Adding Page Dimensions at the end of a file name
I have created a flow where it adds the trim box dimensions at the end of the file, but it adds them in Points. Is there a way so it can adds millimeters instead.

You have to use Switch Calculations to convert it to mm. Multiply with 0.352778

Suggestion:
Code: Select all
[Switch.Calculation:Expression="round([Switch.Calculation:Expression="[Stats.TrimBoxWidth:Type="Effective"]/2.83464567"])"]x[Switch.Calculation:Expression="round([Switch.Calculation:Expression="[Stats.TrimBoxHeight:Type="Effective"]/2.83464567"])"]

In the Pitstop configurator you can also set it to create a report (which you do not need to use), and then you can change the unit.
A feature request for the configurator could be the ability to set the unit, without needing to create the report. But maybe there are some technical reasons for it.

I will just add that my action list uses the built in variable in Pitstop to get the size of the Trim Box.
So not a Switch variable.

I'll add in another suggestion, using FastLane from Pisttop, it will just provide you with any of the box sizes needed, Bleed, Trim, Media, ect. No calculation needed.
