We mainly use it for printing PDFs and runnning a few other custom scripts

New illustrator version does not support Windows server

From version 29.0, Adobe illustrator does not support any version of windows server anymore. What is the recommended solution here?

The following error occurs randomly, few times a day. Could this be connected to the job being saved by the user at the same time switch tries to copy it?

Re: Archive hierarchy moving files to wrong folder

3. I tried changing the Job.Hierachy metadata with string replace to fix the address, but it does nothing there. I tried both, dataset and private data options with (\;tb-fp02\;switch)=T: but nothing changed. In this scenario I would add Job.Hierarchy to a Private Data tag than use the app Private ...

Archive hierarchy moving files to wrong folder

I have files coming in, where in the metadata, a link to the location is saved when creating the files by a user. Sometimes the user is using an unc path, and other times they are using a regular file path, e.g.: \\tb-fp02\switch\DO Sample T:\DO Sample I have been using a custom nodejs script to mov...

Re: Replace string in hyperlink, new Outlook error

Have you tried this app? https://www.enfocus.com/en/appstore/product/uri-handler Tried, but had no success, it just displayed the encoded URI as regular text, even though it was inside html tags. Although a solution I found was to use UNC paths in the link. Outlook still displays the link with enco...

Re: Replace string in hyperlink, new Outlook error

&nbsp is an HTML construct. A space in a URL is encoded as %20, so if you use that in String replace it should work. I am running into some difficulties with this. I am not sure if String Replace does change the spaces or not. When i run the file through String Replace with Private data mode, n...

Re: Unknown error chmod, stat

hello, is there a specific reason why you want a script to copy the files to a network drive? Copying files (duplicate) is pretty basic using Switch without a script... Not really. I was a beginner in Switch when I started this flow and since the archive hierarchy description sounded not so safe to...

Most stable Illustrator version for Switch

We are planning to update our illustrator version to something newer. Currenty we are running 24.2.1, which is really old, but it almost never crashes or causes any issues. The constant issue with illustrator is that all of the versions have some kind of bugs that crash the program, making work with...

Re: Rush job not working

There is another aspect: the flow starts with Receive from Switch. The Send to Switch and Receive from Switch apps are still written in legacy code and therefore they cannot transfer the Rush setting. I have never tried using rush jobs with the Subflow and/or Flow Links apps, but these are written ...

Rush job not working

When multiple files are waiting for processing, giving one job the Rush job status does not raise it to the front of the list and still keeps processing jobs in the same queue as they were. See picture for reference. I add rush job to a job in the folder marked 1, so that it would be the first one t...

Have you double checked that the metadata in all the incoming files says 9?
Yes, the metadata is created in one xml file, that is then attached to all the files created by the job.
