ImageMagick – cannot send job
Hi all I've been having issues lately with ImageMagick on Windows Server. Whenever I try to convert anything, the following error is displayed in the messages: Cannot send job: path 'E:/Enfocus Switch/temp/1/ScriptElement/109/7/ExecuteComandResult/[i]filename[/i].jpg' does not exist I've attached a ...

Experiences with Microsoft Office applications
Hi all
I was wondering what your experiences with MS office applications are and how you implement them into Switch flows. I have a couple of use cases in mind, like a sort of preflight for Excel and Word files aswell as certain file conversions (i.e. xslx to txt). What are your guys' experiences?

Re: Recursive on Rename Job not working
The regex for action 5 says to match anything that is not alphanumeric or that is two underscores one or more times. But underscores are also not alphanumeric and replace one or more by one is also correct. I would say the regex simply has to be [^a-zA-Z0-9]+ which means replace one or more non-alp...

Re: Rounded trimbox values as PrivateData
You could combine both steps into one: new_size=[Switch.Calculation:Expression="round([Switch.Calculation:Expression="[Stats.TrimBoxWidth:Type="Defined"]/2.83465"])"]x[Switch.Calculation:Expression="round([Switch.Calculation:Expression="[Stats.TrimBoxHeight:Ty...

Re: Rounded trimbox values as PrivateData
You can use the round-function with the calculations. So your variable construction could look something like this: [Switch.Calculation:Expression="round([Stats.TrimBoxWidth:Type="Defined"])"]x[Switch.Calculation:Expression="round([Stats.TrimBoxHeight:Type="Defined"...

Re: Recursive on Rename Job not working
Try with the Action - Reduce character set to get rid of all the special characters and then an action to replace multiple underscores. The regex for that is just _+ and replace it by a single underscore. Reduce character set doesn't work for my case unfortunately. I use this method to "normal...

Re: Split PDF to color separations
Thank you for your replies! The files to process are single page PDFs, colors vary. Might be CMYK only, might contain a number of spot colors. I hadn't thought about trapping, you're right... Could the files not be trapped before splitting them into separations?

Split PDF to color separations
Hi all
I'm trying to figure out a way to split a single page PDF into color separations. Is there a way with PitStop Server? Or do I need to work through Acrobat with a PS printer and script the whole thing? Any input is greatly appreciated.

Set preferences for flow elements
I was wondering this recently: Is there a way to set preferences for flow elements? For example, PitStop Server always sets Optimization to "File size only" which I'm not a fan of. Can I configure the PitStop Server element to always default to "None" instead of "File size o...

Re: Inject Job throws script error
Solved the issue. The problem was that the metadata was empty (and will be empty in many cases) which results in an error since Inject Job (and Inject Wildcard and Inject Job Lite) cannot work with an empty job name. I was of the impression that the fail state or the "red traffic light" wo...

Re: Inject Job throws script error
I'm trying to inject a folder structure. If it exists, it should be injected, if not, the XML file that started the workflow is being processed differently. I'm not using any scripts. Please find attached my properties for the repository. It's okay that "Job Name" is empty, this folder doe...

Re: Inject Job throws script error
Thank you for the fast response! The path may or may not exist. I have two exiting connections, one injects the desired repository if it exists, the other is set to "failed". The goal is to check if a job already exists and do something with it if it does. If it doesn't, another workflow i...

Hi all A flow of mine is throwing an unexpected script error on Inject Job (see attached screenshot, says «Error in code line 160» or something along those lines). I'm injecting an XML which picks itself up and the I choose to either inject a job repository if it exists or relay the XML to another f...

Smart Preflight: check colors
Hi all! I've been playing around with Smart Preflight in PitStop Server and Switch and I came to a little roadblock. I'd like to compare colors of a PDF to the ones in an XML. The XML file is attached as metadata and the color part looks like this: <Order> ...other stuff <Colors> <FrontColors> <Colo...
