copypickup Posted October 23, 2012 Share Posted October 23, 2012 Hi everyone. I basically just purchased Fusion Pro and my first job is giving me trouble. I found through searching the ability to do 2-part carbonless forms using the following javascript: FusionPro.Composition.repeatRecordCount = 2; The issue is that the forms will be run 2-up. Each form will be cut to 8.5x5.5. I have one form created as the base at 8.5x5.5 and I can get it to number it properly, but when running them 2-up from Acrobat the correct numbers will not fall behind each other for the carbonless. Can anyone provide a suggestion? Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan Korn Posted October 23, 2012 Share Posted October 23, 2012 I'm not sure I understand what you mean by, "the correct numbers will not fall behind each other for the carbonless." Can you give a specific example? Are you trying have the same number show up on each of the 2 parts, or a different number on each part?

copypickup Posted October 23, 2012 Author Share Posted October 23, 2012 I'm running one ream of 2-part carbonless forms. Each set of two part will have two forms on it. Therefore I need the numbering to go like this: 4101, 4102, 4101, 4102, 4103, 4104, 4103, 4104 That way, when I do multiple pages per sheet from the PDF, pages 1 and 2 will have the same numbers, 3 and 4 will have the same numbers, etc. so the carbon copy will be the same invoice number as the one on the white copy ahead of it. I hope this explains it better. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can use the $inputrecordnumber variable in a text frame, or the FusionPro.Composition.inputRecordNumber property in a rule, and both will return the same record number for all repeats of the record. You can then use a 2-up FPI imposition template to output the pages 2-up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
