Users of readers and add an attachment

When PDF files is enabled for users of reader, users of readers have access to all the tools of comments. As a result, they are able to select the tool attach and click on the PDF file to attach a file. I don't want to insert a file in the PDF file. It must be an attachment. So far so good.

But I want to make it easy for Reader users to attach a file, without having to explain the steps involved. The PDF form will be sent to about 100 users of Reader, and I want to reduce the risk of errors and these users of Reader questions. My first thought was to make a button they can click that would bring the Attach tool, but is not one of the standard Actions for buttons.

Would it be possible to have a button they could click to bring up the Attach tool or other method to make it easy for users of readers to attach a file?

Unfortunately no. actually you exploit a loop hole in the strategy of 'Rights' from Adobe.  You are not supposed to be able to add attachments to PDF in the drive at all, unless the PDF file has explicit rights of attachment.   There is a way to use JavaScript to place the PDF file attachment Annotation, but it does not display the file dialog box.  You do the best you can already.

  • SSO allows only local users of OS and not?

    We are small: 3 guests with about 40 virtual machines.  I only need a server to do all my stuff vcenter, and that's how I ran through 4.1.

    I intend to do a simple install, during the upgrade to 5.1.  I'd do it rather _not_ deal with Single Sign-On Donostiarra, adding and according to my Active Directory if I can help it.  Reading of the vSphere vCenter Server 5.1 Upgrade Guide ESXi, around 30-31 pages, it appears I can indeed just use SSO with local users and not need to discover AD at all.  Here again, it is not exactly clear to me.

    Here's what he said:

    Page 30-31

    How vCenter Single Sign-On affects vCenter Server upgrades:

    When you upgrade to vCenter Server 5.1, the upgrade process installs vCenter Single Sign On first, then upgrades vCenter Server...

    In vCenter Server 5.1, so vCenter Single Sign-On is... on a computer that is joined to an Active Directory domain, Single Sign-On will automatically discover the existing Active Directory domain and add it as a source of identity for the process of installing Single Sign-On. If the Single Sign-On is not running on a virtual machine or physical machine that is in the same domain as Active Directory, you must use the vSphere Web Client to connect to vCenter Server and add the Active Directory domain to single SignOn.

    If you install vCenter Single Sign-On and vCenter Server on the same physical or virtual computer, Single Sign-On recognizes existing users of local operating system. After the upgrade, you can connect to vCenter Server with a local operating system user ID.

    In vCenter Server 5.1, the term ' OS local users "refers to users the machine host Single Sign-On instead of the host to vCenter Server or virtual machine. After the upgrade, so no super Admin does (the administrative user or group for the root folder), you must provide a valid user or group as a super administrator during installation.

    So I can just be local admin user on my server vCenter Server, install the SSO, then the rest and make?  No need to attach the AD?

    PS: my current vCenter 4.1 server is indeed a member of our AD (Windows Server 2008), but it's mostly just do WSUS and others.  I do not AD require otherwise.

    TL; Dr: Yes your assumption is correct, local users are working with SSO, it is not necessary for users of the AD.

    long version:

    I would still install it as a domain user, if Autodiscover fails, don't bother on this subject. As long as you use install Simple (I rather advise you to install the components one after the other) or install SSO in basic Mode, you will be able to use your local users.

    If you ever decide you need users AD they can always be added at a later stage.

    If you install SSO without using Simple install do not forget to install basic as Multisite mode and Mode HA do not support the local system users.

  • How can I create a link or an installer that will open the bookmarks somebody bar and add some bookmarks?

    The goal is to embed a link in a word which, when clicked, opens the bookmarks bar and adds some bookmarks in the document. Another option would be that the link create icons from desktop to Web sites. The main deal breaker is we do not want to change the registry for this. All creative solutions are welcome.

    Thank you

    If it's for users as a whole and not in a given organization, forget the idea of profile, that would be much too intrusive.

    As noted by cor - el, an extension would have privileges to perform these changes. Some resources on developing extensions, since it is beyond the scope of this forum:

  • How can I add an attachment to an outgoing email?

    My old form of e-mail from aol had "attachment" appearing at the bottom to click when I wanted to add an attachment. My MozillaFirefox has no such notation that I can find. I tried several other buttons... but none worked. I'd appreciate any help you can provide. -Mel Dean

    You were talking about AOL in your question. My answer, however,
    is the same. Look carefully at everything. On my screen it looks like
    a trombone. Move your mouse over each icon to see what it is.
    Most web pages have drop-down menus. Look at them. And check
    help screens with suppliers.

  • suggestions and Add ons

    I am quite satisfied with 3.6.25 and have not updated because when I finally tried, perhaps v7 or v8, he told me a number of my caps in wouldn't work, especially my Citicard card virtual number taken. It seems you'd want to make sure that all caps that ins would work with newer versions.

    In addition, a comment on the new version numbering. I find it confusing and misleading. It makes much more sense to change the main figure with MAJOR updates, and then use the digits after the decimal places to indicate minor changes. I don't like the new system.

    Some add-on developers are able to cope with changes in Firefox, provide updates in time for their modules and strive to keep their users happy.

    Other add-on developers seem to be holding several weeks after a new version to fix their stuff instead of tests and fixing their shit during the six-week Beta period where no major changes are made (reactive vs proactive or wow, another release, already I am a professional and know about the new version of Firefox plan and assess Firefox users who use my add-on).

    And some developers Add on is not a crap regarding the update of their stuff beyond the 3.6 Firefox versions (as happened with each version of Firefox major since 2004 version). IMO, they are too chicken to tell you that they do not want to continue to provide Add-ons for Firefox, due to the rapid programming release.

  • How to add an attachment to a response in the mail

    With the help of Yosemite, if I add an attachment to a new email I wrote, when I write a response, no button is no longer entered in the toolbar. S the only way I can attach a file to an answer is to open a new page in e-mail, attach the file, and then copy and paste the copy in as the text of what I wrote in response. I can't believe that this is the way mail to Yosemite was designed to work.

    I found that the easiest way is to simply drag the image in the message window - have you tried?

    How can I add an attachment to my e-mail hotmail (Yes, I'm green)

    Hello just started,

    In your email window look just below the subject line of the email and you will see that a section marked Insert. Next to that is a paper clip with the word attachments. Click on the attachment. Now, the Explorer opens to allow you to locate the file you want to attach. Once you've found the file, click on it and it will start to load... When he was attached to the e-mail, you will see an icon of the file just below the toolbar of the insertion.
