Re: Using one object as reference for the position of another?

I would select the object you need to reference. Set the Art box to selection.
And the place your graphic relative to the Art box.

Re: 2nd option for unzipping

With the latest version of the Unarchive app I have reported a bug, because it did not unzip my files correctly.
You could try to install the older version and see if it unzips the files correctly.

Yeah. Prefix and suffix would be cool.

Re: Sequential Numbering Action List

If it is more general numbering it could be nice to set the step count.

Re: Photoshop App

If its just SVG data in the file, maybe you could use the JSON Pickup, and then use Switch to extract the information and write to an SVG-file.
From here you could use Inkscape from the commandline to convert to PNG.
Or maybe PDF to keep it as vector.

Do you have a sample file?

Re: EMFILE: too many open files ..main.js

I updated to version 12 of Inject Job yesterday.
And then I got the EMFILE error for an Inject Job element.

But does this error show up if just one app has the problem?
So the amount of temp-files limit is for the Switch-installation?

Re: Flow to automate creation gif image

Do you need both the gif and mp4 file?
Which platform (Windows/macOS) are you running Switch on?

Re: Shapes as comments

I can PM you the file, but I don't think I can post it publicly. I'll send it after this is posted. It is a weird file. Because if I make a rectangle with the comment tool (as one of the other comments are), and then flatten annotations it is visible. But the ones made by your customer is not. Mayb...

Re: Shapes as comments

Weird. It tried it on a file with drawn annotations.
Are you allowed to share the file?

Re: Shapes as comments

There is a standard action list named "Flatten Annotations".
I think it does what you need.

Re: Advice on Automating PDF Workflows

Our use of Switch and Pitstop Server has been more organic. That is because we started way back when it was called CaslonFlow (I think). The first task was to move postscript-files from Preps to our RIP. So have never had a big implementation strategy. But the use has grown steadily. If you partner ...

Re: Enfocus Switch 12 Issues

Look at the error e-mail and see from which folder it fails.
See if any of the connections from this folder has any parameters.

See this video: https://d.pr/v/S0M3uX

It is a good idea to also label the connections, so you visually can see what it does.
