I am looking to generate an image from database information.
This is a feature used in many community websites to allow users to generate an image with their profile information to share in forum signatures and so on.
I have seen this executed by either generating an image link, or an embed code.
I understand this will probably not be a short answer, but I was hoping someone could point me in the right direction so I can research it.
Thankyou.

I`m sorry if this is the not right place to ask. If not please delete this.
I`m looking for someone that can help me with a very simple program that can do this:
Login into accounts on an website and extract there a number from every account and and save the details ( account number - the number that must be saved ) on an txt file.
I need this for my job. This program will save me a`lot of time. this is the purpose.
If anybody can help me please let me know. thank you very much.
Fortunately for you, there is ample tooling available.
I will provide you some insight into related tools in the Python ecosystem, since that is what I am most familiar with and also an easy languages for beginners to work with.
If what you are extracting/scraping is relatively simple and doesn't require complex UI interaction with website elements, I would recommend requests Sessions to retain cookies and additional information for use in a series of authenticated requests, and bs4 to parse document trees in order to extract the data you are interested in.
For more complex interaction, you will need to look towards browser automation and possibly more advanced scraping frameworks. Hopefully I've given you enough keywords to go far in Google.
Of course, you'll need to first learn the basics of programming and how web data is structured if you want to write scripts like this. That is left to you to learn and absorb.
I am looking for a way to programmatically examine a pdf cad drawing, plain 2D print, and pull out all the dimensions along with the locations of the dimensions on the page. I am in search of technologies that will allow me to do this.
I'm looking at leadtools, PDFBox, iText, TET, Adobe SDK and trying to do some comparison among them. I am particularly interested in recognizing dimensions/numbers and shapes accurately and the api must have ability to extract location info as well. Any past experiences with any of these or helpful insight on the good ones/bad ones would be greatly appreciated!!
We can provide relevant information about the LEADTOOLS part of your question since it's our product.
If the PDF contains actual text and not just an image of text, you can extract it directly without going through OCR. To do that, use the Leadtools.Pdf.PDFDocument.ParsePages() method.
If you’re dealing with images that contain both text and non-text areas, you could use Leadtools.ImageProcessing.Core.AutoZoningCommand to isolate the text zones (areas) and get their coordinates. You could then use either our OCR engine or your own code. If you try this and don’t get satisfactory results, there could be other advanced options to help you, but we might need to see actual samples you’re working with. If you like, email some sample files to our support address and mention what you tried so far.
I am new to vb.net and from pas few days i have been searching for some information. I was not able to find any proper guidance online so finally i thought that i should post here.
I want to develop a solution for EPC, electronic parts catalog. The problem i am facing is to click on the numeric numbers in an image to filter a data set.
I have tried searching online through several sources. I have tried to look into some image processing plugins as well but i was not able to find something robust and understandable as i have mentioned i am new.
Kindly can someone guide me towards the right direction.
Thanks,
I am trying to place amazon search bar for books category in my website, where user searches for a book and is redirected to amazon website. My URL should be tagged with my associate ID so that i can earn some money.
The problem is i am unable to find any procedure to create such search bar. I have browsed through Product advertising API section, but it is very confusing.
I want exactly like this: http://amasearchbar.com/demo-blog/
Can someone help me how to make such autocomplete search bar, or provide me directly the code for it.
Any help is appreciated.
Amazon isn't likely to give instructions for how to create something like that - but they do give you the tools necessary to figure it out yourself if you're willing to learn their API.
Without more information, it's hard for anyone here to "help" you either.
That link you gave is to a WP plugin. Are you using WP? If so, your easiest bet is to buy the plugin and use that (I am not endorsing that plugin specifically, I have no experience with it).
If you give more specifics on what language you're wanting to use to create the search bar and its interaction with the API, and specific problems you run into while working on it, this community will be much more likely to help you. Questions to point you to a free source for the finished code of your project are not likely to get very far though.
Based on your previous questions, it seems likely that you are using Wordpress. If that's the case, and you don't know how to write the scripts to interact with the API then the easiest answer to your question by far is to either buy a plugin (perhaps the one you linked) or hire someone to write one. If you'd like to learn, there are a lot of resources online to help you start learning to write WP plugins.
As part of an enhancement to my workplace processes, we're trying to streamline review of various documents.
Yeah, there's way better alternatives to what I'm about to suggest, but the reality is that I have no time allocated to investigate things like DAV, repo setups and such.
What I do have time allocated for is improving workflow around tools we already use. So I tried to work through the Adobe PDF collaborative review cycle.
I have to say it was pretty amazing, from the notify toolbar icon to doc merging, to user access control. They offer it all, EXCEPT the ability to actually apply review changes to a PDF!?!
To clarify, after sending a PDF through the collab review cycle (involving a bunch for external editors and internal staff) the end result was a PDF full of rich feedback - but I can see no way to finalised and apply those 'accepted' review points to the PDF in question.
I hope this is clear enough, feel free to ask questions to clarify - perhaps I'm just missing something obvious, but perhaps applying changes to an already existing PDF is not possible?

In short, and long, no. They can't. Gutted.
