I want to create a tutorial inside a form showing how to use my database. I created it in PowerPoint and saved it as a PDF. I was wondering if it was possible to attach this PDF in my form. I also saved these slides as images on my computer, tried to attached them to a form and it exceeded 22 inches in lenght. is there any way around this any suggestions perhaps?
You could use javascript and other tools to show the pdf as a slideshow, I recommend that you use this tool its free and you can integrate your slides in a very easy way with javascript.

I have created a XML file using R-exams out of just a single exercise to be imported to Moodle. I would like to view it before uploading it in the Moodle question bank. I tried to open it with Firefox and I can see some code but not the output and a message appear saying that the XML file does not seem to have a style sheet associated to it. Is there a way to find this style sheet and to see how the question comes out just using a browser like Firefox or Chrome?
To emulate how the R/exams exercises are converted to HTML by exams2moodle() and how Moodle displays mathematical content, it's best to use
exams2html(..., converter = "pandoc-mathjax")
In recent versions of R/exams the resulting HTML file then automatically loads the MathJax Javascript that enables correct rendering of mathematical content in all modern browsers (including Google Chrome). See also http://www.R-exams.org/tutorials/math/ for some general advice about math in HTML.
To the best of my knowledge there is no tool that would quickly display Moodle XML files in such a way that you can easily assess them.
In our application we are using Itext Pdf 5.5.3 library.
We have checked with some of the pdfs in which Checkboxes displayed correctly(check/uncheck) .
However there are some pdf with RadioBoxes and do not display radiobutton(on/off) correctly.
I also use this link to validate pdfs and java code
String[] values = form.getAppearanceStates("Checkbox");
return null values.
Also tried Itext RUPS and found that pdf which are working shows Form Field Names in RUPS Form Tab. And PDfs which are not working do not display form fields.
I tried generating pdf from word document and it doesn't display form fields in RUP , neither I can check/uncheck checkbox in Adobe Acrobat Reader.
What could be the solution to display radiobutton with check on / off ?
Edit -
I had created sample web application to reproduce the issue.
Please setup attached web application and let me know the fix for the issue.

You have successfully discovered the difference between interactive PDF forms and "flat" PDF documents that look like a form to the human eye, but that aren't interactive forms.
To make the "flat" forms interactive, you need to open those flat documents in PDF editing software (e.g. Adobe Acrobat) and you need to add a form field manually.
You can ask Acrobat to guess where it should add fields, but Acrobat will be wrong in many cases for obvious reasons. You always need a human if you want it to be done correctly.
As for creating an interactive PDF from Word... Forget about it. Use OpenOffice or LibreOffice.
I'm working on Laravel 5 and I have a view where I displayed some graphs of Charts, the thing is that I want to offer to the user, the posibility of download this report in PDF, I'm currently generating reports with DomPDF, but as I was reading, DomPDF doesn't support this kind of graph, so, How can I do it? I was thinking in generate a printing view, but then how I dowload it automatically?
Also, I was thinking to send the generated images through a post petition and then attach it to the generated PDF, can I do that?
So I'm looking for a way to systematically access data from a website. This data is updated every 15 minutes or so, and is generated through a datamart system that makes custom reports following several input parameters: the desired date interval, the specific dataset.
All these parameters require me to click on some specific buttons; I was wondering if it would be possible to automate these click inputs using Matlab (or something else if need be), to retrieve the data and treat it automatically.
Thanks in advance!
I suggest you take a look at http://www.autohotkey.com/. This is a great tool which allows for the automatic clicking on any window (including a browser page) under Windows. It even will let you "search" your screen for pixel images and then click on those images. This would allow you to make a very small bmp file of the link you would like to click on, and then your script can search your page and click directly on the link.
As far as getting data into matlab I'm not exactly sure of the best way to do this, but you might consider saving the html of the page, and then parsing that from matlab.
I am stuck in a predicament whereby I hope someone can help me.
I am consuming a web service that returns a multi page PDF document as a Base64 payload. I want to be able to view the PDF on a page by page basis. For example I get the following string back in a long Base 64 encoded form within image tags :

I am not wanting to use a UIWebView to view the fax but a simple very basic PDF viewer with pagination. I know there are some libraries like Fast PDF Kit but that would not work because they show the logo and the license is a little pricey.
I am a PDF newbie so if someone can show by a small example I would truly appreciate that.
I'm not sure why you don't want to use UIWebView since it probably does everything you need. PDF parsing guide from Apple will show you how to implement this by hand:
