Re: Lock PDF
I would have preferred to use Pitstop (if the function existed) or an application from the appstore.

Path aspect to the center
Hello,
Is it possible to modify this path aspect with Pitstop, putting it outside, in the center or inside?

My aim is to set the cutting lines to the center by default, because the overprint check doesn't work if they're outside or inside.
Thanks

Re: Location Path Metadata List
I try this but without success. Have I made a mistake? [Metadata.Text:Dataset="Payload",Model="JSON",Path="/data/fields[key='question_8zkRMO']/value"] or [Metadata.Integer:Dataset="Payload",Model="JSON",Path="/data/fields[key='question_8zkRMO']/...

Hello, is there a trick to retrieve the value following the key given in a structure like the one below? Instead of using this way? [Metadata.Text:Dataset="Payload",Model="JSON",Path="/data/fields/2/value"] https://www.schmitz.be/images/Capture-2025-02-07.png Thank you.

Re: Reorder pages in a pdf
Thank you for your help. I have found and simplified as follows: When I have a job ticket that is created or edited (for example: 1400-3.pdf), I place it where the others of the same order are.

Re: Switch Calculation - If Variable don't exist
I finally used the app String replace to standardise this data for all my products.
It was a bit tricky but it works.
Thanks magnussandstrom
