Dear Members,
I have two questions:
1.
Please advise if we can create a single adobe PDF document with page numbers based on the number of invoices being processed. Currently we are creating one separate adobe document for each invoice. Is it possible to create a single document with multiple pages.
2.
Please advise if there are any options to merge different layouts into a single Adobe page at the time of presentation. i.e. Display the adobe document with Page 1, 2,3...when each page belongs to different layouts.
Please share your inputs/ideas.
Thanks,
Chaitanya
Hi Chaitanya,
1) yes if your Invoice design such that it fits in one page then you can have n invoices in n pages with page number (having a page number is not a big issue anyways.) it just depends on your design.
2) gain this is a desing approach issue. lets see the below example
you have 3 different page sizes to be displayed A4, A5, A4 Landscape
You need to design the page content first with a hidden field in each page
At runtime in the driver program / interface there sud be some parameter which drives the decision right, so send this decision as "yes" to that layout hidden field.
on the form just write a script if not yes hide the page.
Hope this gives you some light.
Cheers,
Sai

Hi,
1)
If you know the number of invoices already before the form processing, then you can assign that value to the some interface value, bind it to you form context and use in the layout.
2)
Many ways to achieve this. If you are calling the form from the tailored program, you can have a separate form for every different layout.
Other approach is to use subforms, etc. own subform for every layout. Then according to some value, hide / show subforms
Then, if number of layouts is only few, maybe you can just make a different page for every layout (but use the same form).

Thanks HAnnu.
Would it be possible for you to give additional specifics.
1. The interface parameter
2. We already have different forms. We would like to merge them when creating a adobe document when the user views it. The call to the adobe doesnt seem to have interface parameters for the differnet layouts.
