You will have to apply flattener settings that flatten the background PDF - I use PDF 1.4 specs to avoid this.. Variable and transparency ain't there yet... This is an understatement. Postscript, as a page description language, does not do transparency. It simply suppresses printing of an object. More difficult, and more common, is translucency. It can 'fake' it, but, doing so puts translucency object floating in a separate postscript layer on top of the page layout before printing, and, as you probably know, variable data MUST be on the uppermost layer of the layout to work properly. As a general rule of thumb, transparency variable data are mutually exclusive. To be more specific - The PostScript language has limited support for full (not partial) transparency, depending on the PostScript level. Level 1 PostScript offers transparency via two methods: * A one-bit (monochrome) image can be treated as a mask. In this case the 1-bits can be painted any single color, while the 0-bits are not painted at all. This technique cannot be generalized to more than one color, or to vector shapes. * Clipping paths can be defined. These restrict what part of all subsequent graphics can be seen. This can be used for any kind of graphic, however in level 1, the maximum number of nodes in a path was often limited to 1500, so complex paths (e.g. cutting around the hair in a photograph of a person's head) often failed. Level 2 PostScript adds no specific transparency features. However, by the use of patterns, arbitrary graphics can be painted through masks defined by any vector or text operations. This is, however, complex to implement. In addition, this too often reached implementation limits, and few if any application programs ever offered this technique. Level 3 PostScript adds further transparency option for any raster image. A transparent color, or range of colors, can be applied; or a separate 1-bit mask can be used to provide an alpha channel. Encapsulated PostScript EPS files contain PostScript, which may be level 1, 2 or 3 and make use of the features above. A more subtle issue arises with the previews for EPS files that are typically used to show the view of the EPS file on screen. There are viable techniques for setting transparency in the preview. For example, a TIFF preview might use a TIFF alpha channel. However, many applications do not use this transparency information and will therefore show the preview as a rectangle. A semi-proprietary technique pioneered in Photoshop and adopted by a number of pre-press applications is to store a clipping path in a standard location of the EPS, and use that for display. In addition, few of the programs that generate EPS previews will generate transparency information in the preview. Some programs have sought to get around this by treating all white in the preview as transparent, but this too is problematic in the cases where some whites are not transparent. More recently, applications have been appearing that ignore the preview altogether; they therefore get information on which parts of the preview to paint by interpreting the PostScript. Starting with version 1.4 of the PDF standard, transparency (including translucency) is supported. This is a very complex model, requiring over 100 pages to document. A key source of complication is that PDF files may contain objects with different color spaces, and blending these is tricky. PDF supports many different blend modes, not just the most common averaging method. In addition, the rules for compositing many overlapping objects allow choices, such as whether a group of objects are blended before being blended with the background, or whether each object in turn is blended into the background. Adobe Acrobat 5.0 was the first to support PDF 1.4 and, hence, transparent PDF files. Transparency in PDF was carefully designed not to cause errors in PDF viewers that did not understand it, they would simply display all elements as fully opaque. This was a two-edged sword. On the one hand, it reduced errors and complaints about errors; on the other hand it meant people with older viewers, PDF printers, etc. might print something completely different from the original design, increasing complaints about incorrect output. 2. Check in your FusionPro fonts folder for an error.txt file and see if the font is the culprit. Too many (and how many that is depends on a lot of things) can cause issues.. Another issue may be the difference

[fusionpro] RE: Preview Longest and Shortest Records
I agree there is no simply way of doing this with returns, paragraphs, multiple fields, and... However, I am sure if someone wants to get really fancy they could write a JavaScript rule to do this. And then, only run the rule when you want to see that specific case. The reason we do not have this, probably coincides the features we *do* have to help text fit, flow text, or to say text is not fitting a frame. The paragraph and text frame would have to be populated by one rule. Another rule would basically do a full composition and check the longest/shortest, skipping every record. Then on the last record, the best/worst case would be rendered to a record. You can get trickier or stay simply depending on what you wish to accomplish. For example there is a difference between how many characters are printed and how may character a return tagged text may have, if there are tags in the text. I have not actually tried this, but conceptually should work. If someone gets it to work, send it to me and I will give it to someone to put up on the knowledge-base. -- Brian Ray +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+- Calling all FP Web Users!

Make sure the drop-down on this window says Filter dropdown value on drop-down selection and hit the button Add Rule Instance. Then you will select the address and the phone to be used with it and hit enter. Continue doing this until you have created a rule for every address and phone combination.

[EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: would tabs work in your situation? have you tried them? -heather +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+- I tried tabing; The problem is that every field is optional and when the lines shift (Compress when empty) The tabing sequence is wrong. It would be nice if FusionPro supported the unusally shaped text boxes that InDesign creates (This is how the layout was created originally by the designer. Allowing the text edge to form an angle.)

[fusionpro] RE: Help - Line Indent Paragraph Rule
Nicola,
Had a chance to think about this for a while, and I came up with something you
can use. It's not simply one rule, but a rule that calls a function. In your
text box, simply make sure that you allow it to remove empty lines, and
everything should come out fine.
Here's the function that I call tabCount and is put into the javaScript Global
area...
function tabCount(xline,str) {
var dataOut = '';
var s = str;
for (x=1;xxline;x++) {
dataOut += 't';
}
dataOut += s;
return dataOut;
}
Here's the text rule that I call tabbedLineOut that you place into the text
box...
lineNbr = 0;
strOutput = 'p
tabstops=0;900,Left,,;1800,Left,,;2700,Left,,;3600,Left,,;4500,Left,,;5400,Left,,;';
if (Field(Name) != ) {
lineNbr++;
strOutput += 'br' + tabCount(lineNbr, Field(Name));
}
if (Field(Title) != ) {
lineNbr++;
strOutput += 'br' + tabCount(lineNbr, Field(Title));
}
if (Field(Address) != ) {
lineNbr++;
strOutput += 'br' + tabCount(lineNbr, Field(Address));
}
if (Field(Phone) != ) {
lineNbr++;
strOutput += 'br' + tabCount(lineNbr, Field(Phone));
}
if (Field(Fax) != ) {
lineNbr++;
strOutput += 'br' + tabCount(lineNbr, Field(Fax));
}
if (Field(E-mail) != ) {
lineNbr++;
strOutput += 'br' + tabCount(lineNbr, Field(E-mail));
}
if (Field(Web) != ) {
lineNbr++;
strOutput += 'br' + tabCount(lineNbr, Field(Web));
}
return strOutput;
You need to select Treat as tagged string in the rule editor. Also, you may
need to play with the tabstop settings a bit to get exactly the look you want.
These are currently set to increase by .125 (9 pts) with each successive tab.
Whether you are closing from the top down or the bottom up, this works. Give it
a try, and don't be confused by any line breaks in the rule as you're reading
it, that's probably just the way e-mail sends it.
Good Luck,
---
