How can I embed XML data in a PDF file?

I want to embed XML data in a PDF file if the file can be scanned for data behind the document. Is there a standard way to do this?

For example, if the PDF file is a bank statement, the embedded XML would be his number and bank account balances. He would not understand the standard text in the statement such as the name of the Bank, etc.

I read about the XMP specification, but this seems to be more than the document metadata (title, subject, etc.). And it contained are tagged but it's a different view of the entire document.

??? -Thanks - dave

Although the XMP block are stored in XML format, you can just embed any XML file. The block must follow the standard, which means that each data packet must be defined in a schema - as the name suggests, XMP is extensible, you can set the new scheme for local use, but you can't mess with standard seals and add random new tags. The schema itself is not embedded in the file, it is referenced by a unique ID number and URI. of course have a lot of data in a custom schema does not mean that any software will see it - advanced search of Acrobat can be said to sweep the XMP block, but the search engines only tend to bother with tags such as "title" and "description".

To see what is currently in a PDF file, open Document properties > Description > additional metadata > advanced.

You can save the current XMP block in a text (.xmp extension) file and replace/add other files XMP. If you click on the 'i' icon in the upper right corner of the Advanced dialog box, you can access the system profiles - these can be created in other applications such as the bridge, but there is no Manager profile in Acrobat itself.

For more technical information on the use of XMP and creating new schema, see http://www.adobe.com/devnet/xmp.html

Note that the XMP SDK for CS6 does not work in the Acrobat family.

    However, the link to the PDF document remains an option in the drop of hyperlink.

  • How can I validate the data in the control file?

    Consider that the SQLLoader reads the data entry of the path file and loads the data in the base tables up on top of the description specified in the control file.
    First, the form is created:

    create table sql_loader_1 (load_time date, digital Champ_1, Champ_2 varchar2 (10))
    Example of control file:
    load_1.CTL

    load data
    INFILE "load_1.dat", "str"\r\n"
    insert into table sql_loader_1
    (
    load_time sysdate,
    Champ_2 position (01:10).
    Champ_1 position(11:20)
    )
    Note that positions 11 to 20 are loaded in positions 1 to 10 in Champ_2 and Champ_1. The load_time field is filled with time current (sysdate) load.

    Here is the data. The name of the file (load_1.dat) had been specified with the statement for infile in the control file.

    load_1.dat

    0123456789abcdefghij
    **********##########
    foo bar
    This is a very long line
    and the next one is
    short

    declared the Champ_1 as a numeric data type, but the input data file contains the data "Sue"(position 11:20) so the sql loader adds not the record to the database instead the record is written in the bad file. But I want to validate the data of the "(position 11:20) is digital or not." How can I post this in the control file itself? If it is not possible, how can I validate it in the database? give me a sample code to explain this

    Here are two ideas.

    Idea 1: This control file will check to see if the data to be loaded in Champ_1 contains a number (including the negative and decimal).

    load data
    infile 'load_1.dat' "str '\r\n'"
    insert into table sql_loader_1
    (
    load_time sysdate,
    field_2 position( 1:10),
    field_1 position(11:20) "decode(trim(translate(:field_1,'-0123456789.',' ')),null,:field_1,-999)"
    ) 
    

    If Champ_1 is a number or null, it is passed through, as is. If there is no numeric characters (in addition to '-'and'.') a distinct value-999 will be inserted for you allow to load the rest of the columns and easy to see the lines had data that cannot be loaded in Champ_1. This idea has its flaws (a string like "... ("will always drain the .bad file)

    Idea 2: Load the data into a staging table first (or define an external table) where all columns are VARCHAR2. Then use SQL or PL/SQL to validate data in the staging table in your process to move the data into the table with the actual data types.

    Hello

    I have an oscilloscope (TDS2000) connected to my computer via USB. I want to record the oscilloscope data in a text file or a spreadsheet using labview. I'm new to labview. I only know about front panel and block right now. Please include a bit of inmates explain about data acquisition. Thank you

    I already said that your question has nothing to do with data acquisition devices of NOR. This means that DAQmx has nothing to do with it. You do NOT data, as defined in the world NOR / LabVIEW. On the main page of The Instrument Driver Network , you will see a section called "using the Drivers." The links that explain how to use the driver that you downloaded. The functions that you will be sliding to diagram must be in the Instrument of e/s palette, assuming that you have installed the driver properly.

  • I would like to present the entire pdf document not the xml data in the pdf file.

    Hello

    I have designed a form with some fields asking for details of the client.

    I have provided a "submit" on the PDF button. When the user clicks on submit button after filling in all the necessary details in the form. The submit button calls the servlet class and reads the data from the analysis of xmls pdf file and put in the database table.

    But I want to implement a senario where if the user clicks on the submit button. The full pdf and data inside get saved on the file server or the documentum server. Here, I don't want to read the fields in the form. I want to get and save the entire form.

    Please let me know how to do.

    concerning

    Sunil

    Make sure you use a normal button and set the property to "submit". Then you will see a tab for defining the type of presentation.

    Do not use the built-in submit button.

  • How can I prevent someone to save a PDF file

    I have a PDF file that I posted on my site, I want to make available for people to see, but not being able to print or save (the document... file - record; file-save-as or another method).  I figured out how to disable the print function, through security - permissions (authorized, unauthorized printing), however, I was not able to determine how to disable the registration function. I realized how do to hide the menu and tool bars (Options Security - view initial - user interface), however, his inconsistent views of the user.  Recommendations?  Thank you.

    Impossible. To view a PDF file, it must first be registered on the local computer.
    If you want to limit who can open the file and he then discovered you need to use the DRM protection, which is very expensive.
