Hi Jaroslav,

it would be great to achieve that with handlecsv.

Many thanks for your reply,

Pablo

Many thanks for your reply, Hans.

I’m afraid that we have 35 different types of documents, with optional
content implemented through modes. CSV is handled by the handlecsv
module by Jaroslav Hajtmar (which in turn uses LuaTeX code from ConTeXt).

My Lua script would have to replicate at least part of this
functionality. I don’t say it is impossible. But I’m sure it is
impossible to me (I cannot code). Or at least, it would be unnecessarily
complex.

A good compromise would be a Lua script that copies the original file
with only one page in each copied file (in some documents, I need two
pages, but this will come later). I mean, those documents have metadata
information and printing options which need to be present in all copies.

I think this should be an easy hack, but I don’t know where to search.
The “LuaTeX Reference Manual” contains “12.3 The epdf library”. “MkIV
Hybrid Technology” has the chapter “12 Including pages”.

I will appreciate any help with this script.

Pablo

Re: [NTG-context] generate multiple files from one source

2017-02-19 Thread Jaroslav Hajtmar 
Hello Pablo,
I am using a new calling of ConTeXt ie. compile new source code from the main 
source code. It is possible due \executesystemcommand macro. Necessary 
parameters You can pass to new compiling source. For example:

\executesystemcommand{context --result invoice-\cA.pdf --arguments = "cA = \cA" 
servingfile.tex}.  

This possibility create a particular PDF file for recipient \cA. 

PS 2Pablo only: This option is possible with handleCSV module. The possibility 
of using handleCSV module I will publish to GitLab repository as soon as 
possible - today or tomorrow. I was very busy this weekend.

Dear list,

I have the following sample:

\setuppapersize[A8, landscape]
\starttext
\dorecurse{10}{
\startpagemakeup[align=center]
This is invoice number \recurselevel.

Customer name from CSV file.

Other data from the same CSV file.
\stoppagemakeup}
\stoptext

How can I get new PDF documents with a one invoice per document instead
of new page breaks?

I need PDF documents with only one invoice (but with the correct number)
and also a single PDF document with all invoices.

Of course, my real documents are more complex. What I need is a file
breaking command. Appending -1, -2, -3... -n to the PDF file name would
be fine for me.

How could I achieve this in the ConTeXt compilation?

Many thanks for your help,

Pablo

just make one invoice where you pass the variable data on the command 
line and then make a small lua script that loops and processes each variant

I wouldn’t be surprised if ConTeXt can do that on its own, but I don’t know 
how, and I’d use a postprocessor like pdftk to split a multipage file into 
single pages.
