Cannot evaluate expression on Banner page

We've been trying to add some variables on a watermark page that would relay to those in production the details of the job when printed.Some of the variables are cause errors, right now mostly print related information like Main Stock e.t.c.Jobs are submitted by JMF/JDF to freeflow core.We were directed by xerox support to look at the xpaf files for the printer for the value to use for a ProductID that was missing from our JDF. Looking at the xpaf files I'm not sure where I should be looking for this ProductID (nothing is clearly marked thus) or where in the JDF the ProductID should go. Assistance in this would be appreciated. Jedidiah

Alright I'd try this. Does a similar workaround exist for $FFwfDoc.color$? You can test with JDF 3 or JDF 5 and should see the same issue. JDF 3 for reference: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>

Can I use SetFld during GenPrint for banner page fields?

I have a banner page form that has multiple variable fields on it to display information specific to the batch it's being included with (for out post-composition handling area). I currently set those fields' values by assigning variables of the same name (as the fields) within a DAL script called as my BachBannerBeginScript for that batch. The fields on the Banner page form/section have a rule of NOOPFUNC, so without that assign process happening during the DAL script, they inherently hold no value. This has worked fine so far.
Now I have a new banner page for a different process/batch, and it's purpose will be to be a "summary report" of sorts, detailing on the banner page high-level information about each document within that batch. I take information from the batch file (bch), read in an additional external file and aggregate the data in GVMs (to form an array, basically) during the BatchBannerBeginScript. The problem I now have is that I have a variable-sized array (based on the document-count within my batch file), yet my understanding is that I can't use functions available to me in GenData, so I have to basically pre-define as many instances of the section (if I do a report line per section) or field (if I do one section with all instances of the field on it) as I think are possible (max-case scenario, basically).
However, after I have my Section/Fields defined, I still need to use DAL scripting to populate those fields. I tried to use SetFld to populate them, but the values don't show up in my output, leading me to believe that function/rule doesn't work in GenPrint. Is there a better way to set all those fields than to explicitly assign each instance of a field? I'd rather have a short While loop that takes a GVM's instance and assigns it to a variable field name than have hundreds of assign statements where I explicitly assign each possible field.
Thanks,
Gregg

Aha. So you have an existing script that is executing somewhere to assign some other field during print. Depending upon what and when this script runs, you may be trying to set your banner fields too late. You see, as a default the banner page is temporary. Generally it is created, printed, then destroyed all before the first real page of your transaction prints. If you are not using the TransBannerBeginScript INI option as mentioned earlier, you might try to use that method to run your script which should be while the banner page is still alive.
There is another way that you could try to run your script on the given page using what is called a "print time" or "macro" field. This would involve creating one more field on your banner section and name it like this:
~DALRUN MyScript.DAL
Yes, you can name your script something other than MyScript.DAL. The key is the ~DALRUN at the start, which will be interpreted at print time to mean that you want to run the DAL script and return a value. Now, of course you don't need a real value for this field, but there's nothing to stop the script from assigning data into the other fields at that time.
You do have to make sure that this field is the first in sequence on the section. Otherwise, some of your fields may print before it gets to the point to evaluate this "print time" request.
To make sure this is the first field in sequence will differ depending upon whether you are using DMStudio or the older Image Editor. Since you mentioned 11.5, you could use either. In DMStudio, simply click on the "Objects" tab when the section is open and then click on the field to highlight it in the tree. Then use the button bar just above there to move the field to the top of the list.

I suspect I got this error from improper use of parameters (just started using). I've searched for answers in the internet, still I am not sure how to efficiently and correctly use parameters. I'm dealing with this "literal" confusion. I would like to confirm the following:
1. If a local parameter is an integer, how should I set the value and literal field? (say, set value to 0, literal = true?)
2. How about for while loops? The condition is automatically a string. If I use the paramater par_loc, how should I write it (say, par_loc < 100).
3. For Assign operators, data type is also an automatic string. What if I want to have an integer value? Or maybe an integer value thru an expression? (e.g. par_loc + 20).
The questions above somehow summarize the activity I created.
I'll try to do more tests and research and give you an update if I found any solution.
Any help will be deeply appreciated. Thank you, gurus!
Manoy :)

Thanks, Carsten! :)
I applied what you suggested. I still got the same error.
1. Defined the parameter via local variable --> same error as above
2. Defined it under start activity --> got a new error:

Setup banner page for printing

Hello,
I am working with AS team to migrate OAS printing from Samba to LPD based printing using standard windows print queues. However our initial testing no banner page printing on LPD. The banner page prints with Samba. I am just wondering if banner page is part of OA or Samba?
TIA!

....I was told I could connect my printer to so we can print from our iPad, iPhones and iPods.
Unfortunately, the information that you received is not correct.
In order to print from iOS devices, you need to have an AirPrint compatible printer. Your Samsung model is not on the list of AirPrint compatible devices. See this Apple support document for more details:
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4356
Adding or ssing an AirPort Express will not make your printer AirPrint compatible
As a possible workaround, Installing an App like Print Central on each of your iOS devices might allow you to print from the iOS devices to the printer.

After updating on my mac - I cannot open various password protected pages - like my WordPress site. I can open them from Safari and from Firefox on my windows pc.

after updating firefox , it won't allow input of password on various sites - like my wordpress admin page. I can access this page from safari and from firefox on my windows pc.

I cannot open password protected WordPress pages using Firefox. They open using IE
If I remove the password protection the page opens correctly in FF.
I have cleared the FF cache and cookies several times, No change
I have modified the wp-pass.php file several suggested ways related to the referrer and nothing solves the issue.
I tried:
wp_safe_redirect(wp_get_referer());
to

NO GOOD
I tried:<br />
<br />
<pre><nowiki>$location = wp_get_referer();

wp_redirect($location, $status = 302);
</nowiki></pre>
NO GOOD
I have upgraded WordPress to 3.3.1. Still NO GOOD
I have deactivated, and also removed all plug-ins. Still NO GOOD.
Anyone have any ideas?
Why just an FF issue?

HP Color Laserjet 1600 cannot print in color with Pages 09

Hi, everybody!
I got a huge problem for me that the HP Color Laserjet 1600 cannot print in color with Pages 09 after I upgrade to 10.6.1. It worked very well in 10.5.8. Since there is no official driver from HP website for 1600, so I used foomatic/foo2hp as the driver.
It is very strange that I can print in color with Safari and Preview in 10.6.1, but cannot with Pages 09. When I print with Pages 09, it always shows that the print job was completed but my printer was nothing happened.
I just re-install the 10.6 OS "complete new", install the printer driver with the instructions on this forum.
It would be high appreciated if somebody can help me on it!

Why doesn't MAC just give us the driver for the HP Color Laserjet 1600? It's one of the most popular home based business laserjets. It's the one I use and a lot of other people in business use it so I'm at a loss as to why they don't.
I bought my MAC Pro tower for video editing and I can't print from it and have had to reinstall the OS on it once already because Safari wouldn't open a window. So much for the MAc advertising statement of "We're so much easier to use."
After spending close to $10,000 on MAC equipment, Tower, Laptop, Monitor, etc. if they think I'm going to spend more for a new printer just because I can't get a driver to print they're thinking wrong. I going to re-think my new cell phone purchase too. Has anyone had software issuses with their phones before I go out and buy one?

You're running an older version of Pages, perhaps in a folder called "iWork '09" in the Applications folder, or else on your Desktop. Quit it and launch the one at the top level of Applications.

Since installing Mavericks on my MacBook Pro, I have many (not all) documents that cannot be opened in either Pages '09 or Pages 5. They show on my doc lists, but are greyed out so I can't try to change extensions or anything else. Some are PDFs.

Since installing Mavericks on my MacBook Pro, I have many documents, but not all, that cannot be opened in either Pages 5 or in Pages '09. The names show in my document lists, but are greyed out. They do not show any extensions, but I'm sure at seast some of them are PDFs. As I cannot open them, I am unable to try to experiment with any solutions - I am not tech savvy, but can sometimes fix things by trial and error. I have no issues with sharing documents as I have no other devices. I just want to be able to open my saved documents! Also, the documents I can open have to be persistently coaxed to open to a point that it is extremely aggravating. I am not so happy with this recent "upgrade." Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

You use Finder to find stuff. It is what you use to look at where your files are kept and to rename, move or trash them. If you double click on a file in Finder it finds the right software to open it for you.
To open particular files you use the right software for each type. Usually, but not always, the software that made the file.
Pages opens files ending in .pages. Also .txt, .rtf, and doc.
Pages 5 is the latest (but certainly not the greatest) version of Pages. It has trouble opening all sorts of files including the older Pages '09 files but it will still do it.
Unfortunately Apple has chosen for Pages 5 to also save its files as exactly the same file extension .pages despite it being a different format that can not be opened by the older Pages '09.
As we all know Apple is wise and great beyond belief and would not do something that on the face of it looks extraordinarily stupid and shortsighted. Therefore we know that it must be our fault and we are not holding the software right. Because we are bad users, we must be punished, by either having to use Pages 5 or jump through hoops to avoid using Pages 5.
If you have installed Pages 5 any .pages file (old or new) will be opened by Pages 5. If you then save the file, Pages 5 will change the file format. So don't open your files with Pages 5 and don't save them if you do.
To stop Pages 5 opening and resaving your old files, you need to drag it to the trash and empty it.
When it is no longer around to annoy you, you can go back to using Pages 09.

Mapping feature for queries that cannot be expressed using JDO QL

In the "Java Data Objects vs. Entity Beans" thread at theserverside.com,
there was a question concerning the ways to use a query that cannot be
expressed using JDO QL (for example SQL requests having no equivalent) .
Among the possibilities mentionned in his answers, Craig Russel said
that a JDO implementation could map an SQL query to a Java class
directly :
"This might be done by a JDO vendor who mapped a user-specified SQL
query to a JDO PC class. For example, if you have a DEPARTMENT table
that you want to write an aggregate query for "SELECT D.DEPTID,
MAX(E.SALARY) FROM DEPARTMENT D, EMPLOYEE E WHERE D.DEPTID = E.DEPTID".
You would map this query to a JDO PC class DepartmentMaxSalary which has
a key field deptid and a non-key field maxSalary. The key class
DepartmentMaxSalaryKey has a key field deptid.
Now, construct an instance of the key class:
DepartmentMaxSalaryKey dk = new DepartmentMaxSalaryKey(100);
DepartmentMaxSalary d = pm.getObjectById(dk);
System.out.println ("Department " + d.getDeptid()
+ " has max salary of " + d.getMaxSalary());
When the getObjectById is executed a hollow instance of
DepartmentMaxSalary is constructed by the PersistenceManager. When the
d.getMaxSalary() is executed, the implementation of the method accesses
the maxSalary field which causes the PersistenceManager to executes the
query and return the result into the field.
No implementation to my knowledge currently offers this kind of mapping,
but certainly some will in future."
Do you consider in providing this kind of mapping feature in Kodo ?
Thanks in advance.

Do you consider in providing this kind of mapping feature in Kodo ?Patrice,
Sorry for the delay responding to this question. The thread dropped out
of my awareness until Rakesh's followup question today.
We do not currently plan on providing a mechanism for configuring JDO
objects to load themselves from arbitrary SQL queries at this point. The
example above seems a little contrived, for a few reasons:
- Presumably, this aggregate salary object would be read-only.
Read-only JDO fields/objects are a whole separate topic that we
have chosen not to address just yet.
- Where would the complex SQL statement go? Putting it in the
metadata seems less than ideal, as this would make for a hideous
metadata file, and even more complexity and more debugging
problems than using direct JDBC SQL calls. Putting the SQL
statement into the class also seems awkward.
- Kodo provides a mechanism for obtaining a connection to the data
store. When aggregate info are needed or complex,
non-object-oriented queries must be executed, standard JDBC calls
to the data store are probably the most appropriate approach, as
they give you complete access to your data store.
If we see a significant interest in these capabilities, then we may
consider them for a future release.
Thanks in advance.Again, I apologize for the time delay in my response. I hope that this
answers your questions.

I uninstalled and reinstalled and the same stupid box comes up in the middle of the page.

Hello,
Try disabling graphics hardware acceleration. Since this feature was added to Firefox, it has gradually improved, but there still are a few glitches.
You might need to restart Firefox in order for this to take effect, so save all work first (e.g., mail you are composing, online documents you're editing, etc.).
Then perform these steps:
#Open Firefox ''Options'' window (''Preferences'' on Mac or Linux) as follows:
#* In Firefox 29.0 and above, click the menu button [[Image:New Fx Menu]] and select ''Options'' for Windows or ''Preferences'' on Mac or Linux.
#* In Firefox 28.0 and previous versions, click the orange Firefox button at the top left, then select the "Options" button, or, if there is no Firefox button at the top, go to Tools > Options.
#In the Firefox Options (or Preferences) window, click the ''Advanced'' tab, then select ''General''.
#In the settings list, you should find the ''Use hardware acceleration when available'' checkbox. Uncheck this checkbox.
#Now, restart Firefox and see if the problems persist.
Additionally, please check for updates for your graphics driver by following the steps mentioned in the following Knowledge base articles:
* [[Troubleshoot extensions, themes and hardware acceleration issues to solve common Firefox problems]]
* [[Upgrade your graphics drivers to use hardware acceleration and WebGL]]
Did this fix your problems? Please report back to us!
Thank you.

I open a PDF in preview.
I used to be able to simply drag a PDF from the desktop (or a JPG) into that open PDF in Preview.

Have you run any "cleaning" or "optimizing" apps on your Mac or have any antivirus software installed?
Boot into the Recovery volume (boot with the Command + R keys held down), select Disk Utility and repair both the disk permissions and the disk. Reboot normally and try again.
If the above fails reboot into the Recovery volume and reinstall the system. Repair disk permissions afterward.
Also, as a test, log into another user account on your Mac and see if the problem persists there. If it does then it's a system wide issue. If not, it's an account issue.

Hi!
I have a question: how add banner page for report? I have to send information to the printer who is printing the report.
Thx

are you talking about sending control codes to the printer, or a true banner page ? IF a banner page, then insert an additional page header, put your banner page in the top page header, and set it so it only prints when the page count = 1.
