Working with themplates

Recommended Posts

Sorry, I think I posted it in the wrong spot before so there may be a duplicate.

 

I have postcards that require a picture and the agents name to go into certain areas. But the areas for each postcard is in a different spot. I believe I have a body setup correctly and a template page for each version of the postcard with the picture and name. My problem is that I am not understanding the rule that I need to make it work properly. I need to used the "TEMPLATENAME" in the csv file.

 

Can somebody help me understand the rule that needs to be created. I have attached a test file with all the resources needed. I will end up adding another 10-12 more version of the postcard that have the information in different spots.

 

Thanks

Damien

I think you're trying to use repeatable templates. Which might be beneficial in this project, but I would do them in reverse, with the address block being the repeatable template, and create a new page for each version of the postcard.

 

Simply add pages and name them the version code, and set the page to unused. Create a OnRecordStart rule to activate the necessary page

 

FusionPro.Composition.SetBodyPageUsage(Field("TEMPLATENAME"), true);

 

Create a new template page with the Addressing information, and return it with a text rule

return new FPRepeatableComponent('address');

 

See attached modified PDF. If you wanted to keep down on your way you could just modify the "addressBlockAndIndicia" rule to your liking to return the template page you need.
