Acrobat Customization Wizard DC - Default viewer for PDF files - What does this mean? --> On Windows 10 this option will only set default PDF viewer for browsing and file preview

When using the Acrobat Customization Wizard DC to build the MST for both Reader and Acrobat Pro, what does this mean under Default viewer for PDF Files --> "On Windows 10 this option will only set default PDF viewer for browsing and file preview." I cannot find anything online to explain this not even in Adobe Support. I chose the SDK forum since there isn't a selection for the Customization Wizard. I would hope you all know the Customization Wizard for working on Reader and Pro. Thank you.

Hi all of you. I have downloaded the sample project from the server, and I have compiled with VS2008. I have compiled ActiveView sample project. No errors ... but when I run this app, I got this error:

 

Failed to create object :<

 

at CMainFrame::CMainFrame(),

 

MainAcroApp = new CAcroApp;

COleException e;

if (! MainAcroApp->CreateDispatch("AcroExch.App",&e))

  AfxMessageBox("Failed to create object :<");

 

and MainAcroApp has the following m_lpDispatch value: 0x000000

 

of course, something went wrong ... but what ? Is there any condition to run these sample projects ? Could you assist me in order to solve this ?

 

Thank you.

dynamically change url of submit button in pdf

Hi

I am using an excel table to fill fields in a pdf after mapping the xml structure of pdf in Excel.

This is done via a vba code in excel. In synopsis, excel created a map/dictionary of data, calls in acrobat, opens the form, loads the map.

In this loading, the url on the submit button is not getting updated.

Any idea on what vba code will ensure that the url of a button on the pdf will also get updated by the values in the excel.

Ironically enough the button is available in the xml structure.

 

Any help will be appreciated.

Kind regards

Amit

Acrobat 11 can't remove text box

I inserted the drawing markups text box in my PDF, and I cannot delete it. I have tried rebooting my computer closing and opening the program reopening the file, I select the text box and choose delete, it disappears and the soon as I move my cursor back up where it was it pops back up. I have tried everything I can think of, how do you get rid of a text box that comes back, right after you delete it?

Combine Document Preserving Document Names

$

0

I am looking to combine multiple PDFs using the "Interapplication Communication API Reference"

The below snippet will combine the documents and preserve the layers it won't give the same results as creating a binder using the UI combine documents button

The difference being 1) The combine button creates layers for each PDF document and with the document layers created as sub layers whereas the snippet just created the doc layers without the parent layers as per document name. 2) The button automatically creates bookmarks for each document, the snippet doesn't.

 

Any ideas how to at least get point 1 working. It's for windows and either powershell or vbs would be easiest.acrobat_layers.png

Edit: I see the bottom red bottom red arrow is in the wrong place so please use your imagination to put it in the correct place :-)

Hi,

I used the library provided by datalogic(acrobat's) in my Java Program to extract the content from a pdf file, but after extraction, the content has symbols and non understandable fonts. The same program works fine when I extract the content of another pdf file.

 

 

Can you please let me know how to read the exact content from the pdf file avoiding the symbols and various non understandable fonts.

 

 

Thanks,

Mahesh

Acrobat not releasing files, AV_Layer, AVDocDoSave(), AVDocClose()

$
0
0

I'm getting some undesired behavior. If I open an AV document from a file, and then close it, Acrobat will release the file back to the system and it works as intended. If I add a AVDocDoSave() call on the avDoc, it will save the file correctly, and it will no longer be an active document within acrobat, but Acrobat does not release the file to the system.

 

Here's a sample of how I'm opening a document (just using a simple hardcoded example):

     const char* myPath = "C:\\a.pdf";
     ASAtom pathType = ASAtomFromString("Cstring");

     //Create an ASPathName object
     ASFileSys fileSys = ASGetDefaultFileSysForPath(pathType, myPath);
     ASPathName pathName = ASFileSysCreatePathName(fileSys, pathType, myPath, NULL);
     //Open the PDF file
     AVDoc myDoc = AVDocOpenFromFile(pathName, fileSys, NULL);

 

And then I close it like so:

     AVDocDoSave(myDoc);
     AVDocClose(myDoc, false);
     ASFileSysReleasePath(fileSys, pathName);

 

After this plugin runs (and the acrobat program is still running, sitting there idle), Acrobat is not letting go of the file, it's still open. I'm  using the openfiles /query command from the windows command prompt to verify,  although you can also experience this by trying to change the filename  while Acrobat is still open. Once I exit Acrobat, the file is released.

 


Am I using the AVDocDoSave call wrong or do you have any info on this? Should I be saving it a different way?

 

Thanks.

Perform Action on PDDoc

$

Hi all,

 

comming from thread Re: Acrobat not releasing files, AV_Layer, AVDocDoSave(), AVDocClose()  I'd like to clarify how I can work on the PDDoc API.

My aim is to perform an OCR on a given document. To do so I've tried for example:

 

ASAtom pathType = ASAtomFromString(   "Cstring");
ASFileSys fileSys = ASGetDefaultFileSysForPath(pathType,   "C:/_TRANSFER/a4.pdf");
ASPathName pathLaunchFile = ASFileSysCreatePathName(fileSys, pathType,   "C:/_TRANSFER/a4.pdf", NULL);
// AVDoc avDoc = AVDocOpenFromFile(pathLaunchFile, fileSys, NULL);
// PDDoc pdDoc = AVDocGetPDDoc(avDoc);


PDDoc pdDoc = PDDocOpen(pathLaunchFile, fileSys, false, false);

PDAction myAct1 = PDActionNew(pdDoc, ASAtomFromString("PaperCapture"));
CosObj  onObj = PDActionGetCosObj(myAct1);
CosDoc cosDoc = CosObjGetDoc(onObj);
PDDoc pdDocNew = PDDocFromCosDoc(cosDoc);

PDSaveFlags pdsaveflags = PDSaveFlags();
ASProgressMonitor asProgressMonitor = ASProgressMonitor();
PDDocSave(pdDocNew, pdsaveflags, pathLaunchFile, fileSys, asProgressMonitor, false);
PDDocClose(pdDoc);
PDDocRelease(pdDoc);

 

But this seems to be not working at all since the file is obviously updated (new timestamp) - even with a larger filesize, but not OCR is performed (tested by search for Words, which are available after a manual OCR).

 

Any suggestions? =)

Cheers,

Dear all

I am adding annotation on the document in VBA it works but I cannot change the font size or bold it.

 

 

VBA

     

 

       Set annot = JSO.AddAnnot

             Set props = annot.getProps

             props.Type = "FreeText" this works

 

              props!textFont = "Times-Bold"  this does changes it to pop up????

              props.textFont = "Times-Bold"  this fails

 

tried many variations of this

 

 

 

 

See below this works but can not change text size or weight!!!!!

       Set JSO = objCAcroPDDocSource.GetJSObject

        Set page = objCAcroPDDocSource.AcquirePage(0)

         'Set pageRect2 = page.Dr

        Set pageRect = page.GetSize

       

            '******

            'Add more text

             popupRect2(0) = 15

             popupRect2(1) = pageRect.y - 5

             popupRect2(2) = 600

             popupRect2(3) = pageRect.y - 30

           

             Set annot = JSO.AddAnnot

             Set props = annot.getProps

             props.Type = "FreeText"

 

             props.strokeColor = JSO.Color.Black

        '  props!FontStyle = "bold"  this changes comment to pop up

            props.borderEffectStyle = "NONE"

 

            props.page = 0

            props.rect = popupRect2

 

 

            props.contents = "    " & strResourceName & "      " & Completion & "

Redaction using the default values from the properties dialog?

$

I am trying to create a plugin that redacts words in the same fashion as the ones you are creating manually. But I am having a hard time figuring out how this can be done. I have played around with PDRedactParams and PDApplyRedactionParams but with no luck. It always create the redaction with my "custom" values for color etc.

 

So what I am basically asking is how to programatically create redaction annotations with the same parameters as used in "Properties" for redaction annotations  in Acrobat DC?
