JavaScript to invite the user to save in PDF format

I make the changes with the code for the file. I want the user to be prompted to save as a file .ai first. I have that down. Now, I'm eager to have the user immediately prompted to save as pdf with only the option optimize for fast web view selected. I think it's an adobe built-in smallest file size.

The reason for wanting the guest is because I want to save the files in 2 different places.

Here is my code so far...

var doc = app.activeDocument;
// Save as .ai file  
var fileName = doc.fullName;  
var thisFile = new File(fileName);
var saveFile = thisFile.saveDlg();
doc.saveAs (saveFile);


// Save as .pdf file
var pdfSaveOptions = new PDFSaveOptions();  
pdfSaveOptions.pDFXStandard=PDFXStandard.PDFXNONE;  
pdfSaveOptions.compatibility = PDFCompatibility.ACROBAT5;  
pdfSaveOptions.preserveEditability = false;  
  
var pdfFile = new File(fileName);  
doc.saveAs(pdfFile, pdfSaveOptions);

HAVE CS4 Windows 7 64 bit

the folder structure is already existing?

If so, things are simple.

If the name and the number are in the file you could draw that from the entry rather then manual doc to guests.

(Note that there is no test to check the folders exist etc...)

var job = prompt("Enter Job Name");
var num = prompt("Enter Job Number");
aiFile = "D:\\"+job+"\\"+num+"\\AI\\Schematic.ai"
pdfFile = "D:\\"+job+"\\"+num+"\\PDF\\Schematic.pdf"

var newaiFile = new File(aiFile);
var doc = app.activeDocument;
doc.saveAs (newaiFile);

var pdfOpts = new PDFSaveOptions();
pdfOpts.pDFXStandard=PDFXStandard.PDFXNONE;
pdfOpts.compatibility = PDFCompatibility.ACROBAT5;
pdfOpts.preserveEditability = false;
var newpdfFile = new File(pdfFile);
doc.saveAs(newpdfFile, pdfOpts);

If you want the script to create the folders so it is a little more difficult.

JavaScript will not do that, and you need another work autour.

something like that...

if (Folder(qfolder).exists){
app.activeDocument.saveAs( saveName, saveOpts );
}else{
           //alert("about to try bat");
           batpath= 'call "C:\\Adobe Scripts\\MakeDirectory.bat"';
            battemp = new File("C:\\Adobe Scripts\\tempBAT.bat");
            battemp.open("w");
            battemp.writeln(batpath + " " + qfolder);
            battemp.close();
            battemp.execute();
         //alert("Had to Create Folder, Please press OK to continue...");
            $.setTimeout = function(func, time) {
                    $.sleep(time);
                    func();
            };
         $.setTimeout(function(){ app.activeDocument.saveAs( saveName, saveOpts )},200);
         }
}

the MakeDirectory.bat is just:

ECHO OFF
CLS

IF %1=="" GOTO BLANK

SET savepath=%*
MKDIR %savepath%
GOTO FINISH

:Blank
ECHO No Folder provided
GOTO FINISH

:FINISH

the tempBat.bat is used to call the MakeDirectory.bat with the name of the file as an argument.

When you have what you want to save the selected PDF file, make sure that you press properties, and set the resolution in the settings. PDF files themselves have quality settings, (print quality, Web quality etc) then make sure that you have the right to a game if you plan to use the "print" function to save in PDF format.

Thans in advance.

When you print a VI, you can choose to print documents of the VI and print it to the printer. If you install the PDF printer, it will appear as a selection. PDF Creator is one of the PDF printer free that you could use.

5.5 InCopy user cannot save to PDF low resolution

The user complains that they can only save as pdf high resolution pdf not low resolution.
Is there a way to do this in InCopy?
Harlan

InCopy users have not 'res pdf' control... it downsize images to 150 dpi, which I think is more a "res intermediary." Images that are less than 150ppi initially are left as is.

The only way to get the images to a smaller resolution is to open the PDF file in Acrobat Pro and do a Save optimized As it or to reduce file size.

The gray image - save as pdf - CMYK

Hi all
I am trying to convert the gray image to grayscale pdf with Save as option. Once done the procedure, the pdf file after CMYK mode (verified in print in Acrobat production method) below.
Guide to, how to clear this problem.
Original image:
Step 1: converted to gray
Step 2: Save as pdf with few options
Step 3: setting of pdf
Step 4: Verify in acrobat, this occurs for the CMYK mode
But I need grayscale mode (only for black. (Black once only wide, no need to display the image).

In my test, using shades of gray and high print quality, the PDF file contains a gray scale,

not a CMYK image, found by PDF analysis, image on the right.

IMO, your test is bad. Your PDF file is grayscale, but the profile of your simulation is

a CMYK profile, as in the image on the left.

In such a case, a conversion is simulated. It would be correct to use a grey profile

as a simulation profile, but this type of test does not reveal what kind of image the

PDF file contains.

Hello!
I'm just getting started with LiveCycle Designer (and LC as a whole) and feel really lost with the lack of information for absolute beginners.
For now, I am trying to build a form to be distributed among customers and then sent back with full of information.
I create the form in the designer, opt for delivery in PDF format, save them as PDF, open in Acrobat to extend the rights of users... but when I test the form... I get the news in XML format.
I tried again and again and still got the same results. I m reeeeealy get frustrated.
Please, please, help!
Thanks a lot for all ideas.

Change the type of your Email button submit to the 'button' (click the dropdown of the part highlighted in her will keep you attached screenshot).

Then place the code in the click event of the button below. Set the language "Java script".

event.target.submitForm ({cURL: "mailto:[email protected]?subject=FORM TEST", cSubmitAs:"PDF"}); "})

Why are misunderstood paragraphs when I do save as PDF format

I use 12 FrameMaker and Acrobat Pro XI. When I do a 'Save As PDF' of a book and you select the bookmarks that I want and you organize their hierarchy etc. Acrobat includes formats of paragraphs that I chose not. For example, it seems to include a random selection of table of contents entries, I have doesn't have a selection to include.
I went back and checked that all the paragraphs are the correct formats, but it continues to be.
In addition, once I generated the PDF file, PDF settings I chose are not registered correctly. In other words, whenever I do a 'Save as PDF' I select paragraphs formats I want to include in the form of bookmarks again; It seems to have saved some of them, but not all of them.

Any ideas?

Bookmark information (i.e. PDF configuration information) are stored with each file/book, so if you have saved the file, these parameters must also be registered. Try using the Format > Document > PDF of installation... ability to define things way th in the book and then save the book. The correct settings are currently maintained the next time that you open the book and the need to create a PDF file?
