FInding what is MISSING in a sequential series

Thanks for your replies! I suspected as much, but I just needed confirmation that I was not overlooking the standard options within Switch.

FInding what is MISSING in a sequential series

Hi all, Thank you for you help ahead of time. I am looking for a way to figure out what is missing in a sequential series of pdfs. I am receiving pdf files named 01.pdf, 02.pdf, 03.pdf and so on and so forth. I know how many files I need to complete the job, but there will be files missing which I w...

Scaling a PDF

Thanks Dwight and Matt.



The only third party software that I have is PitStop server. I tried looking through the action lists but could not find any scaling actions in the preloaded action lists.



Do i need to create a new one?



Thanks!

Scaling a PDF

Hello all, Does anyone know how to scale a pdf using Switch? I thought I would be able to use InDesign, but I cannot figure out how. I am looking to scale a 3x3 pdf to fit a 2.75x3 (proportionally) area. It is a constant input and output size. Please let me know if you have any suggestions. Thanks, ...

Duplicating a PDF

Is there a way to duplicate the pages of a pdf based on a variable? I have a pdf asset and an XML with a tag inside. I want to duplicate the pdf by the tagged integer.



Somehow I get the feeling that this requires custom scripting... -_-



Thanks!

Combining specific pdf's into 1 pdf file

Hello everyone, I have built a flow (that works) that takes certain pdf's from a repository folder and combines them in a certain order into 1 pdf. I have done this with a combination of 'Inject Job', assigning a job state to specify the order, and 'Assemble' and 'Merge'. This works for all purposes...

How to make a flow with Dynagram inpO2 configurator?

I am having the same issue as well. It just seems the pdf file is not "accepted" by the inp02 element within the flow. I have set my input and output paths to the inp02 element the same way I have with all the other programs I use within Switch. Not exactly sure what the show-stopper is. I...
