The way to approach hierarchies is by starting at the end: when a job hits "Archive hierarchy" this element creates a folder and subfolder structure based on what is in the [Job.Hierarchy] variable. The same is true by the way for "FTP send". It is your job as a flow designer to make sure this varia...

i do not have an active license for the HP SmartStream Design Imposition plug-in, so I can only formulate suggestions. Investigate the box setup of the input PDF. You write that the PDF contains bleed, but does that mean that it has a bleed box? Or is the trim box just bigger? Is there even a trim b...

There is an Illustrator save option that determines whether or not the ICC profile should be included and the default is "false". That probably explains why saving as Illustrator loses it. This being said, you should not save the PDF with a script for the Command property, but just with the standard...

It is correct, but there is something unnecessary in the reasoning that I would get rid of. The result of the Search on the job name with the regex you have specified will be one of the strings in the regex. If none of these strings is present the result is an empty string. So far, so good. You then...

A word of advice: do not do this using legacy scripting, use NodeJS instead. It may take you a bit longer to get started, but in the long term it will bring you more benefits. There are packages to convert JS objects to XML (e.g. json2xml). In other words, read the text file and place the info into ...

@Sunnyland: you can make the HTTP part of your code simpler based on the advice I gave in this post: viewtopic.php?f=26&t=3959

Same remark as for this post ( https://forum.enfocus.com/viewtopic.php?f=26&t=3849 ): use Promises! A word of advice for working with HTTP calls: use the axios package. It is easy to use and highly configurable. const axios = require("axios"); //JavaScript import axios from "axios"; //TypeScript ......

Has there been a change in the setup of Switch that it is now running as a service? If so, that will not work. Installing the latest version of the configurator is also a good idea (you can always go back if need be). Try by not having AI open when the script starts, so Switch opens it. Try with a v...

You also have to make sure the ExtendScript Toolkit is installed. It used to be installed by default, but that is no longer the case.

There are 140 preflight profiles under the Standard section. These come preinstalled with PitStop Pro. You will see that the Ghent PDF Workgroup section contains by far the largest number of profiles. That is because the Ghent Workgroup does a great job at specifying standard checks for different ty...

You have to test for equality instead of inequality:

a part of the filename is equal to something from metadata
OR
another part of the filename is equal to something from metadata

AND

the mail address contains something

It is a problem of the logic not being correct. You check if the variant of the ID in the metadata is also in the filename and there are two possible variants. This means there is always one variant that will not be equal. So, (A OR B) will always be false. Once you realize this, the solution is obv...

The description of the problem leaves a lot to the imagination, but I do not think it is the idea to add 2 random characters. What my imagination tells me is that there is a piece of metadata with a value, let us say, "abc" and the flow has to find a template that is named "abcxy", but it could also...

If the links cannot be found and "Fail jobs with unavailable images" is set to Yes, I would say that is normal. Illustrator links to images using relative paths and as the file in Switch is not in the same location as the original the paths to the images cannot be resolved correctly. If the images a...

Anyways, so now I need to pickup this XML in switch, so that switch can read one of metadata lines and download file from URL. How do I exactly point Switch to read certain line? Once your XML is attached as a dataset (in this case attached to itself) you can use what is called an XPath in the Meta...
