects!
We're still getting issues when trying to relink original Cinema DNGs from the proxies coming from an XML out of Premiere CC 7.2.1
I can manually link them from the media pool, but have to do each clip in the timeline individually!
Apart from re-exporting the Cinema DNGs as ProRes 422 HQs and linking these to the Premiere timeline (which king of defeats the object of recording RAW), does anyone know any work arounds?
I take it this is still an issue with Premiere not exporting Reel / Tape names in the XML.
EDLs do not work for us either.

What is the process of changing name of IT Resource Type without breaking..

I need to change the name of an IT Resource Type and at the same time include additional fields. I also have existing IT Resources that are provisioned that are of the old name. What I thought I could do was to use the Design Console, bring up the IT Resource Type and simply rename it. I did that. Once I did the rename I checked my existing process form and the IT Resource Field Lookup now shows the new IT Resource Type name. Ok, so everything looks good.
I now need to deploy this to other OIM systems. So, I exported out my IT Resource Type definition to one XML export file, and my Resource Object, Process Definition and PRocess Form and child forms to another XML export file.
Before I imported the XML files into the other OIM system, I first ran the Design Console and renamed by IT Resource Type to the new name. Then I imported the XML containing the IT Resource Type definition and this worked. My IT Resource Type now has additional fields.
However, when I tried to import the XML containing the Resource Object, Process Definition and Process forms, I get a dependency error that says it can't resolve the dependency on the old IT Resource Type name. Where did this come from? I checked the XML source, and sure enough it references the old IT Resource Type by name, but I can't figure out why it has that in there. But in any case, I manually edited the XML file and changed those references to the old IT Resource Type to the new name and tried to re-iimport that XML again. I still get the same dependency error.
Now I am really confused since my XML import is not referencing the old IT Resource type name any more, so where is this dependency coming from?
Does anyone have any ideas on this one?

Exporting parameter "name" of the FUNCTION 'SDIXML_DATA_TO_DOM'?

We've got one question for the Exporting parameter "name" of the FUNCTION 'SDIXML_DATA_TO_DOM' show below:
CALL FUNCTION 'SDIXML_DATA_TO_DOM'
    EXPORTING
      name         = 'anything?'
      dataobject   = it_tab[]
    IMPORTING
      data_as_dom = l_dom
    CHANGING
      document     = m_document
    EXCEPTIONS
      illegal_name = 1
      OTHERS       = 2.
We've got two questions about this function:
1. What is this function for? Just convert a SAP internal table to a document content?
2. What would be the value for the Exporting parameter "name"? We can give it any string value? or it just has to be the internal table name?
Thanks and we will give you reward points!

XML export character encoding bug

I've found a bug with Final Cut Pro XML export for any projects where media has a "#" in the name. Premiere Pro passes the "#" character into the file pathname instead of encoding it as "%23". The result is any clips with names such as "clip #1", "clip #2", "clip #3", etc. will be broken whe the XML is imported by another application. Compare:
Premiere Pro XML (does not work):
<pathurl>file://localhost/Volumes/P50%20Production%20Drive%202/CNMT%202011-12/CNMT%202011- 12%20Final%20Cut%20Pro%20Documents/Mom%20is%20Never%20Wrong/
CNMT_MomNeverWrong_Street_12_14_11/Clip%20#2.mov</pathurl>
Final Cut Pro XML (works properly):
<pathurl>file://localhost/Volumes/P50%20Production%20Drive%202/CNMT%202011-12/CNMT%202011- 12%20Final%20Cut%20Pro%20Documents/Mom%20is%20Never%20Wrong/
CNMT_MomNeverWrong_Street_12_14_11/Clip%20%232.mov</pathurl>
Note the difference in the clip name. A global search and replace of "#" with "%23" makes the Premiere Pro XML work properly.
This bug is easily repeatable and verifiable. I've filed a bug report but wanted to post here just to give folks a heads up.
Thanks for your help!

Description of elements and attributes in XML export.

Does anyone know where I can get a complete description of all the elements/attributes in the XML export from FCP. I found the DTDs (V 1-3), but it only gives me the names and overall structure. I need to know what the content means.
in particular I want to automate if I can- using XSLT and XSL-FO - the production of standard reporting that I am required to produce (manually) in a documentary production course.

its all on Apple's Developer site

XML export in latest Elements?

As I'm considering buying the new Premiere Elements I was wondering if the latest version is capable of exporting my timeline to a XML-file, so for example one of my friends who doesn't own Premiere Elements but doés own Final Cut of Premiere PRO can work on my 'Elements timeline. '

excaliburpjm
As to your question "XML export in latest Elements?" - No.
At this moment, Premiere Elements 12/12.1 is the current version. Adobe is expected to release a new version at the end of September 2014. No one but Adobe knows the feature set for the new version. And, that type of information is not released until the moment of release of the new version.
You could always file an Adobe Feature Request Bug Report Form.
https://www.adobe.com/cfusion/mmform/index.cfm?name=wishform&loc=en
From my perspective, that is a long term type solution.

XML export root node attriubute?

Hi
I need to use XML export extension to generate XML to something like this:
<photos path="images/">
<photo id="1" name="Photo 1" blabla ="" url="1.jpg">This is the optional description for photo 1</photo>
<photo id="2" name="Photo 2" blabla ="" url="2.jpg">This is the optional description for photo 2</photo>
<photo id="3" name="Photo 3" blabla ="" url="3.jpg">This is the optional description for photo 3</photo>
<photo id="4" name="Photo 4" blabla ="" url="4.jpg">This is the optional description for photo 4</photo>
<photo id="5" name="Photo 5" blabla ="" url="5.jpg">This is the optional description for photo 5</photo>
</photos>
The problem is the root nodes path="images/"
Is there a way to edit the XMLExport.class.php to do that?
I can in DW edit the $xmlExportObj->setRootNode('photos'); to $xmlExportObj->setRootNode('photos path="images/"');
But that gives an error because the end node looks like </photos path="images/">
Hopefully there is an easy fix for this
Regards
olle

Thank you both.
Acctually I found out a quick way. I edit the XMLExport.class.php
In the bottom just before the headers i just put in:
$document .= '</Photos>';
Instead of:
$document .= '</' . $this->rootNodeName . '>';
Off course this is not so dynamic. And can only be used for the page I want.
Otherwise I think that the Spry export to XML is great.

Script to export swatch names as tab-delimited text?

Howdy!
I run the screen printing department at a large shipping company, and as we grow, we're trying to integrate & computerize our workflow. 95% of the designs we have on file are built as spot color in Illustrator.
We're trying to automate some functions here in the screen-making department, such as a computer-generated inventory of screens on-hand. When we image a screen, it'll get a barcode sticker and we can then *beep* it into inventory. When we reclaim a screen we can *beep* it out of inventory. My thinking is that this would be a metric ton faster than wandering around on the shop floor looking for screens when clients placed re-orders.
In order to do that, I've got to generate a spreadsheet with the name of each color in the design in its own field of a spreadsheet, so that they can be used to populate our inventory system and get assigned SKU's.
I can do this manually, but it's going to take a long time. What I was sort of half-heartedly wishing for was a way to export the names of all the spot swatches used in a design as text, hopefully tab-delimited so that it can be copy/pasted into a spreadsheet.
Am I nuts?

Chris, you could give this a try? It was done for mac OS as a batch. It should…(if it works) write a tab delimited text file to your desktop. As is it works for all the illustrator .ai & pdf files of a given folder. It would append the text file for each directory which you run it on. If it works this could easily be changed to work with just an open doc.
var defaultFolder = new Folder ('~/Desktop');
var illFolder = defaultFolder.selectDlg('Please select your Folder of Illustrator files…');
if (illFolder != null) {
var fileList = illFolder.getFiles(fileFiltering);
if (fileList.length > 0) {
main(fileList);
} else {
alert('This Folder contains NO Illustrator files!');
} else {
alert('User Canceled!');
function main(fileObjs) {
for (var i = 0; i < fileObjs.length; i++) {
var fileName = fileObjs[i].name;
var colorList = customColors(fileObjs[i]);
var thisInfo = fileName + '\t' + colorList;
writeLog(thisInfo);
alert('Finished…');
function customColors(filePath) {
var colorList = '';
filePath.open('r');
while (filePath.tell() < filePath.length) {
var line = filePath.readln();
if (line.substring(0, 23) == '%%DocumentCustomColors:') {
colorList = line.substring(25, line.length-1) + '\t';
var nextLine ='';
while (nextLine.substring(0, 18) != '%%CMYKCustomColor:') {
var nextLine = filePath.readln();
if (nextLine.substring(0, 18) != '%%CMYKCustomColor:') {
colorList = colorList + nextLine.substring(5, nextLine.length-1) + '\t';
filePath.close();
return colorList;
function fileFiltering(fileObj) {
if (fileObj.creator == 'ART5' && fileObj.type == 'PDF ') {
return true;
} else {
return false;
function writeLog(info) {
try {
var log = new File('~/Desktop/Spot_Color_Info.txt');
log.open('e');
log.seek(0, 2);
log.write(info + '\n');
log.close()
catch (e) {
alert(e);

XML Export And Datasets

I was going through the tutorial on exporting recordset data as xml.
I created a page called export.asp I created a recordset, I ran the xml export, node mode, I took another page and tried to create a spry data set by using all files and choosing the export.asp page, but when I choose get schema it says:
Unable to locate or parse the xml source(-1, -1)
I'm connected to database recordset goes well, site is on a testing server
localhost.. I put the spryassets folder in manually and pointed to it in that interface, Am I missing something?

I do get an error browsing to the page, somthing like an error occured, please contact your system administrator, I have this on localhost right no if that changes anything, I also just typed the url in like http://localhost/Tport/export.asp and still cannot load the schema. Funny the tutorial did'nt mention nothing about browsing to the page and copying the url, unless I missed somthing, could it be somthing that need installed on windows vista to load locally? I am just at a loss, and realy want to get this to work, as I really see the potentual of this extention, with spry.

My iTunes won't let me change my album art

I have uploaded some home made songs into itunes and it doesn't let me change the album art. I can click it and tick the box and press ok but nothing happens. someone please help me, I am very annoyed by this.

Can't help you there. My iTunes is actually deleting artwork and shoving genre, album name, artist, and song title all into the same space. And the iPod keeps it that way for all eternity.

Workflow Definition - XML Export/Import

Gurus,
The XML Exported from one R/3 system and Imported in to another R/3 system (both are 6.20) always creates a new WF template. Is there a way I can overwrite the current version or generate a new version of an existing template with the import?
TIA,
Ramki Maley.

Yes, this is possible for the workflowlayout, not for the containerelements and event linkages.
PFTC
type in the workflow template of the workflow you want to copy
change
workflow builder.
now select a block and copy that one
now type in the upper left of the screen the workflow in which you want to paste the block, copying and pasting between workflow definitiions only works within 1 SAP session (as far as I know)
Kind regards, Rob Dielemans

How do I Change my Cover art?

Sorry. I am very new to this. My podcast shows a generic image and I would like to change it. I cannot figure out how to change the cover art. Can someone please help me. Thanks.

iTunes won't grab my image. It's been there all along, but iTunes seems to insist on the default purple podcast person. I've tried several things, but can't seem to get it to work. You can see it at:
http://feeds.feedburner.com/themiraclepodcastenhanced.xml
Originally, my image tag was exactly like the example above, because that's what it said in the tech specs. But the image wasn't exactly 300x300. So I changed it to 300x300, changed the filename, but still nothing.
Then someone on the forum suggested that I try closing the image tag like so:
<itunes:image href="link">Podcast Image</itunes:image>
So I tried, but still nothing. The image is coming up fine everywhere else where I've published, but not on iTunes. Any suggestions?

My podcast has been approved, how do change my cover art and add an author?

My podcast has been approved, how do change my cover art and add an author? I would appreciate any help
Thanks

In whatever method you are using to create your podcast there should be a place where you originally placed the image or its URL, and you can just replace this with a new one (which needs to have a different filename from the original). Similarly there should be a place to enter your name so that it goes in the 'itunes:author' tag.

"XML write" file name

I have some weird issue with XML exporting. One day ago I have created a new metadata field and have added it to my custom made metada group. And now, then the XML file is beeing exported, to name that XML file FCServer uses the newly created metadata field value. Some time ago it was using the "Title" value to name the XML files even if I was adding new metadata fields. It is important for me to keep XML filenames exactly the same as the title value. Is it fixible or maybe I can force Final Cut Server to use the title value for naming XML files?

Thank you for suggestion I have examined the metadata mapping, but there were no problems with it. So I have just tried to remove the metadata fields I have created and recreate them again. And it helped. So it was something wrong with the system then I was creating these metadata fields for the first time, I guess.
