The OpenEdge Hive

Good Morning.
I need a help, with the PDFInclude library
I need to generate a PDF document, based on another PDF template document.
When copying the file into the new generated, I must change a word within the template.
Eg, inside the pdf file, read the string "& OP" and when generating a new swap file
the string by the number of the Production Order.
If someone has a very simple model, and I'm very grateful.
I'm trying to use the procedure: pdf_ReplaceTxt, but to no avail.

Thank you

Is there a way you fill out form fields on a PDF while retaining the fields on output? I'm trying to fill in a portion of a pdf form and would like the end user to be able to continue filling in the form after I've created my output? Right now the fields get filled in but the output no longer has form fields.

Hi,
I have one query on PDF417, currently we have in our organization a software which his using PDF417 font. But now we are planning to print the PDF using PROGRESS (version Open Edge 11) with PDF Include library and use the same “PDF417” font for Barcode printing.
We are trying to get this font but not able to get the all the files, Can anyone guide us how to implement this font?

Thanks in advance !

Hello, I wonder if you can use pdfinclude in AIX environment?
What are the requirements for this?
You have to change some pdfinclude line of code?

Hi all

I want to create encrypted (password protected) pdf files. Can this be done currently using PDFInclude on Linux and/or AIX?

We are using OpenEdge 11.2 (64 bit) on Red Hat Linux (also 64 bit), as well as Progress 9.1E (32 bit) on AIX (64 bit).

We have been creating pdf files successfully for years - but without passwords - using an old 2004 version of PDFInclude on both versions of Progress.

Thanks.

Hi all.

I have encrypted a document and when I open using Adobe PDF reader, it prompts for the password which is fine. If I however open the same document using PDF Complete, it doesn't prompt for the password, the document just opens. This is happening with most of my users whose I-Pads use PDF Complete as a default PDF reader. Please help!!

Hi,
I just wanted to use Barcode. I checked manual and seen the code39.ttf and downloaded it from http://www.fonts2u.com/bar-code-39.font. I installed it on my win7 computer.

But I don't know what should I do after now.
My code is:

RUN pdf_set_font ("Spdf","Code39",10.0).
RUN pdf_text_xy ("Spdf","123123123",200,300).

But it's getting "corrupted pdf" error. Where should I save this ttf file? How can I use barcodes on my pdf file?
