Re: Error: Bad parameter when deleting pages from a PDF

Hi Murnmo, If I delete the section that you redid, "Remove Empty Pages," which has Select last page and Remove Selection, the result is the same as when those actions aren't there. That is to say, there is still a blank page. These actions do not remove the blank second page as intended. S...

Re: Error: Bad parameter when deleting pages from a PDF

Hi Murnmo, Thanks for looking into this. While what you've done with the changes you made eliminates the error for "Bad parameter," it still leaves behind an empty page. It results in having two identical oblong pages, the second one blank. Is there a method by which to automate the remova...

Error: Bad parameter when deleting pages from a PDF

Hello, I have a rather lengthy action list that performs a number of actions that results in the error message "bad parameter" when finished. Because of this at times I am unable to save the file, but the file is essentially corrupt and useable. A workaround is to create a new blank page f...

Re: Displaying page size with a Preflight Profile

I just want it to display the color space in the same way that the trim size can be imprinted onto the page.

I know that you can have mixed cmyk and rgb. I was just curious if this would work.

Re: Displaying page size with a Preflight Profile

Thanks for the help, that's awesome.

By the same token, can you add the color profile? For instance, we have some documents that go to the Iridesse with RGB. Is there a way to have that added as well?

Displaying page size with a Preflight Profile

Hi, I have a question regarding Preflight Profiles in Pitstop Pro. I know that there are many different checks in relation to pages in the Preflight Profile Editor that one can tailor to look for discrepancies, but what would be incredibly useful is to have it inform the actual page dimensions of th...

How to select every 3rd Page

Hi, I am attempting to select every third page by modifying a restriction (see below). What I would like to do is select every third page, starting with the first page (Pages 1, 4, 7, 10, etc.). And what I did below doesn't appear to be working. To be clear, it is more of a restriction, as I want to...

Re: Cut and Paste not working

I have another issue related to this Action List aside from the original issue related to the cut-and-paste problem. My action list is completed and it does precisely what I intended it to do, however, when it finishes it appears to have some sort of issue that prevents me from saving it. I am given...

Re: Cut and Paste not working

TusconOllie,

Thanks! You are right, that is what was needed. I had no familiarity with this action or why it would be needed. This is entirely new territory for me.

Cut and Paste not working

I am undertaking a lengthy procedure with an action list and am about halfway through executing what I aim to do. The snag is when I attempt to cut the contents from page 2 in the PDF and then paste them to page 1. I have never used an action to cut and paste anything, so the setup may be inaccurate...

Re: Objects selected but will not move to new position

Hi Loic, That said, it still only moves interior of the area. I did what you suggested and now I can select all elements. However, I fail to grasp how the Attributes for Change Position dialogue box works for positioning. What I am attempting to is maintain the X axis and shunt downward the selectio...

Re: Objects selected but will not move to new position

Hi Loic,

I wanted to point out that when I run the action list (with the visualizer) it does select both the frame and that the content within. The frame is denoted by purple and the other content by green:

Hi, Where I work we have a consistent problem with page box errors when outputting from xmpie or today it happened when exporting an imposition from Kodak Prinergy. I don't know if the two are related but I am looking for a quick-fix to this issue and some enlightenment. When using xmpie with inDesi...
