I'm not sure how Photoshop works but when I receive an AI file from another computer I get an error regarding the images:
'Could not find the link file 'exampleimage.jpg'.
So I'm guessing the other person would have to send me the images separately?
Is this how Illustrator works?
I'm sure for Photoshop you don't have to do this?
Any info would be helpful.
Cheers
In Illustrator, if you go to menu File/Place, this will allow you to place other art files directly into your open illustrator document. If someone gives you that illustrator file and they do not give the "placed" files as well, when you open the illustrator document it will give you that error message because it cannot locate those files that were placed.
While using the "place" command in Illustrator, if the "link" check box is selected, anytime a placed file into illustrator gets edited and saved outside of illustrator, the edits made to that placed file will update the changes in Adobe Illustrator.
If the photos in their document are not embedded, you will need the images separately. Once you have the images, when you open the file on the new computer, you may need to manually associate the photos with each placeholder to make sure it renders properly.

My site draws a column chart. I have a button to save it as a PDF file showing it before saving.
The way it works now is this.
google.visualization draws the chart.
html2canvas takes a screenshot of the chart.
jsPDF inserts the screenshot in a PDF file and shows it to the user.
The problem is the name of the PDF file. It is something like 5d78c1eb-0829-4e7e-8ffc-71cf1f102f56.pdf and the url is blob:http://example.com/5d78c1eb-0829-4e7e-8ffc-71cf1f102f56
When user sees the PDF and clicks save he receives this awful file name.
Now I show the PDF this way:
window.open(doc.output('bloburl'), '_blank');
I can set desired file name if I change this line to this:
doc.save('sample-file.pdf');
But in such a case the file just downloads but I need to show it first.
Is there a way to show the PDF and give it a desirable name? I tried this:
window.open(doc.output('bloburl', {filename: 'myFileName.pdf'}), '_blank');
But it did not help.
Another way I see is not showing the PDF from jsPDF, but sending images to the server and making a PDF file there using TCPDF. The files made with TCPDF can have a name I give it, but I think it is dumb to send the images there and back.
So the question is how can I make a PDF and show it to the user with the name I want?
At the moment the answer is no. You can download it directly, as mentioned in the accepted answer of this question: Download with filename
But you create an objectUrl and therefore the filename is always the url.
Maybe you could create an browser-extension for this...but I haven't had the time to try yet. Furthermore, you can't expect your visitors to have the extension installed.
Please, help me and tell me what am I missing.
My goal is to display simple PDF file (stored locally for example) in the WebView control. Can I bind path of the file to the Source property of the WebView? Or what is the correct way to show PDF in UWP?
P.S. and if the only option is to do like here - how must I add pdf.js to my project??
My goal is to display simple PDF file (stored locally for example) in the WebView control.
If you want to display pdf in WebView control, then the methods in Display a Local PDF File in a WebView is most like the only way to solve your problem.
You can follow the steps in the xamarin official document, and here are some additional tips we need to pay attention to:
After downloading pdfjs, for UWP app, you need to copy the entire folder into the Assets folder, make sure that the folder is named "pdfjs", otherwise you will need to modify the code to change the path.
Your .pdf file should be stored into the Content folder under the Assets folder, it means you will need to create a new folder named "Content" under Assets and copy your .pdf file into this folder. Otherwise, you will also need to modify the code to change the path.
After copying your .pdf file into the "Content" folder, don't forget to change the Build Action of this file to Content like this:
Or what is the correct way to show PDF in UWP?
In uwp app, you can use Image to show PDF file, you can refer to the official PDF document sample. But I don't know if PDF can be displayed as Image in Android and IOS apps, since you're developing a cross-platform project, I think it's better to use the built-in method to solve such problem.
If a demo for xamarin UWP is needed, you can leave a comment, I will upload my demo later.
I have some pdf uploaded on my website. I want my clients to fill them out on my website, and save a filled out copy to their system. The only way I have found this could be done is by clicking on print button and then save from there.
Can it possibly be done any other way. Does using Adobe LiveCycle could help?
Thanks in Advance.
I have a PowerPoint 2010 file saved as a PowerPoint Macro-enabled show (.ppsm) file. I have a hyperlink on a particular page of the PPSM and I've linked it to a PDF file. Great, it all works.
Now I need to put a hyperlink in the PDF file that will jump me back to the specific page in the PPSM, but I can't seem to figure out how to do it. The information in another thread says to add "#15" (the page number) to the filename, but the link seems to put the entire file path. I also get an error that this is not a valid file name. I want to be able to just store the files together in the same directory and have them find each other with the file name, not the whole path.
All assistance gratefully accepted.
If you're running the slide show and link to a PDF file, the show is still running and sitting on the slide you linked from.
All you need to add to the PDF is a link that closes the PDF or possibly quits Acrobat/Reader altogether.
Open the PDF in Acrobat, add a link, choose Custom Link, click Next.
In Link Properties dialog box, go to the Actions tab
Select Action: Execute a menu item.
Click Add to get a list of available menu items, choose File, Close
or File, Exit.
If you need to return to some other page than the one you started on in PPT, it gets a bit trickier.
