Merging Files with common back

[MJDS]

I have a regular job very week, where there are 9 files.
They are named

Common Back
Front 1
Front 2
Front 3
Front 4
Front 5
Front 6
Front 7
Front 8

Is there a way of combining each of the fronts with the common back file?

The easiest way would be with Pitstop server with action list an variable set. You could do it without as well by assembling then merging each file with the back

How will the files be named? Meaning is it obvious what file is the back based on the name?

The common reverse always has the word Back in the filename. It does not appear on the front files.

Here is a flow that does what you asking for (zip-file in the bottom).

• The file names of both fronts and backs must start with the same id followed by an underscore.

• The file name of the back must contain the word back

Like this:
0001_My filename back.pdf
0001_My first front file.pdf
0001_My second front file.pdf
And so on...


You need to change two things in the flow:
1. The path in the Backsides folder (purple)
2. The variable url_to_backfile in the Enfocus Varible Set add_back. Set it to match the path to the backsides folder (in windows you need to replace backslash with forward slashes).
