Generating Section 508 Compliant PDFs from CF

2014-06-25 Thread Scott Stewart

Has anyone implemented a solution that will allow ColdFusion 9, 10, 11 to
generate a PDF that is fully section 508 compliant? Including tagging...

Thanks in advance

I have always thought that CF should have the full PDF API available.
I haven't seen the ability to automatically generate and fully tag PDFs for ADA 
compliance, but I hope someone has a positive answer.

CF 11

2014-06-25 Thread Rob Voyle

Hi Folks
Wondering what the advantages of CF11 over CF10

The one thing I am looking for is ease of doing the updates and patches, which 
is 
pretty miserable in CF9

Your needs are almost surely different from ours...however...in case it's
helpful, my boss asked me to order these from most important (for us)
through least important (for us):

1. Security enhancements - Limit the attack surface by restricting default
remote access to the admin portal. Control access to resources by creating
multiple sandboxes across directories. Make your server more secure against
click-jacking and cross-site scripting using new functions to sanitize user
input.
2. New Client-side database integration - Work more productively by not
having to attach any callback handler when accessing databases. Now take
advantage of the powerful CFQUERY tag to access client-side databases
directly using SQL.
3. Language enhancements - Maintain and modify existing code faster and
more easily with member functions on ColdFusion objects. Leverage enhanced
JSON data conversion to identify the data types of JSON objects. Use the
new QueryExecute function to easily handle database queries from within
CFSCRIPT.
4. Tight integration with Adobe ColdFusion Builder - Enhance your
development experience with integrated server management and expanded
functionality through CFML extensions using ColdFusion Builder. Accelerate
the development of mobile applications using features such as device
detection, on-device debugging, multidevice inspection, and more.
5. Web services support - Publish and access web services with less code
using the revamped engine that supports the WSDL 2.0 specification, SOAP
1.2, and document literal wrapped style.
6. Dynamic and interactive HTML5 charting - Implement a large repository of
HTML5 charts using the built-in CFCHART tag. Easily create dynamic,
data-heavy charts with an all-new server-side charting engine. Show data in
a wide range of interactive formats with features such as zoom-in to help
consumers get a granular view of information.
7. Rich Ajax UI controls - Build more compelling and intuitive applications
with a broad set of Ajax controls via CFML tags and attributes. Easily bind
client-side Ajax applications to ColdFusion components on the server.
8. Improved Microsoft Office file interoperability - Leverage additional
functionalities, such as page break and auto filter, to manage spreadsheets
better. Generate PDF files from PowerPoint and Word files. Produce HTML or
SWF files from PowerPoint presentations. Take advantage of several
performance enhancements to work faster with Microsoft Office 2010 files.
9. New Full CFSCRIPT support - Work more productively with complete
scripting support for CFSCRIPT. Develop applications faster and more easily
by accessing every ColdFusion 11 functionality using CFSCRIPT.
10. New Custom tag framework for UI development - Extend the functionality
of ColdFusion by using the popular server-side custom tag framework on the
client side. Reuse and distribute UI components to speed up development and
reduce the testing effort.
11. New CFML-based mobile app development - Get a head start in the
fast-growing market for mobile apps. Leverage your existing CFML skills to
develop mobile apps and use built-in integration with Adobe PhoneGap Build
to easily and quickly deliver them as installed apps that run on iOS and
Android devices.
12. New On-device debugging - Use unique on-device debugging capabilities
to identify and fix errors in installed apps as well as browser-based
mobile applications. Remotely connect a mobile device to ColdFusion Builder
and simulate actual usage on the device by stepping through application
code.
13. New Multidevice inspection - Inspect the look and feel of both mobile
and web applications on multiple devices using the built-in Weinre server.
Modify the properties of elements using ColdFusion Builder, and see the
changes take effect in real time in the mobile app.
14. New Device detection - Easily identify the type of device, its
dimensions, group name, description, orientation, and features at runtime
without needing any plug-ins. Leverage this information to deliver
differentiated content for the device and enhance the user experience.
15. New Native device APIs - Use ColdFusion device APIs to easily integrate
device functionalities, such as working with contacts, handling files,
retrieving geo-location information, recording and playing back audio and
video files, and accessing camera features, accelerometer, and storage.
16. New Enhanced server-side access - Work more productively by directly
creating instances of ColdFusion components on mobile applications. Easily
access server-side logic without creating a proxy or passing complex URLs.
17. New HTML to PDF conversion - Use the improved conversion engine from
Adobe to generate superior quality PDF files from HTML pages. The engine
parses the CSS and applies its settings to ensure that the content in the
PDF file appears and

I agree, especially since a large chunk of CF's market share is in the
federal sector. I've seen a couple of possible solutions involving Jasper
Reports, which we have, but I'd rather not go that route if I can avoid it,
