Table with varying number of columns with copyfitting

sdavenport · February 18, 2019

We have a project to produce pricing tags. There is always one row but there can be up to 4 columns of prices. Copyfitting needs to happen such that when one price is really long ($11,999.99) all the other prices on that tag need to copyfit to the same point size. Also, the static text "SET" or "EACH" may also appear to the right of the price (in a smaller font size) if their fields are populated. There can also be two additional lines that fall directly beneath the price - Original Price and/or Carat Weight. These two line also copyfit but can get no smaller than 4 pts.

Also, for Canadian pricing an additional cell/column needs to be added to that price to contain a maple leaf graphic (attached). The maple leaf always remains the same size, when used.

We set this up initially as text boxes and graphic boxes(for maple leaf) but cannot control the copyfitting and the position of the maple leaf (the maple leaf is floating too far to the left of the price - see the attached sample of the 2 price layout).

A table layout would be a much better option where you can measure the cell content to generate the cell width keeping the maple leaf tucked up against its price. The real challenge is the copyfitting... is it possible to produce a table that will also incorporate the copyfitting described above?

The attached PDF shows what our template is currently producing. But we need the pricing to copyfit to the same size for all prices and the maple leaf needs to be just to the left of its price. Sample data also attached.
