I have a project coming up soon where pdf files are stored in our oracle database. They want me to pull the pdf form out of the database and present it to the user on the screen. I've done a little searching on google, but haven't been able to find anything that helps. Can someone tell me if this is possible and if so, give a little example?
View RepliesI am looking at expanding some search engine code of mine to include PDFs. Therefore I need some mechanism to extract the text from a PDF file which I can break down into individual words so I can index them.
Does anyone have any code or examples that will allow me to pull out the
text of a PDF file in ASP?
This is something I must have spent hours searching for to no avail ;( .. Is there a way via classic ASP to issue a command to have a PDF file print? The code has the filename and path and all... All I need is a way to issue it to print! Is this at all possible?
View Replies View RelatedI'm using the library fpdf.asp from www.aspxnet.it and when I generate the pdf succesfully, this pdf rest in caché memory, and when I try with other user to generated another pdf, Internet Explorer shows me the old pdf.My question is, How can the delete the caché merory?I try with the HTML meta tags, but if I do this, de IE only write the pdf tags not de pdf page because it have a bug with acrobat.
I try with
Response.CacheControl="no-cache";
Response.AddHeader "Pragma", "no-cache";
Response.Expires=-1;
but it' s say that can't access to cache memory and it can' t generated the pdf.
Does anyone know if there are any IIS components out there that run on
IIS 5.0 that will convert LaTeX to PDF? I have written a script in ASP
that produces the LaTeX document, but am unsure of how to go about
converting it to PDF and delivering it to the client.
If you don't know of one, do you have any idea of how I might implement
such a transform? I would have to use a WshShell to run pdflatex on
the source twice before I could deliver the PDF to the user. However,
pdflatex outputs a PDF, so I would have to redirect the client to the
PDF, and then somehow come along later and clean it up. I'm not sure
if this would be the optimal process to take.
Does anyone know of a web-based tool that will allow users to print certain pages in PDF?
View Replies View RelatedI've successfully managed to install the FDF-toolkit to my computer and I've also managed to create a PDF-file from a asp-page. But all of this have been for testing, now I want to implement this pdf-creating-service to a system for inquirys.
The salesman at the office uses a webpage to build their inquires and at the end I want to have a nice looking pdf for them to print. Is there anyone that knows how to actually create real dynamic pdf:s where the amount of pages and data varies a lot? If not, does anyone have an idea how to get good printouts from a webbrowser, where the text or tables dont get cut in the middle by the printer.
I need to take a bunch of PDFs that I have made using Appligent's FDFMerge and append them together. I know I could use Appligent's AppendPDF. But I was wondering if there were any free toolkits that I could use with a bit more work out there?
I cannot tell what on the Adobe site would be a candidate for me to even look at. The Acrobat SDK seems to be for Acrobat Reader plugins. Not what I am going for. The PDF library seems a candidate, but what *is* it? A C library? I cannot use a C library unless it has a COM wrapper.
I have a problem with a small asp-solution that searches for PDF-documents with
indexing service.
For some files in the search result I get gibberish returned, such as ....
I fire the following code on Index Server (different obj) and it returns a PDFs no problem, but when I change the object to use the MSSearch for Site Server I don't get any PDFs. Anything in the code that would cause this? I can see the PDFs getting crawled in Site Server, but when I try and search I don't get any pdfs .....

I've been surfing the web and this forum for methods to upload images through a form in a browser. I've come up with a few results, e.g. Dundas free upload component.
Besides that I've got the free product from ServerObjects.com to check the ImageSize and found some other non-component method to check the Image dimensions at: LearnASP.com.
Users should be enabled to upload a thumb for their profile. Since I can't expect each user to be a computer literate they might upload an image which is a bit too big. Are their free methods with ASP to reduce those images in size? I'm simply using ASP here with IIS. For now I can only give them an error stating that their image is too big.
A second matter might be a photogallery where there's bigger images and thumbnails. Right now I'm using Irfanview/Ifranview to quickly make thumbs for each regular image. Like with the example above it would be ideal if this can be automized as well, since users should be enabled to put up some small photogallery as well.
I know there's some fancy expensive methods to achieve this, but usually they offer loads more and all I need is something to crop or resize (resizing is best).
I'm looking for a code or a component that will enable me to generate images on the fly, through my ASP code.
For example:
Retrieve some textual data from a database and make an image out of it.
OR
Combine text and an existing image into one new image.
OR
Read an HTML file that contains text and image and generate an image from it.
I've found programs that do it (like ABC Amber Text2Image Converter), but I fail to make it work through a code and not through a software console.
I have been asked to produce reports which will be triggered and generated automatically via scheduled tasks against data in SQL SERVER.
The reports will be generated as CSV's to provide compatibility with Excel.
The reports will then e-mailed as attatchments to an agreed list of recipients.
This all has to be done with the use of ASP and SQL Server.
Can anyone advise on how the prolem should be approached?

particular manufacturer has 5000 more records than the next highest. When I

Is there a cache or setting I need to increase to get this much data?

Basically I have a site where the administrator adds new students to a college system. This code just adds a new student to the database. When they are added a username is generated by taking the first letter of the forename and the first from the surname and joining them to the date.
(ie, James Brown would generate JB2005) Obviously some people will have the same initials so i'm trying to get all the records from the student table in my database that has the first two letters as the student I'm trying to add and adding the value of the count of that recordset before the date of the new students initials. (ie, if Jane Bennett was added the username would be JB12005 because there is already a user with the initials JB in the database)
At the moment if i add a new member to the database, the fields are populated but the count of the recordset is not added so I end up with duplicate usernames. I'm not sure if the recordset is even being filled or whether the recordcount is not working. Code:

I am working on a system which requires data to be entered for candidates. It stores the whole data about the candidates in database(MS Accesss). The system will be used on client-side.Now what Iam required to do is generate reports as required by the user.but i have heard about reporting tools which can be used with ASP to generate reports.
The reports can be in Excel format or word format.Please suggest me which one should i use and how to use it?I am very naive to anything like this. Where can i find more info about it?
I have a question about generating reportDates upon import succeed of text files to Access. In the tables that needs to be imported daily has a field name called reportDate.
I have done in such a way that an ASP page will call the Import Macro from Access & execute it. There is no data for reportDate in the text files because I want it to be updated by the codes itself(auto-generate).
I adventured into Access, double-clicked on one of the tables & then View it in Design View. I entered Now()-1 in the Default Value caption. And then, I try my Import code & went back to check on my tables to see if data has been imported into or not. I also check my reportDate & realized that Access enters the date as 1 day before.
When the user creates a new page, rather than go through every other page in the site and add a new link to the left hand navigation I want to use an include file and search the folder for all .asp and .htm files and display them in the navi as a link. If that makes sense?
I've been playing around with FileSystemObject, but am struggling to get the desired results. Rather than display the full name of the file in the navi, I want to remove the file extension and the path, and maybe convert the leading letter to a capital so it looks like a regular nav.

I have a question on search engines.
My ASP page can currently just display selected table & selected field names prior to the selection of tables.
My ASP page has:
- 2 drop down list
- 2 submit button
Currently, both of my drop down lists can work.
1st DDL: Displays the table names
2nd DDL: Displays the respective field names prior to the selection of table from 1st DDL.
The scenario is like this; When User selects the tablename & clicks 1st submit button, the 2nd DDL will generate the field names. User selects the field name he/she wants to view from 2nd DDL & clicks the 2nd submit button.
I know its quite lame to do it this way but I'm still a novice in ASP. So hoping to get ideas from you people on how can I re-decorate my search engine into a useful tool for the User in the future.

How do you go about generating a number based on the current date and time? I want to generate a number to be used as a confirmation number to an email. My site does
not connect to a database or anything just pure asp with an email form.
I would like to do is to generate statistics from my access db.
Within the db there are fields for each of the 11 plaers in the team each week, i.e. p1, p2, p3 ...... in each one will be a name, i.e Bill Bloggs but the name could appear in any one of the 11 fields.
What I would like to do is count the number of occurances of bill bloggs in the 11 fields and return it on my site as a table, i.e.;
name - times played
bill bloggs - 6
On our website, a user can order products from us. When they "submit" the
order, the website designer has written some ASP code to auto send an email
to our Exchagne 2000 server. Due to the contents of the email, we need to
secure it... How can we send a "secured" email from ASp script or would
this not be a function of ASp at all but the server the email is being sent
from? There must be something in the ASP code to indicate the email needs to
be secured?
