You will have to create an overflow page that will flow the additional pages. See the User Guide topic “ It’s got to go somewhere”. First, you need to create the Rule and do the following Add the multipage PDF as a graphic resource. Start out with a 2 page blank pdf . Draw TEXT frame on each page as needed. Select FusionPro>>Manage Pages>>Page Usage Highlight page 2. Click Edit Specify "Type" as "Overflow" Give it name "Back_Page" Click "Ok", "Ok" Go to the first page of the template. Click on the text frame to bring up the "Text Frame" palette Click on "Overflow". Check the option for "Overflow Text To New Pages" Under "New Left Page", click the drop arrow for "Back_Page" Leave New Right Page as "None". Under "Add Pages", select "As Few Added As Possible" Click "Ok" Go into the Variable Text Editor, and insert the Rule name Go to the second page in the template Click on the text frame to bring up the "Text Frame" palette In the lower left, check the box for "OverFlow To" Click “Create Rules>>>New(Text)>>>Empty”. Check the box for “Treat Return Strings As Tagged Text”. Here is the Rule: var pathName = "..\\RESOURCES\\"; var FullResourcePath = pathName + Field("Store Message"); //change to match your data file field var x = new FusionProResource(FullResourcePath, "graphic", 1); if (!x.exists) ReportError("Graphic not found: " + FullResourcePath); var pdfString = ''; for (var pgnbr = 1; pgnbr <= x.countPages; pgnbr++) { x.pagenumber = pgnbr; pdfString += x.value + '<p>\n'; } Print("Result is: " + pdfString); return pdfString; Click “OK’, ‘OK’. Now if you “Preview”, you will only see the first page on the “Overflow” page. You will need compose a small record range to verify everything works correctly.

There were some fixes in the FP 9.3 version as it relates to the Drag-N-Drop Rule Wizard. Also the template may have been updated in this new version as well. Is there an error in the sample file output you are generating? Or is this from your own data?

return '<graphic file= "R_Hayward_sig.tif" height = ''14400" width = "10000">';

You can return a graphic image to a text frame if you want to control its alignment with the text in the frame. You can use an inline graphic tag. This can return an image to a text frame. Add all the graphic signature images as resources, i.e. jpg, png, tiff…etc.. Make a text Rule. Click “Create Rules>>>New(Text)>>>Empty Rule”. Check the box for “Treat Return Stings As Tagged Text”. Enter this script and modify as needed: return ‘<graphic file=\"'+ Field("signature") + ".tif\" height = “14400 width = “10000”>’; Usage: <graphic file="name" width="width" height="height"> More Info see: Tag Reference Guide The width is in points and is defined as hundredths of a point. If you need to specify the height too, you can also do that. There is information about this in the Tags Reference Guide on page 45 (Graphic Tag Inside Story Tag section) which also works in rules too and does not need to be in a story tag (for tagged data). Now insert this Rule from the “Variable” drop box where the signature will appear.

Why not use the XML Rule template, i.e. 128 B Barcode. Then in the frame where the barcode will appear, insert this rule from the "Variable" drop box. No need to apply the font as it is specified in the Rule. Does this work?
