A single PDF document two outputs with slightly different content?

I have a document unique indd. This document, I produce two PDF files: one for the use of screen with active links, etc. and one for professional printing (with purge, so it can be cut exactly).

The document is a book that has an official ISBN number. But now the following happens. The version of the screen should have a different ISBN number than the printed version. So, in a few places, I need another string of text and in one place a different image (bar code) deoending on if I create interactive PDF or Print PDF output.

This means maintaining two copies (a bore when changing the things), or change whenever I want to do a different output. Is there a way I can automate this? Say that I can say 'do screen version' and the ISBNs and bar code image is replaced and screen PDF product and "print" for the print version?

Or am I obligated now turn my beautiful indd document in two book projects with all the trouble with index, paging, etc. that implies? I'd rather have a few replace automated some elements of text and an image that transforming the indd to a book, because I'm rather scared of all the problems of references and others that an extra layer of complexity of the document will bring me.

If you include the bar code as object online ain that you can probably use conditional text to it as well - a condition to control both the bar code and text.

  • How to join two fields with slightly different data

    I have two columns, I need joined, both keep the columns of numeric data, but are of type varchar2 (6). The problem is that one of the columns keeps leading zeros to ensure that all 6 characters are used, but not the other. And columns preserve leading zeros may vary how many zeros are in the number-based computing.

    For example, the column with zeros can contain the number 4200, which would mean that he would remain with 2 zeros as 004200. Or it could contain 320, which means that he would remain with 3 zeros as 000320.

    The other column that does not have leading zeros not only keeps the number, so, in the example above, it would keep 4200 and 320 respectively.

    Can someone help on how to join these columns so that they match? I guess I have to delete the zeros in one or add zeros in the other? I tried to use the trunc with zeros on the ground, but it did not work...

    The following sql code:

    M06.mbr06_prv_id has no zeros, prv647.provider_id zeros. See bold below...

    SELECT
    M06.mbr06_prv_id,
    prv647.Site_ID
    Of
    Odw.mbr06_mbr_elig m06
    JOIN THE
    Odw.prv647_prov_exp prv647
    WE
    M06.mbr06_prv_id = prv647.provider_id
    WHERE
    M06.mbr06_subs_id = "999999999 '

    BTW, I have no control on how this data is represented in a table... !

    Yes, this is how I see.
    LTRIM removes given characters from the beginning of a string. LPAD adds characters at the beginning of a string. I would use LTRIM in this case, because if you use LTRIM, you probably need to handle a single column. If you use LPAD, you have to play with the two columns, as one of them still has the extra 0, and it sometimes needs them.

    I tried to use the trunc with zeros on the ground, but it did not work...

    TRUNC is working on the kinds or DATEs; you have VARCHAR2s. You can convert them to numbers, but then you risk of errors to cause bad data (and it linked to the wrong data).

    WHERE
    M06.mbr06_subs_id = "999999999 '

    If you are certain that m06.mbr06_prv_id never has extra characters, whereas the join condition can be

    ON   m06.mbr06_prv_id   = LTRIM ( prv647.provider_id
                                      , '0'
                           )
    

    If this isn't the case, CUT then the two columns.

    BTW, I have no control on how this data is represented in a table... !

    Report a bad design is for people who don't have not this control. Numbers are the number of columns, not VARCHAR2. If the ID really needs to be strings, they should be validated and standardized once, when they are placed in the table, no more, and more, in all queries that use these columns.

    I hope that answers your question.
    If not, post a small example of data (CREATE TABLE and only relevant columns, INSERT statements) for all tables and also post the results desired from these data.
    Explain, using specific examples, how you get these results from these data.
    Always tell what version of Oracle you are using.

  • HP Officejet 7610: Scan of the computer cannot be activated or scan and combine them into a single pdf document.

    I've recently updated to macOS Sierra 10.12 and scanning to HP computer software cannot be located when I open the HP utility.

    I can't find a further recommended HP software for my device other than El captain in operating system online.

    If I try to scan through preferences systems for printers and Scanners I can open the scanner, but I can't create a PDF combining into one document - it cancels the procedure after about 2 pages!

    The scan HP Destinations 'PDF for Adobe Reader' is red 'could not locate the target application that might have removed or uninstalled. File format = "PDF".

    How can I get that back?

    Hi @JOGL,

    Thank you for joining the HP Forums!

    I understand that computer analysis can not be activated as well as the scan and combine them into a single pdf document. With your printer HP Officejet 7610. I am pleased to see that for you!

    At this time for this model. There is no software and drivers for Mac OS X 10.12 again, given that the operating system has just been launched, it could take some time. For the time being, you can try to use HP Easy Scan to see if that can meet your scanning preferences. In otherwise, all we can do is wait for the software and drivers to be released.

  • 5514 photosmart e-all-in-one: scan multiple pages into a single PDF document?

    How can I scan multiple pages into a single multi-page PDF file?
    I saw posted similar questions, but I have not found all the right answers. The Council alone that I saw was to scan each page in a separate PDF document, then merge them into a single PDF using third party software.
    Of course, I don't want to do.
    I can't believe that there's really no way to do it using the existing HP printing/scanning utilities provided with the hardware.
    My printer/scanner is the "HP Photosmart 5514 e-All-in-One Printer - B111h", and I am running Vista (64 bit) on a HP Pavilion laptop.

    Hello

    The HP scanning software (start > programs > HP > Photosmart HP 5510 series > HP Scan) select PDF and make sure that the resolution is 300 dpi or less.

    Make sure the option Show Scan preview is checked, and click Scan.

    Once the first page of scanning is finished, place the next page on the window and click on the button "+" under the scan preview...

    Once you are done click Save.

  • HP 4520 Envy: how to save a MultiPage as a single PDF document

    If I put a 600 dpi scanning resolution I have to save each scanned page as a single pdf file. To save a document pages more as a single pdf file, I have to downgrade the resolution to 300 dpi scan.  BUT 300 dpi returns an image of poor quality, on the edge of readability.

    Is there a way to scan multiple pages with a resolution of 600 dpi and a record as a single pdf file?

    Thanks for the help

    Hello

    Thanks for your comments.

    We now see the issue.  Unfortunately, you cannot "add pages" If the resolution is greater than 300 dpi.

    The following post explains why:

    "Add pages to Scan" for the resolution up to 300 DPI only

  • Why should Windows 8.1 I 2 different profiles with the same default folders, but each with completely different content?

    I want to save my e-mail and archives. I intend to put them in my folder "Documents" for backup of 'Cloud' and also in an external hard drive that I have always used in the past and, as a child of 76 with a new computer, 8.1 instead of XP and TB instead of Outlook Express, that I feel more confident on my external hard drive! I have 31 TB and Windows 8.1. I put my computer to show the "hidden files and folders". In user/AppData/Local name there is a record of TB with 'Profiles' and there my XXXX.default folder - but it has only a limited number of files and folders (Cache/cache2...). In user/AppData/Roaming name, there is also a TB with 'Profiles' folder and there my XXXX.default folder- but it contains a completely different and much larger files and Folders collection (4 different folders and multiple files MAB and SQLITE and others). Why have I not two files with different content identical default? Do I have to register each one? Can someone please explain/help, preferably in words this 76 year-old could understand.

    Windows 8 user accounts can be local or remote. It assumes that everyone has a roaming profile. Thunderbird uses mobile records as you can see, but there is only the rump in local that I don't really understand the existence of.

    Thunderbird does not use it, I guess that windows creates.

    Hi toddk23479425,

    You can combine up to 12 files at a time in PDF format. If you need to combine several files, combine them in lots of 12 or less to PDF and then combine these PDFs.

    Other posters have a difficult time distinguishing tabs and Windows, it seems. With a lot of posters here the two terms are used incorrectly and indifferently, as is the desktop and the window of Firefox, but my understanding is that a lot of this "bad language" is taught in schools.
