I have an RGB file that I want to leave as RGB, destined for a Fiery RIP on a Xerox digital press. If I drop the file on the Fiery, it prints as expected, but after FusionPro composition, the file is (apparently) converted to a CMYK colour space.
I simply can't find any options to control the PDF creation out of FusionPro with regards to colour space.
Is there a config file, or a discrete setting somewhere? I would just like it to go through unmanaged.
Thanks

Is this (Dan's last reply) still valid? I've changed my entries to match, and I'm returning the same error.
The only other aspect of the template that I'm curious about, is that it's in a formatted text resource.
Here's my converted javascript rule;
var Var1 = "Title";
var CaseSelection = "allcaps";
if(CaseSelection == "allcaps")
return ToUpper(TaggedDataField(Var1));
if(CaseSelection == "smallcaps")
return "<smallcap>" + TaggedDataField(Var1) + "</smallcap>";
if(CaseSelection == "propercase")
return ToTitleCase(TaggedDataField(Var1));
if(CaseSelection == "lowercase")
return ToLower(TaggedDataField(Var1));
For now, I've disabled the function and asked the client to enter UPPER. I'd prefer to automate the solution.
Many thanks.

The CSS trick is useful; I'll make use of that.
It's the group pricing visibility option that I missed... This satisfies my needs. I'm still learning the differences in the Admin portal.
Much appreciated; thank you both!

It's set for drop-down. The records are active.
The only products where the grid is displayed are those with pricing. Those with pricing $0.00 hide themselves (until now).
I don't want to say "maybe it's a bug", but... Maybe it's a bug. This behaviour is new since switching to Admin.
Thanks for your attention.

After switching to the new Admin portal, when I build store products with quantities but no pricing, the pricing grid shows up. Moreover, it shows only the first entry. If I add pricing, the whole grid shows up as expected.
I have many old products that hide the grid when no pricing is included, but I can't trick MC into hiding the grid entirely when building new products in the Admin portal.
Am I missing something?
Thanks for any help.

This is familiar... Excel sometimes contains additional records where they appear to be blank. Copy/paste the data to a new workbook, or otherwise ensure that everything beyond the required records is deleted.
I've experienced this on multiple VDP platforms; it's not restricted to Fusion. It's entirely an Excel thing.

Great, thank you!

I've installed the latest; 9.3.6. InDesign CC 2014 returns an error that it's not a valid plug-in. Is there a work-around?

This is great stuff! I will be exploring your advice over the next few days.
Thank you both!

Hello, and thanks for reading. I'll try to be concise.
In trying to format text, typical on business cards. Many layouts format with a prefix followed by the number, and include a desired space in between. Here's an example with three spaces between.
T 604.323.2323
C 604.232.3232
F 604.323.2323
Here's my code;
if (Field("Tell") == "")
return "";
else
return 'T '+Rule("TelFor");
Here are my questions;
- Fusion seems to honour just one space. If I put three ('T '), only one is applied (even in this HTML formatting). How can I apply more, or tabs?
- Characters have different kerning values. Even in my example above, the 604 do not line up, because of these values. How do I align my phone numbers?
- Is there a method to affect tracking for the entire phone number, so they align overall?
I use various cheats, but this has to be a common issue... Perhaps I missed a simple solution somewhere?
Any advice would be much appreciated.
Thanks
Mike

Thanks for the reply. I've tried all sorts of options, including this. Here's my output config;
