this works, any way to make it return check amount as a $XXX.XX format?

return ((Field ("issue_date")+"<t><t>"+Field("check_number")+"<t><t>"+Field("check_amount")+"<br>"+ Field ("issue_date2")+"<t><t>"+Field("check_number2")+"<t><t>"+Field("check_amount2")+"<br>" +Field ("issue_date3")+"<t><t>"+Field("check_number3")+"<t><t>"+Field("check_amount3")+"<br>" +Field ("issue_date4")+"<t><t>"+Field("check_number4")+"<t><t>"+Field("check_amount4")+"<br>" +Field ("issue_date5")+"<t><t>"+Field("check_number5")+"<t><t>"+Field("check_amount5")+"<br>" +Field ("issue_date6")+"<t><t>"+Field("check_number6")+"<t><t>"+Field("check_amount6")+"<br>" +Field ("issue_date7")+"<t><t>"+Field("check_number7")+"<t><t>"+Field("check_amount7")+"<br>" +Field ("issue_date8")+"<t><t>"+Field("check_number8")+"<t><t>"+Field("check_amount8")+"<br>" +Field ("issue_date9")+"<t><t>"+Field("check_number9")+"<t><t>"+Field("check_amount9")+"<br>" +Field ("issue_date10")+"<t><t>"+Field("check_number10")+"<t><t>"+Field("check_amount10")+"<br>" +Field ("issue_date11")+"<t><t>"+Field("check_number11")+"<t><t>"+Field("check_amount11"))) Suppress if empty doesn't work nor does suppress if empty variable tried it as CODE but that rule wants to consider TABS <t> as NON EMPTY... whats an easy solution?

We just got a DC616pro, works with EFI Fiery impose, but we don't really like it. Rather keep our workflow, single step... I am sure i can setup but would be great if someone already took the time.

That did it... Do i still need to define number of card/sets? FusionPro.Composition.composeAllRecords = false; FusionPro.Composition.endRecordNumber = 20; // Number of sets of cards One more question... instead of using a combined file (binder1.pdf) var card = CreateResource("Binder1.pdf", "graphic", true); is there a way to say Pull All PDF's files from a folder or the local directory instead of manually making a binder.pdf (ie. C:/TEST/) and have it repeat each record based on the leading numbers in the name of the file... This is what i get each time i get this order... http://forums.pti.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=1910&stc=1&d=1541025518 If we rename the files so each started with ***- where *** was the number of times it will repeat... Trying to automate this as much as possible... I know this is outside the norm, thanks for all your help so far. thanks,

OK lets try this again, need help in two places... 1st - how do i define the BACK/BODY2. How would i change this to output correctly. This outputs a cut/stack only... On Job Start FusionPro.Composition.composeAllRecords = false; FusionPro.Composition.endRecordNumber = 40; // Number of cards you have On record start:

Idea is to drop in multiple PDF files in a local folder (all pdfs are FRONT AND BACKS - all static), and have them print in a cut/stack order. Pulling Number of times to repeat from the rules. https://www.dropbox.com/s/ayt765s1yvbezhu/8sets101218Final.pdf?dl=0 This is how we use it currently, see files in drop box above. But the new setup is for a two page PDF (2 body pages), vs a single body page above.

Been using this setup for CUT and STACK for years, never needed to have front and back (DUPLEX)…. Now I do. Can’t seem to figure it out how to set the rule. ODDS are fronts Evens are backs had to upload to drop box as PDF is large... https://www.dropbox.com/s/8cbizhmv3l309j1/MM%20Birthday%20Samples.zip?dl=0

not sure i follow his explanation of a better way to copy fit. may be above my skill set. Do you have any samples of this? or better yet, can you walk me through it in my sample. if you can explain one sample ill get the rest.

Any way to speed up imposing? I can obtain the images to store locally, but they still seems to be taking a long time. Wonder if my rules are delaying the imposition speed... if that makes any sense? i am open to suggestions... if i can do more in excel before fusion i will. Just need some direction. Never done anything this extensive before.... beers, weed (if legal), or dinner who ever gives me a real solution... thanks, 8Day_Letter-PROOF-2 SETUP.zip

So have a client on the hook, around 50,000 postcards a month-- double sided variable text. Simple stuff happy birthday, QR code, coupon exp date, etc. Each grouping will be 400-2500 records to one LAYOUT. is there a way i can set each job as a call back, and run them STACKED. So we mark the data to the key code - so Version1 matches to data1 and so on (Variable placement will be different from Version 1 to Version X but the fields will all be the same data file). Looking to call the layouts (both static and variable based on the KEYCODE in the data file - thus getting me the best postage rates as well as making this easy to produce) f i can automate this over running 85 smaller jobs. Easier to keep track of 1 output file, then 85 output files.

Looking to always have all data fields output in proper case... can i set this in my globals, all all data fields...

That works... thanks... What if i wanted to make the same logic output a static image as well...

slip sheets would mess up the NCR of the job (its a collated sets)

Need an expression that will check if $inputrecord or number is a multiple of 50. if true then return "BookNumberCount" (which should go up for each booklet) Trying to do this without using stacks. So every 50 ouputsheets/records, i want to print BOOK# on each top sheet... already have background templates setup. My java is not strong. new to all this thanks for help... var certainNumber = 50; if ("$inputrecordnumber" % "certainNumber" === 0) { // directWinner is a multiple of certainNumber } then return "«$inputrecordnumber»" ***OR the correct name for OUTPUT COMPOSED SHEET****

Simple NCR. 2UP (stacked and numbered). Normally i would just print each output page 2 or 3 times depending on the NCR. But this job is color pg1, B&W pg2. My digital press will adjust if black detection is on, but I never had to output 2 pages of each. will a rule, repeat each page and record, or do i need to start with 2 pages in my original pdf.

thank you so much

so i add all the fields for my mail merge envelope but some of the addresses are going to have a space in between the name line and the address line because only some of the addresses have business names so is there a way to eliminate that space on the addresses that don't have business names.. i really would appreciate someones helps if anyone knows how to do it first person that gets back to me with an answer will paypal $20

thanks works great, just doesn't show progress like the single sided version does... thanks again and pm me if you want LUNCH...

will do just need a quick explanation how to set Javascript Globals... msg me your email address...

last try here, i am out of time, need to print tomorrow.... here is the latest version. Tried all the variation i can think of, funny how singled sided is so easy and worked right away, but making it 2 sided is more difficult... Zip attached has all working files, PDF with template setup, "preview" works, and it uses the FPI correctly just seems to be missing the important question "how many times do you want to repeat each card (FRONT AND BACK)" Again the goal is to stack, so its faster to cut and box, then just Nup and having to separate tons of small piles.... Guess its time for a bounty... Working Solution gets LUNCH (well $20 gift card or paypal)... https://www.dropbox.com/s/8om5r4gd59q60pa/CK%20CUT%20AND%20STACK%20V4.zip?dl=0

sorry about that... not sure why its not working.... here is everything all files, the error log from the last attempt... appreciate your help with this.... https://www.dropbox.com/s/hbd4vdnk7ao84om/CK%20CUT%20AND%20STACK%20V3.zip?dl=0

still getting out of memory... attached is the last revision... seems to be stuck in some type of loop.... thanks again, https://www.dropbox.com/s/reinu94jzjb1y8s/CK%20CUT%20AND%20STACK%20V2.zip?dl=0

where do i define number of time each set (card) repeats?

How to I define a single sided card to a two sided card... as i need the cards to DUPLEX TUMBLE... which makes it not work correctly... The FPI is setup right its 5 sets of cards but 2 sides to each card. I tired to add a second page but then i have to split the fronts/backs...any easy way... https://www.dropbox.com/s/9qrgdni3fbkx0pk/CK%20CUT%20AND%20STACK.zip?dl=0
