[Preview/output chosen design (prev & output are different pages)]

I am building a template for pocket folders which will be up on MCC.

 

There are five pocket folder design options the client can choose.

 

I have two pages for each design:

1.a preview of the pocket folder (does not show the pockets)

2. the print ready file (includes the pocket flaps)

 

My page naming convention is Prev for the Preview pages and Pkt for the print ready pages. The five design option pages (1-5) are in order in the template and are named as follows:

 

"Prev1", "Pkt1" for Body 1 and Body 2

"Prev2", "Pkt2" for Body 3 and Body 4

"Prev3", "Pkt3" for Body 5 and Body 6

"Prev4", "Pkt4" for Body 7 and Body 8

"Prev5", "Pkt5" for Body 9 and Body 10

 

I have a field to designate the design choice "Design" which will be used to create a text dropdown in MCC with the following values:

 

"Des1"

"Des2"

"Des3"

"Des4"

"Des5"

 

I've set the Page Usage of all pages to "Unused" and tried several to create an OnRecordStart rule that based on the "Design" field will:

 

preview the the corresponding Preview page on MCC

and then

compose the corresponding print ready page.

 

So far, I've not gotten it.

 

Thanks in advance for help and suggestions.

[Conditional color based on image choice]

I'm trying to write a rule that will assign specific values to variables based on the choice of another. Input and assistance here will be appreciated!

 

I have three variables:

 

1. "ColorScheme" - the design name for the combination of background and text

2. "Background" - a pdf image

3. "TextColor" - Pantone colors

 

Based on the choice of a color scheme I need to assign:

 

 

1. a background image

 

and

 

2. specific colors to SOME of the text within a variable

 

 

Any guidance to get this done most effectively would be great.

 

This will end up on MCC.

 

thanks

Dan:

 

Thanks for your reply. Yes I should have thought to also post image of the desired result. File name: HLS_BERKMAN_BC_1014-centered.jpg

 

I've also uploaded the template (which had been approved prior to the centering request) in a collect zip named: COLLECT_for_PTI_forum.zip

 

I will gladly provide additional information if it helps.

 

Thanks again.

[text placement by number of lines]

Hello:

 

I am new to the FusionPro forum. Hope all are well.

 

I'm looking for help setting up text frames for business cards where the number of lines of text will determine the placement of the text.

 

In one instance, a business card, there are up to three flush left lines of text and up to four lines of flush right text. However the right column of flush right text can go to five lines in which case the fifth line must be centered below the left and right columns of text, both of which then have to moved up to fit the fifth line centered below.

 

I've attached an image of the "before" to show what I need to fix.

 

Hopefully this is enough information to get some help.

 

Have a terrific weekend.
