I did that and I do not see the photos populate on my screen... I composed it anyway to see what would happen and I got this error message:
Graphic is not found or is not processed properly: 02_CPS625_20230329_0036.jpg.
Check for file existence and that it is of the proper format.
uncaught exception: Error: In Resource(), no resource named 02_CPS625_20230329_0036

I've attached the newly collected file.

That didn't seem to work but it absolutely could be me. Would you mind taking a look at my file (I took some of the photos out so it wouldn't be so large) to see where it is that I am going wrong?
-
Thank you, I'll give this a try. Would I still use 2 pages (one landscape and one Portrait)? And would I put this rule in the OnRecordStart?

This forum has always been so helpful, I searched for my issue but couldn't find anything that worked. That said, I have 55 photos that need be able to be ordered by clients, some of the photos are portrait and some are landscape. Ideally, they would select which photo they would like to request in a drop-down without having to choose the orientation themselves. Is there a way on my end to have FusionPro determine what orientation should be displayed? I have two pages in my file, one is 12 x 18 and named "Landscape" and the other is 18 x 12 and named "Portrait". I am happy to attach my file if needed.

This is working like a charm. You are amazing! Thank you, I truly appreciate your help.

I'm not sure if this is possible or not but, I am trying to apply white background to text and have it shrink/grow depending on character count, not the text frame itself. I tried creating a table but that seems to fill the entire cell and not adjust to the text (I could be missing something there though as I've never done a table before). I've searched the forum for answers but can't seem to find exactly what I'm looking for. Any help would be appreciated. I've attached a PDF sample, if that helps explain what I'm trying to accomplish.

Thank you very much Dan. I haven't had a chance to try it but this definitely makes sense. As always, I appreciate your help!

Hi, maybe I'm over thinking this but hopefully someone can help me. I have 4 lines that are set to fit to a 2.25" x 1.25" text frame. I have it set to fit to the frame with 4 similar rules as per the name of the field. If the "name" is only 10 characters long but the "title" is 25 - 30 every field shrinks to the longest field. What I would like is for each field to fit based on it's own attributes. Basically, if I have the text set in the frame to 20 pt I prefer that only the longer information scales down and the 20 pt remains on anything that would fit at that point size. Hope this makes sense. I've attached my file to give a better idea. Thank you!

I had a feeling I was doing it "the long way". Thank you so much! I will be sure to use the rules you gave me and as few pages as possible from here on out. Once my customer sees this doesn't have to be separate templates, I'm sure it will open the door for more optionsGreat! Glad it's working now.Though I feel compelled to point out that this job can be accomplished in a much simpler way. If all you're doing is changing the font for some text, then you don't really need a whole new page for each font; you can just apply the font to the text with tags, like you do with the color:
This template is great! I do not use MarcomCentral or EFI Digital StoreFront. I have to upload my template to a website (WebCRD), run by Rochester Software Associates, I know I can either use Adobe Acrobat or InDesign, but I believe this is how I have to create it. As far as I'm concerned, you've already gone above and beyond and for that, I am extremely grateful.You do still need different pages for the different output page sizes, at least in a pure Creator workflow where you're composing locally in Acrobat. If you compose via FusionPro VDP Producer or Server, or via another application that utilizes FP Server, such as MarcomCentral or EFI Digital StoreFront, then you can have just a single page and resize it programmatically. We call this an Ad Resizing job. I can post an example of this too if you want. -
But, that extra space isn't really what's wrong with your function call. As I said, the problem is that you seem to be trying to trigger more than one page in a single call to FusionPro.Composition.SetBodyPageUsage, which doesn't work.
You are a Genius!! My apologies for not realizing that you solved my size/font switching issue already. The output should only be one page (which it is), I renamed my pages according to your previous stated assumptionLet's start with this: How many total pages are you trying to output in total for each record? Do you want to output just one page, which has a specific size and font? Or do you want to output two (facing) pages of the same size?
- 10 x 2 Gotham
- 10 x 2 Goudy
- 12 x 2 Gotham
- 12 x 2 Goudy
and changed my OnRecordStart rule to the rule you wrote.
[size=2][color=#666666]FusionPro.Composition.SetBodyPageUsage(Field("Size") + " " + Field("Font"), true);[/color][/size]That did it! I apologize for not seeing that sooner, I have no official training in JavaScript, building templates and writing code was a task given to me to figure out on my own. This is the most complex template I’ve built so far and I am very grateful for all your help!

When I'm testing the template, I can chose the size and the font I want but, if I change either of those options, I have to choose the other again as well in order for it to change.Can you be more specific about exactly what is not working, and how the actual results are different than the expected results?
I have my pages all set for "unused" and named as followed: Page1 is 10 x2, Page 2 is Goudy, Page 3 is 12 x 2, and Page 4 is GothamNamed them accordingly... how? What exactly are the page names?
I don't know why The "true" came through like that. I'm going to attempt to attach my template.I do see a few issues with the code, though:
FusionPro.Composition.SetBodyPageUsage("Gotham",tr ue)+("10 x 2",true);
Hopefully I do this right!

Thanks Dan, This worked perfectly! Some of this is over my head so I went with the option where you suggested setting 'White' as the initial condition as the default. There is one more rule in my template that works but doesn't seem to work well. I'm wondering if it's because I don't know the right way to simplify it like you do. My template calls for two different sizes (10x2 & 12x2) and two different fonts (Gotham and Goudy). I have 4 Pages and I have named them accordingly in the "Manage Pages/Page usage" section. Here is what I have in my "OnRecordStart" Callback Rule:
// Turn on pages as per size selected
ImageLocation=Field("Size");
switch(ImageLocation){
case "10 x 2":
FusionPro.Composition.SetBodyPageUsage("Gotham",true)+("10 x 2",true);
FusionPro.Composition.SetBodyPageUsage("Goudy",true)+("10 x 2",false);
break;
case "12 x 2":
FusionPro.Composition.SetBodyPageUsage("Goudy",true)+("12 x 2",true);
FusionPro.Composition.SetBodyPageUsage("Gotham",true)+("12 x 2",false);
break;
}
// ==========================
if(Field("Font")=="Goudy"){
FusionPro.Composition.SetBodyPageUsage("Goudy",true);
FusionPro.Composition.SetBodyPageUsage("Gotham",false);
} else {
FusionPro.Composition.SetBodyPageUsage("Gotham",true);
FusionPro.Composition.SetBodyPageUsage("Goudy",false);
}
Can you help me or would you like me to post this to the forum?
Thanks again for all your help!

Hi, I’m hoping someone can help me and that this is possible to do… I would like my font color to change based on the different backgrounds that can be chosen within my template. For instance, if the customer selects the blue background, the text should be white but if they pick the gold background, the text should be black and so on. I’ve tried this as a rule:
var color = '';
switch (Field("Background")){
case "2 x 12 Slideout_Blue":
fontColor = "White";
break;
case "2 x 12 Slideout_Gold":
fontColor = "Black";
break;
case "2 x 12 Slideout_Silver":
fontColor = "Black";
break;
case "2 x 12 Slideout_Walnut":
fontColor = "White";
break;
case "2 x 12 Slideout_White":
fontColor = "PANTONE 281 C";
break;
default:
color = "White";
}
return '<color name="' + color + '">' + ToUpper(Field("Name")) + '</color>';
But it doesn’t quite work, I’m hoping I’m on the right track though.
Thank you in advance.

Are you using the MarcomCentral Web-to-Print system? If so, please post your question to the MarcomCentral sub-forum. If you don't have access to that forum, please refer to this thread.
Or if you're not using MarcomCentral, please specify exactly what system you're using.
Please bear with me, I've never posted to the forum before and I tried to send you a private message yesterday (but I don't think that worked either). As per your suggestion, I requested permission to join the MarcomCentral sub-forum but I have not been approved yet.
I am working in FusionPro VDP Designer 9.0.3 building templates through Rochester Software Associate’s (RSA) Dynamics portal. Please advise me on where I should post my request for help.
Thank you for your assistance.

I have a very simple template in our Dynamics portal that uploads a picture to a portrait or landscape view. The preview comes up in the editing process and shows the picture after upload. But when you move to the final page for processing the order, the preview thumbnail doesn’t show the uploaded picture, it shows the thumbnail place holder. Please help, I cannot figure out what is causing this. Thank you in advance.

I appreciate your time and expertise! I will go back and make sure they are in the same directory. You have been amazingly helpful, I probably messed something up when I was trying to figure it out on my own.
