Re: False Positives on Transparency Preflights

1. In Acrobat, which Object Browser and Inspector are we talking about? I wrongly assumed it was obvious I was referring to PitStop Pro. 2. In Illustrator, it seems flattening the logo again got rid of the transparency groups Ah, you are editing your PDFs in Illustrator. You should read this post f...

Re: False Positives on Transparency Preflights

It was what I expected: the file contains forms that are transparency groups. Forms (not the interactive kind with fields and checkboxes, etc.) are a way of grouping objects, and the special thing is that these forms have properties themselves independent of the properties of the objects inside the ...

Re: How to duplicate layers in PitStop Server?

Good question. It is VERY important to realize that an action only does something if the selected objects are meaningful for that action. Select images Outline text It is easy to understand that this does not do anything. If you do Select images Copy Paste that does not do anything either, because y...

Re: Debugging Strangeness

The fact that there is an outMain.js means that Switch has had to do some processing on the file to make it work in a CommonJS environment. Does your script use ES Modules? Are you debugging a script folder or a packed script? Adding breakpoints to the outMain.js should work, or doesn't it? It is no...

Re: How to duplicate layers in PitStop Server?

You need a second version of the file contents that can be modified and afterwards discarded. Here is a strategy to do that. Select all Copy Select all //this one is important before pasting Paste Select last added objects Assign objects to layer with name, e.g. TEMP //Now you have a copy in a separ...

Re: Version of node.js supported by Swtich v25.11

Switch uses its own NodeJS version when running scripts and apps, so there is nothing you need to do. There is a caveat if you write your own Switch scripts. It is not uncommon that script writers build test versions of parts of the code of a Switch script and that they run these tests outside of th...

Re: Switch 2021 Fall and Mac OS 15 (arm)

Ben is right, but I would like to add a general remark. There is one source of truth for this: the system requirements pages on the Enfocus website. https://www.enfocus.com/en/support/system-requirements/switch-system-requirements You have to scroll down to find older versions, and indeed, Sequoia i...

Re: Child job is created inside a folder

const newjob = await job.createChild(zipFolder) The parameter of createChild is the path that becomes the child job. zipFolder is a folder, so the new job will be a folder. You have to use the path that points to the ZIP file inside that folder. If you know the name you can concatenate it to zipFol...

Re: class PdfDocument in Switch 25.11

There are quite some settings involved in the package.json, tsconfig.json and the code itself. It may be just one of the settings that is wrong, but there is only one way to tell and that is by looking at the whole picture. Please report this to support and provide the script folder and the package ...

Re: Sorting Duplicate Files

If I interpret it correctly you could have multiple PDF files starting with for example ISBN number 9789401913119: 9789401913119.pdf, ..., 9789401913119_16.pdf. You then receive 9789401913119.xml. With the "Inject wildcard" app you can inject the PDF that starts with 9789401913119 and that...
