  1. I can't seem to get my head around this - I've tried so many variations, I'm not sure which one to send as a starting sample. It seems basic: I need to have a rule that validates that a date (from a data field) is at least 5 days or more than today and does not count Sat or Sun at all. If so, abort. Anyone doing anything like this? Any advise or direction would be very much appreciated!
  2. Thanks! I especially appreciate the condensed code.
  3. This seems SO simple, yet it doesn't work... if (Len(Trim(Field("FIRST NAME")) >= 2)) { return Field(Trim("FIRST NAME")); } else { return ("Hello"); } ...basically just wanting to have "Hello" if a First Name has less than 2 characters. The First Name as in the data is the result without regards to the length of characters. I've used this logic in other programs, but can't seem to get the same result in FP. Any help would be appreciated - Thanks!
  4. Thank you Doug and Dan - I really appreciate your time! To all who use this as a reference later, this is good information.
  5. Dan - I did the tutorial test as you suggested - please see screenshot attached. When I copy and paste and use either Arial Unicode MS or HelveticaNeueLt Std (the font I need to use) I get the smart quotes. However when I type in quotes - see "Flight Search" - I don't, I get the straight quotes instead (chicken scratches). Which is what I get when data places in a variable. I'm working in Windows for both Indesign 5.5 and Acrobat 10, FusionPro 8.0.20. These fonts are new and clean and work in fine in other programs (such as XMPie). Support suggested I install the latest version of FP, I think I'm going to do that this morning to see if it the helps. However, still hoping you or someone else has a solution. I appreciate you hanging in there with me. Thanks, Debbie
  6. Dan / All - I have been unable to get smart quotes to work. These are new Adobe OTF fonts, working in Windows for both Indesign 5.5 and Acrobat 10, FusionPro 8. First in Indesign, I layed out as much as possible. The smart quotes are working in the variable text frames and appear in the initial pdf exported. Once in Acrobat, I edited in the Variable Text Editor - I have the following: «OfferDescription_RULE» We are pleased to offer «Bold_OrganizationName_RULE»a special discount of «Bold_DiscountText_RULE» your next trip! This exclusive Promotion Code may be used only once by «BookingEndDate_RULE», for travel beginning «TravelStartDate_RULE» through «TravelEndDate_RULE». ---- «OfferDescription_RULE» could have data such as October's Flight Offers. The «Bold_OrganizationName_RULE» could have data that has something like Macy's or Toys "R" Us. I only get the chicken scratches on compose. --- Other text in the Variable Text Editor that are not variable, loose the smart quotes on compose: Go to Site.com and click on “More Flight Search Options”. --- These will also be uploaded to MarcomCentral once I get to work offline. I just tried composing with unchecking "Limit processing to Latin-1 text" - issue continues. Thanks in advanced for any help you can offer. - Debbie
  7. I've read through many postings and had lengthy email chains with support. What is the bottom-line? Are smart quotes possible in FusionPro when composing in the Variable Text Frame for static or for variable text? (And then ultimately MarcomCentral). Thanks for ANY advice you have! Regards, Debbie
  8. Thanks so much for responding - this works perfectly - really appreciate the explanations.
  9. Hoping to get just a little more help with this one - I need to have the 90 days out only if an end date isn't provided. When I enter the below, validating says "BookingEndDate_RULE, line 8: SyntaxError: syntax error" (which is the else if)...can you see what I'm doing wrong? -------------------------------------- if (Field("BookingEndDate") = ""); { var myDate = DateFromString(Field("BookingStartDate")); var numDaysAhead = 90; myDate.setDate(myDate.getDate() + numDaysAhead); return FormatDate (myDate, "lm d, yyyy"); } else if (Field("BookingEndDate") != ""); { return FormatDate(Field ("BookingEndDate"), ("lm d, yyyy")) } -------------------------------------- Thanks so much!
  10. Hello - I need to return a date that is 90 after a given date - this is what I'm trying: var myDate = (Field("BookingStartDate")); var numDaysAhead = 90; myDate.setDate(myDate.getDate() + numDaysAhead); return FormatDate (myDate, "lm d, yyyy"); I used several other postings to arrive at this. Any idea why this doesn't validate? It doesn't like the beginning of line 3. Any help would be much appreciated! Thanks, Debbie
