  1. How about creating a formatted text resource with "Il" using Mercury Text, then create a rule to pull that resource when [Name] = "Il"? I've done something similar when I needed special characters that didn't look good in the main body font.
  2. Thanks esmith. I think your solution of imposing after processing is the way to go for now. Hopefully a fix is in the works for using this great script with infinite stack imposition.
  3. I've used this script many times without an imposition, but am having trouble using an imposition template with an infinite stack. In the attached sample, I'm trying to get the "AK" version with 14 pages to print 3 times, the "GTC1" version with 23 pages to print 4 times, then the "SSG" version with 22 pages to print 5 times. However, it seems that since the "AK" version is first record, it composes the last 2 records with only 14 pages too and I get the error message: From another thread, I tried adding these lines in OnJobStart, but it sounds like that is uneccessary: So what's the trick for getting variable page PDFs to work with infinite stacking imposition?

  4. Did you figure out how to create this yet? Can't believe I spent all that time making those codes come out right and a week afterwards I see it posted here!
  5. That was it, Thomas, muchas gracias! I did have to correct just one little error from my original post where I had switch an 'x' coordinate to a 'y'. FindTextFrame("J (For only)").[color=red]y[/color] = 4025; Other than that, it worked great.
  6. So I got my text frames to move correctly thanks to this thread, but now I need to know how to move them based on a variable in a field, but to leave them "as is" otherwise. Here's my statement now that isn't working. I need to center 3 frames when a currency field has zero cents: if ((Right("Price-2for"),2) == "00"); return { FindTextFrame("K (Price n for)").x = 8776 FindTextFrame("K (Price n for)").y = 6235 FindTextFrame("J (Qty n for)").x = 3996 FindTextFrame("J (Qty n for)").y = 4053 FindTextFrame("J (For only)").x = 8374 FindTextFrame("J (For only)").x = 4025 }
  7. Lol. Not too good, Don. That's why I'm surfing this Forum and doing other's work! I was buried this time last year with you leaving and now, nothing. Got something in the works though, so hopefully I won't be suffering too much longer. Hope the grass is greener where you're at!
  8. Sorry, but I probably can't help on those two either, but I do have 2 suggestions. Delete "2D Barcode for 5.8 Fusion Pro" from the active script, it's just a header I think. Second, make sure "Treat Return Strings as Text" is checked. Doing this produced a 2D barcode for me, but I'm not sure it's filled with the info you want in it. I assume you're trying to have a 2D show up on all your inserted variable pages? That would be interesting to know how to create that. Would it be easier to just have a formatted (000001) sequence number in your data? At least I learned a good tip from DCurry, thanks!
  9. INGuser, A long time ago, I had the same problems as you're having. I think I've found the fixes to your problem: You need to name the fields in your data "Doc1", "Doc2", "Doc3", etc. That's what the script is looking for. In the text box on your variable page (p. 19), you need to insert the rule, "«PDF Graphic Insertion Rule»" and set the size of the text box to slightly larger than page size: W: 8.7" H: 11.2" Finally, open up the Composition Settings command and select the last tab "Advanced". Under Search Path, you need to tell FP where your PDFs are located. I just copy/paste the pathway. Hit save. I was able to get it to run using these fixes, so hopefully you can too. I'm attaching back your fixed files sans the PDF inserts. Good luck! Jeff Fixed.zip
