  1. Yep, it was a font issue. I forgot to reload the fonts under the Server menu...duh!
  2. Need a QR code in a text box. Used the Created QR text template. I'm not getting a QR code in my text box. Am I not understanding this correctly? http://download.gsghome.com/QR_ScreenShot.png
  3. Thanks. The Try and Catch is working for me perfectly.
  4. I get the error "uncaught exception: Error: In Field(), no field named Order Number" I'm trying to get the first record of the data to output if the input data file ends with ".txt" otherwise to output all the records which will come as an xls file. The xls file will have the data column header "Order Number" //Set page usage FusionPro.Composition.SetBodyPageUsage("1Title", false); FusionPro.Composition.SetBodyPageUsage("2Title", false); if(Field("Division")==""){ FusionPro.Composition.SetBodyPageUsage("1Title", true); }else FusionPro.Composition.SetBodyPageUsage("2Title", true); //Pull the job number & order number from the input data file name //Name needs to have the Job Number first e.g. 123456_86912.1.MyDataFile.txt //FusionPro.Composition.forcePreprocessing = true; set in onJobStart var jobNumber = GetFileName(PrimaryInputFile()); //Works in Preview, Validation & Composition mode unlike the old version that works in Composition only var orderNumber = GetFileName(PrimaryInputFile()); var interNumber = GetFileName(PrimaryInputFile()), myTest; jobNumber = jobNumber.match(/^\d+/); interNumber = interNumber.match(/\_[\d\.]+/); if (orderNumber.match(/\.txt/) == ".txt" && FusionPro.Composition.currentOutputFileNumber == 1){ FusionPro.Composition.startRecordNumber = 1; FusionPro.Composition.endRecordNumber = 1; FusionPro.Composition.OpenNewOutputFile(jobNumber + interNumber + Field("Name") + "." + FusionPro.Composition.outputFormatExtension); var myTest = "Fail"; } else { orderNumber = Field("Order Number"); } if (myTest != "Fail" && FieldChanged("Name")) { FusionPro.Composition.startRecordNumber = 1; FusionPro.Composition.endRecordNumber = FusionPro.Composition.totalRecordCount; FusionPro.Composition.OpenNewOutputFile(jobNumber + "_" + orderNumber + "." + Field("Name") + "." + FusionPro.Composition.outputFormatExtension); } Yeah, I know it's kinda sloppy and I attempt to clean everything up once I get it working....
  5. I get data files that sometimes have and ID. If this ID exists it will be what I need to use. However if no ID is in the data file it won't even have the field for the ID data. I then have to generate an ID based on the input file name. Is there a way to handle a field name not being present in the data file without throwing an error? I get these data files all the time and I have to link up to the new file and output a pdf. Right now it looks like the only solution is to put the field name in the data, but that's a hassle with the frequency of doing this.
  6. Well I managed to get this error, but mine was caused by a Jedi-Mind-Trick. Just be careful if you use the Auto-complete rather than finding the function in the Building Blocks window and using the “Insert” button. While in the OnJobStart rule I just started typing “chunk….” in the code window & the rest of the function popped up, or so I thought. What I actually got was “chunksBreakStacks” that I amended “equals true” too (should have been FusionPro.Composition.chunksBreakStacks). I hit the verify button and it all checked good…Got this same error trying to output 1000 records at a time in an Infinite Stack 2 up impo. These are the type of errors that are very hard for me to find as I'm thinking my code is right. I think it took me a good hour to figure out what I had done wrong.
  7. I haven't adjusted the trim boxes. Tried the nudge and it didn't help. Is there anything to the Tutorials for the charts other than example files? I'm not following some of the info or where it's coming from in the Tutorial files eg. In the "Statement-OneFile-SimpleTable.pdf" Tutorial in the "Transaction Table" rule where/how is the Data Source "Multi-line records" coming from? Am I missing a following along vs just examples for these Tutorials?
  8. Attaching a screen shot of type that runs outside of the text box on the left. It is also outputting the pdf this way. Any idea what I need to do to fix this?
  9. Update fix: Read thru the thread about the Local fonts in the Acrobate Prefs...Made no difference for this issue. HOWEVER!, I did poke a bit more and in the FP Prefs there is an option for "Embed fonts for Preview". That fixed it! Just wanted to go ahead and post this as I didn't see it anywhere else and it was a bit hidden. Font Issues: My problem is I have an Adobe font active (Fieldwork Family, "Fieldwork Light Italic" specifically). When I look for this font in the FP Variable Text Editor the fonts name seems to have changed to "Fieldwork 03 Hum Light". When I select this font everything looks fine in the FP Variable Text Editor window. However, when I preview the job the font is no longer Italic. FYI, I do know where Adobe buries these fonts in the Library and have tried to pull the font and make it active using Font Book, but that didn't seem to help. Has anybody else been running across this issue? Mac: 11.6.4 FP 12.1.2 Acrobate: 2021.001.20142
  10. Definitely don't care for having to scroll on the left side for the different options. It's too easy to pass up what you're looking for. I thought the old layout with the different windows that sectioned off the options was much easier to work thru...
  11. Am I the only one that hates the new Imposer interface. I had kept using the old Imposer until upgrading my OS to Big Sur and now I'm stuck with the huge "Candy & Bubble Gum" icons in the newer version. Yuk!....and I've tried to warm up to it, but it is just Pee-yew and clunky!!! Sorry, just had to vent
  12. I'm getting this message when trying to output a job... "Failed to load font Museo-500" The font displays correctly using Preview Fusion Pro Font Usage reports the font is OK. I've stopped Suitcase by stopping the Type Core Engine. I've made Museo-500 active using Font Book and Verified the fonts. Rebooted. Same error and the font is not correct in the final output pdf.
