InDesign to PDF Config = Useless Error Messages

Maybe I’m missing something, but, when using the included Adobe InDesign to PDF configurator (with ID CC 2015), and I set the “Fail jobs with unavailable fonts” (and images) flags to yes, there is no useful data in the Job: [FailMessage] or [FailFlow] or [FailElement] metadata, all it does is list t...

Re: XSLT Need Help

Thanks again Gabe for the clarification, never hurts to have yet another tool in my tool belt - sometimes I just need a one-off piece of data and that will get me there. I will continue to look into your preferred method.

Re: XSLT Need Help

Thanks for that. But I'm still not tracking if you're saying this _by itself_:

[Metadata.Text:Path="/fields/field[@name='customer']/value",Dataset="RgpepperXml",Model="XML"]

Would accomplish what I'm after, at least in theory.

Re: XSLT Need Help

Are these 2 different methods? one for XPath and one using PrivateData? XLST is hard for me, so I don't really use it. You don't have to transform that to get the values. Here is how to do it with XPath: [Metadata.Text:Path="/fields/field[@name='customer']/value",Dataset="RgpepperXml&...

Re: How to Associate PF Report w/Original PDF

It's not working, because I'm still getting "_report", the very thing I'm allegedly removing.

Re: How to Associate PF Report w/Original PDF

Now I think I'm just looney, I'm using a custom email template, and that's where I saw "_report", but I wonder (can't recall now) if I was already trying to strip that off for the email because the syntax is "Please find attached your preflight report for file [Job.NameProper:Before=&...

Re: How to Associate PF Report w/Original PDF

Never mind, turns out I'm the one adding "_report" to me email. Still, I am curious if anyone else has wrestled with the idea of having a unified identifier in this sort of scenario before.

Email Notifications For Simple File Copy

Among the humble things I'm using Switch for, one of them is handling a file transfer to a remote location with low bandwidth (allows me to delegate the task). The flow is just two folders - the local IN folder, and the folder on the remote share (typically a Windows server via SMB.) My quandary is ...

Curious if anyone has successfully configured a Connector (working with ConnectALL) to use an HTTP update server, not having any success here.
