Hi David, I've seen this happen (the variable name coming in with curly braces in output) when FusionPro sees a request to place a variable field value from the input data (or text rule) that does not exist. Most of the time, it's a simple typo as the culprit.
Just to make sure I understand what you are doing, are you adding a tagged text file as a resource? Can you verify that this is listed as a "Tagged File" resource type as opposed to a "Plain Text File" type in the Resources dialogue? Also, ensure you have the correct syntax for referring to a variable name in the content of that tagged text file. The tagged markup is <variable name="FieldOrTextRuleName">. Make sure you have the double-quotes - especially if your field name has a space in it such as "First Name". Also, verify that the variable name you are entering here is the exact name of a field or text rule you have. Typing "FirstName" instead of "First Name" was a problem I had a couple years ago that kept me looking for a better part of an hour before I caught it. Lastly, try running an actual composition to PDF output. The composition message log may provide additional clues as to what the root problem is. --Mark Hilger Product Manager Printable Technologies, Inc. +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+- Calling all FP Web Users!
