how to click ok to the message popping up regarding images while extracting the text using SDK?

Hi,

 

I'm using Adobe SDK for extracting the text from PDF files. I'm getting an pop-up message regarding the images in the file, which I couldn't able to access the pop-up message and click ok to it by programmatically. Since this is a background process, it need to do this programmatically. Can somebody help me in this?

 

Message is like this....

 

   "Acrobat was able to make this document accessible but found the following oddities:

     Some difficult pages were encountered requiring all graphics on those pages to be labeled as figures [1, 3, 15, 25, 101, ....]

 

Only "OK" button is there in that message and I need to click on that programmatically, which I'm not able to do it.

Retrieving formatting for a text field

I'm populating pdf forms using C# and the Javascript for Acrobat API.  There are some text fields that are formatted as number fields and are erroring because I'm trying to set the value to something that's not allowed (like "$25,000.00").  I know that through the javascript api that I can SET the format of a text field through "setAction" but, for the life of me, I can't find how to retrieve the formatting once it's been set.  Any help would be greatly appreciated.

 

Thanks,

Store custom color to windows registry - howto?

$

Dear All,

 

I want to change the forms highlight color by registry and need some help here.

 

As I have seen in HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Adobe\Acrobat Reader\11.0\FormsPrefs\cRuntimeBGIdleColor the registry value is REG_BINARY and the content stored in xData. This differs to all other color settings like for annotions. Can someone help me how to store a RGB color value into this field? Which Encoding do I have to use?

 

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Adobe\Acrobat Reader\11.0\FormsPrefs\cRuntimeBGIdleColor]
"xData"=hex:01,00,82,08,00,40,00,00,aa,aa,00,00,55,55,00,00,00,00,00,0 0

 

PS: I know that it is possible to store this value with javascript, but I don't want to. The preferred language is VB.NET for doing this.

Using setViewRect to locate a particular are in a PDF

Hello,

 

We have a Delphi application in which we are using a TAcroPDF component.

 

With Acrobat 9 Pro, when we need to locate a particular area in a PDF we use the function setViewRect(left, top, width, height) . Since we updated to Acrobat Reader X, the setViewRect function does not work properly. The vertical scrollbar does not move for whatever the values given as parameters in the setViewRect function.

 

Also, we notice that if we change regional settings to EN, we also have a different behaviour.

 

Could you please help us to be able to locate a particular area in a given PDF ?

 

Thanks

Automatically Tagged the PDF files Created from Templates

$

I have some PDF templates which have texts, fields, table, or lines in it. They are made accessible by tagging manually and creating special reading order when press tab through the pages.

 

After run a program which uses Adobe FdfApp and FdfDoc object to add data in the fields of the templates and save as an fdf file, then use CAcroAVDoc / CAcroPDDoc object convert fdf file to a PDF file. This PDF file will keep special reading order when press tab through the pages, but no Tag. (Tagged PDF: is No).

 

Is there a way can keep the tag of PDF templates, after run FdfApp? If not, how automatically to create the PDF file tag or import tag from its template?

The file "PreflightLib.dll" is missing or corrupt

Hello,

 

We are using autobatch to compress pdf's in a folder that we produce daily.  We are getting this Preflightlib.dll is missing or corrupt message quite often.  When you hit OK the dialog box goes away and the script continues on most of the time.

 

We thought it might be machine specific so we installed on another machine and are having the same issue.34Capture.JPG

This processing is done at 3 and 4am so having it batched is a must for us.  Any ideas?  Thanks!


HOW TO SAVE FROM AxAcroPDF

Hello,

 

  

i've a problem with saving a pdf. I explain better my scenario :

 

I need to do a webscrapping to a website that allow users to view a certain pdf via a search form.

 

I'm at the point to save the file, but when I click on the search button the website,the pdf is created at runtime and it's sended to the client opening a new web browser's window with an embed control, that is AxAcroPDF.

How can I save from this embed control ?

 

looking to the documentation I understand that I can show a file, i can interact with the pages' navigation, also with the print of the file , but I can't copy or save it to the disk.

  

 

p.s.

When the file is sent to the client the only one way to get it another time is to re-do the search, cause the server doesn't save it to disk and it doesn't open in a new window via the phisical path.

My code is written in VB.NET

  

 

thanks in advance

Hi,

     We have a requirement of compressing pdfs using Acrobat. We used to do it manually with an action by invoking "Optimize Scanned PDF". However since the amount of pdf to be compressed has grown exponentially we are planning to automate this task. Is there any way of achieving this like from IAC or through any programming language without human intervention.Or do I need any other software/plugin to achieve this task

 

Thanks

What is the best process for creating, opening, editing, etc PDFs from within Visual Studio 2008?

$

I am the project manager on a web-based application that will need to:

  1. Create, open, edit, save, etc PDFs from within a Visual Studio 2008 web application (Visual Basic).
  2. Populate PDFs from SQL server 2010 database.
  3. Allow users to use PDF editing tools from within the website.

 

 

BTW, the application is being written in Visual Basic.

 

Will the SDK allow us to do this? What licenses do we need to purchase?

 

Are there 3rd party plugins that make doing these things much faster and simpler?

 

Any input is GREATLY appreciated!!!

 

Sincerely,

 

Mike

How to create a new type of annotation?

$

0

Hi,

 

I have been trying to create a custom annotation, but couldn't get any hints. I found this is the SDK that to create a new annotation type, we should write few callbacks and specify them in AVAnnotHandler structure and register them with AVAppRegisterAnnotHandler. I didn't get any elaboration on how to create and register a new type of handler.

 

Please guide or provide some sample on this. I am on an urgent deadline. Quick help will be appreciated.

 

Thanks!
