  1. Thanks to Lauren Nackoney! This template now works. It's a contact sheet for tifs jpgs & multipage pdfs. Thanks again Collect_V4.zip
  2. I have a template used for contact sheets. This is for internal use, so I can see all the "stuff" the client has provided. It uses Repeatable Component & external data to list/show client provided files. Now, I have multi-page PDFs. I would like to show all the pages of all the client supplied PDFs in the contact sheet. I've tried adapting some of your multi-page PDF scenarios, but I'm having trouble putting it all together. Thanks for the help. Collect.zip
  3. Thanks, I did but the rule there does not work. I have since figured it out. Now I have a different question along these lines. The client is putting a large amount of text in the template. I have created a rule that puts a watermark warning over the entered text. This way the client can see the warning AND still see how much the text needs to be modified.Palooza_Mailer_ForTESTING.zip I have attached the template here. I have 2 text boxes Large_Box & SmallBox. Either box should trigger the warning, but only one is working. Is there something in my rule that is preventing this from working? if (!Copyfit(new MagnifyAttributes("text", 100, 100, 4, 200))) { ReportWarning("Could not fit text in flow " + FusionPro.Composition.CurrentFlow.name); FindGraphicFrame("TextOverflowWarning").SetGraphic("TextOverflowWarning.pdf") } else FindGraphicFrame("TextOverflowWarning").SetGraphic("NullResource.pdf") }
  4. Is it possible to have 1 text box copyfit to 80% and have another text box copyfit to 30%? Something like: FindTextFrame("SmallBo***X") Copyfit(new MagnifyAttributes("text", 10, 500, 4, 200));
  5. That wold result in a bunch of PDFs. This project has clients going on line, creating several recipes & ordering a book of their recipes.
  6. Dan, Hi Is there a way to use this to create a reciepe book? Each reciepe would start with a "Header Page" (Photo, Description, Title), Next would be ingerdients, instructions etc. This would flow from the Header Page" to an overflow page. So far so good. I got 1 reciepe. Reciepe #2 needs to folow the same pattern. Use the Header Page, then overflow to the overflow page; then do the same with all the reciepes, making 1 book. Can you give me some pointers?
  7. We have also run into this. Grey scale tifs & jpgs; that have Dot Gain 20%; will compose as 4 color black. Clients are uploading these images. We can't control what is uploaded and when they upload a B&W image, they are expecting that in the output. The overall output is 4 color but the logos (which can have fine lines and or type), need to be printed in black only. Is there any way to fix this issue? either in the software or through the application of a rule in the specific graphic frame?
  8. Is there a way to color the text box with overflowing text Red?
  9. I was going over copy fit again. I thought it would be nice to give clients a warning & still let them see the text they've entered. So I'd use a watermark with info (got that to work). Then; to direct them to the specific box; I'd have it change color (I haven't got that to work). Here's the code: if (!Copyfit(new MagnifyAttributes("text", 100, 100, 4, 200))) { FindGraphicFrame("TextOverflowWarning").SetGraphic("TextOverflowWarning.pdf"); var warningColor = FindTextFrame(FusionPro.Composition.CurrentFlow.name); FindTextFrame("warningColor").fillColorName = "Red"; ReportWarning("Could not fit text in flow " + FusionPro.Composition.CurrentFlow.name); } This way clients can see how much "fixing" is necessary. I don't know if this is even possible. Please let me know. Thanks Mike G.
  10. I just upgraded to FusionPro 8.2.7 The search path in compose keeps changing from relative to absolute. When I do a collect I have to remember to open the confg & change the path back to relative. This is kind of a serious issue. There are 2 servers: One where we make templates & work on them the other server is the one the web sites use. After making & collecting a template, it is copied to the web server. It was easier when the relative path for images worked. It went like this: SearchPath=./TemplateLinks
  11. I tried composing a Digimaster file but was unable to distil it. Here's the distiller error: %%[ Error: invalidfileaccess; OffendingCommand: file ]%% Stack: (w) (00001.tif) 8 2575 2150 1492 %%[ Flushing: re…...
  12. Thanks Dan! You're right That's exactly what I was trying to do Thanks again!
  13. Ok I see how to get the error in the message file & in the text box. Now If the client's text is not copy fitted: e.g. if (!Copyfit(new MagnifyAttributes("text", 100, 100, 6, 72))) Is there a way to enlarge the error message in the text box? I've tried the CopyfitLine but both the staticpart, dynpart, are comming out at the same size. Thanks
