mclisa81 Posted December 22, 2010 Posted December 22, 2010 Hi, I need help with some javascript. A client is supplying me the page count of the pdfs they are supplying. How can I divide the number of pages supplied in half and return a certain range. I hope this isn't too vague. For example, Field1=32. I need to divide that in half and return a certain range of pdf pages within my template.
Dan Korn Posted December 22, 2010 Posted December 22, 2010 If I understand what you're asking, you can use the Inserting Multi-page PDF variable graphics example and simply divide the number of pages in half in the rule.
mclisa81 Posted December 29, 2010 Author Posted December 29, 2010 Hi Dan, I'm still struggling with this. I decided to delete my other posts because I've been working on it for 3 days and I've found some things out and changed some. I'm stuck on the crashing when I try to use the fpi file with my template. It only started crashing after I added the multi page pdf rule to my template. It crashes every time. I'm uploading my template to make it easier to see. Maybe since the page count is in the data, the rule can be simplified and that would stop the crash. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.Royal_template.zip
step Posted December 30, 2010 Posted December 30, 2010 Have you tried deleting "TextinsertionruleFront" and composing your output file? I have a feeling that since both "TextinsertionruleFront" and "TextinsertionruleBack" have defined javascript globals differently (i.e. pageLoop), it is causing some confusion at composition. If it composes fine afterwards, you may want to define the global variables locally in each respective rule.
mclisa81 Posted January 5, 2011 Author Posted January 5, 2011 Issue resolved. Installed latest fp7 version and that fixed the crashing problem.
