Multiple Files from FP Desktop Composition I have tried to compose a file using Fusion Pro Desktop 4.1p1d into multiple PDF files. The goal is to take a 10,000 record job and split it into 10 different pdf files while doing the composition.
The Output tab allows me to choose to split up the file via the 'output to multiple files' option. However when I try to use this option during the composition I get an error in the composition log file telling me that "The number of records requested in a chunk is not compatible with the imposition setting. The number of records in a chunk has been adjusted." -- The result is I get one large file with all the records in one file. I have played with my settings in the FPI (imposition) file. I get no error msg. and I get multiple files (as expected) when I turn of all Stack Settings. The problem here is I need to keep my stack settings on so that when the file is printed I don't get just records 1-4 (its a 4-up imposition) on the first sheet and 5-8 on the second sheet etc. making for a nightmare in cutting/sorting land. I was expecting to use Infinite stack settings, but was willing to calculate the stack number needed. I tried entering in the stack number I thought I needed and ended up with the same error msg, yet I got 2 files, #1 with most of the job and #2 with the last 3 records. Questions: 1) Does the 'output to multiple files' options work with a 4-up (duplex or simplex) imposition setting? 2) What settings do I need to change in order to utilize the 'output to multiple files' choice while composing a file? -- Ronnie Bincer Variable Data Specialist [EMAIL PROTECTED] +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+- Calling all FP Web Users!
