  1. On the composition options dialog box, under the Graphics tab, there is a setting to downsample graphics. If that is on, that might be the cause of your trouble. I would turn that off and see if it is better:
  2. Hi, yes, you can set the data file to "None" when you use the data definition wizard. If you have a recent version of FusionPro there is a rule called "Output Each Page as Its Own Record" which would then impose all the pages of the PDF as if they were separate records. Note that if there are many pages this might not be super fast.
  3. Hello Mark, sorry for the trouble. This is resolved in version 13.1.4. Please download that version for the fix.
  4. Hi Kumas, do you mean you are bringing in a formatted text resource? If so, you can make a new color (call it placeholder) and make the text you want to change the color called placeholder. You can then redefine the definition of placeholder in a rule. There is a form rule called Color from Data: The field can be a color definition such as 0 0 100 0 (for yellow) for 00FF00 (for green) Let us know if this helps.
  5. Maybe try: return Rule("insertbox").content + " " + Field("allocation_name_1"); You'll have to check the box in the rule to return tagged text. This also requires that your image is the right size. You can also do something like: return "<graphic resource="+resourcename+" width=7200> "+Field("allocation_name_1");
  6. I would expect the log message would say that either a font used in the job or a graphic used in the job is not present. What happens when you push the view log button? This question really should go to a different area. After this is resolved I'll move it.
  7. I would check the page size of the template page. Open the PDF file in Acrobat, and in the page tool, right click on the page and pick "Crop" - this will show each PDF box. Make sure they all are set to the size you want the output to be. Also, on the composition options dialog box, you can set the output page to be different than the PDF page. Check the custom page size on the imposition tab to see if that is set. Let us know if any of those is helpful.
  8. You can only compose 2 files on one input using the hot folder server system, not with FP Creator. You'll have to run it twice with different options.
  9. Hi Drew, The expectation is that the text would flow from one frame to the next and keep its formatting, kind of like wrapping around a picture. In order to accomplish what you need, you'll need to measure the text, adding content until it no longer fits in a frame, and then put that in as 2 paragraphs, one left aligned and one right aligned. If you're willing to send the job to FusionProSupport@marcom.com we can take a look at it.
  10. Glad that worked. I see in the spec that the FN: field for full name probably is what should be set. I'll look into whether we should change to that.
  11. Hello Odell, Looks like the name is supposed to be in the format of Lastname;Firstname. Therefore if you have the first name and last name in separate fields you could make a small rule like this: return Field("LastName") + ";" + Field("FirstName"); and call it FullNameForQRCode Then in your QR code GUI, put that function in the value for name, and I think you'll get what you want. Let me know if this works.
  12. So glad it helped and glad you are able to use the multi-line data feature and table rules.
  13. I'm not seeing the function ReturnNAIfEmpty called in either of these rules. For the first one, change this line: cell.Content = FormatGenericTagged(column.Format, data.GetFieldValue(r, column.Field)); to cell.Content = FormatGenericTagged(column.Format, ReturnNAIfEmpty(data.GetFieldValue(r, column.Field))); For the second one, I think this is just the format rule, not the data rule. I'd need to see the data rule.
  14. Can you post the whole rule? Or you could send the job to FusionProSupport@marcom.com and mention me (Douglas Cogan) in the message and I'll look at it. But if you're willing to post the rule here I can take a quick look, and might be faster (and help others.)
  15. You could make a function in JavaScriptGlobals like this: function ReturnNAIfEmpty(data) { if (Len(Trim(data)) == 0) return "N/A"; return data; } Then your line above could be changed to: result += ReturnNAIfEmpty(data.GetFieldValue(r, "name")) + " " + ReturnNAIfEmpty(data.GetFieldValue(r, "observation")) + " " + ReturnNAIfEmpty(data.GetFieldValue(r, "interpretation")) + "\n"; I think that will do what you want. The ReturnNAIfEmpty also handles the case where it is just a space in the data (that's the Trim part)
