  1. What I really want to do in your suggestion is replace the hard coded 3 and replace it with the corresponding number in the data field for that record. I have attached my file that I am working with and the data and fpi files. I have also attached a pdf of what I am trying to achieve (although I could not get the page size exactly correct with my driver you can get the idea). Thanks. 22418.pdf ColdWaterCreek.fpi 243218030_1716133_OP-zBR23Rm.txt 243218030_Bag Label[1].pdf
  2. maybe I am not describing what I want to do correctly. Let me try a different way. I have a single document that is 3.5x1.5 inches. I have text fields set up to show the data. In my data there is also a field for PrintQTY. My data falls into 4 categories and I have set my text fields to reflect that. PO, Job, SKU, and main body copy. Each type has a related print quantity designated. What I want to do is set up a rule so that the PO data prints a document the number of times indicated in the printqty field, then the Job data does the same thing, followed by SKU, then all of the first item however many times needed, and this keeps repeating until all the rows in my data have been printed. I can get them all to print in the order I want, but they only print one of each, not the quantity indicated in the printqty field.
  3. I have an imposition definition template set up in FusionPro Producer (API) 9.2.31 working on a mac using Adobe XI and CS6 that is set up with a 3.5 inch x 1.5 inch document imposed 3 wide by 11 high on a 12.5 inch x 17.5 inch sheet. What I am trying to do is output my data so that a field named "PrintQTY" informs FusionPro as to how many of each record to print across the template before switching to the next record. For example; if record "A" indicates a print quantity of "3", it will put three record "A"s across the top row; if record "B" has a print quantity of "7", it will then drop down a row, print 3 Record "B"s across, drop another row and print another 3 Record "B"s, drop another row and print the last record "B"; then move on the record "C" in the next field to the right of the last Record "B" and continue from there. I do now know how to write this rule. Any help?
