Re: looping over PDF subforms
Fair enough. I got my client to exempt "on the fly" pdfs from 508 requirements. Although CF11/Splendor has some nice enhancements. PDFs and CF do seem to be a niche, at least in Adobe's eyes. I think they are badly underestimating it, but if only I ran the world...everything would be nice then. cf-talk@houseoffusion.com on Wednesday, July 16, 2014 at 12:09 PM -0700 wrote: >I can generate HTML tables and such all day long and use CFDOCUMENT to turn >it into a PDF, but it's not 508 Compliant because CFDOCUMENT doesn't >support tagging, > >My thought is to create predefined PDFs that are compliant and populate >them like you would a PDF Formthen merge the whole mess together, but I >can't fathom a way to repeatedly loop over a PDF form and repopulate it... ~| Order the Adobe Coldfusion Anthology now! http://www.amazon.com/Adobe-Coldfusion-Anthology/dp/1430272155/?tag=houseoffusion Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/message.cfm/messageid:358884 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/unsubscribe.cfm
Re: looping over PDF subforms
I am...I just have a cfdocumentsection within a cfloop that is looping through however many rows my query returned. Sometimes the page breaks can get goofy if there is a lot of data, in which case I test for greater than however many rows I can fit and insert a page break. cf-talk@houseoffusion.com on Wednesday, July 16, 2014 at 11:50 AM -0700 wrote: > >I know there are methods to populate pre defined PDF forms, which would >work except that alot of my data is multiple row format and I don't know >how many rows may be returned and I can't limit it ~| Order the Adobe Coldfusion Anthology now! http://www.amazon.com/Adobe-Coldfusion-Anthology/dp/1430272155/?tag=houseoffusion Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/message.cfm/messageid:358881 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/unsubscribe.cfm
SpreadsheetMergeCells and SpreadsheetFormatRow
I am creating a spreadsheet, and the first row is a merged cell with the title. I'd like an underline on this merged cell. However, only the first cell of the original unmerged first row is underlined. I worked around this by using topborder on row 2...but it seems like I should be able to underline a merged cell. Can anyone point out if I have something wrong?

Re: cfdocument question
Your code below will save the pdf in the same folder as your cf template.are you sure that is where your email is looking for the file? I usually have to give cfmail the full path from the root directory (c:\#myFullPath#\etc\etc\). Your configuration might be simpler, of course. cf-talk@houseoffusion.com on Monday, July 27, 2009 at 7:14 AM -0700 wrote: > >Any reason why the cfdocument line below does not save the file anywhere? >I try to attach it to an email and it cannot find this file. > > > >Thanks. > >RO >HWW > > > ~| Want to reach the ColdFusion community with something they want?

(ot) php commenting
Not CF related, but does anyone know what this is. When editing a php file in Dreamweaver, when you click on the comments button, you also get a choice that results in this: I can't find that documented anywhere and I guess I am just curious. It does result in an error on my server so I've learned to ignore it, but I am still wondering why it is there and what the heck it is. ~| Want to reach the ColdFusion community with something they want?

Re: css and cfdocument...grrr
Solid background behind table headers?.must be the pm slump because I
can't think what you mean, but maybe the stuff below will help.
I am using border-collapse and setting borders on all my table cells, like
this:
I am setting font and background color in the class as you can see from my
obtuse css naming scheme.
I also was able to get a watermark on my pdf in this way:
body{
background-image:url(/images/draftlandscape.jpg);
}
Anyway, best of luck. If you get to be an expert at all these tricks you
too can present at CFUnited. ;)

Re: css and cfdocument...grrr
I should have mentioned that I had to put everything in tables for layout. I also removed every non-basic CSS thing I had. I ended up with a print version and a simle print style sheet and the web version with its own nicer style sheet. My client had what is basically an accounting spreadsheet they wanted recreated in a web form, then pdf'd for an official copy. It took me almost 3 weeks to match the original's exact positioning, font, layout, etc. Good times. cf-talk@houseoffusion.com on Thursday, June 18, 2009 at 12:07 PM -0700 wrote: >Font sizes I specified in pt instead of em and I tried to do everything in >percentages with no px definitions under the theory that pdf is a vector >format.

Re: css and cfdocument...grrr
I use an alternate style sheet that sets fonts to a point size instead of em and has a fixed width. Even then, I sometimes run into an odd scaling down effect if there is too much data. Also, if you have images that you are resizing for the web, make an alternate actual size image for the pdf. cf-talk@houseoffusion.com on Thursday, June 18, 2009 at 11:50 AM -0700 wrote: > >The CSS file is definitely being included, so that's good.

Certified Adobe PDFs and cfdocument
>From what I've been able to find on the Adobe website so far, it seems there are different kinds of pdfs. PDFs created with Acrobat Pro can be digitally certified and locked to prevent the recipient from editing. CFDocument allows you to add a password, and prevent edits as well, but it is not the same as a digital certification. Does anyone else have any experience with this? What the project folks would like is to use ColdFusion to generate certified pdfs, but I don't think this is possible, as from the docs I've read so far, the pdf types are different. Any thoughts on this would be appreciated!

Dynamic column order
Sorry for the basic question, but here goes: I'm trying to allow the columns in a query output table to be dynamic in order, depending on the sort selection the user previously made in the form (in the form field form.sort). Form.sort has four fields in order, and they are comma-delimited. In other words, form.sort will contain something like "First, Last, City, State". The sql statement uses form.sort in order by. Then, I thought it would be nice if the columns showed up in the order the user selected. So on the search results page, I wrote form.sort to a series of variables that I can hopefully use in the CFOUTPUT, like this: Then I wrote out the table, like this: #variables.col1value# #variables.col2value# #variables.col3value# #variables.col4value# All I get in the output table though, is "variables.col1value".etc. I can't figure out what I did wrongany help would be appreciated! ~~ Structure your ColdFusion code with Fusebox.
