Thanks Gabriel. You're a life saver! I read on one of the pages I came across at HP that they would do some maintenance work on their site. Perhaps that's the reason the site isn't working properly. I'll give it a try monday when I'm back at work. I managed to get to the correct page. Lo and behold,...

Does anyone have a link to the MyHP page?
I've spent 30 minutes on HP's site trying to find it...

Thanks for the tip. I'll check with them.

Thanks Gabriel.
That clears some of the confusion with regards to how to use the VDP.

Now I just need to figure out how to do the rest of the stuff...

Well Gabriel, I share your sentiment with regards to HP's website. There's a bigger chance to find the proverbial needle in a haystack than actually finding anything you need from them. I spent about two hours looking for a link to the latest version of SmartStream without finding it... :lol: Just a...

I've been tasked to create a flow for variable data jobs, so I downloaded the HP SmartStream Designer - end to end VPD and imposition flow from the Crossroads page to see if I can figure out how to set such a flow up. However there are a few things I don't understand... :lol: Is there any informatio...

Thanks Sander.

I've been really busy at work the last couple of weeks and haven't had time to check the forum in a while.
Thanks for posting the screenshot. I'll look in to it when I have time to do so and will post back later.

Hi Gabriel.

Yes, FTP Receive will not work either unless I tell it to go X folders deep and then it will only fetch the files, not the folders.
I have tried to connect to the FTP-server via afp and then simple use a folder to point to the folder the customer uploads to, but that doesn't work either.

I have a customer who uploads folders containing two pdf files, two text files and an xml file to our ftp-server. I need to move the entire folder from the ftp-server to our file-server and delete the folder from the ftp-server. I then need to make a copy of the folder and place it in an archive for...

OK, I can do that.
But why shouldn't I put it in the JDF-folder?

I have barely seen the Indigo presses, so my knowledge about how to work with them is virtually non-existant...

I remember this error. I think it has to do with the fact that the DFE needs the asset location when it later reads the JDF but Switch needs it to so it will place the document there. So both Switch and the DFE need access to the asset location from the same network path. The easiest way to do this...

I'm working on a flow for our business card production and everything works just fine until I use the HP Digital Front End JDF Control (ver 1.5) to create a JDF file for the press. When the file reach the HP DFE JDF Control I get an error saying "Unable to move asset file to asset location"...

Thanks.

I'll have the customer generate one XML per PDF file then.

Is it possible to read data from an XML file containing information for more than one PDF file and then embed the data in the correct PDF file, or is it better to have one XML per PDF? From an XML file like this... <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <order> <pof>ordernumber</...

Thanks for the explanation and the modified code.

I was a bit lazy, so I copy/pasted it into my script and it works perfectly.
