create and save pdf
Hello List, I'm hoping to find some help here, a client wants me to create a database driven application for his products. This is not the problem the problem is his demand for being able to export a "page" with images to a pdf file on his HD. I have been searching the internet for the best way to accomplish this task, the only xtra I have found that claims it could do the trick is the DirectImage xtra (used to be directXport). Is there anybody out there that has used this xtra to dynamically create/export a PDF? What are the limitations? Is there a better solution? I own a copy of PdfXtra (V. 2.2), but it seams to have no options to create/edit a pdf. Many thanks in for any help, Mark van den Elzen [To remove yourself from this list, or to change to digest mode, go to http://www.penworks.com/lingo-l.cgi To post messages to the list, email [EMAIL PROTECTED] (Problems, email [EMAIL PROTECTED]).

RE: Print PDF file
I have successively used the PDF Xtra from Integration New Media with
success for several projects to print pdf files, another solution then
the one you try to achieve but if you get stuck on the BuddyAPI way...
I apologize if this is not the right forum for this question, but...
I am attempting to print a pdf file from a cd without the user seeing
the acrobat reader interface. I am using BuddyAPI. I am running the
program full screen. When testing from my hard drive, I click the
button that is used to print the pdf, my taskbar pops up and I have to
click back on the director program again to regain focus. Is there a
way to run this script without having my taskbar appear and thus taking
focus of the director program?
BTW... I am using the following code to print the pdf file...
on mouseDown
vResult = baPrintFile("acrobat.pdf")
End
Thanks in advance for any help.

Can I use a xtra so I won't have to install Quicktime?
Hello you all, Is there an xtra out there who can play quicktime in a cd-rom presentation even if the user does not have quicktime installed? I believe the direct media mpeg xtra could do this, but I can't reach there site and I don't know if it would work with the Sorenson codec..

RE: speech
Something is wrong with the extra, when I try to add it to my movie extra list I can't find it. But I did found it in the xtra folder of director. I really wanted to test the extra so I kept trying new things. I got the thing to work, I used the sample code, created an projector and when you run the projector no errors and you can hear your computer speak! I don't know why it is not working from within director, and it might be working in the full package (I use the first demo) -- installed DMX 2 days ago, en now got a mail saying there is an update on trial because it was buggy on the speech thing... unstalled the old one, installed the new one, but no speech at all. how do you make the speech running? got nothing in lib, no xtra... if i put servicevoice() as describe in note at M site, got "handler not definied", so i guess the xtra is just ain't there at all...or i'am totally blind. someone can point me out the way to give a voice to my texts?

RE: property's in property lists
Thanks a lot, well worth looking into. Been working to hard I think, I'm overlooking obvious things. Well almost Christmas :D - I think this will work: assign pMyProperty a symbol instead of a string property pMyProperty, pMyList on new me pMyProperty = #thisOne --assign pMyProperty a symbol instead of a string pMyList = [#notTheOne: [1,1,1], #thisOne: [2,2,2], #notThisOne: [3,3,3]] end on myHandler me put pMyList.pMyProperty --- this is my problem, it searches for a string called "pMyProperty" instead of for my property "thisOne" end ng with programming Lingo.

property's in property lists
Hello I'm new to this list, my question might had an answer before but I need help rather quickly. I want to extract info from a property list using a property. I know this sounds confusing so I will use an example: property pMyProperty, pMyList on new me pMyProperty = "thisOne" pMyList = [#notTheOne: [1,1,1], #thisOne: [2,2,2], #notThisOne: [3,3,3]] end on myHandler me put pMyList.pMyProperty --- this is my problem, it searches for a string called "pMyProperty" instead of for my property "thisOne" end I hope I was clear enough, any help would be appreciated!
