Xml to formatted text

Hi
I have a XML file and I want to transform it in a formatted text (ps, RTF... no HTML) ready to be printed. I want to put tables and bold text in this document.
I have already seen SAX in Java but I only find examples to transform XML in HTML or XHTML...
Could someone help me please?
Thanx in advance
Elena

My main problem is that I have to convert in ps a very large number of data, so I found XSL-FO but also Java Printer Service (javax.print):
http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.4.2/docs/guide/jps/index.html
I could have a HTML input source and then transform it into ps.
Now the problem is I can't locate a suitable factory:
/* Use the preEdefined flavor for a GIF from an InputStream */
DocFlavor flavor = DocFlavor.INPUT_STREAM.TEXT_HTML_US_ASCII;
/* Specify the type of the output stream */
String psMimeType = DocFlavor.BYTE_ARRAY.POSTSCRIPT.getMimeType();
/* Locate factory which can export a GIF image stream as Postscript */
StreamPrintServiceFactory[] factories = StreamPrintServiceFactory.lookupStreamPrintServiceFactories(flavor, psMimeType);
if (factories.length == 0)
System.err.println("No suitable factories");
System.exit(0);
What do you think?
Thank you very much!
Elena

Is it possible to convert XML message in text format when we use HTTPS as the receiver adapter?
If yes, how?
Thanks!

Hi Mrudula,
As far as i know there are no content conversion methodology for HTTPS as the recevier adapter.
Also you can read through these links to confirm the same:

Attempt to process file failed with Exception in XML Parser-format problem

Hi all,
Iam getting an unusual error in the J2EE stack in XI.
And the message is:

My scenerio iam posting IDOC to a flat file with content conversion in the receiver side,the mapping got executed successfully and in the audit log i found that the error was after the 'Start converting XML document content to plain text'.
This means that error occured during content conversion of XML to the prescribed file format.
Can anyone suggest any better approach using which we may trace the junk data in IDoc. Manual adhoc approach could take time and is error prone.
Thanks in advance...
karun

Hi Bhavesh,
Thanks for the early reply. I checked the mapping and everything is fine and the output is also in valid XML format.
The audit log shows that the mapping got executed successfully and the error is after the step 'Start converting XML document content to plain text '. Is there any constraint in the file adapter regarding the message size for parsing.

[CS3 JS] Add formatted text

I'm working on a kind of templating script. This script adds text to the document depending on some input data, so the text can be almost anything.
My question is whether there is a convenient way to add formatted text to eg. a given text frame. By formatted I mean a character style applied to it.
I can think of a solution like inserting the text, then find it and then apply the character style.
Is there a simplier way, by which I mean a built in function or so?
Or has someone already written such a function?
If not then this work is waiting for me, and when ready I'll share the results :)
Thanks in advance for your help!
Balázs

AFAIK,
You can do as you suggested : place, find and apply style.
However, you may wonder about the process itself.
As you create a template, why not thinking about using xml (or tagged text maybe but don't really know nothing about that technique).
With xml, you can map a style to a tag. Hence, when you place the xml file, it will throw the text with the style applied at the first place.
What I want to say, is that, as you want to automate things, maybe you can consider richer solutions.

Import(insert) formatted text(HTML) into document

Hi guys, I have faceed with folowing problem:
how to insert into text frame formatted text ?
At Indesign desktop version this feature was able through pasting HTML from clippboard with appropriate settings of clippboard preferences. But at server version there is no such function.
I have also invesigated XML import: you can set up text and paragraph styles and map them with tags but this technique doesnt support nested styles for instance if you have xxx and appropriate styles "b" and "i" i will be applied to "xxx".
So I need to insert html as it did clipboard pasting.
Any thoughts ?

Questions:
1. What version of SQL Server are you using?
2. Are you required to use a specific DTS package or do you simply need to import data from a file to a table? You might also consider using the bcp utility or, if you are using 2005 or newer, integration services.
3. Is the uploading of files and the import of data a manual process or is it automated? Is there a user uploading one file at a time to your server or do you receive files in batches. Can you describe the work flow?
You might try the following if you are required to use DTS:
1. Upload your text file with CFFILE, putting in the directory expected by your DTS package.
2. Rename the file to the name required by your DTS package
3. Use CFEXECUTE to run the DTS package by calling dtsrun at the command line.

Output required as formatted text (space delimited)

I need to get the output of a query in a strictly defined space delimited text format. Can anyone advise if that is directly possible in BIP? Currently the method I am using is that I have created an excel template specifying all the formats (column width, number format, etc.), then during runtime, I run the report, open it in excel (with macros disabled), do a "Save As" to save it as a .prn file (Formatted text file), then rename the prn file to .txt
This works although it is rather cumbersome. Any suggestions for simplifying the process?
Thanks
MS

Thanks Vetsrini, this is precisely what I was looking for. But somehow I am not able to fit things together. I made the rtf format and uploaded into BIP as etext template, but when I view, it doesn't say anything. I saw one of your earlier posts where you had replied to a member's similar query, you had told that there is some problem with the template. Is there any log on the server where the errors are logged?
And can you give the format for a simple query with just, say, 2 fields - empno and name (6 chars and 25 chars)? It would be great if you give the sample XML and the etext template. The one from the link you sent looks a bit complex.
Thanking you in anticipation.

Need help formatting text field default value

Hello,
I've received a customer request to put default text into the Value section of a text field. They're requesting that the default text include line breaks, bullets, etc. I added a Text Field object and added the default text to the Object tab > Value tab Default field but can't figure out how to add line breaks, etc.
Thanks in advance,
Saskia

Hi,
this is possible but not doable with the UI of Designer.
The workaround is as follows:
1. Create a text, enter your default text with all the formattings you need (text color, bold text, line breaks etc.)
2. Create a text field and enter any word as default value. Let's say "Default".
3. Select the text and the switch to the XML Source view.
There you will find all the formatted text between the <value> tags such as:
<value>
 <exData contentType="text/html">
 <body xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" xmlns:xfa="http://www.xfa.org/schema/xfa-data/1.0/">This is default Text • with RichText formatting.</body>
 </exData>
</value>
4. Select the whole code between the <value> tags and copy it to the clipboard (ctrl + c).
5. Go to the Design View, select the text field, go back to the XML Source view.
6. There you'll also find the value <tags> and your default value you entered before.
<value>
 <text>Default</text>
</value>
7. Select this code section and paste the value copied before to the clipboard by pressing ctrl + v.
8. That's it. When you now go back to the Design View your text field shows a formatted RichText as defaul text.

Formatting text in the Notes Pane

Does anyone know if there is a way to format the text in the
Notes Pane window?

Depending on which version of the plug-in you have, there are
a couple of directions you can take:
With Presenter 6.x, you can incorporate bolding and
italicizing of your notes while authoring in PowerPoint. As far as
I know (at least having tested this with Presenter 6.0 on a Vista
machine running PowerPoint 2007), you still can't format notes
beyond the simple application of bolding or italicizing...meaning
that you can't style your notes with color, etc.
With Breeze 5.x, this gets a bit stickier, and without
getting too far down "into the weeds on this", text formatting in
the notes panel will most likely depend on which version of Breeze
you're using. Generally speaking, however, in order to see any kind
of formatting displayed in the Notes panel of a presentation means
that you have to alter a line of code in the viewer.xml document
that's created once you publish your deck....and here's how:
1. Go ahead and add bold and italics treatment as
necessary...and then publish your deck--for this procedure, the
premise is that you're publishing locally to your computer.
2. Navigate to the Data directory of the published
presentation.
3. Within the Data directory, you need to find and then open
the viewer.xml document. I'd recommend that you right-click it and
use Notepad to open the xml doc.
4. Now, when you're in Notepad, you can use Notepad's Find
and Replace feature to make the next series of steps much easier to
deal with. From the main menu in Notepad, click on Edit, and then
trace down and select "Replace..." or hit Control-H.
5. When the Find & Replace dialog box appears, in the
"Find what" field, type:
isHTML="false"
and in the "Replace with" field type:
isHTML="true"
6. Save and close down the viewer.xml doc
7. Now, if you re-run the course, any instance of formatting
that you created while in PowerPoint *should* appear in the Notes
panel of the Breeze/Presenter presentation.
Again, the ability to format text in the notes region is
still very much limited. And without specfically knowing which
version you're using, the above represents a basic guideline to
having simple formatting show up on a published presentation. IF
you're using an earlier version (ex: Breeze 4.0/5.0), then let me
know, because there are other steps you can take to ensure that
bolded or italicized text appears in the Notes tab.
Hope that helps!

How to export table contents in xml file format through SQL queries

hi,
i need to export the table data in to xml file format. i got it through the GUI what they given.
i'm using Oracle 10g XE.
but i need to send the table name from Java programs. so, how to call the export commands from programming languages through. is there any sql commands to export the table contents in xml format.
and one more problem is i created each transaction in two tables. for example if we have a transaction 'sales' , that will be saved in db as
sales1 table and sales2 table. here i maintained and ID field in sales1 as PK. and id as FK in sales2.
i get the combined data with this query,
select * from sales1 s1, sales2 s2 where s1.id=s2.id order by s1.id;
it given all the records, but i'm getting two ID fields (one from each table). how to avoid this. here i dont know how many fields will be there in each table. that will be known at runtime only.
the static information is sales1 have one ID field with PK and sales2 will have one ID filed with FK.
i need ur valuable suggestions.
regards
pavan.

You can use DBMS_XMLGEN.getXML('your Query') for generating data in tables to XML format and you can use DBMS_XMLGEN.SETROWSETTAG to change the parent element name other wise it will give rowset as well as DBMS_XMLGEN.SETROWTAG for row name.
Check this otherwise XMLELEMENT and XMLFOREST function are also there to convert data in XML format.

ABAP to XML file - Formatting problem and UTF-8 requirement

Missing Format Text, Insert, and Edit Source, etc Options on Some Pages

I’m having trouble understanding why certain pages have more edit options than others. I’m new to Sharepoint Workspace 2010 and I’ve been reading/ researching for answers for 2 days now. I tried to HyperSnap in some pictures however it will not allow me
to until my account is verified and it's not sending a verification email, sorry!
Issue:
On some pages, I have the edit pencil with lots of great edit options such as Format Text, Insert and Edit Source. (This is good!)
On some pages I have no edit pencil, but when I go to Page
à Edit Page à I get few edit options, not including Format Text, Insert or Edit Source. (This is not good)
After reading other somewhat similar posts, I noticed that on the pages where I get lots of edit options, they show SitePages in the URL. Where I get few edit options, SitePages is not in the URL.
Is there a fix so that I can have the expanded edit options in all of my pages? Thank you for your help!

Hi,
In SharePoint we don’t have edit page options [ribbon toolbar page edit formatting options] for all types of page for application page we cannot edit application page like site pages
again the missing edit button might be due to many causes:
Can you verify that it's not a permissions issue? Try navigating to the page in edit mode by appending to the url: your-site/Pages/YourPage.aspx?ControlMode=Edit&DisplayMode=Design
Or you can try this
your-site/Pages/YourPage.aspx? ?ToolPaneView=2
1. You can check that on some pages the ribbon is hidden by default. You need to make it visible by clicking on "Show Ribbon" on the "Site Actions" drop-down menu.
2. You haven't been doing Visual Upgrade (which actually replaces your master page with the v4.master)
3. If you have different master page and may be your master page is not 100% compatibile with SP2010, nor does it use the elements from v4.master (collaboration) or the example nightandday.master
To add the button in your page you could use the <SharePoint:PageStateActionButton id="PageStateActionButton" runat="server" Visible="false" /> (if you've seen already that would generate the button on the left side of
the ribbon)!
Please can you ping the URL of the page and how you crated that page to further assist, we would be happy to help.

Obviously, as seen above, I'm doing something wrong or Live View does not do all the functions that Design View use to do. I realize I can still access Design View in non-Fluid Grid Layout documents and that is my current work-around. I copy from my Word file into Design View available in non-Fluid, then copy that code into my Fluid Grid Layout document, not real efficient use of my time. And, even that work-around may not be available after the next upgrade.

Hans thank you for your reply and attention to this matter. Moreover, with your steeped expertise I do not, in any fashion, intend to be flippant or capricious.
However, I do not believe the reply is on point since I'm not discussing the insertion of an HTML tag/element; but rather, the placing of complex formatted text into my various web pages.
Design View and 2014.1 Live View seem to serve different functions. That is, Design View, for us, serves as a highly sophisticated HTML5 code generator that allows us to properly display complex formatted text that originally is created as a Word docx file. As I noted in my original post, the complex formatted text from the Word file is then pasted into Design View and thus properly renders on the web page. I invite you to try this yourself. Simply copy my properly formatted text in my original post (that can be found at "Using Design View the web page rendered this way:") to a Word file, and it will retain the complex formatting, then copy that Word file text to both Design View and 2014.1 Live View files. Please apprise me of your results.
Discussion has been had in at least two separate threads on the Design View disappearance in Fluid Grid. In https://forums.adobe.com/thread/1597260 staff member Lalita wrote "It would be helpful for us if you list the issues you are seeing with fluid grid live view editing." And in https://forums.adobe.com/message/6807088#6807088 staff member Subhadeep wrote "If you can list down the workflows you are trying while editing in Live View & the issues you are facing in doing so, it will help us understand what is amiss & suggest alternative workflows to do the same." I believe I've pointed out issues when attempting to use Live View for functions or work flow that customarily had been done in Design View.
Being a CC subscriber, if someone can provide me with a workflow using other additional Adobe products to get my complex formatted text from Word ultimately to my Dreamweaver web page, be it an image insert or whatever, I would take the suggestions.
The difference in the coding of my example in my original post is as follows.

It is readily apparent that Design View is a much needed code generator in the Dreamweaver product. Live View serves completely other, and needed, purposes. Therefore, I still, after all the forum discussions, do not understand why Design View has been removed from Fluid Grid.
Again Hans thank you for your reply. But unless I'm missing something, citation to the links you provided does not solve my problem. And that problem is this: If Design View is on its way out and thus will be completely removed from Dreamweaver at some point, then how do I provide my information (i.e. complex executive job descriptions) on my website?
Apparently a vote is taking place https://forums.adobe.com/ideas/3922 on the issue of placing Design View back into Fluid Grid. I do not understand why the need for two rather disjunctive functionalities are at the mercy of the democratic process. These are matters of engineering principles not "town hall gatherings".
