Vaid node count

Hi All, I asked this in the flows forum but had no response so I'm trying here and hoping for better luck! I have some XML data and I need the Switch flow to decide what is the next step based on the number of nodes populated. In the extract below only 2 section nodes are valid but it could be up to...

Re: PDFtk burst

They view and print fine. Just can't split them that's why I want to know how to do it with the burst command.

Have you got it to work with PDFtk?

Re: PDFtk burst

The PDF files are made using PDFsharp.
Some work and some don't.... I just don't get any split pages ie all or nothing. SO I'm trying PDFtk to see if that will work with these files from the client.

Re: pdftk and cat command

Trying the cat command with something like this but it fails.
A=100page PDF
B=1page PDF
Output file should have B inserted into A after EVERY page.

A="%1" B="C:\Users\switch\Desktop\Blank.pdf" cat A1-end B1 output "%2"

Any ideas why it won't work?

TIA

Re: pdftk and cat command

pdftk and cat command

The requirement is to have an input file (A.pdf) that is 100 pages long that uses the cat command to insert (B.pdf which is a single page) after every page in A.pdf before saving it out. Is this possi...

Thanks.
That worked. Strange it didn't work by adding it multiple time.

Re: adding to a child node

Anybody able to work out why it won't work with multiple nodes in the newer version of Switch?

the problem line appears to be:
bookNodes.at(i).appendChild(batchIDElement);

Only working as singles :(

Re: Download from a FTP-SSL

Does Switch still not support FTPS?? I run the latest version of Switch.
Has anybody got it to work and have examples that could help me out as we've never set this up before.

TIA

Re: adding to a child node

Hi freddyp,
I tried running this script again this year and the script fails. The only thing that has changed is I've upgraded Switch recently.
Can you check it still works.

UPDATE: It works with a single CustomBook but not multiples
Thanks
