Re: PitStop action lists via script

You should write a script(expression) that results in a path to a actionlist
So eg: C:\path\to\actionlist.eal

Or if you want multiple, separate them with a semicolon:
C:\path\to\actionlist_1.eal;C:\path\to\actionlist_2.eal

Re: Combining pdf's

PDFtk might be another solution.
https://www.pdflabs.com/tools/pdftk-the-pdf-toolkit/

It's (almost) free software with also a "Server" product.

Re: Insert files into folder

Use the "Assemble job" to create the folder.
But if the original is comming in in folder 19, why inject it?

Re: Convert XML to XMP and inject XMP

If you've got the scripting-module, you could write a script for it.
Another option would be to use a XSLT-transformation. Wouldn't need the scripting-module for XSLT

Re: XML Pickup for Multiple Values

You can quite easy sort the files based on the number of nodes with a quantity >= 250 or <=25 I've created a flow like this: https://i.imgur.com/IngHE49.png The condition for routing to folder 3 or 4 is: https://i.imgur.com/L2sBIxl.png [Metadata.Integer:Path="count(//ORDER_ITEM[ORDER_QUANTITY >...

Re: How to avoid overwriting IPTC data when using XMP inject?

Never used XMP-data, but i guess you could first pickup the entire xmp-data. Then modify it and inject it.

Re: Define single-linge text with variables (Build Location path)

If you use "//Publication/Name" you should find all "Publication" nodes with a child "Name"
Thats because of the double slash

Re: First page empty after "reorder pages"

In an actionlist you can only paste objects to a page behind the page it was copied form.
So you can copy from page 1 to 2 or 3
But not from page 2 or 3 to page 1

Re: To split double page pdf file into single page

I know Callas pdfToolbox (Server) has an option for this, but with PItstop (server) it should also be possible.
