similar to: PDF Shipping Order Document Creation - Help, willing to pay...

Hello Rails Community, I put this request out to the community a few weeks ago and got one reply and he ended up being too busy to do it. So, let me try again. I have a need to generate a shipping order from an application that is rails driven. All the data for the shipping order is contained within two tables. I feel like it it too cumbersome to map out all the coordinates for the

Hello - I am trying to create a pdf file in R, but I keep getting an error that says it cannot open the pdf device. Here is the code and output: > pdf(file="test.pdf") Error in pdf(file = "test.pdf") : unable to start device pdf In addition: Warning message: In pdf(file = "test.pdf") : cannot open 'pdf' file argument 'test.pdf' Until yesterday I

Some people on this group may have understood from messages posted here that the Sipura SPA-2000 is not currently available for shipping. That is not the case. Voxilla.com has the Sipura SPA-2000 available for immediate shipping, and has had them since late November. The price is $109.95, and it comes with a month of free VoicePulse service with activation fees waived (a $65 value). In return

Full_Name: Marc Thibault Version: 2.8.1 OS: Windows XP Pro SP2 Submission from: (NULL) (216.104.125.106) I had Adobe Acrobat 5 and Adobe Reader 9 installed. The .pdf "open" association is to Reader. When I selected "Help | Manuals(in pdf) | An Introduction to R", it brought up the file in Acrobat instead of Reader. After making sure the default associations were correctly

Hi all, Does anybody know of an editor that can do on Linux what Acrobat / Acrobat Pro can do on Mac/Windows? I have tried to use the PDF Import extension to the Open Office which appears barely functional - at least it is so slow as to be almost impractical. I have also tried pdfedit under Linux which seems to work fine but seems to have rather limited functionality. For instance, the capability

I need a way to convert files that I save with Firefox as a 'print to file' to 'pdf' I tried 'convert' but that rendered the text as graphics which grew the file and wasn't what I wanted. How would someone accomplish this - or can I just print to a PDF? Craig

Hi, this might be off topic because it's not a samba problem, but might be interesting for others too. We are running an older samba 3.0.24 working as domain controller (no DFS features). When opening a .pdf file with the Acrobat Reader X from a WinXP SP3 client (maschine is member of the domain) the Acrobat Reader X shows a "permission denied". We see the following in the samba

Dear All, Consider the following piece of code: pdf(file="figure.pdf", family="Palatino") plot(0,0,type='n', xlim=c(-20,20), ylim=c(0,2),xlab="",ylab="",axes=F) text(-1.4,1.168,expression(italic("The font looks different when this is seen with Acrobat Reader!")),xpd=T) dev.off() When viewing the produced figure.pdf with kpdf (on Linux),

Does anyone know of a good package that can convert a PDF into HTML? Cross-platform compatible is a plus, but I can live with Linux-only if it comes to that. -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

Dear all, I'm using R 2.12.0 on Windows 7 (32bits) I created a filled contour from the attached data using the following code: load('bug.RData') pdf('bug.pdf', width=14, height=7) filled.contour(o4$x, o4$y, o4$z, color=rainbow, xlim=c(4,18), ylim=c(0,35), zlim=c(14,36)) dev.off() If you look (I used acrobat reader 9.4) at the attached bug.pdf, you see an incomplete grid of

Hi, Without trying to print 1000000 points (see <http:// finzi.psych.upenn.edu/R/Rhelp02a/archive/42105.html>), I often print maps for which I do not want to loose too much of coastline detail, and/or plots with 1000-5000 points (yes, some are on top of each other, but using transparency (i.e. rgb colors with alpha information) this actually comes through as useful information.

A professor here at Vanderbilt sent me the following code. Each of the text strings should right justify against the center vertical bar, but because of font issues it doesn't. I understand that there are workarounds, but I was just curious if this was consistent across all platforms. On linux with R 2.7.1 and R-trunk (r46103), both acrobat reader 8 and kpdf render it incorrectly. How

People, I want to create a multi-page PDF doc and the pdf command works fine if I only use Portrait OR Landscape but how do I create a document that contains BOTH sorts of pages? Is it possible? - I couldn't find info about it. Thanks, Phil. -- Philip Rhoades GPO Box 3411 Sydney NSW 2001 Australia E-mail: phil at pricom.com.au

Hi there! I have found a trange problem with getting pairs()-plots to show properly in latex \subfloat environments. If i generate images of these plots with pdf() and include them in subfloats, they will either show up in grayscale, or sometimes the datapoints of the pairplots are missing. Mind you, the PDFs themselves are properly colored and look perfectly fine, both as pdf-image in acrobat

Dear r-bugs, When I create EPS files, they sometimes appear rotated in my LaTeX PDF document and sometimes they don't. Two examples: ## x1.eps is not rotated in LaTeX x <- seq(-1, 1, length=100) postscript("c:/x1.eps", height=3, width=4, horizontal=FALSE, onefile=FALSE, paper="special") plot(x, dnorm(x), type="l") dev.off() ## x2.eps is not

Hi- I''d like to load a PDF file into a page, in my controller: send_file "/path to/my.pdf", :disposition => "inline" However, instead of rendering inline, it asks to download the file. How can I display the contents without downloading? Thanks! --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the

I have a pdf file that I would like to parse into R: http://www.williams.edu/Registrar/geninfo/faculty.pdf For now, I open the file in Acrobat by hand, then save it "as text" and then use readLines(). That works fine but a) I am concerned that some information may be lost and b) I may be doing this a lot, so I would rather have R grab the information from the pdf file directly. So: is

So, I've been able to receive faxes quite reliably through teliax with g711 so far; I think I can live with it. For outbound faxing, I'd really like to get a service that lets me send faxes, but doesn't charge me a monthly fee (I don't send enough faxes to justify it). T.38 is a requirement; I need to know that a fax has gone through at the time I send it (store-and-forward,
