Acrobat Services API

I want to open PDF files in sharepoint to open in the app by default. We installed the Adobe Acrobat add-in for Microsoft, but it opens in the browser.  I want to change the default setting behavior to always open in the "app". The SharePoint site setting is enabled for applications to open in the app/ instead of online. any thoughts?  

I have a use case that requires generating bills of sale for customers. My current PDF template includes form fields, which I’m attempting to utilize for programmatically creating PDFs from a web client. The goal is to generate bills of sale in PDF format with customer data entered through the web client. I'm experimenting with the PDF Services API except I can't seem to find how to download the modified PDF. Here are the steps I'm currently doing: PDF Services AuthenticationGetting Signed URIUploading PDF Asset (bill of sale template)Modifying uploaded PDF template using "Import PDF Form Data" methodAll of this is returning a HTTP status code of 200 but I just can't figure out how to download the modified PDF now.

Hi, I've been working with the Adobe PDF Services API and ran in a peculiar clash of terms.  We are trying to cross reference the contents of the structuredData.json of the Extract API and the AutoTag xlsx report.  They both contain ObjectID's.  However, they do not refer to the same objects or even overlap in some cases. I have an autotag report with a list of figures.  The ObjectID's of the figures don't even exist in the structuredData.json. What is the difference between these two ways of looking at the content of the PDF we are manipulating vis the Services API. Much thanks! Gabriel

https://www.adobe.com/devnet-docs/dcsdk_io/viewSDK/howtos_comments.html#annotation-schema `selector.boundingBox` and `selector.quadPoints` - What do they mean, what is the point of reference? When I use them inawait apis.gotoLocation(pageNumber, 0, here); I can't hit with an annotation position.I want the top edge of the viewer to be flush with the top of the annotation. How to do it?

I'm using the Adobe PDF Embed API to preview PDF documents in our LMS. We need to provide only the search option to the users.  Is it possible to hide or remove the Adobe ICon while previewing the PDF document? I want to remove the circled adobe icon. 

I use a viewer to display multiple files, and after opening around 50 files i have a huge ram usage due to cached blobs, is there a way to manually clear those stored blobs? Thanks

Hello everyone I'm creating a flow with PowerAutomate and PDF service API to extract data automatically from PDF files. The problem is that I need to extract the first page only and not all the document (which contain 15 pages). The other problem I'm facing is that the output of PDF service API is a Excel file but I would like to compile the data in Excel online data base.  Thanks for your help 

Hi All - I am trying to understand if Captivate, either Classic or New can create a word document that has the images and the steps taken (mouse clicks) between each of the images. When I use the Export to word, all I get are columns of data (see below screenshot), but no images of the screen. The data is not particularly helpful either.

Hi, I was trying to extract the document attached to this question, when I try to extract it with Adobe APIs I just get a collection of images, one for each page.I think this has to do with document parsing (probably parsed as a svg) and I don't know how to solve it! Can sombody help me?Thanks,Giovanni

This is a journal document for EU trademarks. The parsed results often show the results shown in the figure below.Is there any way to optimize it? 

Dear Team/Support,I hope you are doing well.We are currently developing a Document Management and Generation System that allows users to upload PDFs, Word documents, and images. As part of our solution, we require OCR functionality to extract text while preserving the original document’s formatting, including images, styles, page layouts, and structures.Could you please advise if you offer any API or service that can help us achieve this requirement? We are looking for a solution that ensures high accuracy in OCR while maintaining the document's integrity.Looking forward to your response.Best regards,Adnan Ali

I'm trying to use the combine pdf function but I always get this:{"error":{"code":"UNAUTHORIZED","message":"Not authorised to perform the operation."}}Before the final "operation/combinepdf " request I succesfully get an access token, get two urls with "assets" and upload the two files I need to combine.Also tried to get download uri with "/assets/{assetId}" and it works correctly.Anyone can help me?

Thank you for viewing this post.We have disabled the download and print buttons to prevent the users. { showDownloadPDF: false, showPrintPDF: false, } The problem is when the users `Ctrl+P` or `Cmd+P`,the following prompt will appear. This gives the user a direct access to download the document. Before this appear, around a month or so, the "Print" keyboard shortcut calls for the browser print. On which we could somehow prevent the content to be shown. Any clue could help. 🙂  

Hi everyone,I'm experiencing an issue with the Adobe PDF Embed API regarding the freehand drawing (shape annotation) stroke width. In our React application, we want the freehand drawing tool to render with a line thickness of 2pt instead of the default 3pt.According to the documentation, we should be able to set the stroke width by passing the strokeWidth property to the startAnnotationMode API, like this:annotationManager.startAnnotationMode("shape", {defaultColor: "#0a23f5",cursor: "crosshair",strokeWidth: 2, // Expected to set the line thickness to 2pt});We’ve tried several approaches:Direct Call After previewFile:Immediately after calling previewFile, we obtain the annotation manager and call startAnnotationMode with strokeWidth: 2. However, the freehand drawing still uses a 3pt stroke.Monkey-Patching/Overriding:We attempted to override the startAnnotationMode method (both on the AdobeDC.View prototype and on the annotation manager instance) to force the strokeWidth to 2, but it re

We are experiencing some outages with the APIs, out from 10 conversions from word to PDF 8 get converted successfully and 2 failed. We found a repetative error in the log: "Too Many Requests" (HTTP 429) : 09:57:20.520 [ajp-nio-0:0:0:0:0:0:0:0-8019-exec-5] INFO  c.a.p.o.internal.PDFServicesHelper:188 - Started submitting Document Merge Operation job 09:57:20.520 [ajp-nio-0:0:0:0:0:0:0:0-8019-exec-5] DEBUG c.a.p.o.internal.PDFServicesHelper:189 - Submitting Document Merge Operation job with request id 283b2ad4-6def-4164-b8d2-8af4836515ae 09:57:20.521 [ajp-nio-0:0:0:0:0:0:0:0-8019-exec-5] INFO  c.a.p.o.internal.PDFServicesHelper:204 - Finished submitting Document Merge Operation job 09:57:20.521 [ajp-nio-0:0:0:0:0:0:0:0-8019-exec-5] DEBUG c.a.p.o.i.a.ServicePrincipalAuthenticator:63 - Session Token is valid, won't be refreshed. 09:57:20.522 [ajp-nio-0:0:0:0:0:0:0:0-8019-exec-5] DEBUG c.a.p.o.internal.http.ApacheHttpUtil:47 - Creating Apache HTT

We used Adobe PDF Generation API on a few smaller projects and to be honest, the lack of documentation and support created significant challenges.  We are looking at a potential extremely large project for using PDF Generation API to create documents from Word templates.  Before I greenlight this project, I just want to get an understanding.  Is this a "real" product that Adobe is still actively developing and supporting?  Questions/issues that I reported way back in 2022 (about the same time the Word add-in was last updated BTW) have still yet to be addressed by the product team.  If this is just a hobby or PoC please let me know and we can investigate other options.  If this is a legitimate product, can we finally get some ACTUAL documentation on this?  Also, the fact that you still run into a "daily limit" of testing our Word Add-in generation is beyond ubsurd.  The reason I have to test EVERY SINGLE FIELD is because who knows if you need a `

Hi team,we are currently testing the Extract API and would like to know how we can display the data from the structuredData.json in the pdf again? The aim would be to embed the data in the PDF in such a way that it is displayed as in the DC Visualiser (Adobe PDF Visualizer For Extract API). We tried different ways via Python, but it didn't work. How do we get the data from the json into the pdf?

I am experiencing an import error in python from the pdfservices_sdk package.  I am a first time user of the Adobe developer tools I have gotten my developer credetials, installed pdsservices_sdk and confirmed successful install using pip show command. I tried searching this forum for an answer, but could not find one.  This is the first line of my python code: from adobe_pdf_services import PDFApi,  ExtractPDFParams,  ExtractElementType This isi the error message I'm getting:Error Message: ImportError: cannot import name 'PDFApi' from 'pdfservices_sdk' (unknown location) I'm suspecting that I must have missed somethign on setup of the environment.  I would appreciate any guidance on this.  Thanks, Ben
