Version of node.js supported by Swtich v25.11
I inadvertently updated my much older version (16) of node.js to v25.2.1.
Then, I saw in the scripting version table that the most current version is 20.
Do I need to downgrade version 25.2.1 to version 20?

Re: XPath expression issue
I tried just following down the XPath and it gave me a correct value. I can use that process for the rest of the XML values.
Any reason(s) why my original expression wouldn't work? I know I've used it before and I copied it right out of the Switch Help doc on XPath.

XPath expression issue
Okay, so I haven't worked with XPath in a version or two, but the command I used to use to parse XML files via an expression doesn't work. I even copied the syntax from the help page and it still gives me an error. I'm sure it must be something that I don't remember, or didn't write down in my notes...

Re: Quite Imposing/Hot and Set trim box by marks
Okay, so that was weird. In getting a file ready to upload, I decided to set the marks back to "default" in the Quite Imposing Step and Repeat wizard. Then, finished the imposition. Ran the action for "set box by trim marks" and this time, it worked. Since I couldn't use the mark...

Quite Imposing/Hot and Set trim box by marks
I have a flow I have been trying to set up and have run into an issue. I can't get the action "Use trim marks to set page box" to recognize the trim marks added to an imposition using Quite Imposing v5. I have the preference for the marks set to "all separations". Pitstop Inspect...

HTTP Request tool for JMF submission??
Good morning! So, I'm looking for some additional assistance with a flow I've been working on for a customer. Also, it's been a great learning experience for me. The batch file is working great (thanks again Freddie!) and the files I combined have been read correctly by the printer. Now, however, I ...

Re: Concatenate two files to create new combined file
Freddie, you are the MAN! Thanks so much! I figured it needed to see the folder, but it didn't even occur to me to put a change directory command in the batch file. That is very useful info and I will definitely remember it for the future. The flow is now working correctly and I will go to work to a...

Re: Concatenate two files to create new combined file
Thanks for the scripting info. Looks like trying a script is moving past my basic Javascript knowledge level. So, I tried to use a batch file (tested in a cmd window and it works), but once I try to have Switch run the batch, it tries to process each file separately. I have had problems figuring out...

Concatenate two files to create new combined file
So, I have a need to create a PDF that contains a JDF file. The new file is for printing on a JDF compatible production printer, not for viewing in any PDF viewer. Merging the two files together is easy using the Windows "copy" command, but since I need to do this within a flow, I was wond...

Re: Problem with Execute Command
In the previous testing, I was using paths with no spaces. I learned a long time ago using folder names with spaces is just asking for trouble. So, instead of a space, I use a dash (-). Of course, the Switch installation has no such rule, so there were spaces in that path. Originally, this morning, ...

Re: Problem with Execute Command
So, after some further testing, it looks like CSV Splitter does not like the really long path required to read from and send to files inside a flow. I tested the app at the command line and tried to get a result using files inside the flow's backing folders and received the same error in the Command...

Re: Problem with Execute Command
Yes, I tested the program at the command line and it worked as expected. I changed the arguments as you listed and made sure that the execution mode was concurrent. Failed, but the logs show an interesting error. The program was trying to access the Switch folder in AppData and was denied. I tried c...

Problem with Execute Command
I'm trying to get Execute Command to run the *.exe of CSV Splitter and can't seem to find the right arguments. I always have problems with this applet and there is no good documentation for it. I've read the Help and it doesn't really go into specifics on *how* you can get the arguments to work, use...

Re: How to validate addresses in CSV or XML
Validate as a place with a physical location or as a USPS-deliverable address? To be USPS-valid, there must be an approved mail receptacle at the location. USPS validation requires a mail sorting configurator, two of which are available in Switch.
