  1. For me, this was a strange question ... A client just asked me what our pdf specification is to support payroll files? I checked the output of our fusionpro pdf, it says 1.5 I don't understand what pdf spec has to do with a payroll file, we are going to be composing to print. Does anybody compose checks or w2 forms that require special treatment? I did a search on the internet for pdf specifications for payroll files and didn't find anything that I thought related. Thanks
  2. I think the external data file option would work, I will give it a shot. Thanks, Jorge
  3. I want to compose all the single page records to one print file, all the two page records to another print file and all the three page records to yet another print file. Can this be done simultaneously? appending to each output stream as I go Currently I am bringing in multipage pdf's and checking the number of pages and skipping the record if it doesn't match up to a variable I have set but that means I have to compose the same data file three times to make sure I have covered all the possibilities for this job. Other option, can I set a varpages =1 to look for single pages, proceed through data file and create first print file, then increment varpages at last record run the process again without having to do it manually..? Thanks for your help
  4. Hi, I am using the latest version of VDP 9.0.3 on Mac 6.8 I found similar code to this through a search. I modified the if statement a little ... when I compose I get a single output file even though my fields are changing. Does anyone see what I have done wrong? ... I do not get any errors. if(FieldChanged(Field("Sack")) || FieldChanged(Field("Pack"))) { FusionPro.Composition.OpenNewOutputFile(Field("Sack") + "-" + Field("Pack") + "." + FusionPro.Composition.outputFormatExtension); }
  5. I wish I could have had a hand in designing the slip feature. We are a large mailer and need to throw a slip for both sack and pack, that is the tray and each unit within the tray. Also we burst the imposed sheet with slitter cutter creasers, the stacking feature is no good for us. Any ideas on how to just throw a slip without stacking? I have been thinking of just adding an extra number of blank pages that are unused and calculating modulus to determine how many to print to complete an imposed sheet along with enough extras to complete another fully imposed sheet as a separator but there seems like there should be a better way?
  6. Thanks ... and I suppose that the imposition will halt even if the page is not complete? Going to test that Thanks
  7. Trying to find an example for StartNewStack() or ?? to pull slip sheets based on changing of data field. I don't want to output a new file, I just want to pull some slip sheets and imposition will likely be used along with this. In the Rules Guide it refers me to User Guide, I don't see anything in User Guide! Thanks for your help
  8. How do you get the different sized page past the imposer. When I try I just get an error telling me it's the wrong page size and that it has been truncated. When I look, sure enough, it's gone but everything else is okay?
  9. I must have been looking at an older guide, one of them has this and the other doesn't lol!! That looks like it answers my question, I will give it a go, thanks.
  10. Thanks, I don't think imposing is an option, also we also need to impose n up to a press sheet. Rather not do it twice. Lets say I have 30 unique layouts (templates). Each of those templates contains variable graphics and text frames. I need to be able to select a layout and place it in one of the body page locations. Using the 11x17 example the first body page will have Location1 and Location2 and the second body page will have Location3, Location4. What I need to know is what would the java script rule look like to select a template and place it in one of the specific locations. Datafile will contain all the info.
  11. Is it possible to use Dynamic templates which serve as pages within a spread (or Body Page) and contain variable graphics and text? For example : My two body pages will be 11x17 and I need to select from a library of 8.5x11 page templates and insert them into the proper locations. This is not a repeating component though a template page could be used more than once in the spread. Thanks for any help or examples of this. I am using FP 7.2 but we have version 8 as well.
  12. Hello, Is there a way to insert slip pages based on the data. For example when printing mail pieces in sorted order, I would like to pull slip sheets when the tray number in data changes. Has anyone done this?
  13. Thanks, Im using the USPSIMBStandardMACps1 (Im on a Mac) and trying to figure the right fonts size but its for sure not greater than 12 pts. Iv almost got it ... The IDAutomation that comes with fusion pro would have to be used at like 8 points and then apply tracking ... actually I stopped trying at 10 pt so don't know if that would do it because the long bars was what the problem was.
  14. The Fusion Pro Font renders the Long Bars too large, they are out of spec. I have tried font size from 14 down to 11 pt. Im now able to see the USPS Std and Cmpct fonts using the FATD string with no rule. At first glance this appears to look more normal, going to send it down to our quality control people and see if its correct.
  15. That code only replaces alpha characters with a numerical value, its not doing anything if your ouptutting numbers, right? Also why the tagged text?
  16. Alex, I don't know what FATD is but I know we have two options for outputing the IMB data, one option is letters the other numbers. I have not tried using a string so that may be the problem. I have to get on the road but I will try that Monday. --- Using numbers method the FP font renders a broken barcode. Thanks Jorge
  17. Yes Local Fonts is checked. As soon as I apply the font in the text edit window, the variable disappears, I close out the edit window and hit preview and it remains invisible. I compose and it still does not render the barcode. The data I am using for IMB was processed in BCC and looks like this - 0030110749200049619233023388191
  18. Can't get either way to work! Downloaded uspsFonsNonAFP-1.4.1 Load fonts to Mac Load fonts to FusionPro Restart both Adobe and Fusion Pro Apply Font to a text field var and I get an invisible output. If I change the font to something human readable I see my data. Im using FP 6.0 What is going on???
