Nicola, Don't know if this will give you any help or further ideas, but...
we have had a few of our customers use our web site templates to create a flyer, biz-card, etc, and request a pdf file for proofing purposes, but then simply not place/complete their order. Instead they would download the preview that was created. It got so bad that we changed the templates to have a big "proof only" stamp on them and even placing passwords so the pdf file couldn't be taken to a local copy shop and then simply run off any many as they liked for less money. We accomplished this by adding an additional data field to all of our data files called "isProof", populate it with an X or blank, and having two config files -- one for proof and final processing. An "X" is placed when the customer fills in their information and requests a proof to be sent. The output pdf file contains a "proof only" stamp, is also low-res and possible passwords are added allowing the file to be viewed only. After the customer clicks a button approving their order based on this proof, the template is called again in FusionPro Server with the same instance file except that the isProof field is now blank, and we use a different config file labeled as templatename-output-final.cfg. This blank isProof field produces a file with no proof stamp on it, and the different config file tells FusionPro Server to make this file hi-res with no passwords. Again I'm simply the template programmer, and I have nothing to do with the interface with our website or the programming that does the data file submission to the template via FusionPro Server. We also do not use the Printable Website for FusionPro templates so I have no idea how they operate. If something like this doesn't exists currently in the Printable Website programming, then maybe it should be included in a future update. Something like calling a FP template once for approval purposes, then, after a button is selected by the customer stating they approve the supplied layout appearance and content, either alter used instance file and resubmit it to the template, or allow to use a different .cfg file with different settings (one "proof" the other for "final"). Hope this gives you some ideas. Good Luck --- David A.

The business card is 2-sided. Everything on the front of the card is variable and will need to compose and print. The back of the business card is completely static and is on the shell that the variable front will print on. Therefore the back of the card needs to preview on the Web to Print store so that the client sees the back and knows that they are ordering the correct business card version. But, the back does not need to compose when the final art is pulled from online to print. Does anyone know of a way to use a Call Back Rule or Page Usage feature in order to have the back preview when the customer views the PDF, but not compose when we pull the PDF for Production? Any suggestions would really be appreciated. Thanks so much! -- Nicola DosSantos Ambit Press / Minuteman Press of Cambridge Five Cambridge Center Cambridge, MA 02142 Tel: 617.876.3688 Fax: 617.876.3896 www.ambitpress.com Please send all jobs to [EMAIL PROTECTED] +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+- FusionPro 5.0 Now Available!
