gdellaiera Posted March 28, 2017 Share Posted March 28, 2017 I am creating a 9 digit sticker that needs to be able to upload a csv for batch mode. I have created the file with a pick list for single record, but I am lost as to how to set it up for batch. Is this even a possibility?

gdellaiera Posted March 28, 2017 Author Share Posted March 28, 2017 I know how do set up the batch mode in DSF. What I do not know is how to set up the Fusion Pro template so that it has the capability to upload a csv Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A FusionPro template doesn't upload anything, it's used to compose output. Can you elaborate on exactly what workflow you're trying to implement?

gdellaiera Posted March 28, 2017 Author Share Posted March 28, 2017 I am creating a sticker label with 9 variable images (Numbers 0-9) in which I need the capability of uploading a csv with multiple different records. There is an image for every number which becomes the printed sticker. Originally I created it so there was a pick list & image gallery, but that does not allow me to import a file to to 100 different combinations. What I am wondering is if it is possible for the template to do this (sort of like uploading a multi page pdf)? I'm just lost as to how to go about this.

No. The HTML Form Definition is designed for what we call a "versioned" job, where the end user will enter information for a single (though possibly repeated) record of output, such as a business card. If you need to define and compose multiple records of data, such as from a multi-line CSV file, that's called a "VDP" job, and that same HTML Form workflow isn't appropriate. FusionPro itself has no concept of "uploading" a data file to a web-to-print system such as DSF; it relies on the web-to-print app to supply the data. So I have to again refer you to EFI Support to ask them how you would supply a multi-record data file to the DSF application, for a FusionPro VDP composition invoked by DSF.

gdellaiera Posted March 28, 2017 Author Share Posted March 28, 2017 Ok thanks. I did not think that it was possible to do both at the same time. I will contact EFI for a solution. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
