JDF Pickup and XSLT Transform

Hi Freddie,



I've attempted your suggestion but I must have something wrong. I cant understand what part of Switch I "create a variable set" in. Is it a connection? or through the Pitstop configurator?



Regards

JDF Pickup and XSLT Transform

Hi Freddy, Yes it did work, ( Thanks Evan for helping me with this!) changing modes to be able to pickup the data out of a held file seems to work fine. I copied all the paths required to notepad to speed things up. [Metadata.Text:Path="/jdf:JDF/jdf:ResourcePool[1]/jdf:RunList[1]/@NPage",D...

Sorting files by trimbox size -Rounding

Sorting files by trimbox size -Rounding

Hi, I am using Switch to sort files based on trimbox width and height. Some files are not exactly the correct size by less than 0.1 mm but I want to allow these small inaccuracies through. Is there a rounding function? I am currently using: [Switch.Calculation:Expression="[Stats.TrimBoxWidth]*0...
