Exporter .xml workflow - advice needed

• InDesign, export XML and the Task FORCE

  As a producer of a weekly, I need advice as to generate xml from Indesign CC (Mac) data standards NITF, at the choice of my digital Distributor. This includes dividing an article - that can be formatted in single text - in two equal elements: one for the title, signature, etc. and one for the body of the text. Is it possible to do without altering the original route, intended for printing? I would rather not have to break an image into two just for this purpose - for each article in the newspaper. In short: an image, an ACE, maybe two items, the head and the body? There is no shortage of advice around xml, nor on the NITF standard for dress news, but I have yet to find the one dealing with both. Thanks in advance.

  If I understand correctly, you just need to label the elements properly. To use a simple example, if I have a single image of text that contains a header and body text, I would create two tags, one for the title and one for the body. Then, I select the heading and apply the tag title and made similarly to the body. When you export to xml format, you will have two items with the title tag and the other with the body tag.

  I am ignorant as to the requirements of the Task FORCE, and so you need anew XSLT to perform on the exported XML file that would comply with the standard. I do not know because I am not aware of it. This part, if necessary I would do in an xml editor or a good text editor who may be able to it's needs.

• XML workflow - adjust the width of text for images frame

  Kings of expensive java script,

  I was checking writing scripts for based on the xml workflow. Here, I did face the problem, the images do not set in the width of the text (screenshot attached for your reference) frame.

  
  

  @ I needed: all images automatically fit to the width of the text frame and the resizing of the images also.

  Width of the text frame: pt 325,984

  Text frame hight: pt 535,748

  This fair to the script?

  

  Thanks in advance

  HTH,

  function main(){
    var doc = app.properties.activeDocument,
    rects, rect, n =0, columnWidth, ratio, rectBounds;
  
    if(!doc) return;
  
    rects = doc.stories.everyItem().rectangles.everyItem().getElements();
  
    n = rects.length;

• Import & Export XML

  Just need to clarity and guidance.

  I have a form created in LC Designer ES2 that "ideally" needs to export its data to an XML file to be saved. I did it in the 'form' opening in Acrobat Pro, however, it would be great if the data can be exported using player - with a script of a button in the form

  I'm confused if this is possible. In my view, that it can be. So, if this is the case, I will need a few details on how to do it. I tried a number of things without success.

  I need:

  • sample script for the button?
    
  • settings in the properties of form LC?
  • understanding of the PDF "certified", if this is necessary and how to install - does the same thing to extend the functionality of player?
  • Can it be tested in LC Designer, or player features must be extended and tested outside the LC Designer?

  Secondly, can the XML be imported into a form to pre-fill some fields (again, using the reader)? The reason is that there will be no doubt (fields added, etc.) changes to the form, and it would be nice to be able to use the existing data for the "legacy" fields, so users need only update the fields renaining.

  With respect to licensing, there are less than 500 of them, so I'd like to avoid making a huge investment in LiveCycle Enterprise software, if this is not necessary. It would be much more that I need at the moment and I'm not bold enough to learn how to use it.

  If it is not possible to export directly to the client computer, is there a different way for the reader to make (for example using a server)?

  Thank you

  Hello

  The only way to import and export XML in Reader data is if the form is Reader enabled using LC Reader Extensions ES2 beforehand.

  Reader allowing the form with Acrobat will not work.

• Export XML with XSLT

  Dear Scripting Guys,

  With this little script, you can export XML.

• The photos must make before export? Need workflow advice.

  I'm trying to find out if there is a way I can speed up my work flow.

  1. pull a timelapse sequence (say 500 images)

  2 imports .dng 1:1 with preview & smart preview

  3. make changes to the Framework #1

  4 copy the settings on the #1 chassis

  5 paste the settings for all frames

  Now here's the tricky part. I'll wait for the progress bar to declare what it got to stick all the settings for the remaining images BUT the gallery previews still look like they did import. LR5.5 begins dutifully make the changes one by one.

  If I have 50 visible frames then 50 thumbnails will be updated. If I order + A (select all) and export all 500 executives at this point so I'll always have some executives go out completely unprocessed - just as they were to import.

  The only way that I understood how to avoid this is to scroll down in the gallery for a new series of 50, wait for them all get new thumbnails rendered, scroll down to the next set of 50 and so on. Once I have confirmed that all the miniatures have made so I can export with 100% success.

  This is expected behavior? What can I do to speed up this painful workflow?

  I work on a new Mac Pro 6.1 (cylinder) with 6-cores and 32 GB of RAM. These files are stored on the 2 stroke, while the library and previews are stored on the very fast built in flash memory.

  I'm trying to find out if there is a way I can speed up my work flow.

  1. pull a timelapse sequence (say 500 images)

  2 imports .dng 1:1 with preview & smart preview

  3. make changes to the Framework #1

  4 copy the settings on the #1 chassis

  5 paste the settings for all frames

  (2) why do 1:1 importing previews? They are used only when you zoom in to 1:1 in the library. If you do not create them import LR will make one for this specific shot, if you zoom in there in the library loupe view. There will be a few seconds delay so that the preview is being created (as if it was created to import, there is almost no delay) but on the other hand you are not logging to your system with hundreds of great previews that you don't need. Same question about intelligent previews. Why? They are used to replace the original plans only when the originals are not available, for example because you are away from home and the storage drive. Do you really need them?

  (3-5) select all images (Ctrl + A). Use the switch on the sync button to make it Auto Sync. Any changes you make to the #1 framework will be immediately to all managers.

• Advice needed - videos - of sports matches how to combine projects?

  I am trying to create a video highlight of my daughter's Soccer.  The goal is to be able to show his talents in a video and I hope engage college coaches.  I recorded the video of several games that are each about 80 minutes.  I'm guessing that I average about 2 minutes of electronic images of each game.  Once the video is finished, it will be posted on you tube and the link will be sent to college coaches appropriate.

  I currently work with each game separately as an individual project.  Once I have all the published games, I would like to combine all these individual game projects in a large project.  Once combined, I want then cut out much of the game clips and just keep the really good things for the final product.

  My big question is in what concerns together them each little project for the final project.  Can I 'release' of each project and then import the product "published" in first Prev 11 elements?  Is there an easy way?

  Any advice on how to do it easily would be much appreciated.

  (I use Prime Minister 11 elements (trial version) and standard video files in AVCHD format taken with a video camera.)  If I can get this figured out I will definitely buy the software.)

  The smarter way to work would be to put the workspace toolbar in each project so that you export only the segments of your videos, that you will use in your compilation. This will make you save a lot of editing later as well as save you have to work with big, huge you files use only short segments.

  The best way to do this depends on how you are going to publish your finished video. It goes to a DVD? BluRay? YouTube or another site online? Video to a portable device like an iPad?

  Each has its own workflow better.

• Export XML data analyzed

  Hello

  I have an AS3 script that analyzes the the iTunes library XML file and converts it into looking at something better and usable. The script works well and the well formed XML is traced in the output window. But I would like to export to an independent XML file instead of the output window. Does anyone know how I would go to this topic?

  Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

• Gallery style XML/AS3 Lightbox - need, starting point...

  I have made a slide show of the gallery before, but didn't was not as intuitive look back at it now and I want to start on this new project. I would like to convert a jQuery lightbox style gallery in a XML flash function AS3 photo gallery with categories. I don't want to code the FLA, I want separate as files.

  It is a school project for my Web site. I would like to use jQuery and I have more experience with it, but this project needs a flash component. I know not if at first and looking for some tips on how and where I could find resources. I want a minimum I can do;

  -8 thumbnails to a 'page/section' with more flowed on page 2 or 3 etc. (or a srcoller)

  -a few buttons for categories

  -images of fading in real size with a description when hovered over, and a close button

  -preloader (single bar)

  For something like this > http://www.layeredpixels.com/tf/unibox/#works that uses http://razorjack.net/quicksand/ for the thumbnails. It's perhaps ambitious, but I would be enough with a simple fade effect

  I am not a lot of time and need to focus on other projects in the meantime so fancy (again) would really help to find a good basis without effects. I downloaded a few galleries out there but most of the code is messy or outdated.

  http://www.republicofcode.com/Tutorials/Flash/as3gridgallery/8.php < it's good, but all the code is done in the FLA. I could break in UNDER form of files, but it depends. And I would like help with adding the categories to.

  I want to watch Greensock implement, so any pro out there who can give advice would greatly

  The best way to go is to choose a path of the solution and start about this.  Then, to get help, come with specific to solve coding problems and not a list of races of desires.

• Export XML question FM9

  Hello

  When you export to XML "File-Save as XML".

  FM exports all the information. Following is the display of the Structure:

  

  The XML output from this is:

  < ref >
  < Ref-installation-item id = "o00009-9-1230-783-00004" >
  < local link = "m00003-9-1230-783-00001" id = "m00003-9-1230-783-00001" > < / Ref-installation-point >.
  < Ref-installation-item id = 'o00009-9-1230-783-00007' >
  < local link = 's00001-9-1230-783-00050' id = ' s00001-9-1230-783-00050 "> < / Ref-installation-point >.
  < Ref-installation-item id = "o00009-9-1230-783-00010" >
  < local link = "o00031-9-1230-783-00001" id = "o00031-9-1230-783-00001" > < / Ref-installation-item > < / Ref > ".

  As you can see the text of 'link' element is missing and is not closed... any ideas?

  Of course - that would be my answer.  You don't need to force it to a frame of link - it can be treated as any other XML structure assuming that you have code that knows how to convert a link in HTML from the original XML structure.  Make a container and get rid of the rules R/W and it should come out just like the original DTD specification.

• Export XML to the local path. Compliance check

  Some questions that we are wrapping up development on our form.

  First of all, I'm trying to create a button that will save the XML file that is exported to a local path, IE, c:\\windows\desktop

  I found this: xfa.data.saveXML (); which I put in the click event, but how can I say to save in a way?  (and while we're at it, specify a file name)

  Alternatively I tried to use the built in buttons-email, HTTP, but I was unable to find documentation on how to build the code.  I know pretty much anything can be added to the XML source, but I need is a pointer to this that the best way to handle this and how to build the instructions to save the path.  It is for our directors extract XML file and import it in their database.

  Second question: what is the best way to let a user perform a completeness check?  I like how the default email send button checks all fields set to "the user has entered required" and I would like to configure a button that similarly does a completeness check and then warns the user that there are fields to the left or confirms that the form is complete, perhaps with instructions on what to do next.  What is the best way to handle this?  The presentation plan is the user save the pdf locally and then manually upload it to a server that requires a connection, then administrators will export the XML file and import it into a database.

  Thanks for your understanding...

  1. you cannot include a path or file name in this statement (unless you certify the document which has problems of its own). The user must select the path and name (for security reasons). By default, it will save the data in an XDP format. You can switch to another parameter that saves the file with the extension xml instead.

  xfa.host.exportData ("", false)

  2. just add a normal button and add code to the click event that will run all the validations for the form. Assuming that the root node of your form form1:

  Form1.execValidation)

  This will return a true or false value depending on whether there are validation errors or not. So you could combine this with an if statement:

  If (form1.execValidate () == true) {}

  code to cause the shipment arrives

  submitButtonName.execEvent ("click")

  } else {}

  App.Alert ("there are validation errors in your form!")

  }

  Hide you the real send in this case button if the user could not bypass your code.

  Hope this helps

• Advice needed on scanning and organization of large amounts of family photos

  I have about 4000 photos, I need to digitize and organize, and would appreciate information on the experiences of people with similar projects - specifically what scanners and software editing/organization work well (or not) and why. I am interested in scanning experience, naming, entering in the metadata tags / and storage on an external drive (or drive possible cloud) as effective as possible. I have a MacBook Pro towards 2012, running OS X El Capitan 10.11.6, processor 2.9 GHz Intel Core i7 with 8 GB 1600 Mhz DDr2 memory

  I waited for someone to answer, but no luck so far.

  I think that, maybe, the question is too broad, but you hit on a lot of issues that I tried to respond in support of my own digitization projects. These are essentially old photos and family concert tickets, I've gathered that I want to geocode instead and add an event date to sort the pictures correctly in my reader, I now use pictures all to also store the main images in the form of files in folders.

  One of the first things that you need to consider what is my final use, how will be I be display these carelessly or what their final destination, that is to say: the screen or print. Next, you will need to examine and decide what are your basic quality standards.  Is it an archiving project where you might want to get the maximum resolution to capture your images or you are looking for very high resolution - pixel specific pick - and go deep with it.  What types of files you save; jpg or RAW or another.

  Don't forget the file type is like a box and the picture is in the box, you can have the same image quality in each type of file and each has positive points and negatives, jpgs are the most common, can display high-quality, but at the root with loss.

  It is to you and how you want to store, manage and share.  You could take a sweeping super high ground - better as your scanner may take - and a large jpg copy for sharing, etc.

  Depending on how you answer the above, in terms of desired scan quality, will affect what kind of scanner that you buy. I used several descent average range flat scanners, a versatile case and a wand at a crossing through of dock that I just got.

  I decided quite a while that I'm not in the business of archive I'm in enjoy it there and share business. IF they look good in an email or on Facebook or on my big screen as screensaver, even for the large TV. Then, I have what I need. It is for me. Others feel differently. For me in the end, it's the time it took to take a sweeping super high quality in order to get an image, which overwhelms my screen and has a huge file size. You have to play and see what works for you.

  I just got this scanner wand 1200 dpi with a dock charger and it quickly arranged a pile of concert tickets at its highest quality of scanning. I was happy with the initial results and I can't wait to make some pictures.

  There are a lot of details, you can enter each of these topics, but here you say basically software that controls the scanner. On a flat bed I hope you can scan several small images at once by selecting them in the program. You select the output resolution, file type, and can perform a variety of other adjustments to the image, which some will be dictated by the source.  As the digitization of old photos 'black and white' in color.

  You will need to consider certain issues of workflow here, the scanner software will generally look to create file names to sequential access to what you are scanning. If it's a large image at a time, you can name each or there may wish to work through a lot of dimensions and similar features and then mess with the baptism and the meta data later.  You will find what works best for you as enter you.

  You have now all these files. For me, it was ticket_1 - 90.jpg who had to have their date, time and locations adjusted. I've been messing around with photos of geocoding for years and so far my favorite geogocder and meta-data tool is called photolinker http://www.earlyinnovations.com/photolinker/ that I started using it because I was using a geo - stay with my regular camera and I wanted to match the Geo-trail of the recorder for pictures and this tool does that very well , with tools for helpsync the time of the image and geolog times. or you can give it an address or a city or a block and he will score as many images you select. It will give them a geocode latitude and longitude (altitude in some cases) as well as the metadata for the region city of the State, etc.

  It also gives you quick access to metadata, including tiles, descriptions, keywords, etc. and I do as well of this titration and marking here as I can. as well as the geocoding.  Dates are a very special case that I will come back soon.

  So analysis stuff you give a whole bunch of files and you need to decide how you want to sort and store them. My family photos I usually sort in events and it is pretty easy because the images were of particular type of event and then something holidays. So I in my folder of photos folders called things like:

  1909 - Granma baby pictures

  1931_12_25-moms first Christmas.

  1952_07_21-dad comes from the service.

  etc with this kind of naming structure. months of the year and day, if I know that it and the event.

  The photos then if there are few have specific names for files. If it is more like '1986_07-Florida_ #1-72' and let the meter. If I can be precise date in each event, I try to do, since we are talking about scans and no pictures of digital cameras, if the clock is set right and phones that capture this info.

  The deal with dates, as I mentioned earlier, can be a mess and I have found no real primer on how best to define and manage the dates on scanned images, but here is a part from what I understand. First of all remember that the dates of creation and modification in your finder associated with the file that contains the image, but not necessarily the image itself. Each image also has various sets of metadata that is stored with the images, called EXIFdata, this is where you find the geocoded and other data type keyword, you may be added, such as discussed above.

  As I said I have use pictures formerly iPhoto to see my images now and it does not always play nice with dates, but I think I understood now that it uses a date edit EXIF, to place images in the long scenario.

  Other non-traditional software I use for batch file renamed and full playback and editing of EXIF data are GraphicConverter 10 adata-and-more-on-your-mac/ https://www.lemkesoft.de/en/image-editing-slideshow-browser-batch-conversion-met

  This should be a lot of things to get started, I've always wanted to write that down and happy to now have at hand. Many men of straw - for people to start to sting to, assisting us on the tools and means better or different. I hope. I also hope that this help find you your first steps. Good luck.
