Re: How to use external process for comparing PDF page amounts?

I agree with you, that would be elegant. But in version 6.1.3 I can only compare to a fixed number.

Re: How to use external process for comparing PDF page amounts?

This is somthing I would like Xeox to handel with Route, there should be a Route

where I can say if $FPages$ = $FFwfDoc.pages$ then (Proceed to printer)

All else get saved in a Failed folder.

 

$FPages$ = a MAX Variable in the CSV.

What this would be used for is if my customer put 2 Pages in the file name but the fial actualy has only 1 Page it would fail and not go to the printer.

How to use external process for comparing PDF page amounts?

We want to compare the page number of our MAX field entry (pages ordered by the customer) with the amount of pages in the printfile. If the amount is the same it should pass, if it differs, the job should stop, sending a message or whatever.
The external process seems to be fine for this, but how could we get on the amount of pages in the printfile and send it in different process steps?
