I would like to know about the 'Copy' option/action available while viewing the documents attached in the email. I am referring to the default 'Email' app present on the iOS devices.
Following are more specific questions:
What does the Copy action copy? A complete document or part of it?
Where does the Paste action come in picture for the copied action in email viewer?
This is the screenshot:

I've been checking, searching and researching around this question about .PDF files for the past half an hour, but not finding any answer to that file type. However since you haven't asked about PDF files specifically, I'm putting my answer here.
The Copy option is not available for all file types attached to an email; for example a .zip file or even a .txt or .doc file does not have this option. Video files also come with a different option called Save Video.
So, this option seems to be available for image and PDF files only. If you copy an image file using that option, and then compose a new mail, you can simply paste it by long-tapping the email body section and select paste option.
And that will insert the copied image in-line into your mail which does not work with PDF files. You can copy them, there's no place to paste them. The same paste option wouldn't show up after copying a PDF file. I'd say this is another iOS bug/future-feature that Apple is trying to include in later versions, as file attachments have always been a problem even after almost 8 versions and 8 years.

I would like to download this link as PDF:

Unfortunately, this URL uses non standard format that I recognise and can manipulate.
Modifying it to something like
https://docs.google.com/presentation/d/2PACX-1vRouwj_3cYsmLrNNI3Uq5gv5-hYp_QFdeoan2GlxKgIZRSejozruAbVV0IMXBoPsINB7Jw92vJo2EAM/edit
doesn't work.
The Google Drive file ID should be 44 alphanumeric characters, but clearly this is 86 characters long.
Anyone can help with interpreting what format this is in please?
From this tutorial to generate a link to download a google slides must have this format:
https://docs.google.com/presentation/d/<FileID>/export/<format>
where <format> can be pptx or pdf.
This way, you can bypass Google Drive viewer or Google Slides editor and create direct download links to include in any web page. The main benefit is that you only need to maintain and host one presentation and then a direct link can be provided for anyone who need to download it in a different format.
Hope this information helps you.

I am currently developing an iOS app that can be used by different clients keeping pretty much the same interface for all of them. I would like to make this interface somehow “customisable” without having to change the storyboard for every client but I am not sure how to do so.
I thought that maybe I could have some sort of XML file that would contain the value of the UI elements, modify it and have the app read the value of the UI elements from it at compile time so the final app would contain the desired messages, images, etc.
To make the changes easier I also thought of some kind of “wizard” that would show the UI elements that can be changed, allow me to edit and write them to the xml file and after all that, compile the app from the command line (running a script from inside the wizard).
Is my idea viable? If so, how can I accomplish it or what tool are out there that might help me?
Is there another option that would help me accomplish this “customisable” interface?
Note: this is my first iOS app and is still being developed, I searched for related topics and info but found nothing useful so I am not sure if I am asking even possible to do for iOS or if it is out there under another "name".
Edit: by customisable I mean being able to change the text of the messages, the labels, the banner, the clients img logo, color of some elements and that kind of things.
Edit 2 what I would like is to develop a "wizard" that will modify an xml file and maybe replace some images in my app before it is compiled (that is my current idea). After that I would compile it and all the customisation would be done and the app would be ready for the client.
I would suggest that you look at targets http://www.itexico.com/blog/bid/99497/iOS-Mobile-Development-Using-Xcode-Targets-to-Reuse-the-Code
You could generate your XML file for each "Target", but only include the correct one for each target. Then when the app is compiled it should include all the relevant information. If you are producing multiple apps, you also need to consider that the app bundle Id would need to be different for each. Again Targets handles this

Should I include file extensions in my webpages url paths? [closed]

I've been trying to do some research for whether or not I should include file extensions in my url paths in my website (and whether or not it is detrimental to use relative urls).
Among some of the sites I have visited for this research are listed below:
http://css-tricks.com/snippets/htaccess/remove-file-extention-from-urls/
http://www.seo-theory.com/2011/11/30/how-do-pretty-urls-help-search-engine-optimization/
However, none of them have really answered my questions.
As for whether or not to include file extensions:
Assuming that all of the links are NOT broken, and I have constructed them properly, are there any downfalls to linking to other pages within my site and including the file extension? Originally, I thought I should include them just for specificity's sake, but now I know it doesn't make as pretty of a url.
Does this effect SEO greatly?
Should I go back and erase all .cshtml, .jpg, etc. from my url paths? Should I include this removal from the tags that link to my .js and .css external files?
If it matters, the context of this question is coming from a C#.net WebMatrix environment.
You can erase the .cshtml part of your urls if you like (I generally do) but you should not erase the extensions of images, style sheets, JavaScript files etc. The .cshtml files will be found by the Web Pages framework through its rudimentary routing system, but that only applies to .cshtml and .vbhtml files. If you remove the extensions from other types of file, they will not be found. And in any event, it would be pointless. It's not as if you want Google to index your .css file (which it doesn't).
As to whether removing the .cshtml extension will affect SEO - no, it will make no difference. If it did, you would easily be able to find a lot of advice to that effect.

Hey guys/girls,
I am in need of a script to turn my 100+ mobi files into epub.
I am currently using stanza (mac) to convert each file one by one.
I was wondering if someone could tell me how to do all of them at once. IE. A script that will do it for me. Time is not an issue. I just don't want to sit here and do it. I found a couple of sites that allow you to upload you file to them and they would give the epub format back to you. This is great except that they only allow one file at time as well.
Sorry if this was not clear. English is not my first language.
Thanks.
try calibre, it allows bulk conversion between many ebook formats and I used it successfully on some PDFs I wanted to read on my kobo.
I would also suggest using Calibre. You can BULK convert mobi files to epub files. Going from mobi to epub can usually be done with just the default conversion settings in Calibre (going from PDF to epub, on the other hand, typically requires a bunch of fiddling around with settings and regex in order to get it to look okay in epub). As you have mobi files it's likely you'll have them converted in no time.
Get Calibre from: http://calibre-ebook.com
Get help with Calibre from: the Calibre forum at http://www.mobileread.com (directly link: http://www.mobileread.com/forums/forumdisplay.php?f=166 )
The online manual is here: http://manual.calibre-ebook.com/
I think you'll find writing your own script is not necessary.

How can I convert an .rtf or .doc document to LaTeX? [closed]

Unfortunately, I can't use rtf2latex2e because it says that DropUNIX "no longer supports the classic environment". I barely know what I'm doing otherwise, besides dropping my .rtf file onto the DropUNIX program.
What else can I use? I don't mind which type of file it is I'm converting to LaTeX (.doc would also be OK, as long as it keeps my formatting).
I am using Mac OS 10.5.8.
Open Office can. Download it.
See the fmtconv question on the UK TeX FAQ, or, more specifically, the page on Converters from PC Textprocessors to LaTeX - Overview, which is specifically about this question and has many many examples. This general list of word-processor filters may help too.
UnRTF claims to be able to convert RTF to LaTeX as well as other formats (e.g. HTML). It claims to support HTML best, so perhaps RTF->HTML->LaTeX (e.g. with html2latex) might work better. I haven't actually tried any of this though.
Make your rtf/doc document into docx, and convert it using docx2tex.
You need the System.IO.Packaging .NET class to get this to work, which is no problem if you are using Windows, and is in principle supported by Mono if you are not. If anyone has success doing this with Mono, I'd like to hear of your experiences: this didn't work a year or so ago, but their implementation of that class has improved since then.
I say more about the utility in an answer at tex.stackexchange. Suffice it to say that I consider this by far the cleanest, most Latex-friendly option out there.
