The aspect that is confusing me is that I have 40 pdfs. Each 2 pages.
Simple 4.25 x 6 postcards. Currently I have a simple graphic switch rule
set. My field in the data file is called PDF so I just have a switch for
that field. Is there any way to incorporate the switch statement in the
graphic rule with the Text rules?. I know nothing about scripting and I am
usually stuck just following what ever the prebuilt GUI's let me.
