Re: [python-win32] AVDoc and PDDoc
From: Michael S [EMAIL PROTECTED] I am trying to write a short Python script to create some PDFs. I create instances of App, AVDoc and PDDoc using the following syntax: app = Dispatch(AcroExch.App) doc = Dispatch(AcroExch.AVDoc) pd = Dispatch(AcroExch.PDDoc) However when I call pd = doc.GetPDDoc(), the Python interpreter complains about the member function not being found. I know for sure that it is there, since I can execute the code in VB no problem. was experimenting with Acrobat months ago import win32com.client.dynamic NOSAVE = -1 PDSAVEFULL = 1 class Acrobat2pdfError(RuntimeError): pass def Acrobat2pdf(src, dst): avdoc = win32com.client.dynamic.Dispatch(AcroExch.AVDoc) if not avdoc.Open(src, doc2pdf): raise Acrobat2pdfError(unable to open %s % src) pddoc = avdoc.GetPDDoc() if not pddoc.Save(PDSAVEFULL, dst): raise Acrobat2pdfError(unable to save %s % dst) if not pddoc.Close(): raise Acrobat2pdfError(unable to close %s % dst) del pddoc if not avdoc.Close(NOSAVE): raise Acrobat2pdfError(unable to close %s % src) del avdoc if __name__ == '__main__': import os src = rC:\test\file1.doc dst = rC:\test\file2.pdf Acrobat2pdf(src, dst) assert os.path.isfile(dst) ___ Python-win32 mailing list Python-win32@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-win32
Re: [python-win32] Code help (Aleksandar Cikota)
FocusMax.FocusControl.Focus starts the auto focus operation and returns when Focus is complete. This Method has the same effect as if the user clicked the Focus button on the Focus tab (in FocusMax), but there is no reaction and I don't get any error message. Python code: FM.Focus() # you need the parentheses to call the method in VBScript, the parentheses are not required I sometimes forget the parentheses too when porting VB COM code to Python ___ Python-win32 mailing list Python-win32@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-win32
Re: [python-win32] String weirdness on python 2.4 / windows
Date: Thu, 20 Oct 2005 10:04:24 +1000 From: Kinsley Turner [EMAIL PROTECTED] I checked the icon, it seemed to be ok. I'm unfamiliar with win32 tools, but it seemed that the data being delivered from the socket rendered differently from a python print() compared to a terminal 'type icon.ico'. I cut the code out and tested it in isolation - this showed it to be flawless. Despite appearing correct in other software the binary identical icon appears broken in IE 6.something. for what its worth, had a similar problem serving up images from a Python CGI script running on Apache on WinXP. what worked for me was adding the -u switch to the shebang #!E:\Python23\python.exe -u -u : unbuffered binary stdout and stderr (also PYTHONUNBUFFERED=x) see man page for details on internal buffering relating to '-u' hope this helps ___ Python-win32 mailing list Python-win32@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-win32
[python-win32] run external program but with timeout
Greetings, I want to run an executable but I need to be able to kill it if it has not completed after 5 or so minutes. Googling gets me signal.signal(signal.SIGALRM, handler) but I need to use this from Windows. I have Python 2.3.4 on WinXP Pro. Had a look at the Python for Windows Documentation and it seems that I can use the win32process module. I will have a go at this but if anybody has done this before and would be willing to share, please do. Thank you. ___ Python-win32 mailing list Python-win32@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-win32

Just now found a Demos folder and a winprocess.py file that at first glance will be exactly what I need. ___ Python-win32 mailing list Python-win32@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-win32
