can the adobe FDF toolkit be used to dynamically create a several page report using data from a recordset in ASP? As far as i can see now, it is only useful for filling in form fields from user submitted data.
Another option we are exploring is using the activePDF tools to do this. Has anyone had any experience with these tools? any comments/opinions? Can it do what we asked above?
I'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'm a Flash programmer dabbling in ASP and I have a quick question for one of you pro's .I need to dynamically create and name variables from a returned list:
variable1 = somedata1
variable2 = somedata2
variable3 = somedata3
etc...
In Flash this would be easy:
/////////////////////////////////////////
for(var i=0;i>=50;i++){
this[variable+i] = ("somedata"+i);
}
////////////////////////////////////////
But obviously you crazy kids have your own syntax.

View Replies View RelatedI have found that with Adobe LifeCycle Design 7.x, you can save a dynamic PDF that will send xml to the browser when a button is clicked. I'm able to pull the data I need from the xml I'm sent, but I'm not sure how ( after saving this xml to the database ) I can recreate the PDF in a later request.Is there a transform that someone can point me to that will transform this XML to a PDF?

View Replies View RelatedI'm having some problems with the Reponse.BinaryWrite, IE 6.0 and Adobe Reader 6.0. When I try to write a pdf-file to an IE browser with a Adobe Reader 6.0 installed then it just displays a blank page and the earth on the top rigth corner keeps turning like it haven't read the pdf-file (for 10+ minutes on a lan).
If I change the settings on the Adobe Reader 6.0 to not open in a browser, then it works fine. If I use Mozilla 1.4 then it opens fine as well.It works fine as well with Adobe Reader 5.1. The code looks like this:
[Some code that places the pdf-file in a byte array called vntStream]
Response.Clear
Response.ContentType = "Application/pdf"
Response.BinaryWrite = vntStream
Response.end
I have tried to place a Response.Flush after the BinaryWrite, but it just makes the Adobe plug-in say something like "document corupted".
I have a form submit that must report back to the same page an error if a pair of radio buttons inside the form block are not checked. But data from the buttons must still be sent to another page.
I tried having the form send data back to the same page, then putting the data in session variables and redirecting to the page they have to go to. But apparently the session variables are having unpredictable effects on the very complex page I'm sending the data too.
I'm thinking about using Onsubmit = somefunction inside of the <form > . I've tried javascript but I haven't found the right code yet, and also I'd rather avoid the popup alert box, it is inconsistent with the rest of the website. Perhaps an ASP subprocedure could do the trick?
I'm trying to write an asp page line by line, as one would create a
text file, only my file will end in .asp.
One line simply writes a close ASP code tag, or
FILECONTENTS=FILECONTENTS & "%>"
When this line processed, an error occurs saying that the string was
never terminated because the asp page attempting to write this line of
code to a NEW asp page reads that close ASP tag (%>), as an actual
close asp tag for itself, instead of a STRING value.
How do I write this %> symbol to a new asp file, while still
maintaining its purpose to close a group of asp code in the newly
created page?
How can I instantiate an Adobe Distiller object from ASP ? Thank you.
View Replies View RelatedI'm looking for a tool that would allow me to create a web page with the
spreadsheet like functionality. Basically, I want to be able to type in a
number in the cell and have all totals being calculated automatically
without having a page refreshed (or a trip to the server).
That would be possible to do with MS Excel web plug-in but I don't want to use plug-ins. I want users to just access the page and don't worry if they have MS Excel or
MS plug-ins installed.
Is there a solution that would accomplish that? I can be written in any
language like ASP, JSP, DHTML, PYTHON or PHP or a third party tool. I really
don't care. I just wont to create a page with the spreadsheet like
functionality.
